Most likely they are using the h.264/h.265 reference design encoders. The reason most commercial encoders vary in quality, is because they all use different shortcuts to achieve faster encode times.
For some reason the education system still live under the illusion that people actually learn anything useful using rote 'learning'. How in the world are you supposed to remember and use this information in a sensible way later on, when you have no context or practical relations to apply it to while studying?
1. Workstation mode: Microsoft plans to optimize the OS by identifying "typical compute and graphics intensive workloads" to provide peak performance and reliability when Workstation mode is enabled.
This.. exactly this is the core of everything wrong with the Windows operating system today. Your computer OS should be ready and waiting at 'peak performance and reliability' a 100% percent of the time. Anything else should only be the direct result of user initiated actions.
In the real world you have things like efficiency, flight time, payload capacity, range, safety etc. Nothing is more inefficient then trying to make something hover in the air. This is why without some future battery revolution, any kind of electric flight will be limited to toys and niches. It is also why weight always by far is the biggest factor in how long a drone can stay up in the air, and why using hover drones for any kind of delivery will never be the best alternative except for in some very specialized scenarios where speedy delivery overrules any other factors. And if we are talking about manned flight, just being able to take off and stay up in the air for a while is the least of your concerns. You can't just stop at side of the road, if you have some technical problem with a flying car.
I've long since stopped spending time and energy trying to actively follow the 'news'. If something is truly newsworthy you will hear about it whether you want to or not. And only then if there is an interesting piece of real news, do I start digging for more information. The rest I just don't care about any longer..
1. The melting of permafrost ice caused by global warming.
2. The bad design or placement of The Global Seed vault.
3. The blatantly wrong click-bate title of this article..
Quote straight from the Samsung Galaxy S8 site, phone in sale at this moment.
Boundaries removed
The Infinity Display has an incredible end-to-end screen that spills over the phone’s sides, forming a completely smooth, continuous surface with no bumps or angles. It’s pure, pristine, uninterrupted glass. And it takes up the entire front of the phone, flowing seamlessly into the aluminum shell. The result is a beautifully curved, perfectly symmetrical, singular object.
Story about efficient emulation of old games that produced great results with minimal resources, displayed on a web page that eats CPU and memory with abandon.
It worked when it was new, and it works just the same today. Unless the circumstances has changed, requiring new features like improved security etc. you don't have to upgrade just for the sake of upgrading. Only potential pitfall with really old stuff is not having expertise and replacement hardware that support it. But that is hardly the case here.
When I grew up the C64 had Basic built into the CLI, so that was the obvious way to start experimenting.
But when I later moved over to x86 architecture things started to get a bit messy. I had a short fling with QuickBasic, but quickly needed something more advanced and moved to TurboPascal for a while. Needing more speed I then overcompensated going full x86 asm, which was fun and very helpful for my later career in terms of experience and understanding the hardware. But not very productive, so C/C++ became the middle ground. And there I have stayed since.
Microsoft is still busy trying to catch up.. Number of users is no longer the main factor for measuring worth. Instead it's all about how much information you can get from them.

It's in the cloud, so everything is fine right?
we are living in the twilight zone.

Is changing something that is not broken, just so that you can experience the old bugs anew again.
Paradigm doesn't even seem to be my style of game play, but that's not the point.
As long as you have a time and cost driven development cycle with humans in the mix, there will be design flaws and problems. End of story.
4K on a 21.5" using a Radeon Pro 555 is nothing but a bad sales joke, with hardly any practical application.

If you have rooted the router and is close enough for optical transfer (aka irDA), would it then not be easier to just plug in network cable?

After the update how to you choose an older version of the app without the restrictions, if this is your first time installing?

Don't underestimate the enthusiast gamer willingness to pay top dollar for things they 'don't really need'.
No phun intended but today's political climate and hyperbole news, would mean the death of any space program if there was a manned mission incident.
If you remove all the DRM and telemetry. Can it then be called Windows compatible?

they are.
where supposedly anyone can 'code', this is the expected result. Why would you expect anything else from cheap inexperienced labor?
But using the word drone, means you will get lots of publicity.
