Not meant as an attack, just giving you more info on a more open and dedicated community for this type of post.
But if there was such a community, I’m sure it would be on the private matrix channels and other chat platforms for each instance’s admins and mods.
Inb4 removal. Also, this is the community for calling out mod and admin actions: [email protected]
Qualcomm I doubt will be any better, which means if AMD or Intel don’t step up in the ARM space, then the best bet is nVidia and their 95% GPU market share.
Washington State’s bill would ban offline 3d printing and essentially force all printers to include DRM to stop undesirable printing.
Because you gotta go to where the people are else they won’t hear the message.
Ease of use for steam big picture mode on TVs. It is one of the problems I’ve been meaning to find a solution for when I build my media center TV to make things easier for my not nearly as tech savvy wife and kids.
yup, it’s the same playbook Apple had in the 80’s and 90’s. Get them into schools and get everyone used to their ecosystem so they would buy their products after graduating. Bill Gates did the same thing in the 90’s to outfit computer labs in schools with a bunch of Dell computers.

AI stands for Actually Indians Filipinos
I was almost certain this would be the most vaporware of hardware vaporware.
This is just a play out of the rules for radicals playbook: accuse others of what you are doing.
In this case it’s probably both until observed.
Yeah, I usually over spec when I build my main rig because I want to have it last and repurpose it later down the road. I finally retired a power supply that I bought back in the mid 2000s. I can’t power modern cards anymore unfortunately. 🫡 pc power and cooling single rail take a break. You’ve earned it.
Disposable my ass. I just did the final upgrades to my AM4 platform to be my main rig for the next 5 years. After that it will get a storage upgrade and become a NAS and do other server stuff. This computer 7 years in has another 15 left in it.
If ifs and butts were candy and nuts we’d all have a merry Christmas.
Naw, the valuation is still $3.22 trillion. The bigger tell will be the AI only companies start feeling the squeeze.
The part that is most offensive is the lack of choice if you don’t want to fund things that really don’t need to be funded by the public at large anymore. The price also really isn’t justifiable when a year of amazon prime and monthly Netflix is still cheaper. Even if paying for the infra was the most important thing, it isn’t needed anymore with broadband internet access available everywhere now. It’s like saying we need the pony express to deliver mail in the age of planes trains and automobiles.
Besides here in the US I don’t want the government running a public broadcast/propaganda machine. It isn’t getting better over there either. The same government that will arrest you for a social media post for being deemed offensive by an unelected beaurocrat is the same government I don’t want running any kind of propaganda arm. Which gets back to choice. If I wanted to watch any alternative, I’d still have to fund the BBC.
people would switch off.
They are. Subs to traditional pay TV here in the states have been dwindling for years. With how broadcast television is dying anyway I wouldn’t be surprised if the UK would soon require a license to watch any live streams on the internet even without owning a TV just to make up the lost revenue. Governments are diabolical when it comes to protecting their revenue especially when they have a monopoly on violence.
You don’t think they are using that data to see who doesn’t have a licence to go sniffing around for violators?
Besides £174.50/year is ridiculous ($241.06). I’ve watched the BBC, it ain’t worth that much.
This is the UK. You need a licence for a TV. I almost would guarantee that this is happening
HOPEFULLY this is the beginning of the end for HDMI.
