So which is it really?
The problem with this post is it mixes contexts and tries to apply rules to one context that only fit the other. Do you need a scope to do your job? no? great.
Do you need a scope to understand and debug things? Yes, but you can avoid this complexity by "throwing it away and buying a new one", but of course, you're just outsourcing the complexity to someone who has already found a solution, cheaply.
But maybe that solution isn't cheap... out comes the scope.
So either you're capable of using a scope and saving yourself time and money, or a scope is just more complexity then you're willing to wrap your head around.
Whatever path you choose, there is only one that is the path of an engineer, the other path is of a hobbyist.
The OP is basically saying "I trust the documentation and that's good enough for me in my job to solve a majority of the problems I see"
So what the OP is really saying is he doesn't do anything groundbreaking, and he's ok with accepting the status quo of performance offered in consumer devices. He sees no value in understanding fundamental concepts that everything is built upon because as far as he's concerned, IC technology has been perfected. If there is something going on that isn't documented, well it's probably best that he doesn't dig into it.
Or to state it from another perspective, OP just doesn't care anymore, he's sick of dealing with problems that shouldn't even be manifested at his level in the tech food chain, yet here is with a fucking oscilloscope trying to debug IR interference from a misaligned coil or something, or what may presumably be a hardware failure with some hidden DRM enforcement IC that can't legally be documented due to DCMA restrictions around Intelectual Property that is of national security interest.
What ads I view are none of my business.
Because the only way to find an app on the iShit interface is by name, a name your friend told you, then you can't find it because the search doesn't actually give any relevancy points for exactly matching what you typed.
I wonder if the Amazon android marketplace has this issue. I wonder if anyone even cares.
Every device I've seen has a disclaimer in the EULA that says "we will gather and sell your data to medical insurance companies with your name attached so they can charge you more accurate rates"
Sure is strange though how both NVidia and AMD announced their cards shortly after the adoption of TLS 1.2 by major American e-commerce websites and web browsers.
How strange that it just happens that WiFi encryption standards fall with the power of last generation cards... Just a coincidence, I'm sure.
I'm fucking furious and I'm wondering who's going to step up to fix this clearly hugely impactful news that seems mostly absent from above the fold..
I'd love for you to try to conceptualize why having bells and features is an acceptable trade off to having a surveillance back door in your home.
Crazy idea: what if it had the bells in whistles without the backdoors? Wouldn't that be a better device? Not that you're a thinking, critical person.
Afaik, cooler master are the best from a price/performance ratio, where you get like 90% of the performance of a Noctua for half the price. It's like they never include this brand because it would be boring having it win the quality prize every time.
I'm sure this is intentional. That's why they're not fixing it until next version, when they can implement a new backdoor that isn't so easy to find before onboarding the new clients (NSA). Same type of shit from Microsoft and Oracle delaying zero-days. "oh yeah we can fix this obtuse, barely exploitable and complex exploit in an emergency out of cycle release" "oh, but, no. this obvious out of bounds issue with a trivial satiny check fix with exploits in the wild that convenient make investigators jobs much easier can't be done until 6 months from now"
yeah... ok.
The internet works fine as a LAN. Modern commerce and society, not so much.
We already know that adding complexity to the network only leads to more congestion. Why a renewed push down this path? Because some are determined to make data as expensive as possible.
What we need is dumber networks, at the same time, more flexible networks. the idea that (parts of) the network should be aware of things like the context of a message or network conditions, by drawing loose comparisons from biology is simply a human's attempt to enforce his will upon the physical world. No matter how hard you try, E=MC^2 even if you build a virtualized platform where it doesn't.
