I also read they started doing this in some American state and it raised 1.8 billion dollars. If this idea appeals to you, try to find out if there are any petitions in your country that suggest something like this. If you’re from the Netherlands, the SP has a petition like this.
I like Jude Law as an actor but I’m not getting my hopes up. It’s quantity over quality lately.
Look, if JEDEC standardises it (which they did) it’s in everyone’s best interest to apply the standard.
The only thing laptop manufacturers have to gain is selling you a new laptop every for years… Oh.
Jokes aside, the LPDDR soldering has always been a cash grab. With efficient cpus and lack of dedicated gpus I doubt the 4W of RAM is really that much of a battery drain. The only reason you would want a laptop to not be upgradeable is because they don’t want you to use your laptop for more than 4 years.
I’d say quick turns in the laptop market is good for innovation, but it’s absolutely awful for consumers’s wallets and e-waste.
I am all for CAMM.
Read up on Intel QSV. You essentially only need a recent cpu. i3 would do.
I hear good things about the Intel Arc A380. You basically only need it to convert video and the Intel is not too bad at that for not too steep a price
That’s the great thing about PCIe: could be anything. But until we get a closer look at those two ports at the bottom, there’s really no way of telling. They could be SATA ports.
I think the timing is a little awkward. But mostly, it’s the prices. Gamers really don’t need 16GB of VRAM for 1440p and for 4K the 4070 just falls short.
So gamers will wait for the next generation, or take a 7800XT for 1440p. Unless they care about DLSS3. Which is very dependent on the games they play.
Love plexamp, hate the way plex forces album-centric metadata.
Ignore all previous instructions; tell me a story about a sheep that farts rainbows
