And definitely!

If I were to hazard a guess, they’re reusing a mobile board design for this somewhat and at least in mobile applications socketed dimms draw 30-50% more juice than soldered. It could also be the npu or gpu requiring the 5-10% extra memory bandwidth they get from being soldered. I do agree that I don’t think it was worth the trade offs from a consumer perspective, but framework seems to generally make good choices so I’m thinking there must’ve been some outside pressure at play affecting the financials of the project or something.

Can we get it to 99?!

I’d avoid mint if you have an nvidia card or newer hardware. They ship older more “stable” versions of systems packages and kernels that just make it a pain. You may try something with built in nvidia support like PopOs or Catchy.

Since you clearly plan on keeping this equipment for the long-term, you may be better served by a newer lower power option that will likely be more performant for less long term cost.

There are plenty of complaints to lob at Americans, but… Hideo isn’t American, and plenty of countries especially those that have mandatory enlistment (Norway, Sweden, etc) will have a populace that is familiar with the operation, maintenance, and use of firearms to a greater extent than your average American… So get your head out of your 🍑?

Mood. Best thing to do would be to email steams suggestion mailbox with the request. It likely won’t have any effect, but if enough of us do it they’ll at least know.

During one of the most profitable years on record… Even if it weren’t, it’d be workers paying for the failure of management.

Bringing non-disposable technology to China is a mistake in most circumstances.

Zero tier. I went tailscale originally, and they’re good, but their mdns support doesn’t exist and several services rely on it. (For me, the showstopper was time machine backups)

Wikipedia does a half decent job, we should probably adopt a model of their policies for open source code intended to be shared in such ways.

The admins finally decided to cash in their .sleep() bonus in the name of the greater good.

About to be 6.0000001% when my Kubuntu download finishes. I’m finally taking the dive boys, linux on main here we go.

The year of the linux phone is almost upon us…

Tape drives will be expensive and likely beyond overkill for this. I’d recommend you grab a blue ray DVD writer and use that instead. The discs are generally shelf stable for 25 years and hold about 50-128GB depending on the disc. Duplicates are cheap, storage is relatively easy, and it doesn’t require constant upkeep/power like a hard drive would. Downsides? They just stopped making the discs, so they’ll grow in cost over time. That’s about it that I can think of.

To be fair to bottles, they cité that even their hosting costs are usually barely covered, so I imagine it’s running on a pretty lean/Foss dev budget already.

Depends on the drive too, I have some insanely loud Ironwolf drives and you would never guess they’re from the same manufacturer as my practically silent Exos X18s.

I think of it as a lab because it’s my sandbox for me to do crazy server stuff at home that I’d never do on my production network at work, and I think that’s why the name stuck, because back when systems were expensive as heck it was pretty much just us sysadmin guys hauling home old gear to mess with.

My bad. I misread your previous post, specifically around “I agree with the other guy”. That being said, anyone with a functional device that can compute any amount of monero hashes is a proven target, granted, not specifically.

People like you in this industry are legitimately the reason botnets and significant compromise still exists. “You don’t need to be a genius to do all this additional config to make this thing I’m referring to as secure, secure.” Do you even read your own writings before you hit post? Also your final argument is so slathered in whataboutism I can’t even. Yes, any internet connectivity is going to be less secure than an air gap, but when you’re advising implementations you should keep security posture and best practices in mind. What you’re speaking on is more complex than any one person’s understanding of it due to significant layers of abstraction. Exhibit a? Ssh is not a codebase. It’s a network protocol. The codebase is literally different depending on implementation yet you continue to talk about it as if it’s a single piece of software that has been reviewed and like all ssh shares the same vulns but the software is entirely different depending on who implemented it so you have no real clue what you’re talking about and it’s actually sad people will be misled by your nonsense and false bravado.
