The A16 is probably the best value (or price to performance) Snapdragon X2 system currently, mostly due to the 18-core X2E Extreme simply being an absolute performance MONSTER.

This happened to me yesterday with the daily Bing wallpaper, when it was showing Roy Thomson Hall in Toronto (fun fact, this was used as the UN building in the TV show The Expanse and also as Congressional Hallway in Xmen)

Microsoft recently celebrated a significant milestone for Windows on Arm - my full thoughts on @windowslatest.bsky.social www.windowslatest.com/2026/08/26/m...

Windows on Arm just did what Windows RT couldn't: run 7,000 apps and play games, Microsoft brags
Microsoft says Windows on Arm has passed 7,000 verified apps ahead of RTX Spark's fall launch, with Prism emulation tuned for the new chip.

Fact check on Ford saying our grid is "90%" clean - it is definitely NOT the case. We've been increasingly relying on natural gas power, which is decreasing our total "carbon free" total: live.gridwatch.ca/home-page.html

See where your power comes from, when the grid is clean and when it's not.

@tylerclarkesud.bsky.social I don't think enough digging into the ALPR cameras in Sudbury has been done. Sudbury has one of the highest concentrations of these cameras in Ontario (apparently). I am wondering where this data goes and how it is used: www.reddit.com/r/ontario/co...

📝 Ever wonder what the difference is between the different processors that run Windows Arm devices? Check out my latest article on Arm core design and why it matters: open.substack.com/pub/devinthr...

Windows Arm and Core Design
With all the recent news about new CPU’s coming out that run Windows Arm, it dawned on me that a lot of people don’t actually know the difference between these chips.
