Instead of running a magnetic tape over the cassette player's sensor, you put an electromagnet on it powered by the headphone jack. The cassette player just reads the magnetic field and doesn't know any difference.

Fake resolution has it's place, the problem is when Nvidia pressures reviewers to put its cards running a fake resolution against other cards running native resolution on benchmark charts.

forgot to activate car wash mode

Wait, what? There's a 'don't die in the rain' mode you have to set?

It's how every manufacturer starts, though. Sell at a loss until you can achieve the volume you need to bring costs down. "strong growth in EV deliveries as losses narrow" means this is exactly what's happening.

Nobody's going to buy your first car for 100 million dollars so that you can be profitable from day 1.

I mean, he's also legally obligated not to rape people but that doesn't seem to bother him.

Now do Amazon. Are warehouse workers allowed to pee yet?

It generates an answer that looks correct. Actual correctness is accidental. That's how you wind up with documents with references that don't exist, it just knows what references look like.

Is the D15 putting out hot air?

If the air coming out is really hot, it's a fan/airflow issue.

If it's just warmish, it's a problem transferring heat from the CPU into the cooler's fins. Could be the contact or bad heat pipes.

against two weaker GPUs (the 3060 and 2060 Super) where the new card would be sure to win.

IIRC they also insisted multi-frame generation be used, which the 3060 and 2060 Super don't support. That's why the 4060 isn't allowed, it does support MFG and it'd sink the plan to inflate 5060 benchmark results with fake frames.

The specific games using specific settings at 1080p bit is because in 2025 they have to carefully choose scenarios that won't overflow the tiny VRAM of the cards and tank performance to below the level of the 3060 12GB.

Shout out to Hardware Unboxed for getting a 5060 review done at Computex with some amazing B-roll
