    I seriously considered this name for a triton related project. Well there’s helion (metas autotuning dsl) at least.

    This is not entirely accurate. Those devices will receive security updates for quite some time. By the time they stop getting them, they will easily be candidates for recycling by …

    The article specifically calls out policies of the current government as allowing this state of affairs. I just wonder if the people that are affected effectively voted for it.

    You make the best case for not using windows at all.

    ProtonMail is not bad. iCloud works fine with imap (ie mutt, thunderbird) and does custom domains too.

    I admire your work greatly then. I definitely appreciate uncovering this sort of telemetry, but I feel the reaction from some may be a little more Tin-foil-hatted for my taste. I d…

    Good luck getting even half of the public to agree on what government is authoritarian

    This is cool. Can I run the same fedora as the asahi Linux I have on my M2 Ultra and use the M2 to do builds and the DGX to launch kernels? That'd be the ideal fully arm at-home co…

    I’m not entirely sure what apple’s interest in any of this is. Would it get them any additional customers? What portion of their customers would be significantly more happy with ga…

    I’d really be surprised if they broke codeweavers’ stuff. Also who cares if the wine exe itself can run as x86? Ideally you want something that resembles windows chpe where the loa…

    I think you are right. I suspect any mac gaming share that gets bootstrapped will have to come the crossover/proton way. Thats probably good enough for starters.

    It isn't; they specifically have said it will be retained. They aren't too specific but I think what they mean is all the Framework and App support for it will be gone. But as far …

    If there's a macos port, it'll of course be better optimized. I play CS2 on mac from time to time. It runs really smoothly on my Studio, but if it were a native port I could run it…

    My source is I know how they handled Intel 32-bit support for Wine the last time they deprecated it. They went out of their way to keep codeweavers happy even though they let all t…

    I agree with you on wine, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they are doing this quietly (landing patches to make Wine better on Mac), but for the purposes of making directx shaders pe…

    They claim enough of Rosetta will continue to exist for games and things like wine to work. I suspect the main thing they want to kill off are all the x86 slices in the mach-o fat …

    The game porting toolkit allows windows DX shaders to get runtime translated to high performance metal shaders. It provides a path for Rosetta and Wine to handle what they are good…

    This is not the greatest question because it makes it seem that you think unified gpu+cpu socs are all like intel graphics.
