I’ve not looked into it, but it’s probably pitched as a feel-good way of supporting artists.
Friend of mine has a Merc that detects oncoming traffic and auto-adjusts the high beams to not illuminate other cars and it works really well. But there is always a short delay, so for half a second oncoming drivers get to enjoy the power of the sun.
No. AMD and Intel have a bunch of legally binding agreements that allow each other to manufacture CPUs that are essentially 100% compatible architecture-wise. You can install any OS on an Intel CPU, replace that CPU with one from AMD and expect things to work just the same (talking compatibility, not performance) and vice versa. The 64bit extension for the x86 architecture was created by and is patented by AMD. Intel are able to use that extension in any of their processors without paying royalties, but AMD are the owners of that specific technology. The contracts between these two companies also dictate that those contracts need to be renegotiated in case either company gets bought out, which makes me think that qualcomm would only care about buying intel because it would allow them to essentially permanently deadlock all negotiations and thus kill the x86 architecture, immediatly handing the entire CPU industry to ARM and, going by market share, themselves.
Change in leadership would also mean that the deal with AMD would have to be renegotiated, meaning that intel under qualcomm would not be legally able to create new 64-bit CPUs.
They hope to incentivise customers to use intel foundries by splitting them off. Intel compete with AMD and nvidia in many segments, so neither of these companies would want to manufacture their products at intel. But turning their foundries into a separate company could maybe change that (probably not). Their foundries also bleed money like crazy, separating them could stabilize share prices for the ‘main’ intel brand.
I disagree. Native packages are still a bit more hassle-free, but snaps have gotten really good by now. And you can do some things that debs can’t, like setting up an entire nextcloud installation with a four-words-long terminal command.
also get a dumb tv ofc
edit: despite what people will say, ubuntu is still a rock solid distro. Alternatively, tumbleweed is brilliant too.
this is insane uplift for an OS-update. the fact that it also boosts Ryzen 7000 and barely affects intel makes this even more interesting
I see, they don’t state anywhere that the results of the screenshot analysis are never transmitted to them.
Good, but as pointed out by another user, you might need to reconfigure grub after deleting the windows partition. Or save your files on an external media and reinstall debian over the entire disk if you don’t want to mess around.

No internet or cloud connections are required or used to save and analyze snapshots. Your snapshots aren’t sent to Microsoft. Recall AI processing occurs locally, and your snapshots are securely stored on your local device only.
That’s better than I thought. For the moment.
It can, but that’s not what I meant. When booting linux, do you see the blue windows menu where you can decide between debian and windows or does linux just start? If it just starts, you can just delete the windows partition (make sure to check that all important data has been copied to linux or you will loose it!). If unsure which partition it is, it’s the one with ntfs as the file system.
You could use GUI partitioning tools to just remove the windows partition and expand your debian installation. Did you install an extra bootloader for linux?
Did they make hard commitments to 100% keep the data local and never use it to spy on you? What does their privacy policy say? Come on dude, we’re talking about microsoft. You’re more likely to receive millions from a nigerian prince than to get some privacy from them.
You could do anal and read up on laws, just maybe not at once
I always worder if these sums include the fee of the lawyer. Would really be a much smaller payout if true.
It used to be a major pro-AMD reason for me too, but it’s become irrelevant since pluton. Weird thing is, pluton was announced with much fanfare for Ryzen 6000, but I’ve not heard about it since.
Edit: I just read up on this topic again and found out that both purism and system76 disable the Intel ME in all their products (don’t know if all of it is disabled, since it normally controls a lot of necessary components)
Edit 2: they can either remove most of its code from the flash, or use a disabling system that Intel had literally developed for the NSA.
Sinkholes can be negated by manufacturers using static, hardcoded dns addresses. Be careful and check traffic regularly.
