SHARP AQUOS R7 [2022] VS NOKIA PUREVIEW 808 [2012]

Full-fledged cameraphone benchmarks are aimed on screens > 1280px width. So almost any desktop or laptop should be fine. Smartphones are not supported, in favor of pixel-peeping convenience. Updated on 2022.12.24! 100% crops of landscape image added. CURRENTLY TEST IS NOT OPTIMIZED FOR MOBILE VIEW! IMAGE WIDTH > 1280px IS RECOMMENDED! ▒ DIRECT COMPARISON In the very beginning of the test I underline the fact that we are comparing only resolution and not the dynamic range.

BLENDER 3.X WORKS ON WINDOWS 7!

UPDATED ON: 2023-08-01 Latest compatible Blender version 3.6.1 Just a super quick note to refresh previous Blender topic. As you may already know that [Blender 2.93 can work on Windows 7] even despite the fact that it is not officially supported. [Alexandru Naiman] went even deeper and it looks like he made the impossible. Now you can run even the most modern versions of Blender. We are speaking about 3.

SONIM XP8 ▀ ULTIMATE RUGGED SMARTPHONE FOR DARK AGES

Considering the fact that world is going completly mad the most important features for smartphone will be reability, long running time and neat network reception. In such scenario [Sonim XP8] is a perfect phone because it has interchangable battery, strong millitary protection and it is almost indestructible. Device is based around [Android 8.1] , so telemetry is minimal, but nerual networks is already there [in their rudimentary state]. So rooting phone and installing [neat ip-tables firewall] and [root-based hosts adblocker] will solve problem like there was no any.

DELL PRECISION 7510 VS 7520 ▀ PERFORMANCE COMPARISON

It’s been a while since i’ve posted useless table comparisions. So here is one! Recently i bought second-hand Dell Precision 7520 in very good condition. Purchased it as an emergency backup for future use. Neat laptops will be hard to find in my country due to tech sanctions. 7510 model is based around Sky Lake architecture [E3-1545Mv5] . 7520 model is based around Kaby Lake architecture [E3-1535Mv6] . Differences between E3-1545Mv5 and E3-1535Mv6 are marginal, but they exist.

64-CORES/128-THREADS THREADRIPPER 3995WX WORKSTATION GRADE CPU CONFIRMED TO WORK IN WINDOWS 7

Well known Chinese driver modder [Canonkong] confirmed that [64-cores/128-threads Threadripper 3995WX] based upon sWRX8 chipset works flawlessly in Windows 7 environment. Considering the news it looks like that more recent [5995WX] will also work without any issues. So, we have plenty of headroom in terms of system performance. As for me, i have no need to switch to “recent operating systems” like Windows 10/11. Here is brief [confirmation] from the WinRaid forum:

0PATCH ▀ TWO ADDITIONAL YEARS OF WINDOWS 7 SECURITY UPDATES

If [rumoured] additional three years of Windows 7 support won’t happen than we have an alternative solution. Usually i don’t advertise non-free services, but this one is an exception. [0patch] is micro-patching service, which fix problems of Windows 7 in computer RAM on-the-fly rather than changing system files on drive storage. I recommend this one, because i’m going to use it by myself right after ESU updates will come to EOL.

HODEJEGERNE [2011]

A friend of mine dropped me a recommendation to watch the [movie] . So i’ve done it and now recommend it to you. If you like non-cliche movies and understand nordic self-irony and humour welcome on board! No YT video at this time because film owners blocked embedded content on extrenal sites. Here is [direct link] to YT trailer.

MIAMI VICE [1984-1990]

[Miami Vice] ….what can i say? I don’t know why it has status of cult tv series. Plot and acting are very plain and sometimes ridiculously childish. One thing which i know for sure is that film demonstrates pretty good music selection for the era. We can hear not only generic stuff like pop and rock, but more underground things like techno, funk and reggae, which are also here.

PERSONAL CONCLUSIONS OF A LIFETIME

1. Never ever ask a question when you know that answer is going to be a complete lie [some people are always lying or how they think "holding smth not important back"] 2. For most cases it is pretty safe to talk frankly with people, because they are not really listening or simply don't care much about 3. Be yourself [kinda trite expression, but generally works for me]
