Idk if the 75 was really that great tho, mostly in that it had a 50Mhz FSB rather than 60 or 66Mhz like most other parts. Another factor for the later P1s being better IIRC was improved chipsets.

Right... on the flipside its one thing to where it is X+minor overhead inclined lib calls Then a whole nother level of awesome where its literally just ASM

IIRC Apple is using the lower channel width options in LPDDR5. I.e. instead of 64 bit channels they do 16 (or maybe 32) bit. That lowers the die area needed on the chip for memory controllers. But it also impacts bandwidth, AFAIK an M4 ultr

As a "photography is a cheaper hobby than a boat person" I am semi-shocked you even considered it for only about 6ish percent off... Even Amazon sellers where there is a better return policy will happily try to pass nonfunctional

Well, I know a year (or 3?) Back they changed their retention of long videos, my guess is to lower storage spend.

That lucky? In 18 years AI is the third or 4th tool forced upon a shop/team, I will say of those it is the forst one that is genuinely able to make me more productive overall, even with the drawbacks.

But its still such a complex sort of beast. Even if you had 'ai tools' guessing at component blocks on evaluation you would have to have some evaluation of the result. And, thats assuming NVDA hasn't pulled a Masatoshi Shima

... how do you know if they have a gun? As a fun example I had a coworker who collected handguns. I once asked him how many he had and he asked for clarification, should he include unregistered?

Sometimes its about the layers. I.e. what kinds of loans can be tax deductible? To be clear theres decent effort into this, you can't just do a cash-out refi on a home, but loopholes exist for those who find it worth the effort.

Two tricky things when it comes to pixel count... On one hand, you have to remember that huge MP doesnt do much if the glass can't resolve well enough. On the flipside, I have to note that switching to high MP full frame makes it a lot

Maybe in some niches, but for most modern ILCs (e.x. Sony E mount, Nikon Z mount, etc etc etc) it is typically some form or another of On-sensor Phase Detection coupled with Contrast Detection for finer tuning. The biggest advantage compare

Yep. Can't even go to a local baseball game without the shit being shoved down your throat let alone try to watch one on TV.

Because the ISA is not encumbered the way other ISAs are legally, and there are use cases where the minimal profile is fine for the sake of embedded whatever vs the cost to implement the extensions

Not the person originally replying, but as someone who avoids JS I have to ask whether the abstraction you provide may have additional baggage as far as framing/etc. Ironically, naively, I'd expect something more like a callback w

I wonder what the threshold is? E.x. if one had a "dead man's switch" phone that required a passkey every x minutes, and each time you did so it set the next threshold...

Part of it is that compelling information can be problematic, in that other circumstances can happen where the information may not easily be obtainable. Extreme example, imagine a stroke or head injury causing memory loss. OTOH DNA/Fac

Your take makes sense. i.e. the GigaPress for frames but it just didnt scale like they hoped.

> A streamer / OF worker is not like that as far as I know (but e-sports is). Well Streamer vs Influencer can be different potentially, that said I can think of one example even for video game streamers, that being the AGDQ charity

AFAIR tho im not sure its even 128k, I think disk cards themselves are more like 110k and even then FDS Zelda had separate sides mostly for main menu and saves. IOW might have been able to fit in 96Kb or less.

Haha I remember how they couldn't even do transparency in MDK properly. Was a bit faster than software (but hey I suppose if you weren't doing any transparency that makes it easier lol).

Part of that equation, FWIW, is that certain countries would flood the market with supply to make any new projects suddenly unprofitable. Which sucks extra bad because if you shut the project down but start it back up you can't just fl
