Is it indicated somewhere in this article, or somewhere else, that the dies are not programmed with a unique serial while still as part of a whole wafer?

I find the pin description and internal schematic a bit lacking on this website. Pin 5 isn't shown internally connected to the voltage divider, and is simply described as "affecting the timing".

I'm confused about your "no" here. The comment to which you're replying is clarifying misleading wording, but your comment is an opinion on what should happen.

Fair enough, if that's what you prefer than you might as well, it's more of a personal preference. My main monitor is an ultra-wide, so it ends up using less than 20% of the total width. Though I can see it being tough to have a g

While the article is interesting, I find the layout of this website infuriating. A narrow strip of text, each line holding ~a dozen words makes it so much longer vertically than it needs to be, on desktop. I ended up using Inspect Element t

I'd enjoy watching Facebook make a miserable decline into obscurity. In the last couple years I've moved away from using Facebook Messenger to keep in touch with people, and I don't remember the last time I've opened Fac

I hope it does. It should be a mark against a clothes dryer that it claims to use AI (unless it actually does, wherein I don't see a possible benefit, and wouldn't buy that anyways). Avoid buying products that pointlessly market

Philosophy isn't relevant here, this is talking about science and theorizing about the function of real structures in our brains.

Great, their direction with Windows has been irritating enough that I've left and don't plan to come back to it. I can't understand the perspective of whatever executive decided to shoehorn AI features into Windows in the way

That's how the spending for anything work out when you have a wide spread in cost. This feels like a very unfair way to present a stat, blaming "people" for consuming more health care resources.

Because there are sometimes interesting things that get thrown in the garbage. The author clearly doesn't care about the product as a product (otherwise they'd have bought one new, and this article would be completely different)

This is the sort of simulation/game, like Dwarf Fortress (especially older versions) where I don't have the slightest idea what's going on, or how to make things happen, but am still having plenty of fun.

"I beg [...] for" is a common figure of speech, not specifically legal terminology, but it's not actual "begging". The first-person part of that phrase is important context.

The use of "begs" in that title it a bit dramatic. Sure Google is being childish, but that's just making a more inflammatory headline.

That's not feasible. Have a look at the equation at the bottom of that page. With 15 candies, this grows to the order 10^41.

In Canada, phone locking has been banned since 2017, with free unlocking being available to phones purchased before that. You can still get cheaper/free phones with your plan, but it won't be locked to that carrier, that would be

The issue with small fines is that they can very easily be cheaper than doing the right thing. If you saved money by stealing breakfast every morning for a year, and the only punishment was a fine for the cost of 5 breakfasts, then there&

That's fair, but it'll keep individuals from ending up clicking to so many junk sites. And the more people using search engines that allow them to fight back against enshittification, the better.

I'll take this chance to plug Kagi Search (a paid search engine), that I recently switched to, and have been loving. It's nice to actually be able to say "Hey, this site is trash, don't show it/de-rank it for me.&qu

Just changing your IP address is far from the only reason to use a VPN. Personally, I'd consider it more of a secondary effect. If you're on an untrusted network, it lets you pipe your data out to another location. I'm not

Maple syrup is not easily substituted by anything. Table syrup doesn't taste right, and the things you list cover completely different niches.

It seems like a fun idea, though I can't see any situation where it'd be useful to me, whatever it is. But then you add on the marketing, and it just seems like a sketchy startup. The TM mark on kernel (and reusing the term kernel

That's my biggest problem with personally enjoying RISC-V. I'd love to play with an application-class RISC-V processor, writing an OS for it and the like, but I'm waiting on a chip that's publicly well-documented in Engl
