https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/redirect-bypasser-webextension/ in desktop Firefox seems to work for your link. For mobile there might be apps that you share the link to and they dissect it, but a very quick search didn’t turn up anything.

Is that a realistic attack scenario that end users need to be concerned about?

According to https://www.computerbase.de/artikel/grafikkarten/nvidia-geforce-rtx-5060-ti-16-gb-test.92119/seite-8#abschnitt_leistungsaufnahme_gaming_die_lastspitzen it peaks at 201 W.

As others mentioned, the rest of the PC is important too, but there’s also differences in PSU quality. IIRC ATX 3.x requires them to actually be able to supply the nominal power continuously, with short spikes up to twice that. While older and cheaper PSUs often listed the peak output which they couldn’t sustain, that’s why a lot of power supply calculators recommend a much higher wattage than strictly necessary.

So, assuming a “65 W” AMD CPU which maxes out at 88 W plus the 200 W GPU plus a 50 W buffer for mainboard and drives etc., a good new 350 W PSU should run such a system (assuming you could actually buy one, the lowest ATX 3.x PSUs I’ve seen start at 450 W).

But to answer the question if you can continue to use your old PSU you a) need to know how much the rest of the system needs, mainly the CPU (which as others have mentioned can range from under 100 W to ~300 W), and b) the real power your PSU can supply which depends on its age and quality - maybe tell us the exact CPU and PSU in question.

Probably means there will be new PNGs that old software won’t be able to open.

Exactly. There need to be rules that make people responsible for decisions made by software.

Something like https://flathub.org/apps/com.github.jeromerobert.pdfarranger to crop pages might work, or https://flathub.org/apps/net.sourceforge.Pdfedit (old and possibly insecure) for more options.

5900XT and 64 gb of ram

is about $700

That sounds a lot to me for that. Maybe a used 5900X could be a cheaper alternative.

Poop jokes and big tech’s data hunger aside, this seems to me one of the more useful applications of AI: Checking for early signs of medical problems.

Free speech abolitionist.

Well, now you can tweet wherever you like and don’t have to invent a silly new verb for every new platform.

It’s a belief in Techno-Jesus that will solve all our problems so we don’t have to solve them ourselves (don’t need to do the uncomfortable things we don’t want to). Just like aliens, the singularity, etc.

From world police to mafia protection racket.

He meant “free speech abolitionist”, easy typo to make.

EU warning against advertising on X

… and Musk supporting anti-EU parties.

A little DOGE hut at the foot of Trump’s bed?

Also why they (Musk especially visibly amongst them) try to destabilize the EU - the possibly most effective consumer protection organization that messes with their bottom line.

It just matters that it’s consistent. The transactions that are put into the blockchain just have to follow the rules of the blockchain and be the same for everyone who reads the blockchain. That’s all that “correctness” means as far as the blockchain is concerned.

Still useless for anything that depends on external data, since there can be no guarantee that what has been entered is correct. What’s the point of a consistent record of garbage?

But blockchain at its core is just a distributed database. One that has no central authority, can not be tampered with, cannot be altered, nor taken down if parametrized accordingly.

Which is completely useless if the data that goes into that blockchain isn’t guaranteed to be correct. And if there’s money in it you can bet your ass that someone will try to game the system.

You’re also glossing over the existing grid that needs money to be maintained while complaining that energy companies want money. Yes, there’s a general problem where society allowed (and partly encouraged) sociopaths to be unrestrained greedy assholes that needs some kind of solution, but not all companies are useless leeches, it’s “just” an all-pervading corruption that needs to be dealt with - and as long as that hasn’t happened, every idealistic solution faces the threat of being corrupted itself.

“Winnie the Pooh” - a term that’s banned in China because it’s used to mock President Xi Jinping.

What a weak snowflake. A confident and capable leader doesn’t fear opposition.

Monopoly? No? I guess that’s the less visible kind of violence that makes it acceptable.
