So in a solid, you can imagine each atom connected to each other by springs (bonds). They can vibrate on these springs. If they vibrate too much (by heating) then they can break the bonds and escape as a gas. Gasses basically have too much energy to bond again.

Molecules interact with each other. Energy is transferred as they bump around. If you were to follow a single molecule it would move around randomly. What we can measure is usually the average of many molecules.

It likely will stabilize, but it might become more of an enthusiast market. People don’t necessarily need a PC anymore.

Do you mean the efficiency question? I’m just deducing if they were competitive in servers Intel would jump at that opportunity.

As for the PC market, just looking at unit sales: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_share_of_personal_computer_vendors

And as for margins, well the exact information is a bit hard to find but in general lower end products have tighter margins and the buyers for them are more price sensitive.

Eh unless they have the most efficient overall, they won’t make inroads into the server market. The entry level laptop and desktop markets are getting smaller and has less margins.

Eh the issue with the support is their better engineers have little interest in working on an older project with no chances for promotion. The standards are just not going to be kept particularly high and will probably be outsourced. So while you may have long term official support, the actual implementations may be lacking. This is true for basically all companies though and also applies to open source projects as well.

Yeah it sounds like the success of BG3 probably spurred this endeavor. I was giving it two years to be optimistic but yeah most likely longer.

Are they projecting a release in like two years? Could be viable.

The new MacBook pros do have a HDMI port.

And the modding will only get better.

My wife really likes that you can control the temperature without having to interact with anyone.

However humans may also be getting better via self driving tools such as radar cruise control. So you’d need to compare to a human with access to these tools.
