I think that change was done way back when. Do you have a reference for the algorithm change? I tried a quick search and came out empty.

It’s okay, all they have to do is get a bid from another Big Tech company that doesn’t have home stuff like Amazon. Failing that, there’s always private equity. 🥲

We’re perfectly optimistic about most technology. We can see how we can benefit from it, once most of the value it produces no longer ends in the owner class’es pocket.

Seems like a fix is on the way.

They’re pretty good. The affected models are 10-year-old now. Not that it means they should stop working, but just some context.

Really? I was able to comment a couple of minutes ago.

Any bets on how many Democrats will vote in favour?

Not quite but credit cards and Interac e-Transfer.

Most of them are.

It’s so much better than The Wild Robot!

An open source CPU, somewhat competitive with good ARM and x86 cores would be a groundbreaking achievement.

Amid the DeepSeek surge, smaller firms using AI may turn to RISC-V chips for cost savings. The report notes that even if a 10 million yuan RISC-V setup delivers 30% of NVIDIA or Huawei’s performance, purchasing three could still be more affordable.

Yup. If these guys come up with a half-decent CPUs they won’t have to pay the ARM, Intel or AMD premium, they can significantly decrease the cost of compute in a whole lot of sectors and use cases. And if they open source and / or sell those chips to everyone…

And I think it’s just a matter of time for them to develop those designs.

I’m also looking forward to working a couple of days a week, training and coaching young developers.

Alright so this is where the next great cores are likely to come from.

A for profit worker co-op is very different than a private for-profit. A for-profit worker co-op would be fine ik my book and in fact preferable than a non worker co-op nonprofit.

I think there’s a difference in definitions, as well as difference between non-profit/not-for-profit and charities. As far as I know what your described is a non-profit and a non-profit can sell services.

As far as I read LPCAMM in its current state does not work for this. The electrical noise is too high. These things aren’t the same. A repairable waterproof phone can be made without glue by making it a bit thicker. In the case of RAM today, we’re hitting fundamental physics limitations with speed of electricity and noise. At this point the physical interconnect itself becomes a problem. Gold contact points become antennas that induce noise into adjacent parts of the system. I’m not trying to excuse Framework here. I’m saying that the difficulty here borders on the impossible. If this RAM was soldered and it had bandwidth no different than SODIMM or LPCAMM modules then I’d say Framework fucked up making it soldered, majorly. As I said, there’s no point buying this if you don’t care about the fast RAM and use cases that need it like LLMs. Regular ITX board with regular AM5 is the way to go.

E: To be clear, if this bandwidth could be achieved with LPCAMM, then Framework fucked up.

You get fast memory as a result. If you don’t care about the fast memory, there’s no good reason to buy this, with their motherboard. There’s a use case this serves which can’t be served by traditional slotted memory and the alternative is to buy 4-5 NVIDIA 3090/4090/5090. If you want that use case, then this is a pretty good deal.

My AM5 system doesn’t post with 128GB of 5600 DDR5 at higher than 4400 at JEDEC timings and voltage. 2 DIMMs are fine. 4 DIMMs… rip. So I’d say the present of DIMMs is already a bit shaky. DIMMs are great for lots of cheap RAM. I paid a lot less than what I’d have to pay for the equivalent size of RAM in a Framework desktop.
