Was taking the side glass panel off because I want to install the AORUS X870E Master GPU holder, and while I had the glass side panel in my hands the front one decided to take a kamikaze dive. Now I hope they sell the glass fronts separately, or I am screwed. I'll probably be finding bits of glass for weeks now 😅 -

Yeh, I think you'll find there wasn't much legit savings from what he did. Any chump can fire a bunch of people indiscriminately from positions and services that don't impact that person. At the end of the day, it just means that services that are essential in any functional democracy, won't be able to operate because there are no people to deliver those services. Sure, it "saves" money on paper, but like most short sighted bean counters, there are very real, and expensive impacts later on down the track. Did you know that by buying 2x toothbrush's and a tube of toothpaste every year, and seeing the dentist every 6 months would cost you about $400 a year? So by the time you're in your 30's that would be $12000 of cost! Now imagine if you didn't spend any of that $12000 on preventative oral health care! Wow, so much more money! But you also needed to have several root canals at $1500 per tooth. Plus the time off work for being unable to function with the pain. So lets face it, that initial cost is worth it! -

I mean, it's fairly self explanatory isn't it? It's part of the reason Apple don't include all features on all supported devices with new iOS releases (another reason is probably a subtle nudge to upgrade sooner), but there's a balance between the remaining features that are added and the impact on performance/battery life on those older devices. There certainly have been times when devices have really received a practical (performance/battery life) quality of life improvement via a software update, but like absolutely every damn app update log out there currently, "Performance and Security improvements" basically mean nothing of real world impacts these days. Just what I've seen of this new interface, the rendering of that glass effect would surely be more complex and intensive than the previous transparency effects, there's no way they couldn't be more efficient. It's probably quite a small impact, otherwise they wouldn't be releasing it, but it all has an impact. Even Microsoft backtracked from Acrylic to Mica material, which is prerendered blur of the wallpaper. All the Acrylic material is rendered live, so has a greater impact, hence why Windows 11 use the newer, lower impact Mica material as their base material.
