Inertial guidance sucks balls for any meaningful amount of time. Combining it with ground tracking gets it a lot better, if you have good time of flight sensors to measure the distance from the ground. But this also falls flat on its face when the ground is too uniform (grassland, wetland, snow etc).

Global net income, yes. But it is 5% of the income from the EU. As much as I dislike Apple, the fine seems to be reasonable. I do want to see it bumped up if they keep on with their horseplay.

Based on Statista, Apple profit from EU was 36B in 2023. The fine in this case amounts to 5% of their profit from the region. This is something that will impact the company's decisions.

Or they will fund more infrastructure development in the EU. It's still just March.

And it most definitely isn't. GDPR requires explicit consent for collecting OR processing personal information. As per the European Commission, just taking the picture and extracting some metrics off of it already counts as processing personal information:

Undervolting has the added benefit of reducing silicon degradation. I don't know how much it'll help your GPU, considering it's age, but it's something

Undervolt it too. Depending on what GPU you have, you might drop an additional 20-40% without a performance hit. An older GTX1070 I used to have dropped power consumption by 40%. The energy savings weren't that big, but it was nice and quiet

  • Buying Noctua NH-D15 because it keeps the CPU the coolest
  • Buying 360mm AIO because it is the most silent

Adding a frame limiter and dropping the resolution a bit saves me 200W. Yay RTX3090

  • Gaming on a new GPU because it's faster
  • Gaming on an old GPU because it's VRAM is dying and sometimes the walls disappear

Already set. I'm not that competitive player and my reflexes are worse than a sloth's. So I didn't even bother to buy a higher refresh rate monitor than 60.
