    And if you go for actual GPUs it'll run much faster, I'd say 24gb may be pushing it for context, but my 5090 with 32GB VRAM is usually somewhere between 60 to 100 tok/s with mtp an…

    AC is sorely lacking in the EU, e.g. right now I have one in my office but not in my bedroom and nights are horrible, but I do read a lot about people overdoing it quite a bit with…

    More niche hardware has been impossible for me to find in the EU marketplaces I got to with searches, with only availability from US ebay, and then Chinese marketplaces. Or if it d…

    Idle and light load is bad for degradation only because that's the most common scenario where the boosting algorith will actually go to the highest clocks. More loaded cores will h…

    Not sure what's supposed to be wrong with that? The clock tree degrades at high voltage. Some theories I've seen were on the CPU requesting significantly higher voltages during alt…

    Undervolting would definitely help, and is the actual fix. The current Intel fixes were mostly just for the symptoms, as the main issue is high voltage+power when pushing high cloc…

    SMS 2FA is the worst factor because of how insecure and phishable the phone network is, it deserves to die out where possible

    Ublock origin works perfectly fine on Edge. With Firefox I've also had ram usage that was multiples of what I get with Edge, on both Linux and Windows

    Because it's spinning blades among manufacturing tolerances you also have to account for the blades expanding when rotating at high speed, and possibly working with 40-50 °C air fr…

    I've liked Hermes agent, but never used Claude code so don't know how it compares

    There are some very specific workloads (say simple object detection) that fit into cache and have crazy performance where the value of the cpu will be unbeatable, as the alternativ…

    > The assumption is simply false, and not due to the "SSD wear" argument. Many consumer SSDs, especially DRAMless ones (e.g., Apacer AS350 1TB, but also seen on Crucial SSDs), unde…

    The difference between my 27" 4k and 1440p screens is still quite obvious and I don't consider myself particularly sensitive to these things. For rendering of text/video even an un…

    The swap/memory situation in linux has surprised me quite a bit coming from Windows. Windows remains mostly fully responsive even when memory is being pushed to the limits and swap…

    Apple doesn't expose the kind of introspection necessary to compare with the data the article is about. Any mention would just be about Apple's chips existing and being better

    It's a matter of deploying it for cheaper or with fewer downsides than what can be done on earth. Launching things to space is expensive even with reusable rockets, and a single se…
