Rough-faced shag? Sounds like an average Friday, innit

Bro casually living in a sauna fr 💀

96C is hardly room temperature though.

So is it Jew York or Jew Mexico?

Almost literal self-suck

The thing is, this is happening precisely because manufacturers are giving a flying fuck. They’re seeing that the AI bubble is about to burst, and that this increased demand won’t last for long. So why spend tons of money on expanding production capacity when said capacity wouldn’t even be used?

Not to mention that the current pricing bump is entirely on the OEMs, not the ODMs (ODM here being the DRAM manufacturers, OEMs being the RAM module manufacturers). OEMs have already bought and paid for the DRAM they’re selling right now, as it takes generally 2-3 months from manufacturing for the product to hit the shelves, and DRAM modules are usually bought at least 6 months, but usually 12-18 months ahead. Meaning these fuckers bought the DRAM cheap, saw the possibility of there being scarcity in the future, took a guess on how much they will need to inflate prices to reduce demand… And immediately jumped to those prices because if morons will pay £1000 for 64GB of RAM instead of £200, even though the production cost is still at £50… Well that’s just “good business” to maximise profits, innit?

That’s actually somewhat of a Safari bug.

Safari has this tendency of opening videos in full screen, if the video is natively embedded (not using a third party video player component), is set to auto play, and isn’t flagged specifically for not opening automatically in full screen (this is a Safari specific flag that no other browser requires as no other browser has this stupid default behaviour).

Fortunately bad quality DRAM can be found out much quicker than bad quality capacitors.

Not really. DRAM at its core is not even useful without a controller that actually provides managed access to it. Any backdoor would need to be either in the controller or a layer above for it to be functional. And controllers aren’t the issue, DRAM chips are.

You fight government overreach by civil disobedience, not by corporatist overreach in the same manner.

If you give a free pass to corporations disobeying laws just because you personally dislike those laws, soon you’ll find all regulations are pointless because no corporation follows them…

Also, there’s no such thing as “governmental overreach” in a well working system that is FOR the people and BY the people. You elect the representatives, you have a say in what laws get passed. I do agree that we could do with a refresher because the current forms of representative democracy are breaking thanks to (primarily right wing) political false marketing with no repercussions, and nowadays we do have a way to have people give direct input on laws and regulations before they get passed, but that doesn’t negate the fact that the government isn’t supposed to be some shady ruler class but rather a form of communal governance.

Threats do work when delivered properly. See how the EU forced Apple into moving to USB-C or opening up sideloading/alternate app markets.

You just need to have weight to throw around behind your threats. The EU has weight. The UK alone? Hah.

I’d honestly be so much happier if it was a permission request similar to e.g. accessing location or microphone access, for a number of reasons:

• would be easier to manage as it would end up being a single interface handled by the browser instead of a per-website implementation
• no differently worded, intentionally vague bullshit options that are designed to entrap the user
• no struggle finding the enable/disable option after clicking either accept or decline
• the ability to automatically provide a default answer that gets around to the fucking popup blocking 2/3 of the page

That’s incredibly selfish of her.

In this age when the skill of bean-pleasing is a dying form of art, masters of the skill must be shared. It is known.

Look at the bright side, she can listen to every song now as if it was her first time.

In fact she can do it multiple times!
