The funny part is that rather than respecting this, they chose to cryptographically pair the parts, so they stop working if you replace them…

Being pedantic, but…
The amd64 ISA doesn’t have native 256-bit integer operations, let alone 512-bit. Those numbers you mention are for SIMD instructions, which is just 8x 32-bit integer operations running at the same time.
Only slightly related, but here’s the compiler flag to disable an arbitrary 2GB limit on x86 programs.
Finding the reason for its existence from a credible source isn’t as easy, however. If you’re fine with an explanation from StackOverflow, you can infer that it’s there because some programs treat pointers as signed integers and die horribly when anything above 7FFFFFFF gets returned by the allocator.
The “++” in C++ stands for extra verbose.
If you use it, your social credit score drops by 30!
That’s going to be a fun way to learn pod tolerances and affinities. Although… it’s also a great way to play around with multiarch clusters without accidentally burning a hole in your wallet from AWS/GCP usage.
giving their 1st party native apps advantageous functionality competitors can’t (yet)
Perhaps one day, other developers may be allowed into the holy land of JIT recompilation.
2024 is going to be the year of the Linux Desktop enshittification. When anything you love goes public, you won’t be loving it for much longer.
After Netflix started offering streaming, I stopped considering piracy as a worthwhile option. Now, it’s actually easier to pirate whatever the fuck you want to watch than figure out what streaming service it’s on, and which of your friends has the account you’re all sharing.
Not available anymore because we didn’t pay for licensing? Too bad, no refunds on your search.
In that case, then yup. Fuck both the corporations patenting/paywalling these advancements and the anti-GMO crowd fear mongering about it.
Has the disease been researched well enough for us to know how to genetically engineer resistance to it? If not, what you’re saying is a moot point.
Reminds me of a certain Mr. “I did not have sexual relations with that woman.” Nobody gave a fuck that he did it; they were upset he hid it.
Oh no, a more expensive subscription (for insurance) for a car that makes you already subscribe to be a beta tester of a technology that runs you into the side of a train!
It’s pretty good if you’re a Nazi or Elon fan, I imagine.
I’m genuinely surprised something owned partly by the Chinese government isn’t at the bottom.
I hope you used protection!
Pro choice like working overtime or starving.
Pro choice like having a cell phone or not having a job.
Pro choice like going back to prison or being homeless.
Great choices. The only way they could be more coerced is if someone held a gun to your head.
I share the DIY repair sentiment, but the other commenter was right. You saved them money by opting yourself out of their warranty, which is free to you, but costs them money. Now, if you had used the warranty and then repaired things yourself after it’s no longer free, that would be a nice FU to them.
