Why not replace the dc-dc converter? Seems like a much simpler fix.

When will it be commercially available though? Supposedly Seagate has had 30TB drives out for the better part of a year, but I can’t find anything larger than 24TB actually available for purchase.

Clockwise=lockwise

Most hardrives live in servers, as part of storage volumes where IO can be optimised well beyond the capability of a single disk.

For the boot disk on my workstation I am absolutely using an SSD, but for the hundreds of terabytes of largely static data that I need to keep archived? Spinning disks all the way. Not only to SSDs need to match on price, but they also have a long way to come in terms of longevity.

We already did this unintentionally during our natural evolution. All we really got out of it were a group of humans who can run slightly faster on average, and a group of humans who can drink milk as adults without shitting themselves.

I imagine the timeframe to get any noticable results would be in the thousands of years, even with deliberate selection for specific genes.

Linux, most likely.

The trick is to justify buying one for your business, and then using it yourself after hours.

As a business asset, it has paid for itself fivefold in less than a year. As an employee of said business, i have unlimited access to a machine that I could never personally justify the expense of.

Starts off as a caving blog then pivots into a mystery that keeps you wondering if it was real.

If it helps, 80% of the work i do when wearing my sysadmin hat is just ensuring that all of our systems are communicating properly.

I did like one semester of computer science, does that count?

Honestly I just google shit until I understand it. Linux has great documention, and where it fails you can just read the source code.

I save all of my end of life spools for prints that I’m going to be on hand to supervise, then just spend the day hopping up to swap filaments every half hour or so as each one runs out.

Care to elaborate? Every cloud “solution” I’ve been pitched is just a super expensive way to bottleck everything at the router.

What is your graphics setup? I’ve seen similar weirdness on laptops with hybrid graphics, where attempts to use the cpu/integrated graphics cause failures. If you have such a setup, can you test what happens after putting it into “performance” mode in the os power settings, and ideally forcing discrete gpu only as a bios level?

Built off it, rather than copied it. That’s par for the course in most science.

Hmm, I probably have that much distributed across my network… maybe I should look into some way of distributing it across multiple gpu.

Frak, just counted and I only have 270gb installed. Approx 40gb more if I install some of the deprecated cards in any spare pcie slots i can find.

Are we all just gonna ignore the semi-transparent power pole in front of the sign?

I forget, did Pegasus end up disabling their networking after they made their initial escape? I don’t remember it being mentioned, but it makes for quite a plot hole if they continued on as normal.

Did she name her car “dick turpin”?

Now look at an x-ray of an abdomen with a metallic object in it. Seems pretty plausible thata person could look at an x-ray containing a bunch of metal and approximate how much of it there is.

smartmontools has some good functionality for interfacing with SMART via usb bridges that do not provide native functionality.
