You're right, it's probably closer to a billion dollars to develop and $0.10 to produce. Doesn't change my argument very much.

And risk getting sued by extremely well funded corporations protected by broad scope patents. It may well be the case that it is prohibitive to get proper regulatory approval to sell such a device.

Let's say the regulatory costs add up to $100,000,000 and the valve has a marginal cost of $1.00 to make and distribute. They would have to sell just 10,000 units to more than offset their investment. I think I'd wager the world

Nice to see Intel, AMD, and Nvidia working together on an open standard. Do Apple's in-house GPUs have Vulkan support or would something like this have to go through a Vulkan-on-Metal translation layer instead?

$11,000 for a plastic valve. Unreal. No wonder hospitals are always stretched to the limit when they're being gouged like this. Think of it this way, a hospital could buy 10 valves or hire a physician for a year. Are these valves typic

This trope is getting old. Wait times are long for things like hip and knee replacements. Barring a global pandemic, you are getting in ASAP if you are in critical condition. There are without a doubt cases that slip through the cracks, and

I find it super odd that Firefox Focus doesn't let you sign into Firefox Sync. I would just use that browser for everything.

Bell Canada even offers 1.5Gbps internet and ships a router that only has 1GbE ports, so I had to jump through some hoops to remove the SFP+ from the router they gave me and get it working on my pfSense box. I'm still limited on most o

My grey market Windows Server 2019 Standard (with Hyper-V) key happily activated on my 48-core system. What's the proper way to buy a license?

Do you think a single person corporation could easily get a sales contact to do said negotiation?

Seems full of anti-patterns? Have any examples? React is easily just as magical. I'm curious. I also don't see how React skills would be transferable to anything but React.

Still no departure from 16:9, it seems. Glad to see Ryzen 4000 throughout, though.

Oh wow! Thanks for sharing, I’ll probably join up.

Nice use of Kailh's Choc switches. I wish there were other keycap options out there for them though. It's such a shame that injection moulding is so expensive to get off the ground.

Guilty as charged. My stack is mostly out-of-date programming tomes that were worth reading when I bought them. I also have a collection of Audible audiobooks that I bought to spend my built up credits before cancelling.

It'll be a while before we see any fruit produced from them to know for sure. Makes sense to me that modern date seeds would be smaller, especially considering how huge they already are.

How many times does Microsoft need to get slapped with an anti-trust on this specific issue to learn their lesson?

Yes, ish. CIFS is the protocol that came before SMB, but people still use the term to describe modern Windows SMB or Samba.

It warms my heart to imagine zero air travel CO2 emissions for a few weeks.

I agree that the shipping dates would have been tight, but given Apple's relationship with AMD (like getting certain Navi cards in the MacBook Pro months before they shipped anywhere else) I think they could have pulled it off. The Mac

I think that ship sailed when they they shipped the new Mac Pro. That would have been the place to start.

No one will argue with that, but my 2700X ran fine under the stock Wraith cooler until I decided I wanted to overclock.

I can understand why RHEL would still ship ancient PHP versions to keep legacy apps running, but I think WireGuard would be an easier sell considering it's so unobtrusive and has no legacy software to worry about breaking.

This really good for AMD because they are soaking up a bunch of Apple’s old 7nm capacity for a bunch of upcoming products (Xbox, PS5 being the major ones). Apple seems to be going all in on 5nm. Plus, I bet the next Epyc will be on 5nm too.

That's the direction I was headed, yeah. I do like the convenience of managing it all from the firewall web interface, however.

I just started looking into WireGuard and was disappointed to find out that pfSense has no support for it. I don’t like messing around with packages outside of the pfSense repo, even if it’s kinda supported in FreeBSD.
