Yikes, even 1440P isn't safe. My 12GB 6700 XT is looking a bit oudated already. It barely just has enough at max settings without the fancy stuff.

250W is quite standard for pedal-assisted bicycles, no? It's also to keep in line with regulations, I think many countries have settled at 250W as the maximum.

Wow, 14kg ebike that doesn't look too bad. 60km pedal-assist range. Ticks a lot of boxes. US$1600, which while expensive, not incredibly so. Hope to see more ebikes like this.

Not familiar with the tech, but wouldn't server-side LLMs still have an advantage regardless because of the greater power available on tap? Anything that improves local LLM will also benefit server-side LLMs, wouldn't it?

~~What's a bump stock?~~ Went to read about them; the inventing company has stopped making them, are they still easy to get?

They popped up the range targets, so not as tight as a packed crowd, but you'd think at least one would get hit. My impression was that it was really hard to control the recoil making the barrel going up, so most of my rounds just went over the targets.

As much as USA is pro-gun, I thought automatics are not sold?

Regardless as the other comment says, firing on full auto is a waste of ammo. Back in service our first range practice we were given the Rambo-fantasy; hip firing at full auto at 10 metres out. No one hit any of the targets. It was a lesson to us that firearms, as easy as they are to use, needed at least some skill to be effective.

Maybe bad perception? Mediatek for a long time produced a bunch of cheap chips. Kinda like if UniSoc produced a Snapdragon 8 G2 killer, I think plenty will be sceptical, me included.

Forgot how Pro-drug the fediverse is as well; vapes should be regulated as heavily as cigarettes and other tobacco products. Just because it's less harmful doesn't mean it's not harmful.

Where were you doing COVID? That was when the phrase really was at its peak, as everyone was doing that to keep up with the news.

It does technically fufill most of OP's requirements though. xD

Windows already works on ARM, but some X86 programs are still a little slow. The Snapdragons previously used weren't as fast as the Apple silicon too, so that didn't help. The original Surface X did have a lot more problems, but Surface 9 on ARM from all reports works well.

A Surface with this and 15 hour battery life would be pretty epic.
