I mean it’s just another tool for control, of course they are enforcing it.

About damn time!

The only thing that could make me excited again about phones is small size with under display camera (so no notch) or headphones jack with good DAC circuitry. Also groundbreaking battery tech.

If you didn’t deleted it like 5 years ago chances are that you won’t be deleting it now or in the future.

Isn’t that exactly what religions do?

And yet I see 0 ads in either of those sites.

Hi, graphic design span many disciplines and each one will have different requirements. Unless she does some short of 3D or video rendering intensive workloads GPU doesn’t matter that much. Im am UX designer (formerly graphic designer) and a powerful CPU, something like an AMD Ryzen 5800x or similar, plenty of RAM (at least 32Gb) and SSD HD (nothing fancy, anything will do) should be enough. Sadly, design software hasn’t evolved enough to take advantage of better performance.

However I’m not a Linux user (although have been considering it) so my main concern would be how the software she uses is Linux compatible or can be properly emulated without performance or stability issues. If she is working professionally FOS software won’t do it, you need default industry software.

I mainly use Figma and to lessen extent Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. Figma can run entirely in a browser but I’ve seen reports of slowdown (to the point of being unusable in some distros). Adobe apps seem to be very hard to emulate to the point of seeing people recommending using a Windows VM. So I rather start checking the software rather than the hardware.

So if a car maker releases a car model that randomly turns abruptly to the left for no apparent reason, you simply say “I can’t fix it, deal with it”? No, you pull it out of the market, try to fix it and, if this it is not possible, then you retire the model before it kills anyone.

Gotta transfer all your dirt.

Wonder if he will be able to afford a 5090 GPU by selling that jacket or would need to pony up some extra.

Has always been meme

It’s not only the myth, is the airplane crew reminding you of that every single flight. Both on takeoff and landing.

Calling AI to fancy algorithms is quite the stretch.

It’s already Saturday, I was worried there won’t be the weekly fix of miracle battery news incoming. What a relief!

I use a custom keyboard, they can add as many new keys as they want.

Sadly the fine won’t be greater than the benefits this practice brings to Adobe so they’ll keep doing it.

And then Spotify will be €50 a month because costs.

It will be phased out when it is more expensive than any other alternative. Not a single day earlier.

Don’t tell that to Nvidia.

Lost my interest 2 years ago and went PC. No regret.
