Something about that page just makes my brain implode while trying to read it on my iPhone.. Sounds super interesting, but grey matter just doesn’t function while looking at it..

I don’t know how you remember that considering it doesn’t.. I’m as rabid a 6502 fanboy as you might meet (and have been programming them for some 40 years or so), but that’s not a competition it wins, all 6502 coders know that ;) We think i

I’m curious about this.. I’m in the middle of nowhere, 2 miles from nearest mast and home internet is a Zyxel NR5103E 5G Router on Three.. I get near as dammit 1Gb down/50Mbps up with 20ms ping, for £15 a month..

Apart from audio world high monitor stands, not much you can do.. I’ve been adding to basket/removing from basket that particular monitor for months, but speaker placement is always abort, abort, abort! I’m an Audio programmer, and hea

I was with you until I saw your downright brutish treatment of the Audioengine A2+ speakers.. Poor things, you even bought them stands! For what ? To aim that lovely HF at the back of your monitor ? You brute!

The Apple ‘Scorpius’ thing they bought the Cray in the 80’s for emulating.. RISC, multi-core, but could put all the cores in lockstep to operate as pseudo’SIMD.. Or failing that, the 32-bit 6502 successor the MCS65E4.. https://we

Every DAW does.. You want M(id)/S(ide).. Sum+Difference.. L+R/L-R.. etc.. If they don’t have those names you mix channels, and usually can apply negative volume amount to subtract.. Or a separate invert select.. M=L+R S=L-R

Nvidia Broadcast. Does an amazing job of removing background noise from audio.. Only for Nvidia GPUs though.. Not sure if it’s still RTX only though..

VLIW, they’re still out there, doing mad stuff.. VLIW is cool and as a DSP programmer I love/live that time a VLIW comes my way :) https://chipsandcheese.com/2023/10/04/qualcomms-hexagon-dsp-...

A dual 486 is a very special beast.. What motherboard is that

I had a co-worker who told me something similar with regards to Nvidia circa 2008, thankfully I didn’t listen to him ;)

Wow! I’d totally forgotten PB was the IQ (Inigo Quilez) of a different generation.. What a blast from the past, and learnt so much from this site 20+ years ago!

Didn’t the SouthBridge turn up in some Nvidia ATX boards ? I recall positively salivating on realising that one particular Nvidia motherboard gave us a hardware encoded Dolby digital signal, just like the Xbox..

MP3 above 16Khz is the sfb21 ( scale factor band 21) problem.. Can’t be solved without lots of bits being thrown at it..

Can throughly recommend these.. Currently running one of these with 4x4TB and it’s lovely, as long as your Chipset supports PCI-E bifurcation..

“Fibre optic interface to monitor” ? I want to believe this is real, but it does seem like it’s from some parallel dimension.. All of it is plausible, I guess, just all of it together seems pretty far fetched..

As fully signed up C64/SID fanboy, Chronos on the Speccy is probably my favourite piece of music in any game.. Absolute 1-bit sheer heaven..

Great read, and always loved these processors.. My first introduction to AVX-512 and the beginnings of a love affair :)

Any examples of this horrific sounding mode ? Brings back memories of the Atari 7800 and Mode 320A/B/C/D..
