    AMD Claims Arm ISA Doesn't Offer Efficiency Advantage Over x86

    It's why electronics were as cheap as they were during the 80's and 90's. It's probably why there was so much innovation because there wasn't anything limiting Japan. Pentium M was nice but I think Athlon 64 was better. CoreDuo was also nice but was also only 32-bit. It wasn't until the...

    Apple intros MacBook Neo: $599 with an iPhone chip

    I favor the GPU performance of Ryzen more so than Intel. Mostly because I use Linux and Intel still has more work to get their GPU performance to match that of AMD in Linux. Hopefully the A19 Pro has a heatsink.

    LG TVs caught spying even when offline or on standby

    With the current governments both in the EU and USA we are better off doing it ourselves. Not saying don't try, but we depend on people voting for the right representatives to make sure our privacy and freedoms are intact. Two years ago I never thought we'd have this amount of laws going...

    A new California law says all operating systems, including Linux, need to have some form of age verification at account setup

    All I know is the harder they try to use technology against people, the more surprised they'll be when smarter people fight back. The problem isn't going to be Windows and MacOS complying, because they obviously will, but the amount of Windows 11 and MacOS machines that'll have stripped out the...

    AMD Claims Arm ISA Doesn't Offer Efficiency Advantage Over x86

    It is a mystery. It could be these chips end up in drones for all we know? Licensing x86 has always been a good idea. I just don't know if AMD and Intel are ready to allow this? I'd like to see the market flooded with cheap x86 clones for SmartTV's and RaspberryPi's. This licensing move...

    LG TVs caught spying even when offline or on standby

    Apple TV doesn't let you sideload apps like SmartTube. Finding a good Android TV box is a matter of doing some research. Not sure why people consider Apple TV boxes? I would say get an Nvidia Shield but you can't find those anymore. https://youtu.be/sdLnieL90d0?si=AxXJLgUZ28tVJLob The other...

    AMD Claims Arm ISA Doesn't Offer Efficiency Advantage Over x86

    Developing an x86 CPU isn't cheap, especially the stuff I'm hearing in this new chip. So far it has 16 and 32 tile AMX, APX, FRED, x86S, and other engineering feats. It might be made for servers since it's X86S? It makes far more sense to pay for an ARM license. RISC-V is free and already...

    LG TVs caught spying even when offline or on standby

    Wendel from Level1Techs is involved and I have more faith in him. Gamers Nexus video shows the microphones are actually really good. Good enough to hear people talking from another room. Electrical tape might muffle it enough to prevent it from hearing at a distance. The solution we need...

    AMD Claims Arm ISA Doesn't Offer Efficiency Advantage Over x86

    Realistically, most laptops are used near an outlet but also realistically there's maybe an hour of battery life difference between Apple vs AMD and Intel. Apple still has a battery life advantage but it's marginal at best. The main advantage Apple has is performance because neither AMD nor...

    AMD Claims Arm ISA Doesn't Offer Efficiency Advantage Over x86

    You're quoting something that wasn't even true in 2025, let alone 2026. Both AMD and Intel machines can last all day on battery while video editing, and not lose much in performance. The exception is if the laptop has an RTX GPU which isn't great for battery life but is great for gaming. The...

    AMD Claims Arm ISA Doesn't Offer Efficiency Advantage Over x86

    Seems to be a secret x86 CPU being made that will make use of X86S. Said mysterious x86 CPU is said to have more advanced AMX instructions. X86 won't be a duopoly for very long. https://www.phoronix.com/news/x86-CPU-With-APX-x86S

    Apple intros MacBook Neo: $599 with an iPhone chip

    The other laptop wasn't as bad, but it was still stuttery. Don't remember if it was a Wildcat Lake based chip? The other Windows laptops could do editing much quicker. Again, I have to remind you this. Isn't worth the 50 cents savings for a hunk of aluminum. Macbook Air has a heatsink...

    Apple intros MacBook Neo: $599 with an iPhone chip

    No heatsink either. Literally no cooling. Only in your imagination. Windows laptops with fans will outperform the Neo easily. Intel doesn't need Wildcat but a heatsink with a fan. MackBook Air M1 or just regular Macbook? Apple still puts fans... in laptops they care about. And if...

    Apple intros MacBook Neo: $599 with an iPhone chip

    We've had this discussion before and the Neo has no cooling. It's so bad that people have guides on how to cool them.

    Apple intros MacBook Neo: $599 with an iPhone chip

    Macbook Air's are "properly cooled". Otherwise he's right about everything else.
