I do NOT like automatic updates when they happen during work hours,

Windows doesn’t automatically update during work hours. By default it tries to figure out when you use your computer, and it won’t reboot during those hours. You can manually configure it too.

Yeah. It’s not that hard.

I just did with that.

Also what are you typing blindly where punctuation actually matters?

I can blindly type with an on screen keyboard, it’s not that hard. What’s wrong with your phone where taps aren’t registering? And poor text prediction would be the same on physical vs on screen KB.

My old Pantrch Duo would frequently ignore physical key presses where it tactically clicked, but failed to actually bottom out enough to register. And I have that issue all the time with mechanical keyboards where the tactile bump happens before the key actually gets registered. Not an issue for typing, but for gaming I do it often.

Never mind that it’s now so much more expensive to host things there vs yourself.

It’s stinky and smelly and smells bad.

Well it is “semi modular” It’s just semi in the worst way.

16GB of DDR5-6400 BGA RAM soldered to the mainboard, and a SODIMM slot

But why? Just use LPCAMM

Consumer grade mobos with 10 gig onboard nics have some MASSIVE heatsinks for them to keep them passive.

I swear it feels like half the heatsinking on my mobo is for the network card and not the VRM or chipset.

This is for servers, not desktops, so noise isn’t much of an issue.

Buuut I’m curious why it has the fan isntead of a long heatsink. Maybe planning for homelab users in about ~10 years?

Also I’d just like to say: Fuck Broadcom. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

Killing the 5800x3d was the dumbest thing. If it was still made it’d be the killer value CPU. I’m so glad I bought mine when I did.

As expected, the i5-9500K doesn’t even exist, and despite recommending 12 GB of VRAM (video RAM), the publishers also recommended an RTX 3060 Ti, which strictly came with only 8 GB of VRAM. Not to mention the game also required 8 GB of VRAM at a minimum, but then also required a GTX 1660, which only has 6 GB of VRAM.

SK 8xing production is impressive. I know open ai bought ~40% of microns memory production. So increasing production by only 20% is pretty low. But like you said they had horribly low (for them) ram prices for a few years so they’re just trying to avoid that.

Sk must be banking on Micron not matching the spike.

That’s basically what like 90% of mobile games are if you don’t pay.

Windows 10 betas didn’t even come out until like 2014 so KDE beats them.

It’s been trending the opposite for a while. Intel has mostly stolen AMD’s market share. And AMD has largely gone “me too!” to Nvidia raking customers over the coal.

It’s a security thing to have that warning. You’re not supposed to be able to bypass it for a reason.

If you don’t have the warning you can just relock the bootloader, but updates probably won’t work.

Only one affected AMD, forget which. But Intel knew about the vulnerabilities, but chose not to fix the hardware ahead of their release.

The atom is only gone in name. It’s now just “intel processor”. The N100 CPUs are in a ton of neat machines. And the E cores of Intel CPUs are just Atom cores.

Windows 8 also had to run on atom CPUs with dire CPU performance and even more dire memory configs. So even once it was booted it needed to be relatively slim and quick. I actually preferred it at the time because it was faster than 7.

Relock the bootloader.
