That is true that we're headed towards a cliff. The way the California bill is structured.It can only be used to filter algorithms, make content and cannot be used for content moderation or filtering. It does nothing to stop what other states or the national government will want to do with it once it's in there. It also does nothing to stop companies from requiring actual age verification or having accounts. You know , someone like microsoft would love to tie an Id to the computer and make you have a microsoft account to use it.

    The california law isn't actually age verification. It is unchecked age assertion at the operating system level. He is also there specifically for the parents to fill out.When a new device is purchased. I have no doubts.It will be misused and lead to age verification in the OS with a third party verifying the age, but that isnt want the bill is now

    The ca law specifically requires parental configuration of new devices and they do not restrict content. It is there to prevent algorithmic feeds and data collection of minors. It is not age verification and does not allow for content restrictions.

    Other places want to use the os to restrict content. There are lobbyists trying to get it to tie an ID to your os and to restrict/report content.

    They're both a unilever. I don't think the same company does both internally; i think you'll leave her wanted a premium chocolate brain and he tested well , that the dove customer base would also want the chocolate. Then both brands are supposed to be smooth and creamy so there's synergy

    Both companies sold directly to consumers. They just sell cheap jdec garbage ram, so people normally don't buy them. Both companies do make a lot of storage devices and do sell directly to consumers.

    Micron had sold their profitable product rights to lexar , and then split lexar back into its own company. If micron didn't launch micron pro by crucial right before departing the business, it would have made sense for them to stop the consumer market since they were selling commodity jdec ram and cannot tell more profitable gaming targeted overclocked ram due to their deal is splitting off lexar. They killed crucial right when they could start selling the good stuff again.

    Those are not valid configs for AM4/5. You cannot mix IC in them to work right and you would have 3 ranks per channel on DDR4 so it would not work correctly as you need one or a power of 2. You could technically get single rank ram sticks from micron that are 12GB, but the cost is more than 16GB sticks so I would go back to not a valid option. You could run one 24GB stick as well, but you should not be recommending that.

    You could run less than one command per clock and make it work with mixed configs, but it is just a bad idea and not recommended or in spec.

    If you had socked 1366 or one of the HEDT quad channel set ups running with one stick since a stick or slot died, then sure it would be a valid config.

    No idea, but that is their guide for setting recommended system requirements. You lose 8-10GB with windows web browser in back ground and windows depending on how you think your user will use their computer.

    Recommended settings are for the average user to plug it in and get that performance. Have windows doing stuff in the background, a couple chrome tabs open and you need more than 16GB. 18-30GB are not valid ram configs on intel desktop or AM4/5 so 32GB is the closest.

    Recommended is for the game to run well for a user, not what it needs to run well. 18-24GB is not a viable config so 32GB gets it. MS says you need 6GB for windows to stay in ram, chrome will eat a couple gigs, and then the game likely needs like 10GB. 6700xt is a low end card from 5 years ago. The requirements and recommended seem fine.
