So how many of the 900 are they vulnerable to?
You can do it but using a junk second computer with no hard drive, a slow CPU and little memory.
This is the thin-client concept and it has been in use going all the way back to mainframes. It lost popularity when personal computers- PCs- got cheap.
Works like this:
The thin client BIOS is set to boot over the network. It locates your desktop, downloads a small OS and displays a login, to your remote desktop.
From there, it’s passing through the keyboard and mouse input to remote server and displaying the output. The real CPU work is all handled by the server.
The whole Edubuntu distro was built around this design. You could have one decent computer in a school computer lap and 20 crappy thin clients and everything would feel pretty snappy and work pretty well. Cheap and low maintenance to admin with only one hard drive / distro to maintain!
If there were ever maps that only elected Democrats, politicians of a surprising wide range of views would run as Democrats in those districts.

This election showed gerrymandering only works to point. Better to have fair maps so that the government can better reflect the people.
They do sell similar balls on their site including the “club shooter”. Maybe they pulled this design.

See JMAP Destroy All Monsters by the protocol author for an intro.
Services are currently drop POP3 support. Gmail and Microsoft among them. I would consider it obsolete.
IMAP is very much alive but has so many pain points that JMAP was created to replace it, along with CardDAV and CalDAV for calendar and contacts.
Fastmail created and uses JMAP and Stalwart has first-class support for it.
This is what Mozilla’s Thundermail service uses.
If this is primarily fixing old issues, over time we should see a sharp drop off and then even fewer security fixes then before due to fewer being introduced, due to being caught by AI upfront.
On the other hand, if AI is introducing more issues than it is resolving, we’ll see the baseline of security issues being found permanently addressed.
Yes, memory prices are affecting a lot more than people who want to run local models on high-memory desktops. That’s a small minority compared to all computer uses affected by the memory prices.
He’s referring specifically to local RAM used to run local AI models, whichl he argues is unused most of time. Say if you use your local AI for 4 hours a day, it’s idle for 20. Where the same model in a cloud might serve users across time zones 24/7.
It’s a similar argument about private car ownership, where a car might be used 5% of the day for a lot of people while 95% of the time it requires storage space, aka a parking spot somewhere.
