Reply to comment by Citizen-Kang in Samsung's S23s don't have an answer to Apple's Emergency SOS via Satellite by needlesfox
A Smartphone is not going to last a long as an Inreach. That doesn't sound like a smart alternative.

I care. It was the only reason I was going to upgrade from my S22 Ultra. If they included the satellite SOS, it means I might be able to cancel my Garmin InReach $39.99 per month plan. The phone would pay for itself in 2 years.

Don't worry all it cost Apple was one of the 6 cameras/s

It's a unique feature that serves a very niche purpose, with potential to save lives.
I know we (yes, myself included) like to hate Apple, but Samsung is no saint company either. Apple has the added benefit that the entirety of their user base is using a set iPhone _. Android has thousands of phones, across various manufacturers. Samsung is one of the largest in the US, but the effort to add such a feature would likely not yield enough prais (and thus profit) to benefit share holders. And we all know that satisfying shareholders and bigger CEO bonuses are all these companies strive for today.

Now if only they would properly support Linux…

Probably memory leaks

Discord had a significant impact on gpu hashrate back when I first got mining ⛏️ with my gpu in 2021 so I’m not surprised

It’s not the fact it’s insignificant, it’s the fact they’re causing an issue like this at all. Also 6800/7000 is a 2.9% loss of memory performance, because math.
That’s why you’re getting downvoted.

Well well, finally an explanation for why I am trash on so many games! I’m glad that’s solved.

Its a 200MHz reduction in memory clocks, highly unlikely you will notice any difference.
Edit: I don't know why I'm being downvoted, 200MHz on memory clocks is really not a significant difference. It's like 6800MHz instead of 7000MHz. We're talking, maybe, 1% performance loss.
Nevermind that it only seems to be affecting some 30-series cards.
It shouldn't happen, but since Nvidia were made aware, they published a fast temporary fix and a permanent fix is already on the way.

Windows does not have enough concern separation if this is even possible.

It's only a ~200mhz underclock and a fix is on the way. Article also only mentions 3080 and 3060ti. Pretty sure 99% of gamers wouldn't even have noticed.

Then should I use the browser version of it? Or it does the same?

To be fair your phone does ask if you've been in a crash and makes a lot of noise.
Not particularly hard to tell your phone that's you're ok and not to call the emergency services 😂

You make a trip to Digikey and everything you need comes in the mail. You just need the know-how to put the pieces together.
And explosives. The explosives are definitely the hard part.
But, yeah, in general anyone who has the skills to create terror drones probably has better things to do with their time than create terror drones.

A little late for promises. I'm never buying their products again.

Pros: Save someone's life.
Cons: Someone says "It was an accident" and hangs up.

That's what the USB battery pack is for.
