I see iGPU’s as a good thing. They are perfect for things like work or casual computers where browsing or word processing are about all that is used.

I even prefer them for gaming computers because, depending on the motherboard, you can use the built in HDMI port on the motherboard as an extra spot to plug in a monitor. As a person that always has multiple monitors, the extra port has saved me lots of troubles.

Having an iGPU since my first gaming computer has a lot of benefits:

• Haven’t had to upgrade a GPU due to a lack of ports
• Haven’t needed to replace perfectly fine secondary monitors because they didn’t come with DisplayPort
• I’ve always had a spare port for extra devices like drawing tablets or VR
• They make setting up or repairing a PC easier if you have GPU problems.

To be fair, I don’t expect any serious gaming performance from the iGPU’s I’ve installed. They are a great tool for me and have been worth the extra bit more versus the none integrated CPU’s

If I knew what it was, I wouldn’t have needed to ask here on Lemmy lol. I’m totally gonna watch it though and see if I like it.

That’s it :)

TL;DR

From a leak in Google’s gchips division:

Google is possibly adding a second USB-C port controller to its Tensor G6.

The port would support external displays via DisplayPort and is meant specifically for tablets.

Just a little tidbit to add:

One of the common reasons I’ve seen trunk-or-treats, instead of traditional door-to-doors, is due to dangerous neighborhoods. One community had a high crime rate, so the local church set up a trunk night so parents could bring their kids and feel safer.

New complain is this:

In a complaint filed Friday, the NLRB’s Los Angeles office said the tech giant imposed “numerous” unlawful rules on workers, including confidentiality agreements, non-disclosure policies, non-compete policies, misconduct policies, and social media policies that violate the National Labor Relations Act.

This is a fun extra from last year:

In June of 2023, the NLRB regional office in Oakland, California filed a complaint against Apple alleging the company illegally fired, disciplined, threatened, and interrogated an employee for engaging in protected union activity at its headquarters in Cupertino, California. And in December 2022, the agency’s Atlanta office accused the company of interrogating employees and forcing them to attend anti-union meetings. Both of those cases are awaiting rulings from NLRB administrative law judges.

From Wikipedia, the scandle is described as “a political scandal in the United States that occurred during the second term of the Reagan administration. Between 1981 and 1986, senior administration officials secretly facilitated the illegal sale of arms to Iran, which was subject to an arms embargo at the time. The administration hoped to use the proceeds of the arms sale to fund the Contras, an anti-Sandinista rebel group in Nicaragua. Under the Boland Amendment, further funding of the Contras by legislative appropriations was prohibited by Congress, but the Reagan administration figured out a loophole by secretively using non-appropriated funds instead.”
