  • A few possibilities,

    1. brave has state in the past they use the googlebot user agent, if all reddit does is check the useragnet, it won’t block brave. This does however mean brave is violating the robots.txt file.
    2. I saw some mentions of google fall back, I don’t know if they still do it, but that could be another possibility.
    3. Brave ignores robots.txt files
    4. Brave paid for access

    No matter the reason, well behaving crawlers will no longer crawl reddit, Everything is disallowed in the robots.txt

    User-agent: *
    Disallow: /
    





  • Partial rebuttal. If you increase the power draw, you need more pins dedicated to power and ground. Without reducing functions, this needs a different footprint. They have had issues with some CPUs in the past. bugs in complex systems are basically unavoidable, its just in hardware you can’t just issue a software patch to fix it 100% with no negative effects.

    Nvidia has been anti-competitive as long as I can remember. They put out dev tools that basically break games on AMD. That’s just their operating model. I don’t know that that’s enshittifying as it often makes their own product better, its just being an anti-competitive ass.

    I can’t comment too much to your other points. I think some of the memory was down to the memory chip makers, not the product makers, but I can’t back that up.
