- Comment on 60% of PC gamers have no plans to build a new PC in the next two years — AI pricing crunch on RAM and other components paralyze enthusiast market 2 weeks ago:
Not sure how much gamers will care, but the next gen CPUs are leaked to have more cores per ccd so multitasking performance should go way up. Given the 9000 series mostly aimed for efficiency rather than speed, I’m expecting at least half decent gains for single threaded too.
This is mostly unrelated to your comment, I just wanted to share a small bit of hope about the performance increase aspect lol

The author thinks “looks like an animated billboard” is a positive???

- Comment on Nearly 90% of Windows Games now run on Linux, latest data shows 6 months ago:
Really? I could’ve sworn I’d played that on Linux before, unless it’s been a lot longer than I thought since I touched it. Are we talking BTD6 on steam specifically?
- Comment on Megrez2: 21B latent, 7.5B on VRAM, 3B active—MoE on single 8GB card 8 months ago:
Trying to literally ELI5 so this might be oversimplified a bit:
New AI model using a Mixture of Experts (MoE) approach, which combines different AIs that are optimized for certain things into one AI that’s good at more things. This usually needs a lot of space on graphics cards and requires really high end hardware, but this model fits into 8gb of space on a card, which is a very common amount to have on a modern graphics card, so many more people will be able to use it.

- Comment on Lenovo demos laptop with a screen you can swivel into portrait mode 8 months ago:
Both monitors I’ve used over the last decade can do this, and I think I’ve actually turned the screen like twice in that time frame. Laptop screens are already shitty and fragile enough for me, thanks
