Most of the job applications are written by "pre-LLM" scripts which fail at the simplest checks like "start with word if you are not a bot".

As a result, I rarely even read them and just try to look at profiles and have video calls.

Having a reasonably powerful router from 2016, the only thing that would motivate me to upgrade is Wi-Fi 6E (6 GHz).

I'm writing this on a pixel right now and I wish success to pixel, but I would bet that google won't provide 7 years of major android updates. It will be 4-5 years tops, and then they will just notify people about discontinuing it like with pixel pass.

3 years of major android updates and then only security updates are totally acceptable for me, as long as they are clear upfront about that

The latest mobile amd zen 4 has a comparable efficiency* to apple m2 despite not being arm or having hybrid architecture. See 7840U.

* Within up to 15% at 25W.

This is not true.

Maybe in light threads that utilize many cores.

Most reviewers base it on Cinebench which is a poor indication of CPU performance for anything except Cinemark. Cinebench uses Intel Embree Engine which is hand optimized for x86. In addition, Cinebench favors CPUs with many slow cores - which is not how most software will perform. This is why AMD heavily marketed Cinebench for Zen1 launch and why Intel heavily markets it now for Alder Lake/Raptor Lake. In fact, Intel's little cores are basically designed to win at Cinebench.

Furthermore, AMD CPUs will rate at 25w but can easily boost up to 40w+ watts. It's up to the laptop maker.

You can easily limit the power to 25W. Most manufacturers typically have a silent mode which does exactly that.

Not sure what you mean by many slow cores, since mobile zen 4 has a better single-core performance than m2 pro.

Zen4 desktop has - at the expense of much higher power consumption.

Zen4 mobile does not have higher ST performance than M2 series.

7840u's ST is slower by 21% while consuming much more power during the test.

Not sure what you are using because my bitwarden does not have a secondary key.

What is the primary login method? Because I'm using SSO, and it still requires a master password.

A master password isn’t what we’re talking about though.

1Password last I used it, asked for a master, and a secret extra password. I still cannot explain why.

Granted my setup was for corporate but I am pretty sure it’s the same for everyone.

My best guess is that they are trying to cover for weak masters in the way that LastPass was enforcing but failing to update their PBKDF2 interations.

Which IMO is stupid and a failure to enforce best practices at the user’s first input.

Something like "reenter your password to check you know what you're typing"?

I'm still looking for a product that offers a completely passwordless SSO and has a good and simple UI (keeweb, anyone?)

Unfortunately, Bitwarden fails at both.

You can try https://www.heylogin.com if you are looking for a new approach without a Master Password. I am one of the founders.

Instead of focusing on making a browser that people want to use, Microsoft keeps adding bloat and harassing users. It's really sad to see, because I liked the minimalism and speed of the original Edge, and I even used to recommend the Chromium Edge to friends and family as a less intrusive Chrome alternative.

Would be interesting to additionally see JPEG XL.

Indeed. I expected it to be included before reading.

But I would also expect JPEG-XL to score worse than Webp and old JPEG at the moment because it is newer and implementations could therefore yet be less optimised.

Can you modify and resend a request in Chrome yet?

In the next version: https://www.theregister.com/2023/08/17/chrome_117_developer_...

You can copy the request as it's equivalent fetch call and run it in the console with changes
