We are now at the point where lobbying looks like a moral option compared to this shit

It dropped a lot lower than that but spiked back up once he became the leader of America

Yes, that does appear to be one of his goals

They could close everything except the kernel and maybe a few libraries here and there. The Linux kernel alone does not exactly get you close to having an Android distribution.

Uh... Obviously? When people talk about wafers coming out of a foundry they're talking about processed ones...

As opposed to the one where Putin is a smart guy and a great friend to anyone who isn't just a freeloading meanie?

That's not a problem, that's the entire point. All of your personal data is encrypted and safe after a reboot until it's unlocked.

You have a point if you're talking about Dems as a whole, but both Sanders and AOC have been pushing to stand up since the beginning. They are definitely not on the list of people sitting by the sidelines and letting it happen.

That's looking increasingly like a big "if", unless you mean a Russian style election.

It's not known either way yet, but unless they offloaded it to a separate firmware like Nvidia or Intel, it's not possible for them to do in Linux due to HDMI patents. The way the other vendors avoided this is to use a separate component that does everything internally, so none of the code is in the drivers. AMD doesn't do that historically, and thus can only support such features with closed source drivers/OS.

Will it? They'll just say it's Biden's fault and enough people will buy it to prevent an organized protest.

I mean, if you can get a 50 series card at MSRP then do, the scalping sucks but otherwise it's still a slight perf/€ win over 40 series.
