Cheap intel stock going then
I’d be very surprised if they don’t find a way to bounce back, they’ve done it before
Maybe. In the past they have always been able to rely on their dominance in the PC market. With consumers shifting away from this, I don’t think it’s so straight forward and in other emerging markets like AI they are way behind.
At least they are finally putting actual money into R&D. This article was a really good read. Will be interesting to see how and if Intels investments pay off.
I am also betting they will bounce back; hopefully this is indeed a good opportunity to buy the stock for cheap.
While I used AMD since fx bulldozer and currently using laptop with Ryzen 7 5700u and really enjoying it, downfall of intel saddens me because they keeping the GPUs prices down, i mean, would AMD and Nvidia offer 16gb GPUs in 300$ price range if intel wouldn’t bring a770 16gb for 300$ on the table first, p.s AMD always deserved first place and still deserves it now, while intel is good as catching up player which keeping the prices down
Don’t you mean relative decline?
A decline is ALWAYS relative to something, otherwise it wouldn’t make sense. So what is it really that you mean?
Intel used to be the undisputed leader both on CPU design and production process. Those positions are both lost, Intel also always used to have huge profits, but has had deficits lately, that used to be absolutely unheard of. They have lost both their economic and technological lead and they have lost marketshare, So how is that not a decline by every measure?
Agree
Actually no. If I am standing still and people move past me, I’m not moving backwards.
Intel GPUs are still ahead in some ways. They need to work on getting Intel GPUs in datacenters
I also like that they are working on creating a more open AI hardware platform
In what ways? Transcoding?
HDMI 2.1 support on Linux 😂😭
Nice read. Thanks OP!
Appreciate it 🙏.
Pretty incisive article, and I agree.
In retrospect, I think the marketing/sales/finance corporate leadership idiocy that’s intensified over the last couple decades is the single biggest contributor to my deep sense of frustration and ennui I’ve developed working as a software engineer. It just seems like pretty much fucking nobody in the engineering management sphere these days actually values robust, carefully and thoughtfully designed stuff anymore - or more accurately, if they do, the higher-ups will fire them for not churning out half-finished bullshit.
That’s why I like my steam deck so much: the design is so thoughtful and adapted to its own needs, and unfortunately that’s a rare sight lately (not just in technology).
Yeah… I’ve been thinking about popping for one for a while now. I should probably just go for it.
Out of curiosity, is the etched AR glass on the top end model actually worth it, or is that more of a gimmick?
I bought the LCD without and later switched to. oled with. Honestly. I barely notice it. Go for the cheapest oled option. That is a change you will notice, unlike the the etching.
Good tip. Thanks, friend!
Just to add on to what others have already said, you can get an anti-reflective screen protector to accomplish the same task. If you think you’ll be playing in environments with a lot of light, then I’d spring for it.
Would’ve probably turned out different if Valve was beholden to shareholders and the never-ending hunger for a higher stock price. The push to drive “shareholder value” is one of the most destructive forces if not the most destructive force we’re dealing with these days.
Either they make a phone chip … or they continue to rot to obscurity.
They used to, but they weren’t very good.
Lol … If they don’t manage to make a decent one … they’re done.
That being said I would love an "not so good " x86 smartphone with usb video out and desktop mode.
But clearly that ain’t going to happen… all the ARM shit must be sold .
The reason for a lack of “not so good” x86 smartphone chips isn’t some desire to sell “all the ARM shit”. Device manufacturers have to pay to license the ARM instruction set, if there was a viable alternative they would be using it.
The issue is power consumption. Look at the battery life difference between the Intel and Apple Silicon ARM MacBooks. Look at the battery life difference between an x86 and ARM Windows laptop. x86 chips run too hot and need too much power to be viable in a smartphone.
What purpose would an x86 smartphone serve anyway? Also bro you gotta chill on the ellipses.
Bro … if you think people need to chill… you just need to eat some shit!
Arm and all it fucking VENDORS CAN EAT SHIT AND DIE . They do make less power-hungry chips … but completely shit when it comes to OPENNESS !
FUCK ARM … FUCK YOU … And fuck all the ARM PUSHERS !
Jesus christ bro you need to fucking relax before your heart pops. If you care about openness then call for phone/tablet/laptop manufacturers to shift to RISC-V.
Nothing lasts forever, and x86 and x86_64 have lasted for eons. We will move away from x86, probably in your lifetime (unless you give yourself a coronary event which is honestly pretty likely all things considered), so you should probably come to terms with it.
I honestly can’t tell if your unhinged response is a joke or legit. If you had just tossed in ellipses liberally, in place of every single other punctuation, I would have known you were joking. With the Trumpian/boomer FB caps rant, I’m thinking maybe you’re actually serious?
Just EAT some shit off the arm pushers dick !
Don’t worry imbecile… the vendors will make the other architectures JUST AS CLOSED AS ARM IS !
Because imbeciles like you will buy them !
Wow you’re really doubling down on the ranting and raving huh?
