- Comment on China’s chip startups are racing to replace Nvidia 1 week ago:
AMD entered the chat.
They’ve been trying to do it for ages, and they’re forever a tad closer. The software stack is where the challenge lies, not the hardware. Still today, you can buy AMD hardware that on paper is better than Nvidia’s, yet you can’t squeeze out similar performances matching shittier Nvidia cards. Even still, rocm, the ‘cuda’ for AMD, can’t even compete with even vulkan (an open source agnostic backend). So I doubt china will deliver that fast.
- Comment on Is this the end of Bootloader Unlocking in the EU? 1 month ago:
Luckily now, the hardware is advanced enough that a linux phone is on the edge of being viable. If I can’t unlock a bootloader and compile my own android rom, I won’t be using Android. What’s interesting the open source alternative, like fdroid is really fully replacing the play store for me.

Like what the fuck is possibly on there that justifies using that piece of shit platform?
Tech news. Fast tech news. It’s well centralized. Unfortunately nothing comes close (not reddit, nor HN, nor lemmy).
- Comment on Apple Vs The Law 2 months ago:
I hate to shill for Google given their recent stanceand steps against AOSP, but early Android was truely open source, and it was amazing. Then the started kneecapping it by making it heavily reliant on google services and being antagonistic against the community. Part of it because China is becoming a gigantic threat, both hardware and software (Huwaei’s latest OS). Still, AOSP has been caught in the crossfire.
