  • You’re getting heavily downvoted by people who obviously don’t understand how RAM works. Or how computers work?

    Guys, Apple is shitty, we all know this, but onboard RAM is the least of their anti-consumer practices.

    The problem with socketed RAM is the length of the traces going back to the CPU. That 100% reduces performance (and battery life) by a significant amount. Especially when using that socketed RAM as iGPU VRAM.

    Dell’s CAMM standard reduces the latency compared to SODIMM, for socketed RAM, but what we really need is for someone like Apple to invest R&D into really tiny RAM sockets that are super close to the CPU, instead of researching ways to lock users out.



  • I’ve been wondering why this isn’t talked about more.

    All those commercial mortgages are intertwined with banks, and retirement accounts, and all sorts of “stable” investments.

    Plus it’s not just the offices directly affected by pandemic remote work that aren’t renewing their leases. New companies wont lease a building since it’s not expected anymore, and big companies will be counting the beans to see how much they can save by reducing office space.

    This is a phase shift in commercial real estate that I don’t think banks have budgeted for.

    I’m sure everyone on wall street knows it’s coming, but if they can act surprised and get another bailout in a major crash, that’s just going to cost you and me our futures, again.
