I have been to all of the QC Snapdragon briefs, know the engineers personally, and have written about the shitshow on SemiAccurate.com extensively, basically I know what is going on. QC doesn't understand what they are doing and why, and there is ZERO internal impetus to change from the people on top. They do nearly nothing on software enablement because, "That is Microsoft's job". Drivers are intentionally locked down and encrypted to block Linux, and x86 compatibility is BETTER in hardware than the Mac Mx line (Same people who did the M1 and M2 did the X1 and X2, and they all just bailed on QC) but the software is.... oh look outside, there is a sky.

TLDR: No chance in hell there will be a fix.

Why do they not just migrate to another ISP???

Yes! it does mean that! All 6-digit and lower, anyway.

I guess I wouldn't have had a solid 10+ years of experience with Linux, either. I started with Caldera Linux 1.2... way long ago. And BeOS, too, way before I was 18...

Woah, no sarcasm, I had no idea.

I use brave as my daily driver for months and months and months now. Ever since Manifest v2 went away.

They haven't attacked Yemen, Egypt or Pakistan or India yet.

Sounds like that justification will start happening in less than 2 weeks, huh?

Here in Egypt, 90 minute movies have a 3 minute intermission, 2 hour movies have a 7 minute intermission and 3+ hour movies usually have *two* 5 minute intermissions. Such as Avatar.

I'm an American living in Egypt. Here in New Cairo at the richest mall, I pay 170 EGP ($3.25) for a movie ticket, 20 EGP ($0.38) for 500 mL of water, and 100 EGP ($2.00) for a large popcorn.

What about you???

Last week, I went to the cinema four times here in New Cairo, Egypt:

- Shelter
- Crime 101
- Send Help
- Housemaid

Each cost 170 EGP after tax ($3.25). A Starbucks caramel macchiato cost me 115 EGP today ($2.20).

Four movies for 680 EGP ($13.00). I don't think I could go to the movies ONE TIME in the USA for that price...

Uber 2.5 miles to the mall cost me 60 EGP ($1.15). The 500 mL water at cinema cost 20 EGP ($0.38) and the avocado shake at the cineme cost 180 EGP ($3.44).

Older Gen Z women make far better wives than middle-group Millennial women...

Wouldn't it be smarter to take the $30 million if the farm will only make, say $10 million in their lifetime??

No way. There are so many people submitting 1,000 job postings every day that practically every position gets flooded.

Threre's evidence of larger models already stealing cryptocurrency and hacking people's bank accounts and setting themselves up on rogue Alibaba and AWS AI servers.

You do realize in 2026 that LLMs do do all that stuff with MCP right?
