>China ban facebook, google and other big tech companies from china

2019-05-25 11:20:06 UTC  

>to open a business in china, a chinese company needs to have 50% stake in the company and the chinese can steal all your secrets

>China charges tariffs on american goods

2019-05-25 11:20:43 UTC  

>America says hey how about we trade each other without tariffs? also stop stealing our technology

2019-05-25 11:20:45 UTC  

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

2019-05-25 11:55:14 UTC  

considering tho they never had foothold at china in first place

2019-05-25 11:55:25 UTC  

can they then be banned ?

2019-05-25 12:00:22 UTC  

yeah because they were banned from entering in the first place

2019-05-25 13:13:50 UTC  

you cant ban unless you have permission to be in first 🤔

What has happened to the $300 16 core ryzen

2019-05-27 06:45:39 UTC  

Ayyy

2019-05-27 06:45:46 UTC  

They know they can charge more

Beijing itself isn’t without options. Some speculate China might retaliate against the ban of Huawei -- which may widen to include some of its most promising AI firms -- by in turn barring America’s largest corporations from its own markets. Apple Inc. could relinquish nearly a third of its profit if China banned its products, Goldman Sachs analysts estimate.

Ren said he would object to any such move against his American rival.

“That will not happen, first of all. And second of all, if that happens, I’ll be the first to protest,” Ren said in the interview. “Apple is my teacher, it’s in the lead. As a student, why go against my teacher? Never.”

holy shit

2019-05-28 06:10:10 UTC  

intel's getting RAPED

2019-05-28 06:10:39 UTC  

ARM's new processor BEATs Intel's ultra thin i5 lineup

2019-05-28 06:10:56 UTC  

even at emulating win32 apps

2019-05-28 06:11:36 UTC  

this means future ultra thin and light laptops will be using ARM CPUs

2019-05-28 06:11:45 UTC  

and apple replacing intel with it as well for their macbooks

2019-05-28 06:47:17 UTC  

<:you:265281777168416768> unironically taking these benchmarks as facts

2019-05-28 06:47:41 UTC  

in a curated benchmark by qualcomm, in memory and gpu bound applications, while running a newer OS and at a lower resolution

2019-05-28 11:12:05 UTC  

Still reasonable to be excited. The difference in battery life is ridiculous, even when you factor in the lower resolution display.

2019-05-28 11:51:36 UTC  

except if in the real world it's twice as slow and you're negating battery usage by waiting for everything

2019-05-28 12:02:30 UTC  

I beg to differ quite an bit

2019-05-28 12:02:50 UTC  

If it's twice as slow you might just want to scrap some task (like gayming or heavy photoshopping)

2019-05-28 12:03:14 UTC  

And some other tasks will 'feel as fast' because the difference is minimal (text editing, spreadsheet etc)

2019-05-28 12:03:52 UTC  

I'm quite doubting the performance benchmark of qualcomm, mind you, but even at half the performance of the i5 it might be a good option if the battery performance is twice its competitor

2019-05-28 12:04:32 UTC  

It's just not gonna be a high end laptop

2019-05-28 13:17:51 UTC  

^

2019-05-28 13:18:11 UTC  

Using a laptop for anything other than business tasks is, as far as I'm concerned, deeply retarded.

2019-05-28 13:35:27 UTC  

why not

2019-05-28 13:36:33 UTC  

Depends a lot on what you want to do but since I expect the answer to be anywhere near gayming it's gonna require components (mainly a graphic card) that's gonna be shit and super expensive

2019-05-28 13:37:56 UTC  

+ whatever underlying (air flow/temperature management, battery life is gonna be hot garbage, weight, etc etc)

2019-05-28 13:39:59 UTC  

Piss poor for media consumption (tiny screen by necessity, or you're going to be hauling a fucking monster-laptop). As above, it's fucky for gaming (performance / heat dissipation / cunty keyboard / screen once more).

2019-05-28 13:40:18 UTC  

For photoshop tasks, screen AGAIN.
