AMD Enabling New GFX12.1 & More RDNA 3.5 Hardware Blocks With Linux 6.20~7.0
AMD today sent out their latest pull request to DRM-Next of new AMDGPU/AMDKFD kernel driver changes they are looking to get into the next kernel cycle, which will either be known as Linux 6.20 or more than likely be called Linux 7.0. Notable with this week’s pull request is enabling a lot of new GPU hardware IP blocks, including GC/GFX 12.1 as a new addition past the current GFX12.0 / RDNA4… ⌘ Read more

How Did TVs Get So Cheap?
A 50-inch TV that would have set you back $1,100 at Best Buy during Black Friday 2001 now costs less than $200, and the price per area-pixel – a metric accounting for both screen size and resolution – has dropped by more than 90% over the past 25 years. The story behind this decline is largely one of liquid crystal display technology maturing from a niche product to a mass-manufactured commodity.

#ptpol #debate #presidenciais

O debate entre todos, os 11.

0 - pede-se logo respostas curtas e sem interrupções, isso não é sinal que o debate foi mal preparado?

1 - Venezuela:

LMM diz que Governo e Presidente estiveram bem. O importante é saber como vai ser o futuro da Venezuela.

GeM acha que não é só o futuro da Venezuela que está em jogo, não se pode admitir o que EUA, Rússia e China têm feito. Diz que Portugal não assinou o documento da Gronelândia, jornalista diz que sim, e GeM responde “exactamente” 🤷‍♂️

AV diz que a violação do direito internacional foi boa, que o assassinato do Bin Laden também foi uma violação e foi bom. E a Gronelândia? Se Trump atacar, é defender e lutar.

Seguro relembra que o objectivo desta violação nem foi repor a democracia na Venezuela, e sobre a Gronelândia acha que é necessário não esperar e fazer uma reunião de líderes da NATO.

Cotrim aplaude o que foi feito, condena como foi feito. “Agrada-nos o resultado” (pena que não lhe perguntem se isso inclui os mortos no ataque). Sobre a Gronelândia é preciso prepararmo-nos para a guerra.

Discos em 2025:

Quando defini que ia comprar apenas 12 discos em 2025, achava que estava a ser muito exigente. Afinal, acabei por só comprar 7 (ainda que a minha wishlist tenha crescido). O “concerto do ano” para mim foi Marilyn Manson em Lisboa, e durante o ano ouvi 386 discos da minha coleção - o que também significa que ainda não a acabei de organizar. Dos discos lançados em 2025, há menções muito especiais para dois que incluem música feita por mim: idiossINcracias vol. I, que é um disco entre o meu projecto #kokori e Floating Ashes, e 25.12, que é uma compilação onde kokori também participou com uma faixa. Três discos que comprei são de Marilyn Manson, um oficial e dois bootlegs, e o oficial (o single “In The Air Tonight”) não foi o mais interessante dos três, mas sim o “I Want To Kill You Like They Do In The Movies”, disco duplo de lados B. O IdiossINcrasias vol. 2 tem uma excelente participação de Casa Ukrania, de quem também comprei um disco. 20 anos depois do lançamento do “Clear Hearts Grey Flowers” de Jack Off Jill, foi re-editado com um lado extra ao vivo, onde se pode ouvir-me a cantar os parabéns à Jessicka (com toda a audiência). Quanto ao streaming, parece que ouvi 689 artistas diferentes, 53% deles pela primeira vez. E tenho um novo tote bag!

RADV Driver Lands Another Big Improvement For Early AMD GCN Graphics Cards

Timur Kristóf of Valve’s Linux graphics team has been leading the effort to enhance the old graphics card support and on Friday night merged a big improvement for the RADV Vulkan driver in Mesa 26.0… ⌘ Read more

AV aproveita que o deixam falar para criticar também o AS por ser do PS que é quem foi causador do atraso desta nova lei (AS responde demarcando-se do PS). GM acha que “qualquer Português hoje quer comprar uma habitação minimamente decente tem de dispender perto de 1 milhão de euros”, e eu acho que assim é difícil levá-lo a sério.AV aproveita a crítica ao enriquecimento ilícito feita por GM para defender alterar a constituição - e em quatro jornalistas não há um que o confronte com o papel do PR.

Parece que saltaram um bloco de perguntas (porque as respostas estão a demorar mais do que estava previsto), e com isto CM não tem a oportunidade de ser a primeira a responder a nenhum tema.

1. recusou algum negócio ou reunião por conflito de interesses?: JP, AF, GM, CF - não; MM - negócios não, mas convites sim; AV - negócios não, mas no parlamento sim (relacionado com futebol), e está a ser investigado pelo MP; AS - sim, rejeitou um convite de uma empresa a ir ver a bola, já enquanto candidato; CM - já recusou reuniões com outros estados e embaixadas por motivos de posições sobre direitos humanos.
   

8/n

CF e AV são quem custa mais ouvir nesta ronda, porque em vez de falar da pergunta CF quiz primeiro atacar os outros candidatos, dizendo que eles três não têm hipóteses e que vão desistir nas próximas duas semanas, outros não conquistam nem o eleitorado do seu próprio partido, um não quer ser presidente… enfim, baixesa, e claro que AV aproveita logo para fazer alarido, alavanca isto e “exige” que “aqueles três” desistem ou não…

2.1) deve PR intervir junto da PGR em casos como o de Costa?: “depende”, respondem todos, com GM mais uma vez a tentar dizer uma coisa e o seu contrário, enlameando tudo para tentar não desagradar ninguém, e AV também diz que é sempre mas depois é só às vezes, troca-tintice para parecer que ele vai mais longe que os outros, quando defende o mesmo.

#ptpol #debate #presidenciais

O “debate da rádio” tem oito dos candidatos à presidência (adivinhem quem) e duas horas.

Legenda: AV = “André Ventura”, AF = “António Filipe”, CM = “Catarina Martins”, CF = “Cotrim Figueiredo”, AS = “António Seguro”, MM = “Marques Mendes”, GM = “Gouveia e Melo”, JP = “Jorge Pinto”

Pelos vistos o debate está dividido em blocos: o primeiro bloco é sobre poderes presidenciais (se calhar o único que devia haver?):

1. se OE chumba, dissolução de parlamento ou?: alguns acham que “depende do contexto”, mas no detalhe e em contextos específicos agiriam de maneira diferente (AV dissolveria no caso da geringonça, AF não dissolveria em caso de governos minoritários, CF acha que é nas maiorias que é preciso insistir…), outros (ou só CM?, GM é troca-tintas, diz que cada caso é um caso mas depois parece que todos os casos não levam à dissolução…) que dissolver o parlamento por causa de um chumbo de um OE é o instrumento errado, se o parlamento acha que não há condições então podem recorrer à Moção de Censura.

Steps to world domination:

1. “Invent” “AI” (by using other people’s data).
   
2. Get people hyped about it and ideally hooked on it.
   
3. Only provide it as a cloud service. But hey, if you want to, you can run it locally!
   
4. Buy all hardware available on the market, so that nobody but you can build more systems.
   
5. All PCs of consumers and competitors are too weak now and can’t be upgraded anymore.
   
6. Everybody depends on your cloud service! Win!
   

All of that is possible because corporations don’t have a “conscience” in capitalism. Nobody forces the RAM manufacturers to sell all their stuff to just one or two buyers, but since the only goal of that manufacturer is to make money, they do it.

2. markdown links using using [text](url)
   
3. markdown media links using ![alt](url)
   

And that’s it. No bold, italics, lists, quotes, headlines, etc.

Just like mentions, plain URLs, markdown links and markdown media URLs are highlighted and available in the URLs View. They’re also colored differently, similarly to code segments.

I assume you made the thing load quickly, didn’t you?

That’s the problem with Python. If you have a couple of files to import, it will take time.

I want this to be reasonably fast on my old Intel NUC from 2016 (Celeron N3050 @ 1.60GHz) and I already notice that the program startup takes about 95 ms (or 125 ms when there are no .pyc files yet). That’s still fine, but it shows that I’ll have to be careful and keep this thing very small …

Python 3.14 will bring lazy imports, maybe that can help in some cases.
