Windows 11: with ARM64EC, applications can mix ARM and x64 code. ARM code runs natively while x64 code is emulated.
This is great for developers. They can port those modules to ARM first that'll benefit most from native execution.

@never_released Windows, cuz I want you to enjoy MSMQ Server when I fix its composition

...because that's a thing you would do?

;)

[Jon Kunkee @jkunkee]

@TrippyMonster98 It's not an unreasonable interpretation to me, given how long the port has been done and VMs for testing have been available, but hey, it's shipping now :)

[Jon Kunkee @jkunkee]

Google has taken a big step towards shipping Chrome for ARM64 Windows:

Yes, it's years after ARM64 Chromium-based Edge shipped, but it's actually happening!

[Pedro Justo @itanium_guy]

As much as I might not to admit, this is huge. Chrome for Arm64 is here.

[Jon Kunkee @jkunkee]

@itanium_guy @Myriachan Did that finally get documented?

[Jon Kunkee @jkunkee]

CPU-Z is now available for ARM64 Windows!

[Jon Kunkee @jkunkee]

@Myriachan On ARM64, if they're using proper capability checks or the undocumented registry keys for privileged register values, they don't really need a driver--but that doesn't mean much.

[Jon Kunkee @jkunkee]

@Myriachan I rather don’t know, unfortunately. They would have had to build with a newer toolset to get ARM64, and that would have come with new warnings and checks, but who knows whether they ignored those or had issues those don't catch...

You can't get far in a COVID discussion without someone claiming the vaccines don't "stop" transmission. So for reference, here's a non-exhaustive list of published studies & preprints that show being vaccinated against COVID reduces the likelihood of COVID transmission. 🧵

We are confused that human hasn’t started getting ready for bed. She says it’s because it’s almost time to switch the calendars and that also means she has to stay up to distract us from booms other people make…

There's a new preprint that's being misinterpreted/misrepresented about the new XBB.1.5 boosters:

Firstly, it's good news for the boosters.

I am pleased that after filing comments in support of the @FTC's CARS Rule, it has been finalized. This rule will protect car buyers and make sure they have the information they need to make the best choice. Read more on how below:

@never_released If it ain't in the HLK, does it truly exist?

[Pedro Justo @itanium_guy]

Folks, there is an ACPI mapping bug in Canary builds >= 25997. It does not affect @UTMapp or VMWare. Fix in the work. Sorry for the inconvenience.

[Jeremy Sinclair #ฺNET @sinclairinat0r]

Sorry folks, I temporarily glitched and had an out of body experience due to happiness.

[Jon Kunkee @jkunkee]

It’s very shiny

[Jon Kunkee @jkunkee]

#Microsoft #Ignite just announced Azure Cobalt, an in-house Arm Server CPU. Been watching this internally for a while and I’m pretty stoked to see it go public next year.

And yeah, I don’t know if they got the name from 2014, but it would be neat if they did.
