I'm not from the US, but isn't the smallest coin a 1-cent coin?

The numbers are totally off though.

A current-gen iPhone SoC (or CPU, the sources are not very clear), nhas about 19 billion transistors. That does not include transistors from flash memory. Following the numbers it does also not include RAM.

IPhone transistor count becomes completely irrelevant when you start looking at flash chips. Even a 16GB flash drive can contain 64 billion transistors.

Comparing source code sizes is completely meaningless. Rust projects are usually smaller with far more granular dependencies.

You're not wrong in the long term. But in the short term, people will park anywhere possible close to the shop, blocking everywhere near with cars.

It is.

That's not what she says in the video though.

It's not Open Source / Free Software and it's also based on Blink, like all Chromium browsers.

Not really sure about its selling points, but supporting Google's grip on web standards seems to clash with the statement of openness in this advertisement.

It working again after cooling down is an indication for heat creep IMHO. The filament is getting too hot up to where the gears are, causing them to slip and not feed filament.

If we are being fair, they are still reasonably fair to users. Open source gaming is not a reality.

They don't force you to use Steam, but still work on Proton as Open Source. They don't lock down their hardware.

What I'm trying to say is, while Valve is not perfect, it's much better than any big tech alternative.

Apparently "STINKY" is the default StarLink SSID (Another Musk joke), so yeah...

That's not been true for a long time.

Especially for a private home server, SSDs run quieter, cooler, and are more compact.

Still more expensive than spinning rust though.

Every time I see one of these in my feed I feel exactly the same. Even those that I understand the humor of, I find not particularly funny.
