« Last post by Rhienfo on Sat, 24 October 2026, 17:00:31 »If your talking about the php exploit, basically an old exploit found in 2024 that people didn't think could lead to anything could actually lead to something under the right conditions. People were overhyping it (it's definitely not gonna destroy 70% of the internet) but because php runs so much of the internet people were sent in a panic. It should be fine as long as everything is updated. I'll link some articles about it.

Ergonomics / Re: How did you get faster at typing?
« Last post by gregorymiller on Sat, 24 October 2026, 16:50:29 »For children who are still learning where the letters are, I would start with short games rather than a speed ranking. Dad4Kids has free typing games for kids. I am sharing our project here, so this is not an independent recommendation. The games are for practice, and I would not treat a game score as a measure of typing speed.

Latest geekbench uploaded cpu
Epic 9996 Zen (6c) the (dense) cores.
Is demonstrated to be 8-20% IPC increase over 9700x.
So...
@ 4.1ghz, 9700x (zen5) scores 2444, while latest released show zen6c scored 2847
Tp4's 9700x, pbo maxed, pulls 3260 @ 5.75ghz
So per ghz scaling is 0.948
Zen 6 is going to be minimum 6.5ghz, likely 6.75ghz, High-Potentially 7ghz
Calculatn'
6.5ghz, 4282.35 + (30% performance single core vs zen5 9700x)
6.75ghz, 4447.06 + (36%)
7ghz, 4611.76 + (41%)
This is BEFORE X3d vcache.

Group Buys and Preorders / Re: [GB] DCS SMRT R2 - GB Complete

I do think I'm going to keep physical ISO in the base for my next set. That Enter is also used in Japan, Latin America, and other places outside of Europe. So just going by the UK/EU sales numbers, I may not be getting the full picture.

You more than most people are likely aware of the strong connection between the Wyse terminals, and SouthEast Asia.
So now I get why the numpads aren't a big item, as they aren't popular there.
I wonder what the 'mystery' kit is. More special keys, like Break, Clear/Home, and Compose? 10u spacebar colours? Or, a compatibility kit?

Why won't podcasters invest in a good speaker system, so they can voice check themselves.
Seriously, they must be running off soundbars or crappy single driver logitex.
MINIMUM, MINIMUM, Ka11 dac, fosi pffb 3255 amp, and a proper relatively flat bookshelf..
All together, < $400.
