Trickle down economics, because they're pissing on you.

I just wish each video decoder manufacturer didn't feel the need to create their own API that isn't supported by anything.

Apparently he thought it would be funny to interfere with our immigration enforcement operations.

I mean, he was right.

Almost every AI step in this process would be better done without AI, though.

Using a ton of AI agents instead of a stable API is the opposite of streamlining.

High resolution graphical assets are big. That's why we're now getting 32GB video cards in desktop PCs.

Sure, nobody's doing super high end graphics on a phone, but it doesn't take much high resolution art to take a big bite out of that 6GB. Phones don't have separate system and video RAM, remember.

That's because empty RAM is wasted RAM.

You want to keep RAM full of stuff you aren't using right now. That stuff can be erased almost instantly if you need the RAM for something else. That's why OSs list "Available RAM" and "Free RAM" as two separate things.

Removing all the idle apps from RAM just means you need to wait longer every time you open one of them.

According to the Sailor Moon dub, they're 'cousins'.

Free expression? That doesn't sound very brand-safe, how will we sell ads alongside that?!

Sudden onset defenestration. It's an epidemic.

There's a blast from the past. Uh oh!

IIRC TRIM commands just tell the SSD that data isn't needed any more and it can erase that data when it gets around to it.

The SSD might not have actually erased the trimmed data yet. Makes it even more important to turn it off ASAP and send it away to a data recovery specialist if it's important data.

 

Just two years ago my car's 50 kWh battery weighed around 350 kg, now you can get a 45 kWh battery that fits in the palm of your hand!
