So long story short...

You don't like current AMD systems because one of them had an HDR screen? Nothing to do with CPU/GPU/APU?

Surely some debate to be had here. Plants absolutely affect their environments, just over longer timescales.

> First of all, BitTorrent clients do not download in random order or wait 5 minutes. They usually download the rarest block first, but can do whatever they want, whenever they want.

The problem here is that BT works so well because the clients default to "good behavior" (prioritize rare pieces first) and discourages "bad behavior" (leeching/no upload).

This tilts the balance on the whole enough to maintain the health of the network. If you change these, you'd need to introduce other mechanisms to preserve the network incentives.

A business I work with has a factory in China that produces their devices. They absolutely do most of the assembly manually, as many of their sister factories do.

Robotics automation is a tradeoff to gain efficiency at the expense of flexibility, with a large upfront cost.

All* the people lamenting the current administration are scared of or want to ban firearms... whoops!

Now, imagine if those people had gotten their way, and how much easier it would be for the administration to do some of the things people claim it wants to do (e.g. gulags).

*Broad generalization

I make maybe 5 Amazon purchases a year. There are a lot of shopping addicts out there! Gotta get your dopamine fix somehow I suppose.

The fundamental blocker: Context

Considering the framework desktop or something like it for a combo homelab / home assistant / HTPC. The new gen of AMD APUs looks to be the sweet spot for a lot of really interesting products.

Love what you guys are doing!!

I heard they were going to mandate seatbelts next! Where are our freedoms?!?!?

It's basically a simple rpc server, there's nothing complicated going on...

I've heard recycled plastic's polymer structure can be compromised, leading to orders of magnitude more micro plastics being released into e.g. your plastic water bottle.

Sounds like an observation, not an argument.

Factories in the US are less automated than in many foreign countries (SK, China, Germany) [0]. Same with our ports.

> Part of the reason many people consider those areas “flyovers” is that minorities, women, gays, nerds, really lots of people, can expect to get treated very badly in those areas.

It's not all roses and butterflies but a blanket statement like "women/gays/nerds/minorities get treated very badly" in these areas is laughable and very "online"/detached from reality.

Very snobby elitist take tbh.

> Tesla shares and Musk’s wealth are up by hundreds of billions

Not sure about musk's wealth but TSLA is down by >30% in the last 3 months.

This is 100% correct based on all the trump voters I've spoken to.

I applaud you for trying, but HN doesn't want reason or understanding w.r.t trump or his voters. Way easier to label everyone/everything as fascist nazis and stick your head in the sand.

Yeah can't believe all those horrible parents taking kids to summer camp...

Why is this on HN?

Unless a series of unfortunate accidents occur at the TSMC fabs long before China can put them to use...

There's that pale blue dot! Nice selfie.

Yeah, the Russians definitely couldn't have done this themselves... they needed the help of this one guy to compile publicly available data.

Am I on Reddit or HN?

Sounds like you didn't know that either.

The gold-encrusted pile of poo? Not missing much...

I appreciate the content and respect the hustle but I'm really not a fan of the author's writing style.

I also hear that the stock is almost non-existent for the 5000 series. Ball is in AMDs court, let's see what happens...

I've been using my 6750XT with rocm ever since I picked it up ~2 years ago. Idk if it's "officially" supported but it's works with SD and LLMs just by setting an environment variable.

I've learned a lot of great general game dev info from Tynan Sylvester's book [0] (creator of Rimworld). Has good info on motivation, rewards, timing, goals, design philosophy, etc.

I have next to no game dev experience and the book is a great intro to a lot of foundational topics imo. NB: the book isn't very technical and is an easy read!

Memecoin = something that looks like a cryptocurrency when squinting but fails the Howey test

Reread the parent. They mean the purchaser has no expectations of profit because the promoter isn't running a business enterprise based on it. Unlike investing in a stock.

Not that I would ever light my money on fire like that...
