  1. This is exactly what happens when you invest billions and hire the best industry specialists for decades. M-series processors did not magically appear out of nowhere. Apple perfected them for years in iPhones, but people didn't have the ability to compare since Apple doesn't share their processors with anyone.
  2. Apple still leads in raw performance. Their M5 is far ahead of basically everything in single-core performance. AFAIK it's because their architecture prioritizes IPC over frequency, and they can spend the entire silicon budget on a very large monolithic chip.
  3. There are no ARM chips with enough power. They have said many times that they are not interested in minor performance improvements but rather want a leap. The Snapdragon X2 Elite chip is the leader (I cannot count Apple; they won't share their chips, obviously), but it doesn't even match AMD with their RDNA 3.5, and who knows when they will (or even if).
  4. S0 is a step forward. Disabling CPU entirely is just a "workaround". Both S3 and hibernation has a lot of security implications which S0 solves. Apple uses their own S0 alternative and it works... Perfectly?

    The real problem is that both AMD and Intel S0 implementations are mediocre at best and this is what they should fix. Also most vendors are dickheads and cannot even verify that their system even goes to S0ix states without any problem before releasing it. Because of their laziness you can buy brand new certified "Linux ready" machine which won't even achieve S0ix states out of the box.

  5. Security patches and new features that sites will inevitably adopt in the future?
  6. > Trump has been openly playing with the idea of a third term

    Because Trump is just a blabbermouth. Sorry, but people are just indoctrinated from both sides. You can check prediction markets and see the real odds of Trump not leaving the office. Yep, there is a chance, but IMO it's around 5% max.

    > I don't understand where you're getting the idea of comparing with ...

    Yes, I understand that US has democracy crisis. And so has the Europe! The problem is that there are no longer healthy examples in the world, except maybe smaller countries. Democracy as a thing is dying, but US are still holding the torch IMO.

  7. Trump will leave office in 2028 just like any other US president. The only difference between now and then is extreme polarization all over the world because a lot of emerging problems.

    I am originally from Russia and I cannot read this seriously. Yes, there are problems in US democracy. But it still works and LIGHT YEARS ahead of what you can see in Russia. Those comparisons with Nazi Germany and other oppressive regimes are just insane. They devalue words, and you just won't find the right ones when shit really hits the fan.

  8. AI assistant license is now included even in Free tier so you should be able to use Ollama without any problem after 2025.1 release.
  9. It's few seconds usually. Traefik is not a bottleneck after system start, most time takes containers startup.
  10. I recently discovered them and made an entire homelab based on the atomic OS and rootless Quadlets, can highly recommend them. They also allow to use systemd socket activation. Which means you can create systemd http/https sockets for example and activate Traefik automatically just like ssh.socket and podman.socket activates sshd.service and podman.service accordingly. It's a lifesaver since this is basically the only way to preserve source IP in rootless setups (rootless Podman/Docker usually doesn't easily allow to preserve source IP without major drawbacks).

  11. In the provided link price seems to be reasonable for SLC, no? 15 bucks for 512 MB (not GB).

    Also datashits clearly say it's SLC and not TLC: https://static6.arrow.com/aropdfconversion/55056b1a2a966f599...

  12. As far as I know Telegram has around the same number of engineers even today, handling around the same size userbase.
  13. Their GPU will still be needed to do training. As far as I understand this will improve only interference performance and efficiency.
  14. Just tried Netflix, it works perfectly.
  15. Probably it's just a search bot like Googlebot.
  16. As far as get it, yes, he does, but currently not everything is at mainline Linux, according to this gist:
