Huawei’s android skin/variant

No, it’s not anymore, never really was. They dropped even the last android parts from it with HarmonyOS NEXT last year.

This leak is really scetchy, tbh. If it’s real then it’s probably happening because of the HarmonyOS NEXT that came out late last year. With that they basically dropped the previously used custom android/linux kernel for their own totally own proprietary HarmonyOS kernel. However with that they also lost support for android and linux code sideloading in the process and replaced it with some linux translation layer.

I always thought that HarmonyOS was meant to be more of a Android replacement that also had it’s place in stuff like TVs, cars, IoT and smart devices, but they still tried PCs with it, but it was more like chromebook-like toy computer for web browsing and text editing than a full pc. It seemed like a competent product android and android smart device replacement, but I never saw it as a serious competitor for Windows, MacOS or Linux desktop. If them plan is just be self sufficient and ditch US code, then you can do more in the linux ecosystem and get more app support right out of the gate and not have to ask everybody to rewrite their code for your custom OS. With linux-laptops they will have global markets for their computers, when as Harmony OS and it’s still are best in China’s own ‘software lagoon’ where third parties care more about developing for Huawei app store.

Wasn’t uefi a must already for windows 10 computers? Atleast for win 11 it is. We are probably talking 10-20% max of global computers that are affected and those also the type of computers that are not generally upgrading to RDNA4.

Your thinking seems to assume the liberal society as static and unchanging and seek to make life within it more tolerable, even with things that are mostly just product of current society and it’s ills.

This, flat GDP really only accurately measures US economy and maybe the Euro zone. With others it becomes increasingly useless in really estimating anything concrete about that economy. Doubly so if they are sanctioned.

Crypto really is a perfect target for this kind of bank robbery, nobody can really feel too bad about it. It adds nothing to society, since you can’t even buy anything with it beside drugs and is mostly used for speculation and creating pollution. Also 99% of it is owned by people who already have enough or too much wealth to begin with.

They can’t. It’s too sweet of a deal when there is an already existing fanbase ready to give them their money for much less work and risk than building a totally new game.

Now that it has been “freedomized” it instead says that Israel is actually 3000+ years old and Palestinians are invaders, and Israel has the right to defend itself like chatgpt does. Also that American style liberal democracy is the peak of human development and civilization. Don’t kid yourself that this has anything to do with truth or making it more “accurate”. Yeah just replace one set of official truths, half thrush with other set of official positions, half truths and outright lies to plug the gaps. Again, who fact checks the factcheckers? Even just out of spite I would not use any model that advertises itself as being trained to answer to the sensibilities of a western techbro liberals so that they can once more outsource their thinking to outside party, because at-least it isn’t the CCP propaganda. Like it’s so absolutely dreadful when deepseek copy-pastes official CPC party line word for word, on Chinese form of government instead of making up some Wikipedia tier wall of text where the word “authoritarian” is about as common of a word as “the”.

I just don’t get it man. What kind of non thinking cretin purposefully would use this kind of model? It’s probably really the pettiness that gets to me so badly. Or maybe it’s that while this is purposefully made to push a certain narrative, the deepseek’s bias is probably just a result that it’s been trainer on Chinese internet data.

Yeah you are going to get “horrible” 100fps lows in AC4 and borderlands 2 whit physx enabled.

How many of the two dozen games affected were already capped engine wise to 60 or 30fps because of console ports? If you can afford 5000-series then you probably also have a processor that can more than enough offset the GPUs workload. AC4 for example came out when gtx 980 was bleeding edge. It’s just what AMD GPU users have been living with for decades, and not even really noticing. Even my three gen old low tier AMD laptop with integrated graphics can eek out 30+ fps in mirrors edge with physX on and all graphics maxed. I’m sure all of these games will be fine.

Oo, it has a demo out already?

Water is wet, researchers find

Like basic thermodynamics can tell you that carbon capture sucks efficiency wise. It’s more work to pour water on the floor and then mopping it up and putting a back into the bottle, than just not not spilling the water in the first place.

I would think, in the US, antitrust laws would apply.

ARM is brittish

Is this different from Intel and x86 architecture? (Genuinely asking)

yes the ARM architecture is it’s own thing, licensed by ARM.

It can be really bad for the industry if ARM is both a producer of chips and the gatekeeper within the ARM ecosystem. I don’t know if there are laws against this or loopholes through them, but what is going to prevent them from just withholding license or technologies to push competition out?

I haven’t been on NVIDIA for a while so i couldn’t tell for sure. I know that nvidia raytracing works on linux, but I’m not sure how it goes with the open drivers. If the noveau performance and stability is still somewhat lacking in general, then if both open drivers and raytracing are important to you then AMD is still the better bet.

Do you play a lot of games with ray tracing, or do you care about that stuff? If you don’t then AMD, it’s better bang for the buck for rasterization and works better on Linux.

“America is becoming fascist” makes me cringe.

It cannon become something that it has been for a long time. US was fascist under Clinton, Bush, Obama, first Trump admin, Biden and it keeps on the same track now. It’s less than useless rallying cry when US foreing policy alone in the past 70 years is a realworld example of the thought experiment of “what would have happened if nazi-germany had won WW2”. Genocide, war, coup, and dictatorship galore committed by the United States, especially after the 80s.

In the end what this narrative is about is that precarious middle class liberals fear that even more of the practices that US has been spreading around the world are now coming home and now the US government will gut it’s own people instead of some foreigners. Even this isn’t unprecedented and at worst Trump can only make things worse for some, but for many what they fear is already reality.

Makes me really think if this “Anonymous cell” has any real grass-roots basis or if it’s just the same coup-mongers hiding behind thin leftist veneer to just jump against Trump, who they see as destructive loose cannon to their operations, not as an real opponent. Nothing new for Anonymous name being used in this way btw. Where were they under Biden?
