@techconnectify.bsky.social what do you think about magnetocaloric and elastocaloric cooling?

@instlatx64.bsky.social Are the CPUID for IceLake 6330 and 6336Y correct?

@mcy.gay The reason Microsoft has x86-64 ABI for ARM64 is to allow loading x86 DLLs in ARM code. This is something Rosetta (including the old PowerPC to x86, not just the current x86 to ARM) never supported but Microsoft needs for things like Microsoft Office

@mara.bsky.social I am a bit confused on SeqCst fences. In the Atomics book, it say "... a sequentially consistent operation cannot be split into a relaxed operation and a memory fence." However, tokio-loom which doesn't support seqcst atomics does support seqcst fence

2025 is basically the death of 32-bit x86. Windows 11 dropped 32-bit edition in 2021. Fedora, Ubuntu and many others dropped it earlier. Debian is another big distro and Trixie, the upcoming release in 2025, drops support for 32-bit computers. FreeBSD 15, coming this year, also drops support for it

@fclc.bsky.social So I looked at the whole 24H2 OEM processor list (www.windowslatest.com/2025/02/17/n...) to see if it's an indication for Windows 12. Unfortunately, while Elkhart Lake is removed, Jasper Lake is not (so no AVX(2)). A weird oddity is that Ice Lake is removed but Rocket Lake is not.
