Google arent really opening anything up (not in a meaningful way), so its happening for neither.

Thank u my friends

Im lost 😭

Sure, but they wouldnt exist without that. Making micro batches of specialized hardware is not profitable at all. Offering a real warranty would immediately bankrupt them. If they sold more than a few thousand devices per model then i would care, but meanwhile big manufacturers get away with so much worse.

Basically all their products are essentially dev kits. They are not meant for normal consumers. At least thwts how it has been for the phone, laptop, watch, etc.

Depends on you and your partners kinks i guess

Enhancement to make it even smaller? That would be funny :D

They are tying pay and benefits to your personal AI usage, last i heard, so its not that they are freely deciding to use this shit.

Careful with wiping anything with the “boot” flag. That can backfire very badly depending on how your system is set up. Those are small anyways so i would just leave them and only kill the ntfs partitions and combine that space into an extra partition that you can store stuff in.

Resizing partitions is messy so if you want a clean setup with one big home partition i would just reinstall. You could also copy everything in the home partition to a backup drive and just try out resizing. If it breaks you can create a new home partition and copy everything back.

I see, then its fair to be pissed, i retract my point 🫡

Can you though? Arent the CDs just basically single use activation codes?

Why is this still a topic? Having a physical disk doesnt give you any more ownership over the games. The ability to play the game is still tied to a license that they can revoke at any time. Once activated the copy is tied to your account or am i misremembering this? You dont lose anything from this except for a useless plastic box.

All to be trashed when the companies buying it go bust because nobody wants their shitware. So much wasted electricity and water and minerals.

I think they mean the graphic and text on the board no?

As others pointed out, the issue lies with it being “need” instead of “can”.

Never buy anything that needs to be online to function

Just someone going: “No actually, we will not do that” to something coming from the US government is wonderful. All our usual suckers just go “We are discussing this” or just evade the subject.

the ceiling price means those who commit to an SCA are insulated if memory prices go even higher.

Bröther, you are the ones that are freely deciding that the price should be higher. There are no market principles driving this price increase. This is not the result of supply and demand mechanics. The demand has already been back down to normal levels for a while. You are just a monopoly cartel that has no competition until chinas memory fabs start outperforming you in a few years.

Oooh i see that would probably happen yeah

Ad revenue. If ads disappeared from the internet, so would most of big tech. The future i dream of.
