12,000 consoles … for an estimated value of more than 47.5 million euros.

Each console costs 40 grand? doubt

nerd excuse me the embargo has an exception for food and medicine

It's really easy you see, you just need to pass an inspection and get a written permission from the President of the US, the payment must be made in cash in US dollars before shipment and through some non-American bank, and the shipping company must go straight from a US port to a Cuban port and back with no layovers.

This is not a joke, it's what is actually written in the law.

The card in the picture is of a kind that no longer exists: the basic, office computer GPU.

It got entirely displaced by integrated graphics.

So in a way they did get smaller, so small that they share a piece of silicon with the CPU. The only cards that remain are those that are so power hungry they can't share power and cooling with the CPU.

I'm more partial to Xiaomi.

Sure it's commendable that Huawei is a sanctioned Chinese cooperative with custom made CPUs pushing the boundary on 5G, but Xiaomi phones have very good specs for the price, big batteries, they are well constructed, easy to repair, the bootloader is unlockable, and they usually have snapdragon CPUs that work great with custom roms.

Duckduckgo shows you the full res image from the search results and the main link is to the image itself.

Yandex for reverse search, it works like you remember Google used to work.

Michael Hudson made a career out of telling think tanks to read Marx.

yewtube gives you 720p H.264, which your laptop almost certainly can decode in hardware.

YouTube gives you higher resolution VP9, which your laptop probably needs to decode with the CPU.

Install the h264ify extension to force youtube to give you H.264. You'll be limited to 1080p.

This but unironically, double checking prevents errors and you make more mental connections when you look things up.

The true captcha is tricking the robot to believe you that the blurry red spot is a red light, that a bicycle is a motorcycle, that the typewriter is a computer.

You want clean data for your nightmare AI? Pay me. Lying to captchas is praxis.
