If it's owned by Bain Capital, the data centre business is still subject to American corruption, criminality and degeneracy.

You want a service that is not owned by American entities and preferably does not have Americans in executive positions (if they are of the regular pro-crime type).

I am surprised the current US admin hasn't banned Xiaomi from using TSMC's high end nodes. For a second I thought this was 3nm from SMIC.

Could this be linked to the size of your walls and the exact "line" towards the router?

I have some locations in the family apartment where only 2.4 GHz works (two walls).

Would be curious to see the full analysis. As things stand, this sounds more like biased research by an industry group where the primary motivation is getting more spectrum. This may or may not be a good idea, but it's difficult to trust an industry association that does not include all stakeholders.

Would love a threadripper for my video editing/encoding hobby. But unfortunately, I can't justify the price.

Easier to leave batch tasks for overnight processing on my aging 5800X.

I would personally replace the top one with a disc drive. That being said, I am into b-movies (including non-english ones) and for some sources you actually have to order physical DVDs (there are cases where even "alternative" sources do not offer DVDRips or the quality is subpar).

The $299 9060 8GB will be closer to €400 where I live. At that price, it's better to suck it up, save a bit more cash and get a slightly better dGPU SKU or go with Intel (prices are also higher relative to US list prices, but not as much as with AMD, let alone Nvidia).

He also thinks the policy will harm humanity, because half of the world’s AI researchers are in China and he rates their output as among the world’s finest. He wants them using on Nvidia hardware so their work can be used around the world.

This is where Huang is openly lying. He is not concerned about humanity or Chinese AI research being used around the world. He only cares about selling high margin enterprise GPUs.

Thanks for sharing, this is cool!

Also nice to find interesting content creators who mirror on peertube.

I am curious how exactly will Steam integration work. Knowing MS, it's likely going to be clunky and subpar.

Fascinating article. We don't really get these types of attacks any more. It's all professional criminals or nation state actors.

Even that won't be enough. Apple users do not use older applications and there are a lot less niche, long tail (domain-specific, region-specific) applications on their platform.
