awesome algorithm, curved features seem to be perfectly reproduced by each ASCII character density and geometry.

I remember looking at MSDOS binaries with hex editors and seeing "MS Runtime Library", like many tools were written in C -- may be my memory is completely failing ... but probably …

I just use FanControl , and I'm very happy with it. Windows only, unfortunately.

Here is another comparison. 9980XE multithreaded performance seems to be better. https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i9-9980XE-v...

Nice!

I will see if stability improved. At least in Win32, I got pissed off so many times with crashes and hangs.
