wait a bloody sec, I thought his comment was still somewhat relevant to this thread? why does he need to create a new one to ask the OP what he has upgraded in his Dell workstation?

1. it's not really surprising, been the "case" since the start of the M-series. 2. M4 only seems to beat other stuff in terms of battery life, efficiency, and performance in apps that are optimized for Apple stuff? there's a reason why gaming is still not popular on macOS... (though that will...

both he and you didn't even specify which Thinkpad model you two have.... so one of you could have a cheap model made in 2022, while the other could have got a high-end one

yeah, well, you either don't know where to look (for example, there are native open-source engine implementations for Doom, Quake, Morrowind, etc. on Android, and there have been Android ports for games like Stardew Valley), or you are too old for Android gaming (kids these days like playing...

for... mobile games, obviously? I think the chips are made to be targeted at the Asian market (India/China/South-East Asia), which has a *lot* of mobile gamers playing Call of Duty Mobile, PUBG Mobile, Free Fire, Arena of Valor (basically just League of Legends but mobile and such), etc. and...

in their defense, you could just use something like 3rd-party drivers (like Turnip for Snapdragon 6/7/8xx or 6/7/8 Gen x, for example). Those things are used a lot by mobile gamers, particularly ones doing Nintendo Switch/PlayStation 2/Windows emulation.

hoo boy, every time Tom's Hardware post anything related to Chinese tech, there are always new accounts like you shilling for those things. Not saying they are bad, but it seems you all are ignorant of a few things: Is this the same Huawei you're talking so highly of...

and Geekbench is not even that reliable as a benchmark software, at least for PC platforms.

I don't know much about 3D printing hardware, which hardware is actually suitable for printing those lenses?

the point of those 3D-printed microscopes is NOT replacing professional ones for laboratories doing serious research, it's for home/personal use, teaching kids how cells look like, or hospitals in poorer nations that cannot afford expensive equipment...

I think there is an open-source driver for those mobile-turned-into-desktop Nvidia GPUs, though. link: https://github.com/arutar/FrankenDriver

meh, AliExpress has been pretty trustworthy in a while, especially for freaky stuff like mobile CPUs glued onto a desktop socket adapter, or mobile GPUs soldered on a desktop GPU board, etc.

I mean, it is both a bad and a good thing... on one hand, yes, other countries like India and Vietnam will be catching up for a while, on another hand... politics and censorship, lol. And, even without those problems, some Chinese laws make it illegal for tech companies to make their tech more...

I mean.... America invaded our country, after all... not to mention installing an arguably genocidal puppet regime in the South. not many people know English well enough, lol. Like, our country's English proficiency score literally just decreased last week. So, people don't really dare to be...

eh, as a Vietnamese.... our country isn't that bad. Yes, there is not much democracy. Yes, our government does abduct activists who are already out of the country for "anti-government talk". And, many people in here are quite unreasonable, politics-wise. Nevertheless, at least we are far more...
