No, they're a lie.

The infographic is propaganda, and answers zero questions about how the factors which make up each group are actually calculated.

I have been watching Experian. There hasn't been anything unrelated to me appearing on my credit report, but my score has gone down as I have behaved faithfully and paid off my debts on schedule. Anyone who believes what FICO claims about scoring is a fool, and anyone who then goes on to repeat their propaganda for them is also a tool — and not the sharpest one in the shed.

This is very true, and perhaps continuing to close the gap is their strategy for defeating CUDA, since they sure aren't putting enough effort in to do it with ROCm. I'd love to see it, I just don't expect it to work. Happy to be proven wrong, though.

My score was 790 a year ago. I faithfully have made my student loan payments, paid off a dental loan, and increased my available credit, and my score is now about 720. Credit scores are a scam and basing anything but applications for credit on them should be a felony.

That's true, but you also can't run old Windows on new hardware, and getting graphics performance out of Windows running in a VM is only even vaguely possible with vmware. Virtualbox's video drivers for Windows are shit, and QEMU/KVM's are even worse. Hyper-V's aren't great either. So you have to keep an old machine around for old windows if you want to run old windows games on windows.

AMD has been outselling Intel in the DC for what, a year now or more?

I don't think you know what "ensuring" means

Later they when on to invent a programming language (Rust)...

You don't need lies to turn children away from religion. History and facts will do.

I wouldn't pay more than $1.49 for that brand...

We will have sham elections, like the last one, where there were Russian bomb threats.

Intel has LOTS of fabs. They need to be more like TSMC, and make ARM chips on demand.

Usually SSDs get slower as they get more full. Most SSDs do not have much additional commit space. The amounts have been tested for, we discussed it here not long ago IIRC.

Right now "society" is making it hard to even be a student. Did you know it's harder for a student to qualify for SNAP than a shiftless layabout? If they're half-time or more (usually 7.5 units) they have to meet an exemption to get food aid, while we give it to people who simply refuse to work. (That does not describe most SNAP recipients, but of course it is a percentage.)

Did you get into the bad crack this morning?

*used to compete, since Intel hasn't had any parts competitive with AMD for years now.

Nvidia is also bringing out their own ARM-based servers, so far the point is to run their GPGPUs cheaper than with amd64 but when the AI bubble collapses they may well have to pivot in that direction to keep up DC sales.

Maybe, except that their AI chips aren't as good at running LLMs as Nvidia's CUDA cards.

Can't really embarrass anyone who supports a holocaust because they're racist against Palestinians.

Making things even worse we now see MAGA flexing another muscle here to exert force on America; they are getting people all over the country fired for daring to express a non-MAGA-endorsed opinion of the matter. Yesterday ABC pulled Jimmy Kimmel indefinitely for stating a few days ago that we didn't know the politics of the shooter. How dare he suggest that the shooter might not be the left-wing devil that MAGA insists him to be!

There are endless counts of other people across the country who are losing their jobs for daring to say something disparaging on social media about Kirk after his death as well. MAGA is very openly celebrating these firings.
