Obviously not, there is no memory inside the glass, and bandwidth is limited. LCD screens still scan in. The difference is LCD keeps picture until told otherwise, whole picture is emitting light. CRT has limited phosphor persistence, there

You mean giving control back to the users of your software? Google doesnt play like that. Motership knows best! You cant even freeze chrome extensions.

You were admired the same way people admire iphones or European supercars. Great to have a token white guy for random photo op, but dont count on getting real job or any kind of power/control (like being able to create a company etc.)

This might be useful for password cracking on GPUs. I imagine there is negligent traffic on the bus in this scenario.

Those prices match Intel promotions and bonus gifts Intel ordinarily offers to big distributors for pushing hi-end product (CPU and Chipsets). There is nothing suggesting Microcenter is running a loss on this, they might have a very thin ma

Quicksync is a marketing bullet point. Nobody sane uses this crap because quality is abysmal. Its bad for streamers (they usually run second PC just for stream compression), and bad for archiving video(quality again).

You cant restore SSDs. I would assume Googlers are rolling SATA SSDs, if not M.2 PCIE ones. What Google could be doing is remote logging on the laptops - logs uploaded to ze cloud every time you connect to the mothership. Plugging in USB dr

Its still better than nothing. AMD management is dysfunctional, they treat engineering as a cost and were cutting it badly during K9-K10 era.

by rasz_pl 10y ago
AMD has a history of having dysfunctional R&D: 386DX - copied Intel design verbatim (1:1 microcode). Got sued, won only because Intel had multiple source agreements with IBM. K6 - purchased NexGen. Designed 100% by outsiders. K7 - once

I have to wonder if the AMDs console win for the current generation gave them this badly needed R&D to reach decent TDP.

They might play dirty games instead (again). Intel loves incentivising its distributors with bonuses and deal combos. Sell top Intel CPU + expensive motherboard with top Intel chipset = receive free Intel SSD etc. Of course distributors are

Even if they optimize to the point of native Windows speed it will still be slower than native Linux. Its a well known fact some heavy IO programs run faster under Wine than native.
