So the smart move here for AMD would have been to bin the chips differently according to their tested stability for power usage, like Intel T SKUs. It’s the same chip, but the “X” versions are running at full power (with bios options to turn it down to be more efficient, or aggressively scale power delivery, or what have you), and “E” versions that just always run at lower voltages and currents.

I agree that cutting TDP nearly in half while STILL pulling out a perf gain is remarkable, but also not something most gamers are going to care much about in the context of a desktop system.

Gotcha - I thought you meant you had seen some sort of demo/article/whatever with a proof of concept, but I misunderstood.

That sounds neat. Link?

Tbh those things are great little thin clients to leave near your couch, despite their age

DAS enclosures are super easy to set up. Disk won’t be a big issue if you go that route.

If you’re planning on running containers, tbh I would not. The required virtualization layer (due to macOS being BSD-based) is going to make containers WAY less efficient. You’re better off with a system you can easily slap proxmox (or whatever distro floats your boat) on.

Hey man, I’ve got a hammer, and that process looks a lot like a nail.

And buy back a few billion in stock!

Irrelevant. The heat death of the universe is a constraint unrelated to the premise of the original problem.

kill -9 😎

Seriously, I think Putin has some sort of leverage on him. It’s the only reasonable explanation, imo - particularly considering the reported contact he’s had with him in recent years, especially since the start of the Ukraine war. It’s a bit baffling that the DoD and FBI haven’t started a case against him in that particular context, since he’s been subtly working against official US international policy for a while at this point.

Lmao seriously, these investors have clearly never been on Reddit

In MA, when I worked the polls in 2020, they had a cop on duty in the polling location the whole day to deal with any yahoos like that. To be clear, that’s ALL they’re there for - they’re otherwise completely uninvolved with the administering of the election, and the operation of the polling location. Iirc the guy was just reading a book most of the time. I admit I’m somewhat surprised more jurisdictions don’t have some sort of policy like that. At the same time, I’m sure it would be abused by police forces in some parts of the country.

So they created more vertical space on the case, which would be a perfect spot for a power button - or even more ports… and then didn’t use it.

True to form, if I’m honest.

That aside, I love that they’re getting rid of the idiotic 8GB baseline spec.

Not sure if they’re aware, but the Balmer Peak occurs at a fairly specific BAC/intoxication level, and output quality drops off significantly after that point.

I just want to pick one and stick with it. Like, holy fuck, the switching is awful.

Codeberg is pretty legit

Are you aware that the salute to which you’re referring was used for only a short while before they got rid of it, and that the saying has additional rich history beyond what you’re referring to, both before and after it was used by Ukrainian nationalists in the Second World War, and is generally accepted as a slogan of national pride and resistance to tyranny these days?

Ah, you’ve found the little known but highly useful docker-noncausal extension. As you’ve seen, it can be quite useful for getting around the annoyances of linear time.
