  • Look how much any maintenance/repairs costs now. It may be true.

  • What are good harddrives to use with servers
  • ZFS or BTRF mirror will know which side is at fault due to checksums. I'm more concern about simultaneous falures of two disks. Rebuilding of a RAID puts lots of pressure on remaining disks, so probability that remaining one dies too is much higher. with RAID6 3 disks need to die to lost date, which is less likely but not impossible.

  • What are good harddrives to use with servers
  • I would not trust these kind of dives in the mirror. IMHO RAID6 is the only way.

  • In a void of detail, two reports attempt to spell the challenge for Peter Dutton to go nuclear
  • Yeh, just push all costs of using "classic" green generation to existing generation and for sure it will came cheapest. add transmission, over-provioning, and storage cost to it and picture is not that rosy. Go and find that that report, it is just bit of shit.

  • Paid SSL vs Letsencrypt
  • LE only certify your domain name, you may want to put more (like company name) to cert and it is where classic certs providers come to help.

  • Questions on sexuality and gender have been cut from the 2026 census. Why are LGBTQI+ people saying it's an omission?
  • Why it should be there? I guess at this time no one give a f%&k about someones sexual orientation in Australia. And I fail to see any reason to register it for healthcare/taxation or similar purpose. IMHO questions of nationality should go away too.

  • Data HDD with SSD catch drive
  • ZFS ZIL will not help in this case.

  • Usually it can be solved by talking to hotel stuff. you are paying for that service and can expect it be suitable for any legal use.

  • AMD won't patch all chips affected by severe data theft vulnerability — Ryzen 3000, 2000, and 1000 will not get patched for 'Sinkclose'
  • Nope. You do not need physical access for it, just root access. and you HW is compromised with only means to recover it is SPI flashing of CPU.

  • "Question about upgrading GPUs" update
  • Check that MB can provide enough power for 5800X3D. From my top of my head 3600 is 65W and 5800X3D is 125W. You will not be able to run it on entry level MBs

  • AMD won't patch all chips affected by severe data theft vulnerability — Ryzen 3000, 2000, and 1000 will not get patched for 'Sinkclose'
  • You need to be a root to exploit it, but if it get exploited any way to get rid of it is to throw MB to trash.

  • Here we are - 3600 which was still under manufacture 2-3 years ago are not get patched. Shame on you AMD, if it is true.

    • 6:30 end of plasma
    • 10:30 strange flip , may be reoriented before second dive to atmosphere.

    • 21:00 drogue cut, main deployed
    • 21:31 mains fully opened
    • 22:58 - attitude control kick in again while under shuts. Why ??
    • 23:59 - landed ( watered?)

    CPU with Quick Sync + ECC support at same time?

    I'm looking for hardware for my new NAS. Is there any Intel CPUs which support Quick Sync and ECC memory at same time? And is there any MB which semi officially supports ECC? I usually use AMD CPUs for servers, but any AMD CPU with build-in video does not support ECC.

    And just to prevent ECC holy wars - I need ECC. :-) And adding GPU to AMD system is an option but I'm trying to avoid it.
