This kind of talk is effective if you want to push EU towards China. Don't really understand the tactics here. Trump in a nutshell I guess.
If he's really interested in Greenland he should try to create more division between Greenland and Denmark. Maybe that's what we'll see next.
Honestly, I believe most people overestimate intellectual and conscious rationality. Among themselves and others. The rationalizing is usually there afterwards. To justify current emotions, actions and circumstances.
Self preservation, since one can't control much anyways. And one needs a somewhat coherent world view.
I find it quite simple. Voters are economic left/progressive and social right/conservative. Center left parties are economic center and social left. The trend is similar in all western countries. And it's a bad match.
Yeah, I'm only interested in the "least bad" here. Taking usability, libre and performance into account. I don't think that even the Framework Laptop 13 RISC-V will be completely libre.
Thanks for input though!
Actually, it is not true from what I've learned. For example, Intel is about to push chipset/bios upgrades to boost the performance of the new Core Ultra 9 285k. And that kind of driver can at best be open source and in the upstream kernel or at worst closed source and only installed by some windows only bloatware.
Nice website! Thanks!
Having to use windows when upgrading firmware is very Linux unfriendly.
Ah, I think I have a better understanding of the PCIe hardware protocol now. Feel a bit more confident regard a 2 x8 setup. Thanks.
Just for the record: my understanding is that the HW protocol performs a handshake which settles the number of lanes that will be used when establishing a link. And the PCIe standard is always backwards compatible, so things should work just fine even if I buy something that says PCIe 6.0 later. Or at least the lower layers of the protocol should be compatible. And as long bandwidth isn't an issue.
It's for sure not impossible. But my guess is that it's because you learn the new model and your behavior and expectations change. It's a known phenomenon and I do believe the developers/companies when they say that they didn't change anything. It's also quite easy to verify/test this hypothesis by using locally hosted LLMs. There are probably a few papers covering this already.
Though it does happen that one is downgraded to a smaller model when using free versions OpenAI, Anthropic and others. But my experience is that this information allways is explicit in the UI. Still, it's probably quite easy to miss.
Also, I'm almost exclusively using the free version of Mistral Large (Le Chat) and I've never experienced regression. But Mistral also never downgrades, it just becomes very slow.
