  • RAM Shortage Expected to Continue Into Next Year or Later

    Jump

  • Vega and Radeon VII were a thing, but I doubt we'll see the like again considering they were basically panicked attempts by AMD to find something that worked. At least their efforts with Zen 1/2 took off.

  • Microsoft reveals major price increase for all Surface PCs as RAM crisis continues

    Jump

  • Windows 11’s push for mandatory Microsoft accounts is hitting a nerve with users who say the change complicates setup, privacy, and basic PC ownership

    Jump

  • Microsoft wants to kill on-prem for enterprise. Windows 11 Enterprise is a monthly subscription to your Office 365, sorry Microsoft 365, wait no Copilot 365 account. Exchange Server 2019 is the end with their subscription only version replacing it. They're retiring Dynamics on prem to move you to the cloud.

    The cloud services are parted out just right that you get almost everything you're trying to do with one package, only to need the next level up at double the price for one little thing, or an add-on service that just so happens to need the E3 version instead of E1. Oh but you can pay twice as much again for the all-in-one bundle, it comes with everything! Expect that thing you need for regulatory compliance, that's still extra. It's like they studied the predatory pricing of freemium games and went "we can do better than that"

    Selling you an OS once is of no interest to them. Monthly charges? Better but still not enough. All of your data flowing through their systems, ripe for harvesting and vendor lock-in? That's the good stuff.

  • The US government just banned consumer routers made outside the US

    Jump

  • Be glad it's not in your area or you were grandfathered into unlimited then. 1.2 TB cap with $10 / 50GB over that. Or you can get unlimited data for an additional $30 / month. Their modem rental includes unlimited data for $25 / month.

    You might also want to run a speed test. Comcast has a very small list of modems that they approve for mid split / high split for faster upload speeds https://www.xfinity.com/support/internet/customerowned That meant my own modem (which supported it but wasn't "approved") could only get ~100 Mb/s upload, but their rental hits the 300 they advertise (closer to 350 with the over-provisioning)

  • The US government just banned consumer routers made outside the US

    Jump

  • Except with their bandwidth fees I would be paying more money to use my own equipment than to rent theirs (which includes unlimited bandwidth). Not to mention there are very few modems they allow to use DOCSIS High Split for increased upload speeds even if they're capable of it.

    Put it in bridge mode, open it up and disconnect the wifi antennas and use your own gear.

  • US presidents ranked by how much of a soul it looks like they have behind those eyes

    Jump

  • It would be a relief to have a baked potato as a president over what we have today.

  • Al Jazeera investigation: Iran girls’ school targeting likely ‘deliberate’

    Jump

  • Is this where we learn some Iranian official that insulted Trump had their daughter at that school?

  • Hundreds of active-duty soldiers on standby, 2 defense officials say

    Jump

  • Well yea, they'd care.

    They'd be jealous.

  • What are some lesser known facts and hidden easter eggs in movies/TV shows?

    Jump

  • "I'm going to kill them all sir."

    I need to rewatch that.

  • Dell and Lenovo may limit mid-range laptops to 8GB DDR5 RAM in response to rising memory prices

    Jump

  • Don't worry, you'll just need to subscribe to My Windows Copilot Cloud+ to get access to a virtual PC with plenty of RAM from anywhere! It'll be powerful enough you'll barely notice us logging all your actions and blocking anything we don't like.

  • Valve confirms Steam Machine will be priced ‘like a PC with the same level of performance’

    Jump

  • The 2x48GB kit (CMK96GX5M2B6000Z30) I bought in August for $300 is currently going for $1175, and it's likely not getting better any time soon.

  • Valve confirms Steam Machine will be priced ‘like a PC with the same level of performance’

    Jump

  • The discourse around this confuses the fuck out of me. Did people actually expect this to be <$500?

  • sudo dnf remove snap

    You can also pin it with a negative priority like Mint does.
