It supports up to six 5k displays...over its four ports.

I think that it's the other way around: They need 90 fps to prevent motion sickness. If they can't power through that threshold, no amount of eye candy will make consumers stop looking at VR headsets as 5-minute demo gimmicks.

2016 GPUs will have plenty of power for VR with the jump to 16nm FinFET processes and HBM. It's going to be a fun year.

Hey, he ported almost 750 lines of xv6 to Rust.

The fact that cheap Mediatek SoCs already support the format means that widespread HEVC support will only take a few years. The BCM2835 on a Raspberry Pi is ridiculously slow by today's standards, yet its AVC support makes it a decent media center. (for less than 5W, anyway) Piggybacking on HEVC adoption is quite clever since hardware manufacturers don't care about still images, but there's no way to implement efficient HEVC support on mobile SoCs without dedicated hardware.

Royalty? It's SATA Express. http://www.sata-io.org/technology/sataexpress.asp

That core count is a bit deceptive. GPU makers count an N-wide vector unit as N cores. An i7 3770K has 4 cores that have a 256-bit (8 single precision operands) AVX vector unit each. A GTX Titan has 14 multiprocessors/cores that have 6 32-wide single precision vector units each. Then there's the mess of counting FMAs as two instructions, the 3770k letting you execute one addition and one multiplication per cycle...just look at the FP32 and FP64 GFLOPS instead of counting cores.

I guess 3D is a 0-day DLC of sorts too.

It even has the shield domes.

In the long game, all you really have is a big and extremely expensive military force. Innovation is mostly done by corporations that don't give a crap about anything but profits, and the fact that you can't stop China from copying absolutely everything shows how useless your IP bullying will be in the end.

Is the switch to 48fps that much cheaper than a switch to 60fps? Most consumer displays do multiples of 60Hz nowadays, and we would be free of jitter, telecine and all that crap.

Ok, let's assume for a moment that this has nothing to do with racism at all, and all gypsies can be proven to be criminals. It doesn't take much thinking to realize that deporting criminals isn't a state policy that can catch on because you're left with either penal countries or nowhere to dump the criminals.

I guess your Free World doesn't have any gypsies in it.

They tested two desktop kernels against XP x64 and its Server 2003 kernel...doh!
