    TheReal1980 got a reaction from Paul Thexton in WWDC 2023: What to expect (READ FOR UPDATE)   
    So AR-porn will be next I assume? You can just go into your living room, put it on and there are 10 girls in front of you and they will do anything you want (talk to them, strip et.c)?
     
    Yeah, we are doomed as a society.

    U.S. officials order Nvidia to halt sales of top AI chips to China
    https://www.reuters.com/technology/nvidia-says-us-has-imposed-new-license-requirement-future-exports-china-2022-08-31/
     
    Something tells me that this Biren chip is more or less a strait copy of the Nvidia chip and by banning China from using it they can not make it anymore? Or are these chips just rebranded Nvidia chips? I dunno, but if it is a copy they should be ashamed of themselves.

    Did they not even include Hiroo Kinoshita when talking about EUV?
     
    Anyway, I would recommend Asianometry on Youtube, he does a much better job on his own explaining everything.

    TheReal1980 got a reaction from ne0tic in Apple M1 Ultra - 2nd highest multicore score, lost to 64-core AMD Threadripper.   
    Summary
    Looks like we have a rocket on our hands! Second highest multicore score of any CPU, not bad.

    This thing is a rocket it seems. Higher score than the Intel 12900 and almost as fast in multi-core score as the 3990X 64-core AMD Threadripper (which is #1). Apple moving forward, looking forward to a octa-CPU Mac Pro in the near future.

    Summary
    People who compete (and people around that help) in this years winter olympics in China must have a app installed.
    While you may think "so what", you are not seeing the full picture.
    According to someone who reverse engineered the app to look at the code it is quite obvious that the app is listening to everything that is said.

    Why is this not a bigger issue? Why does the CCP want to listen in to everyone who is competing and storing everything and how can Apple and Google accept this?

    If that is true they all praise to Apple. I hated the Intel Apple products because of the heating issue and lack of performance, but now... Oh boy...

    People on here who show what everything cost and don't like it please understand, people who buy these more powerful models are most likely using them to make money, they are not buying them to play games.
    The price will be repayed fast if you work on the computer so the price means less than you think, especially to creators who use it to earn a living.

    I hope they have the option to have it passively cooled/no fan, THAT would be INSANE.
