Sure but I cannot order the laptop with OpenGL ES 3...

I'm not going to buy anything before I can get what I need...

Ok, that's better than their laptop! OpenGL ES 3!

MMO server + client.

Too bad it's only OpenGL ES 2, I need 3.

Do they have a roadmap for upgrades?

Simple, you wipe them off when you change the heatpaste.

This is what this looks like in practice: http://move.rupy.se/file/cluster_client.png

You can also use streacom cases with Atom 8-core (load balancer) and Xeon for that extra kick in computing, but 3x Raspberry 4 can saturate a symmetric 1Gb/s.

Rather than 1x 10Gb/s it's better to have 2x 1Gb/s (preferably distant from each other) with all passively cooled components under 60 celcius at full blast during the hottest day in summer.

The whole capable of running atleast 24 hours on lead-acid backup.

Yes, all energy requires more energy since EROEI (energy return on energy invested) on dead trees went below 10-to-1 in the past decades (initially around 100-to-1 when coal, oil and gas where initially discovered).

Wind and solar are only interesting in very small solutions (think small sailing boats), nuclear is super energy intense to build! Hydro is the ONLY balanced investment but all good locations are already in use.

It's deflationary (atleast on what you can borrow for), so usually people wait.

Just like you would not buy a house now, you wouldn't start a business.

I'm talking statistically, not like a rule. ZERO relative to lower rates.

In Sweden we got 0.75% since a week back on the closest thing to a state bank (SBAB) since the Riksgalden was closed a few years back.

I think wages only can go up with abundant energy.

This time around interest is lagging inflation by atleast 1 year.

In the 70s the rate and salaries increased BEFORE the inflation occured = inflation was rate/salary driven and because debt level was lower.

Today salaries are not increasing 10% per year for most people.

So I actually think the interest rate hike increases the scarcity inflation eventually since energy production need low interest loans to build new sources.

The only sure thing about the hike is that ZERO new companies will be created, for good and for bad.

Probably RGB signals over SCART?

All I know is France imported Japaneese consoles because all their TVs had SCART in 1989, while Sweden got SCART a little later and never imported anything.

Do you know when Sega started using it? I traded my Megadrive for an old Atari 800XL with a diskdrive and Basic book! :D

Honestly the Atari was way better because it had a keyboard and you could program it!

So my whole retro hardware history (with trades):

  1986 C64C -> 1987 SMS -> 1993 Gameboy
  1989 Megadrive -> 1992 Atari 800XL

  1995 Mac Classic!?
  1997 Sun Solaris (at uni.)

  2017 C64 (with RR-Net and Nunchuck64)
  2022 Amiga 1200

Looking back the sadest part is how most kids never got to learn assembly on their devices back then, even if we wanted to the barrier was too high without cartridges, internet and interested parents!

I coded basic on both my C64C and Atari 800XL but I always knew it was too slow.

Reading this collection of console breakdowns I saw SMS had region locking so I looked up the Megadrive. When I was a kid I had a Japaneese Megadrive in Europe. I had this Japan exclusive space shooter game bough in France because they shared secam with Japan and I borrowed it out to a store in exchange for one other cartridge of my choice in return = I could play any and all games for as long as the japaneese game was in demand from kids in my hometown.

So that cart could be pushed into a european Megadrive (but not the other way around as easily the corners where half circle vs. quarter circle and the Japaneese Megadrive had a plastic latch that I removed to be able to use European carts without friction) but the version checking is something I never saw in those years. All games worked on all machines.

The "best" thing to come out of CERN is HTTP.

I think breakthroughs are often perpendicular to the energy, so the best investment in understanding the universe is probably to explore it.

Unfortunately that also requires alot of energy.

Rate of change is going to slow down with the price of energy going up.

I helped make Meadow, a non toxic MMO where you basically run around as different animals.

It has maybe around 10 players during the evening in Europe now so it pretty empty (designed for worlds of 50 players max) but it's very calm and wholesome.

You only communicate with emoticons and the story is none unless you count role playing as story.

I made this node/tree editor 20 years ago: http://move.rupy.se/file/logic.html

It has been used for database schemas, game story creation, cutting up sprites among other things...

Lately I made my own node database so I don't need this tool any longer, but I'm sure it will prove useful eventually again!

OpenGL can't be deprecated, just like IPv4 or HTTP.

That combined with the fact that VAO that came in version 3 is the last feature makes all threats to force you to update weak at best.

As hardware peaks you can stop worrying about new things and write software that never goes bad.

The wheel has not been rediscovered for a long time. Focus on the vehicle instead = bike.

Ah, yes I remember this post, but it reads pretty cryptic to me. I would like to know what the slowdowns actually become in practice, does it add latency to the execution of other threads and how will the machine as a whole behave?

I know M4 had much better multicore shared memory perf. than M3, but now both of those are old and I don't have users to test anything now.
