I don't know about competition, but I think we'll see prices bottom out below MSRP before the 4000 level cards come out in the next few months.

Do you think so, because the crypto craze is back in the crypt?

Yep, the secondhand market is getting flooded.

How should you know whether it's about accessibility? The `prefers-reduced-motion` feature is explicitly[0] intended to accommodate people with vestibular motion disorders, which are common above age 40.[1] [0]: https://drafts.csswg.org/mediaqueries-5/#prefers-reduced-mot...

If it's really bad, couldn't they apply userstyles that disable all animation with `!important`? `prefers-*` settings seem somewhat optional, best-effort, based on their name.

Sure, please write it, ship it, and then support my 8+ aging family members who need to use it.

Or just follow the spec.

It also ignores the "prefers-reduced-motion" CSS Media feature flag :(

Shouldn't the web browser be the one implementing css rules?

No. How is the web browser supposed to know how an "unanimated" animation is supposed to appear? Animations can be very complex, and there's simply no way that a browser could do this without breaking a lot of stuff.

No. Monopolies don't deserve credit.

They hold a monopoly of merit, many tried EUV and they succeeded in doing something that others were calling impossible even 5 years before they shipped it, not by shutting down competition but simply because no one else could. The idea that ASML would somehow be more worthy of merit if Nikon/Canon also succeeded is weird. Would the moon landing me more impressive if Russia and Japan also managed it?

Exactly correct. They're literally more deserving of credit because they've done something that to this day nobody else has been able to do.

While it's true that this extension sometimes accepts all cookies, that isn't the case most of the time. From the extension's website: > In most cases, it just blocks or hides cookie related pop-ups. When it's needed for the website to work properly, it will automatically accept the cookie policy for you (sometimes it will accept all and sometimes only necessary cookie categories, depending on what's easier to do).

It would be better if the default was to reject always, everywhere. And the "please pander to corporate evil" flag was something to turn on explicitly.

This blog post is literally unreadable with animations flying around covering up content, is that by design?

I have Windows zoomed in at 125% and at my 1080p height screen some content boxes don't even fit my full view height. Thankfully the full report is direct linked here.

Am I misreading the report or is GCP faster for network/disk, have more consistent performance (at least for network), & offer cheaper pricing? Aside from vendor lock-in (or potentially negotiated rates for large ENT accounts altering the economics), is there any reason to choose AWS/Azure instead of GCP?
