Not just that, but the claim that GPUs don’t mask memory latency by switching to other work is patently false as well. That’s exactly how GPUs do it. Memory bandwidth is a huge issue on GPUs and to maximize throughput, they absolutely do co

Wouldn’t this single event have a super high chance of generating fossils though giving that a) it wiped out a ton of life in one go and b) it released a huge amount of debris ready to cover things up nicely and preserve them?

I too have had a Steam Deck dev kit since pretty early on and have put an ungodly amount of time into it on there. It works really well, like the article already mentioned. Steam Input set up is pretty easy and carries you all of the way th

The Gameboy use a very similar system to make it harder to create cartridges not sanctioned by Apple. The cartridge would have to provide the Nintendo logo and the system would check it and then display it (there actually is a TOC/TOU

This is essentially where Sony was trying to go with their Cell architecture in the PS3. Only at the very end did they realize that they actually needed a GPU that can do rasterization in hardware. In fact, a lot of games actually did graph

That’s exactly how it is on my 2021 Corolla Hybrid. We bought a wireless CarPlay adapter and the whole experience is amazing. The touchscreen is useful, I have up to date information on it, podcasts, music, audiobooks… it all just works. An

The shortage is the other way. The rest of BC gets most of its produce from the lower mainland. I live in Kelowna (funny to see a local news site on here), and our stores have basically no produce because we can’t get anything from the lowe

I am painfully aware. The person I replied to is obviously not the only one with that mindset, which is what makes this such a tough sell. At the same time, this is an absurdly shortsighted way of looking at the problem. I get that paying t

Tough luck everyone, OP said he already pays too many taxes, so unfortunately climate action has to go on the back burner. But good news, at least while we are still alive he won’t feel like the government is taking took much.

Yes. On top of what the other person replied to in terms of borrowing power, you also have general goods. Buying in bulk saves money. But it requires you to be able to pay upfront for it. On top of that it requires storage and transportatio

This is where I fall on the topic as well, and I think so do many others. This seems like an easy way to bootstrap and scale this, start with a premium on the product pricing and have people who can afford it fund the scaling. At the end, e

The good(?) news here is that the ocean is a crazy good CO2 sink. If we were to stop all CO2 emissions, global CO2 levels would start to drop dramatically because the oceans would soak up the atmospheric CO2. This doesn’t work endlessly, bu

Not if the hacker group is a nation state. Sure, small time hacking is cute and all, but the US isn’t going to just roll over and be all like “oh no, you hit critical infrastructure that had a big impact on peoples life. Carry on”

Sure, but electric cars used to be insanely expensive too. And while still expensive, they’ve definitely become cheaper with more range. That is to say, lots of things start out being expensive, and then as they get scaled up and the proces

The 5 year old crowd kinda lacks the means of transportation to pull these kinda of things of. That doesn’t mean they are wiser than the capitol rioters, just that they have a harder time to do things by themselves. Middle-aged people have

3% raise of 50k is much less than 3% of 150k though. GP could get a hella big pay bump and then much larger raises if he switched, even if on paper it’s still the same percentage.

Realistically and objectively, the answer has to be yes. Although you get into all sorts of issues if you actually go down that line, so practically the answer is no.

That seems like a pretty good trade off for mobile devices. They usually don’t have sustained performance needs, you aren’t going to render a movie or do other long running computational tasks. But mobile has a lot of bursty power demands:

I have seen a ton of forest service roads as well on Google Maps here in the Okanagan. Some of those are indeed maintained and very usable even in small cars (Penticton to Highway 33/Big White, for example). Others not so much. Definit
