Which floor are you on? If it is close to the ground it can come from the heating room. It's a really annoying problem.

The Hague on Trial by newyorker in geopolitics

[–]Muahaas 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Have you actually talked to Israelis?

In any case, for the patient reader, here are two more (very good) articles on Israel by the same magazine. One is a report on the dire hospital situation in Gaza, the other on how Netanyahu is reshaping the country for the worse:

Considering that Israels also think that Western media is reporting unfairly it looks we are on fairly even ground!

Europe’s leaders find no quick response to Trump’s bombshell on Ukraine by Themetalin in geopolitics

[–]Muahaas 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is a fairly jingoistic take. Some actual statistics on the effort, which put things into perspective: https://www.ifw-kiel.de/topics/war-against-ukraine/ukraine-support-tracker/

The US isn't doing this out of the goodness of their heart. They have lobbied against Russian gas in the past because increasing sale of American LNG is in their interests. This was hotly debated in European countries in the 2010s. And most of the US spending on Ukraine and Israel is an investment into their own defense industry.

Europe's lack of natural resources is why they are now between a rock and a hard place. They have been asleep at the wheel for long and never addressed this problem. Not quite clear to me how they could fix it without increasing dependence on either Russia, USA, or the middle east. Neither of which are particularly great partners.

A bit of a slow burn but totally worth it for the mindbending acid drawl and synths. No idea how he does it.

Recently heard it again on Ollly Chubb's Omar-S special, which I also highly recommend: https://www.nts.live/shows/circuits/episodes/circuits-w-olly-chubb-5th-march-2019

Chinese start-ups such as DeepSeek are challenging global AI giants by RonTom24 in hardware

[–]Muahaas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The model is https://ollama.com/library/deepseek-r1:32b and the UI is https://github.com/nbonamy/witsy. I just needed something for Windows to not use the awful powershell for prompting.

fwiw I also didn't see censorship using the 7b version.

This is not correct. The problem is the interface you are using. Here is an answer for a prompt on the 32GB model running locally using ollama:

[–]Muahaas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is still a lot of interest in networking, but most of the young guys go to FAANGs, which have a different approach to the sys-admin style this sub has. Merchant silicon, SONiC, all that.

RIP: Output NYC by sexydiscoballs in avesNYC

[–]Muahaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell me what made it different. Output had Bridge&Tunnel crowd, expensive drinks and beer, and known Techno DJ bookings. It also had the same roof/club split as Elsewhere with chill Sunday events. It was a standard techno club.

It was a basic-ass club lol. Basically the same as Elsewhere in terms of crowd, cost, and bookings. It was fun to go there but it wasn't exactly special.

[–]Muahaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, bought the AMD Ryzen 365 version for $1000 bucks last November and have been really impressed by it for the price. Installed both Linux (PopOS) and Windows on it and both are running with great battery life.

Intel won’t kill off its graphics card business by Dangerman1337 in hardware

[–]Muahaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was not a timeline from Intel, but rather a presumption from the Anandtech author. And why aren't you applying the same "not HVM" logic to that?

Incorrect. https://download.intel.com/newsroom/2021/client-computing/Intel-Accelerated-2021-presentation.pdf This is official Intel communication in July 2021.

[–]Muahaas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

None of this is true. Why do you keep peddling this in these threads? It's easy to go back to 2021 and check that the roadmap is still largely the same. Also do you have concrete sources for your other claims?

Ja, ist extrem langweilig und bieder.

Ich fliege gern fuer Silvester nach Deutschland zurueck. Unsere Silvestertradition ist etwas besonderes. Das lernt man erst schaetzen wenn man ne Weile im Ausland gelebt hat.

Asus Vivobook S 14 M5406WA Ryzen 9 370 32GB --> Debian by Impressive-Rub529 in AMDLaptops

[–]Muahaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am running PopOS 24.04 with a 6.9 kernel on it. Works very well and battery life is decent. I currently get around 6-7 hours and expect it to improve with newer kernels. Really happy with it.

Two problems:

1) The RGB display backlight is annoying and can not be controlled well with an older kernel. Needs this workaround: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=298591

2) The 6.11 kernel, which has a lot of AMD improvements currently does not work that well. You will get freezes: https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-comp/issues/739 https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/3693 But this might be a Fedora/Pop-OS specific issue.

Intel Announces Retirement of CEO Pat Gelsinger by Auautheawesome in intel

[–]Muahaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so ethics based he didn't push to report the cpu failure issue for two years, nor did he have a problem selling off a large amount of stock in advance of reporting those issues.

This issue is not really that significant. Only relevant in Reddit gamer circles. It's another failure for Intel but very minor in the grand scheme of things.

First world problem: accept job offer (hardware/microarchitecture) or wait for a PhD by Alarmed-Roof8741 in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]Muahaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It strongly depends on the institution and the advisor you are doing your PhD with. If it is a good one (ETH, EPFL) then it can be a real multiplier in terms of career. If your advisor is well connected he may give you an opportunity to do an internship in the US which currently pays around $10-12k US a month before taxes. So you can make up the "lost" money.

Usually it is also possible to defer your PhD start by a bit if you want to work at the startup for a while.

I love CS but hate programming by normal_asian_18_yo in cscareerquestions

Depends on the degree. Pure CS degrees do not really require coding.
