The north africans of roman times have almost nothing in common with the modern arab north africans. The Carthaginians in north africa during roman times were more similar to modern Portuguese.

Furthermore refining old battery material into new feedstock is far less energy intensive than getting it out of the ground in the first place.

I tend to think if the government is paying to develop new drugs they might as well do the manufacturing too.

I don't have any direct knowledge but those kind of solutions create security problems.

Unlike oil you can recycle lithium. There is only so many new batteries needed and at some point most of the demand will be fed with recycled lithium.

I think titles such as this do much damage to society by carving out separate 'us and them' spheres when in reality everyone generally has philosophical overlap with anyone else. We can disagree on the whole while finding agreement in part.

They're not that mature software wise due to the fact that hardly anyone uses them. Microsoft may save us here because Virtualization Based Security has to be enabled to sell an OEM PC with a Win11 sticker. Doing GPU virtualization in software has a big performance hit if not hardware assisted (like CPU virt). Hopefully this will twist enough arms at AMD/Nvidia that they will be forced to open up virt features on consumer cards. I asked an Intel graphics rep if virt would be supported on Intel's new discrete parts (Arc series) and they said wait until launch to see which is at least better than last year when they told me they had no plans.

Nvidia no longer throws error 43 on new drivers. AMD cards before the 6000 series also have a PCIe reset bug which forces you to reboot the host.

You could say the Same about non IOMMU CPU virtualization. The problem here is AMD and Nvidias disgusting greed that has held back security by at least a decade. GPU virtualization (vGPU/MxGPU) is supported but only if you pay ridiculous enterprise licensing. This should be a first class feature like VT-d and would enable a usable Qubes desktop and Microsoft's VBS.

MS also killed RemoteFX because of security.

It's more nuanced than that. In America calls for raising taxes are usually in the name of some public good, eg infrastructure. How true that is is up to personal interpretation. In China it's purely about power, namely removing any semblance of power held by non government entities.

'Common Prosperity' seems to mean that there are too many rich people in China that are giving too little money to the central government as their wealth usurps the power of the CCP.

I like everything about this. Hopefully hardware support will catch up to the Qubes vision in regards to virtualized GPU resources.

When it comes to IoT, never ask how bad things can be for they will surely be worse than you can possibly imagine.

When did they do this? I reset my cartidge last year.
