The limiting factor is not raw materials to make memory chips, but the production facilities to convert said materials to a finished product.

It takes about four to five years to roll out a new fab from scratch, even if you are an existing manufacturer.

It's absolutely worth requesting your data to be deleted regardless of where you live by claiming to live in California...

I do think it's possible that some of them won't delete your data upon request, failing to comply with the law

That's not failure to comply with the law if you don't actually live in California.

People have a legal location of residence in the US.

If you want to establish legal residency in a state, you're typically looking at doing something like spending the majority of the year there.

EDIT: I'd also be pretty confident, though the article doesn't talk about it, that California won't normally have jurisdiction for California state law unless a data broker is doing business in California, and that that will also be a constraining factor. Like, if a data broker company is only doing business in, say, Russia, the US will not enforce rulings against them regarding California state law in general.

Because AI has become so lucrative, the three major RAM manufacturers have shifted from mostly producing conventional DRAM to focusing more of their capacity on HBM, which is what AI data centers need.

The author probably wants "DIMMs" rather than "DRAM". HBM memory is DRAM too (well, I guess theoretically you could make non-DRAM memory with an HBM interface, but...)

/r/totallynotrobots was in trouble

Well, optimization takes dev time. You can use dev time for other things too

debugging, improving performance on systems with enough memory, adding features, improving security. Or not use the dev time and cost less. So it's a tradeoff.

Not to dispute the broader point that it's not common, but to nitpick, it's apparently a little more.

The UK internal affairs authority has told at least 100 people that they were given residency rights “in error”

the3million campaign group has been told that 95 people were contacted in March alone.

Yeah, I currently have a pen with about a 50% water-Nitrogen mix. It sheens less like that, but at least it isn't infuriating to use as a regular writing ink that way

doesn't hard-start if I stop writing for a handful of seconds.

I pretty much entirely use fountain pens for writing, not doing decorative signatures or whatnot. Being pretty is really just a fun plus for me; what's most-important is that it be pleasant to write with. Having the very-most-sheeniest of inks isn't really terribly important, just fun.

Nitrogen seems like a very light Cyan that is super saturated, so diluting it might change the underlying hue to something you won’t like.

It shows up as maybe a medium-dark blue at the 50% dilution point for me. Not far off the Sea of Okinawa ink, somewhat darker.

This experience did inspire me to pick up a Opus 88 Jazz so that I have one eyedropper pen as well, to mix things directly into the pen with a syringe. The TWSBI Eco I did the water-Nitrogen mix in was approximate, and I wasted ink to do the dilution, dipping the thing in water to suck some up, given that the ink was already in the pen.

I bet you could strip it down. Like, replace Windows Explorer as the Windows shell with emacs or something.

Thanks again, SimplyGreg (I was the one not happy with Nitrogen). Appreciate it!

Ehh. It'd kill browser "search text" functionality, as well as Reader Mode on Firefox.

It was made to replace lemmynswf.com but it doesn't even hold a candle to it.

I've good news for you, then. Lemmynsfw.com came back up quite a while back.

I don't have a fix for you, but a note: I dunno what driver you're using, but if it's xpadneo, as of this 2022 issue:

https://github.com/atar-axis/xpadneo/issues/374

...it sounds like even on Bluetooth, what's being done is a limited-functionality version of what the pad supports. It sounds like the kernel API presently just supports emulating rumble functionality on the triggers, whereas the game controller apparently is capable of providing (more elaborate) force feedback, variable levels of resistance at various points as you depress the trigger.
