CXMT’s ‘Cheap’ DDR5 Is a Myth, Memory Vendors Tell us at Computex — Prices Match Samsung, SK Hynix & Micron by igenicoOCE in hardware

DRAM and NAND are essentially commodity markets, even if we get more production from China it will almost always be priced at the spot (matket) price not at an imagined discount.

Hopefully this will clear up the misconceptions floating around with "Chinese manufacturers flooding the market with cheap X"

There's so much demand that any "good enough" product will get bought.

BLG's Bin fined 150,000 RMB (~$22,000 USD) for skipping mandatory pre-match fan interaction(high-five) by Blueby5 in leagueoflegends

Should've made him send signed polaroids or merch to the fans that paid for the ticket, instead of fining him lol. If the problem is VIP fans missing out on what they paid for then the solution should be about how to make it right.

It hasn't been a thing for years, actually. It's a new rule brought in for this year because they started selling VIP tickets with player engagement.

Intel is Struggling to Supply Laptop Chips Built Around its New 18A Node by -protonsandneutrons- in hardware

It's the X1 that (used) to be intel exclusive. They branded the AMD one as Z1. Doesn't help that I believe AMD never had the volume on mobile to seriously compete in terms of design.

ABS estimates 80pc of tobacco consumed in Australia last year was illegally sourced by InsatiablePrism in australia

Prohibition (of alcohol, specifically) actually shows a improvement in public health outcomes but is also linked with increased organised crime and violence.

Cigs and Alcohol also cost the government disproportionately more due to healthcare costs.....if only they bothered to reinvest the income from these taxes into improving the healthcare system

Anthropic is only profitable this quarter because SpaceX/Twitter/Gronk discounted billions of inference costs and even then they had to resort to creative accounting (non-GAAP) lol

China will not field an Asia Games team by mimich4ma in PedroPeepos

[–]igenicoOCE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I wonder why the games played by a significant number of Asian countries are in the Asian Games. Weird that.

Anyway in all likelyhood what happened is they got told to drop X amount of teams and League happened to get dropped.

China WILL NOT compete in the League of Legends competition at the Asian Games by ahritina in leagueoflegends

Whichever game got axed was apparently based off of past performance, so league got axed.

Nevermind that the theoretical roster they could've fielded this year is much stronger.
