> Things look similar on the mobile side of the market, with Google Chrome having 69.15% (+1.92 points) and Safari being second with 20.32% (-2.2 points).

Thanks, EU! Always on the right side of history.

dkiebd··on Intel Patents 'Software Defined Supercore'
Okay? This is not relevant. What matters here is that they have developed this technology. “Patents” in the title of the article is a way of saying that they have developed the technology.
dkiebd··on The car is not the future: On the myth of motorized freedom
The way I understand your comment, it implies that a) users of public transportation should be invested in it, whilst it’s more likely that they use it because they have no alternative, and that b) civic and national pride results in higher demand for public transportation. I don’t think those are universal truths.
dkiebd··on Are people's bosses making them use AI tools?
It will be funny when one of those reports says that certain steps will be taken in the future to make sure the same incident doesn't occur again, nobody reads the report so nobody notices, and then when the same incident occurs again one of the clients sues.
dkiebd··on New research reveals longevity gains slowing, life expectancy of 100 unlikely
Also an unrealistic one. A lot of hard work is necessary for that. Most people don’t want or can’t do that work.
dkiebd··on New research reveals longevity gains slowing, life expectancy of 100 unlikely
>I would never move to a country I don't respect, let alone stay to drain resources and give nothing back.

Hey, good for you. But there are many societies where making a living without working is something to be proud of. I know because I live in one.

dkiebd··on The World Runs 20B Instances of Curl. Where's the Support?
Or the guy working for that twitter profile had no idea what curl is and thought it was third-party software. Of course that wouldn't work that well for the author of curl who to put it mildly loves attention.
dkiebd··on John Carmack's arguments against building a custom XR OS at Meta
Ah, the Europeans woke up.
dkiebd··on Income Equality in Nordic Countries: Myths, Facts, and Lessons
>Why should I pay for someone's healthcare when I live healthy and all I see that others are smoking?

In the EU (I have no idea about America) tobacco is heavily (and I mean heavily in some countries) taxed because of this.

dkiebd··on Intel's "Clearwater Forest" Xeon 7 E-Core CPU Will Be a Beast
How do you fix an oxidation issue with firmware.
dkiebd··on Intel's "Clearwater Forest" Xeon 7 E-Core CPU Will Be a Beast
As far as I can tell that’s not what happened. What happened is that some motherboard manufacturers gave the chip too much power, more than intel recommended, and fried it.
dkiebd··on Intel's "Clearwater Forest" Xeon 7 E-Core CPU Will Be a Beast
I find this comment surprising. They have always had better single-core performance than AMD at the same price tag.
dkiebd··on Intel's "Clearwater Forest" Xeon 7 E-Core CPU Will Be a Beast
Do you have any info about this? I got mine RMA’d and it works fine.
dkiebd··on ChatGPT offered bomb recipes and hacking tips during safety tests
Have they tried not asking for bomb recipes or hacking tips? I've found that to be very effective at not getting bomb recipes or hacking tips.
dkiebd··on China is eating the world
[flagged]
dkiebd··on Brazil offers America a lesson in democratic maturity
Brazil is a melting pot. It's completely impossible.
dkiebd··on Sci-Hub has been blocked in India
I assume those papers are integral for your business. A $20k/year business expense is not really ridiculous. You think it is ridiculous because you can pirate it and get it for free. They are bytes and bytes are worthless or something.
dkiebd··on UMichigan study: EVs are cleaner than ICEs over average vehicle life
Which is not what I said. Buying a new car is an upfront cost that not everybody can afford to pay.
dkiebd··on UMichigan study: EVs are cleaner than ICEs over average vehicle life
You forget the citizens who can't afford to change their cars. Of course a dictatorship can just say "too fucking bad".
dkiebd··on GMP damaging Zen 5 CPUs?
What kind of camera is using the engineer that doesn't have autofocus and generates 378x283 photos?
dkiebd··on Kiwi.com flight search MCP server
APIs were deprecated after Cambridge Analytica.
dkiebd··on Apple revokes EU distribution rights for an app on the Alt Store
But people benefit from piracy, so I doubt people will support Apple here. Media companies on the other hand…
dkiebd··on A teen was suicidal. ChatGPT was the friend he confided in
We have many tools in this life that can maim and kill people and we keep them anyway because they are very useful for other purposes. It’s best to exercise some personal responsibility, including not allowing a 16 year old child unattended access to the internet.
dkiebd··on A teen was suicidal. ChatGPT was the friend he confided in
This sucks but the only solution is to make companies censor the models, which is a solution we all hate, so there’s that.
dkiebd··on No evidence ageing/declining populations compromise socio-economic performance
The issue here is that nowhere is the wellbeing of the low income natives considered.
dkiebd··on Silicon Valley is pouring millions into pro-AI PACs to sway midterms
Who is going to spend a dime in lobbying for or against the EU’s AI Act? The absolutely irrelevant Mistral, which is starved for money and would rather stay on the good side of the European commissioners and oligarchs?
dkiebd··on Gemini 2.5 Flash Image
That wasn’t a bridge.
dkiebd··on SSL certificate requirements are becoming obnoxious
SSL certificates are not only used by HTTP servers.
dkiebd··on Prison isn’t set up for today’s tech so we have to do legal work the old way
It’s Semanal, not Seminal. Seminal amusingly translates to “related to semen”. Even more amusing when Paquete can also mean “crotch”.
dkiebd··on FCC bars providers for non-compliance with robocall protections
What happened here is that the dealership sold that girl's data to many companies. You can tell one of the companies to stop calling, and they will happily remove you from their database, but there are many of them with your phone number.
