The new AMD models that are coming out later this year seem very promising in that regard, but no reviews are out as of yet.

Or just put the sticker on it but not have the actual thing in there so they can't find it?

I've been using brave search since it became public and it was known they bought tailcat. Have been very happy with the search results, and for people who don't like the simpler programming …

On the topic of mobile graphics competition: If intel doesn't decide to completely kill their AXG division, the future of their integrated graphics chips looks pretty bright with the Adamantine C…

Apple seem to use Quad-channel and more for the M1 Pro and Max in order to get the required memory bandwidth, maybe we can expect to see quad channel memory in more consumer CPUs in the upcoming gener…

I'd be surprised if it was in the next switch. Presumably they'd want to retain backward compatibility with the older switch games on ARM? Unless the games' developers can just hit rec…

IIRC the work to target 20.04 has been going on since 2020, and just now finished. Still an incredible milestone for the team who took over when canonical abandoned the project completely! The UI is a…

It's so upsetting that canonical will continually come up with cool tech, try to keep complete control over it and ideally make it so it long term becomes the only option, which people understand…

Have AMD said anything about whether the NPU will be OK for a little bit of training as well, or just inference?

Oh cool, thanks for the info!

Did you DIY that arcade cabinet? If so, know of any good guides / did you use one when building it?

The big question is whether the cooling system in the 13" would be able to handle the HS. Is there any data on Zen 4 laptop chips that has tested the efficiency vs performance considerations on t…

Not if you get the DIY afaik!

It's going to be exciting to see which GPU manufacturer they went with. Intel salvaging arc? This eGPU that can be slotted in is exactly the thing I'd been hoping they would do if they added…

Do you think there's a happy middle ground to be found then between the extensibility of the expansion cards and internal space for stuff like speakers and battery then. I think I'd be very …

I'd like a govt service where you can verify that you're a real person but not your identity or anything of the sort. Sort of like having the third party registering with the government and …

I wonder if you could use GPT3 to also do the reverse and just get the version of what people really mean, and in the end everyone uses both and it just cancels each other out

So the answer to GP's point "Also, people leave all the time so you have to be ok with an Alice leaving (or die). You cannot depend on people being around for ever to ensure continuity."…

Yeah, a real shame. I'll admit though, I'm in the camp that preferred the older version (except for the godawful monetization scheme) to the reboot, but with more development time it probabl…

I liked elementary, but progress has slowed to a crawl since the two co-founders had a falling out [1]. Of course as outsiders we probably don't know everything but the other founder's (the …

There is also a (failed) card game by valve software of the same name.

Aren't unions, once they're formed, just participants in the free market who wield market influence? The other participants in the market will just have to compete with the unions for better…

The last point is something I've been doing with a much lower resolution headset already. Having lecture recordings up really large with no distractions helps me to understand them and staying co…

You could consider getting a steam deck and using it docked. (nvm just reread and don't know how well Fedora would work, but it would satisfy the power and smallness factors pretty well and be po…

Just tried it, it works pretty well but some elements are rendered in a weird way. It also seems to not save the mobile version of sites you might see on your screen but adjusts the render size to a m…

I think where this eventually falls apart is there would be no more incentive for people to write articles containing new information anymore if everyone doesn't visit their page and just gets th…

Do you have an opinion on the new openCL implementation that recently got merged into mesa? It doesn't touch on tooling or the other points you mentioned, but performance seems to be pretty good!…

Every time I do the swipe gesture to open up the activities overview on my laptop I am delighted at how smooth and polished it is now. It's such a small thing but you do it so often throughout th…

That's very considerate!
