Exactly! I’ve also had it with these homeless people thinking they can just place an encampment wherever without paying someone. Don’t they know free stuff is communism actually? I know the police clears them out once in a while, but that also costs valuable taxpayer money! Instead, why don’t we rent them spots under bridges, and in return the police leave them alone? /s obviously
It’s not even the original spare I think. If you look at the middle brake light there’s way too much room.
It’s all about class struggle. Not many people know this, can you believe that? A guy called Karl Marx said that, very smart cookie he was. I used to be on the side of the rich, but I’m switching sides. They call me working-class Trump.
I bet you get tons of free bonuses too: roads, public education, pensions… Damn, seems like this whole government thing is quite efficient, with the no shareholders taking profits and stuff.
Why? Because of the chat control stuff?
Those laptop cores are kerbstomping the zen1 cores according to these benchmarks. Double the performance for single-core geekbench, which matches what I observed as well.
To your point of how far new zen cores have come, I have a fun story from work. In short, in my specific use case, my 7840HS (8 zen4 laptop cores) was at parity or outperforming a 1950X (16 zen1 desktop cores), in a fully multithreaded task. The workload was essentially a bunch of RISC-V simulators running independently in parallel through a makefile, so the individual tasks benefit greatly from increased IPC. I’m not sure the entire gain in performance comes from IPC, but it’s probably the majority and that is still very impressive.
Also it’s mostly security through obscurity. It is just difficult enough to dissuade most people, but not actually secure because that costs money.
That’s true yeah, there is a lot less retail investment in those companies.
What is similar to the dot com bubble though is many “smaller” companies (i.e. not Google or Meta) are buying into AI as an investment into infrastructure for their company, just like was happening with useless websites during the dot com bubble.
The AI bubble is going to be like the dot com bubble I think, but with the world being so heavily financialized it might spiral into something like 2008 or worse…

Even though the rejection probably hurt, I think you dodged a bullet there.
WE WILL WIN! WE WON’T REST!
Consolidation in real-estate and the entertainment industry are why. In real-estate it leads to higher rents and mortgages, which for restaurants makes the location more expensive, but also the staff because they need to make rent as well. In entertainment it’s all just ticketmaster, which owns venues and the ticketing system. That makes them able to double dip on every ticket, since they can charge exorbitant rents for event locations, and also take IIRC a 30% fee on every ticket sold.
That’s also something you could prevent by not allowing children of clergy to become priests.
Come to think of it, that may be a good idea for politicians as well. Children of politicians often get internships and opportunities through their parents, which gives them a massive networking advantage if they eventually want to hold office themselves.
Friendly competition can be good as well, because that may be encouraging to think differently and explore new ways of solving a problem, to avoid hitting a local optimum. But it needs to friendly in the sense that you also cooperate when relevant, sharing what works and what doesn’t.
I doubt they’ll be that stupid, however, all bets are off with the MBA’s back behind the wheel…
Not unless you choose really slow hard drives, or stream very high bitrate media. Most hard drives can easily do 100MB/s sequentially (i.e. reading a large file, such as long video files). Meanwhile high-bitrate 4K video is only about 50Mbit/s, so about 6MB/s.
Man I adored my Pebble back in the day, and I’ll never forgive FitBit for buying the company just to kill off competition. I kind of want to buy the new one, but with them being based in the US I’m a bit scared of getting a nasty surprise due to import taxes…
Of the rapid-onset variety I think
