The “8gb gamble” could be seen as a misleading headline.

The review is very fair - it’s an amazing bit of kit for the money.

That’s not how accounting works.

GitHub has already been bettered - gitlab is much better, in my opinion.

And Self hostable.

They were amazing. I had a dual socket board. I do wonder what they'd be up to now if they still existed... 4 socket ryzen boards, 2kw? lol

Go ahead and explain why. There are some incredibly intelligent people in other countries.

They can work remotely.

No idea - the ryzen based ones are better!

Depends on what you need - for pure performance regardless of power usage and 3D use cases like gaming, agreed. For performance per watt under load and video transcoding use cases, the 12th-gen E-core CPUs ala the N100 are _really_ hard to beat.

They are illegal now in the UK.

'illegal' in that manufacturers add on a usb port and the basic board to tick the reusable check box.

I'm still seeing almost as many of these cast on the streets as I did a year ago.

All of the disposables I've seen have USB ports for charging because they come with more juice than battery power sufficient to vape it all. You will have to recharge multiple times for one disposable. I'm not in the UK, but I have seen something of a shift to separating the battery component from the vape tank such that you can just buy a new disposable tank and reuse the batteries. Maybe something like that might work in the UK grey areas.

Government shutdown. ATC are not being paid.

Sort your country out!

Most Americans have zero agency in the matter. We vote once a year or two, most of our states or districts aren’t competitive, and the candidates we do elect can ignore their constituents easily.

Who are you yelling at? Do you think the Trump administration reads Hacker News? What do you expect the average American taxpayer to do to fix a government shutdown?

"trollied"... perhaps the clue is in the name?

General strike. Certainly government employees should be on strike. Starting with secret service.
