@NuminousVoidX @mooreslawisdead Correct, they’re smaller but share the same microarchitecture. https://t.co/kSZbmR3l1r

[Jacob_Lenahan @LenahanJacob]

@ZephyrionVortex @highyieldYT @mooreslawisdead Yes, slower clock speeds and a physically more compact design on the silicon wafer. There’s nothing wrong with having a cpu with cores designed to be more power and space efficient.

[Jacob_Lenahan @LenahanJacob]

@NuminousVoidX @mooreslawisdead They would not perform the same but that doesn’t make them different cores. Even on desktop chips that have all core boosts only a couple cores will turbo even further. (Typically 2 cores.)

[Jacob_Lenahan @LenahanJacob]

@NuminousVoidX @mooreslawisdead They are full cores they use the exact same architecture unlike Intel’s big-little approach.

[Jacob_Lenahan @LenahanJacob]

@mooreslawisdead AMD’s C cores are not the same thing as Intel’s weak E cores, they share the same architecture as AMD’s P cores unlike Intel.

[Jacob_Lenahan @LenahanJacob]

@ZephyrionVortex @highyieldYT @mooreslawisdead Compact cores, they are the exact same cores down clocked and physically smaller.

@ddofinternet @Wendys An industry analyst maintained their rating of $8 a share the day before the price changed, the average rating is $7.84 per share with institutions owning most of the shares. Was it Reddit’s doing or was the stock undervalued and receiving a price adjustment? We will have to see.

@palantirheart @Dexerto Here is an example of the considerations Valve may have for the product that the average user may not notice: https://t.co/nKvAg8ZQj8

[Jacob_Lenahan @LenahanJacob]

@palantirheart @Dexerto It takes many years to design a product such as the Steam Machine and many of the parts are already ordered for the original design. It would make no sense, need a redesign and would cost extra to put legacy components into the console.

@palantirheart @Dexerto The only way Valve would get a DDR4 memory controller on Zen 4 is if they made custom silicon which would be much more expensive and harder to produce opposed to going with the off the shelf solution of Zen 4 with a DDR5 memory controller.

Valve is a software focused company.

[Jacob_Lenahan @LenahanJacob]

@palantirheart @Dexerto AMD’s C cores are the same exact architecture as their P cores, the difference is the physical size, down clock, and cache on board the chip. The C stands for compact.

This is a completely different approach to Intel’s big-little approach that uses different architectures.

[Jacob_Lenahan @LenahanJacob]

@palantirheart @Dexerto It’s a Zen 4 chip, that architecture was designed with only a DDR5 memory controller in mind.

@hankgreen Short term capital gains are taxed as income, long term capital gains are taxes lower, the tax system functions this way to incentivize people to invest in long term quality assets.

[Jacob_Lenahan @LenahanJacob]

@Dexerto As long as it is written with and approved by Valve I don’t see an issue with that. It could be a good way to explore Doug Ratman’s backstory and more about aperture other than the Lab Rat comic.

Valve co-founder Gabe Newell responded to accusations that Steam operates as a monopoly in the PC gaming market

Addressing the criticism, Newell said gamers have “plenty of options” when buying games.

According to him, players can choose from many digital stores, including rival platforms and stores run by game publishers themselves.

Valve says Steam’s success comes from a service that both gamers and developers willingly choose.

@bonkgmbh @Pirat_Nation And most likely a worse implementation considering it’s running Windows instead of code specifically written for the hardware like Apple does.

[Jacob_Lenahan @LenahanJacob]

@Pirat_Nation “… stronger gaming and AI performance than current Windows-on-ARM devices.”

Well it’s easy considering they are going from near zero support to basic support, it’s practically an infinite improvement. Windows will probably still mess up the arm implementation though.

[Jacob_Lenahan @LenahanJacob]

@vxunderground Maybe he’s a lot more happy doing what he does now rather than cybersecurity. You never truly know what’s going on in someone’s mind and life unless you ask.

California lawmakers are moving to exempt most Linux distributions from the state’s upcoming age-verification law after backlash from the open-source community.

The original law would require operating systems to verify a user’s age during setup and share that information with apps through a built-in system API.
Because the wording was broad, many developers believed it could apply to Linux distributions like Ubuntu and Fedora.

That led to backlash from developers, who said the rules would be hard for volunteer-run open-source projects to follow.

In response, lawmakers introduced changes narrowing the law’s scope and likely exempting most Linux distributions.

@JeffMJohns1 @coldnadongie @riotgames I remember when people said the kernel level anti-cheat was perfect and there are no cheaters in game. I’m sure the cheaters definitely won’t find a new way to bypass the system like they did previously.
