If there were a way I could load Lineage on it, maybe. Not interested in a device locked to Amazon’s firmware.
I was expecting idiotic rules screaming “bureaucratic muppets don’t know what they’re legislating on”, but instead what I’m seeing is surprisingly sane and sensible
NIST knows what they’re doing. It’s getting organizations to adapt that’s hard. NIST has recommended against expiring passwords for like a decade already, for example, yet pretty much every IT dept still has passwords expiring at least once a year.
It’s been about a decade of me, at least, hearing that the only problem is they’re just not relevant enough, and if we just target them better/make them more personalized/whatever that’d solve all the issues everyone has with it.
They’re not referring to the issues you and I have with. They’re referring to the issues their ad customers have with it. More relevant ads mean ads can be more effective and valuable for advertisers – not less annoying for viewers.
I don’t recall Qualcomm trying to buy ARM. That was Nvidia. (though, yes, it likely would also have been prevented if it had tried)
But they’d probably have a better (but still slim) chance of getting a purchase of Intel through. That’d be a more horizontal acquisition than a vertical one as Qualcomm doesn’t make x86 chips so they can at least argue it wouldn’t be anti-competitive.
They don’t mention what the offer is. Very easily could be a stock-based deal where Intel stockholders get a portion of the combined company. That’s how T-Mobile bought Sprint.
NetSurf is a very barebones browser. It can fill a niche, but is not a daily driver where other options are available.
Firefox everywhere. It’s not perfect, but is still the closest a browser gets.
Unless I need a PWA on desktop, then Edge (windows) or ungoogled chromium (linux).
There are, unfortunately, some features banks make mobile app exclusive (e.g. Zelle sometimes, check deposit).
I have a spare phone I keep in my drawer for when I really need a banking app.
Nvidia is diversified in AI, though. Disregarding LLM, it’s likely that other AI methodologies will depend even more on their tech or similar.
I guess I don’t really see why generative AI is a necessity for a search engine? It doesn’t really help me find information any faster than a Wikipedia summary, and is less reliable.
In general — yes. Most of the time they do so by subjecting their eyeballs or ears to ads. Do you think it’s a good idea to flood AI models with ads as well?
GNOME Web stopped using Gecko as a backend when it was still embeddable. They decided on WebKit for other reasons.
I think it’s unlikely one of those techs “wins” at all. It’s relatively easy to support them all from a software perspective and so gamers will just use whichever corresponds to their GPU.
They’re being sued by the DOJ too.
Only in Nightly and not by default (you need to enable it).
Isn’t the formula for Roman concrete unknown?
Yes, though a lot of research has been done to figure out its most important properties. A secret of its durability was just figured out last year. https://news.mit.edu/2023/roman-concrete-durability-lime-casts-0106
Nvidia’s AI gambit is at least diversified to different kinds of AI. Even if (or probably when) LLM AI taps out, Nvidia will likely also be behind the AI tech that takes its place.
The support article explains the rationale.
Unchecked by default would render the experiment useless.
I believe Thunderbird is K9’s current beta, rebranded.
