The Hackernews snark would likely be worse had they called it 'bureau'.

Depending on how you build it, you could run homeassistant next to your smb, which lends itself to all sorts of add-ons such as calibre-web for displaying eBooks and synchronizing progress. Of course, gitea and surroundings, or similar ci&#

In your opinion, what would instead justify the total cost of devoting 10'000 people's lives to basic research?

That is equivalent to a continuous draw of 150 MW. Not great, not terrible. Far less power than those projected gigawatt data centers that are surely the one thing keeping AI companies from breaking even.

How's AMD's engineering support these days? I've heard through the grapevine that many laptops were mostly engineered by intel engineers, creating a natural moat because the laptop brands are used to not having to do much PCB

I agree insofar as the motor is not a Big Ticket Item, opposed to ICE cars where the engine block is going to be 10% or more. Tesla (I know) claimed a 30kg (?) weight loss on their Cybertruck (I know) just from moving their 12V systems to 4

To me the real question is what kind of trust has eroded that Americans stopped electing smart people into office.

That explains so much. Done to well for a goof channel, eclectic assortment of skills ("tactical garden trowel" vs fully equipped metal shop vs perfect video production), all fat trimmed off the videos. I kinda want tvtropes to pu

Write it as a children's book. A literal ELI5. (Knowing, of course, that it will still be read mainly by engineers. But that's the charm.)

Chiron still has that Piëch handwriting on it. It's driveable enough to take your wife to the opera. Full regulatory compliance, low wind noise at high speeds, all that. I don't want to say it is compromised, but it's not as

My guess is automated surveillance, which is also where this whole play has to be headed.

Has the research aspect ever been more than a fig leaf and a "might as well"? Strong parallel to rockets and high-altitude planes used for atmospheric research ...

I've also learned the hard way to Google "AM4 main board tier list" before buying. Some boards can run a 5950X in name only, while others can comfortably run it close to double its spec power all day. VRMs are a real differen

I don't even think it's cynical anymore to assume that this is the entire reason why Meta are pursuing this. They see themselves in a race to produce the most radical, most efficient machine that produces the most effective addict

I can't imagine there being enough information for true fingerprinting of individual devices. With ten million iPhones being made per month, surely the blur patterns have to have some overlap?

It's the same with military sites in France, where satellite images are blurred but you still get street view, and if that doesn't exist, you can still look at ground level photos, like so https://maps.app.goo.gl/K

Needs a PCIe bifurcation chip on the main board for all we know. Compatibility is going to be fun .

On my Fenix 6, Bluetooth volume control broke after a few years, and now the volume slider does nothing, which the hivemind confirmed. So, it is in fact worse than not getting upgrades, the software actually deteriorated over its lifecycle.

I've seen US startup people deal with manufacturing. There is a class gap that leaves no real space for skilled blue-collar work to exist and also be business critical, and fully integrated into the team. That is how a three-week tur

The recent qwen3 models run fine on CPU + GPU, and so does gpt-oss. LM Studio and Ollama are turnkey solutions where the user has to know nothing about memory management. But finding benchmarks for these hybrid setups is astonishingly diffi

I can't see community-hosting taking off. I do not trust anybody telling me about E2E encryption that I can not prove. I barely trust Google . I trust the long bearded neighborhood nerd much less than most companies. Even if I proba

That was the moment the veil was lifted. There's a model Y with The Sticker on it in my street, introduced years after he showed his colors like that. No, dear neighbor, when you bought that car, you knew.
