  • AMD's consumer chip sales are down even more than Intel's - by a massive 65%. (Tom's Hardware)

    Unlike Intel, though, AMD's other divisions - servers, gaming, and embedded - saw pretty solid performance, with gaming down slightly and embedded up by 163% thanks mostly to the Xilinx acquisition.

    They still lost money for the quarter, but $140 million compared to Intel's $2.8 billion in red ink.

    Strongest economy ever.

1 That SER6 is painful, considering it's about $50 more than I paid for my i5-1235U SEI12.  But at least the '12 is a decent machine--it's faster than one of our dev servers at work, which is using some sub-2GHz Xeons that are who knows how old.

3 Rick C, yesterday you mentioned "a series of books I've been reading on Kindle. The basic premise is that a couple of decades from now, pretty much all the governments on Earth collapsed due to the stupid stuff they're all doing. . ."

Author and series title, please?

4 Furball, the author is E.M. Foner, and the series starts with "Date Night on Union Station."  Ignore the slightly-silly cover.

5 On the other hand, we didn't have social media influencers before automation put a lot of factory workers out of a job.

Apple pies are delicious. But never mind apple pies. What colour is a green orange?
