Funny how the author immediately decided to shut everything down when he realized the number of peer/torrents still sending requests to the domain.

Yeah, your right. They are focused on NAND/flash, for some reason I misremembered them being a player in DDR RAM.

They are a rising player in more commodity-like RAM types.

4,000 ST in Geekbench 6 is a very high score by modern standards.

I believe NVMe is designed for a different storage architecture (SSD) and there aren’t really benefits to using an HDD with a NVMe (other than simplification due to the use of single protocop as outlined in the article).

I am no supporter of the aytollahs, but I highly doubt nuclear facilities are for civilian use only. They would be stupid to not use them for military programs (perhaps in an indirect manner).

This doesn’t change the fact that attacking such facilities is dangerous, but we should differentiate when countries truly use nuclear power for peaceful purposes only.

I initially read the title as “Understanding the impacts of generative AI use on chicken.”

Shipment/POS do not telling you anything about unfulfilled demand or “unrealized supply”.

It’s just how unit were shipped into the channel and sales at retail respectively.

These are the best data points that we have to understand demand dynamic.

Gamers are also a notoriously dramatic demography that often don’t go through on what they say.

That’s why it’s best to focus on absolute unit shipment numbers/POS.

If total units increased compared to the previous generation launch, then people are still buying GPUs.

I believe it’s at least partially tied to Android’s architecture, for example how you need to “optimize apps” on first boot.

When I read “open shell account server” I thought this meant anyone can get access programmatically. This sounded like a disaster.

But turns out, at least with the respect to this NetBSD specific offer, you have to send out an application.

Google disagrees. In fact, the company tells the BBC that AI Overviews have been good for the web, and AI Mode will be no different. Google insists these features send users to “a greater diversity of websites” and the traffic is “higher quality” because people spend more time on the links they click.

However, the company hasn’t provided data to back up these claims.

This is how we know they are lying.

Snapseed is still around?

Also funny that the update is only for iOS

It seems like gamers have finally realized that the newest GPUs by NVIDIA and AMD are getting out of reach, as a new survey shows that many of them are skipping upgrades this year.

Data on GPU shipments and/or POS sales showing a decline would be much more reliable than a survey.

Surveys can at times suffer from showing what the respondents want to reply as opposed to what they do.

Gartner’s Palmer thinks NVMe hard disks will arrive “in coming years.”

NVMe HDDs?

Very cool article (and series).

Thanks for sharing.

I am a little bit surprised that they did that.

On one hand it feels like a useless feature, but then it was also a key part of their branding.

No shit, he said he was wrong after the full scale invasion began. It would be very strange for him to claim that “the invasion” is not happening after russia invaded.

Before that he was openly parroting russian narratives about how US intel was incorrect and how the invasion wasn’t happening.

Many times. Want me to say it again? “Russia should not invade Ukraine.”

The reason I don’t say it more is because it’s a non-statement: everybody agrees with it, even Russians. The only people who think slogans solve the problem are people who don’t understand the conflict.

Lying about russian attitudes. 85% (with adjustments for preference falsification) of russians support the annexation of Crimea; the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine.

I want to see an end to the conflict in Ukraine, and frankly, I think all reasonable people share that position. The question nobody seems to want to contend with is whether amplifying official claims made without evidence are reducing hostilities, or are in fact provoking them.

TIME paints here a very different picture of the Ukraine crisis, reporting that it is a drive to censor and criminalize the domestic political opposition—a drive encouraged by the White House—that has brought some to believe war is the only option.

He even uses the russian term “Ukraine crisis” and blames Ukrainians for russian aggression (ironic considering how “open” politics are in russia).

He routinely promotes Glenn Greenwald (who said all Ukrainians are Nazis) and David Sachs, both of whom are openly supportive of russian genocidal imperialism.

I highly doubt you’ll change your opinion on Snowden. Generally speaking, it would be difficult for Snowden fanboys to admit that their hero isn’t the paragon of virtue that they claim he is.

I gave you a specific example. Do a search for his tweets before Feb 24 2022 regarding Ukraine. Note how he was parroting russian official channel claims that the full scale invasion is not happening and ridiculing US security services (that correctly predicted that it is happening). Now do a search for official russian statements on this issue for this period.

You can do the searching yourself or feel free to assume that I am lying in order to discredit your little angel.

Secondly do lookup on who he promotes and what kind of things they say about Ukraine. This includes individuals claiming that everyone in Ukraine are Nazis and that Russia invasion was justified by security concerns. Both messages are openly promoted but the russians.

I stand corrected, there is an example of him criticizing the russian government. Then again, this almost from 10 years ago.

I gave you examples from the last few years.

Snowden messaging is directly aligned with russian security services and their key propaganda narratives.

Look at his messaging before the full scale invasion; until the invasion he was distributing russian propaganda about how “the invasion is not happening” and some world salad about NATO and BATO.

He routinely promotes messaging supportive of russian imprialism and spreads known falsehoods.

Snowden does not critize the russian government. Don’t lie.
