@dumfuqqer @slimakBlazej @commodoreofcl Closed Firmware doesn't mean it is no longer useful or no longer a good product. Sure it is disappointing that they are closing it off but if the company can't survive then their products can't continue and then we are stuck with the status quo.

@slimakBlazej @commodoreofcl For their general hardware support I completely understand this move. They aren't a monster company with infinite resources, if someone mods the firmware and breaks things it can cause support to go down a rabbit hole. It's definitely a give and take decision.

Raising a child with someone from Philadelphia is so insidious, I caught my child watching a 14 minute YouTube video entitled “Best of Phanatic” and now my four year old says she won’t go to a baseball game unless “the green monster is there.” (We live in DC, I’m a nats fan).

Most programmers are taught that L1 is the “top level” cache on x86. It’s not quite true anymore! Intel calls it the Decoded Stream Buffer (DSB), AMD the OpCache. Only enough room for ~4,000 micro-ops, but there are interesting ways to take advantage of it.

We take randomness for granted. Early PRNGs were BAD. Thousands of scientific papers used to rely on RANDU, created by IBM in the 1960s. In 1D space, it looks ok! Map in 3D…you start to see the issues. Now, there *was* a better solution...but it would cost you.

Windows 10 extended support ends in eight months, and users are still not upgrading to Windows 11, at least in Germany. New data suggests that Germany is still heavily stuck on Windows 10, even though official support ended in mid-October 2025. It estimates that over 48% of desktop PCs and laptops in German private households, around 21 million devices, are still on Windows 10. Windows 11 is only slightly ahead at about 49.5% (around 21.5 million devices). Why do you think users are rejecting Windows 11?

@GamewithDave Man that is a throwback! I think mine was Destruction Derby? Really hard to remember exactly but that is at least one of my first memories for the PS1.

@thecahoonfamily @NoCatsNoLife_m Almost every cat we have had in our family were local strays. They just want to be fed and loved, they also understand the value of a stable environment and usually end up being some of the best pets you will ever have in my experience.

@NoCatsNoLife_m The only stray cat that we have ever seen around ended up moving into our house 6 yrs ago when my daughter invited him inside and he never wanted to leave. He’s living the good life now ♥️

This woman’s husband built a custom heated chiminea setup for a stray cat who spends her time in their yard. He added a heat lamp above and a soft bed inside, and now she’s spending her coziest winters there warm, safe, and completely loved. I wish more people treated outdoor animals with this kind of kindness. How do you keep outdoor pets warm on cold nights? Share your ideas 💡🧡 IG📹 : beautyandblingbydenise
