Right, so they could have made their satellite a lot heavier with at extra cost

I was just wondering it says that they wouldn't attempt recovery of the first stage because the payload was so heavy, 13,400 lbs and it was to GTO orbit. That sort of indicates that the Falcon 9 is maxed out at that weight. But then if you look at the Wikipedia page it says that the max weight to GTO is actually a lot more, 18,300 lb.
So, what gives? Is Wikipedia wrong?

Does that mean that they no longer need to use the main antenna as a shield when it's going through the gap?

You're right, it's just a silly click bait title. Nothing was stoled from AMD or Nvidia. AMD uses mainly Globalfoundries as a foundry, but also TSMC for some products.

I think Intel either has a yield problem, or simply that X-Point is a lot more expensive to manufacture than they pretend. NAND and DRAM have very mature manufacturing processes that are hard to beat in cost.
I think in fact that it costs a lot more than $77 to manufacture, that's why they enforce all these artificial restrictions (only Kaby lake only 200 series motherboards) - because they are selling below cost and don't want to hurt their margins too much.

I prefer the Ars technica article: https://arstechnica.com/gadget...
Gives a much more critical look at the product. The other reviews seem to be fawning over the new tech too much without doing proper real world comparisons

It's quite difficult to install Win7 on Kaby Lake or Ryzen. Those guys already had to jump through a number of hoops, so one more hoop to jump through isn't going to stop them at this stage.

I thought Moore's trade show law was that the booth babes would double each year

Am I the only one that thinks "the Dumpster Dingos" would be a good name for a band?

So, Apple has gained their own definition of the work "courageous", a bit like the Alanis Morissette definition of ironic

Can you make it brighter, so it makes my eyeballs bleed?

There really isn't a problem with gaming performance in the first place. Looking at the benchmarks I see no game tested with Ryzen that doesn't have an acceptable frame rate. Half the games tested were GPU bound anyway. And a few were actually faster on Ryzen.

Interesting discussion. He made a comment there "economics don't make sense until next year". I assume that means the cost of refurbishment is currently more expensive than the value of the booster.
