According to Ars Technica this processor draws 50W to get those performance numbers. The entire Steam Deck doesn’t even use that much power.

The highest margin for most is probably merch purchased at venues, including physical media

This is no longer the case since venues started taking a cut of merch sales

Its the New York Times not someones personal blog. If they are publishing sloppy work that is their fault.

iPhones have supported some form of fast charging since at least the iPhone 6. The included charger was usually 5W and I think they can currently take 20W fast charging

It was roughly 2 years between the M1 and M2 which is a longer time between generation refreshes than Intel and about on par with AMD. The A series updates roughly as often as the top tier Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 processors. Apple really isn’t doing anything outside of industry norms here.

I’m glad Ars seems to have walked back its transphobia after the absolute shit-show that was its article about twitter screening a self identified fascist’s transphobic screed that somehow came down on the side of the fascist.

This looks amazing. I’ve been looking for a replacement for Delicious Library for a long time and this looks like exactly what I’ve been looking for.

All of the “Taylor’s Version” albums and songs are rerecorded.

For a long time Stitcher was taking public podcast feeds, adding their own advertising, and re-encoding the podcasts which reduced the audio quality and made it harder for podcasters to tell how many downloads they were getting. For iHeart it’s honestly mostly ideological for me. iHeart is what Clear Channel rebranded to and they control more of American terrestrial radio than any other company. Having listened to podcasts since 2005 I liked that they were a lot smaller scale, that they were more community oriented and diy. Yes there were networks like Maximum Fun and TWiT, but none of them were on the scale that iHeart is. There is some good stuff on their network, but like a lot of the corporations that only started getting into podcasts after Serial they have a much different view of what podcasts are and should be than I do.

Good riddance. Stitcher was a blight on podcasts, I can only hope that iHeartMedia is next.
