Apparently the instruction set is off-brand MIPS64?!

I’m not an American but my impression is the Supreme Court is mainly designed as a last bulwark to ensure the US never under any circumstances ever does anything remotely good and this isn’t exactly improving that impression.

It’s even funnier if you know I’m a trans woman rather early in my transition and that I do, in fact, just barely have boobs

I’m a bit worried about their choice of name

Our 21-months old torpedo jumped my wife, who was quietly drinking tea in our sofa. Naturally, my wife did the only safe thing; a controlled spill of most of her tea on the side of the sofa that didn’t have the violence toddler attacking. Seeing this, said toddler commented “mommy spilled” and kept laughing like a maniac.

She’s also very fond of pulling out the top of whomever is holding her, shouting BOOOOB.

Today she also saw the sun in the morning after yesterday’s thunderstorm (it’s always bright outside here now as far as she knows since the sun sets long after her bedtime and rises long before she wakes up) and yelled “look! The lamp is on!”.

Sweden’s mostly on Meta Messenger. WhatsApp is the foreign exchange student protocol.

My first is one and a half and change now and after getting out of year one, which was absolute hell for me, I kind of understand where you are. I don’t feel exactly the same as you, but I do feel a lot more hope than I’d have expected.

My kid is a lot like @MagikShel’s youngest it sounds like, and she’s often extremely angry about my general existence, let alone any of my attempts at parenting her but in a way that comforts me because I see someone able to fight for what she wants at an early age and I’m very proud of that.

Can you (or a human) expand NPM, presumably not the Node Package Manager?

I tried but it turns out writing device drivers it very very boring

Has anyone been able to find an actual description of what this does? I clicked two layers deep and neither explains the details. It does sound like they’re doing CPU scheduling in the hardware, which is cool and makes some sense, but the descriptions are too vague to explain what the hell this is except “more parallelism goes brrrr” and it’s not clear to me why current GPUs aren’t already that.

The hell? This is precisely what atomic desktops were supposed to save us from!

I’m planning on making Linux from super scratch where I start with the kernel and write every other component myself. ETA: 9000000 years

Oh no we’ve gone full circle

Shows how much I know! (Nothing)

I assume we need a lot of breakthroughs to even have useful quantum computing at all, but sure.

Isn’t quantum encryption interesting for end users?

Wow they just…disabled all RAM over 3 GB because some drivers had hard coded some mapped memory? Jfc

The comments on this one really surprised me. I thought the kinds of people who hang out on XDA-developers were developers. I assumed that developers had a much better understanding of computer architecture than the people commenting (who of course may not be representative of all readers).

I also get the idea that the writer is being vague not to simplify but because they genuinely don’t know the details, which feels even worse.

Interesting! Do you have a link to a write up about this? I don’t know anything about the windows memory manager

Presumably you’d have a QPU in your regular computer, like with other accelerators for graphics etc, or possibly a tiny one for cryptography integrated in the CPU

Sounds like that list is getting pretty short
