I think they will apply learning from Apple, they’ve been in the VR game for a lot longer after all.

yyyy.mm.dd does honestly makes by far the most sense. That being said, north america switching to day first would already be a massive achievement.

Yeah, I don’t understand why Americans (and notebookcheck) still use MM-DD-YYYY.

With less “out of the box” software support.

That being said the original Tinker Board was a decent upgrade over the then current Pi 3B which had atrocious ethernet performance (~20 MB/s max IIRC).

GSMArena states that the Huawei MatePad 12 X was released on September 19th 2024.

Agreed, I initially did get confused when reading the article.

What Chinese 5nm/7nm production volume are you referring to?

3,925 ST in Geekbench is some series single thread performance, and in a laptop no less.

Worth reading if the semiconductor industry is one of your interests.

Paints a pretty bad picture of Gelsinger. I wonder how systematic these issues are. However the examples cited are too serious to be ignored IMO.

I doubt there are any large cities with even 25% solar panel coverage.

I just hope the 5800X3D will still be available in 3-4 months.

Although I might buy it now as many of our local outlets are out of stock. Prices are very high though.

You are lucky that your employer paid for your monitor. The input switching issues do sound extremely annoying though. This is something you want to work without any issues or any actions.

Agreed, the official process was a massive pain and borderline non functional.

Would be good to have ECC ram as a standard on the consumer side as well, but I doubt this will ever happen due to segmentation and honestly lack of market demand (you can’t market such a feature).

Most optical memory storage methods developed in the past, including CDs and DVDs, are limited by the diffraction limit of light. A single data point cannot be smaller than the wavelength of the laser writing and reading the data. In the new work, the researchers proposed boosting the bit density of optical storage by embedding many rare-earth emitters within the material. By using slightly different wavelengths of light — an approach known as wavelength multiplexing — they hypothesized that these emitters could hold more data within the same area.

An interesting approach. In my limited understanding, this is comparable to getting more space by using different disc standards (CD, DVD, Bluray) at the same time.

That being said, on the consumer side everything seems to be moving towards solid state storage mediums. Even if this does get commercialized in the next ~5 years, I can’t see this competing with SSDs on the consumer side.

It’s a keyboard that allows you type violently by punching it. AI algorithms are used to converts punches into meaningful keypresses.

That ship has sailed.

While always liked larger screen phones (even back when they were called phablets), I do wish we had more choice (and competition) in our smartphone products. But I guess the impact of economies of scale and platform network effects is so large that we can’t really have effective competition.

Or USB-C requirements.

I believe the overall naming methodology (2xx numbering, ultra vs non-ultra, main numeral) are similar across desktop and mobile.

Personally I wish both CPUs and GPUs fr mobile had an -M suffix or something similar.

I lived in North America for ~10 years, the whole time I still converted miles / pounds / fahrenheit into real units in my head.

To this day, feet/yards etc. sounds like made up measures to me.
