I tested this with my iMac 5k with 32GB of memory and Radeon m295x (4gb of vram). The apps start slower than what I noramlly see on Windows but I don't have a lot of the same apps, so it's hard to compare. I agree that it has to d

A little off topic but mentioned in the article, does anyone know why macOS does feel slower than Windows and Linux on the same hardware? Does it have to do with the 2x scaling Apple is doing all the time?

Nope. This was a confirmed defective GPUs by Nvidia themselves. All companies that used these GPUs were affected. They even sued Nvidia. Here is example: https://blog.dell.com/en-us/nvidia-gpu-update-nvidia-class-a...

I know this won't be a popular opinion but this kind of behavior is why I'm leaning toward some of the ideas that big companies need to be broken up with firewalls between them. Just because he leaked some details about stuff from

No, it has extra options. It defaults to 2xDPI by default but you can choose a different resolution if you want. I often switch from 2x to higher resolution when I need more workspace. You can see how it works here: https://www.i

Source of the said citation/evidence? The burden is on Bloomberg to provide evidence. They didn’t mention this as a rumor or opinion but acted as if they have evidence proving their statements. In fact, the person they used for their a

No, it is not in the same range; RX 5500 competes with the lower mid-range of GTX 1650 and 1660S coming soon.

Apps and services have to add this support in, it's not something Apple can do on their own. It is available as part of iOS 13, yes but it will take time.

They did go after Apple, remember the FBI vs. Apple court cases about forcing Apple to backdoor the entire OS to get to the user's data: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FBI%E2%80%93Apple_encryption_d... As for Faceb

If that's true, he would've talked a long time ago. He refused to talk to many investigators from various states who also could've gotten the same letter not seeking the death penalty (presuming the guy was already convicted

Since you mention gaming IPC (which isn't really a main factor in server CPU lineups), I would say Intel is still way ahead of AMD in terms of mobility lineups. It's going to be interesting to see the Zen 2 mobile chips.

That's because it's popular to post news about Apple, not because Apple's platforms are insecure "by default". If you think Apple is the only one that has these issues, you're not paying close attention. How ab

Didn't they try that approach with DNT? As long as there is no enforcement and zero punishment for these sites that continues to track, this isn't a compromise at all. Google is biased in this situation because a large chunk of th

Well, we do have to factor in the potential irreversible loss of biodiversity from the current climate change as well. Folks should still be preserving the seeds and protect the local ecology as much as possible but they don't mean any

Key travel isn't the single cause for RSI. I don't have RSI pain with a mechanical keyboard with huge key travel for an example. For me, key travel isn't the issue, it's the bottoming out impact. A lot of people are hitt

It's not likely dust because if it was, there would be random key issues but most people report similar keys (E for an example). This redditor's research should explain why it is not likely the dust and why Apple is having a hard

This is pretty much it; it's much easier to ask people to wear more clothing than it is to take them off. Even in an apartment with 3 roommates, we'd have a fight because someone thinks 72 is too cold and it is too hot for me even

IIRC, you could still run these apps on Snow Leopard in VirtualBox by using Rosetta. It's PITA but I would still say they should offer Snow Leopard image for the purpose of having Rosetta support. I'm not saying Apple will do anyt

The other reason I can think of is archival/history, we shouldn't disregard everything we've made in the past just because it doesn't run on latest hardware; they're still a good part of our history that we should l

That's my understanding as well, we only have Intel's word at this moment that TB would be open but it's USB4 that'll have the open "TB features" and they will co-exist; not USB4 replacing TB at all. Here'

But what's easier to remove; your site or the third party links on the website? I don't remember third party domains being problematic to remove compared to the first party stuff?

Can you explain how this is the most logical way forward for Linux? For me, it feels it could be the opposite with Windows potentially impacting how Linux moves forward by having more devs using WSL instead of actual Linux and not actually

Think of the impact if the site is blocked by the browser's red malware warning UI (Google's safe browsing or smartscreen in IE) because a compromised file was hosted on the main domain. It is much harder to get the site whitelist

Please provide sources to the NDRC case, that's why I asked in the first place about why this isn't collusion. My understanding is limited to the original 2006 case where these companies were in fact charged and fined by Departmen

Questions: 1. Can someone explain why this is not a clear cut of a collusion? Didn't the same "cartel" get busted for this behavior a while ago? 2. Why aren't they under tight regulation since they have a history of doin

Unfortunately, that also won't solve anything. Let's say that I installed Telechat (fake chat app) and it asked for SMS, well yea, I'm going to approve it because it is a chat app. Okay, how does that prevent Telechat from co
