Dear Santa, thank you for the dolls and pencils and the fish. It's Easter now, so I hope I didn't wake you but... honest, it is an emergency. There's a crack in my wall. Aunt Sharon says it's just an ordinary crack, but I know its not cause at night there's voices so... please please can you send someone to fix it? Or a policeman, or...
Back in a moment.
Thank you Santa.

Thank you Santa.

Takoyaki Cake Pop Edition
Yes, this video on YouTube Kids is by the same girl who cooked and ate a tarantula, reviewed adult fan art of herself - on four separate occasions, and most recently, um, oh, there's a new one.
It's hard to explain what is happening on her channel right now, except in numbers. Since she started this weird avant garde performance art kick, she's shot up the charts to be second in subscriber growth behind only Gura, and far and away the top in views for the past week.
Update:
If you aren't up to your eyeballs in Haachamania that thumbnail will look perfectly normal. I've been following a lot of it and without watching the most recent stream this would have passed without comment except for nice, one of her chill Minecraft building streams.
She's about 30 hours away from the million mark (currently 989,000 subscribers) so she'll probably settle back down to her normal levels of creative insanity soon. I think she wants to feel like she's earned that million. She has, of course, but she wants to feel it.
Update update:
Oh, it won't show full size even in an embed. You'll need to click through. Or not, if you want to sleep ever again.

- Need a 28GBps SSD? Highpoint has you covered, sort of. (Tom's Hardware)
It's a PCIe 4.0 x16 card with an NVMe RAID controller - just 0/1/10, no 5/6 here - that takes eight M.2 devices and merges them into one big, very fast, blob.
Price is around $1300. You can get much cheaper four-slot adaptors, because those can be done with a passive board and the CPU's own PCIe bifurcation support (simply splitting a x16 link into four x4 links), but if you want this many devices on a single card you need the expensive custom chip.
- Tesla bought $1.5 billion worth of Bitcoin. (Tom's Hardware)
And announced it would be accepting payments in BTC.
Given the timing, they've probably already made over $500 million on this.
- CD Projekt Red got hacked and is being held to ransom. (WCCFTech)
Their official response to their Perforce server getting hacked and all the files deleted was Pfft, we use Perforce, there's nothing worse you can do to us.
Also, they have backups.
- Zen 4 could deliver a 25% IPC increase and 40% overall performance boost over Zen 3 or not. (WCCFTech)
That's an awful lot for a fourth-gen part, but their track record so far makes this entirely plausible. Zen 4 won't be out this year, but there may be a Zen 3+ update in between.
Rumours for Zen 4 are only just starting to appear, but the rumours for Zen 3 were pretty darn accurate. AMD has spoken publicly about Zen 4 but has given few details so far. (The Street)
- 20% of all requests to Wikimedia - the image library for Wikipedia - are for one particular photo of a New York aster. (Wikimedia)
As in the flower. (Wikipedia)
Nobody knows why.
- PyPI is awash with spam right now. (ZDNet)
This is bad, first because it's full of spam, and second because if the moderators are busy fighting spam they might miss malware.
- Google's fuckup with Terraria is getting more attention now, though not from Google.
Ars Technica
Rock Paper Shotgun
IGN
PC Magazine
Polygon
The Escapist
The Verge
Curiously enough, DuckDuckGo provides much better search results here than Google itself.
I just wonder how much bad news is required to get Google to respond. Any competent or honest company would have done something about this already.
- You can't buy a home donut maker in Australia. They just don't exist. Commercial unit that can crank out 1750 donuts an hour, sure. Amazon AU sells those. Home unit that makes four or six at a time, no.
I could order one from Amazon US, but then I'd need a suitable adaptor, which would cost as much as the donut maker itself.

Chicken With A Chainsaw Edition
Ran out of individual videos, so here's a whole bunch of them. The ones with the little drummer girl start around the two minute mark.
Chicken With A Chainsaw Edition
Tech News
- YouTube locked the official channel for Terraria, a game that last time I checked had sold 10 million copies, over a million on Android alone. (TechRaptor)
And their Gmail account.
And still hasn't responded three weeks later.
Which means the lead developer lost access to everything he had on Google.
So they've cancelled their planned launch on Stadia.
Because fuck Google.
Commenters on Hacker News are unimpressed. Try Ctrl-F and search in that page for "mafia". Enjoy.
- They do this to everyone. Make them ten million dollars a year? They'll ban you.
Actually work for Google and can escalate through internal channels? They'll still ban you.
- How does the Arm Cortex-X1 on a 5nm process compare with the Arm Cortex-X1 on a 5nm process? (AnandTech)
Okay, it's TSMC's 5nm vs. Samsung's.
- Apparently you can make donuts with pancake mix too, though the recipes vary a lot in complexity. Some require additional plain flour, eggs, milk, butter, sugar, and so on, others are basically throw the pancake mix in a donut maker.
I really miss donuts. A single gluten-free donut costs as much as a dozen normal ones.
My grocery order now includes eggs, sugar, cinnamon, blackberry and strawberry jam, and a stick mixer. I'll have to go to Kmart if I want to get some proper donut trays though. (I have both a stick mixer and a hand mixer somewhere, I think. But they're not in the kitchen cupboard, which means they're in a box in the garage with all the spiders and I'd rather just buy a new one.)
- No free plan. (No Free Plan)
This is sound advice if you have an audience and don't depend on the network effect for growth and sustainability.
They do suggest free trials with long enough periods - and no up-front payment details, free plans for open source projects, and reasonably priced lifetime subscriptions.
- An Android Barcode Scanner app called Barcode Scanner suddenly became malware. (Malwarebytes)
It had ten million users.
Malwarebytes suggests installing Malwarebytes, which given the context of the article seems just a bit pushy.
I suggest throwing all your Android and iOS devices out the window of a very tall building, preferably one overlooking an active caldera.
- Phishing emails in Morse code? (Bleeping Computer)
So, it has come to this.
- 14 million programmers are using VSCode. (ZDNet)
VSCode sucks.
- A Paris court has found France guilty of failing to meet commitments under the Paris Agreement. (CBS)
The US, which withdrew from the agreement entirely, has nonetheless met or exceeded its own commitments.
- Reddit's five-second guerilla SuperbOwl spot.
Which they uploaded to Twitter because you can't embed Reddit posts.
- Glenn Greenwald on how the American mainstream media has turned into the Stasi. (Substack)
CNN, NBC, and the New York Times all have full-time staff dedicated to finding online services that still permit free speech - and destroying them.

Making Chicken Pancakes Edition
Tech News
- I have only one source of gluten-free chicken nuggets, they're not particularly cheap, and they're out of stock half the time.
But I now have a little oven that can cook basically anything and be wiped clean with a handful of paper towels no matter how messy the recipe. So time to experiment.
I've ordered a big batch of chicken fillets and gluten-free marinades, flour, breadcrumbs, and pancake mix to try out in various combinations. Plus some vegetables so I can just do a mini roast dinner. Won't go hungry this week.
- Speaking of PCIe 5.0 Silicon Motion expects to be shipping PCIe 5.0 SSD controllers in the second half of 2022. (Tom's Hardware)
No technical details yet, but the first PCIe 4.0 controllers could "only" reach 5GB per second so we might see something similar again.
- Reverse-engineering a one-bit processor. (Righto)
This is not even a bit-slice CPU, it is literally a one-bit architecture.
- You apparently can stop the Signal. (Bleeping Computer)
Iran banned Signal.
Signal suggested users use SSL proxies and provided sample code.
Security researchers posted information about security issues with this approach to GitHub.
Signal said please don't use GitHub for this, post the details to our support forums.
The researchers posted the information to Signal's support forums.
Signal banned them.
- Apps in Apple's App Store lie. (MSN)
They may say they store no private information, but they do.
When questioned, Apple said - and I quote - "Whatever."
Oh, and that article sets 87 cookies even with AdBlock Plus enabled. Literally. I counted them.
- AlmaLinux is a fork of CentOS - specifically CentOS 8. (AlmaLinux)
Sponsored by CloudLinux, which is a commercial fork of RHEL. It's out in beta right now.
- The internet is full of crazy people. (New York Times)
And not all of them work for the New York Times.
- Though many do.
They explicitly fired someone for discussing racist language. Outside of work. On the other side of the planet.

Not Complete Idiots Edition
YouTube felt it necessary to add its own Covid links to a video of a Canadian lawyer discussing Canadian legal decisions. While walking his dogs, which is one of the few permitted reasons for being out at night in Quebec. And Frei being Frei that in itself is legal debate because the older dog is disabled and can't walk.
In one of these ads the actress pretending to play the drums is doing a much better job of it than you'd expect from a mid-budget TV spot, and... Oh.
That would explain it.

- Myanmar's new military dictatorship has taken the very sensible step of banning Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. (Tech Crunch)
Any country that doesn't do this is out of its damn mind.
- Intel has fired back against Apple's new M1 Arm processor with... Benchmarks. (Tom's Hardware)
The benchmarks showing the M1 far in the lead are selective, but so are the benchmarks here showing the reverse. Both the M1 and Intel's 11th gen are competent designs, but both are currently limited to four full cores (the M1 also contains four slower cores) and get kerb-stomped by AMD on multithreaded tasks.
- Fujitsu is working towards 1PB tape cartridges. (Tom's Hardware)
Now we just need a station wagon that can move like an SR-71.
- The mortality of software. (Six Colors)
The problem with this argument is that software is inherently immortal. When it is "killed" it means that people stop using it because of secondary factors. That doesn't mean those factors are invalid - if your accounting software is no longer being updated and doesn't meet statutory reporting requirements, you need to find something new.
The apatosaurus in the room is that Apple routinely breaks software compatibility. In major ways, such as switching CPU architectures or dropping 32-bit support, and in minor ways with every point release.
Hololive Trivia Corner
Haachama is at 970,000 subscribers, Coco at 974,000, and Amelia at 984,000. They're set to all join the 1 Million Club in the space of a week, which is likely why Haachama has been doing her weird performance art stuff - she was a bit further behind but has been rapidly catching up.
Plus the official Hololive channel - where they air the weird Hololive Graffiti 3D clips - is at 976,000 and will tick over at about the same time.

I wondered about this - she's been doing these performance art pieces recently, with video edits and sound effects and fake ad inserts and graphics overlays, timed neatly to exactly an hour, and I assumed they were pre-recorded.
But she's responding to superchats.
World's First Edition
Tech News
- The world's first cat video.
It's real. Digitally restored, colorised, and with sound added, but it was originally filmed by Louis Lumière in 1899. (IMDB)
- Fixing the ending of ME3: No. Editing Miranda's butt: Yes. (Bounding into Comics)
Mass Effect Legendary Edition is supposed to be just a graphics update, but BioWare / EA could not resist ruining that which was already good.
Well, we shall see how much they've ruined in May. I wasn't going to pre-order it anyway.
Recommended specs are either an i7-7700 or a Ryzen 7 3700X, and a GTX 1070 or Vega 56. (Tom's Hardware)
Though minimum specs are much lower than that.
- First rule of Disqus club is don't use Disqus. (Supun Kavinda)
You can easily add comments to any site with Disqus, whereupon it downloads 2MB of stuff across 76 HTTP requests on every page view, adds 11 third-party trackers, and shares all your data everywhere.
And if you're on a paid plan it still does all of that. And it's owned by an advertising company.
The author of this piece offers his own alternative commenting platform, but the questions about Disqus are still valid.
- Synology's new enterprise NAS range only works with Synology disks. (Serve the Hoe)
Which are actually made by Toshiba, but no, you can't use Toshiba drives.
- In the first sign that there might be an actual adult in the Biden Administration, Commerce secretary nominee Gina Raimondo says Huawei should stay on the department's shitlist. (Bloomberg)
Or at least said she knows of no reason the current shitlist should be changed, which is not quite the same thing.
- I missed this update to an earlier side-story on the SolarWinds debacle: JetBrains wasn't hacked, and wasn't being investigated. (ZDNet)
Hackers accessed a TeamCity server at SolarWinds, apparently, but not the TeamCity codebase at JetBrains. That would have been a significant worry.
- Working for the squirrel.
Jay is Risu's audio engineer for her songs. She does live duets with herself, so you can imagine the effort required for her recorded material.
- She's doing it again.

- Google and Australia are continuing their slap fight. (ZDNet)
Australia's Dinosaur Media Protection Act is stupid and counterproductive but so is Google.
- Microsoft unsurprisingly is enjoying every minute of this. (ZDNet)
Particularly Google's threat to withdraw their search platform from Australia if their demands are not met.
- AMD shipped nearly one million Ryzen 5000 CPUs in Q4 2020. (WCCFTech)
So they are shipping in volume, they're just being bought in even more volume. In Australia there's currently a three-month backlog of orders for the 5900X, though the 5800X is in stock.
- Meanwhile Sony shipped 4.5 million PlayStation 5s in their Q4. (Thurrott.com)
All the Ryzen 5000s, all the PS5 and Xbox Series X and S chips, and all the Radeon 6000 GPU chips are coming off TSMC's 7nm production line and there just doesn't seem to be enough of it.
- Mass Effect is getting a texture and resolution upgrade. (WCCFTech)
The textures particularly for the first game are not great; they look kind of bad at 720p and much worse at anything above that.
The new Mass Effect Legendary bundle will include HD remasters of all three games and 40 DLC packs (they lost the source code for one of them), and will arive May 14 on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation.

- Huawei's completely new original mobile operating system HarmonyOS is totally not Android unless it is. (WCCFTech)
It's freely available to developers and tech journalists who provide photocopies of their passports and credit cards and pass a background check and log in to a virtual phone located somewhere in China.
After which, well, it says Android 10 right in the system info screen. (Ars Technica)
Search-and-replace guys. Eighth-graders cheating on their homework know that.
Even Ars Technica seems to have figured out that Huawei are less than entirely truthful.
- PCIe 5.0 switch chips are sampling from Microchip now. (Serve the Home)
There's no huge need for PCIe 5.0 just yet; though SSDs can now saturate PCIe 4.0, in the process they also saturate the CPU. With one exception: High-speed network cards already saturate a PCIe 4.0 x16 sloy, and you don't RAID those the way you do storage devices.
- The Sudo exploit on Linux and BSD also applies to MacOS. (ZDNet)
Even a fully-patched copy of Big Sur is currently vulnerable.

By hostile they mean that they could potentially see some liability and not just everyone else.

Locked Down And On Fire Edition
Tech News
- Perth is having a bad week. (Phys.org)
Having to evacuate from a bushfire during a WBSDP lockdown can't be fun. Here in Sydney the fires had the decency to stop right when the plague kicked in, and it's been soggy here ever since with the switch to a La Nina cycle.
I went out to the shops this evening for the first time in a few weeks, having managed to essentially avoid the entire lockdown.
- Epyc Milan specs and prices have leaked. (Tom's Hardware)
Though these are Dell's prices, not AMD's, so the small price increases may or may not reflect the MSRP.
- Alder Lake-P is on its way with 14 cores and 20 threads unless it's not. (WCCFTech)
That weird config is six big cores and eight little cores; the six big core are hyperthreaded, while the little ones are not.
- Scaleway has MacMini M&Ms. (Hacker News)
Or something like that. At 1/8th the price of Amazon. People in the thread don't seem to be overly fond of Scaleway as a hosting provider though.
The price of $85 per month would have you paying for the basic Mac Mini M1 every eight months, which is about average for new hardware at a pay-by-the-month provider.
Also, Apples home page punches you right in the face with their virtue signalling.
- Want to build a little custom router thingy? The ODROID-H2+ may be what you need. (Serve the Home)
For $119 it comes with an Atom-based Celeron J4115, dual 2.5GbE ports, one M.2 slot, two SO-DIMM slots supporting 8GB officially and 32GB in reality, HDMI, DisplayPort, two USB 3, two USB 2, three audio jacks, and two SATA ports.
The optional $47 H2 Net Card option adds four more 2.5GbE ports and makes it into a pretty solid little home network appliance.
Seems to lack WiFi though.

Time Travelling AI Edition
As usual with modern AI, this is simultaneously impressive and, well, not impressive at all. AI Dungeon is a GPT-powered text adventure in the classic style, by which I mean it doesn't always make a lot of sense.
But when it does - for example when Amelia tells it she uses time travel to go back one minute and the AI is able to play along - it earned a surprised Pikachu face from me at least. I wasn't expecting that one to work.
Disclaimer: To be fair, I don't expect anything to work.

- The Amazon Telescreen is now available in a choice of colours. (The Verge)

Disclaimer: Does not actually contain instructions to build your own X, though it does contain instructions to build your own X window manager.
- Why does my PC consistently find all its memory only when I reboot twice? Why am I complaining that it seems insufficiently arbitrary?
- Lint-picking the MIT license. (KE Mitchell)
A very close examination of a very short license. There's nothing really wrong with the license, but if you're planning to use it on a project it wouldn't hurt to read this.
- The NoxPlayer Android emulator update server was delivering malware for months. (ZDNet)
Apparently in a targeted attack, which is why it wasn't spotted sooner.
- Crystal 0.36 is out. (Crystal Lang)
The plan was that the next release after 0.35 would be 1.0, but there were a lot of minor updates to be committed and tested so they've decided on one more point release first.
Slightly scary is that they changed the associativity of the exponentiation operator - to be fair, they got it wrong and it needed to be fixed - but this only matters if you're chaining exponentiations and you're probably not. If you are, use Julia.
