You and I are content with it, but these standards were never really about our individual and immediate experiences. It's about concurrent capacity for the growing grid as a whole.

Good. Don't forget their incredibly affordable and attractive smartphones and the fact that they have almost completely captured the market for cellular transceiver chips used in USB mobile modems, both of which are excellent products

How can you deem Europe as not dependable based on what mostly amounts to studying two European languages ? It's a continent of roughly 50 distinct nations, with almost as many languages and cultural distinctions, not to mention the h

At some point it won't matter that you run OpenWRT on it. Obvious case in point: at a certain point it doesn't matter that you run Linux instead of Windows on your Intel PC, because it'll still be subjected to Intel ME, Intel

It was a cool statement 25 years ago when the author was young. This "blurb" of an article gives me the impression that in some ways she thinks she still is.

Network performance has gotten steadily better during the last three or so years, to the tune of most network drivers today seeing around 2x throughput compared to a few years back. I have a retired mid-2010s Celeron platform which managed

Softupdates was never an approach towards journaling. It was removed because it caused more problems than it solved and because its complexity stood in the way of future work to improve FFS2. AFAIK there's currently no news about plans

No idea. Despite no confirmations yet on whether space debris was involved, it felt relevant to share because of the overlapping nature and time frames.

I regularly see people use cash for common and small purchases. In the grocery store checkout line, at the kiosks, at the pizzeria, and so on. Card is by far the most common option, but the discussion was never about the ratio.

You have to differentiate common purchases from "large" purchases in this discussion. I'm certain you don't think there's something shady going on, or tax evasion happening, if someone uses cash in the grocery store

Natives asking why someone has cash, and not even recognizing bank notes...? It sounds so absurd that I'm certain you're exaggerating wildly. If not, you've had an outlier experience during a limited window of time in the cou

I fully understand why the Swedish government wants to get rid of cash. What I'm saying is that the people simply don't feel that cash is in any way dirty.

A private repo doesn't cost more resources than a public one. The likeliest scenario is the exact opposite - popular public repos generate far more traffic and incur more costs.

I run at 1080p60 in 32-bit true color mode, aka 8-bit SDR in Windows' various settings panels. My plan is to revisit the RTX series in the future when there might be a decently performing model at or below 100 watts TDP.

Are the 10- and 40- series similar? Before the 1650 I had the 1060 in the same PC, and for a while I had an RTX 4060 in it as well (which I bailed on because the model emitted terrible coil noise). Neither really made any mentionable differ
