Sure, being Russian I know a thing or two about that 😅
I agree. But calling it communism did look a bit like, you know, calling everything right wing nazi.
I think the joke's still okay — living in a commune to get away from communists is kinda funny.
@thor

@diresock
Fair! Hardly a communist thing though. Serfs and slaves weren't owning anything, yet no one calls that communism.
@thor

@diresock
What makes this "globohomo" communist though? 🤔
@thor

@thor Oh, BTW about the spinning fans. I remember you said you used wired connection, but here is what I was talking about. b43 is the wireless network adapter driver in my late 2011 MBP as you can see, it consumes 12% of one of the cores — it's not much, but this is only copying files from a computer plugged into router with 100MBpS connection, I think it can get higher during streaming — not too much, but if your CPU is already overtaxed, it might make a difference.

@thor It is! I make mine wear clothes — they are warmer this way and bug me less 😸

@neural_meduza А если что-то опровергают, значит это так и есть 🫢

@thor I have to post an obligatory OnlyFans joke, but I just can't come up with anything even remotely funny 😅

@KayEllen Actually I think they've presented this concept right after Razer showcased their own concept with three screens (which already looked a bit clunky).
So more of the same thing is exactly what they were aiming for 😂
@kzimmermann

@kzimmermann The news article about this laptop on some tech site (The Register?) had a very accurate phrase: it has seven times more screens than average laptop 🤣

@RL_Dane I don't dislike hamburger menus, both my Thunderbird and Firefox UIs are heavily modified by user stylesheets, but there is one thing that I use somewhat frequently in Firefox that you can't access in any other way but the menus — offline mode. Which is very useful when switching proxies. Because once one of the FF networking thread dies when you shut the proxy down there is no way to bring it back to life, you can only restart Firefox 🤪

> macOS doesn't have real resolution independence
Apple were going to implement it in 10.5! But the idea got buried under a pile of useless junk and looks like they gave up on it completely in the end😩
@stwhite

@kzimmermann I think they used to have an even more versatile model 🤣
No, just kidding, I'm not even sure if this thing was mass-produced.

@nicemicro I have more pleasant memories about these 😅
K6-2 was the CPU that made me learn that compiler optimizations make a difference. On K6-2 for example "mov AX, 0" was faster than "xor AX, AX" — that is what most used to zero out the register, so just rebuilding with -march=k6-2 was giving you sizeable performance gains. In QuakeForge on heavy scenes it was 22 FPS vs 17 FPS — nothing to sneer at! In integer maths the improvement was 20-25% on average, then there was 3D Now!
@Nishi

@Nishi Here are the ones I have!
I also have an extremely rare K6-3+ 500 MHz somewhere, but I can't find it now. And everyone's favourite of the time — Celeron 300 MHz, which could be easily overclocked to 500 MHz.

@neural_meduza И никто не заметил разницы! 🤪

@ActionRetro Did they ship these machines with this display or does it just match perfectly? 🤔
