  • China is quietly pushing ahead with massive 50,000Mbps broadband rollout to leapfrog rest of the world on internet speeds

    Jump

  • I have symmetrical 10 Gbps at home ($30/mo) and I'll agree. When it's nice when you have big updates, for most households 1 Gbps is going to be just fine. As you say, the vast majority of users are bottlenecked by Wi-Fi.

    The bigger crime are all the asymmetrical connections that people on technologies like Cable TV networks have, where you get 1-2 Gbps down but only something tiny like 50 Mbps up. This results in crappy video calls, makes off-site/remote backups unfeasible, means you can't host anything at home, etc.

  • They're probably not building out 50 Gbps to the rice farmers

  • Most residential fiber globally currently is GPON with a 1-2 Gbps shared line using passive optical splitters, split up to 32 ways. Raising that shared line to 50 Gbps is a great upgrade.

    Is your internet speed rigged? They want us consuming, not participating!

  • I guess technically, yes

  • In Apple’s first-quarter earnings, the Mac leads the way in sales growth

  • It's for running AI on the GPU. You need a really expensive PC GPU to get more than like 16 GB of RAM or whatever, so the bottleneck for large AI models is swapping in and out data from system RAM over PCIe.

    The Mac has an SoE with unified memory, where the GPU can access all 192 GB at full speed, which is perfect for AI workloads where you need the GPU to access all the RAM. There's always a tradeoff where the PC GPUs have faster processors (since they have a way bigger power budget), but the Mac GPU has faster memory access, so it's not always a slam-dunk which is better.

    APUs/Integrated GPUs on PCs also have unified memory but they always targeted the low end so aren't as useful.

  • Trump says Canada and Mexico to be hit with 25% tariffs on Saturday

  • "Oooh it's December, time to raise taxes to 20%. Ok January again, lowering taxes to 0%. The people love me!"

  • APFS still supports resource forks just fine - I can unstuff a 1990's Mac application in Sequoia on a Apple Silicon Mac, copy it to my Synology NAS over SMB, and then access that NAS from a MacOS 9 Mac using AFP and it launches just fine.

    The Finder just doesn't use most of it so that it gets preserved in file copies and zip files and such.

  • X announces a partnership with Visa to power X Money’s wallet | TechCrunch

    Jump

  • He's explicitly said he wants to make "X" the China-WeChat-style "super app" of the west that you need to have installed to do anything and everything, and that includes payments https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super-app

  • Trump administration tests the power to email every federal employee at once

    Jump

  • This is so Elon Musk can send out "morale boost" emails about working very hardcore.

  • APKMirror is no longer allowing downloads of TikTok, Lemon8, citing US Bill H.R.7521, setting a dangerous precedent for sideloading applications

  • The old internet, where the worst crime you could do was hot-link an image, and the worst punishment there was was having it replaced with goatse

  • Trump can't change the law, he can only pinky swear that he won't enforce it.

    Would you trust Trump's promise to the tune of $5000/download fines?

  • Why is/are Scandinavian/Nordic countries so left-wing?

    Jump

  • As recent as the 90's it also used to be left-wing to oppose immigration, since it was seen as a way for the right to devalue labor and lower wages.

    A lot has changed.

  • What the Fuck happened with Gen X?

  • Originally calling everyone old a "Boomer" was a reaction to older people calling everyone who was young "Millennials" even when millennials were now in their late 30's

  • Matt Mullenweg deactivates WordPress accounts of contributors planning a fork

    Jump

  • They weren't even planning to create a fork.

    Basically Matt interpreted their "we're going to take over work within Wordpress since Matt abandoned it" as "we're taking over Wordpress from Matt" and is telling them through some tortured rhetoric "you aren't Wordpress, I'm Wordpress, you go do it in a fork instead"

  • Well well well

  • For over a decade I went everywhere by bike in Sweden. They have bike lanes that get plowed and sanded in winter, the snow is not a problem, the problem is places with bad, car-centric infrastructure.

  • This is some Los Angeles Trump supporter LMAO.

  • Modern PHEVs are smart enough to run the gas engine occasionally to keep it from going bad

  • All my stuff is running on a 6-year-old Synology D918+ that has a Celeron J3455 (4-core 1.5 GHz) but upgraded to 16 GB RAM.

    Funny enough my router is far more powerful, it's a Core i3-8100T, but I was picking out of the ThinkCentre Tiny options and was paranoid about the performance needed on a 10 Gbit internet connection

  • Same here in a Synology DS918+. It seems like the official Intel support numbers can be a bit pessimistic (maybe the higher density sticks/chips just didn't exist back when the chip was certified?)
