    Stock Market Concentration Has Surpassed Its 1930s Peak. Should Investors Worry?

  • I've been buying mid-range devices since mid 2010s (Nexus 5, Xiaomi Mi A1); mid-range devices were fine then and even more so now. The one drawback was camera quality, but IMO this has been resolved. These days I stick to the Samsung A series. I bought my A73 in mid 2022 and I see no reason to upgrade (although battery charge is starting to become an issue, although it's manageable). It's too bad Samsung sunset the A7X series.

    I can't imagine spending more than $500 - $600 on a smartphone (and even that is pushing it past the optimal spot on the price to performance curve).

    Nvidia still hasn’t sold a single H200 to China nearly three months after getting the green light from the White House — U.S. Commerce official says department hasn’t approved any sales during a House

  • Using Google Sheets allowed the group to evade detection and blend into normal network traffic and was not a compromise of any Google product, the company added.

    How is that support to work? I understand using Google Cloud, but what's so special about Sheets (or any cloud spreadsheet) that helps you with hacking agencies and organizations?

  • Moving away from American corporate technology is a must for any society that values freedom (in the real sense, not in the polemical sense often used in the US).

    Irrespective of internal US political developments, de facto support and enablement of corruption and criminality will remain an unfortunate problem with a significant part of US society.

  • The company is also reportedly working on a “smart lamp” — but whether OpenAI is actually looking to bring it to market, let alone if such a product could conjure any enthusiasm among consumers, remains unclear.

    A smart lamp? They are really out of ideas on how to build a separate "AI enabled" hardware device.

    I have a feeling Altman wants to launch a modern equivalent of the iPhone (even though powerful smartphones existed way before the iPhone, I was using J2ME Gmail, Google Maps in 2004. Some websites even had a mobile version).

    OpenAI's Hardware Device Just Leaked, and You Will Cringe

  • This was probably a requirement of some sort. I doubt the government would bother with something like this on their own initiative.

    That being said, there are some really good sources for "unofficial" content in Ukraine. All the major international and local streaming content and major blu-ray (Rips/Remuxes) release in one spot and with speeds that allow streaming torrents (at least in Ukraine).

    Some of the more niche content can be difficult to find (smaller country, local sites have requirement that Ukrainian dub/VO/subs must be included in addition to the original audio track), but you're not going to find that content on mainstream US media sources.

  • I don't think it's possible to get even just the Bill of Materials for the PS5 down to $250 (even without elevated prices for RAM and SSDs).

    There are too many costs that do not scale with less powerful components.

  • Does anyone even use crypto.com? The impression I get is that is that this area is dominated by other brands/platforms.

  • Even with the boom in enterprise GPU sales, one would think it's shortsighted (in terms of risk management) to not try and strengthen their position in the consumer market.

    The worst thing is that it doesn't seem to be a hack and the solution pretty much work already.

  • I would imagine a Pi Zero is significantly more powerful than a 1999 desktop system.

    Pi zero has a 1Ghz single core and 512 MB RAM. 1999 would be a P3, which started out from 500 MHz and I believe RAM was less 512 MB at that points.

    And that's just high level figures, that ignore faster RAM speed, massive improvements in IPC / CPU microarchitecture.

    I would even speculate the hypothetical 3D capabilities of 1999 desktop could probably be simulated in software.

  • This is probably some organized pump and dump type scheme by key players.

  • He got greedy and complacent. He forgot that corruption/crime is far more risky if you try to steal from well connected oligarch gangs.

    Running away to China would have been a far smarter move. That's one place were American entities can't reach you no matter what (I believe China didn't do anything about local Fentanyl precursor suppliers until the issue became high level).

  • You're welcome to discount what I am saying. To be honest, it sounds like you've made up your mind on this issue, even though you're getting a lot of basic things wrong about market research and sanctions processes and corporate attitudes.

    Can't really help you on this one.

  • Congrats!

  • That's really too bad, even without any technical knowledge of the code sharing system, it's clear that this approach is done in bad faith.

  • I would much rather European companies ported their applications and services to a non-Google/non-ASOP platform. Having native e-government and applications would be a solid addition to make something like Sailfish OS more usable.

    This is one area where European and Asian countries are way ahead of the US, things like e-govermernt (parts of Europe), simple and no/very low fee mobile payment systems (parts of Europe, India's UPI system).

  • I am not trolling you. If what I said is a mere statement of personal opinion (and not tied to reality), then it should be simple for you to show why what I am saying is BS.

    Instead you're just going with "I am right! You're wrong!" and you claim to not see the irony in that? Don't buy it!

  • Come, on! I don't believe you don't see why I used the term "irony" in my post.

    Sorry. I don't buy it. You might disagree with what I am saying, but you almost certainly know why I thought your "I said so" and "statement of personal opinion" pieces are ironic.

  • I strongly disagree.

    I explained my reasoning with some clear examples. And that's just the tip of the iceberg, I am not going to write a 2,000 word wall of text unless I am having an interesting conversation.

    There’s no such thing as common sense. Its just a way for people to claim their ideals as the standard because “I said so.”

    I wonder if you see the irony in this statement and how it was presented "I said so". :)
