Back in the early 90s, before the Internet, we had "Defrag and Chill". You'd start Disk Defragmenter on your 540MB hard drive, dim the lights, crack open a Surge, and just vibe while the little blue bars crawled across the screen like they were solving world peace. Forty-five minutes of pure, unfiltered anticipation. No notifications. No algorithms. Just the two of you, the gentle grinding of the hard drive, and the sacred promise that your Solitaire games were about to feel 3% snappier.

This is MS_DOS 6.22, which I worked on, but I honestly have no idea who wrote defrag. Iconic utility though!

@MakeAugusta How could these crocodiles (?) hide in likely less than ~25 cm/10" deep water?

My quick note about #Intel
#ArrowLake CPUID C0662 #LionCove
and
#PantherLake CPUID C06C3 #CougarCove
instruction level differences

I hope this is because all resources were directed towards developing #CoyoteCove / #PantherCove in #NovaLake and #Diamondrapids.

Sometimes, you don't want the routing to be easy. You just want to live in one big Keep Out zone.

A 390 TB video game archive was about to disappear.

The internet had other plans.

When Myrient announced it would shut down due to rising server and RAM costs, the community launched the Minerva Archive project.

Dozens of volunteers began mirroring the entire collection.

ROMs
ISOs
prototypes
BIOS files
development builds

Covering hundreds of systems from obscure platforms to major consoles.

Every file was verified using hashes to ensure 1:1 preservation.

Result: the archive reached **99.99%+ completion weeks before shutdown.**

Retro gaming history saved.<

There are a few working #WildCatLake - with filled brand string - among #Intel test machines: (Core 7 305, CPUID D06D1, 6c/6t (2P+4LPE probably), 2500 MHz base freq, no HTT, no AVX512, I think Intel 18A)

Alex Evans @mmalex walks me through the entire process of designing hardware, from part selection through actual designs and even including ordering!

We're making our tiniest game console! Highly technical episode!

In the next part we will be implementing the software for the console after it arrives!

there is a game called "data center" on steam which let's you build and manage your own data center.

this is lowkey genius, the best way to educate people on a new trait. hyperscalers should learn a thing or two from "edutainment".

[I. Lausannopoulos @etinHelvetiaEgo]

@aakashgupta Misdirection... and false alarmism for some likes...

The actual number is 3.61‱ (using the per-ten-thousand symbol ‱, also known as "permyriad").

This equates to 3.61 per 10,000 CPUs (or 0.0361%).

Is this some CPUs died out of millions sold or is it more than that? I bought a 9800X3D to kill on an Asrock board about 6 months ago now, still trying to kill it, I've tried 3 boards and every BIOS. I've recorded most of it so we might make a video at some point.

I've also been speaking with retailers and distributors and none of them are reporting a high failure rate for these CPUs, basically they tell me everything looks normal, if anything fewer than expected are returned for warranty issues.

Anyway I'll keep trying to kill my retail 9800X3D...

Thanks to @TDevilfish insightful comments, now is clear that classic #AMD #Zen6 CCD will come with SP8 socket only in the server space. This lead to the revelation is that B50F00 CPUID is means the #Venice with dense CCD.
