    War: Users can only afford old GPUs after miners because of Nvidia scum
    • Analyst Vivek Arya notes that 50% of Nvidia (NVDA) gamers are using a GPU that is more than five years old, while 70% of them don't have key ray-tracing capabilities, and just 14% of them have upgraded to the latest Ampere generation, compared to a typical upgrade cycle reaching 40% of penetration. Arya adds the biggest hurdle is that Ampere products are "completely sold out", because miners and government agencies take all the stock, with many selling for three to ten times the MSRP on the secondary market.

      He added that Ampere's average selling price of $482 is about 15-75% above prior Turing generations and "well above" the average of other Nvidia products between $200 and $300. Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) "Big Navi" products sell between $299 and $399, well above previous AMD products that retailed for $150 to $200.

      Nice.

    War: Sony openly says that your electric cars will be subscription only
    • As the Nikkei Asian Review explains, citing comments from CEO Kenichiro Yoshida, the subscription has already been tested by Sony not only in the gaming console segment, but also in the Aibo robots. The latter receive regular software updates, and the owners pay a monthly subscription fee for access to the service. Izumi Kawanishi, Sony's robotics business manager, outlined the company's priorities for electric vehicles: "Instead of selling hardware at a time, we will use software to create an environment that allows a vehicle to evolve over five or ten years."

      The newly created Sony Mobility division, according to the CEO, will initially be wholly owned by the parent corporation. This formulation allows for the attraction of third-party investors at a later stage. Sony's finance division could also gain more capital autonomy.

      When the head of Sony was asked whether she would attract partners for the production of electric vehicles, the head of the corporation explained that the optimal format would be chosen. Sony does not want to concentrate too many tangible assets in its hands, which opens the way for cooperation with third-party manufacturers. Both prototypes of the Vision series electric vehicles, which Sony have been showing at CES for two years, were created in collaboration with the Austrian company Magna Steyr.

    Criminals: Tim Cook salary is now big part of Apple devices price
    • Apple paid its CEO Tim Cook 1,447 times the median salary in 2021. In documents released by Apple, Cook received nearly $100 million in a year.

      The median is the salary, which divides all workers into two equal parts: the salary of some is less than the median, while the salary of others is more. Apple estimates that the median employee wages were $68,254 in 2021. For comparison: in 2020 it was $57,783, and Cook received 256 times more.

      Stop sponsoring this rich shit!

    Good quote: You can do whatever you want with a woman
    • You can do whatever you want with a woman, but she needs explanation what we are doing now.

      We go to the theater. We rest. We are resting beautifully. We eat deliciously. We are now getting ready for bed. The female body prepares for an event for a longer time and it takes longer for it to leave some state ... What kind of event is ahead and that this is indeed an event must be announced in advance. Life will be solemn and beautiful.

      “On Sunday we will get up late, at eleven o'clock, have a light breakfast, go out into the courtyard and watch the children play, by three we will be back, have lunch for two and watch the Film Travel Club, then a beautiful family dinner, served for two, with tea and sweets, watching a new series on TV and at twenty-three-thirty a festive dream. Are you happy with this Sunday? (Of course. And although this is exactly the same as on any weekend, there is a masculine clarity and conviviality.)

      And on Monday, somewhere in the evening, especially after dinner, we will make a trip to Bohdan Khmelnitsky - a real one, with a window examination, we will slowly go into the courtyards, the front ones. Very interesting. (You should say that this is interesting.)

      We'll listen to the record I bought on Wednesday after dinner. It's very interesting, great composition (which is a great composition, you must say), and then we'll sleep well. (That we will sleep well, you must also say.) And next Saturday there is a surprise. Shrimp, beer. Lovely shrimp and wonderful beer (You must say.)

      On Saturday afternoon, I invite you to a beer evening here. It will be a great evening, and it will be very interesting.

      On Sunday morning I look through the newspapers, you cook festive Sunday borscht to my music. I choose records, you listen and rate them on a five-point scale. I use the same system to rate your borscht. (It is not necessary to say "Your" - our borscht.)

      On the last week of February, we go to the theater and discuss the performance at home over a light dinner for two. Dinner will be under special lighting. I'll take care of that. We will not change, preserving the beauty and impression.

      Tomorrow we are doing shopping. We buy me shoes, that is, you choose, evaluate, I just measure. We celebrate the purchase at home with a gala dinner. We spend the evening by candlelight at the TV.

      Life takes on color. Everything is the same, but solemnly, clearly, in advance. Your girlfriend have constant feeling of a holiday. She strives home, strives from home to the store, from where she strives home, so as not to miss. And going to work is getting rare - just five times a week, and three whole holiday nights, and two huge, huge Sundays.

      Look how the sky is unusually colored today, what an interesting light. Quite still clouds. They move, of course you're right. But in what exact sequence.

      We had a very unusual week, which ended a wonderful month. In general, the year was successful. An unusually good year. (It is not far at this point to not that life is also a success.) You and I live beautifully (this must be said!). Much more interesting, tastier and more festive than the others, don't you agree? (You can't ask here. You have to assert!) You agree! So do I.

      And we celebrate the New Year on Bohdan Khmelnitsky. Awesome! We will look into the windows, observe people. It is very interesting. I'm happy for you. We need to prepare today. We will select windows, prepare apartments, outline an exact plan. Leaving the house at twenty-three zero-zero, meeting the New Year with champagne, returning home at twenty-four hours and a festive New Year's dream.

      In this solemn life, you will not understand whether you consider her an idiot, or whether she is considering you the same. But how beautiful, damn it!

    Weekend sex science: Vaginal delivery indeed loosens vagina
    • The concern that vaginal birth will result in loose vagina and negatively affect their postnatal sexual life is one of the main reasons that many women choose cesarean section. Here we aimed to implement a new device to measure and compare the intra-vaginal pressures between women who gave vaginal birth and those who had cesarean section, and to evaluate the relationship between sexual function and type of delivery by Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). A total of 165 women including 88 in the vaginal-delivery group and 77 in the cesarean-delivery group were recruited in the study. Significant differences in intra-vaginal pressures were found between the two groups, and intra-vaginal pressures of vaginal-delivery group were lower than those of cesarean-delivery group. Significant difference was also found in coitus time. However, no significant difference was found regarding sexual satisfaction and sexual function indicated by the FSFI. We concluded that //vaginal delivery indeed may result in loose vagina compared with cesarean delivery**. However, it did not negatively affect the postnatal sexual function. Therefore, women should be assured that their sexual functions won’t be affected by the types of delivery.
