Which is more of an artificial bundling to drive people to the total upgrade package of the Touchbar, but it does create a merit of the model in the end. I wish we could get the 28W chips in the nontouchbar though. 

The Airpods are great little things, for the regular 169 tier I’d like it to focus entirely on improving sound quality within the same size and battery life rather than shrinking the stems or anything just yet. The model priced above it - I guess waterproofing/more sports...Stuff? And then the over the ears cans, they…

God their steel links band looks nice, but I couldn’t justify 150 for it. Anyone see a replica yet? 

It was mostly a joke re: lost the thread lol, but a slice on its own could not function as a core, they use both in the same sentence - ‘8 or 4 threaded core built from modular execution slices’. As the adjacent diagram shows the slices are sharing core features like the branch prediction, instruction buffer, etc. So…

Huh, so that’s why IBM went with 8x Hyperthreading

The Gen graphics guys wanted to do this years ago, Intel management didn’t have the will after Larrabee. Good and slightly sad read here. Still a bit sour they took Project Offset down with them.

The first teaser was at a Sony event, now this, so safe to say it’s on both plus PC.

From Software, using a vivid color pallet, in a Samurai era setting?

Deprecated doesn’t mean it won’t run fwiw, they dragged on the 32 bit killing for a long time for instance.

I just wish they natively supported Vulkan alongside Metal, not the bridge with limitations, then I’d say go ahead and kill OpenGL/CL.

OpenCL and OpenGL:

I wonder how much monoprice cut into them. I tell everyone looking for HDMI cables to go with them. A digital signal is a digital signal, the 1s and 0s are received or not, a bajillion dollar cable won’t make your picture prettier.

Best Buy/Futureshop were the worst peddlers. I heard a rep tell a customer that the split ends on the component cable transferred more data once, smh. The company pretty well exists on ripping off the old or ignorant.

Resorting to the crypto stock price bump. Safe to say they’re circling the drain and this won’t stall it much. They’ve been ripping off the ignorant for years so no tears here. 

So is this /the/ Pokemon game for Switch that they announced at the hardware launch, or is this a smaller deal with a larger title coming?

I’ve got this. I have a son. He’s 10 years old. He has computers. He is so good with these computers, it’s unbelievable. The security aspect of cyber is very, very tough. And maybe it’s hardly do-able. But I will say, we are not doing the job we should be doing, but that’s true throughout our whole governmental…

Yeah, they tried making a demo of this game that ran on ray tracing, but it ran faster on an 16 core Tigerton than Larrabee.

With Larrabee shitcanned, PO unfortunately died too.  

It looked like a fair bit of story in this documentary. I wish we could see what they did have, even in incomplete form.

See, I must have forgotten that was an old phrase

It’s a topic that always interests me that human minds have been largely the same for about 200,000 years or more. Ritualistic, pre-writing, yes, but no reason not to be every bit as curious and able to learn as us.

The game was jarring as soon as we got to her in person. This dude who just threw a woman in a cheese grater for no reason is *instantly* extremely sympathetic to this rando, not just “huh, you remind me of my daughter a bit”, instant connection and concern, it was weird. And her “over here, Kratos!” shit got tiring…
