Those countries probably didn’t pay 5.5 billion dollars for TSMC to build a new facility in their country.

Multiple sources of production.

We learned during concentrating all of your production in one small country wasn’t a good idea. Plus having multiple sources has always been suggested in case anything goes wrong with one company you can still have some production.

You can also get big power consumption from turning up the voltage and cranking the clock speeds well past their efficient zone. You see that right now with most 40 series cards where turning the clock speeds down a smidge gives you huge power savings at almost no loss in performance.

Cost per MM^2 of die space has only gone up with each process node these last 10 years, so unless you’re paying big money don’t expect big chip.

The 5080 is rumored to be 10% faster, but also use 90% the power. While performance has a normal generational leap, power consumption has gone up to match leaving you with a much smaller actual improvement.

This isn’t for a phone. At least click on the article and read the first sentence.

Lots of chrome, 1 VM with 8 gigs of ram. I was using > 28 gigs of ram on my old laptop so when I got my new one I made sure to get 64.

No, they made it up. There’s nothing special about the USB C port on any Apple products.

If it has digital temperature control then it has something resembling a CPU and memory. If it’s analog then it’s probably just not that accurate and will drift over time without manual calibration.

I have a pinecil and direct heat soldering irons blow away non direct heat irons like your weller (and I think this ifixit one). Once you switch you never want to go back. Which is really disappointing because I don’t think this new ifix it one is.

I have a feeling USB drives will be readable for a long time to come

The drives may still be useful, but the data will long be gone. I have a flash drive from 06 that was last used in like 08 09 and most of it’s data was gone by 2019. The drive itself is fine. But what was on it has slowly faded away.

It varied by manufacturer.

Some turbo = fast others turbo = slow.

Fermi 2.0?

Or is this going to be more like kepler where the consumer grade stuff doesn’t have all of the power hungry features, and the datacenter stuff gets them?

I had to move away from a 1080 Ti that I was having constant instability with, even after I went back to the retailer and got a new card.

Was it the card or was it something else? Any chance you have a 13th or 14th gen Intel CPU?

Besides boomers all generations are completely made up and have no hard set start and end dates.

Just FYI, this wasn’t clips of porn. This was actual movies with nude scenes.

Why does that matter? To a horny enough 14 year old there is no difference.

Something is wrong with either your power supply, the cable, or the pi itself. Are you running any hats or any extra hardware? Mine runs just fine on a 3 amp power supply under full load.

Raspberry Pi 5 5V/5A, 5V/3A limits peripherals to 600mA

5 amp is not a requirement, just a suggestion.

The Pi 5 doesn’t require 5v 5amp. You just get limited power on downstream USB devices (like max 1 or 0.5 amp, not really that bad). It will run just fine on 3 amp PSU.

All smartphones can access social media. But they also have some really good (mostly intuitive) parental controls. So if you don’t want you kid on Facebook just block it.

What does it matter if the child is on a phone all day va on a computer all day? Sure you can’t really do that in class, but what about the other 16 hours of the day?

I guess it kinda depends on how and where you source your batteries.

There was something in Australia I think that was using old EV batteries for grid scale power storage. As EV adoption goes up eventually old batteries will get pulled from vehicles, and reusing them for grid or even home scale power storage is a great use.
