Wait, 114°C? Is that safe, especially long term? I guess Intel has margins in place, but I recall their processors having a Tjunction around 100°C

I explicitly talked about the best case scenario, which would have been "one camera pixel is able to retrieve precisely the information of one printed pixel (or several printed pixels that act as one)" From there, I simply listed

Not sure I want to use what seems like a fully-closed standard for something as frequent as sharing locations when open alternatives exist.

Isn't it on their consumer lines only that Intel removed AVX-512? Saphire Rapids is indicated as having support for it. I know that even though you pointed to an EPYC CPU, all Zen4 support it, but Intel probably released it more for th

Well, as explained in some of my other comments, it doesn't seem that effective. Most GPT-generated garbage will probably be GPT-3 based, which doesn't seem to too often trigger as "fake" (got more "human" resu

While I understand the reasons why the author think it will go that way, I'm not fully convinced: - [in average rich countries in 2030] Fast gigabit internet is cheap and everywhere (5G or mesh wifi) => Glad to hear that it will be

Sadly, the fact that it assumes interchanges to be 20 minutes makes it, at least in some cases, far from reality. At least for the local line of train I most often take (in France), the average time between trains is half an hour, but aroun

But then, all usages of SGX, not only DRM, would be compromised easily. I don't know, for instance, if password wallets use it for protecting their data when they are loaded, but that would lead to pretty bad consequences.

Not everyone heard of DRM, and those that haven't have no reason to "research". Not everyone from the remaining checks everything they buy for DRM. Not everyone from the remaining realize the implications this may have on leg

I agree that getting hacked through a browser is a far higher risk. However, the said browser is hopefully running with admin privileges, and if it is needed by the malware, it will need something else to exploit. If it was some small edito

At least on Linux, a bug on the kernel module could lead to injection of other kernel modules, packages being installed, core binaries being tampered with, which are not impossible to do in userland but require deceiving the user in enterin

Why limit your argument to games? All softwares that are ran without sandbox sadly have this issue. Any software could be malicious, not only games.

As many as you want. But make sure not to look at them. That would make them collapse into a single one. Note it would have nothing to do with quantum mechanics, it'd simply be the OOM-killer making a choice.

Also, moving things to the GPU may be good for throughput but bad for latency depending on the workload, since offloading to GPU has a cost and data exchanges too.
