Intel's AI PC chips aren't selling; instead, last-gen Raptor Lake booms and creates a shortage
Intel announced that its new AI PC chips aren't selling as well as expected. As a result, it faces a shortage of production capacity for its 'Intel 7' process node, and the company expects this shortage to "persist for the foreseeable future."

Bin gerade auch mit meiner #Dreamcast Anwendung vorwärts gekommen. Das abspielen der #CDDA Tracks funktioniert so, wie ich das erwarte, wenn man es auf der echten #Hardware laufen lässt. Im #Emulator, in diesem Fall #Flycast, funktioniert es nicht richtig. Mal einen Bugreport einreichen, bzw. vielleicht auch mal in den Quellcode reinschauen und ggf. einen Patch einreichen. Mal schauen.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB vs RTX 4060 Ti 16GB: Blackwell GB206 takes on Ada AD106
The new RTX 5060 Ti 16GB should naturally be faster than the previous-generation RTX 4060 Ti 16GB, but just how much faster, and are there any other differences you should know about? We compare the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB vs RTX 4060 Ti 16GB and look at price, performance, features, and availability.

Newegg has RTX 5090 bundles starting at $3,139 — the fastest GPU paired with a lackluster Z890 motherboard
It's been nigh on impossible to buy an RTX 5090 for anywhere close to the supposed $1,999 MSRP, with most cards in the U.S. starting at around $4,000. Newegg has some RTX 5090 + Z890 motherboard starting at $3,139 if you're looking for options, th…

Continued thread
We're fast approaching an e-waste catastrophe: Windows 10's end-of-life this October.
Almost 4 years since Windows 11 came out, I still don't understand why it needs TPM 2.0, except to force a massive hardware upgrade cycle.
Clearly we need some sort of uprising against this. We need people to have pride in extending the useful life of their hardware and give the finger to unwanted (and privacy-invading) AI features meant to boost sales.

Continued thread
Personal computing needs have stagnated in the last decade. Most people don't need to chase the latest hardware, nor would they even notice the difference.
Most mid-range laptops sold today could easily last for the next 15 years. The treadmill is the software, and all because these giant companies need continuous feeding to remain giants.
Software needs are stagnant too, especially at the OS level, but developers are incentivized to be wasteful.
