Top Story
- AMD's Ryzen 7000 range looks set to go zoom. (WCCFTech)
The new top of the line 7950x has a base clock speed of 4.5GHz and a maximum speed of 5.7GHz. The current 5950X has a much more sedate base speed of 3.4GHz and a top speed of 4.9GHz.
Coupled with a 15% improvement in performance per clock that should result in some speedy chips.
Tech News
- Ryzen 7000 may have limited overclocking potential. (Hot Hardware)
They're already going to 5.7GHz. What do you want?
- Motherboard makers are showing off their upcoming motherboards for Ryzen 7000. (Tom's Hardware)
Which seems like a sensible thing to do.
- Speaking of chips they just doubled in price in Australia. (MSN)
Seriously. I bought a couple of bags last week at $2.20, and when I went to get more they were $4.30. Apparently the same floods that sent the market here in New House City soaring right when I was looking to buy also wiped out much of Australia's potato crop.
- Oh, and interest rates are up again, so I have that going for me, which is nice.
- GitLab is not going to delete projects that aren't updated for a year. (The Register)
Which is good, but you have to wonder how such an obviously stupid decision got off the ground in the first place.
- Chinese crapware makers Tencent are looking to buy a majority stake in Ubisoft. (Hot Hardware)
Not sure if that will make Ubisoft better or worse.

- How it's going:
- If you watch the video in that first one, then yes, that's who you think it is.
Disclaimer: Unless you think it's someone other than who it is, in which case it's not.

"how such an obviously stupid decision"
It starts with trying to turn a revision control system into a development platform, which then starts to seem like a good candidate to make into a social media platform. It's all the twitter addicts's faults.
