Fingerprint and FaceID are both vulnerable to physically overpowering the authorized user — trivially — to unlock it. Passwords are (well, can be, if you're competent) much more secure for circumstances short of actual torture.
We know that the boards were compliant because Intel won't sell chipsets to anyone who doesn't follow their rules. Hardware Unboxed was exercising extreme diligence to confirm that Intel hasn't specified which power limits they're ok with. The whole market stack is captured, which unfortunately for intel leaves them with nobody to blame but themselves.
The only way intel could escape liability for this problem would be if some of the board makers were falsifying data to pass the conditions (like VW with their DEF emissions fraud scheme), which hasn't been alleged.
That's a great car analogy because it involves a car. Here's a better one.
Ford: Buy our 500hp engines, it will allow you to drive 200mph!
Dodge: We plan to hit 210mph by using Ford's engine. We are going to run it at 50,000rpm and will be saving costs by using no radiator.
Ford: Sounds great, we will tell everyone to buy a Dodge!
Probably because of the 20 minutes of script reading. If I wanted to waste my life listening to a drone read I'd call customer service.
MSI was one of the makers pushing infinite power on all their boards and this advice is not current. I'd expect their aberrant results to be an indicator of some other configurations that are quite unreasonable.
The Chinese don't want to spend their annual salary on a phone known to fall apart just so they can look cooler than their neighbor?
As an early beta-tester (read: customer) of Ford's attempt at making a CVT transmission, please stop giving them ideas.
Article is about intel's approved rules and bios's bricking CPUs, not boards failing due to inadequate VRM's. If you had the same problem, then even after replacing the board your problem would persist, except that board likely is ewaste-by-design everything soldered on-board so you accidentally replaced the whole system.
It's the fault of the motherboard makers for using the chipsets exclusively allowed by Intel with a bios explicitly approved by Intel while following the rules drafted by Intel.
The common failure when all your decisions must be approved by some outsider is to stop doing your own oversight. Of course the board makers should have done better, but it's 1000% intel's fault for failing to use their position to actually protect their products and customers.
how much is the cheapest TV today compared to the 90s
You can't eat your TV. You can't drive your TV to the grocery store. You can't take your TV into the bank and get a home loan, nor can you take your TV to a home seller and get a reasonable price. You can't hand it to the university and be handed back an education. You can't give your doctor your TV and receive surgical or even preventive care or the meds you need.
Your problem (other than the root one of spewing disingenuous nonsense) is that you're looking at the pricing in the electronics sector and pretending it's representative of the extremely high basic living costs I called out (which of course it is not) — nowhere did I say anything about either the pricing of electronics or the need for a TV to achieve a reasonable cost of living. Nor should you have. But here we are.
"Women over 40 have the lowest birth rate" shouldn't come as a shock to anyone
Older does tend to mean wiser, after all. Well... okay, for some people.
Destroying middle class has predictable consequence of tanking birth rate. News at 11.
"We must have constant inflation or people might, you know, save!"
Then... basics cost (a lot) more and mid- to low-tier wages don't even come close to keeping up
Brutal housing, education, medical, food, vehicle, and fuel costs, crushing taxes on the lower tier workers... gee, sounds like a great circumstance to bring some ever-more-expensive rug rats into.
The "American Dream" is deader than Trump's diaper contents for a large swath of those of an age to be pumping out crotch goblins. But hey: The stock market is doing Great!
Or perhaps it's just that no one wants to hump someone with their pants falling off their butt — or otherwise dressing like a refugee.
Obligatory: get off my lawn.
Every change looks like corruption in the eyes of people who don't like it.
And corruption looks like evolution to some people.
Personally, I'm in favor of words meaning as much of the same thing over time as possible. It enhances communication and understanding. If you need a new meaning, you either need a new word or you need to explain yourself at a bit more length. Lest you "decimate" (cough) the listener's/reader's understanding... you get me?
