No need to discuss defecit. That’s a totally unrelated item. My statement was purely about their infra and manufacturing lead in multiple sectors.
Imagine you are a top student and some other student suddenly gets better marks than you in multiple subjects. You do need to introspect and see where you can improve (Or if you even care about those subjects).
If you don’t care about infra and manufacturing, no need to sweat
We need a lemmy instance for your country. sh.itdoesnt.work
Hours?? Lost of places (see EU, India, Japan) have instant transfers.
Percentage dont make sense when the OP posted a out solar leadership. Raw numbers is where it’s at.
The OP did not show where AI and solar intersect, because in power supply they do not. AI power infra is mostly reliant on hydro and coal
Chinese infrastructure and manufacturing lead is real. You don’t need to believe any propaganda, just travel and observe.
The asterisks are not about their usecase but political.
If it’s a revenue generating machine, the impact of 10 or 20% improvement in day to day could recoup the additional cost in a few months or a year.
Similarly, for someone who travels a lot, having a useful battery life of 8-10 hours of internet+video playback allows a work routine that is worry free wrt charging and this allows tighter travel schedules.
Ofc, this isn’t the case every time, but this creates anchor effect on several segments of the market. This also doesn’t include the extra cost of “luxury” aka thin and light or small bezels.
350 USD is perfectly fine if you don’t need a ton of battery life or color accurate screen or multimedia or multicore workloads. If you need any of this, most of the options get pricier than 700 USD. It’s not uncommon to have to shell out 1500 USD or more for the desired specs.
X code is convoluted, so much so that the maintainers didn’t want to continue. AFAIK, no commercial entity has put any significant money behind Xorg and friends. Potentially unmaintained code with known bugs, unknown CVEs and demands for permission system for privacy made continuing with Xorg a near impossibility.
If you don’t want new features and don’t care about CVEs that will be discovered in future as well as the bugs (present and future), then you can continue using Xorg, and ignore all this. If not, then you need to find an alternative, which doesn’t need to be Wayland
Oh, and you might need to manage Xorg while other people and software including your distro move onto something else.
So yeah, “xorg bad” is literally the short summary for creating Mir and Wayland
I’ve used mirror.vim for this. Pretty much similar UX as remote workspaces. Forone off editing, you can do vim ssh://remote/
Sometimes, VS Code-ium is piss poor especially over bad connections but otherwise the remote management is quite awesome
And ofc, there’s emacs with TRAMP mode
I wanted to update my family PC (technically, but I don’t think anyone else apart from me used it). Windows XP licence was too expensive for me as a kid and I found a CD ROM in my library with a FOSS OS advertised on it.
Fast forward to now, and I have been using Linux almost exclusively for 15 years now (some Windows usage needed for work or gaming)
Evil mode converts emacs into an actually usable editor
MSAA has issues with a lot of transparency and high frequency textures. Both of these are important in pushing the upper limit of quality.
TAA based methods are more smeary but also have a higher ceiling for the same content.
Lot of teams understood where MSAA is a bad fit and designed content unlike that. Sadly TAA techniques are worked around that easily for a myriad of reasons (including lack of incentive to QA)
