We're comparing it to gen 1 to emphasize how far it is from being competitive.

Not really new; this has been the case with all the Tensor chips. I kind of assumed Google was going to step up their game at some point, but I don't think Samsung can produce chips on par with TSMC. Google is switching to TSMC for next year's Tensor 5, so maybe we'll see a big jump then.

That said, I don't think it's a deal-breaker. I'm running a Pixel 7 and it's "fine". The Pixel 6 had bad throttling/overheating problems, but the 7 and 8 are better. We'll see what the Big Problem is with the 9 series. There's always something.

Was there some medical reason for this? Seems too extensive to have been done for surgery.

Please, you need to be more specific. Android has half a dozen distinctly different share menus, and there are distinctly different reasons why each one is garbage.

Installing Linux after Windows should be fine without disconnecting drives.

The reverse is troublesome. Microsoft's installer is all too happy to shit on your drives, even the ones you're not using for installation. But Linux installers are much more friendly to dual-booting and all kinds of complex setups.

That's like 10-20 adult novels. Respect.

Now that you mention it, yeah, I wonder if they haven't updated recently.

Isn't the 7950X3D the best at basically everything? I mean, disregarding value per dollar, it's still better than any of the other Ryzens for gaming, isn't it?

https://www.logicalincrements.com/ is a good starting point.

If you want to beat the PS5 Pro in terms of raw performance, you'll probably want to look at the "great" tier and higher. It's hard to say now since we don't have any real-world benchmarks to go by.

$700 seems like a lot for a PS5 Pro, but if it's really as powerful as they claim then it will still compare well to PCs under $1k.

Buying anything on Amazon hardly seems viable anymore. There's so much counterfeit crap there, and a million low-effort rebrandings of the same stuff you can get on AliExpress for cheaper.

Shop local when you can, and at least shop not-Amazon for the rest.

For context, original lyrics:

Don't wanna be an American idiot
Don't want a nation under the new media
And can you hear the sound of hysteria?
The subliminal mind fuck America

Welcome to a new kind of tension
All across the alienation
Where everything isn't meant to be okay
Television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones who're meant to follow
For that's enough to argue

Well maybe I'm the faggot America
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda
Now everybody do the propaganda
And sing along to the age of paranoia

Welcome to a new kind of tension
All across the alienation
Where everything isn't meant to be okay
Television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones who're meant to follow
For that's enough to argue

Don't want to be an American idiot
One nation controlled by the media
Information age of hysteria
It's calling out to idiot America

Welcome to a new kind of tension
All across the alienation
Where everything isn't meant to be okay
Television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones who're meant to follow
For that's enough to argue

Super tame.

In the New Year's show, they changed "a redneck agenda" to "the MAGA agenda". Okay, little bit more explicitly partisan, but basically the same thing.

Edit: This appears to have been fixed already with another backend update. Leaving the post below as-is.

Current version in the footer: UI: 0.19.0-rc.11 BE: 0.19.0-rc.10

Starting today, most image thumbnails and pictrs links will not load. I tried clearing cookies and I tried in three different browser engines (Firefox, Chromium, Safari).

If I try to open one of the image URLs directly in my browser, it shows {"error":"auth_cookie_insecure"}.

Interestingly, images will load correctly if I am NOT logged in. Why are the pictrs URLs even checking cookies when they do not require auth? Is that new behavior in this version of Lemmy?

Here is an example post: https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/8482278

And an example direct image URL from that post: https://lemmy.sdf.org/pictrs/image/c8556f4f-d33c-4cac-86f3-975726ea69ec.png

I am interested to know if others are seeing the same issue. I have not exhaustively tested different cookies settings in my browsers, so it's possible some anti-tracking privacy settings are interfering with this behavior.

Worth noting is that the Eternity app on my phone continues to work. I did not even need to log out and back in today, like I did in my browsers.

Not once in the entire article do they measure energy in a unit suitable for measuring energy.

Measuring batteries in km is misleading and nonsensical. Batteries do not have a distance range. Cars have a distance range, based on many factors, only one of which is battery capacity.

Similarly, please stop measuring light output in watts that an imaginary incandescent bulb from 30 years ago might theoretically have used to produce that amount of light.
