Actual scoop:
- Supreme Court ordered social platforms to register locally by Aug 28 or face shutdown
- 26 platforms blacked out; only TikTok & Viber complied
Gov’t stance on VPNs:
- Official decree labels VPNs “unregistered tunnels” and “cyberthreats”
- State media warns: using VPN is unsafe, illegal, may lead to fines or arrest
Why it matters:
1. Freedom of speech wiped out for 30M Nepalis
2. Creators & small businesses lose income overnight
3. People forced to VPN risk legal trouble on top of surveillance

Terrain. I implore you to look at Nepal's geography. Some villages take a few days trek to reach from the nearest airport assuming you even get a flight. It's not impossible, but takes significant manpower and willpower. Some villages are also just a few hundred people and the biggest parties have existing bases there. A lack of law and order means that during election time people are literally out threatening opposition candidates. You'd only need a few scores men and some modern weapons to take over the Western Hills and mountains of Nepal, which was exactly what the Maoists did.

brand new thinkpad was never worth the price especially for an individual consumer. Linux drivers also gets better the older the hardware is. Even more when you don't really need gpu.

Right now the sweet spot is buying 2021-2022 thinkpads. Just get T14/T14s /X1 Carbon/ P series from that time frame which suits your taste.

This is my biggest concern.

While privacy education would be great, the only people who will listen will be privacy educated individuals.

The counter-point is that, maybe those individuals will spring into action to do something about it for their setup.

Is it worth getting a Silicone Valley job if they just work you to the bone?

Pratik Pandey was found face-down in the early hours of August 20 in Mountain View, California, inside the Microsoft campus, The Palo Alto Daily Post reported.

An initial report from the Santa Clara County Medical Examiner seen by the outlet indicated that the 35-year-old suffered a heart attack.

His uncle, Manoj Pandey, recalled Pratik as being a bright, hardworking young man but said he was known for staying at work well into the night.

Pandey told the outlet that the tech giant and other firms need to be aware of the dangers of overworking and helping employees deal with stress and pressure.

He told the Daily Post: 'That will probably save a life. It's a lot of pain for the family when a loved one passes away.'

Read up on thirdies doing business. They always try to work subordinates to the bone because that's their proper place while the boss has a golden spoon and a harem. A lot of this line of thinking has probably made its way to the west, in particular jeet operated Microsoft. When America was at its best people did their job and when it was done, they could fuck off home. Orientals that tried to establish a foothold in America got promptly told to fuck off by the workers. They continued whipping their own workers to death in their own countries until a lack of progress left them and their businesses behind.

So, it happened AGAIN. We can blame paper launches, we can blame scalpers, we can praise AMD's efforts but the truth is it's simply not enough. MSRP, steam survey figures, you name it, it all stinks.
Don't get me wrong, I still have full faith in Lisa Su and the lads, but MASSIVE restockings are desperately needed in September. Otherwise I'm not very optimistic about the RX 9070 GRE, or it outselling the RTX 50 Supers for that matter. Not shipping like this. What do you think, /pcbg/? #RadeIN or #RadeOUT?

"UDNA" is just CDNA merging changes from RDNA by the way
it is gfx12 but with two CU bundled together and a new cache structure
CDNA will continue to have HPC and matmul variants.
then retarded gamers will be surprised that somehow AMD made their gaymer chips good at upscaling when all they did was add a 2 big matmul blocks per shader array instead of one
>>
>>106486670
they knew it from the beginning, the rx 5700 xt is a regression, they sacrificed peak performance for ease of use, vega II is more performant than rdna 1 in basically every task when optimization is performed, the only thing that they really resolved with rdna was the bandwidth efficiency, but they ended up using a huge l3 cache anyway making the cu and cache changes redundant imo.

Are you trying to say that AMD rigged the game against themselves on purpose? Was the Raja hate justified?
>>
Sorry Jensen, I have a 9070XT I got launch day at MSRP, it's been great and I still wont be buying nVidia.
>>
>>106488289
they made a mistake, raja is probably the cause, nvidia invested heavily in compute/ai which extends to to their consumer products, vega and earlier gcn products follow the same path. rdna's design focuses on traditional gpu rendering, less on peak compute, the thinking was that they would do better with specialized architectures for both markets (cdna for compute/ai , rdna for consumer graphics) , but in practice they basically kneecapped themselves on the consumer side
nvidia used their compute for technologies like dlss, framegen and denoising for rt, all of which require more compute than rdna 1 and 2 can offer, rdna 3 brings some of the capability back and rdna 4 expands on it, but if you look back at vega II amd already had quad-rate int8 in a consumer graphic chip, which offers a big speed up for AI workloads, so essentially the reason amd has not been able to release an ai based upscaler and lagged behind with rt until now is likely because of the move to rdna. . IMO there is a good chance that udna will be based mostly on CDNA(gcn/gfx9) rather than rdna for this reason,

Pros:
>Strong sandboxing/isolation improves security.
>Widely supported across major distros (especially Fedora, GNOME-based distros).
>Uses Portals apps can request access to files, devices, etc. in a controlled way.
>Good integration with desktop environments.
>Flathub is a central, well-maintained app store with lots of apps.
>Auto-updates supported.

Cons:
>Flatseal has the potential to change the permissions of other flatpaks at will. Essentially, a flatpak with the ability to change the permissions of other flatpaks. It is rendered to be "Potentially Unsafe" with "Arbitrary Permissions" with access to "User Data" subfolder flatpak/overrides, Can read and write all data in the directory" and "Arbitrary Permissions, Can acquire arbitrary permissions".
>Larger disk space usage (apps bundle runtimes + libraries).
>Slower startup compared to native apps (sandbox overhead).
>Strong desktop focus not ideal for CLI/server software.
>Relies heavily on Flathub (centralization concern).

Flatpak doesn't have good enough sandboxing. For example it doesn't clear graphics buffers when allocating graphics memory when it has been freed by another program. This allows you to get the frame of other applications or the screen. You can even get the frame that was used by windows if you dual boot and reboot.
Almost all major flatpaks, the ones that are the most popular need user home directory read/write access, which allows them to install LD PRELOAD malware to inject malware into all of your applications, and it can even be used to overwrite sudo to install malware to your root user and run it as root.
