Didn’t .net core depreciate the older .net framework stuff, and by extension Mono, and the target you should be looking at going forward is the new .net core stuff?
(I’m more a janitor than a mechanic, so my understanding of what framework is or isn’t dead this week is probably lacking, but I recall seeing an awful lot of chatter going on about that.)
Speed running Wii Sports?
Huh.
(I have probably 50 copies because I kept ending up with more and more due to buying game lots at estate sales and garage sales and such.)
Wii games worth something?
Maybe I’ll be able to retire on my collection of Wii Sports disks.
Have you been to a theater recently? You only wish it was silent.
Idk when it started but its fine to talk through the whole movie or fuck with your phone volume turned on now.
Yeah, I was looking at what would break moving to Linux, and that came up in the list of shit.
I was confused as to why they didn’t implement that in Linux, since I mean, how hard could it be?
But alas, it’s not, and the official position is ‘we’re not going to’ so there has to be some technical reason.
On Linux? There’s no iGPU support in Resolve so that’s just uh, not going to work.
That’s a Windows-only feature for whatever reason, so uh, sorry?
Depends on your threat model and actual realistic concerns.
Ultimately, if it comes down to it, there’s very little you can do that’s failsafe and 100% guaranteed: the provider has access to your disk, all data in your instances RAM (including encryption keys), and can watch your processes execute in real time and see even the specific instructions your vCPU is executing.
Don’t put illegal shit on hardware you do not physically own and have physical control over, and encrypt everything else but like, if the value of your shit is high enough, you’re fucked if you’re using someone else’s computer.
off-brand Super Soakers until they get frustrated
I’m now imagining the leaders of the Andromeda Initiative shopping for guns at the Citadel branch of Temu, which is Commander Shepherd’s least favorite store.
Oof, and a minecraft server is also constantly writing the world state to disk which will 1000% kill a sd card in a hurry.
Well, shit. This may have led me down a useful path.
So not voltage exactly, but load line calibration adjustments looks like it very much MAY have resolved the issue.
Or at least, I’ve been whacking at it with all the workloads that were unstable and crashing and so far it hasn’t misbehaved at all.
I’ll second that: every single issue I’ve had with any of the Pis that are around here have all been bad sd cards.
They’re useful if you’re using an OS that doesn’t ever write to them, but as soon as you’re using a full Linux distro or running software that is writing logs or data, they’re going to fail and probably sooner than later and, of course, at the most annoying time possible because it’s a computer and that’s their thing.
Yeah the goofy thing is it pass any length of memtest I care to toss at it, and will happily run prime95 forever with zero issues.
And then immediately have apps crash or freeze or otherwise misbehave.
Like, something is wrong, but nothing is actively broken, which is just… annoying, heh.
The MSI board has been a source of less than enjoyable usage, but it’s almost exclusively tied to the super super long POST times and the fact that, sometimes, it just… doesn’t. Hard to know if the 90+ second wait is the normal 90 second wait, or if it’s actually not going to turn on for some reason.
It’s fine other that little quirk, at least as far as I can tell.
Yeah I’m on my 2nd motherboard due to the first having issues where it just plain wouldn’t post 75% of the time, and this 7700x is just… sporadically unreliable.
It won’t fail ANY kind of stress test I throw at it, but will then have notepad crashing repeatedly. I’m confused because it makes SO no sense and tired of dealing with it and it’s on it’s way to replacement as soon as there’s benchmarks out for the Core Ultra stuff, and whatever Tim Apple does with the M4 Macs.
(Not really asking for diagnostic advice, as I’ve spent most of the last year diagnosing and replacing pieces and not being able to firmly blame the CPU or the PSU or the Motherboard or whatever since the failures are sporadic, and what doesn’t work seems to change occasionally.)
I was hoping you had figured out a way around that, lol.
My AM5 platform takes so long to boot (and other weirdnesses) that the only nice thing I have to say about it is at least it’s not Intel 13th/14th gen and literally melting.
hibernation is very much back on the menu for me
Uh, does hibernation on whatever you’re using not actually power the system completely off?
I mean, my build does, so it’s not really saving any “boot time”, where by boot I mean the minute or two you spend POSTing.
Sounds like they’re using it on their desktop, so passthru is probably going to be a mess regardless of hypervisor type, since they probably can’t do exclusive access to it.
I made this mistake and hosted my mom’s webpage and email.
Anytime anything happened, she was on the phone to me complaining about how horrible it all was.
Email bounced because she got the address wrong? My fault. All the spam she got? My fault. Images were the wrong size on her webpage? My fault. Typo in a PDF she was sending to a client? My email server must have messed it up.
I could continue, but jesus christ, it was a disaster.
Never, ever, ever, ever host for family members unless you’re willing to put up with that kind of shit, because that’s what always happens.
I like to think of Windows as the Zelda sidekick of OSes.
Non-stop interrupting what you’re doing to tell you something you don’t need to know or care about, and constant “HEY LISTEN” nags for all sorts of shit that you either already figured out, knew about, or don’t give a shit about.
The amusing thing here is that I forgot all about Tuxedo and System 76.
I would suspect that might be exactly the problem: as far as I know, neither of them advertise at all, or if they do, it’s something that’s completely forgettable and somewhere that someone who’s not deeply involved in Linux is ever going to see it.
You’re right that they have the most incentive since they actually sell something you could (theoretically) want to buy, and are probably not living on large enterprise contracts since I don’t think I’ve ever seen hardware from either in the wild.
Linux was the NFT or Blockchain or AI of 1999, so every tech company was jumping on board.
The sales pitch, as I remember, was that you could run your Wordperfect or CorelDraw shit on it, and not need to have Windows to use it and instead could join the future, which was Linux. Though, amusingly, their version of the future was running Windows binaries via Wine on Linux which, eh, okay but…
Of course, nobody used Wordperfect or CorelDraw at that point in history so I’m not entirely sure how that was supposed to sell you on buying not-Word and not-Photoshop.
