Well, he's apparently doing a good job of staying alive on YouTube.

Hey, he may pander to little kids, but he's actually pretty smart/cool guy. (from what I can tell).

it must've taken some time to scan the entire internet

Watch enough repair videos and you'll realize that Mac's are absolutely poorly designed in regards to thermal performance.
 
Their response is exactly the deluded and uneducated type of dribble I would expect.
 
1. Shrinking the die, as far as I am aware, reduces power consumption and ups efficiency.
2. Shrinking the die does not mean you have to cram more cores in there, to compensate. Because you haven't lost anything.
 
Really? You mean like that time they made a system that ran so hot, the BGA melted itself and popped the GPU off the board? And their fix?
 
Put a piece of rubber between the outer case and the GPU, so that it wouldn't pop loose. Edit: Instead of doing a proper soldering job in the fucking first place.

You know those times where you're trying to correct misinformation? 
 
And the other party then resorts to the political insults deck of cards.....
 
I guess when they start doing so, you've already won 

Your logic is severely flawed. I don't mind if company does it on its own page, like Google on Google Search or GMail. But I sure as hell mind if Google is tracking me on CocaCola, Toyota, WordPress or even this very forum that has Google Analytics enabled. If I don't like Google, I can opt for not using their own webpages. I cannot opt out of 99% of webpages infested with their shit unless I block it with brute force basically. Does that sound like an acceptable behavior from a company? But majority of normies don't even know this shit is on webpages behind the colorful frontend and even if you tell them they don't understand what kind of problem it poses to them. They'll be like "I don't have anything to hide or worry about" in most cases. Because they just don't understand it and thus don't make an outrage thing out of it.

If we played a game where we guessed who in this thread is most likely to have a financial stake in selling people's data, I know who I'd pick.

That's not actually showing anything.    You need to put "special credentials" in when you shop online, but all my info is still spread across the net as if I gave them permission. 
 
Now, Please show me something that actually is an example of how the internet is intrinsically a public place.
 
So basically no more online shopping, forums, getting information from companies about their products or even downloading the latest hardware drivers?  Just stop using the internet is not an appropriate solution. 
 
The solution is for websites to be actually give half a shit about their traffic and not track when requested.
 
As ARikozuM and I have already said, they do not just "sit in a corner" they follow me all over the net and scoop my info from websites I visit.  Every new website automatically knows the last 5 I visited. 
 
If that isn't a form of harassment, when all I want to do is visit websites and gather information that I want, not what's pushed to me as a result of my web history, then I don't know what is.

SOAK THE RICH!!!
 
Oh, sorry...
 
SOAK THE TECH!!!
 
On topic: It's about time that legislation be made to curb the use of our data. The internet was meant to be a free resource and companies are trying to profit off of our data and behavior. Tracking should be set explicitly across the board.

People thinking they can download RAM....

So at this point we're just banning anything that has a threat to national security? 
 
Russian Vodka could plant a microscopic microphone in your stomach. BAN ALL IMPORTS FROM THE COMMIE MOTHERLAND!

So recently my guitar teacher brought up the 10,000 hour theory. For those of you who don't know. If you work for 10,000 hours at something you've officially mastered it. So one day in math class I was thinking. "Have I spent 10,000 hours in school?" So I whipped out my calculator and did the math. Going to a standard American public school I spend 8 hours a day at school. We'll define this variable as H. Then there are 5 days a school week. (D) 36 weeks in a school year.(S) And being a 6th grader by the end of the year I will have spent 7 years in school.(Y)  So if you do the math.
 
H*D*S*Y
(8*5*36*7)
 
Equals 10,080 hours of being a student. So by the end of the year if we account for the 10 or so days I've missed I will have spent 10,000 hours being a student. So technically I'm a master at being a student.
