One, you are entirely moving the goal post. Nothing was said of winning. The discussion was about catching up and catching up they did. As I said, the market is competitive. Two, because the actual power consumption is not 65% higher - that

Well, recheck. Both Qualcomm and Mediatek have caught up on the phone SoC market. The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 has a slightly better CPU than the A19 Pro but a slightly worse GPU. Apple has a very slight advantage in watt usage but that

The issue is obviously one of trade-off. Google pays content creators so little they have all started including ads in their videos. Si technically as long as you are counted they get paid. Meanwhile, Google is more and more aggressive with

The example you provided doesn't sit right me. If the mistake is one error of author and location in a citation, I find it fairly disingenuous to call that an hallucination. At least, it doesn't meet the threshold for me. I have s

It's always easier to focus on a shared ennemy than to look inward. Talking about the Draghi report forces people to confront that the EU is actually extremely disunited at the moment and the political landscape is very messy. The repo

What was shocking to me is discovering that Windows 11 on a managed company laptop and Windows 11 on a store bought personal laptop feel so different, they might as well not share a name. It's insane the amount of bullshit Microsoft is

I also liked the idea when I used Gentoo 15 years ago but you quickly realise it doesn't make much sense. You are trading off having a system able to handle everything you will throw at it, and having the same binaries as everyone else

Yes, fees are capped in the EU for exemple. Considering the impact on prices, cashback is basically reverse redistribution. It makes the situation worse for the poorest customers to give money to the banks and their richest customers.
