Microsoft really shit the bed with Windows Phone.
The UI was great, it ran great on budget hardware and the high end Lumia lineup had some banger features, crazy Nokia cameras etc.
I had 2 of them and I really believed the OS would become a viable choice along with Android and iOS…and then Microsoft proceeded to do absolutely nothing with it for years. No incentives to build apps, no tools to port over existing versions for devs, never got an Instagram app, no push for desktop mode or a decent file system or compatibility with regular desktop apps via a translation layer for x64 (how apple launched M1), nothing.
They put no effort and just let it die. Such a shame.
I’d put some batteries in the vest pockets and say By the power vested in me I now pronounce you son and daughter. You may not kiss anyone until you’re 18


Open windows and shrink your boot partition by whatever you want Linux to take. Leave the space unallocated and delete any secondary partitions you may have already created in the first failed installation.
Then, start the Linux installation again and see if that works.
If you have a second drive that’s a much better choice because windows will regularly fuck up the Linux part of the bootloader and good luck fixing it.
Go log into windows, backup the second drive files somewhere else and format it, then install Linux there.
I just hop into my uefi menu on boot and select the windows disk to load whenever required instead of a dual boot bootloader because I know windows will not damage it


Literally the family guy color testing


What a brave effort. How can the people be so brave while their governments are such cowards?
This is Israel vs Palaistine locally, but rich vs poor on an even larger scale.


Let me guess, are we holding it wrong again?


Rare antitylenol groups win


Which is why the proverbial canary is coughing a little, but is still alive.
TSMC announced their new gigafab in Arizona is being sped up with a 100 billion dollar investment to produce and later package the latest 2nm and A16 nodes. Taiwan is always a step ahead because it makes economic sense for it to be. If that stops being the case, then the US will take the lead and China will “Hong Kong” their way into Taiwan.


Unless China starts implementing the “We don’t care” stance due to the ongoing trade war, which, judging by this Nvidia move, they’re clearly moving towards.
China cares because they have an economic incentive to care. Once that’s gone they’ll switch their tune quite drastically I would assume and due to the nature of their government structure, quite rapidly, too.


The canary in the Taiwan coal mine is starting to cough a little.
Once China has AI parity or dominance with homegrown chips and the US can produce everything locally or in allied countries, there’s little need for the current protections to remain in place.


Looking ahead, 53% of AOMedia members surveyed plan to adopt AV2 within 12 months upon its finalization later this year, with 88% expecting to implement it within the next two years.
From AOMedia website. So the plan is for it to have AV1 levels of adoption by 2028.


Yeah I mean Linux is just better
Time to put the first two amendments to the test


There are current studies about growing entire organs in a lab environment using 3D printed scaffolding and stem cells harvested from the patient, so the final product is 100% compatible and eliminates the need for immunosuppressants.
Still a few decades out for human testing imo but they’d be the first in line.
If we figure that out, artificial blood (which is already making good progress) and finally a way to regenerate brain cells without causing massive brain tumors we can extend life considerably, probably closer to 200 years on extreme cases.
Or, at least, making it to 110 while still having a good quality of life, basically making 100 the new 60.


That’s what I’m trying to convey here


That sounds like the average conversation of a group of guys on their 3rd beer on a Friday afternoon.


At what point do we return to sender?


America would forever solve its energy needs if only we could harness the collective power of all the magats plugging their ears, looking the other way and going “NANANANANA”
I bought 16gb of ddr4 for 110eu back in 2018. Welcome back to the DDR wars, with NAND soon to follow.
