Nope, it was the NHS trying to get Tory to raise their budget... PS. Speaking of crazy conspiracies, look up "UFO Obama" on YouTube for a good laugh.

Nokia also had a number of proxy lawsuits against apple. Does anyone know if they were included in this settlement?

I believe you are wrong regarding the new Nokia: https://www.reddit.com/r/Nokia/comments/6niivf/so_is_it_hmd_...

You misunderstood my numbers :) Search "chromebook boot time" on YouTube. Checkout the comparisons between a $200 chromebook from 2013 and a $2000 MBP...

Edit: yes, but it depends very much on hardware. My old arm chromebook was very fast to boot but the Intel ones seem to boot slower: https://youtu.be/rsTyiMTYq9M

No, but it is still quite fast. On chromeOS network bring up is extremely fast. We are talking 1-3 seconds from cold boot to your emails have been synchronized. My Ubuntu is almost as fast, if we subtract the 4 seconds the ugly bios scree

This is obviously a work in progress, not a finished port. I bet one month from now things will look much better.

These guys were on the featured list and showcased in apple commercials before they were suddenly dropped. I am not sure if this is "withdrawal of special treatment". These guys made great ios apps, both before and after they star

I think @rustyshelf has removed the most salty posts, but the bulk of the story is still somewhere in their blog: https://blog.shiftyjelly.com

Would love to see actual numbers my Android and PC OEMs receive to install bloatware. I bet it's not even any substantial sums, just enough to get some beancounter to push for it.

This is very useful for quick prototypes. 2k is no money for a company on a tight deadline. At DIY level however there are already multiple open source projects doing this for a fraction of the price.

You would be surprised how many "normal" apps are not in the store... ( it's even worse in win10s )

So basically windows 10s will be the new mainstream OS and the 1% who really get computers will pay few bucks more to buy windows 10 pro(per)?

The real question you should be asking yourself is how hard it is to fake these. If I get hold of someones copies, can I use them as template?

So basically a music speaker that doesn't support Spotify? Seems like a risky decision.

Serious question: if better intelligence is what you want, why did you choose echo over home to begin with?

by bobsam 9y ago
I find it interesting that even though apple showed us just an empty shell, some journalist told us that this is probably the best sounding speaker out there... RDF jokes aside, I think this will be released as a pure music player first and

I believe you are confusing microcode (which is mainly used for complex and slow instructions and does not need to be RISC) with micro-ops which is the Intel lingo for the internal RISC operations. Register renaming is a key part of high pe

To be fair, Tesla was already at EA-level human mismanagement. In fact, they probably surpassed EA when employees dropped on the floor at work due to too much work.

I think you were thinking of microarchitecture, microcode is related but probably not what parent meant. Information about Intel internal architectures is highly confidential, but there are remotely related technologies that are generic and

Well if it is even remotely possible, you can probably find someone at XDA already working on it.

Are you familiar with the newer mips revisions? They have been modernizing the architecture during the last 10 years.
