| diddledani | https://www.amd.com/en/events/ces | 14:57 |
| penguin42 | davef: I find them a bit depressing talking heads and too little of 'we just did ...' | 14:59 |
| davef | Typical NASA broadcast | 15:03 |
| penguin42 | get out of the way and show me telemtary.... | 15:05 |
| zxmpi | realign your garden radio telescope and listen to the *beep* *beeps* | 15:07 |
| davef | diddledani: did they talk about new GPUs? | 15:55 |
| diddledani | they're doing rdna2 mobile gpus from february IIRC, and a new 5500 low-end for $199 later this spring | 15:56 |
| davef | pffft.. mobile | 16:06 |

| davef | nice, AMD are going from PGA to LGA sockets. | 16:38 |
| davef | AMD has been using PGA since the early 90s (and probably before) | 16:39 |
| diddledani | it is somewhat amazing they've managed to eek out the PGA style socket for so long | 16:43 |
| diddledani | IIRC threadrippers and Epyc moved a couple years ago to LGA | 16:44 |
| davef | they managed to cram 1509 pins on AM4 | 16:45 |
| diddledani | wowser | 16:45 |
| davef | well, thats by my estimate.. | 16:46 |
| davef | probably more like 1300 | 16:46 |
| diddledani | not far off - according to wiki and quietpc it's 1331 | 16:46 |
| davef | I did 39x39-12(corners) but failed to account for the middle | 16:47 |
| diddledani | aah | 16:47 |
| davef | If you're interested in the pin-out.. I just found this.. https://www.docdroid.net/6cDW11N/am4-pinout-diagram-pdf | 16:48 |
| diddledani | eww, that's a horrid site - click zoom and it gives you a popup window/tab | 16:49 |
| diddledani | adverts be damned | 16:49 |
| davef | ublock origin | 16:49 |
| davef | and NextDNS for dns filtering | 16:49 |
| diddledani | in fact, click ANYWHERE | 16:49 |
| davef | I see no adverts | 16:49 |
| davef | My Pi 4 just arrived | 17:52 |

| davef | I can now start my home automation project | 17:58 |
| diddledani | how many professional animators and game devs actually use a laptop tho? | 18:13 |
| penguin42 | diddledani: I think you get some who like to work flexibly like others - coffee shops, whereever they're comfy; but also you do get special cases of them working on sites | 18:45 |
| penguin42 | diddledani: I remember seeing the Timeteam stuff where they had animators set up in the back | 18:46 |
| ball | Well, so much for Ubuntu on the Raspberry Pi | 23:17 |
| daftykins | i never got the impression that would be stable to run | 23:19 |
| ball | My son's in tears. I'll have to reimage the microSDHC card. | 23:19 |
| daftykins | the old classic, card corruption? | 23:20 |
| ball | No, it just locked up hard. Had to pull the power cable. | 23:21 |
| daftykins | could be due to the same, should be able to fsck and bring it back to life though | 23:21 |
| daftykins | wiping in the face of surprises is what i did to Windows 9x in my youth ;) | 23:22 |
| ball | It's not my usual approach but it ran so well on Raspberry Pi OS that I'll put it back | 23:32 |
