Ah yes. It’s the same with memory… 8gb/16gb is incredibly common, even though 16gb memory was a thing in like 2008 already. It’s only with high end machines that you get 64/128gb memory, which should be much more common in my opin

You should look into chinese laptops using the intel n150/n250 cpus. Those have a 6W TDP. The issue with those cpus is that they're pretty much never used in laptops meant to do anything serious. They usually are employed into che

I only partially agree. I recently got nostalgic and bought a 2nd-gen Core-i7 ThinkPad X220 from ebay (similar to what i had back in my university days). It's generally very usable util you open firefox and browse a modern website. Chr

I can understand you not ditching after the first suspension but the second suspension should have been the point where you took the choice. First time is a fluke, second time is a serious wake-up call, third time it's your fault. Do y

yes. If you had actually read the post you would have understood there are ways to ditch GCP, but they are perceived as cumbersome. The exaple is OpenID Connect. It works well with Azure (according to the post). I'm sorry to say this,

Maybe it’s time to ditch google cloud? After the third occurrence of this i’d blame this on you, honestly.

John Walker is the kind of guy that would (successfully) apply the engineering approach to non-engineering issues. I was amused by his book "the hacker's diet": https://www.fourmilab.ch/hackdiet/

Apple is likely to be in the position to negotiate nrfs documentation access with Microsoft for a clean-room implementation, with NDAs and everything. My money is on apple not having the will to do thar.

You’re conveniently skipping the part where x86 can run software from 40 years ago but arm can drop entire instruction sets no problem (eg: jazelle). Had been arm so weighted by backwards compatibility i doubt it would be so good as it is.

If this was a linux container, it would be a base image. I wonder if this could be used to cobble together some duct-tape windows-7-based firecrackers vm thing.

Yes. If you compile just enough linux kernel to just boot and launch a statically compiled init, it’s still linux. Similarly, this is still windows 7.

Yup. A few years a go a friend of mine made me notice my cheap third-hand thinkpad t440 had screen tearing issues i had never noticed. I couldn't unsee them after that.

as one of the commenters to the issue wrote, arguing whether the text is ai-generated or not is essentially useless. the important question is: is this an actual performance bug?

by znpy 1y ago
I definitely expect this to be a big hit. In a way, this is not new, it’s pretty much what annapurna did: they took ARM and got serious with it, creating the first high performance arm cpus. Then they got acqui-hired by amazon and the rest
