Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldOPMto Hardware@lemmy.world•Intel Talks How It Is Enabling High-Fidelity Visuals & Faster Performance on Built-in GPUs, Demos Ray Reconstruction-Like Denoiser For Path Tracing On Arc B580English3·10 hours agoPath tracing on an iGPU? That’s the quite the goal!
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Resurrecting a dead torrent tracker and finding 3 million peersEnglish103·1 day agoFunny how the author immediately decided to shut everything down when he realized the number of peer/torrents still sending requests to the domain.
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Taiwan adds China’s Huawei, SMIC to export blacklistEnglish95·3 days agoI am really surprised your account wasn’t from ML. This seems very similar to the usual degenerate word salad you hear from the tankies.
Although I will give you points for originality, this is a somewhat new type of word salad.
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldOPMto Hardware@lemmy.world•Chinese memory-maker YMTC sues Micron for defamationEnglish2·3 days agoYeah, your right. They are focused on NAND/flash, for some reason I misremembered them being a player in DDR RAM.
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldOPMto Hardware@lemmy.world•Chinese memory-maker YMTC sues Micron for defamationEnglish1·3 days agoThey are a rising player in more commodity-like RAM types.
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldto Android@lemdro.id•Performance figures of Galaxy S26's 3nm Snapdragon chip have leakedEnglish3·4 days ago4,000 ST in Geekbench 6 is a very high score by modern standards.
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldMto Hardware@lemmy.world•The trendline doesn’t look good for hard disk drivesEnglish3·4 days agoI believe NVMe is designed for a different storage architecture (SSD) and there aren’t really benefits to using an HDD with a NVMe (other than simplification due to the use of single protocop as outlined in the article).
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldto Green Energy@slrpnk.net•Director General Grossi’s Statement to UNSC on Situation in Iran | IAEA21·4 days agoI am no supporter of the aytollahs, but I highly doubt nuclear facilities are for civilian use only. They would be stupid to not use them for military programs (perhaps in an indirect manner).
This doesn’t change the fact that attacking such facilities is dangerous, but we should differentiate when countries truly use nuclear power for peaceful purposes only.

Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Gamers Are Reportedly Skipping GPU Upgrades Due to Soaring Prices — Paying Bills Takes Priority Over Chasing NVIDIA’s RTX 5090English1·4 days agoShipment/POS do not telling you anything about unfulfilled demand or “unrealized supply”.
It’s just how unit were shipped into the channel and sales at retail respectively.
These are the best data points that we have to understand demand dynamic.
Gamers are also a notoriously dramatic demography that often don’t go through on what they say.
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Gamers Are Reportedly Skipping GPU Upgrades Due to Soaring Prices — Paying Bills Takes Priority Over Chasing NVIDIA’s RTX 5090English1·4 days agoThat’s why it’s best to focus on absolute unit shipment numbers/POS.
If total units increased compared to the previous generation launch, then people are still buying GPUs.
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldto Android@lemdro.id•[Discussion] Why are Android boot times relatively slow?English5·4 days agoI believe it’s at least partially tied to Android’s architecture, for example how you need to “optimize apps” on first boot.
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Free NetBSD server user account only for educational purposesEnglish1·4 days agoWhen I read “open shell account server” I thought this meant anyone can get access programmatically. This sounded like a disaster.
But turns out, at least with the respect to this NetBSD specific offer, you have to send out an application.
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Is Google about to destroy the web?English42·4 days agoGoogle disagrees. In fact, the company tells the BBC that AI Overviews have been good for the web, and AI Mode will be no different. Google insists these features send users to “a greater diversity of websites” and the traffic is “higher quality” because people spend more time on the links they click.
However, the company hasn’t provided data to back up these claims.
This is how we know they are lying.
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldto Google@lemdro.id•Google just released the first major Snapseed update in yearsEnglish3·4 days agoSnapseed is still around?
Also funny that the update is only for iOS
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Gamers Are Reportedly Skipping GPU Upgrades Due to Soaring Prices — Paying Bills Takes Priority Over Chasing NVIDIA’s RTX 5090English14·4 days agoIt seems like gamers have finally realized that the newest GPUs by NVIDIA and AMD are getting out of reach, as a new survey shows that many of them are skipping upgrades this year.
Data on GPU shipments and/or POS sales showing a decline would be much more reliable than a survey.
Surveys can at times suffer from showing what the respondents want to reply as opposed to what they do.

NVMe HDDs?
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldto retrocomputing@lemmy.sdf.org•Power Without the Price – Atari TOS 1.x + GEM 1.x – GUI Wonderland1·6 days agoVery cool article (and series).
Thanks for sharing.
Alphane Moon@lemmy.worldto Nothing@lemdro.id•Nothing has 'killed the Glyph Interface' ahead of Phone (3) launchEnglish1·7 days agoI am a little bit surprised that they did that.
On one hand it feels like a useless feature, but then it was also a key part of their branding.
This (official?) thread on their forums implies 7 years of support.
