Left over momentum from the election. Stocks rose pretty continuously from the election on because businesses expected a "pro-corporate" President. They started correcting a week after Jan. 20th inauguration and his tarriff tantrums began to bear fruit, corpos realized they fucked up. "YTD" being zero or only slightly positive/negative only means the markets have fallen back to where they started pre-Trump.
There is a long, loooooong way to fall still.
If you're truely in a survival situation, where are you going to charge your phone after the first 24 hours of emergency?
Not even a day. It was hours.
Not that surprising. The Repuhlican leaders probably don't care, tthey're just not supposed to get caught.
The point is not that it is being used, the point is that corporations must protect their trademarks or else they may lose the exclusive rights to them. Intel also still uses the "Core" branding on their modern CPU's so it wouldn't be a stretch for them to try and continue legally protecting "Core 2 Duo" under the guise of retaining the "Core" part of their trademarks.
Ah, a fellow "EVERY ACTION MUST BE CORRECTLY VALIDATED WITH POSITIVE ENERGY BY MY PEERS OR ELSE MY ENTIRE EXISTENCE FEELS LIKE ABJECT FAILURE" enjoyer, I see
I have a Garmin Instinct and I can definitely recommend their hardware, but their mobile app to link for notifications and health stats is flaming hot garbage and never actually worked for me.
And why are both watches a “2” variant?
Because this is the next generation of the original Pebble watches.
Core 2 Duo
I'll actually be surprised if this makes it to launch without Intel perhaps making a few legal calls and prompting a device name change.
Bigger hammer and a concrete surface. Three good whacks to the thin sheet metal casing (opposite the drive motor/PCB) should shatter the platters inside.
You can also buy a sharp punch that looks like this and punch thru the sheetmetal side to really get those platters broke.
Realistically if they're already failed, nobody is going through the effort to send these disks through any kind of speciality recovery for a random john q public anyway.
A CPU, at its basic level, does math and logic. GHZ is a measure of electrical frequency, aka how fast the switches inside a CPU turn on and off per second; it is only tangentially, loosely related to the amount of math and logic per second that the CPU can do.
Like the other commenter said, IPC, or instructions per clock, measures how much "stuff" a CPU can do each time it's control signal switches on and off. More advanced modern CPU's can do more stuff per clock, both because of architecture improvements, and because there are more "cores" (CPU's inside the CPU, basically). And because of the difference in architecture and other behaviors, it's hard to "apples to apples" compare CPU's. I could take a 4 core cpu from 2012 and a 4 core cpu from today, have them both run at 4ghz, and the modern one would run circles around the 2012 cpu.
The better way to shop for modern processors is not to look at nameplate numbers like GHz. Instead you should find multiple independent software benchmarks that can apply a relative number to the amount of math and logic a CPU can do per second, which allows you to accurately compare different processors side by side. Software like Cinebench does this. There are multiple artificial benchmarks that show performance in many different workloads, pick one out that is most similar to what you would do on a daily basis.
Many review sites like tomshardware will also provide additional data, like core temperatures and power consumption under load, to provide a fuller image of what a CPU can do and what its drawbacks might be.
HAHAHAHAHA, having dealt with such university admins for way too fucking long, you're a real jokester if you believe that administrative costs are going to be the first to get cut at universities.
It's not retarded when you frame it in the light of a foreign power wanting to see their geopolitical enemy get capped in both knees.
Trump is an active foreign agent for Russia.
