Rekall is a company that provides memory implants of vacations, where a client can take a memory trip to a certain planet and be whoever they desire.

  • Microsoft’s WebTV Is Being Revived By Fans

    Jump

  • This opened a market for TV-connected thin clients that could browse the web with a much lower entry fee, with the WebTV service being launched in 1996. Bought by Microsoft in 1997 and renamed MSN TV, it lasted until 2013

    It lasted until 2013?

  • Findroid v1.0.0 with a complete redesign is here

    Jump

  • Looking forward to checking it out, I mostly use the windows desktops client, but updates on all platforms are great!

  • Nvidia invests $5B on Intel bailout, gains $2.5B

    Jump

  • That's not going to happen. It will require significant global reform in criminal and anti-corruption programs to implement rehabilitation policies that truly change the incentives for modern organized crime participants (e.g. 20 years community service program as doing de-mining work or repair work in the Chernobyl power station).

  • Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 appears in Geekbench and PassMark benchmarks

    Jump

  • i7-3770 is x4 cores from 2012. The 9950X3D2 has x16 cores. So you would expect somewhere around x4 improvement by default (give or take). Then there is nearly 14 years of architecture improvements.

    If anything the differentials from passmark suggest that we've only had about 94% improvement in ST scores (if we assume your i7-3770 would have a 36,000 MT score if it had x16 cores).

    That honestly seems low. I was actually using a i7-4703MQ laptop CPU until early 2025 and even benchmarks style use cases (opening Firefox) felt much more than X2 times slower than my 5800X desktop CPU.

    And that's low touch use cases. Complex single thread dependent strategy games were a massive challenge being the early game (even older ones from 12-15 years ago).

  • The big development with 9950X3D2 is that both CCDs have the X3D cache, so you don't have to rely on the OS scheduler.

  • China puts drone rules into law as low-altitude economy takes off

    Jump

  • Yes, I guess that would make more sense.

    I would be much more interested in revenue divided by segment/use case.

  • China puts drone rules into law as low-altitude economy takes off

    Jump

  • The overhaul is also tied to the Chinese government’s drive to build the low‑altitude economy, covering commercial activities below 3,000 metres (9,840 feet), such as parcel deliveries and urban logistics.

    Estimates released last year by the CAAC suggested that this sector was already valued at over 500 billion yuan in 2023, with projections to exceed 2 trillion yuan (US$280 billion) by 2030, making drones and other low‑altitude platforms potential pillars of growth.

    500 B Yuan is $71 B USD. They have $71 B worth of annual spend on drone based logistics?

  • Garmin autopilot lands small plane without pilot's help

    Jump

  • Interesting, why wasn't this commercialized in a wider way?

    I thought that the landing/take-off phase was the difficult one to automate?

    Would these systems work in airport like Bhutan's Paro Airport ?

    Jump

  • This seems like a pretty big achievement, although I am not up to date in developments in this area.

  • [Answered] Does Lemmy need a fork or a rewrite due to its maintainers views?

    Jump

  • Ugh...

  • Samsung extends DDR4 RAM production, but high memory prices and shortage likely to continue

    Jump

  • I wish they would make some more 5800X3D CPU (or even a 5800X3D XT upgrade), I am not updating from my AM4 system for at 3 least 2 more years and the CPU is by far the biggest bottleneck (I do a lot of encoding as a hobby and I play games that are almost exclusively limited by the CPU).

    I will be very surprised if they re-release the 5800X3D.

  • AI bubble bursting? Salesforce execs admit trust issues after laying off 4,000 techies, now scaling back use of AI models

    Jump

  • Anyone has any professional experience with Agentforce?

    Is it really viable beyond basic L1 support? What is the high level cost like (I am assuming current costs are heavily subsidized?).

    Agentforce might be making $500 M in revenue, but some of the could de facto be packaged revenue that wouldn't happen in a competitive environment.

  • [Answered] Does Lemmy need a fork or a rewrite due to its maintainers views?

    Jump

  • I find generic phrases such as "tolerance is at the base of civil life" to be unconvincing, especially when parroted in such an aggressively self-aggrandizing manner. You might as well say something along the line of "An apple a day keeps the doctor way".

    You either don't have much life experience (and lack intellectual curiosity) or you're just grandstanding online.

  • It's great, a lot better than Lemmy.

    The main weakness IMO is that Voyager doesn't support most of the cool features of Piefed (core interaction works great though). I have yet to try Interstellar. The mobile WebUI is pretty good, albeit in need of some polish and optimisations.

  • [Answered] Does Lemmy need a fork or a rewrite due to its maintainers views?

    Jump

  • This is some of the most pretentious, ostentatious posturing I've read on this topic.

    You really think people can't see through this?

    You don't see the irony in doing the "sophomoric debate club" thing while calling those that disagree with you "Kids".

    "Dangerous trends", "base of intolerance" or the pompous drivel about "grow my ideas and enforce and dispute them" are almost comical in their tone.

    The world doesn't work that way. This is a motherfucking internet forum.

    Or is this a satire of American style polemics and I got played? 🤣

    If it's satire, then good job!

  • US punishes China’s chip ‘dominance’ [in mature nodes] with 0% tariffs [until mid 2027]

    Jump

  • Fixed. I don't usually like editing headlines, but it felt like bait in its original form (even though the article itself is solid).

  • [Answered] Does Lemmy need a fork or a rewrite due to its maintainers views?

    Jump

  • There is Piefed, it's compatible with Lemmy instances and has a whole load of useful feature for both users and moderators.

    Much quicker and responsive development (I've been able to get two small feature/improvement requests implemented within weeks of my initial issue post).

    One of the Lemmy developers is also an admin on the notorious Lemmygrad instance.

  • Hackers stole over $2.7B in crypto in 2025, data shows | TechCrunch

    Jump

  • Their methodology (a mere $700 K from individual wallets?) suggest the true number was much higher.

  • Do you need 14 USB ports on your Raspberry Pi 5? - CNX Software

  • At one point I was running a laptop with x4 USB connections (KB, Mouse, laptop cooler and an HDD), x1 HDMI and x1 ethernet and I though that was rather quaint.
