While Windows 10's CPU and Ram requirements are similar... the load it places on your hard disk are much higher. I've yet to see a low end windows 10 machine that was a late model upper mid range laptop or desktop not churn it's hard disk practically continually.
Windows 7 on the other hand has very light intermittent disk activity...
Stop listening to mumbojumbo... yes the day night cycle effects people but that is about it. Simulating the day night cycle is simple, simulating gravity is doable at least with certain limitations, the biggest problem isn't any of that but is the radiation. If they can figure out how to deflect alot of it with an electromagnet etc.. that would go a very long way to making a real space station and interplanetary travel a real thing. I think the state of the art on radiation delfection is still to ionize a cloud of xenon or other gas around the ship.... I'm still not clear on how they drag it along when the ship moves though perhaps it is only deployed when coasting?
Seriously, the main thing that effects humans is the day night cycle or circadian rhythm (which basically just means you need to turn the lights on and off in 12 hour intervals and probably reduce blue light toward night time) and to a much much smaller degree the moon has some effect. Even then these effects are not that big you could leave people to their own devices with lighting for 3 months and it probably wouldn't be an issue.
The main problem is to build a station rigid enough to handle the rotation and stresses it has to be fairly heavy assuming you want to be able to move from the center of the station to the ourter areas instead of just having 2 pods or something like that..... getting heavy things into orbit isn't cheap yet.
The cost of getting that weight into space is dropping like a rock current though heh...
Another thing I haven't seen mentioned is that one effect that would be quite noticable is the pull would be stronger on your feet than your head kind of like tidal forces..... since your head when standing would be closer to the hub. Personally I think the hub would be the most useful if it were just used as sleeping quarters that way you can lie down with minimal tidal forces and spend at least a 3rd of your day in gravity so you're degradation in heath is slowed at least. Just implementing compact sleeping quarters is probably alot cheaper than designing the entire station to be centrifuged.
Ownership of a bump stock does not make you a mass murder or terrorist. Just like owning a machine gun would not make you a mass murder or terrorist. Things do not define who we are... on the other hand choosing to impinge on the innate rights of your fellow citizens because you have been duped into being a lamb of the slaughter does make you a traitor to our nation by the people and for the people.
Even in the roaring twenties when mobsters ran amok it wasn't the guns that made them so dangerous it was the inability of police to respond fast enough and catch them... gunning people down and expecting to live hasn't been a valid criminal pursuit for probably 5-60+ years. So, you're trying "solve" a non existent problem. The real problem we have is lack of respect for life its very fundamental and if it were taught and instilled in our children to the same degree that "safe sex is" we probably wouldn't even need sex education classes because they would know the gravity of creating a new life and the responsibility that would be required of them.
Be very careful of changing the balance of power, because it can end disastrously. Are you really willing to trade a gun security theatre (take the ineffectiveness of the TSA as an example) for your right to protect yourself and your property!!???
They are doing a refresh of Zen in early 2018 on 12nm....should require only minimal changes firmware wise zen 2 is more of a late 2018-2019 architectural update even then probalby the same socket so not that many changes. The thing with Zen is it was a whole new platform.
It isn't a "whole new level" of anything... massacres have happened since FOREVER literally. There is no time in history where they did not.
On the contrary relative to current population levels we have extremely low levels of violence.
Just be glad that due to our current right to own firearms we don't really have to worry about organized violence coming from our government. Like Brazilian death squads that go into slums and shoot kids that *might* turn out bad. Or the Nazi's or communists in China or what have you. If you are indeed an American you have it REALLY GOOD a large part of that is owned to citizen gun ownership.
"So, to get a full auto weapon, the supply is limited to what was manufactured prior to this date"
Its more like to get a LEGAL full auto weapon... illegally is another story and there is basically nothing that can be done to stop people from illegally proliferating full auto weapons as they are pretty low tech to begin with.... even a shoestring can be used as a delay mechanism to make some semi-autos into a full auto (and for a short while a shoestring was classified as a full auto machine gun as retarded as that is).
The real solution is to stop being afraid of guns, be ready if your time comes... because it's coming someday guns or no, and America wouldn't be what it is without guns, we would have been overthrown by the Communist Japanese 80 years ago... and we probably wouldn't exist and the world certainly wouldn't be as free as it is. The solution is if you are friend of the family of someone that was killed, or injured see if there is anything you can do for them just be a good person and quite trying to change the world into something idealistic... every time someone tries that millions die or end up as essentially slaves to their government, because you can't be idealistic as long as humans are humans, you must have a system of checks and balances and guns in the hands of citizens are one of them.
I'm using the WebExtension version of NoScript and uBlock right now.. they seem to work just as intended. h264ify seems to already be a web extension as well..
Honestly those are the two I care most about. Another one that was nice to have was Toggle Proxy I need a simple replacement for it that acutally works (there is one but it isn't one click and also forgets the proxy port all the time but that will get fixed sooner or later).
It seems like web extensions may enable more fine grained permissions for each addon at some point as well... that would be cool.
XXVI = 26 Half of which is notably 13, which is just a little evil. 26 then presumably represents double evil or nearly complete evil. So we arrive at 2*X + 6 = 26 Dividing by two X + 6 = 13 So Something + 6 is Evil And twice something + 6 is double evil... From there we can extrapolate that 3 of something is complete evil Going back to XXVI=26 , we see on the right are 2 XX and VI which is 6 and on the left 2 and 6, so we swap and reevaluate with X = 6 and 2 = X 66VI=XX6 666=666 Thus google is complete EVIL.
I have a 55in Sceptre 4k TV I got for $430 about 2 years ago shipped to my local walmart.. it has like 4 HDMI 2.0 ports... at least 1 more than other TVs probably as it isn't abusing an input for smart functionality.
I do have motion compensation and whatever else they do I play PS4 games on it so the response time isn't horrible with that off.... and it's cheap. Thier 39in is about 225 and 55in is 309 (same model I have). they even have a 75in for $120 now which is just crazy.
Solidworks AutoCad Xilinx ISE and Quartus,Mentor Graphics's stuff etc.... Simics Visual Studio KiCAD is good enough at the moment so no real needs there. eASIC's design suite (they want like 15k or something insane for it) WinAMP A decent drawing program ala Corel something something... (I have an artistic sister) I don't need office... I just need people to stop using proprietary formats.
Presumably he was transcoding single threaded since the TDP of that celery processor is 15W,..... the Ryzen system could have transcoded 5 more videos with probably very minor increases in wattage if you didn't let it boost, potentially as many as 11 more videos. If you were batch transcoding like most people do... the Ryzen would stomp that 15w intel any way you slice it.
As far as I know a 32bit out of order Sparc core doesn't exist unless you consider that 64bit sparcs do execute 32bit code.
The SS20 also has an SX SMID engine... used mainly as it's built in graphics processor basically the CPU shoves instructions for it on a hardware queue and it runs them independently. It's good enough to allow a 50Mhz SuperSparc run KDE 3.x for instance which honestly is fairly impressive.
Bear in mind that RISC never was intended to mean minimal instructions set... merely minimized / optimized or in other words reduced.
RISC fails because it's encoding is not dense enough, CISC fails because it can't decode it's dense instruction format fast enough. The optimal instruction set is a little of both.
Microcode isn't what you think it is. Microcode is essentially a big look up table for decisions in how the processor interprets an instruction...
It isn't a firmware in the sense of an operating system it is essentially instruction scheduling and other related things. It makes it easier to resolve large classes of minor bugs that would otherwise be showstoppers without microcode.
Microcode can in a sense add instructions to the CPU... as that is where they are defined. But the hardware to execute said instructions must already exist for the microcode to use it. Back in the 70's and 80's a microcode would have been a big grid of diodes... essentially a rom that you could modify by hand if you needed to fix bugs in the CPU instead of using hardwired logic you could modify this rom to accomplish changes to the CPU execution.
Micro code isn't "what runs on the CPU".... it is the very logic of the CPU period the rest is computational hardware. It is what runs the CPU... and having it be re programmable to some degree is the only way any computer engineer will remain sane.
The reason bugs like FDIV couldn't be fixed with microcode update is it was a problem with the computational hardware not the logical microcode.

Thinkpad 25 /w AMD Ryzen 2700U
An ATI Radeon 7500 or 9000 should work just fine.
You just need to avoid 3d heavy desktop environments like Unity. I'd suggest XFCE, Mate or LXDE instead.
Hey I made a valiant effort :D ... I should have just integrated it and factored out 666 as a constant :P
XXVI = 26
Half of which is notably 13, which is just a little evil.
26 then presumably represents double evil or nearly complete evil.
So we arrive at 2*X + 6 = 26
Dividing by two X + 6 = 13
So Something + 6 is Evil
And twice something + 6 is double evil...
From there we can extrapolate that 3 of something is complete evil
Going back to XXVI=26 , we see on the right are 2 XX and VI which is 6 and on the left 2 and 6, so we swap and reevaluate with X = 6 and 2 = X
66VI=XX6
666=666
Thus google is complete EVIL.

Yes and no.... got sued for those reasons, but the didn't lose because the parts they were using were basically headers which are a grey area.
