Even Smaller than CAMM2, and slighly higher performance. And replaceable/upgradeable!
What's not to like? SOCAMM 2 is a Datacenter technology that would favourably impact us on the personal computer world. So, bring it on!
Crypto? AI? AWS and AZURE falling over their own shoelaces?
I suspect you actually do derive a lot of utility from AWS and Azure, you just don't realize how many of the services you use every day are running on them.
As an OpenStack technical trainer, I do not oppose the cloud per-se. but AWS and MS are "moar" interested in investing untold sums of money, effort, and grid energy to train AI models, than to bulleproof their instances...
I also oppose moronic companies that put all their cloud eggs in one basket...
I derive a lot of utility from the helium used for MRI machines. As a guy who likes to eat potato chips, I derive much utility from nitrogen gas. As a scuba diver I derive much utility from Pure oxigen for my 32% and 50% stages. As a guy who had two ventral laparoscopic surgeries, I derive utility from pure CO2.

YMMV
If you can not do inference (not training, inference) on the device (for any definition of device) or can not wait for the data to arrive to a Hyperscaler Data Center, doing said inference on the shelter at the bottom of a mast, or failing that, the DataCenter where the regional 6G core is incarnated is a perfectly cromulent position to perform said inference.
Since 4G, and even before, we had ML on Telecommunication Networks. I can distinctly name 4 and 5G SON (Self Optimizing Networks), some preemtive alarm detection and correction in the Nokia NMS Subsystem, and when I was teaching CEMoD 16, we also had many of those. Changing the name of all that to AI, and stoping doing it in a system agnostic way with OpenCL and SYCL, and start doing it in a propiertary way with CUDA/nVIDIA only is a great way to attract 1 Milliard of fresh money, so congrats.
Also, I guess that possing as an american company when the company is ~75% European is great for the press releases.
As for nVIDIA, we all know that AI is a bubble, the questios are will it burst? will it deflate? when will that happen? nVIDIA is using their inflated share price to buy something that will not deflate or pop, just boring organic growth, driven by 6G (the digital G that will last 2 decades, instead of all the other Gs, that lasted 1). Good for them to diversify with cheap/inflated money. I'd have done the same.
Their rivals must be thinking why didn't I think of this first? and rightly so. Is an easy way to achieve a solid win-win for BOTH companies.
What growth can AOL expect? In another two decades most of their current customers will be dead and no one is going to replace them.
AOL transitioned from mostly ISP with some media to mostly media.
tons of old anime and other low res media is on youtube. up until now "something" was doing the scaling to 720p, 900p or 1440p(my current monitor). And this will be easier to use than the ringlamore I had to do until now with LossLessScaling (which I love).
So, great, thanks
bendingspoons has not the best track record for acquired personnel retention and acquired company growth
Fantastically good idea. In the USA it would save tens of thousands of lives. Antivaxxers would disappear in nothingness.
Mod parent up.
Not only in the USoA. Worldwide too. I can vouch for this being good in Venezuela (my country) Spain (lived and did my Master's there), and Colombia (lived and worked there)
The modern WINE / Proton experience on Linux is not at all comparable to a badly done Mac port.
Are you insinuating that the portal port done by valve themselves to mac, and which became the basis of their port of portal to linux was a bad port?
But yes, it's amazing how much the games do work under win(when you remove distro wine/mesa/etc and install latest stables) or proton. When steam stops supporting win10 like they F* overed win7, then my kids PC's will have mint xfce or possible popos or Manjaro Linux. Will let the kids pic I suppose.
Valve depends in great measure on google, as steam is an electron app, and therefore, dependant on chromium. Ditto for Epic store
And the piles of shit that require kernel anti-cheat software don't. Win-win situation!
one person's trash is another person's treasure.
I do not play games that require anti-cheat, you do not play games that require anticheat...
but plenty of peple do play those games, and they will not stop doing so just for the priviledge of running linux as their os. the os is there to enable you to do what you want to do, and not interfere.
Mac has frameworks/API calls that allow anticheats to work without residing on the kernel. windows is moving in that direction too.
for the sake of linux gaming, hope that Linux moves in that direction too, maybe taking inspiration from the mac framework, since mac is more unix like (BSD-ish one may say) than windows .
I remember, when I played portal prelude on mac, some of the puzzles could not be solved. the gravity and friction were a wee bit high, or the speed and jump were a wee bit low, and some puzzles went the wrong way of the fence.
and this all was with an official port.
the fact that the game launches and plays (tweaking or not) in a translation environment (because wine is not an emulator) does not means that it plays correctly/100% faithfully.
having said that, i am glad wine/proton/linux gaming is improving. come 2028, when i ditch my intel mac, I may go to linux (instead of windows) for my gaming needs. so, keep it up y'all!!!
big telcos worldwide (vodafone, orange, telefonica, destuche telekom) offer opestack clouds. ditto for other cloud actors (4th place biggest cloud onwards)
so signal could be running in 3 or four DIFFERENT openstack clouds so, if one fails, the others pick up
is just lazziness and herd mentality...
If the consultancy messes up, they are to blame.
Mind you, they will try to deflect the blame, but even them they will have to share it.
That has a price, you know?
otherwise, 2K is more than enough for livinroom usage.
HDR was to be the next step up. HDR and 2K would have made a killer combo.... but, if 1080p or 2K HDR TVs would have been available at the time, no on in their right mind would have bought a 4K tv (except people trying to compensate for something)
for computers in general, 4K has value. and for media (photo/video) creation/editing your camera and monitor has to have more resolution than your target. so, if your target is 4k it behooves you to have 5K or more cameras and monitors.
