Which test are you running exactly?
Two things I would check:
Resolvers configured in PiHole
Check using browser with DNS over HTTPS instead of the system configuration - Comment on What next, power supply shortages? 1 week ago:
PSU had shortage or really high prices a few years ago because the new GPU gen needed beefier PSU.

Yes that’s what a bubble looks like.
- Comment on I spent a year on Linux and forgot to miss Windows 2 weeks ago:
I had crashes on Linux because of defective hardware but first thought it was because of software/config/driver issues. I reinstalled the OS, problem persisted. I installed two other completely different distros, problem still there. To make sure it’s not because of Linux in general, I installed Windows…
Damn the installation of Windows (newest image) with updates and only the basic drivers for GPU and mainboard took longer than installing three different Linux distros, and I’m not exaggerating!
Linux: Boot installer, choose to use network installation so you get the newest packages, maybe add or remove some features, choose locales, enter login credentials, reboot when finished, done.
Windows: Boot installer, workaround to use local account, installing files, reboot, installing more files, choose locale and login credentials, answer questions about privacy, install more files, reboot, login to Windows, download updates, reboot, download more updates, open edge (optional: install other browser), visit mainboard manufacturer website, search for correct drivers, install, reboot, visit GPU website, download driver, install, reboot…
And then it’s only the absolute minimum. No debloat or other software installed like office suite or steam which on Linux can selected and installed directly with the OS.

The graph has the form of the back of a Spinosaurus, it’s clearly superior and even showing it’s dominance without being named in the chart.

For it to die there has to be an alternative for the content. I don’t see anything that could replace it at the moment.

That won’t help with the pricing, ASUS just tries to get a slice of the cake.

- Comment on An entire PS5 now costs less than 64GB of DDR5 memory, even after a discount — simple memory kit jumps to $600 due to DRAM shortage, and it's expected to get worse into 2026 2 months ago:
Depends on your needs and resolution. You can always upgrade CPU to a Ryzen 5700x3d and the GPU to something like a rx6000 or rtx4000 series and get a big boost. No nees do go all in with newest hardware.

I saw the thumbnail and thought those were cables in a cup of water. I was ready for a meme like “the opposite of a firewall”. I’m impressed and disappointed at the same time.

- Comment on Why Trump hijacked the .gov domain 2 months ago:
Not hijack but he could disturb it. When US based organizations (afaik 9 out of 12) who run root dns servers change their root-file he could force ISPs in the US to ignore root servers that don’t cooperate. Or Microsoft to update Windows with modified root hints . Or force Google or Cloudflare to do so for their resolvers. Or AWS for their services…
It wouldn’t stop anyone to ignore said changes and it would be discovered pretty fast. But he could censor the internet and users who don’t care or don’t have the knowledge. Or if you rely on a service who didn’t react (gmail anyone?)
Even DNSSec wouldn’t help as he would control the start of the chain of trust.
There are a lot of infrastructure and involved companies based in the US. I don’t say it’s hopeless but don’t underestimate the chaos he could evoke.
- Comment on Long-time iOS user considering switch to Android - Need advice on $1000 flagships 2 months ago:
Can only agree. Had Pixel phones but with how Google is acting now, my next phone will be something else. Samsung is a nogo, I will look at Sony, Motorola and Fairphone when the time has come. Also depends on how custom ROMs will change until then.

the fairphone has it’s place but I think it’s not what op is looking for.

No no, the disc changer was in the glove box. The radio had a cassette player. I used it with one of those cassette adapters to connect my iRiver mp3 player.

- Comment on JP Morgan staff told they must share biometric data to access headquarters 3 months ago:
Our servers are in a data center and not in the office building. We work remote most of the time and are only in office for important meetings and other things where it’s just easier to work together when sitting on the same table. If you don’t work with confidential data like HR or top management where you have physical things nobody else should see, you don’t have a personal desk because there are more people working than workplaces.
So the office is just “another place to work”. Wifi and LAN are just for internet, you can’t access internal services without VPN. Makes it way easier to manage instead of heaving to different routes to maintain.
