Intel not selling many Core Ultra 200S CPUs shows we don't need new chips

Look at your PC. Okay, now back to me. Now, back to your PC. And back to me. Your PC isn't me. But you know what it is? An incredible piece of technology with a powerful processor that can do almost anything. Intel seems to be struggling with its new Arrow Lake desktop processors and things aren't looking too bright for its immediate future with all the Windows 11 24H2 woes. Fewer people may also be rushing out to upgrade to the latest (and not so greatest). AMD and Intel CPUs from a few generations back are still more than good enough for modern gaming and software.

The Intel N100 is a surprisingly decent CPU for containerized workloads

Home labs are frequently associated with core-laden server-grade processors, but you'll find plenty of affordable and power-efficient alternatives out there. Often present inside budget-friendly mini-PCs, the Intel N100 is a mobile-tier processor that seems rather underpowered at first glance. And well, it technically is, especially if you're planning to run lots of virtual machines simultaneously. However, it makes for a solid choice when you just want to host your favorite apps inside containers. Both my Aiffro K100 NAS and Radxa X4 SBC are powered by this processor, and while it's not perfect, the Intel N100 can hold its own against multiple containers. Plus, since it's an x86 chip, it's not held back by the same compatibility restrictions of its ARM rivals. This means you can even install Proxmox on your N100 system and expect solid performance on LXC containers (and even Docker containers, assuming you deploy them on a lightweight CLI-based Linux distro).

Wallpapers will never be as cool as Windows Phone 8.1

Windows Phone is a platform that failed for many reasons, most of which can probably be directly attributed to Microsoft. It was an operating system that lacked so many of the essential features of other platforms, it didn't get proper support, and it kept being rebooted leaving loyal fans behind. Also, Live Tiles looked kind of ugly with the solid colors that were prominent during the first half of the life of the platform. You couldn't even set a wallpaper. But that's just the thing. When Microsoft implemented wallpapers in Windows Phone 8.1, it couldn't have been done more perfectly. Microsoft made it so that your wallpaper filled in the tiles, while the full background itself was still blank. There was also a nice parallax effect when you scrolled, and the tiles themselves moved faster than the wallpaper. In a way, the Live Tiles behaved like windows — when you move sideways in front of a window, what's behind the window doesn't appear to move as quickly as the window itself due t
