It's not just node, it's also the design. If I remember properly, ARM has constant instruction length which helps a lot with caching. Anyway, Apple's M CPUs are still way better when it comes to perf/power ratio.

mihies ,

Here, I've found an article. M CPUs are also much more integrated, like a SoC, which gives them further performance/power advantages sacrificing extensibility.

mihies ,

What not fix all?

mihies ,

Really precise, it's just 8,0000, give or take, children and some women. That's nothing, IDF deserves a medal. /s
Also nice how you consider all dead men as terrorists, true Israel spirit.

mihies ,

At least it doesn't pollute when it burns. Hydrogen is also a decent storage capacity when you have plenty of renewable energy to store. Which is happening, just look at Norway or Germany.

mihies ,

Germany has a lot of renewable sources and it's full on building much more. You're confusing it with their dumb policy of closing nuclear power plants. They are also considering hydrogen as storage to replace coal and gas power plants during winter. Note winter, they have not much problems during summer where electricity is abundant and often has a negative price.

What does Norway being oil exporter have anything to do with this topic?

mihies ,

Because she is a representative of a certain non European country committing crimes against humanity and genocide while she sings?

After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year ( www.billboard.com )

When Bloomberg reported that Spotify would be upping the cost of its premium subscription from $9.99 to $10.99, and including 15 hours of audiobooks per month in the U.S., the change sounded like a win for songwriters and publishers. Higher subscription prices typically equate to a bump in U.S. mechanical royalties — but not...

ve ran into the same issue I’ve had with Spotify for a while - even if I download a playlist for offline usage, it’ll still try to connect to the internet, so if I was somewhere with poor reception, it’d get stuck on a spinning circle for a minute before giving up and showing me the songs I’ve wanted to play.

That's by design and all streaming apps would do it like that to enforce abuse prevention.
Edit: added word at the end

mihies ,

The thing is, you're buying from their record labels, not directly from artists. And then it depends on their contract how much they actually get. But they are still getting more from it, I guess.

mihies ,

Probably it wasn't noticeable. Imagine this scenario: somebody would pay a monthly fee, would download "entire" Spotify and then forever listen to it in offline mode. And since it's offline, artists won't get payed as well.

mihies ,

No one is being turned into a borg drone.

Yet.

mihies ,

I really do hope that this crap is handled better in EU. At least theoretically it should be.

mihies ,

One can hope, right. I just stumbled across an article in local magazine about this same issue. Have to read it and report back.

mihies ,

AFAIK with Apple it is even part of the SoC, not even soldered.

mihies ,

Stop this antisemitism right now! /s

mihies ,

Not to mention that MS completely changed their development tools and libraries more than once if I remember properly.

mihies ,

If you don't want to pay, then don't use it. Regardless of everything, music producers still need to live and pirating is a shit move to help them.

mihies ,

Kudos for paying Spotify (as I do). I disagree on "if they give me shit service" part. If that happens, you have an option to either switch service or don't use any of them. IMO pirating is not an option. Also when pirating though P2P, you also distribute the content.

Also couple of months ago: "UN picks Saudi Arabia to lead women’s rights forum despite ‘abysmal’ record"

I don't think Qualcomm can outperform Apple at CPU game out of the blue. They were always trailing behind and Apple has now three generations of M CPUs behind. It'd be nice, though.

Edit: fixed stupid typo - can't outperform -> can outperform

mihies ,

It's almost like Israel is committing genocide, I'm shocked.

mihies ,

Let's declare any successful foreign country as enemy and either ban, or better, steal their products. True market.

Tesla’s in its flop era ( www.theverge.com )

When Tesla releases its first quarter earnings this afternoon, the company’s CEO Elon Musk will field the usual questions about new products, new factories, and progress toward its futuristic vision of self-driving cars and robot workers. But Musk will also face increasingly urgent questions about its current state of affairs...

mihies ,

This is all because they failed to award Elmo with those billions. Quick, there is still time to save the company. /s

Israel media: Netanyahu fears arrest warrants, requests assistance from UK, Germany ( www.middleeastmonitor.com )

Israel’s Channel 12 revealed that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fears that the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague will issue orders to arrest him and other officials due to violations in the war on Gaza....

mihies ,

I'm not so sure since he's backed and enabled by US.

mihies ,

Follow the money. And vetos in UN. And weapons flow. And turning a blind eye. You get the idea

mihies ,

Imagine the situation where US gives Palestinians a ton of weapons while not supporting Hamas.

mihies , (edited )

OK, let me give you another analogy. US didn't "agree" with Sadam at certain point in time. Did they arm Iraq while not supporting Sadam? The point is, US is supporting Netanyahu with providing all the toys for his genocide. Saying that they don't support Netanyahu and at the same time providing all the support is funny.

mihies , (edited )

Where did those missiles/drones fly? Over same countries as Iranian ones? If so how many were shot down by middle countries? I bet none, because these were "good" ones m

mihies ,

Perhaps, but when threats, interests and money are talking it might be different. Looking forward to info about it.

mihies ,

Nobody will be fine. Israel obviously wants to drag the world into a war and US is happily helping them and once nukes start flying it's the end for all of us.

mihies ,

Yet now they are working hard on bringing that winter on.

mihies ,

I wouldn't hold my breath for Slovenia as we were been there before - all for recognition and then "meh, it can wait", I assume either Israel or US made clear that we shouldn't.

mihies ,

Perhaps they exaggerated artificial rainstorms 🤷‍♂️ https://www.cbsnews.com/news/dubai-rain-cloud-seeding-heat-weather/

mihies ,

I wasn't that serious.

mihies ,

As it turns out, US don't give a shit about democracy, it's just an excuse when leadership is not in their favor.

mihies ,

RIP net neutrality, it was nice knowing you.

mihies , (edited )

Interesting you mention civilian deaths since Iran targeted non civilian buildings. But guess who's been actively targeting civilians for past six months? And yes, Israel needs to face consequences if we want their genocide and state terrorism to end.

mihies ,

So, basically, supporting aggression, just not directly.

mihies ,

So, protecting and arming a bully that hits left and right isn't supportive of said bully and his aggressive behavior?

mihies ,

Thanks, Israel for dragging world into a war just because your genocide.

mihies ,

Hamas bombed Iranian embassy?

mihies ,

Also frequently assassinated their scientists.

mihies ,

Pitty you have only very short term memory, time to visit a doctor?

mihies ,

Seeing imaginary things is also a symptom.

mihies ,

Od course not, this is pure warmongering. Russia can't and won't attack NATO members, they lack resources big time if nothing else. They are just making empty threats here and there.

mihies ,

US aren't merely standing by and watching, they are enabling it actively.

Biden Demands Immediate Gaza Cease-Fire in Call With Israel’s Netanyahu ( www.wsj.com )

He also called on Israel to take immediate steps “to address civilian harm, humanitarian suffering, and the safety of aid workers” and “made clear that U.S. policy with respect to Gaza will be determined by our assessment of Israel’s immediate action on these steps,” according to the White House statement....

mihies ,

So, genocide is fine as long as it ours and we must keep them happy doing it.

The market regulates itself vs the importance of (EU) regulations.
