I don't know about the others, but Zuckerberg can absolutely destroy Meta. He owns a special class of shares that have 10x voting power vs. normal shares, so he personally controls about 60% of the votes. If there was any way of Zucker

The actual point of these laws isn't to stop minors from viewing the material, it's to stop sites from hosting the material entirely. They're using "protect the kids from obscene content" as a wedge to get popular s

I agree with everyone else that Covid definitely lost Trump the 2020 election. Saying it would have been a lay-up for someone who isn't Trump is meaningless when we're talking about Trump. When there's a crisis people crave s

The only reason why all those gibberish brands exist is that Amazon gives better placement and seller tools to sellers who have a registered trademark. Since the sellers don't care about what the trademark is, they just want to sell on

Thanks I didn't realize that it was refundable, I guess "India makes people loan 20% of their foreign remittances to the government interest-free" would be more accurate.

For comparison, India taxes remittances at 20%.

Another thing is that unless you have a very specific need for SSDs (such as heavily random access focused workloads, very tight space constraints, or working in a bumpy environment), mechanical hard drives are still way more cost effective

This is an obvious AI SEO spam site. Kinda interesting how AI has "innovated" here by making it viable to make SEO spam sites about extremely niche topics because generating the slop articles/pictures costs pennies.

The numbers I've seen show that the peak power draw is similar to Meteor Lake, but it generally draws ~40% less than Meteor Lake when doing the same task. The SoC only idle power draw figures I've seen are 0.62W for Lunar Lake vs.

It's not just a TSMC vs. Intel thing, Lunar Lake gets 7 more hours of battery life than Meteor Lake when doing the same "light office tasks" benchmark.

by ndiddy 1y ago
The reason why I brought it up was that Lunar Lake was specifically designed to make an x86 offering that has comparable battery life with chips from Qualcomm and Apple. It's not a standard marginal generational improvement, for light

by ndiddy 1y ago
I think it's a shame they went with 2 year old 13th gen Intel processors for these. The newer Lunar Lake Intel chips have much better battery life and thermals, and you can find them in other similarly priced laptops. The main downside

Steam bundles a lot of 32-bit libraries, but still requires at least 32-bit glibc, mesa, and libgl to be provided by the system among others. AFAIK this is for ABI reasons, they wouldn't be able to ship these with Steam without also ru

This library was originally written to parse GNOME configuration XML files. It was never intended for parsing untrusted data. From GNOME's perspective, if you can crash the XML parser with a malformed config file, that's just a re
