The equity gives them a very strong position to make many many millions more. Yeah it's more complicated to cash out, but it's a huge opportunity not granted to the labor.

Diesel is pretty bad, but a modern gas engine after warming up with leaner fuel mix and catalytic converter heated up has pretty tame emissions.

It might work if we did tax the super rich more, but we don't, we often tax them less through capital gains. Taxless corporations would become vehicles for tax avoidance/evasion. The stock market is not "the economy", &q

At the time of the decision was made(4.5~ years ago) it probably was $0. Now it's worth the cost to migrate because the value of keeping that data has been proven worthwhile by the cheapest initial solution.

You're moving goal posts. I would say if they had to ask for a different SoC to be put in a smaller chassis, that is custom work, and has risk. Supposedly they are a subsidiary of AGold Communication Co. Ltd. which claims to have manuf

I don't think this is the case. It has a decent P60 SoC w/ 6GB of RAM and Android 10 support. None of the mini phones I could find on Alibaba were anywhere close in spec. Even the term you highlighted was for 3.5" screen, not

It's as simple as it sounds. Relying on a third-party means you're relying on a third-party. If you're relying on a completely hosted webwallet, then you really don't know that they don't have access to your funds.

MediaTek is fabless and relies on TSMC. I am sure MediaTek could be pressured as well. Also going from in-house designed SoC/Modem to third-party is still detrimental.

This would be great if CO2 was the only waste product of a nuclear plant, but it's not. You not only needed to keep building plants, but also designate proper waste storage sites, which are still up in the air to this day, and some sit

Not really that inefficient, like a 3 - 5% difference between Gold & Titanium[1]. Additionally the Corsair RM1000x actually breaks into 80+ Platinum territory in testing[2]. Also I am skeptical of a 1KW Titanium rated PSU for under $300
