Fully agreed on all points, it's why I say it's a feature, not a bug. Money is king in US capitalist society, and you start fucking with people's money, and people will start caring real quick.
Therein lies the problem.
I sympathize, but also, the XKCD about Standards comes to mind: https://xkcd.com/927/

What the eye-fuck is this design? Also, that's rich coming The Verge/Vox. Pot, meet Kettle.
I'm also unsure why they took a sudden tangent from the topic at hand to suggesting Oracle should buy groq. It's like two separate half-baked blog posts merged into one with no real segue or conclusion as to why that…
Yeah, I appreciate the separation as well actually, even though I'm not a fan of the langauges involved (no issue with QML, dislike JS and C++). I've made a few things with Qt and despite my feelings on the languages,…

Which tells me your experience is incredibly limited. Intel was very good, and when they partnered with Micron, made objectively the best SSD's ever made (3DXPoint Optanes). I lament that they sold their storage…
Disagree. has very little to do with it. Though it finally clicked why I keep seeing people repeat this, it's Apple users. (Not a dig btw, I can totally see why it'd feel that way from their POV). For starters, in the…
What is there to sell? The brand itself has value I guess, but that "Direct Access" goes out the door the second they sell it, so there's no value specifically in that to anyone else. Crucial is primarily a Marketing…
That's not how it works. Crucial winding down doesn't mean that there's less flash fabs in the world, just like there are plenty of DRAM companies that sell to the consumer market that don't have their own flash fabs…

Oh, Fuchsia isn't dead [0]. Apparently it's what the Nest Hub launched with and the latest update is pretty recent: from Oct 2025. Interesting. (Replying to my own comment instead of editing it as this is tangential to…

Far safer than overvolting. Changing settings can lead to stability issues no matter which way you push it frankly. If you're don't know what you're doing/aren't comfortable with it, probably not worth it.
