Why is there a gap between top and bottom workspaces in Unity? Why is that gap as wide or wider than a title bar on a window is tall? Why can you drag windows far enough into this gap that the title bar is no longer clickable from the top work space or the bottom?

I don't know anything about graphics, because that's a waste of cool GPU hardware, but from a compute point of view, everyone seems to be converging on NVIDIA-like SIMT architectures. Partly because they work really well, partly because CUDA took over everything, so it's the model GPGPU programmers tend to think in. I also second that modern AMD drivers are cool and good. The only reason I still use their proprietary bits is because I need OpenCL to do compute, and even that seems to be inching towards being open source.

the other thing about those guys: talos II, as opposed to the first talos that was never actually manufactured, doesn't look like a custom design the case is so drat big it could very easily be the supermicro openpower reference design stuffed in a deskside. in which case you could build it yourself for a lot less money

haha here's another reason to be skeptical it appears that no one is shipping power9 yet. ibm has a single power9 sku, and it's $65,000 in base trim, sold only as part of scientific computing / hpc deals tyan and supermicro have no power9 skus openpower has no power9 reference design there's no aix power9 hardware yet you can't buy power9 processor cards for existing power systems this poo poo is vaporware

riscv desktop when there's a rpi-ish thing out at the moment that costs $1000 but it's so goddamn engineering-sample that there's a grid of bnc connectors on it for hooking up a scope to the ddr bus and that core is in-order anyway so it's not even rpi-tier, let alone like c2d-tier which is what i'd consider an acceptable standard for actual day to day usage.

i doubt anyone thinks the power9 in and of itself is vaporware, ibm has done processors before it turns out. i assume from context that nbsd is calling the whatever-it-was long-promised power9-based workstation made by no-names vaporware
