LG Display's New FLiPP Manufacturing Process Promises Brighter and Cheaper OLED Panels

These photolithography based manufacturing processes have the potential to displace QD-OLED and WOLED because as a patterned display, they can directly deposit red/green/blue emitters for each subpixel and eliminate the QD and colour filter layers as seen on QD-OLED and WOLED respectively, eliminating one source of inefficiency. A direct view display also has the benefit of being able to use much more efficient green and red emitters only for their respective subpixels, eliminating the inefficient blue emitter for 2/3rd of the subpixels. Presumably the next big innovation will be poled blue emitters that don't die in 100s of hours and/or hyperfluorescence emitters for greater colour purity (and longer lifespan for blue emitters).

G.Skill Class Action - Just Received Settlement

I bought four sticks of their RAM back during COVID. When I saw the post about the class action, I filled out the forms and honestly, totally forgot about it.

Just got back $19 via Zelle for my portion of the suit. Yay. I guess.

Cerebras Overclocks WSE-3 Waferscale Engine To Boost Inference Oomph In “Nexus” CS-4

> In the case of the CS-4 system, the compute wafer is essentially the same, but with twice as much power pumped through it from the wafer packaging and a little more than twice as much cooling to drive the 2X clock speed increase and keep it from letting the magic blue smoke out of the wafer.
