Reminds me of a group of friends that played call of duty together in the CoD4/WaW days. Individually we were mid-tier players on average. As a group, we completely dominated. We all knew each other's strengths, weaknesses, and general tactics. There was often no need to communicate specifics because we knew where each other would be and what we were doing.

We were always giddy when we got matched with a clan, especially if they were a mouthy crew.

I spend most of my time in the path of hurricanes, we lose power 5-10x per year for between 1 to 8 hrs on average.

When we lose power the battery backup for the modem takes over(15hrs runtime), and we have other portable batteries to recharge our phones multiple times.

If things get really bad, we can pull out the camping solar panels and keep the phones charged. At that point, I expect the fiber will be down anyways and cell service is probably all that would be available.

Works quite well. I can usually still complete my work day on my laptop without issue.

VRAM is such a small portion of the BOM that they could double it, keep the same margins, and the MSRP would only increase by like $300.

The problem isn't margin on the consumer cards, the problem is competing with their even higher margin workstation cards.

Thing is AMD can't have Nvidia margins because nobody supports them - take a hit for a generation on pro sales - get market/mind share and then you have a chance to play the same game.

Sadly, you can drop "them" from your statement and its accuracy stays about the same.

Unfortunately, a side effect of the devaluation of the yen is that food quality at conbinis has decreased as they try to maintain price points. I recently spent a few weeks in Tokyo and there was noticeable difference in quality versus a few years ago.

This is really fun. A usability note, at least on Safari on iOS, you have to put the protocol for a web page to load. If you just put www.cnn.com without the https, it never loads.

Linux intentionally has an unstable driver ABI in part to make life a living hell for vendors who don't want to upstream their drivers.

Windows on the other hand maintains a very stable interface and has no desire to maintain vendor drivers.

Anecdotal, but I know the guys behind this. They're about as much free speech absolutists as you'll find. They're not going to remove anything unless it presents a large legal problem for them not to.

Additionally unless it's changed in the last six years, you should pretend ZFS dedupe doesn't exist.

Not in a stable release yet, but check out https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/discussions/15896 if you have a need for that.

I would agree with that. Given the history of the Oxide team, they chose what they viewed was the best technology for THEM, as maintainers. The rest is mostly justification of that.

That's just fine, as long as they're not choosing a clearly inferior long term option. The technically superior solution is not always the right solution for your organization given the priorities and capabilities of your team, and that's just fine! (I have no opinion on KVM vs bhyve, I don't know either deep enough to form one. I'm talking in general.)
