Nah, that's Java and JavaScript.

I'll take Python and Fortran, thank you very much

It feels like the dlc wasn't playtested at all, at least not on monsoon

My still new-ish phone is a pixel 4a I got used. My laptop is a 2012 model and my car from 2006.

The release cycles are insanely fast and have been for a while.

Still no LiDAR.

Sensors that the Tesla famously doesn't have (afaik, didn't check) because Elon is a dumbass.

Anyone remember the Nyan cat platformer game on mobile? I'd like to play it again.

I use Arch BTW.

I'm a heretic, but Vista > 7 and 8.1 > 10.

My modelling is CPU bound as it's a model made in Fortran by physicists (me included). The fact is that I wouldn't get a 4x boost, and a model running overnight still would. When I actually need performance I use a 1000 cores compute cluster for multiple days, so that would never run on any consumer CPU anyways.

For the data processing, the real bottle neck is disk access and my scripting speed, so the CPU doesn't really need to be amazing.

I have an other 2-3 years with my 1600.

Gaming, working (data processing, physical modelling).

The trick is to use a lower overhead OS than Windows.
