AM4 is the greatest CPU socket that has ever been created.

The fact some shitty athlons were sold on it, but also something like a 5800X3D that has held up so well that some people are still willing to pay this much years later is astonishing to me.

Question is, though, who now isn’t on your blacklist?

Samsung and SK Hynix never sold to consumers directly, yet seem to be avoiding flak. Micron is now joining them in that.

Who do you get that isn’t that three? Almost all RAM on the market is Samsung, SK Hynix, or Micron.

On top of that, Samsung and SK Hynix were the ones that signed the OpenAI deal (OpenAI bought 40% of the world’s DRAM supply and kicked off panic buying), so tbh Micron is the least responsible for the current DRAM market issues.

Motherboards seem to have a normal amount of slots though?

Not like you can populate them all anyway, though. Use one modern (i.e. oversized) graphics card and it seems to block three slots.

Linux users, united?

People in this community will cry over what init system or desktop environment somebody else uses.

British, not English.

I’ve been using it since 2016 and the only issue I’ve had (which has been fixed for a while now) was screen sharing in Discord.

It’s true that there are a couple of things missing or unstandardised as of now, but there’s also plenty missing from X11, so it’s swings and roundabouts.

There aren’t many distros that don’t have it by default.

Debian, a distro literally memed about for moving slowly, has defaulted to Wayland since 2019.

It is off by default.

It’s literally in their original post.

The alt-text tagging is pretty amazing according to my sister (blind), too.

Good thing it’s open source and we’ll immediately see that they aren’t doing the thing you’re claiming.

No, they won’t be used at all, and will be hidden from view, if turned off.

Alt-text generation for screen readers (amazing feature)

Private, offline translation (amazing feature)

Chatbot sidebar (I have very little use for it, but some may like it)

All of these are opt-in.

That stuff is commonly included in the AI umbrella.

Does anyone even talk about what the “AI features” are?

The one I use the most is their offline translation. I don’t have to send my data to Google Translate.

My sister (blind) uses the new screen reader stuff a lot.

Mozilla is certainly adding good AI features, but the chatbot integration isn’t something I have much use for.

Not implementing any AI is stupid.

I for one appreciate having offline, private language translation. Sending it to a Google Translate server is a privacy nightmare.

My sister appreciates the better screen-reader functionality.

Plenty of people do want AI features.

This has been part of the news since the very beginning.

That’s literally not true, though? They’ve spoke about it for ages.

Huh? The board ousted him when his political donations came out

Huh?

Micron is one of the big three DRAM producers.

And the South Koreans aren’t lowering production, unless you mean DRAM specifically in favour of HBM for the datacentre/AI market (which is what they are doing), that would be crazy given the level of demand, it’d just let competitors take the market. Samsung and SK Hynix are expanding fabs, but they’re not expected to be operational until 2027.

Blatant misinformation being upvoted lol
