AMD announces Zen 2 design is 'complete', Zen+ now 'sampling' and more

Overall I think this is a point where CPU engineers need to start thinking in terms of "smart" and not purely in the terms of "fast". And if it can't be made smart then make it simple so that you know what the CPU is doing and what it's capable of doing.
know what the CPU is doing
Well , off-topic , but I saw a great BlackHat presentation.
Basically some of the code is an enigma to what it will do.

A new test build of OpenRA is out, with the full Dune 2000 Harkonnen campaign

To be clear on something, the OpenRA game engine is open source under the GPL, however, the actual games of course aren't. Thankfully, they were released for free by EA a few years ago so OpenRA simply downloads the free releases.
Oh, I did not realize this... I thought you needed the original disks to play. Is that true for everything that OpenRA plays? Dune, Red Alert, and Tiberium Dawn?
For Red Alert and C&C it gets most of the content via a download but you need the disks for the videos if i recall.
For Dune 2000 you need the disk even for the music.

I liked Reigns but forgot about the Unity fix.
