Instruction set baselines should ideally be well-regulated open standards. They should also be good, and not moronic academic projects running of 32B opcode space because of religious dedication to silly extensions and the uniformity of an

Surprisingly this page looks like it’s been updated more recently. They also added RISC-V support for Starnix recently.

This is naïve though. Regulation — especially such as this — has to be enforced and there is obviously room to over and under interpret the text of the law on a whim, or varying fines. OAI knows this and looking at the EU lately, what they

Yes. The whole “non-maneuverable” line is kind of a blurry one with modern algorithms/comms and the altitude adjustments possible

Yeah it’s not new, people have known.

I don’t think it was 50K in practice, published maybe but it was widely known it reach higher.

Absolutely. This is the primary reason those “UFO’s” AKA balloons and drones are concerning: Signals intelligence (and/or radar jamming in the same vein which the DOD reported has occurred off the coast of Virginia). It’s alarming many

"But I actually think, 10 years from now, everyone in the world is going to be trying to figure out how [best] to use Fuchsia. I think there’s gonna be some serious competitive advantages that using Fuchsia is going to give companies,

I love the freedom Android provides what with the utter clusterfuck that is the Linux kernel’s driver interface and GPL. Yay freedom. An MIT license is fine. Great, even, because Fuchsia is in fact still an open source OS. Hardware OEM’s do

Right. This is what I think Fuchsia and Zircon probably are headed for long term but people really felt the compulsive contrarian need to stake out the experiment/retention project angle since so many saw the obvious but were hyperboli

This is not true and it’s odd people still take this bait voluntarily. At best this line used to be cheap PR to avoid GPL and Linux disciples going ballistic and to keep media off the project as much as possible. They’ve shipped Fuchsia on

Google won’t be producing Ad Campaigns against GPL, no. Yet the licensing model of the Linux Kernel & the kernel developer policy towards drivers & driver interfaces effectively renders Android hostage. This complicates Android’s ar

Frankly if the drivers didn’t suck hot shit I think many of us would.

First party bloat is arguably worse.

Jesus Christ, thank you. People act as if bullshit like TV and FaceTime are perfectly innocuous binaries without 6478 daemons molesting your memory irrespective of deliberate use & permissions.

God willing.

Dude it’s like some ancient web UI despite existing in the native settings software, it’s utterly slow as fuck to load and only faintly responsive to touch. It is clearly a deliberate ploy by Cupertino. Or in practice, an update is “not on

I may have talked to you about this, but I feel the same, iOS 7 also absolutely marred the sustained & graphical performance of the OS via the over reliance on increasingly n-dimensional neon or parallax bullshit whereas skeuomorphic de

Indeed and the reported Exynos GPU utilizing AMD IP is likely a bit hot on phones but the sustained leaks for 3D games look promising, if they are accurate in that they were recorded for sustained activity then it sets a sort of upper bound

Edited for harsh tone. The TDP is a non-standardized marketing term. You know what is fairly standardized? Watts. Please Read The TDP is not the wattage consumed during peak load when these chips — or the constituent cores I should say

Lol they use off the shelf ARM cores again, and the major issues since the custom cores of years past have dissipated. Sure, Qualcomm adds a slight bit of low-level code and has a different power policy on the 888 vs the 2100, but it’s not

It flies and stops halfway in the face. Apple’s developer tool chains (at least, for iOS and the world of mobile apps and games, Metal notwithstanding) are decent, their codebase is at least a cleaner implementation than what Google have w

Yeah, no. The libraries used can and do differ.

Indeed, thank you. It's plainly pathetic this has to be said so often, especially here FFS. Every time this topic comes up "AMD can do the same, 15W" as if the "15W" figure was a terminating value from a set of indu
