Unpatchable Bug in Apple M1, M2 and M3 silicon
GOTSpectrum replied to bizzehdee's topic in Tech News
Basically every major modern chip has some form of zero day bugs, Ryzen, core et al All the tricks we like to do to keep pushing performance has a cost -
To me it looks like an early satellite TV receiver... Yknow the kind that used to be hooked up to 2-3 metre dishes
-
Okay this little thing is rather cool I can't lie

Their APU platform

Remember the FM2+ platform?
-
AHH AM2... I just knew it wasn't AM4 or AM5 as I have handled both of those recently... It's been a long time since I even handled AM3+ tbh.

Is that an AM3/+ CPU?

Thinking about buying a PSVR2 now it has PC support

Basically this, between cable length and connectors adding resistance the signal can degrade rather quickly

I mean they do, but you can't create a custom dataset, so we use a script to parse the master file, which is a CSV of every single user, that contains username, team, work unit count and total points. Then with some Google docs math we work out daily activity
-
I mean... The way we handle data is still largely manual so it would require someone pulling the data every hour to track it that way, I don't have the time or inclination to automate it because the amount of time that would be required to learn the skills far outweigh the time it takes to just manually process the data once a day. With that said, if anyone wants to help out with automating the process, my inbox is always open
-
It's a balancing act of making sure people are actually trying to compete but also including as many people as possible. But I think a 10-generation-old CPU is a little too lenient when you consider the advances in performance in that decade+
-
Yeah, generally the min requirements could be met by a quadcore from 4th gen intel or better folding 24/7. Although it is likely I will increase them this year for the first time in 3 or 4 years
-
Seeing as the prizes we offer are always a random raffle of all people who meet the very-low participation requirements, you could be in first or 1000th and have just as much a chance of winning a prize
-
No I agree, you need to relax, it's a yearly thing on the forum, we get used to it. I'm sure there are any number of plug ins that would let you force your own font if you care that much

Important update regarding the folding team..
Over the last 6 years I've hosted many events and given away probably approaching 100k in prizes. And it's been an incredible ride, seeing you all push ever harder, produce ever increasing point totals has been the highlight of my life. But unfortunately it's time for me to step down.
They always say you should leave on a high and I think the time is right to retire and move onto running a different team. It's been incredible all and I am really humbled by all of your guy's support over the years.
Happy folding,
Spec
SpoilerHappy April fools, see you in a couple months for the summer sprint

I think you all do a bang-up job. The best in the business.
**I'll take my payment offline. Thank you.**

i was almost mad at the mutiny for leaving the team to go fold for another, but alas. 't is the day.

Yeah another member on here actually sent it to me YEARS ago.
