Yeah. But it was more or less Apple that specialized in it and now other manufacturers are also following the suit as it generates higher profits. While we as consumers are also equally responsible as most of the people like slimmer devices. It's just these tech forums where we find ourselves...

EU is now at the forefront when it comes to urgent issues such as tech monopoly, consumer privacy, climate change, renewable energy, etc. Sadly we have leaders at the helm who are not even aware enough about these issues, let alone framing laws.

Firefox+uBlock Origin...plus some about:config tweaks like - disabling disk cache and using memory cache only, as I have plenty of RAM available. Based directly on Chromium releases without Google tracking- Ungoogled Chromium, but it needs some efforts to setup Chrome Web Store, Widewine CDM...

3M makes some good tapes. They might have a tape as per your requirement. You need to check their store or any good hardware store in your city or search online. For the model that you have , read Chapter 3 of HP Pavilion 17 Notebook PC HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC - Maintenance and Service Guide...

Umm, backporting a 10nm to 14nm for desktop. By the looks of it, there are certainly serious issues with Intel 10nm. But again, this is more of a confirmation of the news that was making rounds for a long time.

Fragmentation is a serious problem (or a boon if you look from other angle) for Android these days. While, we were expecting different device makers to innovate and provide multiple options to buyers, but of late we are getting same companies flooding market with same devices under different...

Well, it's the belief that they could still compete by improving the x86 that is stopping them. Things look promising, atleast for consumers, after the recent reshuffle at the top like bringing back Patrick P. Gelsinger as CEO and changing the fab team leadership. But, yeah, in the longer run...

Not just Samsung, but Intel too is being coerced to accelerate its transition to smaller nodes after AMD took advantage of TSMC's 7nm node. So, a direct thanks to TSMC and an indirect one to Apple too. Overall a win-win for consumers.

Exactly, semiconductor industry is capital intensive and one needs to continously infuse funds to keep up with the latest manufacturing nodes. Okay, so Indian businessmen are not going to set up a fab after capital requirements and thin margins are taken into account. Fine. But, atleast govt...

Taking into account 4k budget, and the requirements, we have only TL-MR100. On the pricing though the device might be available at 3.2k or lower in local market. You need to wander a bit in market. Even online, sometimes the price goes down to about 3k . Below is the example of a seller in...

The 300Mbps is the maximum theoretical speed of WiFi. That's low for today. On the LTE front, the speed is even lower - 150Mbps download...which I think is too low, as most of the telecom companies have upgraded or are in the process of upgrading their network to higher download speeds by making...

Correct, CPUs need to be reimagined...Current, foundary issues aside, which have even crippled the automakers manufacturing capacity. Who would have thought years ago that assembly lines in automobile industry would have to slash production because there were some issues with semiconductor...

Glad to hear that things went smooth at PrimeABGB where they offered you an upgrade to a NVMe drive.

M.2 slot is more of a form factor. It's the connecting interface/protocol that matters to get drives working. The drives that you have bought have the interface - SATA Rev. 3.0 (6Gb/s) – with backwards compatibility to SATA Rev. 2.0 as mentioned on the product page -...

Other than the costly NAS, cheapest one would be to have a SBC like RaspberryPi with Openmediavault, with drives connected to it via a powered USB 3.0 Hub. Total cost - about 5000. 1. Raspberry Pi4 Model B with 2GB RAM The SBC is fast enough and with 2GB RAM is more than enough for NAS...
