When this happens to me I mostly assume Linux shutdown automatically because of a critical over temperature event. I've seen it in the logs a few times but I don't usually check anymore.

There's an example of this here https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/502226/how-do-you-find-out-if-a-linux-machine-overheated-before-the-previous-boot-and-w

Mmm I need to try this

Don't forget it was probably someone you know

Idk I just bought a 32GB stick of ddr4 sodimm for $60, adapters are less than $10 each so maybe not if you stay away from scalpers and don't pay attention to ram speed 😅

I was also thinking the soldered CPU motherboard with 8 cores must cost at least 200 but maybe that's a bad assumption and I didn't look it up.

Looks like most of the nibbles are fine. Maybe something happened to the connectors or traces. At least you know it's the ram not your motherboard.

Lol I wasn't just reading a label that said "may contain milk"

I don't understand industrial food production

At least one person at the doj is actually not a traitor

Also, what do you mean by crashes? Kernel panic? Random app death because the oom killer was activated should be expected when pushing the memory limits on Linux.

I'm running 8 and 32 in my T490, seems to work fine. I'm building software and leaking memory like crazy and it's never been weird. I don't see why 8 + 32 would be any different than 8 + 16 other than capacity.

Doesn't the channel balance not matter that much? Like operations can be done in parallel. I always thought the benefits came from reading different things from each ram chip not synchronizing them byte for byte.

No wonder bald eagles needed so much help 😔

I have read 0 facts about this, but I bet that the billion 'investment' is mostly just IP license values.

Me too! Lol what do I need fast ram for anyway? Slow builds are more of a feature every day that goes by.

Even better the more times it's reposted

Mmmm Unix feels

One T490, for everything of course!

Oh and a T61p which I use for nothing, since the screen ribbon cable finally ripped after having a broken hinge for years.

It wouldn't have to treat each pixel independently, and could handle dynamic content while still compressing time changes in the overall brightness. I think there would need to be some special handling of max brightness vs average brightness over time. A nonlinear relationship between Max and average brightness (gamma maaaybe?) could help

They should have kept the coupon racket going instead. it's been working just fine

Check your disk usage with df -h

When my machine gets weird it's always out of disk space.

I assumed the same 😂

I think it shut down because its arm hit the table and activated some sort or failsafe mode (hopefully) 😬
