I think it shines a really bad light on Framework, that an official BIOS update bricks the laptop and the suggestion is to replace the motherboard

Meta is facing a backlash with their glasses, why would Apple jeopardize their market lead by even considering this.

Based on the recent WAN show clip (We're Becoming Our Own ISP) , apalrd's adventures has a YouTube video from a few months ago on the steps involved in getting an ASN, then routing to different peers with all the different protocols (most prominently BGP). Hypothetically, if they wanted to double down on this idea.

I noticed Der8auer had an "Asus Equalizer" video out, testing Asus's supposed solution to the cable debacle. Admittedly, I pulled a Linus and mostly ended up reading the comments on that video and found out it's essentially snake oil.

I know some power supply brands have power supplies out that advertise safer solutions and whatnot, but now learning that not all of them are legit, does anybody know if any of them legitimately work?

Backstory: I upgraded to an RTX 5080 from an RTX 3090 in March. I'm too afraid to sell the 3090 incase the 5080 cable melts and the ram shortages price me out of the market. I do not use LLM's. I'm an anxious mofo who will pay extra for peace of mind, but I don't have a lot of time to keep sinking into reading on cables and PSU's right now, and I kinda need a homie who has already looked this up to help a brother out.

From Futurism.com:

Phia is a “personal shopping assistant” browser extension, which is designed to lead users to the best deals for clothes and fashion accessories. When a shopper uses the extension to buy something, Phia earns a commission from the retailer.

However, as Bloomberg first reported on July 9, Phia was also found to have claimed commissions on sales that never involved its product. The extension was found to open a background tab and drop its own cookie when users made a sale, while even overriding legitimate referrals.

This sounds kind of like sweet dejà vu. Maybe Linus should get on the case ASAP and warn everyone in the community lest he gets accused of being part of a cover-up.

They are certainly high quality and well-made, but I bought the largest size and they are still too tight to the point of discomfort. I got into the car today and realized that there's no way I could drive in them so I had to go back into the house and change my socks.

Has anyone had any luck stretching them out?
