It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI. -

Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost. -

I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing. -

It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly. -

Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?

Question
cwpenner
So I was browsing through my iTunes folder the other day and I found a special folder located at C:\Users\<Username>\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Automatically Add to iTunes. For fun I copied an mp3 file into it and the file immediately disappeared, but instantly appeared in my iTunes library. The mp3 was relocated to C:\Users\<Username>\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Music and in that folder was organized by Artist/Album/Track Song.mp3.
Anywho, I created a link to the folder in my favorites and now all I have to do is drag my new songs into the folder, provided they are previously tagged, and iTunes will organize them for you. I think this is pretty nifty.
If I just found this out, I'm sure there are a few of those out there that would benefit greatly from this discovery. And to those who already knew about this, why were you holding out?! :p
