The macbook Neo is a pretty powerful laptop, I wouldn’t say its a champion of limited computation software success.

Nope, https://www.donutlab.com/

Sounds similar to the battery donut labs claims to have made.

Hijacking top comment to let people know this article is just made up.

Maybe they’re building containers every day? Idk. Can’t think of how that’d blow up into thousands without some sort of VM or containerization dependency.

OK? I was just commenting on the state of the situation, there’s nothing to “deal with”?

This is just not true at all, only recently have alternatives started to spring up that even get close to the number of features and level of polish that discord has (note, discord still has plenty of issues, I’m not saying its perfect)

This response is more rediculous to me than their calling a question an advert. (Both are silly)

Their comment seemed like it was in good fun then you brought out the toxicity. Chill, buddy.

Okay, outside of the title every time they say “fastest” they follow it up with “at iso power” which apparently means equivalent or same. So they’re basically saying they’re the most efficient twice, but they creatively used the word faster like they are an industry leader in more than one metric when they’re not.

Also I have a feeling their claims won’t even be accurate if someone installs windows on a recent macbook, which is why I suppose they are also only comparing to windows native devices.

Fastest? Uhhh, we’ll see about that, I guess. Would be pretty cool, but I have my doubts.

Intel’s drivers were/are getting better fast. Their b580 remains a great value.

It really does seem to be a platform change unrelated to content or audience sentiment, people on this platform just love an opportunity to hate on certain people. The amount of hatred on display here is gross, tbh.

There’s a lot of negativity from certain users/communities on software/services that are mostly good but have imperfections. I rarely if ever see any recommendations for alternatives that actually make sense when this happens.

Firefox and Proton are two very common targets. Sure, they are both not perfect, but they are both offering a solution that does not enrich the current oppressive market leader and they do a pretty solid job at it.

Yes, flaws deserve to be criticized, but there’s such a thing as too much.

It’s tiring.

I wonder if the correlation is that these groups tend to be more informed.

Please read the comments in the cross post link. Article isn’t trustworthy.

While the pressure on the credit card companies should still work due to conversations behind closed doors, my understanding is that those companies are not actually payment processors. Payment processors are a bunch of companies/banks, some you likely haven’t heard of (one is PayPal though, feel free to make your voice heard to them), and they are taking legal responsibility for the transactions themselves, and thus actually have incentive to police transactions. Credit card companies themselves, not having those legal liabilities, would much rather people just spent their money everywhere as long as there was low risk of cards being stolen or misused.

OK but how do we know their response to the phenomenon in this article is experienced by the fish in a way akin to pain and not akin to fear or anxiety? (Or all of the above). Its just weird for the article to say a fish is for sure feeling pain, and not provide actual evidence for that.

I’m not saying the experience isn’t awful for it, so please dont turn the conversation that way.

(This is only tangentially related, sorry for the notification. I just want to complain. I hope you understand)

I bought a used, old HP laptop with a fairly capable AMD apu for some power and cost efficient gaming. Problem is that even though modern games can theoretically run on it at playable frame rates at very low settings, HP does not allow you to change how much RAM is dedicated to the GPU in BIOS. They have a setting, but its locked behind a BIOS only they have access to. Its quite frustrating that I have capable hardware but cannot use it to its full extent because of this software lockout. Knowing that they lock their consumer BIOS’ down like this is absolutely keeping me from buying HP basically ever again, because I really want to make the most of my hardware and keep it all alive as long as possible to reduce waste, and they won’t let me.
