@halcy CPUs haven't been slow for a very long time and now they're crazy fast. you really have to go out of your way to get a dog shit CPU now
@halcy there's basically no good reason for this machine to be obsolete, except that infosec researchers are keeping the trash gyre alive with shit like this
bugs : cpu_meltdown spectre_v1 spectre_v2 spec_store_bypass l1tf mds swapgs itlb_multihit mmio_unknown

@aeva I have a CPU on the dashboard of my car like just as a fidget toy and it's like a 2ghz dual core. I considered selling it on ebay when I took the computer it was in apart but it literally would be more in postage to do so than the thing is worth, if someone even wants it
@halcy hehe I used to have a pair of ram sticks hanging from the rear mirror like a pair of fuzzy dice
-
@aeva Pretty sure in this era they applied the Pentium or Celeron branding to the low-cost parts, and the Core 2 Duo branding to the high-cost parts
@swiftcoder I just found a chart on wikipedia that confirms this: E7xxx and E8xxx would have been Core 2 Duo, higher would have been Xeon, and lower was pentium and celeron. so this would not have been sold as a core 2 duo
-
ah, it's an Intel Pentium E5800 "wolfdale" processor, so either I am mistaken about it being a Core 2 Duo or it is one and the branding is just confusing, but either way wikipedia dates this somewhere between 2008 and 2012. I would have purchased this either late 2011 or 2012 because I remember buying it to celebrate getting a job at Creative Commons

ok https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfdale_(microprocessor) has a handy little chart that explains intel's branding for this processor generation. the E5800 was sold as a "pentium" and not a "core 2 duo", so this is actually a *lower end* processor than I thought 😎
-
@aeva says here it's a Pentium https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfdale_(microprocessor)#Wolfdale-3M
@ruojake I just found that as well XD

I need to find a more dog shit computer to figure out where exactly the perf wall is. Maybe this means there's a riscv port in mollytime's future.

@aeva too great for a Celeron, too flawed to join the Cores 2 Duo, forever cursed

@aeva Currently the "dogshit wall" is #i486SX because #Linux dropped support for #i386 with Versions
3.4.99&3.6.9respectably, tho most people would say anything below #amd64 w/ #SSE2 (or #i686) is out of #mainstream support already, with #RHEL6 being EoL'd & #Debian being the last major distros offering #32bit support. -

@aeva
```
emerge -avt gentoo-sources
eselect kernel list
eselect kernel set <n>
genkernel all
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
```it's something like this, I think

@ki ah that fixed it, thanks!

i'm trying and failing to find a screenshot of the part of chrono trigger where Lucca says to Marle "Machines aren't capable of evil... humans make them that way", but it turns out there's a lot of fan art of that scene, which is nice.
anyways, computers aren't slow... it's programmers that make them that way

@aeva 8086? :3
@pupxel so, no, but I have been pondering on and off whether or not it might be worth it to try to port mollytime to dreamcast

@aeva Sometimes the lack of programmers make them slow.
As in: I don't have the time to optimise because I already have to do all the work in the first place

@pupxel probably not XD

@shinmera look as long as your not dumping everything inside react/electron you're probably on the good side of the curve

@nilocram @scuola @informapirata @lealternative @opensource @devol @Framasoft visto, mi sono registrato e ora devo capire come aggiungere una nuova lingua. Ho esplorato un po' ma per ora non ho capito come fare.

Negli ultimi tre anni ho cercato di trasmettere quanto profondamente l'intelligenza artificiale cambierà il mondo dei media. Questo post è un altro tentativo. Offre un quadro unificante per mettere in prospettiva il momento attuale e, si spera, aiutare le persone a uscire dalla situazione critica.

Ci sono stati momenti promettenti, ondate sparse di ottimismo e periodi in cui nuove tecnologie o finanziatori hanno sbloccato brevi ondate di crescita. Ma la realtà più profonda, soprattutto per le piccole e medie imprese, è sempre stata plasmata da fragilità, dipendenza e costante improvvisazione. La sostenibilità era più un'aspirazione che una norma, e molte delle organizzazioni che sono sopravvissute lo hanno fatto grazie a una combinazione di testardaggine orientata alla missione, finanziamenti creativi e frammentati e, a volte, una capacità di adattamento più rapida rispetto alle loro controparti più grandi e lente.

The Impact Lab: una collaborazione per dare priorità al giornalismo d'impatto
Se il giornalismo continua a inseguire i clic, continuerà a perdere il cambiamento. The Impact Lab, creato da Syli con Report for the World e climateXchange come partner fondatori, propone una stella polare diversa: i risultati nel mondo reale

@skariko ciao
Ho visto l'articolo di wisper+ sul sito . ho provato ad installarlo ( eh si su un pixel ) e salta fuori questo. Cioè si sapeva credo. Solo per conoscenza

@simonperry @umbeebmu su questo sono d'accordo, tant'è vero che da un po' di tempo ho smesso di seguire i canali che riportano le esternazioni di Durov.
Però sono discorsi opposti:
Da una parte i pericoli derivano dalla mancanza di libertà e dall'altra dal mancato controllo.
