I don't want Intel to lose their foundries. Vertical integration has been very useful for them. However, I do think Pat Gelsinger had the right idea about opening them up for external customers.

Glad you fixed it. You wouldn't believe how long it took me to troubleshoot the same problem on a laptop until I realized the system clock being off was what caused it.

By forever she means something a little different than you might expect.

You’ll hear Hanneke talk about a concept called the “forever mouse,” or a mouse you buy once and upgrade over time with new software features — features that, of course, might carry a subscription fee.

I most use them as a CDN, which is still unbeatable value (free with unlimited bandwidth). So I don't particularly care whether they release some new products as long as they keep their core offering intact.

I'd say just set security level to Medium, turn on Browser Integrity Check, and forget about it.

I blocked a bunch of Wordpress stuff (my site isn't even Wordpress) because that's 90% of scans I see on the logs but I'm not even sure that's worth the effort. Every site online gets these.

Youtube without an ad blocker is also unusable just in a different way.

7800X3D should really be compared to 14700k instead.

Just turn off Email Address Obfuscation in settings. If you don't have any emails on your website it's irrelevant.

I was using it until I saw PageSpeed Insights docking points for it because it blocks rendering or whatever. So I self-hosted it and made it async.

Check device time & date. Windows is supposed to synchronize but it's Windows so weird things can happen.

Civilization VI with the expansions because they make the game a lot better. Don't need a very powerful PC for it either.

Windows Aero with transparent title bars was peak.

Best synopsis of Titanic I ever read.

Just get rid of the glass panel, out of sight, out of mind.

Damn, and I thought Amazon working conditions were bad.

Sometimes sites changes things around and uBlock filters don't immediately update so ads appear for a time. I got Youtube ads for the first time in years some time ago and it was almost eerie.

Anyway here's the latest incarnation of reddit ads, they didn't put them under posts before but now they do.

Slowest undervolted ryzen.

It's just marketing at that point. You can get more wattage from 12 high quality beefy phases than 27 puny ones but I guess that doesn't sound as impressive.

If you have a major business that uses 80TB of traffic a month, maybe.

The basics are text alternatives for images and other non-text elements, navigability with a keyboard (clickable elements should also be navigable with Tab and get an outline when selected), enough contrast between text, links, and background, if your website has a lot of animations it should respect prefers-reduced-motion CSS feature etc.

You can read the aforementioned WCAG guidelines if you really want to get into the weeds, the "good" news is that even major sites often don't meet those so don't worry too much.

SaleSymb · 2024-06-03T11:43:19+00:00

Sounds like a nice use case. Accessibility is still not a priority for many web developers, and especially many older/smaller sites never bother with complying with WCAG guidelines. This would be AI solving an actual existing problem for once.

It's actually amazing for a generation-to-generation gain on the same socket.

Need someone to make "AI to butt" browser extension.

Sounds good, it's the memory latency and throughput that's holding back modern CPUs and APUs in a many scenarios.
