Frankly - every comment in this thread that touts Intel's technical achievements in the CPU space are citing things that happened nearly 30 years ago, or longer. Intel, in the past 20 years, has floundered and misfired constantly. It&#

I guess it was innovation until competition got tough, then it was squash-mode, no matter how illegal or unsavory. During that era, can we honestly say Intel was still innovating in the CPU line? Have they innovated in CPU's recently?

With Intel continuing to flounder, and given all of the issues with their CPU products over the past handful of years - one has to wonder if Intel ever was actually good at designing and manufacturing CPU's. Think back to the Pentium

I don't know what the parent comment was referring to, however it's notable how brittle society actually is. Society only works when people generally play by the same rules, ie. "The Social Contract". When people stop ad

The reality is a small handful of people - or even one person - makes these decisions. Nonetheless, even if we were to believe 100% of the people at Twitter, Facebook, Google, et al decided on this change together, it's still a small g

How are the rotary encoders, in your experience? From observation - the deeper down the split keyboard rabbit hole you go, the fewer keys there are. They all seem to ditch rotary encoders in favor of more thumb buttons.

Be very careful of typical "Silicon Valley" think... ie. those who know nothing about an industry yet seek to revolutionize it. The first step would be to find out and truly understand why things are the way they are today. They d

I don't know of any state or jurisdiction where you would be legally allowed to just show up and tow away someone's property without involving law enforcement in some capacity.

Judgement or not, you will not be able to tow away someone else's vehicle without having the police involved. This is the process. Small Claims, by nature, is for petty disputes between citizens.
