Doesn’t effect all Russians. Just 11 Russian maintainers that work for sanctioned Russian companies. Who can still contribute, they just can no longer make changes to the kernel with no approval/oversight.

I know people meme about “Zen 5%” (sidenote: genuinely a clever quip), but most of that is down to AMD massively reducing the power draw of the chips.

If you set it to the same power limits as Zen4, you can get large performance improvements.

Gamers have been saying for years that stuff is getting too power-hungry, but when steps were made to reverse this, they collectively lost their minds.

Seriously, what are they expecting, a 25% improvement in performance at half the power draw, while staying on a 5nm-family node?

AMD were dumb for thinking gamers give even the slightest fuck about power usage. Gamers would much more readily accept a CPU going from 120W to 500W if it meant an imaginary +20% perf uplift over a CPU going from 120W to 70W with a +5% perf uplift. I say imaginary because nobody with a high end CPU and a 4090 actually plays their games at 1080p low.

While not theoretically impossible it’s impractical and unheard of for multiple trusted independent audit companies to be commissioned on an extremely regular basis.

Trustable proprietary software is like nuclear fusion as an energy source. Theoretically possible, but we sure as shit don’t have it.

Indeed.

However, proprietary code cannot be trusted to be trustworthy. FOSS can it’s just not guaranteed.

Surely you’ve realised your instance has a huge pro-russian, pro-china tankie presence?

Lemmy.ml admins me for being against Russia invading Ukraine and committing genocide lmao

If you aren’t a tankie, migrating your account could be something to consider.

Gelsinger said the market will have less demand for dedicated graphics cards in the future.

Reminds me of decades ago when intel didn’t bother getting into graphics because they said pretty soon CPUs would be powerful enough for high-performance graphics rendering lmao

The short-sightedness of Intel absolutely staggers me.

Indeed. Active users (say, used within the past month) is a much better metric.

I often wonder about this for many (especially older) YouTube channels - your channel is 15 years old, how many of your 500k subscribers actually still watch or even have active accounts?

I wonder what subscriber growth rate a typical YouTube channel needs just in order to maintain a consistent level of watchers?

Report away. Anybody reading this will agree it’s utterly insane to talk about drinking a glass of wine and fucking a toddler as of they are the same thing.

No, he thinks raping children is a good thing.

Saying “thought” implies he no longer does.

No I’m not

Yes you are.

This ban covers both the sale and operation of iPhone 16 models and extends to units already sold.

They’re getting it from there.

This article is US politics/betting news, not technology news.

Why is it posted here? This is not a US politics community.

I have iPlayer on my Nvidia shield, although I imagine it’s available for all Android TV boxes.

I’d avoid the no-name Chinese devices though. A shocking amount of them have straight up spyware on them, yet are still sold on Amazon.

Bonus tip: install ProjectIvy launcher to get rid of home screen ads.

It’s just an endless circle of you defending Russian genocide and defending child rape with you, isn’t it?

Sanctioned companies are gone from the maintainers list. Good riddance. Thankfully Linus isn’t a pro-russian loser.

RMS is an advocate of child rape. Thankfully nobody takes him seriously anymore.

Genocide is bad. Child rape is bad. I can’t believe this even needs to be explained to some people.

Why do you keep lying about this? He repeatedly defended raping children.

He thinks raping children should be legal.

He thinks anybody against raping children is bigoted.

He thinks raping children is good.

Stop equating drinking alcohol to raping a child. They aren’t comparable.

I’m being toxic? Mate you’re being an apologist for genocide and child rape. I’m not the toxic one here.

If it went to court at all, it’s not clearly legal

That’s not how the legal system works. You can sue anybody for anything. I can even use you for replying to me. It would just be thrown out of court, like the Epic Vs Apple case was.

The reality is, Apple got taken to court, comprehensively won the case, Epic acknowledged they never really had a chance anyway and said they’d go no further.

It’s completely legal.

Why are you against creating laws that will hold Apple accountable?

factor in the car’s angle towards the horizontal as you accelerate or brake

So almost zero difference. Cars do not rock back and forth like a yo-yo when they accelerate or brake.

Now factor in the difference of force between hitting something at 40 and hitting something at 80 or more.

When AMD came out with the Ryzen CPU, Intel still had a performance per core advantage, and decent PPW compared to Ryzen.

In gaming, maybe. In most workloads Ryzen was beating Intel. Shit, their $300-500 8 core models were matching or beating Intel’s $1,700 10 core.

Comparing 8 core to 8 core, the 1700X/1800X were faster than the 6900K, and used a lot less power. The 1700 was a bit slower but used a huge amount less power.

The physics is F=(m*v)/t

I.e. the greater the velocity the greater the force of impact.

You know cars have had ABS for a long time, right?

Speeding up instead of braking is fucking stupid, you’re just increasing the impact force (F=(m*v)/t), and increasing the likelihood of the deer going through your windscreen and killing people.
