Man, people are still trying to hawk Lightning because they crippled bitcoin with the 1MB blocksize cap?
By controlling and interrogating the quantum spin state of this crystal defect, researchers have been able to demonstrate field detectivity down to nT/Hz1/2 on length scales of a few tens of nanometers.
So only have to improve it by 14 orders of magnitude.
So well after Russia invaded Ukraine.
I don't know why I should care about limited compatibility for a subset of devices with another subset of devices. There's some of everything in my home. I found a tool called LocalSend years ago that allows me to do mildly obnoxious data transfers between arbitrary devices regardless of platform.
That's the point, they want to rent you access to a computer too

But banning digital tags wont change that.
What if they go slap a new paper tag on the shelf while you're doing that?
If you start messing with the accessibility options for text size on MacOS, you quickly wind up with a blurry mess. This is particularly obnoxious if you're looking at a very high resolution display and very noticeable on the menu bar. It's a wonderful example of Apple's one size fits some design priorities.
MacOS is a third-rate *nix that can run MS Office, but so is ChromeOS. Should I be excited that I suddenly have the option to run Photoshop on a $600 device with as much RAM as the phone I had in 2018, but still can't control the size of system fonts on the desktop? Or is it just a more expensive way to run a browser and an SSH to something I'd rather be using?
I'll give you a hint: It's the second one.
If they're being thorough, Snapdragon, Mediatek and Ampere (server) SoCs are also being sold in traditional PC forms.
I might be interested if this thing could run Linux and had Thinkpad-grade input devices, but as it is, it's just a web terminal that's locked to Apple's ecosystem instead of Google's. That's just not very compelling.
What big European player wants to put $6B on the table though? SAP is the biggest European software company I can name and that doesn't seem like a strategic fit to me.
Everything new enough to use DDR5 has the DRAM controller embedded in the CPU, so we'd be talking about something more than just new motherboards.
I spent about 3 weeks trying to get 4x64GB DDR5 6400 working on an AM5 workstation. I never got it to run for more than about six hours at anything faster than 4200MHz, no matter how much I fiddled with timings and voltages.
Hilariously, that spare 128GB RAM kit is worth like $2000 right now.
Consumer DDR5 platforms have a hard time using more than a pair of DDR5 modules at any but the slowest timing and currently don't support DIMMs larger than 64GB. Workstation and Server Platforms can already support more RAM than that, but if you're buying a new enough Threadripper, Epyc, Xeon or Ampere platform to handle DDR5, you're almost certainly buying it with rDIMMs in the first place.
Check back in five or six years. I'm kind of serious. I just pulled my oldest 7.6TB u.2s at the end of a three year service term, drives I thought were unimaginably huge when I deployed them. When I checked them, I found that they had around 70% estimated wear life remaining, which seems pretty good for drives that were in use constantly for so long. The replacement drives were 15TB each, and I expect that in another three years, I'll be ready to fork over for the 30TB ones.
I'm thinking this is pretty typical for drive deployment life cycles.
