If memory serves, it has been since version 4 or 5 that they started including real workloads. I agree that it shouldn’t be considered synthetic any more.

It looks like they have the workloads for version 7 as well: CPU: https://www.geekbench.com/doc/geekbench7-cpu-workloads.pdf GPU: https://www.geekbench.com/doc/geekbench7-gpu-workl…

Sheldon Browns website is a treasure trove of information! It’s an old school website, but the content is there. https://www.sheldonbrown.com

My bet for why they're comparing it to the Intel models: They want to advertise more heavily to the Intel folks so they can more quickly reduce / remove support for multiple archit…

Not sure exactly when you had the UDM, but the earlier firmware for both the UDM and UDMP was awful and filled with bugs. It has since gotten a lot better. I haven't had any issues…

Well, I'm glad to see this posted here... I was concerned that somehow my phone got infected with some kind of malware after a reboot didn't fix it. It's concerning to me that an u…

The beauty of noise-cancelling headphones is that you don't need to have the volume as loud to block out the sound. Make sure you're not listening too loudly! Ear damage from sound…

Have you considered SailfishOS? It can be run on a number of devices (including the PinePhone if that interests you): https://jolla.com/sailfishx/ And more info about the PinePhone…

Gitea has a lot of those features already: https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/comparison/ Issues with a green 'X' means they link to a feature on their issue tracker. And, as far as I kno…

This ended up happening to me recently (about a month ago), too. I ended up having to enroll via the app on iOS versus through the website on desktop. I was in contact w/ the suppo…

If you're not counting physical hardware, it can take even less time than that. I built a MIPS processor in verilog over the course of a month or so back in college

6th gear is usually an overdrive gear (meant for cruising on a highway to preserve fuel). It's very possible that you'll get a higher top speed in 5th.

You can generally do this pretty closely digitally by taking the left and right channels of a stereo track and inverting the phase on one of them. Since the vocals are usually pann…

The simple answer is that I don't like Spotify as much as I like GPM and Tidal. Tidal is my go-to for high-quality music when I'm listening at home on my nice speakers. I've found …

Only one of those is sort of an option for me. USB tokens = disallowed. Accessing personal email at work = disallowed. Using a single recovery code is a possibility, but I would ha…

That's not a great scenario for me, either. I'm currently paying $7.99/mo for GPM because I've been a subscriber since the beta. If I switch to another google account just for GPM,…

There's a massive amount of websites that are blocked, so it's not really what I would call 'unfettered.' The reason that phones aren't allowed is related to the fact that they hav…

I wonder if there's a way to programmatically re-generate the one-time-use codes. It might be a fun project to set something up that emails a one-time-use code to my work email and…

That's the thing.. I'm already paying for two music streaming services that I use far more often than Spotify. And my wording isn't clear, but I don't listen to it 'a few hours per…

I had no idea that was an option in the first place. I'll have to look into this more. All of the services that I know of that let you read texts remotely are also blocked at work.…

I should have phrased it differently, but there's a strong emphasis on the word 'tops' there. I'd say that most of the time at work, I don't listen to music at all, and when I do l…

I could be mistaken, but it was my understanding that those backup codes are one-time-use only, and that using one basically burns it forever. My cookies get cleared every single t…

So the reason for that has more to do with my corporate firewall than anything. I do pay for subscription services that I enjoy more than Spotify (currently, Google Play Music and …
