That's not really true anymore, there are many programs that write the entire g-code for the CNC, all a person needs is some basic understanding for the setup. Could have a person running one with a couple hours of instruction.

Yea they arnt gonna take a loss on material and development costs. If stuff doesn't sell they will just drag out launching next gen until it does

Not sure why you think amd expects you to upgrade. They don't, upgrades are almost never worth it for cpus within 2 generations of each other. And even less worth it for gaming generally, games are very rarely cpu intensive to the point of needing a top end chip.

No... he was burning through $2000 in electricity per month. That was not a small mining set-up. Your talking probably close to 40, 3080s worth of draw. The heat alone would have been hefty.

Yea, the only benefit a nicer cable can bring is shielding and better transmission distance for long cable runs. But in no way will they make the quality better for a digital signal. So a short .5m cable like this isn't likely to do anything.

Doesn't quite work that way, low demand can actually cause a increase in prices. The machinery and development of chips is substantial. A single lithography machine can cost upwards of 250 million usd. Not to mention the millions of development cost and scrap. All of that has to be paid for...

Much of the cost? Dude that printer probably costs less than $50 to make.

Um...not the way it works? You literally gave a example of exactly what I said. Larger files = more data to load, more data means longer load times. If a drive is 35% faster then that is 35% less load time regardless of size. When broken down to a time savings, the larger the data loaded the...

Um.. dude the entire article is based on political issues.

It's 3 seconds for that game, games 5 years from not might be 30 seconds+. Future proof your build if the price is justified.

Intel cutting programs is not indicative of them running out of money, far from it honestly. These programs they cut have run near zero or even negative profit for years. Cutting wasteful costs is what a good business does. If there isn't some beneficial long term goal and it's not making...

Definitely not over paid considering people with the skills to run companies like that are a rarity. I've seen first hand how bad management can drive a company right into the ground.

Market cap is only the value of outstanding stock not owned by Intel. You would need to find out intels ownership to make that info relevant in the manner your using. Intel could own 90% of thier stock making thier market cap only 10% of its actual value.. (they don't own that much, just a example)

you did not find any data for banking power usage, so in comparison the power usage for a transaction on the blockchain is super small, pennies in power consumption. yes transaction companies just like banks have been hacked, which is why keeping money with either of them is a risk but with...

hdd companies are cutting production from lower demand which will keep prices up. your comparing the wrong capacity dude, the drives metal frame is pretty much a set cost that cannot go down in price, so when you look at cheap low capacity drives they are not gonna go down much. For instance...
