China’s Inner Mongolia Declares War on Crypto Mining
SlidewaysZ replied to Jet_ski's topic in Tech News
This will be interesting. If they actually stop mining in China it will have a large effect on cryptocurrency. China holds large amounts of crypto currency removing those miners will take large chunks of the transaction network offline. I actually think this would drive transaction fees so high that we might actually see crypto crash hard at least for a little while until new mining setups are created. -
Google will stop personalized ads and tracking
SlidewaysZ replied to Drama Lama's topic in Tech News
They said they won't track you with cookies. That's because now they embed invisible tracking pixels into things like marketing emails or ads to track people with. We are using it at work right now. -
Reports are Fry's is officially dead as of the end of the day
SlidewaysZ replied to Middcore's topic in Tech News
Man it seems like physical computer stores will be a thing of the past. I mean you saw it coming a store that sells technology but has a website from the early 2000s wasn't going to end well. -
Well one lawsuit for one company probably had a good chance of going through. This actually presents a weaker argument. Now the companies can simply turn it on the manufacturer of the analog sticks and say since it's a widespread problem it's just how it works essentially. They will then claim their are now in place some made up accuracy percentage targets.

Sweden preparing new IP law to put pressure on actors like Facebook
SlidewaysZ replied to Spindel's topic in Tech News
I absolutely hate social media but this is absolutely insane. I hope Facebook keeps up the pressure and the governments have to cave on this stupid idea. Charging for news per link is not a good idea. Do you know what that will do to news companies. Not to mention why does the government think that tech companies should be paying for the privilege to give the news companies clicks and views? That's the most backwards thing. -
Sennheiser is open to selling their consumer audio busines
SlidewaysZ replied to spartaman64's topic in Tech News
Not surprising at all if you are into the Audio space you know by now the high end Chinese headphones (called ChiFi) are killing big name brands. They are making better sounding, better quality (I know better quality from china crazy right) and much cheaper Audio products. I would bet they sell to Drop since they do all collaborations with them. -
I'm going to side with Tesla slightly on this one. Why simple because their not wrong about the lifespan. If you look at how many reads and writes are being done for all the sensors, cameras, autopilot, etc. That will absolutely kill an SSD. However their Engineers should know to be writing to the ram first and then write to the ssd on shutdown. Not to mention they should use a much bigger ssd to spread out the write sectors. However their not purposefully making the car self destruct it's just how the system was built.

DLSS now available to all developers as a plugin in UE4
SlidewaysZ replied to Hymenopus_Coronatus's topic in Tech News
RIP AMD GPU just when they thought they were competitive. No seriously if AMD doesn't do something soon this could be the death blow for their GPU division. DLSS is seriously awesome technology and having major adoption is awesome.
