It's insane that that video was three years ago, and nothing has changed. Hello Games just keeps shipping things that make the game better.

When it stops being the case, it’d be one of the biggest tech stories of our lifetime.

It’s literally just logic and is purely speculation on my part.

Apple components aren't found in other products, only their own products. So if a product contains something with Apple logo, and it's not an actual Apple product, the chance it's counterfeit is significantly higher, though o

Things are starting to remind me of the 2001-2003 bust, where a ton of companies whose entire business model was "lose money but get a lot of users" had to either shutdown or retool, and "making an actual profit" became

I assume there's no way to "prove" the provenance of the flex cables. Maybe some type of test? But CBP isn't going to spend millions outfitting their agents with the training and equipment provided to do that. While I su

I don't think there is such a thing as a "fair protest". Protests are, by their nature, disruptive.

There are people who show up to drag shows, armed. They are not usually "on the left".

Those students have a right to host the event and the other students have a right to protest the event. Behold, free speech.

The majority of the "pro-free speech"'s concerns seem related to their entitlement to a consequence free soap box. De-platforming, shadow-banning, moderation etc. are the heart of their current fight.

FIRE generally defends free speech on either side of the political spectrum, and while they used to be more focused on right-leaning speech, they're far more balanced now and much closer to what I used to feel the ACLU was. (disclaimer

I generally agree that tolerance of "free speech" is a highly-dependent thing, on either side, with hyporcites too numerous to name. And that, much like "states rights!", it's a battle-cry embraced when one side is

1. Little, or none, and it's as close as a comparison as possible, and why it'd be useful to prove your "It's all TSMC!" point, yet fails to. 2. … and there are M2 Max results above/around 15k.

I don't know that'd call a 15-20% performance difference "neck and neck".

You haven't proven your argument then, and it shouldn't be a hard one to prove, as the 7940 and Apple's M2 Max both exist. AMD's 7940 used TSMC's 4nm FinFET while the M2 used their older 5nm process. And yet: https

Yes, if you overclock the 7590x, ignoring any "system tuning" you can get a better GB6. If we could overclock the M3 Max, we could achieve the same. The performance loss of the 7590X in 65W eco mode isn't 10-20% compared to s

The M3 Max scores higher on GB6 than the 7950X, full stop: https://browser.geekbench.com/processors/amd-ryzen-9-7950x I'm also not sure what you mean by 7950x having a lower TDP than the M3 Max. Even in eco mode,

Game studios release games for the iPhone. Which means they do spend time optimizing for Apple Silicon and dump tons of dev hours to make sure things run smoothly.

The same religious adherents told slaves to be obedient to their masters, even when their masters were monsters, so let's not give them too much credit.

The PS5 gets around 10.28 teraflops, while the M1 Max, from two years ago, was getting about 10.4.

It's probably fairer to say "Apple builds products focused on things I don't care about." Obviously, other people care.

You can use non-Apple monitors with a Mac. Apple's monitors are only worth getting if you're incredibly picky about very specific things.

Apple's biggest problem may be how good the M1 laptops were. I have a 14' M1 Max and there's no task in my workflow that's slow enough that I feel any real need to upgrade.

What is the objective definition of "advanced"?

No. It's nowhere near as powerful as desktop Nvidia cards. It's about as powerful as a PS5.
