The #framework #laptop gets better by the year: https://youtube.com/watch?v=UeCdBVHYa_8 Imagine for a moment that #ibm didn't sell #thinkpad to #lenovo , but instead somebody like #framework . Today we might have the most amazing machines ever designed!
The most #beautiful #machine to never exist: https://nitter.1d4.us/pic/orig/media%2FF.. A #ibm #thinkpad #notebook in this #formfactor would have been simply the best thing ever. Imagine also having swappable #bays on it too... This is simply too sexy. I would load the base with #battery and put most the #brains in the top part with small #daughter #boards in the base to extend #io , maybe only down once side to maximize #battery space.
Interesting #interview #asshole #test by #ibm https://johnpublic.mataroa.blog/blog/the.. I imagine it works quite well.
#ibm #eagle has 127 #qubits for their #quantum #computing ! https://hackaday.com/2022/02/08/ibm-eagl.. Apparently they believe they have a path to over 1000 #qubits using a 3D #package ... #encryption better watch out!
As #predicted - #ibm #watson turns out to be a #nothingburger https://www.statnews.com/2022/01/21/ibm-.. Apparently it was insanely #expensive and didn't do what it was supposed to. It was never going to #replace the need for a #medical #doctor ...
Apparently #ibm and #samsung have a new #transistor - but it is so far unclear exactly how it works: https://newsroom.ibm.com/2021-12-14-IBM-.. A lot of #hype around it though... We'll see if it plays out. Half of the problem is not the #design but the #reliable #manufacturing #process !
Hah, #ibm is actually old enough as a #company that they made actual #cheese #cutters https://hackaday.com/2021/10/12/ibm-chee.. #samsung is somewhat similar in this regard.
Interesting, looks like #ibm 's approach to the #cache and #sharedmemory problem is just to do away with L3 and L4: https://www.anandtech.com/show/16924/did.. Will definitely be watching this space.
Never come across the #antix #linux #distribution before: https://cheapskatesguide.org/articles/an.. Could make for an interesting #distro to use for my old #ibm T22 #laptop ! The article recommends #dillo - but actually I found the #internet much more #browser friendly with something like #netsurf on older machines. At the very least it seems to support #css better.
Just a daily reminder that the #ibm T22 is an amazing laptop: https://ibm.fandom.com/wiki/T22 Still going after all these years. All I really want is an upgraded version of one of these.
Interesting, #ibm is now working on #quantumcomputing too: https://www.dw.com/en/ibm-unveils-first-..
#ibm is looking to #sue #globalfoundries - a #chip #manufacturer for failing to meeting targets: https://www.nextplatform.com/2021/06/10/.. I really suspect they will not be the first either, especially if IBM are successful.
