Intel is a disaster and needs to do the right thing by issuing a recall... but these days it seems like 9 out of 10 things we buy have time bombs in them. I worry that this would be a tough hill to climb for the plaintiffs unless Intel stops honoring warranty claims as well.

Hopefully AMD can capitalize on this to continue to drive competition into the space and make these companies invest in better engineering practices.

Somebody needs to knock these fucks down a few pegs until they hire their QA department back. I'm sick of absolute garbage software that makes it impossible to do your work even on a good day.

That's enough to power 10 time machines

Is this why Matt Tkachuk is always passionately chewing on his instead of using it for its intended purpose?

Is this like that dude who said he was hiking the Appalachian trail but was really in Argentina having an affair or something

You mean a giant platter of cheeseburgers for lunch isn't healthy?

Or Rover the dog from Microsoft Bob

Nice view. Them fires must bring the hotness.

It doesn't sound like the issue extends beyond a small number of part SKUs. It's probably more of a design flaw based on the data from Steve and Wendell. I'm waiting to see if Intel tries to gaslight everyone or actually does something honorable to resolve the issue.

It sounds like 12th Gen parts are fine and nobody is talking about other SKUs beyond the top end enthusiast parts. If someone finds a way to make a program to test for the issue that could be exciting to see how broad the problem is.

When you say a lithography issue are you concerned that everything coming from that fab line is affected? Or did you just mean the physical design has a flaw that can't be fixed in microcode / BIOS?

After seeing how at&t manages their systems, their app, their stores, and talking to tech support... This doesn't surprise me at all. This all from the viewpoint of a layperson who has used them for service for 15 years or so. Unfortunately I also have a Verizon account and they seem to also be utterly incompetent. I think it's rampant in the telecom industry to just have absolute shit for a back-end. A race to the fucking bottom. Fuck these execs that enable this shit, send them all to jail.

It works decent with rclone but a first party solution would be nice.

The audio is noticeably worse on streaming as well. They seem to put very little effort into improving streaming audio formats. DD+ Atmos is nice(r) but it's still based on AC-3.
