Funny how you call people idiots yet it seems like you don’t know what you’re talking about.

Yes, all points that have been proven wrong yet you fail to provide proof of that. Have a good weekend.
Remember Microsoft support is in terms of businesses. A business will not buy parts from AMD or MSI and then proceed to build the computer, they buy prebuilt computers from manufacturers, and these are in fact forced to pick parts that support TPM 2.0 since Windows 10. Microsoft could not care less if you and I get hacked, because the fact is we don’t make Microsoft any money.
Also, chances are your motherboard does support TPM 2.0. Remember most manufacturers are lazy and don’t have a dedicated TPM module and instead use firmware TPM which depends on CPU. So even if your motherboard supports TPM 2.0, you need a compatible CPU.
Please go watch any of countless Louis Rossman videos about how apple claims a device irrepairable and he fixes it for 5 dollars.
Louis Rossman complains about Apple not supplying 3rd party repairmen with the parts needed to do the repairs. He has acknowledged multiple times that you cannot expect Genius bar employees to know how to do board-level repair.
Etc. Soldered RAM
Soldered RAM is not an Apple only thing. It is for manufacturers who don’t want to support people with unstable systems due to installing unsupported RAM. Remember Apple devices are mostly one SOC with everything soldered to reduce possible points of failure.
faulty switches , bad display cable, all easy fixes that the geniuses will suggest you buy new because it will cost as much to fix. Apple is an e waste producing company.
These are design defects, every company ran by humans is allowed to make them. These are easy fixes if you know what the issue is, it is not cost effective for Apple to have a Genius Bar employee open every device and check all components with an oscilloscope to find out if it’s a faulty display cable or a missing capacitor. It is more efficient for Apple to just replace the entire mainboard, and this is expensive for the consumer because you are essentially getting a brand new computer. Yes, this is bad practice, but don’t confuse this with creating e-waste. When you hand in your computer, all recyclable parts are salvaged and used for future Apple devices, and newer devices are more recyclable than older ones.
As for scanning peoples data, it already proved that it did more harm than good. CSAm people just change behaviors ur,
Like I said before nothing is foolproof, and I don’t advocate for these measures. However, the point of these is to force CSAM people to use other services, and if all cloud services implement this, all of a sudden CSAM people have to go around sharing thumb drives or magnet links, which lowers their ability to share the files.
and you have legit people having their accounts frozen and police called when their doctor during covid asked for photos of skin rashes. It is hard for an innocent guy to live down arrest for false child porn.
Yes it is not possible to differentiate between CSAM and pictures for a doctor, and that Google incident is why Apple didn’t proceed with the iCloud scanning. Again I don’t advocate for these measures, as I’m completely against espionage, but people like to pretend like these technologies are made with the sole purpose of spying on you and that “for the kids” is just an excuse. People like that are deeply unserious because they seem to forget that if the company wants to look at your data, they will and don’t even have to tell you about it.
What I wrote there is too generalized. OEMs are the ones required to ship TPM 2.0 enabled devices since 2016, you could still build your own PCs without TPM 2.0. Remember main Microsoft customer is companies who don’t build their own PCs but buy them from manufacturers.
Apple will happily throw away a good machine to sell you a new one, their eco friendlyness and repairability scores are self scored bullshit.
That’s beside the point. They make their machines with recycled materials, and it’s a fact. There are people using 10 year old MacBooks and iPads, so I don’t think anybody is being forced to “throw away” a good machine.
Having police access to everyone's phone would not make people safer. You would not have enough police to monitor and it is a backdoor for hacking.
That was an example. What they would do is have computer scan your data for illegal content (like they planned to do with iCloud), and any flagged data would get checked by an actual person. If you think this wouldn’t help protect people, you are lying to yourself. Whether this is a privacy issue or not is not the point, the point is that “it’s for the children” is a valid concern for implementing this kind of stuff and not just something to be skeptical about.
Just like Intel Management Engine that gave hackers passwordless entry into machines. Having control like that is not safety.
You are still evading the issue at hand. I never claimed backdoors are not a security issue, I said they would definitely help protect the children, as I repeated above.
Plus anyone with physical access is going to defeat security anyway.
Obviously. The point of things like TPM is to prevent remote hacking. Who claimed otherwise? You cannot guarantee the safety of any system if the attacker has physical access. I assume your computer doesn’t have a log in password since anyone with physical access can defeat it, right?
My linuxOS has a MOC signed by microsoft, an OS can work on TPM with a signature...hackers will find a way to spoof into it
Yes, nothing is foolproof. Should we stop advancing security just because it’s not perfect? Should we stop using SSL/TLS because BREACH and POODLE exploits exist? Should we stop using passwords because someone can brute force them? Maybe we should also throw away memory and thread safe languages because there are some corner cases where they can be used in an unsafe manner? Listen to yourself.
recently Russian authorities have said that they would consider any purchase of the game an act of support of terrorism, due to “extremist hate” found within.
Misinformation. No Russian authority has said that purchasing the game is considered an act of supporting terrorism.
One government official said the game “has a chance” to be banned “if” it is found to justify terrorism [1, 2, 3]. Now obviously, you can say that’s bad enough, and that video games shouldn’t “have a chance” to be banned. You can say the truth. Needlessly manipulating quotes to make the other side look worse only hurts your reputation.
You sound insane. I’ve been using RCS with no issues from my iPhone. Of course you need to update your iPhone to the new iOS version to get the new features, what did you expect?
I honestly cannot trust game reviewers after seeing some of the reviews for this exceptional game
I don’t understand your point. Do you want them to ignore the bugs and performance issues? Would you be happier if the reviews lied to you and said the game was perfect? If they took that route, I guarantee you’d be complaining about that as well.
where the fuck was that when Starfield came out?
“They didn’t complain about that game, so they shouldn’t complain about any game ever!”
Worse, Huawei’s main production partner, Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp., is struggling to churn out even 7nm chips at steady volumes. The Shanghai-based firm’s 7nm production lines have been plagued by poor yield and reliability issues, according to another person. There’s little guarantee that Huawei will be able to secure enough smartphone processors and AI chips in coming years, the person added.
That quote is disproven by the fact that you can order Huawei phones which contain 7nm chips. If they weren’t “able to secure enough smartphone processors” the phones would be sold out, as they couldn’t produce enough. You can call that low demand or whatever, but it seems obvious that they can produce enough 7nm chips to satisfy their customer needs.
State-backed chipmakers have been trying to push the limit of ASML’s older deep ultraviolet lithography machines, the Dutch supplier’s second-best lineup (after EUVs), with the so-called quadruple patterning technique.
That requires lithographic machines to perform up to four exposures on a silicon wafer, with a total margin of error of no wider than hundredths the diameter of a human hair. Compared to EUV lithography, the multi-patterning technique with DUVs is not only resource-intensive but also prone to alignment errors and yield losses, according to Ying-Wu Liu, an analyst at research firm Yole Group.
Yes, multiple patterning techniques are not the most efficient, but they are pretty much required to work with these sizes. This is proven by the fact that every single company that makes 7nm and lower makes use of multiple patterning (TSMC, Samsung, Intel). Huawei’s problem is that they have old ASML equipment (DUV), which is enough for their customer demands at 7nm, but starts showing its age at smaller nodes.
Do you have any source on Ubuntu using Weston as its default? As far as I know Ubuntu has always been GNOME, which doesn’t use Weston.
