process node only matters that much when you are dealing with the latest system architecture. whether you compare with rockpi's offering or with apple, A76 is a design from 2018.

while i was personally working with 512 mb with my rpi all this time, i wonder if there is a point to having only 1/2 gb with the new soc. even if you run the sbc headless and never touch the gpu, you risk starving the threads for thin

as someone who did not upgrade for like a decade, now i feel like i can get on in early and benefit from leaps and bounds of an upgrade! however, this offering is not really aligned with the foundation started out with imo. their decisions

very interesting to see that they did not talk much about specs besides "oh we got the latest chip" and "our screen and lens are better". standalone vr has its own place, but for enthusiasts, and even some of their own d

with discussions such as this, and for other common AI fearmongering (e.g. work and education), the conclusion i always find is that machine learning is only making things "easier" or more accessible for thrid parties to do. in ma

reading posts saying how cheap mutton is in their area makes me lowkey jealous. growing up, it used to be ~3x the cost of chicken and it meant relegating it for only special ocaissions. i am not competent enough to cook lamb well but it can

regardless of whether this is true, buying a pixel usually meant having a good custom rom ecosystem. unsure how much that is true after the switch to their custom soc. but the most demanding users (us enthusiasts) also tend to be savvy with

i get that phones can last several years now, but it helps when you start with a good one. maybe i lucked out with the phone i chose, but what it offered for under 500 is still phones struggle to do 4+ years later (e.g. 4k 60fps recordings,

i can only speak from my experiences, but this topic is not completely represented in the writing. first and foremost, discrimination in India still exists in some form to this day. however, it is not dominated or restricted by which family

i think this widely varies between people and what they need their laptop for. personally my previous laptop (7+ years old; the replacement is over 3) was ample for basic tasks even today, but it did not meet my personal needs (gaming, deep

have you ever tried using a vr headset, wheel and/or pedals with linux? if so, how was your experience thus far, especially in terms of out of the box impression?

a massive asterix for the title - the 75% is out of the 10k or so games tested by Valve thus far. as someone who's been trying to run games on linux for almost a decade, we are still a long way away from being able to just launch games

interesting discourse around this and ads in general, from people on both sides of the equation. a lot of creator sided things are bunch of bs from what i've experienced myself. while the public perception with popular channel is that

as an avid controller user, i wonder if they keep spare controllers at hand for mission-critical scenarios. given how little waranty first-party controller makers provide (3 months for xbox), and how almost all of them use potentiometers fo

very interesting to sell it off when you still got a cloud division. at least with the recent AIaaS paradigm, they are not going to wind that down. now is a good time as any for cloudflare to "amazon lightsail" their domain offeri

having no skin in the game, I feel this is a very interesting view, especially when you are offering a managed service building on top of another. go through enough levels of dependencies, and someone who could do a few layers of the onion

didn't check lately but r/india used to be all about doing a "walkout" on india by nri or those who wanted to become one. i hope that now the discourse is more represented by the people in the country than out of it.

as a selfish, passive consumer of reddit content without partaking in even voting, i just want to enjoy the threads already out there. i see the arguments and i wonder why the way to protest is not to just stop participating, rather than ta

while it's a cool feature, i don't think it is a fair ask. walled garden or not, each company decide the tradeoffs of features they assign to their consumer technology. clearly apple has made theirs with restricting what apps can

clickbait aside, this seems like a myopic take on social media IMHO. i would like to rather contrast it with the notions of web3 and people wanting ownership of their content, or at least be able to use the platforms without ads or data har

as a player with thousands of hours in csgo, here's my take: right from the get go, the authors made it clear that each of the rce requires a user to connect to a malicious server. the only scenario this is possible is if the user conn

apple is getting too much credit for this. they are essentially bootstrapping on the long-term efforts made at winehq. i would like to know what value-add they have done besides making it work better at os level. i would be more impressed i
