I kind of liked their more modern art direction they had at one point, but looks like they went back to old school look.

How do you apply the theme? I don't see anything changing from the Windows 95 style interface after selecting "Classic Blue" in winecfg.

I'm using Debian testing which is semi-rolling and only wish the freeze period would be shorter and not like some half a year plus.

That's cool! By the way, if anyone wants a newer KDE for Debian testing / unstable, check repos by Norbert Preining:

What I mean it's better to have a separete ASIC card just for that AI, instead of stuffing every new ASIC idea into the GPU making it bloated and less useful for actual tasks like graphics.

Quoting: 3zekielNow the main issue is, with HW accelerated inference, you tend to need to fine tune the network for each accelerator architecture. So it is unlikely you will have s one size fit it all network you can deploy everywhere directly.
That's why cramming AI ASICs into GPU isn't necessarily a good idea. If you really need an ASIC it's better to just add another card.

I don't think they can prevent anyone from implementing tensor flow in hardware? They didn't invent it.

Looks like a possible Valve Index 2 will make their VR kit go wireless

So instead of being essentially a fancy display, the headset will have its own GPU?

That moves things into interesting direction of eventually rendering everything on the headset itself, but I guess they need to get small enough first while being powerful. Current GPUs required for VR use a ton of power and need serious heat dissipation.

I'd say it's not so important in light of AMD providing a cross GPU alternative. But it's still not something automatic - games need to implement both APIs for them to be useful.

Does CP2077 work well for anyone? I get an audio crackling issue with Wine 6.11.
