AMD’s laptop OEMs decry poor support, chip supply, and communication — OEM complains the company has "left billions of US dollars lying around" due to poor execution: Reports
  • Honestly, this does explain why vendors like HP seem to have every possible combo of device available in their business class laptops as Intel CPU options, but it's sometimes like pulling teeth to get equivalent AMD options.

    It's sometimes a PITA if a client specifically wants an AMD machine for some reason.

    "Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder."
  • It was obviously a temporal anomaly.

    Or each grain of rice is a Q, just paying a visit. An ensign tried to vacuum up the rice before the ceremony and was turned into a bowl of petunias, so Janeway took the hint and left the rice alone.

    Trump rejects second Harris debate
  • Just treat the debate as normal, but they just swap to the empty podium where Trump should have been.

    After the debate they say Trump showed a marked improvement this time.

    School Monitoring Software Sacrifices Student Privacy for Unproven Promises of Safety.
  • If a school provides a device to a student to take home there's two possible outcomes.

    1. They provide a managed device, and with any management tool, there's a way to invade privacy, intended or not.

    2. They provide an unmanaged device and get sued by parents for letting their"innocent snowflake" access unwanted content.

    In both instances there's something to legitimately complain about, but I still say the first option is the better one. The problem comes with oversight and auditing on the use of those management tools.

    Not to mention that even with the second option of unmanaged devices, invasion of privacy can still occur if students are stupid enough to use the school provided accounts (Google, 365,etc)

    80% of corporate AI projects fail — twice the rate of other IT projects
  • Most of the time, technology just makes things happen faster, or at a larger scale.

    With "AI" we're getting both larger and faster at the same time as businesses try and cash in as quickly as possible once they find out that their "LLM" has been trained on data that means it is in permanent idiot mode, can be unlocked with a few words, hallucinates every second response (oh sorry you're correct raspberry only has 2 R's in it), or keeps generating completely racist images.

    Pixel 9 raises the bar for fast charging, should apply to other Android phones too
  • Because many people are not smart. If they buy a 65w charger and see only 60w being pulled they'll complain that either the charger or phone is defective and want a refund.

    I would like to see it as an option to enable, at the moment though I just have a few cables that measure/display this for me. It's a useful basic troubleshooting tool with laptops and phones. If you plug them in and dont see any current or only 0.1w, you know there's a problem with the device getting power.

    When shitposting becomes constiposting
  • While shit is a renewable resource, only so much shit can exist at any one time.

    Shitpost mods need to walk a fine line of laxitives, costives, gas station sushi, big mac meals, and dilators. Sometimes they get it wrong.

    We must pass the brain worm!
  • Trump could honestly use the restorative powers of a Goa'uld given what he looks like at the moment.

    Also, if I had to pick, I would probably prefer Goa'uld rule to be honest.
