From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

A lot of people here seemed excited for these chips. It'll be very interesting to see the gaming performance as this could bring in an entire new segment of portable devices running Linux if powerful enough to deliver solid battery life and CPU performance.

Are there Benchmarks for the CPU yet? Still can't tell if the claims they made are for real or are just marketing bs.

There are quite a few YouTubers with press units making benchmark comparisons to M2 and M3 Macs. Overall, it stands up pretty well.

Can you give me some links please?

Are you aware that YouTube has a search function?

[–] SuperSpruce@lemmy.zip 1 points 5 months ago

A couple years ago YouTube decided to F up their search. It used to be mostly things you are searching for, now it's:

20% thing you searched for,

20% Shorts,

10% people also watched,

10% related [extremely tangentially]

10% For You

and 30% ads.

I don't blame anyone for wanting someone to suggest a link after YT's search became hot garbage.

Oh no never heard of that is that a new feature? How dose it work?

They haven't widely released the chip yet, but they made a lot of public claims during trade shows, which I'm sure you can find.

[–] MachineFab812@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 5 months ago

Yeah, that would be the marketting bs, probably.
