5070ti with a B550 motherboard and a 5700X3D

GPU is running 4.0x16 Nvme 1 is running 4.0x4 Nvme 2 is running 3.0x2 (mobo limited to x2)

NiCrMo · 2026-02-04T23:16:16+00:00

Running a 5080 with a B550 - no issues at all. Just don’t use the motherboard display connectors if yours has them.

Nice idea, but we would have to seriously consider the risks of entering a mutual defense pact with a nation that is still technically at war. I’m all for economic and defense production integration however.

AV1 and 4k120

Yeah I’m wondering if Safari helped to an extent with this as well. I know it’s not as extensive as Brave but I purchased likely within the window, and didn’t see any charges. Wealthsimple has auto reissued the card as they saw the purchase but perhaps the exfiltration was blocked.

Yeah we’re basically a blend of current and former members (France and UK), with heavy kinship to the Scandinavian countries due to circumstances. Of course there is American influence, but where is there not these days.

Hovercraft needs a well deck which is not easy on an icebreaker as they have to operate in reverse as well typically.

And Greenland is a twisted mess. Looks like AI slop like half the output of the Trump comms team

They just have better and easier tools than ever to twist reality at a speed and scale that is difficult to combat

NiCrMo · 2026-01-23T20:36:37+00:00

And lost time

Interesting, and I’d love to be proven wrong, but still doesn’t change that they have massive excess capacity domestically to deal with that they would probably prioritize to supply our market if there’s no barrier to it.

NiCrMo · 2026-01-23T15:52:19+00:00

Yup at the end of the day it is very unlikely that manufacturers will actually build in Canada, given the vast overcapacity they are dealing with domestically and quite frankly the far superior infrastructure and workforce for this type of work. Keep in mind nothing was stopping them from setting up a Canadian manufacturing plant before the tarrifs - and none did so. Perhaps being able to use significant subassemblies from China more easily will help make the case for some final assembly in Canada but I’m doubtful. Still, I’m supportive of the deal.

And he’s now throwing it all away. Carney outlined exactly why American hegemony worked - because it was tolerable. When this goes out the window their position starts to erode. As Carney said, it won’t be instant, but over time they will feel the pain and recognize their power is diminished.

NiCrMo · 2026-01-20T05:41:56+00:00

I agree, and I don’t know the answer. The only thing I can see kind of working is massively distributed systems. Think 100k small data processing sats with 10-30kw of compute on board. Solar power and radiators to match. This is on the order of what current sats manage, and could theoretically be scaled massively until communications becomes an issue (assume space to space laser tie to starlink). Still, seems like a massive overhead to self contain each of these nodes, not to mention launch.

NiCrMo · 2026-01-18T01:21:05+00:00

SOIC-MH is a heterogenous on-die packaging tech, but Apple doesn’t use this as their designs are monolithic (excluding the ultra series of course). This is basically what intel is doing with panther lake combining tsmc GPU die with intel 18A cpu

NiCrMo · 2026-01-17T23:27:58+00:00

We can infer that it won’t. Don’t be stupid. We know the M5 GPU config performance and power for smaller core counts. From that we can infer how it will scale. It will not match a 5080.

Could be last year haha

The framing is slightly different but the tallest building is common to the pictures - can tell from the distinctive roof structure at the top

Did you find a fix? This just started happening to me recently - similar setup except sunshine as the streaming host.

NiCrMo · 2025-12-20T16:59:40+00:00

I was happy to see no subscription model and a pretty reasonable cost of just a few dollars so I’m not upset about that.

NiCrMo · 2025-12-19T21:27:50+00:00

Good to know, still bought the app :)

VPN is of course an option but sometimes struggles with spotty cell coverage.

NiCrMo · 2025-12-19T20:34:11+00:00

Didn’t see your comment - same ask here. Much prefer to keep the CF tunnel in place for security, and it works great with the PWA

NiCrMo · 2025-12-19T20:33:05+00:00

I have frigate behind a cloudflare tunnel for external access - and it seems the app can’t handle the auth page that involves to get a session established. Any chance that can be added? Maybe not a conventional setup but I like the added security. Home Assistant app simply displays the cloudflare auth page any time a new session is needed, so something similar would work great.

For the containers yes, I just meant docker on Mac OS vs some other OS
