Notes

At least until it is Unplugged

No I would not do that to you.



This weekend, I'm reading two Bujolds and a Butcher to read. To give you an idea of how busy I've been, I haven’t read Peace Talks or Battle Ground.



Intel's discrete GPU chip DG1 is now available. (AnandTech)



It's not available for purchase as a credit card, laptop manufacturers. So far, I don't think the laptops have shipped.



The Ryzen 5600X is a fast processor and is a great thing considering benchmarks. (Tom's Hardware)



It's awe-inspiring if this is true. (CPUBenchmark)



The multi-threaded performance appears plausible, however the single-threaded performance comes as a complete surprise. FELA'S LONDON This benchmark is just one and it's likely that this benchmark runs especially well on Zen 3. Passmark scores are very closely linked to Python performance of code. This makes it a valuable benchmark.



If it's able to be proven AMD's newest 6 core processor is able to provide 110 percent of the single-threaded performance , and 94% of the multi-threaded performance of Intel's flagship 10 core 10900K. It's faster than an 18-core Xeon Gold 6140.



It would also be a major upgrade over my current Ryzen 1700.



Even if it states "Ships from and is sold by Amazon" you need to read the fine print.



No, I was not burned - this doesn't apply to the 400GB model which appears to be authentic. However, you can purchase SanDisk microSD card cards on Amazon AU. Anything smaller than 400GB comes with this cryptic disclaimer.



It is an aftermarket for generic parts.



Ubuntu 20.10 is available, and includes an Raspberry Pi edition. (Tom's Hardware)



It was there and I wanted to be sure. I need to install the new Linux VM onto a New Spare Laptop because the old one was messy.



In the case of spare laptops, it turns out that Old Spare Laptop has exactly the same issue with its battery as New Spare Laptop.



Old Spare Laptop has a loose connection. This, coupled with the failing battery makes it unreliable when it's plugged into. It turns out that the problem is in the charger cable, not the laptop. I remembered that I had another charger with exactly the same plug, so I swapped the two and it worked.



It will continue to work until you unplug the plug. After that, it will die instantly.



In Hololive news Gawr Gura reached 1 million subscribers and Mori Calliope hit 500k during the same Minecraft collab stream (which I watched live) and Calliope was the top-rated iTunes album in the world on the same day. Coco is back to insult her fans, and HololiveCN is being granted independence.



HoloCN girls will be granted all rights to their characters in order to become independent. China is too dangerous to deal with right now, especially given the huge success of HoloEN.



Anemoia refers to the feeling of nostalgia for something you've never felt before. (Wiktionary)



Not to be confused avec Amemoia, which is Gura's feeling about Watson.



Huawei has launched their Mate 40 series powered by the brand new Kirin 9000. (AnandTech)



The Kirin 9000's most notable characteristic is the massive Mali G78MP24. My Mediapad M3 comes with a Kirin 950 with a Mali T880MP4, so this is six times faster, and that's before clock speed and architectural improvements.



To purchase a Mate 40 would be insane. It's not cheap, and it does not come with Google services and production of the CPU – which was made on TSMC’s new 5nm process – has already been stopped by US sanctions against Huawei.
