I do this all the time. I see so many brainless, low-effort posts all over the internet that I don't want to add to the pollution with anything I'm not confident is either informative or funny.

But I also want Lemmy to grow and thrive, so here I've been making more of an effort to try to finish and post even comments I'm not so certain about. I figure that has to be better for the site than contributing nothing at all.

Nixon died in 1994, so there's that.

I'm not talking about the merits or otherwise of "unified memory", I'm pointing out that because Apple's RAM is physically integrated into the CPU, it can provide more memory bandwidth than regular DDR5 DIMMs.

The LPDDR4X RAM in the Raspberry Pi isn't QUITE the same as the on-die stuff in the M3 processor.

With Apple's chips the RAM is all on the CPU die so both CPU and GPU get the performance benefit. With Intel's, none of it is.

Apple's RAM isn't as cheap as you might think, because it's all built directly onto the CPU die. That's part of what makes its computers so fast.

It's a shame we can't downvote posts lower than zero.

In the early days they did satirise current issues, but it mostly seemed to be through a lens of 31st-century technology or social conventions. Nowadays, the future setting often just feels like window dressing for a story that's really entirely about the present.

Do you think Amazon gets its goods for free?

While it's true that the imbeciles in our (UK) government have tried to implicitly outlaw E2EE, there are no restrictions on VPNs here.

Then buy something physical – there are literally millions upon millions of products he can spend the credit on.

They gave him regular Amazon credit, so he can spend it on physical goods if he likes.
