M5: Neuer Apple-Silicon-Chip bald in Mac und iPad

Einem Bericht zufolge erscheinen bald erste Modelle mit Apples neuem SoC. Fraglich bleibt, ob auch nun dem iPad Pro der Vortritt gelassen wird.

An Ode To The Game Boy Advance

https://brainbaking.com/post/2025/03/an-ode-to-the-game-boy-advance/

A very deep dive into this notable piece of computing (and gaming) history.

Remember Acorn Computers, the creators of the first ARM chip and BBC Micro? Take a trip down memory lane or catch up at the RISC OS North show, which kicks off tomorrow, March 29th, in Warrington, UK.

Visit https://www.riscosnorth.uk/ for details.

Dug out the GP2X today.

I had some real fun with this ARM-based Linux-game console - wow - nearly 20 years ago! A little Montezuma's Revenge for the SMS shown running under emulation, here.

Such a fun device!

Was reading this @tuxedocomputers update on the status of their ARM based laptop https://www.tuxedocomputers.com/en/How-is-TUXEDOCOes-ARM-Notebook-Coming-Along.tuxedo and I’m disappointed that Qualcomm decided to shut the door. Is this because Microsoft is paying them to be exclusive? We can’t have nice things :-/ #tuxedo #linux #arm #qualcomm

Общеобразовательное о том, какие процессоры могут быть по архитектуре. С экскурсом в историю развития.
«Как Intel создал ARM, ARM похоронил MIPS, на очереди X86?» На нескольких видео-хостингах:

Как «яблоко» #Apple и «жёлудь» #Acorn объединившись создали ARM — Advanced RISC Machines в 1990-м, хотя в оригинале это было Acorn RISC Machine с 1985-м года.

Первый релиз на ARM6 состоялся в 1992-м году и был это КПК — Apple Newton PDA на базе процессора ARM610.

Для получения именно десктопного процессора #PowerPC эта же самая Apple с 1991 года была в альянсе с #IBM и #Motorola работавшими над #RISC процессором архитектуры Power. В результате работы альянса над этой архитектурой стало семейство PowerPC процессоров.

В это время у Sun Microsystems было семейство SPARC — тоже на базе RISC, ставшее процессорами и для рабочих станций и для серверов. Первые системы #SunMicrosystems на процессорах #SPARC начали поставляться в 1987 году и на 1989 год были дешевле Intel 80386 процессора.

Кстати, именно серверные RISC-процессоры уже стали 64-х разрядными в реальных машинах, когда #x86 только планировали выбираться из 32-х разрядности.

Qualcomm schwärzt ARM offenbar bei Kartellbehörden an

In Europa, Südkorea und den USA soll Qualcomm Kartellbeschwerden gegen ARM eingereicht haben. ARM halte Technik zurück.

Google said today that its Drive app for Windows is now “generally available” for all users with Arm-powered PCs (including Snapdragon X chipsets), meaning they support the Google Drive app for Windows natively.

How is TUXEDO’s ARM Notebook Coming Along

In this update, we’d like to provide some insights into its progress.

Enfin on a beau manquer de machines #ARM puissantes et abordables pour #Linux, je travaille depuis hier sur mon #PinebookPro (mon PC perso principal est indisponible), et le Pinebook Pro a beau être peu puissant et donc lent, ça reste quand même un portable d'usage général complètement utilisable.

D'ailleurs j'écris ça dessus...

#Manjaro KDE avec un thunderbird, un navigateur Vivaldi, un Signal desktop (toutes choses gourmandes) plus une pétachiée de terminaux, explorateur de fichiers etc ouverts en même temps, ça va, ça roule Raoul.

Y'a juste des moment où c'est un peu mou.

I took a photo of some movie that was on TV about 10 years ago, seeing what looks like an Acorn computer of some sort on the desk, and this is what I got. I'm not really sure what's going on here and I'm equally unsure if I want to know.

#SoftBank Acquiring #ARM #Server #CPU Vendor #AmpereComputing
The announcement isn't too surprising given SoftBank's involvement in Arm and expecting #Ampere Computing to be acquired... Though many had speculated it would ultimately have been acquired by #Oracle given their existing relationship.

Just a reminder. You have a trans woman to thank for the processors in your phone, Apple Silicon, Chromebooks, and Windows on Arm devices. And even inspiring RaspberryPI. #Acorn #ARM #RISC #Computers #SoC #TransAwareness #Trans en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophie_...
