XDA Developers

... to his collection.

Uh, XDA Developers has a good writeup of the fact that Windows 11 26H2 has saved some users up to two gigabytes of RAM usage after installing.

Uh, lots of reports all over Reddit and elsewhere.

Uh, however, it doesn't save it for those who need it most.

So what does that look like in practice?

XDA ran a controlled test on the same machine, Ryzen 5 7600X, RTX 4070 Ti Super, 32 gigs of DDR5 running at 1440p.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 went from 45 to 64 frames per second with EXPO enabled.

That's 42%.

All I can say with any certainty is that the video game publishers' legal teams are going to be working overtime for the foreseeable future." End quote.

And quoting XDA Developers: It really was just a matter of time.

Activision has issued a DMCA takedown notice against several vibe coded classic Call of Duty web browser ports, including Black Ops and Black Ops II, according to the project's developer, Lucky Faraday.

In a Twitter post, Faraday says the publisher targeted him for, quote, "porting COD games to the browser," confirming that all the games are offline.

There was a time when Android Central and Android Police were the two sites that we...

And then XDA doesn't even really exist anymore, I don't think.

I think it does exist, but it's just not the same thing.

They've just changed so much because of incidents like this.

I don't know.

You know, it seems to me like after Pocketnow and XDA kind of joined forces, they were the publishers were really interested in XDA and then they just let Pocketnow wither and rot on the vine.

But at some point, just sell the name.

There's probably some dude out there with a couple thousand dollars that'll take Pocketnow off your hands and probably honor previous publishing commitments and stuff, but will just write silly blogs again.

Um, so I mean, it, it's, it really is, it really is a pretty cool, uh, a pretty cool development that, uh, this is now available right inside Windows.

Um, and, uh, the second link I've got is over at XDA Developers, and it's one of their developers that w- did WSL containers for a while, and his reason to leave them was that Compose wasn't there yet.

So, you know, uh, maybe, maybe it'll be time here in a few months to give it another shot.

Um, but yeah, Rob, Rob wasn't...

The ratio is just brutal, and the sources actually back this up with independent testing.

A writer at XDA Developers ran a standard multicolor benchmark and found the model consumed 40 grams of filament while the purge bin demanded 70 grams.

Wow.

Yeah, it is entirely dependent on the geometry of what you are making.

and it's making a major splash in both hobbyist and industrial circles.

Adam Conway from XDA Developers delivered a comprehensive breakdown of the chip's features, and honestly, it's got a bit of everything.

Dual 32-bit RISCV cores mean multitasking capability and processing muscle that developers have been asking for, and that's not all.

The 320 MHz operating frequency combined with Gigabit Ethernet MAC, USB 2.0, and SD-IO slots takes this chip beyond traditional IoT expectations.
