My hands are still tied re saying more than what is published, nor do I want to end up like Martha Stewart did - I can say it really really sucks that Microshit + Intel took 4ever to try ARM (RISC)
Does not count that MShit did try once in crappy way using the wrong brand of RISC/ARM chip with failed Windows RT
Reduced Instruction Set Computing - Bottom line is - Less transistors for {the same computing power} So longer batter life & if say its desk top with AC power? Then you can end up with more computer power because less transistors also means you can increase the transistor counts for even more computing power - If you try that with Intel/Microshit X86 you need massive liquid cooling systems - With RISC you can get for gaming the same computing power with much less heat -
I should point out that RISC is
The most often used CPU world wide - FAR exceeds Intel/MS X-86 - RISC CPU count is just over 60 Billion Chips world wide X-86 sales continue to decrease. Intel recently bought a company so they could learn how2
Excerpt from what as of today is on line -
I can say there is one hell of a lot more to be said about this but I AM NOT FUCKING ALLOWED2 without ending up in Prison
Microsoft will bring a natively compiled version of Windows 10 to Qualcomm's ARM processors next year, plus an x86 emulation layer, designed to run on a new class of Windows 10 mobile PCs.
Microsoft is bringing Windows 10 desktop to Qualcomm's ARM processors, setting the stage for a new class of cellular-connected, Windows 10 mobile PCs.
And the icing on the cake: Microsoft will add an emulation layer to this version of Windows 10 for ARM that will enable x86/Win32 apps to run.
on December 8. At that conference for Microsoft's OEM partners, Microsoft demonstrated a version of Windows 10 running on Qualcomm's Snapdragon 820 processor.
The coming version of Windows 10 for Qualcomm is not Windows RT. It is a version of Microsoft's full Windows 10 desktop that's compiled natively to run on the Qualcomm CPU. It can run Universal Windows Platform apps. But it also will allow Win32 apps to run via emulation. According to Microsoft, existing peripherals and enterprise features that are currently supported in Windows 10 for Intel PCs will work on Windows 10 on Qualcomm devices.
When Windows 10 for Qualcomm be available? Microsoft officials are only saying in 2017. But my tipsters said the Cobalt emulation technology will be a Redstone 3 feature, which means Fall 2017. I'm assuming that means Fall 2017 for Windows 10 on Qualcomm, too.
"The concept to retail shelf timeline is normally two years," said Terry Myerson, the head of Microsoft's Windows and Devices Group, when I asked him earlier this week about timing. (It's not clear right now when the "concept" phase of this officially began.)
Another big question: Is this the official end of Wintel? The non-click-bait answer is no.
The general-purpose Windows 10 PCs in market today are all Intel-based. Microsoft is still working with Intel on extended reality/virtual reality, high-end gaming PCs, and new initiatives like "Project Evo," which Microsoft and Intel announced today at WinHEC.
Evo is a broad-reaching project that encompasses "all-new ways for devices to light up with the latest in advanced security, artificial intelligence and Cortana, mixed reality and gaming." One of the areas Evo addresses is "far-field speech communications" - the kind of technology needed for some kind of device or experience similar to Amazon Echo/Google Home - which will allow users to ask Cortana questions or make requests from across the room. (Hello, Home Hub?)
Microsoft is walking the Intel-ARM tightrope, by trying to make it clear that Windows 10 on ARM is meant for a specific class of devices, namely mobile PCs of the greater than 6-inch screen variety.
Microsoft will be offering Windows 10 on Qualcomm to OEMs across a variety of categories, including 6-, 10-, and 14-inch categories, [/border

How is that I've been posting this image here for years, but then as soon as I use it once or twice on minichan, suddenly other people will start using it over here?
@OP
Nice electrical engineer madpasta.

Honestly, this is the first time I remember seeing that image.
@previous (Bat Nugget is !GrateABlug)
Yes, but if you had gotten it from here, the filename would have matched the physical name. However, this filename is much higher than the physical name, indicating it was obtained elsewhere, and since the only places I've ever posted it are here and MC, this poster must have gotten it from MC.
@previous (FuckAlms !vX8K53rFBI)
Sounds logical, not saying you're wrong. Just saying, I don't remember seeing it here.
@previous (Bat Nugget is !GrateABlug)
You likely wouldn't have, since I haven't used it in a while.
@previous (FuckAlms !vX8K53rFBI)
Yo I am in a super rush to get to a meeting but please review a PM conversation And if you can spare a few minutes jot me a PM re comment about why you could not spare a few seconds yesterday when you had a few minutes to spend in the thread.
OUT Of here for now
