I am assuming they are referring to ray-tracing in general as “RTX”. AMD GPUs can do ray tracing.

WTF is this?

This seems like a win-win scenario for everyone involved.

He is an admin of lemmygrad. A cesspool of degenerate LARPers that support genocidal imperialism.

Mao is a mass murderer and an authoritarian. If you support him, you are white washing his crimes. You do understand that good things can be achieved without mass killings and implementing an authoritarian, one party state? Difficult stuff, I know!

No, they support the killing of Ukrainians and extermination of Ukrainian identity. They support interment of ten of thousands of Ukrainian civilians in russian torture camps. They support the destruction of the Ukraine as a nation and Ukrainian cultural identity.

It is fair and just to want such vile individuals to get a taste of their own medicine.

The NATO expansion stuff is a ruse. NATO expansion is determined by national self-determination; especially when your neighbour is a country where a strong majority of the population are genocidal imperialist.

I remember reading that there is no progress on commercialization and it’s still mostly an R&D project.

And it’s not like we’ve hit a hard wall in terms of semiconductor fabrication. Prices are going up, but we are still seeing steady and continued improvements with new nodes and packaging approaches.

Bluesky is a corporate hedge to delay the social network business from becoming not a business, it is headed by variously naive or disengenous tech people who believe they are creating the future when they are mercenaries for the past.

That’s a great sounding description.

It’s too bad we can’t add it to their about about page.

I personally lean towards disingenuous though. Tech oligarchs and their lackeys are many things, but not naive.

They are likely trying to promote the URL in the post body as opposed to sharing this (highly generic) info on Lemmy.

Thanks for sharing. Going to read this before bed (yes, I am a nerd).

Having multiple DND profile would be very helpful.

At last a new Android feature that I somewhat excited for. I honestly stop following Android updates around 9/10.

Main hardware community is doing good, with solid growth in subscribers and some organic engagement.

Child communities (Laptops, Gaming Laptops, Monitors) are seeing much slower growth and very weak engagement. But that’s to be expected. It helps that supporting them works in parallel to the main hardware community.

Cheers!

Thanks for those links. Will take a look.

I am honestly surprised we don’t see more “power user” type benchmarks for measuring AI Compute for use cases such as video upscaling, local LLM (my next project, I use ChatGPT as an elaborate spell checker, but I want to switch away from corporate cloud solutions).

It puzzles me why he might administrate both instances.

Come on now. Does it really puzzle you why he would admin lemmygrad? I am sorry, I don’t buy this.

He made quite a lot of bad stuff, that’s true. However, he also liberated the country from foreign occupation and advanced literacy, women’s rights, basic healthcare, education, and life expectancy. China’s population nearly doubled under his leadership. This is why he is considered controversial. It’s strange to compare him with someone who occupied half of Europe.

So you’re saying that there is something inherent to Chinese culture that would not make it possible to advance literacy, women’s right, basic healthcare without mass killings and brutality? Mao is a mass murderer.

You made conclusions about his opinions yourself and are trying to argue against them. Condemn actual statements. I don’t see dessalines wishing harm on you, but I do see you doing the very thing you criticize him for.

Dessalines admins a instance that openly supports russia’s (a country that’s not in any way socialist) genocidal invasion of my country. That’s not wishing me harm?

I would like to know how well the NPUs would work on more specialized tasks.

AI up-scaling of video takes about ~30 minutes for a 5 min SD min video (sometimes it can be longer) on my 3080.

I’ve seen reviews reference the 3080 having ~238 TOPS, which implies that current gen NPUs would take significantly longer in upscaling.

I would be willing to get a dedicated NPU if it offered significantly faster AI upscaling relative to high-end GPUs. Having software and an ecosystem provided by the NPU manufacturer would also be nice.

20% yields for their 2nd gen 3 nm GAA is rough. I am surprised they haven’t any notable design wins with their 1st gen at 50%-60% yields, I guess that’s still way too low to be commercially viable.

The term secular can be used outside of religious context.

of or relating to a long term of indefinite duration

secular inflation

Now we just need rebel hackers and global anti-corporate rebellions.

They are truly commited to their intel fandom .

In a way, I respect this more than corpo-shills who do not have an opinion at all.

There is an abstract beauty about their dedication. It’s like a good art house movie about the inherent contradictions in life; except the topic at hand is nerdy electronics company drama BS.

Like with all tech, if it does get commercialized and sees broad uptake, it will eventually massively drop down in price (albeit you’ll probably see list prices that account for secular inflation).
