I think ai leads to an accounting error in software assets. So if you book keept software at x amount of goodwill that must be written down. Reason ai can clone the software fast so the value is not what is book keeped.

Ddr4 laptops are better
There is also DDR5 CU-DIMM in some newer Dell laptops but that is rather rare.
Agree non user service parts is not good for consumers.
Use tools as d search Youtube videos memory upgrade device name before you buy a laptop to check if the memory is user upgradeable without soldering.

Please use full open source Linux distros instead. Then you could update with apt, dnf, pacman etc.

Because
a) ai companies are already high valued.
b) the showles are not digging gold at the rate claimed

Hope Sweden copies Norway and bans data fusion for ads data sharing glasses.

We should together stop calling devices which film in dressing / locker rooms smart.
These devices record video & sound track serve Ads and do Data fusion
What if you took a cam corder to a locker room? People would be upset, that is not allowed. That would not be nice. This is not nice either

I think to reduce ewaste part it should be mandatory with open firmware and open hardware specifications

glq is a re implementation gpl port of QTIP Trellis encoding of large language models as vLLM plugin. glq is efficient between 2-4 bits per word where it has an edge over scalar quantization. Fit larger LLMs on consumer hardware GPUs. glq extents QTIP up to 8 bits per word by running the original algorithm two times with a residual.
1.Incoherence processing — two-sided randomized Hadamard transform (via FWHT) makes weights ~i.i.d. Gaussian 2. BlockLDLQ rounding — sequential sweep with Hessian error feedback 3. Viterbi encoding — bitshift trellis + computed Gaussian code 4. Decode — stateless bit-shift arithmetic, fused into matmul https://github.com/cnygaard/glq/blob/main/docs/trellis-3inst...
glq comes with a user friendly installer which installs glq, vLLM and gradio chat interface and optionally a local coding agent. If you choose glq-chat glq sizes which model fits in VRAM downloads the model and starts a chat, on a 24GB Nvidia card Gemma4 is choosen. glq also ships with picode and then Qwen 3.8 27B is used.
glq also works on pure CPU. Because the LLM weights are compressed and are decompressed on the fly less DRAM/VRAM bandwidth is used.
The target group of glq is PC gamers with Linux and a Nvidia gaming card. If you happen to have an AMD Epyc 9005 server CPU the cpu encoding/decoding should be usable.

What is the alternative to subscribing to streaming services? Can you purchase your movies online and be guaranteed to have access to the movies in the future?
