bridgman so up to 160 threads on RDNA2 it is. I stand corrected.

[kiffmet]

That's not how it works. I.e. RDNA2 shares 1 scalar unit with 2 SIMD32 arrays per CU. Using the SIMD/vector units for code compilation would likely only...

[kiffmet]

Compilers contain massive chains of "if", "else if", "else" (this is what "switch" usually compiles to). This...

[kiffmet]

Hell yeah. When it comes to providing a somewhat up-to-date port of the Linux graphics drivers, OpenBSD currently takes the lead by a huge amount. On...

[kiffmet]

Good. It would be very appreciated if the whole ordeal of getting potential new Wayland protocols evaluated and pursued/dropped was streamlined and a...

I.e. System76's Cosmic Compositor uses some crates from Wayland-rs....

[kiffmet]

systemd isn't a buffer-overflow CVE hellscape and Wayland-rs does actually exist. Maybe you too should be rewritten in Rust :P...

[kiffmet]

Cups-browsed should be rewritten in Rust, since the packet parsing is atrocious and fuzzing revealed a buffer overflow nightmare within a mere 10 minutes....

[kiffmet]

Aryma Still, there'll be a Microsoft flavor of SPIR-V and a Khronos flavor. Admittedly, they'll be closer together than i.e. DXIL and SPIRV are, but ultimately,...

People having issues can force load the amdgpu driver early during the boot process. Both dracut and mkinitcpio support this. Plymouth could also be configured...

[kiffmet]

All that because a Pentium 4 is too slow loading the drivers for a 6800XT during boot and broke the eyecandy boot animation…

Seriously...

And nearly none of it it supports well or even completely....

I've read that Haiku is a single-user OS. Does this mean that every process runs with administrative privileges? Also, how's the port of the Linux DRM...

[kiffmet]

I don't think it'll be particularily beneficial (full RT is more about determinism than always providing the lowest latency possible) and may additionally...
