I helped clean up a 2021 laptop yesterday that had 32 gigs of RAM with a half TB of storage.

It was a standard-issue company laptop at the time.

Can you imagine paying more for an 8 gig machine today?

It may be the new normal but people without an urgent need are waiting to see if the bubble pops.

There doesn't seem to be a free market road to profitability without a significant resource breakthrough so maybe they're right.

At least CPM isn't CP/M but I always have to think twice.

Good call adding punctuation to the initialism, though.

If that'll all they intended they could have agreed on a very narrowly-tailored agreement limiting the use to the same aspects of the film as manual animation.

Maybe Cage is doing some solidarity thing with animators or maybe Amazon intended to do much more and were attempting an underhanded trick.

It's hard to tell except you'd expect Cage to say something if animators' jobs were his cause.

It sounds like his agent or manager knew what was up.

It already works like a little old lady calling the cops for every imaginary reason.

> you apparently desire to use systems beyond their design points

Who doesn't include cost in design?

If my CPU/SoC is plenty fast for my task and the DRAM is faster than I need it to be and a CPU instruction to compress takes less power than a write out to the bus - it would just be wasteful to manufacture and purchase twice as much DRAM as the application needs.

Either the end user gets a better price (and all money is the result of expending energy, so we save again) or the manufacturer makes a larger profit (in a constrained market).

Now then - all you lunatics embedding Electron and costing me 400MB to send an 80 character text message - we need to talk about this.

CRAM seems like a great idea but it's not the solution to not caring about the Craft.

Mathematician is also a white-collar job being replaced by AI.

Can't tell if we should moderate the article as Troll or Flamebait.

Commenters have already pointed out the dishonesty of the prose based on their own published stats.

Yes, I'm enabling the clickbait by commenting.

JPEG-XL is a good format but I just realized yesterday that Google Docs on Android doesn't support inserting a webp image a decade after Google was pushing it. I had one from a website and needed to run it through imagemagick first.

Android supports it, all the apps using android image primitives supoort it, but one of Google's flagship apps still doesn't.

We used move much faster thirty years ago. If an app supported say GIF, PNM, and TGA when JPEG came out it was supported in the next release.

Hopefully this round will be better. It's probably a management problem ... maybe they will listen to their chatbot since they don't listen to their engineers.

I don't know the protocol but old phone headsets had a 2.5 or 3.5mm jack with an extra ring that got you play/pause/hook/next/last.

Hypothetically that could have been implemented. I had a collection of Alexas that got binned as soon as they got caught spying for police so I never got that far. ESP32 is better for nerds anyway.

One thing Australia does right is a statute naming removal of features as a violation of contract requiring full refunds in these circumstances.
