LLMs are largely worthless (in the context of improving human society).

Neural Nets aimed at much more specific domains (recognizing and indicating metastases or other abnormalities in pathology slides for human review, for example) are EXTREMELY useful and worthwhile.

How’s he gonna Dodge the repo man?

Like he’s just sitting there on a branch going

AAAAAAAAAAAAAA

They are still bleeding edge. Samsung is making really impressive strides, but TSMC is simultaneously not resting on their laurels.

Their security guarantees involve “we will melt our chip foundries to slag if the PRC invades”. That’s not a joke. That’s an official element of their strategic defense policy. They are pointedly tying the bleeding edge of semiconductor manufacturing - and this, a very fucking big chunk of the global economy - to their sovereignty and territorial integrity. And it’s frankly an extremely shrewd policy.

Hey look this fuckin guy doesn’t understand shitposts! Everyone point and laugh!

And it’s gonna get worse, because it’s a very lucrative industry AND it’s highly effective for propaganda.

MS will be sued over this and they will lose. This is not an ambiguous case. They fucked up. It’s essentially an unconsentual/unilateral alteration to a contract, which kinda violates the principle of, you know, a contract.

I would unironically fully support this course of action

Ah, yeah - that’s another thing. I’m a dude, but I’d been waffling on whether I should try to have kids for a while now. This has made the choice for me. I’m getting a vasectomy.

I am losing my fucking mind and my misanthropy is exploding ngl

NCD is isn’t leaking enough

I’m gonna keep an eye out on the DCS YT channels for this skin lol

So the smart move here for AMD would have been to bin the chips differently according to their tested stability for power usage, like Intel T SKUs. It’s the same chip, but the “X” versions are running at full power (with bios options to turn it down to be more efficient, or aggressively scale power delivery, or what have you), and “E” versions that just always run at lower voltages and currents.

I agree that cutting TDP nearly in half while STILL pulling out a perf gain is remarkable, but also not something most gamers are going to care much about in the context of a desktop system.

+1. Definitely some nuance going on here I wasn’t aware of.

That is a weird looking rabbit

Tbh those things are great little thin clients to leave near your couch, despite their age

DAS enclosures are super easy to set up. Disk won’t be a big issue if you go that route.

If you’re planning on running containers, tbh I would not. The required virtualization layer (due to macOS being BSD-based) is going to make containers WAY less efficient. You’re better off with a system you can easily slap proxmox (or whatever distro floats your boat) on.

When a grid’s misaligned with another behind, that’s a moire
