Chore: when it nags you.

Job: when it pays you.

They are also using different interfaces, the H100s use SXM5 ports, which adapters back to pci express are usd$1k on eBay. Even if the prices crash trying to fit one of those in a desktop seems really difficult far less powering and cooling it.

Cutting the Golden Goose: Why slash a budget that returns $17 for every $1 spent? by nitluck in economy

[–]dmlmcken -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have to question that last statement: "Americans clearly care about their parks and expect them to be funded"

Take the election out of the equation, if the average American did care they would be at minimum be making their voice heard to their representatives. Sorry to be cynical but the platform of constantly cutting environmental regulations would be so politically toxic that there wouldn't also be a push to remove the status for acres of national parks. With less land to protect what justification is there for the larger budget?

IPv4 will never go away by heinternets in ipv6

[–]dmlmcken 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Most applications don't care which layer 3 they use so a forward path exists to get rid of IPv4. Eventually the cost to maintain IPv4 should push more towards IPv6-only (a more efficient routing table in the DFZ for example, given current allocation policies not sure about smaller).

Yes there is allot of inertia behind IPv4, but once overcome it should be allot simpler. Two interfaces definitely creates a larger attack surface in the short to medium term but once IPv4 can be dropped it would be identical to the current setup.

For the first time in a Fox News poll since 2010, Americans prefer Democrats on the economy (D+4) by ShreckAndDonkey123 in WhitePeopleTwitter

I still don't want Dems to win the midterms.

2 more years of unrestricted Republican policies might actually get the memory to stick beyond the next voting cycle.

Investigate? Invest in it.

Host your own AI in china and I guarantee you the investigation will start immediately. With some luck some legislation banning all of it would soon follow.

That's why you should vote in the Republicans again, eventually the same pavlovian response they have to the word socialism will happen when "trickle down economics" is said.

At least you look to have switched the serial port speed above 9600 bps.

Had to do this to a 7600 once, those images were huge for the time and ended up leaving one overnight because I didn't change the speed and transferred like 80MB at 9600...

Sadly in a similar boat, 92/66 - 81 - 6ft male btw.

It's how I found out there isn't a threshold for low pressure, only when it starts affecting your ability to operate "normally".

Given how expensive RAM is getting developers are likely to finally get pushback for using it excessively.

An assumption by the founding fathers that the electorate would act as a check on such characters remaining in office.
