Not really. Mine have been known as "basketball" and "football" since high school.Remember when we called our knees “left” and “right”?
Not “good” and “bad”?
When did you move to Texas?Over the last few months Amazon delivery has steadily degraded to the point I simply cannot hold any expectations.
This was supposed to be delivered today...

Coconuts are mammals because they have fur and produce milk.
Discuss.
(and I hear they are migratory)
But what if two swallows carried one between them, tied with a bit of creeper?Even if one accepts your premises, they do not give live birth, so the answer is no.
And I don't think coconuts would qualify as monotremes either, just to head that one off, in case you've gotten into the bourbon tonight. ;]
My my, we must be particularly bored tonight.... though that covers the migratory part in cases where the trees are land bound, I suppose, though I think salt water inundation may be part of their germination process.But what if two swallows carried one between them, tied with a bit of creeper?

They might be planning to use on-module voltage step-down, so that they can power with higher voltage and lower current.2 Kilowatt Xeons? Woof! Considering core voltages are likely well under 1 volt that implies over TWO THOUSAND AMPERES of current which given package pin current limits implies thousands of power and ground pins alongside the logic pins...

At these kinds of powers, coupling to the motherboard for cooling is an irrelevant nit. As the linked story mentions, they are looking at liquid cooling solutions. Sounds like they are looking to reinvent the IBM TCM (thermal conduction module) that was introduced in the 1980's with the 3080 series of processors.Considering the amount of silicon used today and sprawled around CPU sockets with massive heat sinks to feed a processor with a max TDP of a mere 253 Watts (eg: the flagship Intel Core i9-14900KS running XMP settings) fitting a 2000 Watt solution atop a module of any current convention would present some major cooling challenges in its own right and even more difficult as there's no thermal coupling to the motherboard.
As a one time chip and motherboard designer who had to deal with the likes of Alpha processors I don't see that as a viable solution, but we'll see...
Cheers!
One of my first assignments at IBM was working in early 308x development back in 1977, three years before it was announced.At these kinds of powers, coupling to the motherboard for cooling is an irrelevant nit.

I used to work in chip packaging development, so am quite familiar with the challenges of handling the heat from a high power module.

So why do you waste our time linking to that site?Another reason I don't waste my time on that site...
just wait til I overclock that suckerConsidering the amount of silicon used today and sprawled around CPU sockets with massive heat sinks to feed a processor with a max TDP of a mere 253 Watts (eg: the flagship Intel Core i9-14900KS running XMP settings) fitting a 2000 Watt solution atop a module of any current convention would present some major cooling challenges in its own right and even more difficult as there's no thermal coupling to the motherboard.

I don't buy beer very often so I'm usually oblivious to or at least well behind trends, but is this actually a thing now?

I'm not surprised. The malt bill is a rounding error compared to the hop additions. And more malt means more hops which means MOAR FLAVOR which means HUGE SALES NUMBERS!I don't buy beer very often so I'm usually oblivious to or at least well behind trends, but is this actually a thing now?

Hm. None of my beers or yours are on the list. Must be a partial list.
