Pisses me off no end when companies cheap out on IT equipment. I work in a place where a large number of us will be on £35 - £55k, yet the IT budget for each of us is less than 1% of our salary over 3 years.

It's crazy. Don't employ professionals then give them low end enthusiast gear.

I had this ad earlier today. Not impressed.

Can somebody ELI5 this to a normal tech person who is aware of the RISC5, but has no idea why everyone is so excited about this?

  • Why is this exciting?
  • Is there a future where this replaces x86 CPUs in the desktop / laptop?
  • Will emulation or translation layers allow x86 applications to run on RISC CPUs?

The EU specifically disallowed that in their terms.

  • Harmonised fast charging technology will help prevent that different producers unjustifiably limit the charging speed and will help to ensure that charging speed is the same when using any compatible charger for a device.

No surprise there for the winner. Felt like an odd race, some really good passing, but somehow not that exciting.

Thoughts?

There's a delayed start to 17:05 local time. That's 35 minutes later than intended.

This could be a very interesting one depending on what the very variable weather decides to bring today!

Oh believe me we will, but we have to wait for them to call an election (likely autumn 2024). They're roundly despised and they know it. They're just milking as much as they can before they're flung out of Parliament.

They're a disgrace.

Who will take pole today? Why am I asking, we all know it'll be Max ahahah. Still, the battle for P2 could be interesting, right!?

Who will take pole position in today's qualifying? Will we see a surprise pole sitter? Will we get any running at all?

I'm holding out for a competitive session, but I'd put it as 50/50 that it actually runs.

It's nearly time for lights out!

Will Lewis be able to fend of Max? Can the McLarens move forward? Will the Alfas manage to stay high up the order, and can Danny Ric score points on his return to Formula 1?

This is me. That rush when a new ROM booted for the first time, or the panic when you're not sure if you've just softbricked your phone.

Bugs? You tell me!

Simple question really! Are any of you running a Custom ROM? Furthermore, are any of you running a De-Googled ROM?

Why do you run your custom ROM, and what are the drawbacks?

I have a disease which limits what I can eat, therefor the ability to digest any food or drink comfortably.

Self hosting is much closer to gaming on Linux than Windows imo, but it's a great analogy nevertheless.
