Looking at the Wikipedia article for the CoreMark benchmark [0] they are using, it seems to be specially geared towards testing CPUs destined for embedded systems use. So I'm not sure how fair a comparison this is to the M1 which is de

While a lot of people have moved out of metro areas, I don't think many have done so permanently. Why spend 1000s on a small apartment in the city all alone when you could ride out the pandemic at your parents' in a large suburban

That makes sense. You only really need to get on the ground and deliver food when the supply chain in an area isn't able to provide. When the supply chain is working, and you give away free food, you risk destabilizing that supply chai

Maybe even take it a step further and have standardized containers that you can drop off when you go shopping in exchange for clean ones and use those. The ones you dropped off can be sent off to a facility to deep clean them, similar to ho

It costs more for now. As it becomes the norm, I think we'll see many innovations and new strategies come to fruition. I specifically like the idea of zero waste stores where you bring your own containers to fill. Not only do you elimi

Free electrons tend to distribute themselves on an object as to minimize the repulsive forces between them. This usually means that they distribute evenly on the surface of objects. Humans are a bit more complicated in structure than say a

I love that LG is still playing around with new form factors. Between this and the V60 the line up looks interesting. That being said, I don't think these will catch on, and that's very unfortunate as it disincentivizes companies

Thanks for clarifying. Might be worth shooting them a message to ask for this feature. They've always been good about fixing bugs and at least responding to requests, even if they decide not to pursue it.
