#ytoff continues to have been a good #investment in saving #ram and #cpu #resources https://coffeespace.org.uk/projects/ytof.. There are still some #bugs to be addressed for sure, but it is getting pretty close for #primetime on the #coffeespace #server . I would still like to #reduce the #ram usage down from 50-60MB, which seems somewhat #excessive ... I should look to #buffer #connections instead of loading them directly into RAM.
Interesting, if I were ever so inclined to use #zoom - I may want to #limit #linux #ram and #cpu #usage by their crappy written #client https://gist.github.com/abraithwaite/1d7..
Interesting #dicussion regarding #simultaneous #multithreading and #modern #cpu #architecture - specifically regarding #bugs such as #spectre and #meltdown https://utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blog.. Will definitely be worth considering this if designing my own #cloud #infrastructure in the future!

Awesome #explanation of how #epic a #cpu really is: https://blog.robertelder.org/how-to-make.. I really love the #hackernews #comment here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=291..

#intel might actually be back on the board now: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/11/.. The #biglittle #cpu #architecture is pretty interesting and pretty obvious too. Glad to see it's working out!

Would you look at that, #apple have #released a new #cpu for their #device line-up: https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2021/10/i.. Apparently most of the #innovation went into more #gpu and more #video #codecs ...
#pine just #released the #pinephone #pro https://www.pine64.org/pinephonepro/ 4GB of #ram and a #powerful #cpu - it's *very* nice. Unfortunately, still massively outside of my #budget ... The #latest #pine #update also gives information about the long-awaited #pinenote https://www.pine64.org/2021/10/15/octobe.. Unfortunately both #devices are about $400 and outside what I can currently afford.
I had one of these #hp #netbook #laptops - it was crap: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aA5EsBtN.. It #overheated , it was #underpowered , mine had about 2GB of #ram , the #cpu was killing itself doing *anything* , it was just crap. I remember I was using it to #compile #code for our #robots - and the #cpu in the #robots was better than the one I had! Madness.
Man the #apple #macbook is really crap: https://apple.stackexchange.com/a/363933 #charging it on the wrong side can cause #high #cpu usage and #overheating ...
