Good old times.

Isto é mais investimentos do que informática, mas a observação de que companhias que costumavam ser de software estão a enterrar na corrida às IAs quantidades de dinheiro em infraestrutura como se fossem da água ou electricidade é relevante: https://no01.substack.com/p/the-gazillion-dollar-oops

In what universe is this rational capital allocation? Well... in this one, apparently. Google co-founder Larry Page was quoted saying “I’m willing to go bankrupt rather than lose this race”.

At least someone’s being honest.​

[...] Capex as a percentage of revenue will hit 86% at Oracle this year. Eighty-six percent of revenue spent on infrastructure. Meta’s at 54%. Microsoft 47%. Alphabet 46%. These are utility-company ratios for companies that used to be software businesses.

SSDs: WTF?
In this video, we dive deep into why SSD prices are skyrocketing, and why we think they'll get worse in the near-term. Similar to RAM (DRAM) prices for system memory, SSDs are now plotting an actually worse price increase trajectory by time vs spot price, and we expect contract prices will trail. Currently, data centers and "AI" are driving the demand for SSDs to be deployed in server solutions worldwide, which reduces consumer demand. At the same time, some SSD NAND suppliers are reducing their production capacity despite high demand.
 
Atenção: alguns routers da marca Tp-Link tem porta aberta que permite redirecionar trafego para hacker russos. Os routeres são chineses mas os russos é que estão a explorar a vulnerabilidade, segundo consta.

A lista foi divulgado e deu agora na RTP.
 
Bom dia

Um Dell Optiplex 3050 i5 6500 16gbram SSD 256gb NVME recondicionado ainda é uma boa compra por 140€?

A ideia é ter um desktop para navegação, Office, algum canva etc

Obrigado

Edit: esqueçam, a IA diz que é mais fraco que o portátil já existente

BLACKLISTED by AMD | AMD's Dirty Tactics
For months, AMD has refused to respond to GamersNexus' queries relating to the company's driver support or abandonment of actively sold products (like the Z1 Extreme), political donations, seemingly anti-consumer lobbying efforts that bulldoze peoples' rights, and other topics relating to both AMD's hardware and AMD's backroom games it's playing with megacorporations and government agencies. Now, AMD has decided not to sample GamersNexus for the Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 CPU reviews, suspiciously following a blackout period of communications (again, including pro-consumer driver support questions) and our prior coverage of AMD's descent into what we think is corruption.
