It’s not RAM slots, it’s unified memory, built into the CPU/chip. ALso means you can’t expand it later.

1. Linux isn’t driven by a profit-first motive, so user-centric decisions come first
2. There is no number 2

Way more, since the net is going to condensate and densely collect more water than the sparse droplets a plant would on its own.

You’re not getting a 4080 for $200 though…

Did anything happen w/r/t the fake art dealer that trafficked her?

I mean, Micron for sure did, when they “exited consumer RAM to focus on data centers” at a point where overall RAM was at peak demand. That’s a supreme intent to create artificial scarcity.

So now LEO’s will just buy the data, instead of getting warrants, right?

The fact that it can do it in the first place means it can do it at all. Just because they require the selection now, doesn’t mean they aren’t harvesting telemetry 24/7, and won’t “accidentally” enable this feature later.

This sounds a lot like fingerprinting under the false flag of making user experience better.

But was the GPU OK? That’s gold right there.

Speech to Text -> NLU -> Ordered summarized -> human for review (we hope?) -> order placed. They are using these to reduce the labor demand on the human portion, and I presume at some point the “to human for review” will just go away, if they get the accuracy dialed in.

The shitty part is, it’s not like they are saving much money, since those jobs pay shit anyways. I have to wonder what the ROI is on replacing the electronics and hooking all that up, plus the R&D that went into the system itself, is.

DeepSeek never said it was permanent in their pricing materials, the article writer did. They are just taking the current expiration date off an existing discount. It’s absolutely a shot across the bow at Claude, OpenAI, et al., but the author was click-baiting, as is tradition.

Wave power is transmitted back to land, usually, it won’t be a floating data center. At least I doubt it would be, but who knows, they are pretty awful people.

The word you’re looking for is sociapth. You need to be a sociopath to become a billionaire

How many is that, in bananas? Or school buses?

I mean, it’s shady for headlines, but it’s not false. The board are residents, and the did vote it down. Then they “settled” and I’m betting it was a pittance compared to the data center value. In reality, it was probably a situation where whomever was backing the data center said to throw lawyers and/or money at the problem until it went away.

It’s roughly twice the size of the base app, if it’s the same as Edge, which on my machine is 1.82GB. It’s shady as hell, but “massive” is doing a lot of lifting in this headline.

I built my original Windows 10 gaming PC in 2015, with 16GB RAM. I recently re-rolled it as a CachyOS gaming PC, and had the same RAM. All was fine. VRAM on the other hand, yeah, go big or don’t bother. I thought I was getting a great deal on a RTX 5050 with 8GB VRAM. It is woefully inadequate for modern AAA games, for sure. Thank goodness for protondb.com though.

RTX 5090 is only $4000 right now… /s

YMMV depending on the types of games you play. GPU-bound ones (most, these days) will suffer without a good GPU. CPU-bound games (Civilization series comes to mind) are easier to build for.

I was hoping the RAM shortage and resulting VRAM price hikes would force the game development industry to renew a focus on performance and efficiency in resource utilization, but I think they are just trying to ride out this likely multi-year RAM price gouging we’re currently in.

So, big block of ice?
