To be it looks like Australia’s getting the better end of the deal with Tuvalu essentially agreeing to be a military foothold of Australia in the Pacific.

As an Australian who’s travelled a fair bit I’d say the level of racism in Australia varies depending on where you are and most parts of the world I’ve visited are more racist than the major cities of Australia. But that’s just my personal observation.
That’s absolutely not true. The M3 Max just about brings Apple performance up to similar levels as Intel and AMD. The Ryzen 9 7945HX3D for example is a laptop processor which trades blows with the M3 on benchmarks - single core the M3’s slightly faster and multi core the Ryzen’s slightly faster - and in performance per watt the Ryzen’s marginally better. So really it’s just catching up with older laptop processors from other manufacturers.
And if you venure outside the laptop space to compare ultimate speed it’s nowhere near the fastest, particularly in multi-threaded. Its multi-threaded performance is around 13% of the AMD EPYC 9754 Bergamo for example.
The base load argument doesn’t hold water any more - not when there are places which are progressing towards being totally free of base load. Eg. South Australia is already nearly all renewable power with in-fill from batteries and transient gas power when needed. They’re still currently getting some base load from other states but it’s small and gradually being phased out.
They’re not economically feasible anywhere right now. Unfortunately nuclear power is very expensive compared to all the alternatives. Unless there’s some radical breakthrough I can’t see much nuclear being built in the future. No company would pay such a huge up-front cost to produce uneconomic electricity.
So the strict answer is - no, they’re not feasible everywhere. And also not feasible pretty much anywhere.
Hilariously non self aware.
But they don’t want anyone to get out.
It’s actually 25. But it’s amazing to think that people in Florida can get 30 years just for possessing some weed. I think it might be the US that has the problem here.
Remember the Samsung battery issues being all over the news a few years ago and everyone saying, “Apple never has these problems”? Meanwhile Apple was literally breaking people’s phones to reduce fires and paying people off to keep quiet about their battery fires. Nice. 🔥
Is this a thing that actually happens?
“Strange… that sounds like the kind of thing a racist would say.”
Post-1980s tech companies maybe. But not most companies, no.
USB is the new defacto standard DC outlet. It’s only suitable for fairly low power though.
Wow. That’s horrible. The US health system sounds like a dystopian nightmare.
there’s basically nothing out there for laptops that comes close to the M2 Pro
The Intel Core i9-13980HX laptop CPU is between 20% and 100% faster than the M2 Max on nearly every benchmark.
Basically few to non-existent cases where M2 is faster than either Intel or AMD’s best. On power consumption however it’s a total win for Apple. But performance… No. Not in any way.
I don’t think 41 states realise that kids wouldn’t touch Facebook if you forced them. Instagram on the other hand…
Because they often don’t get updated when security updates become available
That so ridiculous it’s funny as hell.
