  My computer will become Google with this speed.

  I remember buying an eMachine on credit. It used crazy expensive RDRAM

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US Govt Speeds Up Export Restrictions for Nvidia's GPUs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  They have derivatives of certain chips for the Chinese market only. They must have clauses to pre-empt such actions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US Govt Speeds Up Export Restrictions for Nvidia's GPUs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  And exports from non US, or Taiwan Semi Conductors to the OEMs. Surely they have no jurisdiction, and contracts and purchase orders are probably in place until next gen 50x cards. It’s just a knee jerked reaction of being outdone. There will be no impact outside the gamer sat in second fiddle to the NSA getting first dibs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨True love⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It says London. Odd it’s in Cyrillic script.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨True love⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Handcuffs first date, I’m out

  Thank you 👍

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The secret life of Jimmy Zhong, who stole – and lost – more than $3 billion⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Can someone summarise the story. God damn that was a long read and lost interest. What I gathered, Jimmy claimed a robbery of his bitcoins, who then transpired to be the robber?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Netflix may hike prices after success of password-sharing crackdown⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s not free, and close to the cost of Netflix.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Netflix may hike prices after success of password-sharing crackdown⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Broad catelog, but lacking in seeds for older episodes. Try watching Simpsons S04, E08 as an example. I can guarantee there will be no active seeds. It’s good for recently released content however, but will never be as good as legit services.

  Or Mumsnet

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘World’s largest offshore wind farm’ produces power for the first time⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Pretty staggering statistic, offset by a disappointing lifespan for the entire project. Hopefully engineering in 35 years will have the best of both worlds. Bet you my electricity bill will still be high regardless 🤣

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google Pixel 8's Tensor G3 GPU tests show weak performance but decent efficiency⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Better at what though. I think it’s all relative. I’ve had no set backs I can ever think of using my Pixels. Image processing I guess could be quicker, but is that really a deal breaker?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the best version of Firefox in android?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you for sharing. Was not aware of this 👍

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google Pixel 8's Tensor G3 GPU tests show weak performance but decent efficiency⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Why, what’s wrong with their chip - genuine question? Something can only get better through iterative design and refinement.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Goodbye Youtube and thanks for all the fish⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  As a premium subscriber for many years, I and my family really get value. I do pay in UAH though.

  No idea if there is a hidden funny, but I found this funny. Have a legacy Reddit upvote.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Indian iPhone plant found 'highly hazardous' to worker health⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  No greed dictates inflated cost and consumers willing to pay ridiculous markups. Casing point is I’ve just purchased an Ebac product (made in the UK) and the cost is the same as a Meaco made in China.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Indian iPhone plant found 'highly hazardous' to worker health⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The sad fact, is as a consumer we’re not protected from such draconian downright middle-aged fuckery with the transparency of who ultimately makes your gismo.

  Like food ingredients, every consumer item should clearly include the underlying manufacturer. Then as consumers we can then choose when it comes to purchasing and selectively have an impact by boycotting these companies.

  Hon Hai Precision the parent company manufactures ~40% of all consumer electronics that choice for certain products makes alternative (if ethically better) are on my DO NOT BUY.

  Absolute shame on all involved including Apple for their lack of governance (note any action is always retrospective, never proactive) over their contractors. This ain’t the first time and will not be the last.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK small nuclear competition: Rolls Royce in, Bill Gates snubbed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Any one of the three British companies pitching.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK small nuclear competition: Rolls Royce in, Bill Gates snubbed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh yeah, and fuck Bill Gates ya lizard

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK small nuclear competition: Rolls Royce in, Bill Gates snubbed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Good. Now let’s put the tender to a BRITISH company. British pound paying for a British company, with British jobs and tried and tested British engineers. Did I mention British?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Techies are paying $700 a month for tiny bed ‘pods’ in downtown San Francisco⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Rather a converted van, cheaper and serves two purposes as can guarantee that $700 does not include parking.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Eatin good tonight⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t mean to butt in, but what are those?
