![]() ![]() Speaking of Caribbean history, the Dark and Stormy is another ginger beer cocktail, but with Caribbean rum instead of vodka. That about wraps up this lesson on world history. The British are credited with first brewing it hundreds of years ago, but the ginger they used was in large part harvested from the Caribbean islands they colonized, where it was cultivated by enslaved people. It should also be noted that in addition to vodka, ginger beer contributes its own global backstory to the Moscow Mule. Unlike the Russian-American affair, America's relationship with vodka has held strong. The Moscow Mule got very popular among the Hollywood elite, and according to drinks historian David Wondrich, helped America get better acquainted with vodka. (Or perhaps it was the Cock 'n' Bull's bartender, who claimed he made up the recipe to help offload cases of ginger beer that were stacking up his basement.) The Moscow Mule's iconic copper mug came from the Cock 'n' Bull's idea factory as well. One, the bar manager of the Cock 'n' Bull bar in L.A., the other a Smirnoff exec who wanted to sell vodka to Americans. In fact, it happened to be invented the same year that the Soviet Union and the U.S. It's an American cocktail, cooked up in Los Angeles a few years before the Cold War froze up. Wouldn't you know it, the Moscow Mule is not of Russian descent. And yes, that copper mug and stirring rod sure do make things festive, but a Collins glass will work just fine.ĭrink your Moscow Mule while debating matters of geopolitical superpower import, or while chatting about, you know, the book you just finished with your comrades. ![]() (Note that ginger ale is not equal to ginger beer, but what the hell, use in case of extreme emergency.) Squeeze your lime juice fresh. ![]() However, choose a good, strong, not-too-sweet ginger beer, like the one Q Mixers makes. As such, the kind of vodka you use doesn't matter all that much. This cocktail makes use of vodka as God intended it: covering up that acerbic bite with spice and citrus. Stuff your nose into the cup before you sip, and the gingery aroma will shoot up into your brain stem, cutting into the haze of your groggy mind like the edge of a Siberian glacier.

"For example, we noticed that especially in very thermally constrained environments, the Cortex-A700 series is actually a better ROI for sustained workloads," he said. Pradhan said these simulations of core configurations is helping Arm uncover new layouts that can benefit devices of varying requirements. "We are offering many ways for our partners to innovate and, in some cases, reach new, previously unimagined levels of performance," said Saurabh Pradhan, director of product management at Arm. The DynamIQ Shared Unit, or DSU, Arm's glue logic for its CPU core clusters, has, in line with this, been updated to support up to 12 of these latest cores and 16MB of 元 cache. CPU-Z on x86 is a freeware that gathers information on some of the main devices of your system : Processor name and number, codename, process, package. The eight-core arrangement would be aimed at things like smart TVs, and the 12-core at things like laptops and PCs. This multi-threaded boost can range from 12 percent to 23 percent depending on the core arrangement, which is based on performance estimates for the Geekbench 5 MT benchmark.Īnd, according to Arm, if you were to go to eight X3 cores and four A715 cores, multi-threaded workloads would be boosted by 125 percent compared to a processor using one X2 core, three A710 cores, and four A510 cores from last year, based on a simulation of the design.Īnd yes, that's 12 cores versus eight, so a performance boost would be expected. The data on this chart is gathered from user-submitted Geekbench 6 results from the Geekbench Browser. Testing Methodology Plugged In results were tested with the charger connected to a wall outlet for best performance. You can use this benchmark data to get an idea of the CPU performance to expect from a particular laptop / mobile processor. When the X3, A715, and A510 cores are combined in a processor, Arm said, they can can provide double-digit increases in multi-threaded performance compared to configurations using last year's X2, A710, and A510 cores.

I highlighted one sentence because it was a big rumor yesterday and probably contributed to some of the US futures market weakness, but apparently, it's not true.or so they're saying out loud. In years past, selling wheat to the Indian government was a nice side piece for US/Canadian sellers, but India had been able to produce their needs well enough for a while that the business fell away. In order to backfill the lack of rice, they're courting wheat imports. India is the largest exporter of rice (or at least certain varieties) clamps down on outgoing goods it creates a minor shockwave. We're fortunate to have several kinds of domestic supply, and easy access to others from anywhere else we choose, but the peoples of countries with less means who fry a high percentage of their foodstuffs (like many Asian and Pacific Rim nations) spend a tremendous amount of their income on oil.and rice/other goods. Vegetable oil is a major world foodstuff. I didn't say much about the next two topics recently because I wanted to see what would develop first. What else might it mean? The bit above could be wrong, and it could be a showing of strength by the speculators that even something as seemingly bullish as Ukraine attacking a Russian ship at a port that handles some 60% of the grain exports and a high level of oil (remember the oil sentence at the opening?), that it's only worth a couple of cents of upward trading after the dust settles.
