I don’t think it would work as well as there is no AVX or AVX2 on those older CPUs unfortunately.

My points are about what it’s like current with removable batteries in cameras with current technology. Battery usage is dependant on usage to some extent. For casual use my cameras last weeks on a battery and even shooting all day e.g. in

Both of those things are also important in cameras, there is even sites that compare the size such as https://camerasize.com/ . Cameras have got smaller in recent years and it makes the size makes a big difference to whether

It’s been long enough that people of forgotten what’s it’s like. Cameras still have replaceable batteries, there are several benefits: I can have two (or more) batteries, if it runs out I just change it. I don’t need walk around with a USB

The battery in my iPhone 11 pro (6.5 years old) is still basically fine as long as I charge it every day. None of my previous smart phones were able to keep enough charge to be useful after 3-4 years.

The title of site should probably have "for gaming" at the end as it doesn't consider GPUs for compute such as the A100 or the GTX 580 3GB that AlexNet was trained on.

Waterfox is dependant on Firefox still being developed. Mozilla are adding these features to try to stay relevant and keep or gain market share. If this fails, and Firefox goes away, Waterfox is unlikely to survive.

First off I’d say you can run models locally at good speed, llama3.1:8b runs fine a MacBook Air M2 with 16GB RAM and much better on a Nvidia RTX3050 which are fairly affordable. For OpenAI, I’d assume that a GPU is dedicated to your task fr

Palm was the market leader, it would have been the obvious choice. Palm had been around since 1996 and by 1998 had sold 30 million devices [1]. PocketPC didn’t come out until 2000, in 2001 they had only sold 1.25 million devices, equating t

The industry was already moving away from the big 64 bit SMP machines made Sun, SGI & IBM. In many cases a cluster of 32bit x86 machines made more sense than one expensive big machine with high priced support contracts and parts. 32 bit

The Sony RX100 series would be in most top lists. Though personally I'm not sure why they went with a slower lens from the mark 6 onwards. The ZV1 continues with the a similar lens from earlier models. I have the RX100 mark iii, that&#

With podman there is no daemon, everything is running as you. The standard setup for docker has a daemon running as root, which means when you start a container it has root privileges.

A fast charger has AC-DC converter provide DC power to car, which is expensive. Slow chargers are AC, which are very cheap in comparison.

I think it’s a number of things. Interchangeable lens cameras now all have video features and increasingly most of the improvements are in that area. When SLRs are used for video the mirror needs to be flipped up and auto-focus system that

Additionally, in the 2000s we had IE-only webapps, meaning that when companies only cared about Windows clients, they still thought making webapp was a better way to reach their customers than a Win32 app.

I think the main reason is distribution. Desktop apps were/are difficult to distribute. To get an desktop app into organisation, you either needed to tell people to install something, and they need disk space, RAM, different versions o

It might be a problem in the graphics driver, in which case AMD would need to solve it.

Sony's SLRs didn't have a optical viewfinder anyway and haven't done for models released in the last 10 years (a580 was the last one with a optical viewfinder).

Rates for new installations are much lower. Complicated to work it out, but seem to be around 4p/kwh. Also, the landlord would not benefit from any feed in tariff as the tenant pays the electric bill and would receive any feed in tarif

The owner would be the landlord, there is no benefit to them installing solar panels unless it increases the rental value to pay for them, it likely doesn't. Solar panels don't add value to a house and may decrease it. [1] Also th
