Terafab, Tenstorrent, SMIC and Cerebras Systems are a few more TSMC competitors.

New comment by deadalus in "How the FBI might have gotten inaccessible camera footage from house"

deadalus — Thu, 12 Feb 2026 18:10:46 +0000

This incident will, hopefully, encourage people to use cctv that store footage exclusively locally (on a microSD card, built-in storage, or a local NVR/hard drive you control) and avoid any cloud connectivity or optional cloud features.

Local alternative to Google Nest : Reolink, Amcrest POE, Eufy with Home Base, TP-Link Tapo, Frigate + POE cams.

New comment by deadalus in "Ollama now supports AMD graphics cards"

deadalus — Fri, 15 Mar 2024 18:30:21 +0000

I wish AMD did well in the Stable Diffusion front because AMD is never greedy on VRAM. The 4060Ti 16GB(minimum required for Stable Diffusion in 2024) starts at $450.

AMD with ROCm is decent on Linux but pretty bad on Windows.

I will always remember the automatic removal of the Christchurch shooting video from users' personal Google Drive and Dropbox accounts, with no prior warnings or explanations provided.

New comment by deadalus in "Google User Data Is Police's Top Shortcut for Solving Crimes"

deadalus — Wed, 04 Oct 2023 05:53:49 +0000

I use Bing for porn. For reverse image search, I use Yandex. And for researching psychedelics and conspiracy(censored) topics - I use Brave Search.

I use Google only for vanilla search that shows I am a good citizen(navigation, online shopping, general research on movies and sports...etc). I don't want my search Identity to be fully profiled by Google. Police(and other bad actors like a hostile government) are more likely to access my data on Google than on other lesser know search engine.

New comment by deadalus in "Archaeologists discover ancient drawings in a Spanish cave"

deadalus — Fri, 15 Sep 2023 18:07:48 +0000

I have never seen a more cute deer.

I wish all ancient drawings had such a version so we can easily interpret what they are talking about in the article. Early cave drawings are very hard to decipher.

Cloudflare banned 8chan without a legal requirement to do so. They banned it based on moral reasons.

Wickr was one of the biggest sourcing platforms in the psychedelic world. It will be a huge loss for Psychonauts.
