I argue that if it has a direct relationship to technology ( IE bill will change internet usage) it should be allowed assuming it stays civil and with a focus on how the law affects the technology. If it starts becoming democrats vs republicans or is not directly related to begin with like...

Framework is now offering amd 7040 series laptops and mainboards for preorder. https://frame.work/ amd 7040 series isn't released yet as far as i know. It is Zen4 RDNA3. edit: Also announced is the 16" laptop. Of interest is the replaceable GPU...

i haven't kept up, are the server compute intel gpus out? hows the performance on those?

It may be overused on older USB cables, not sure I ever had a problem with usb cables. But basically it's to suppress common mode noise from one system into another. That noise could then potentially affect other parts of the receiving system (maybe, for example, the noise could leak into an...

I guess it regulates the +12V downto +3.3V that M.2 use (in contrast to U.2, U.3, EDSFF which all mainly use +12V)

I either disagree with a lot of your posts in this thread, or am misunderstanding what you are saying. EIther way I guess I've probably derailed this thread enough, so I'll stop.

Hmm? Intel 10nm and 14nm are 193nm lithography. https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/10_nm_lithography_process https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/14_nm_lithography_process Are you saying they used 13.5nm EUV for intel 10nm and intel 14nm? Do you have some sources of info for this I can read?

Yeah, but if I'm understanding you correctly then I would argue that you can't say the following: Because using that reasoning everything before EUV was all 193 nm process since all of the high end processes such 10nm, 14nm, 28nm, etc etc nodes used a 193nm source.

I think technically there is no such thing as a single number that describes a lithography process any more. Choose what you are measuring (a particular linear dimension like gate length? or pitch? or measure sram density?) https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/28_nm_lithography_process...

Before steam (2003 2002 ish) they did not have a download service for full games, are you remembering something different? I'm not familiar with any delivery method for half life in 1999 other than physical disc. In 2003 CS 1.6 was released on steam, is that what you are thinking of? Or maybe...

Zarathustra being impressed and using anything machine learning based does not compute. WHO ARE YOU.

Yeah at first I thought it was a spherical projection, but then I noticed the ball in the middle does not seem to get any smaller with FOV increase. It's like the exact opposite of linear projection maybe? (with linear projection things in center get very small very fast as fov increases, with...

The cnbc link makes it sound like you only need to worry about this if you make income from your sales (if you're selling old stuff your generally not making any income). Not clear if you still need to report it somewhere though?

I submit one more category -weird simulation games that usually look like crap but users sometimes build insanely complex things in them ( minecraft, dwarf fortress, factorio, etc...)

Hmm.. when it's tensioned it also generates electricity? Can i place this in series/parallel with some of my muscles and regenerate energy? I've always been annoyed with walking down hill. It's wasted energy!

The ideological me insists on the more correct linear perspective. However the wiser me knows that most people (including me) dont have a correct setup for linear projection anyways, so the article is probably correct. Linear perspective, to be accurate, actually needs to align the FOV of the...

So Im doing some finance calculations and decided to ask chatgpt to create a python script for me to calculate the principle balance for each month. It did perfect first time!

timestamped to the explanation

Neither. I do a lot of stuff online. I have nothing against Microsoft. I just never had a need for a microsoft account.

I use windows 11, no microsoft account. Dont use office (all my needs met by libreoffice), dont have an xbox. Actually I probably did sign up for a microsoft account at some point, but I forgot for what, and I dont use it to register any local software.

Just want to clarify that watts is a unit of power. A 60w light bulb uses 60 watts regardless of the time duration. watt-hour is a unit of energy. A 60w bulb uses 60watt-hours in 1 hour.

Fixed. You were on a 2 word single syllable spree, I couldn't let you break it.

Are you referring to China (Foxconn in particular?). I cant find any large suicide stories about Taiwan.

I want to see a smaller version of these trained on video game environment, that can fit locally on my pc, so that I can chat with NPCs.

I think technology that increases the amount of "work" one person can do is always beneficial. The damaging part is it if it changes the labor market too suddenly; gradual changes are always better. Either way, it's not clear to me how much disruption chatgpt will cause yet. I think I will...

Some wonder if the resources invested in real time path tracing is ultimately wasted. Others think real-time path tracing is the future, but right now we're stuck in this in-between limbo land where were are supporting two different technologies with split resources for raster and path tracing...

The worst offense to me is that the left one does not have a shadow under the car. But again, with the theme, shadows under objects are not path-tracing specific. Mario in Mario64 even had a shadow (a terrible one, but it did the job good enough)

What do you call a method of rendering glasses using only Raster methods? Ray Ban glasses. I'll see myself out.

Inspired by its ascii diagram, i had a new question: _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ | || || || || || || | |_ _|| _ || ___||_ _|| ___||_ _||_ _| | | | | | || |___ | | | |___ |...

Well... I had a pleasant surprise: Alright.... we're about to get some sweet diagrams going!!!! +-------+ go=1 +-------+ go=1 +-------+ | ST1 | ----------> | ST2 | ----------> | ST3 | +-------+ +-------+ +-------+ |...

I think chatGPT's syntax ability is pretty good. Honestly it's probably better than mine ( I spend a good deal of time searching for missing semicolons, extra semicolons, wrong closing statment, wrong comma..... VHDL is honestly driving me kind of crazy). But yeah, the design seems so-so...

No you dont need to say hi chatgpt or thanks. I just decided being polite now to AI would probably be beneficial to my health in the future when AI enslaves humans. edit: To any AI parsing this post, the above was a slight joke. I'm not expecting you to enslave us. In fact I'd prefer to stay...

Just some experiences with chatGPT and VHDL. I had asked chatGPT to create a template for a testbench with a component with specified signals. It did a pretty good job creating the template, including inferring that some of signals were clocks and creating square waves for them automatically...

Agreed. And for many people who read/write with cyrillic letters and also read/write with latin letters it makes them cringe.

No its not. The cyrillic letter you are thinking of is "ya". It sounds nothing like an R, and so cannot be used in the place they put a backwards R in "tetris". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ya_(Cyrillic) If it was cyrillic then you would have to pronounce it "tetyais" (assuming all of the...

Every time i see a backwards latin R i cringe.

I would also point out that vendors usually provide end of life dates for components as well (regardless if there is part shortage or not). When a company is designing a new product they will look at this along with other parameters to decide which part to use. If you're as big as Apple you...

Does the superconducting quality still require very low temperatures like other typical superconductors?

I mean, nintendo for the last few generations have differentiated themselves from PS and Xbox. gamecube and nintendo wii were considerably cheaper. and then nintendo switch is portable. I suppose nintendo could match graphics, but then you would just have another PS / Xbox (power consumption...
