      But on the plus side, now Google can track you even when you aren’t near a tower.

      Worse, Musk can track you and tweet about the dumb shit you are doing out in the middle of nowhere.

          HBM3E is good, but HBM4 will be even better.

                    If no set of moral ideas were truer or better than any other, there would be no sense in preferring civilized morality to savage morality, or Christian morality to Nazi morality. In fact, of course, we all do believe that some moralities are better than others . . . . The moment you say that one set of moral ideas can be better than another, you are, in fact, measuring them both by a standard . . . admitting that there is such a thing as a real Right, independent of what people think, and that some people's ideas get nearer to that real Right than others."

                        They are referring to the full building including seating at the base of the sphere… So no it’s just you being literalist.

                          It seems to be more of a hemisphere though, maybe 69% or 70% of the height of a a full sphere.

                          That actually explains the lack of full ‘sphericality’.

                          Oyaji was on to something. ;-)

                                Lob should be wary when getting his phone or laptop repaired:

                                Actually, we all should. I only unlock my phone and hand it to someone if I’m watching everything they do with it.

                                    I don’t want to pre-judge her but something tells me she won’t understand ANY excuse for having that on a phone to begin with.
                                    But then again she may be a warhorse in the sack.

                                      That Cavoukian photo needed to be improved with Photoshop. Tough on the eyes, it was.

                                      You see?

                                      Even with just a little knowledge, anyone can improve a photo with Photoshop.

                                        This guy shows how easy this really is:

                                        How To Make A CPU

                                        It seems there’s a conspiracy to misinform us involving Intel, TSMC etc. Clearly they don’t want us making 200 core / 400 thread CPUs in our garages and then losing their lucrative market.

                                            Qualcomm’s latest CPU for PCs beats Apple’s M1 and catches up with M2

                                            Qualcomm’s latest CPU for PCs beats Apple’s M1 and catches up with M2

                                            Apple has been doing a great job with its Apple Silicon “M” chips for computers, as they deliver more performance...

                                            Awesome. Looks like we’re going to start getting laptops with M1 / eventually M2+ performance and efficiency (battery life) but aren’t locked into Apple’s ecosystem.

                                            I hope Intel is seriously planning for a RISC future because x86 has no place in it IMO. Whether you’re an individual getting 50 to 100% better battery life in your laptop or a company saving a bunch of money in electricity costs, CISC doesn’t make much sense at any scale. But I could just be a RISC fanboy.
