Hey! I saw one just like that just outside Studio E!

Only Arm64.

Good news. In VS 2026 Preview /Oy- is now the default, even in the "Release" configuration. This is the case at least for new projects. Glad to see this finally fixed.

Not a bad alternative to the departed Windows Services for Android.

November 1994.

Now this is something unexpected: Tahoe's new "Apps" pannel behaves worse than Windows start menu. It is sluggish, at times downright unrespinsive, some UI elements just don't work... it is me or "26" is just not Apple's number?!

macOS Tahoe (download) is 20GB. Geez!

Some dev tools from colledge days...

My next macbook will have SVE. Will I still have my M1 by 2030?

Please, debug card manufacturers: Stop using micro-USB for UART ports. Just stop it. Really! No more. Please! There is this thing called USB-C now - been here for a while. Pretty solid. Give micro-USB honorable fairwell. Please!

the most beautiful instruction ever designed.

When there are all adults in an adult setting it is weird to ask where the "potty" is. You ask for the "bathroom", or some other adult word for it. Same goes for an engineer to say "BSOD". The word is "Bugcheck".

Seriously, Governors, think about this: What if you start prorating decreases in federal funding into captivations from federal taxes?

If the gov stays shutdown till April, does that mean I don' have to pay federal taxes?

Very exciting news for the #WindowsOnArm ecosystem

Here is my updated TF-A + EDK2 for QEMU. It enables running Windows and Hypervisor under TCG. The package includes my startup script plus a sample OS image. Use with QEMU 10.1.0. With this you can do everything I demoed on the Linaro Connect keynote. 1drv.ms/u/c/a075d439...

Preview of Xbox App finally fully functional on Arm64, allowing you to download and install purchased or subscribed games. Yes, most will be running under emulation and there will be glitches. But this is how we erode chick-and-egg adoption resistance to Arm64

I am getting a vibe from this USPS notification and it is not a good one...

You know, when I saw Matrix for the first time, my friends dragged me out of work to the theater and I knew nothing about the movie. Hadn't even heard the title before entering the room. Imagine the surprise...

Before Blender and Maya, Newtek's LightWave was the king 3D gfx software. Initially for the Amiga and then ported all the way to Windows NT for Alpha.

Windows can run on it fine if you exclude/block the little cores (the A520s). In fact, this system is SBSA Level 6 compliant (with the same exception - exclude the little cores).
