Wunderground. Whatever they've done to the site in the past few years is just terrible.

I still have an unopened bottle, it does not look very tasty anymore though.

so how many LE's do these cores consume compared to a similar RISC-V or any other CPU design? Are there advantages just beyond familiarity of ARM?

They did do this for SNES:

Obviously it was limited to games that did not use enhancement chips as you mention.

Nintendo did this extensively in Japan, first with the Disk Writer for the Famicom Disk System and then later with Nintendo Power kiosks for Super Famicom and Gameboy.

yet another MGRS

I'm not super familiar with HPE's product lines but I'm just kind of surprised they are still using the Apollo name.

Maybe we'll see some Silicon Graphics branded HP gear too?

DOOM shipped on the IRIX install CDs for many years.

please don't gut rare vintage hardware to install commodity x86 hardware.

Wouldn't you have needed to use a Japanese text encoding (JIS?) and a corresponding font to get the "tsu" (ツ) kana in pre-Unicode days?

some have the configuration memory on-die as well to keep part count down. Also good to help protect your bitstream, but this isn't infallible of course.

The CHM event on Friday is also sold out.

there's Mattermost for that, which is open-source to boot.

states' rights?

This reminds me a lot of the old "BAT" keyboard:

I guess we will all have to wear a full face of juggalo makeup to remain anonymous in public from now on.

Good to see some folks using my 'irixboot' utility in the wild. Looks like it worked!

Also, the whole process by which the Development CD image is extracted could have been easily handled by irixboot and you can use irixboot as a 'dist' install source within the already-installed OS.

I think rms famously used one of those. Lemote Yeelong with the Loongson CPU.

Crazy to think about the range of devices the architecture supported, from small battery-powered things to giant multi-rack SGI Onyx machines.

I'm still impressed with my dual-R12000 Octane today.

I miss the days of the Macintosh Human Interface Guidelines and when Apple actually more-or-less conformed to them.

I don't really use it to communicate with people I actually know anymore, but I'm a member on several Facebook hobby/interest related groups (of strangers) that I enjoy. Also some local neighborhood groups. I do occasionally peruse the Marketplace but haven't actually completed any transactions using it.

Sharepoint?

so? Sending to an exchange and then selling it for a discount - what exchange would say no?

This is what makes Docker for Windows useless to me.

can this do 2x 4K @90Hz? e.g. for VR headsets.

I see a lot of similarities in the kind of people that get pulled into Amway/Herbalife/etc and Bitcoin people.

using whose spectrum?

Probably possible in New York City and San Francisco (proper), but nowhere else.

Putting "X" and "Athena" together just makes me think of the Athena Widgets (Xaw) toolkit for X11.

I think this is roughly how Amazon's FireOS fork works.
