So was I? Which phone can even achieve a 20W power draw... The only hybrid VP9 decoders were AMD's that only supported Windows, which they stopped shipping years ago (any current/Linux AMD drivers that support VP9 decoding only do

Hybrid decoders that use GPU shaders are somewhat rare; HW decoding pretty much always means "ASIC". And ASIC power draw for decoders is typically in the <1W range. For dav1d, even YouTube-tier 1080p SW decoding is using +4-5W

The $15k is after a "core charge" of ~$10k (iirc) (aka at least in the US they can basically charge whatever they want extra if you demand your old parts)

Those use a different perceptual hash that's intended to be kept secret. It's significantly harder to develop collisions for an algorithm you cannot inspect or obtain the output of. (well also, emailing actual CSAM is way easier a

Unlike 4:2:0 it works well as a packed format (e.g. Y0 Cb Y1 Cr), and unlike 4:4:4 it's a simple 2 bytes per pixel (packed 4:4:4 either uses an uneven 3 bytes per pixel or wastes 1 byte per pixel...) Which led to a lot of simple and pr

Unlike the ALUs, it's trivial to locate and determine the area of a 512 bit x 168 register file. No way would Kanter have missed that in his analysis.

Amdahl's law. JPEG decoding especially - the majority of the decode time these days is entropy decoding that cannot be parallelized by either SIMD or threads.

Sunny/Cypress Cove had lots of other area growth than just AVX-512 [1]. The better comparison is Skylake vs Skylake-SP, from which AVX512 is estimated to cost about 5% of the tile area [2]. So that’s the area cost of about 2 cores in t

That ended up requiring the ability to charge from a micro-B cable, even if it needed an adapter to the lightning, USB-C, or other proprietary port on the phone. Probably a good thing too, or else USB-C would have been dead in the water for

That would mean, at the very least, that every image and video sent via SMS would require user interaction to even see a preview. Including active conversations with your contacts, given that SMS spoofing is a thing.

No, you cannot downgrade before creating a user account in setup.

No, because of activation lock. Setup doesn’t differentiate whether it’s been wiped or not, and activation lock would be weak if a simple wipe could defeat it.

Steam can be installed on all editions of Windows 10, unlike Windows 8 where you could not install it on the RT edition. (Yes you might have to switch out of S mode, but that wasn’t an option in RT)

Only if it’s running on a separate computer and you’re passing your own mouse movements through that computer. I think it’s still typical for the ML aimbots to run on the same computer?

My suspicion is that he did have collision and comprehensive, thought “obviously damage from road debris falls under my no-fault comprehensive,” then found out that it doesn’t unless it never actually touched the road. And either no one tol

The first half is strictly true though - comprehensive doesn’t cover road debris; you have to file under collision and unlike comprehensive the premiums are more expensive and claims are solely your fault for the damage, increasing them fur

You plot two RD curves with whatever quality metric you care about, then calculate the distance between them. Also known as the Bjontegaard metric.

The author is pretty confused. x264’s slower presets enable searching more points in ME and a more accurate RDO (among other things), just like x265’s. But in all cases for any modern encoder, all mode decisions are done baed on the estimat

The cost of suing, proving damages, and recovering the money is such that it rarely makes sense to try to recover money from individuals. 99.9% of the time, a policy limit settlement is the most you’ll recover, and that kinda disincentives

More like 50 watts max, and 20 watts under normal load. The power supply can't even provide more than 60W. And gaming computers are more like 2-5W suspended, 20-50W idle/browsing, 200-500W gaming.

IIRC GL_MESA_ycbcr_texture is basically GL_APPLE_ycbcr_422, only supports packed 422, and was primarily intended for letting a compositor pass a 2vuy/yuvs surface to the overlay HW without actually converting it in GL. GL_EXT_YUV_targe
