"And exactly why universal free speech is needed. Because otherwise that same excuse will be made every time." What is universal free speech except a desire to have the government dictate what companies can have on their platform?

Apple and Google are private companies. It is their platform. Free speech is freedom from the government not private companies. It's just pure entitlement. Users can install alternative app stores or apps directly on Android phones. Or

So you're saying that a large chunk of Trump voters support the failed coup attempt? And that treating that as terrorism is a bad idea. Because they're going to get even angrier?

Is money actually the issue here? I presume it was incorrect technical decisions rather than a lack of money.

Are you talking about versions of Displayport or something else? Because people want to use 4k@120hz+ or 5k+ displays. Which require more bandwidth

The problem is that the web browser runs every URL that a user visits and whatever that page links to. This means that it's a privacy risk. Look at this site which looks at the fingerprintable bits of data that is available from a web

You can get a PinePhone And install Linux onto it: https://www.pine64.org/pinephone/ I remember KDE made Plasma Mobile no idea if that works well. It's a lot of effort to become an everyday driver. But if you set

Why are you going after Let's Encrypt and not the manufacturers and hardware vendors that abandoned the devices? The source code for the device drivers are not available to be able to update these phones to the latest version of Androi

Generally these devices use the ancient kernel that they shipped with with the current userland. This is because the device drivers are compiled for that kernel version with no open source alternative. So whilst it might be running a newer

Since you're saying this post has inaccuracies, rather than being smug about your superior knowledge, why not point out what they are? Also there's nothing wrong with writing a simple post in your blog. The internet isn't goi

Apple's chip has 4200Mhz RAM. Wouldn't it be fair to have both ram speeds the same? Also it's a set of benchmarks some random person did. It's interesting and useful information. They aren't a publication doing a c

The website doesn't need to blacklist it, the browser can do that.

by Jonnax 6y ago
The fact that browsers allow websites to see whatgpu you have installed, driver version and enumerate your fonts is clearly put there for the benefit of tracking people. Otherwise browser developers would create generic classes of device th

I've got multiple container images in the docker hub which I've pushed years ago when playing around with it. I'm certain it has critical vulnerabilities. But it doesn't matter because it's not running anywhere.

by Jonnax 6y ago
A container starts instantly and uses far fewer resources than a VM. Even if you do a FROM Ubuntu or FROM Debian that's still a huge advantage.

It's funny that their criticisms of C++ includes of a quote from Linus Torvalds effectively saying that C is better but they don't include C in their list of evaluations. They say Go is the best for "systems programming"

Sorry you're wrong. It's as absurd as saying it's impossible to tell the difference between a 55" 720p display compared to a 4k one at a distance of 1 foot away.

I guess so, the difference between 8ms vs 16ms is not much for 1 frame. Though in my totally subjective experience it feels better. Interestingly the person who did this latency test also did a keyboard latency test: https://danl

Fair enough. But if you're comparing single threaded performance, there isn't a reason to split the workload into two threads for AMD/Intel and have it as a single thread for Apple. If I had a single threaded application or a

That article makes no sense whatsoever. And whoever wrote it doesn't not understand what they're talking about. SMT is designed to boost performance in multitreaded workloads. It can be thought as multitasking for a CPU core. Usin
