I certainly miss having COP2 instructions.

They'd just pitch for using the same GPUs to run the digital dollar ledger, and begin the cycle again, maybe.

Where does that leave AMD, considering OAI are taking a 10% stake?

How about everyone gets a cut each time their data is sold?

I thought those came from the automotive sector.

Game developers also call it DX12. We like to name targets with two characters and a number.

Last time I tried to do this (run iGPU as a compute coprocessor for the CPU) it was no longer supported, the driver enumerating both but forcing the use of one only.

I’ll wait for the MagSafe MiniDisc.

I thought Google+’s Circles was a good idea.

I really would have thought we’d have ROP-less compute units or even texture sampling instructions on CPUs by now instead.

I do wonder if the amount they're spending on it is going to be cost effective versus letting humans continue doing the work.

The farm being a single core Pentium machine with 64MiB of memory, 1Gb HDD, and a 10Mbps network connection that gets powered down each evening.

The small print (of my card) mentions a maximum vehicle value. Every time I’ve asked for the vehicle’s value when renting abroad, it’s been higher than the card’s maximum.

Sorry, was an offhand remark about solutions that may end up harming us further when applied on a planet-wide scale. How much of this stuff needs to be made to actually have an effect, and with how much energy? When any attempt at reducing

I guess mass extinction (via microplastics) works for some planet-saving outcome.

They’d rather spend an extraordinary amount increasing the island’s elevation.

Vib Ribbon is one example I can think of that also exhibits that property.

AMD’s openness has been a positive in the games industry. I only wish they too made ARM based APUs.

I use a chess clock, hitting the rocker whenever I get up from my desk, or otherwise interrupted. It’s been useful for quantifying how much time is lost during the day and allow me to “bank” time should I need to step away for a bit. [0] ht

In games only one console vendor allows you to write shaders in asm, though it is not very productive, especially with RDNA. Reading the compiler output is a good-to-have skill however, for teasing the compiler into better register usage, r

Since there are already Kings of both Canada and Denmark, if Trump wants to be a King too, let them settle it the old way.

I haven't looked through the code yet, but could be real/protected mode interop. IME render code back then was typically in asm also.

Only if using x86-64 IME. Other architectures that don’t require as much shuffling of data are far more legible.

I was trying to join a meeting in Teams from the calendar when up popped a “How are you enjoying Calendar” star rating dialog. I’ve never once listed “Office Calendars” amongst things that I enjoy. Much less now with this needy feedback blo
