Yeah, ASUS is in an awful state. Their Armory Crate malware* really just takes the cake on the whole thing.

*It literally survives through a full format and will run and create popups on your computer without any human interaction if you buy an ASUS motherboard. It's malware.

China's birthrate is 1.15 children per woman. Replacement birthrate is 2.1 children per woman.

If each woman is having less than 2.1 children, the population falls.

Heavily underutilized for now.

China has a birthrate of 1.15 children per woman. When is this later time you allude to when there will be more people to utilize the heavily underutilized network?

China has quite a number of trains already. Arguably they overbuilt their train network as much of it is heavily underutilized.

A lighthouse uses the same lens, just with the light coming from the inside. Since this is old knowledge, what is the drawback? Why isn't this widespread?

My completely uninformed guess:

  • The lens and assembly costs too much compared to just more solar panels

  • The lens/panel combo is so bulky/prone to failure it becomes unreasonable to actually install/use.

Are the cops in the US really that bad?

News items are news because they are rare. The US amplifies it's negatives in search of eyeballs and in search of fixing problems. The average officer is average, not the extreme you see on the news.

Intel has always been a two cookie company

Intel sat on 4 cores with exceptionally high power usage for a decade while everyone was screaming for more. This resulted in Apple starting up their own damn chip business, and AMD smashing through the wall with 6, 8, 12, and 16-core chips available to the masses; and core counts requiring a third damn digit if you go server. Furthermore, Intel's process node is woefully behind TSMC's.

Intel sat on their laurels and are getting shat on from all angles now.

Yeah, I'm just going to wait and see. If it's good, I'll buy it, otherwise I won't.

From this article:

the FTC had failed to follow correct procedures and conduct an analysis before issuing the rule

The FTC is free to issue this again. They need to do it in accordance with the law next time.

DCS (Digital Combat Simulator)

Tons of well-simulated combat aircraft. IL-2 is probably the closest simulator to it.

 

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has announced a landmark $1.375 billion settlement with Google, resolving claims that the tech giant unlawfully collected and used Texans’ sensitive personal data.
