No idea, since I have no way of knowing how the second hand market around you looks like. I just looked for a similar (in performance) card, not of the newest gen so there would hopefully be some used models around.

You’re re-opening the microkernel vs monlithic kernel debate with that. For fun you can read how Andrew S. Tanenbaum and Linus Torvalds debated the question in 1992 here: https://groups.google.com/g/comp.os.minix/c/wlhw16QWltI

Maybe the RX 7600 XT.

It’s in the second to latest generation (7000 not 9000), should be slightly faster than a GTX 1080, and doubles the VRAM capacity to 16 GB so you wouldn’t be in danger of running into limitations with that too soon.

No, they are in the electronics manufacturing and assembly business, not in semiconductor fabrication.

That’s what makes the entire rumour ridiculous to me

FAB

Fab isn’t an initialism, by the way, just an abbreviation of fabrication.

Me too. I used to use 1990-01-01, until I noticed that suddenly people from the early 2000s are adults too.

Good analogy. It also brought to mind the bumpers you can enable for kids in bowling.

When I was a child I used to ask my dad to input the invulnerability cheat in Doom. I was way too bad at movement, aiming and basically just everything, that I could have had fun otherwise. Likewise for Anno 1602, there I needed the money cheat because otherwise I’d just go bankrupt. I didn’t understand the income balance yet but I still had fun building economy chains.

I’m not sure I have a point here. Just remembered cheating as a child because I needed it. Probably haven’t cheated in 18 years now.

Yeah they are fun!

Also pretty easy I’d say.

Two that I run for our little group outside the ones you mention are Space Engineers and Valheim

Edit: Space Engineers is a little annoying though, you either have to use some emulated / translated setup, (I think I saw some being cobbled together by others), or you have to run a Windows Server VM.

Yes there is also device managment for them. Our company uses Jamf. Not sure how it compares to AD group policies in power but some restrictions, settings and updates get pushed on the regular.

I wonder how long it will take until they all start using DoH and conveniently make the TV fail if it’s blocked…

But it does say right on that page:

Take note that the network request logger in uBO is a forward-looking logger: this means only future requests can be logged.

In the spirit of efficiency, uBO will log entries IF AND ONLY IF the logger is opened. Otherwise, if the logger is not opened, no CPU/memory resources are consumed by uBO for logging purpose.

So much.

• Window Management, especially fullscreen
• Alt Tabbing Behaviour
• Default Keyboard Layout
• The Dock with its forced defaults (Finder leftmost, Trash rightmost etc)
• No volume control over HDMI
• Power Management (no manual hibernate, closing lid always sleeps)
• File System Support
• The reactions that auto trigger on webcam
• The Global Menu
• Unchangable limit to virtual desktops
• Default apps being hard to change in some cases (mailto: links for example)
• The weird software installation process with dragging icons to a special folder
• That I can’t temporarily disable a system management profile
• The way the BSD tools are slightly different than the GNU ones, with grep slower for certain patterns
• No Package Manager by default (unless you count the App store with forced accounts)
• Weird filesystem setup, far from FHS

I have installed various pieces of third party software to fix some of them, but still, those are things I dislike about macOS.

No, instead I’m forced to use macOS at work.

And Microsoft Teams, which is terrible, but somehow still better than Cisco Webex, which we had before.

Don’t use SSDs for a server…

lol

I ordered an S10 tab, paid my first rate, they finally try to order it

Who is “they” in this? Some sort of intermediary you were using?

I take issue with this forced distinction they are making

Micron, like Samsung and SK Hynix, already supplies memory chips directly to third-party brands such as G.Skill and ADATA. Even without Crucial-branded kits, Micron DRAM continues to reach consumers through other manufacturers, meaning overall supply remains largely unchanged.

Nobody ever officially suggested the Crucial supply was likely to shift to the other manufacturers for consumers. On the contrary people expect this to be a step towards a general redistribution of manufacturing capacity towards HBM for parallel compute products.

By comparison, Samsung exiting SATA SSDs removes an entire class of finished consumer products from one of the world’s largest NAND suppliers. Tom argues that this is why the Samsung move is “worse” for consumers: it directly affects how many drives are available, not just who sells them.

If you wanted you could make the same argument as for Micron. Who says the Samsung NAND couldn’t be bought by other OEMs to make consumer SSDs. It’s just as possible as the Micron supply shifting to other OEMs who make consumer RAM sticks.

To me neither are likely. The manufacturing capacity both companies are pulling from the consumer market in both cases is going to go to the higher profit margin parallel compute server market. Neither is worse than the other, they are both equally bad news for us consumers.

You are allowed to deduct the money you spent on union dues from your income, thereby lowering your taxable income. So on that portion of income that you deducted, you don’t pay taxes. That’s how all deductions work.

I don’t get how this was exploited in practise.

Even if the signatures on the downloaded packages weren’t checked properly, how would you modify the content of the XML file returned from https://notepad-plus-plus.org/update/getDownloadUrl.php?version=8.8.0 ? For that you’d have to break or MITM the TLS too, no?

The usual case for TLS MITM is when a company decides DPI is more important than E2E encryption and they terminate all TLS on the firewall, but if the firewall is compromised there would be much easier avenues of entry other than notepad++
