You mean unlike a congressional parasite, or a PPP parasite, or a CEO parasite?
Use preview.
No, every day now.
More people fail every day.
Unsustainable means it fails eventually, not on a specific day.
"the proper solution is obviously to have a formal, controlled, actually viable work visa system for economic migrants"
Yes, we should definitely formalize and legalize our tampering with other countries to produce cheap labor we can abuse.
Wait, what?
and you make a lame joke out of a copy paste editor error we all saw and ignored.
Don't be mad because you didn't see it.
Also, don't call them "editors"
perm from a donor who unknowingly carried a cancer-causing gene has been used to conceive nearly 200 babies across Europe
And their hair is amazing.
I'm not saying that they can't do it, it's that they can't legally do it.
Ugh. Acrobat actually craps itself on forms now. The check boxes keep disappearing during scrolling, and I have the latest reader.
"The amount of raw materials used is significantly higher meaning the ecological impact is greater."
It isn't and that's also not how it works
No they did not. This story is about how they didn't. Learn to read, coward.
This isn't about a trademark. It's about a patented specification.
This is true. And the Republicans are the party of Nazis.
However I suspect it would be a bit more than $10 today.
A bit, but not much. (random example off AliExpress, that use this synaptic chip)
Worse yet, such a setup would most certainly add latency to an application, gaming, that is sensitive already to any delays. Gaming is what drives the 120Hz and above refresh rates...
There's no real reason why latency should be more than a couple of "scan-lines" (well, at least the DSC's equivalent horizontal-lines, if the signal needs conversion between compression variants). And there's a big incentive: less on-chip built-in RAM - it's litteraly cheaper to make the chip only keep the most recent relevant data and immediately start streaming out the HDMI 2.1 signal as soon as possible, rather than keeping multiple entire frames.
I fear that most DisplayPort to HDMI 2.1 dongles are not active adapters but instead passive physical connection switches.
Most, but not all. I litterally have a DisplayProt to HDMI + DVI + VGA combo dongle on my workstation at home.
But they tend to by a tiny bit more expensive (think 10 bucks instead of 1 bucks on AliExpress. Or 50 bucks at your local TV shop), because they require a dedicated chip inside the dongle.
Although to my frustration it has never worked the other way around with a HDMI ports being simply physical convertible to a DisplayPort.
Depends on the device. Can happen in some professional projectors: some enterprise-grade projectors can litteraly support "any protocol over any wiring with enough pins", i.e.: the presence of a HDMI, DP, DVI or VGA connector on a given port is mainly a convenience. This is so you could reuse wathever cabling is embed in the walls, you don't need to tear down the walls and redo the cabling (which could get expensive in a large conference room). This is also the reason you could find ultra cheap passive VGA-to-HDMI cables on AliExpress/eBay/Amazon for the last segment between the VGA port built into the lectern of some old university lecture room and the laptop outputting the HDMI that the projector is actually configured to fetch from the VGA cabling embed in the walls.
Wasn't there something about a PASCAL programmer knowing the value of everything and the Wirth of nothing?
