@geerlingguy at some point you're gonna need an 8k monitor to get enough pixels to display all the cores

@geerlingguy

their is not point to display all cores .

@geerlingguy That‘s the only clickbait I tolerate. 😉

@geerlingguy woah

@geerlingguy it’s been a while since I’ve seen any of his videos but what happened to him? This and that wallpaper app thing is not doing his name any good…

@geerlingguy 96 mph in a 35 is almost 3x the speed limit! At least that's where the video cuts, maybe he went even faster.. The wallpaper fiasco was bad enough, but this even surprised me.

@geerlingguy I'm not watching his videos anymore and encourage others to do the same. This also goes for *anyone* putting other people in potential danger as a stunt to get more views.

@geerlingguy I'm glad I didn't pull the trigger on that snapdragon laptop... I'll keep limping along on x86_64 for now 😅

@geerlingguy I thought it was just their license to use their chip-designer software to expand their feature set of their Oryon ARM line.

@geerlingguy you're saying computing as a whole is now doomed?

@geerlingguy absolutely. Is this the one based on open source?

@geerlingguy giggity giggity miniKVM!
I loves 'em. The preciouses.

If you don't have a few of these, GET THEM. Maybe not this exact model as I don't know it, but...

They're bloody amazing, and often cheaper than buying iLO or iDRACs or other RACs. Some fancy schmancy ones even have virtual CD ISO/vhd support!

@geerlingguy i would have huge latency concerns, but it’s cool!

@geerlingguy I’m pretty sure this is the YouTuber equivalent of a Weird Al parody—a sign you’ve made it—except there’s nothing to laugh about.

Bummed you’re dealing with this.

@geerlingguy I wrote this story in 2011. http://www.gregstolze.com/fiction_library/EmilySpeaks.PDF

Update: The CEO of Elecrow responded to my email about the unauthorized voice cloning early this morning.

I will be posting a video with more details and my reaction either tomorrow or Wednesday, but here's a snippet of the email.

@geerlingguy This 1GbE —> 2.5 GbE —> 5 GbE —> … creep reminds me of the days of dial-up modems with frustratingly slow and small speed incremental changes.

@geerlingguy where do i get one!?
EDIT: Never mind, found it.

@geerlingguy will it VGA?

@geerlingguy weird to see yt comments be so hostile abt the open sourcing, I feel like that's a lot better than it being proprietary?

@geerlingguy Agreed. Biz I managed for 3 years was all on-prem with redundancy, a local spares stock and 2 or 4 hr call-out for critical outages not fixable from spares. Cost was reasonable. Our only major outage was an HP battery-backed cache controller that took itself offline due to a spurious cache confidence error. We had the board swapped and the server + storage array back online in 12 mins. My successor moved many systems into Cloud and suffered the uptime and cost consequences.

@geerlingguy "The Cloud" is just someone else's computer. There is no reason your systems can't be as resilient, all a matter of how much effort and money you're willing to put into it.

@geerlingguy

> I think we have a decade of proof that statement is false

In some cases, very literal proof, as in a decade of uptime on a local server.

@geerlingguy
I see @fabpot on the right side...
So left should be Laravel, I guess...

@geerlingguy The fact he's just got his hand in his pocket is peak IDGAF. Frikkin legend.

@geerlingguy Bangladesh needs these like.. last week.

@geerlingguy I've been wanting to get into this in Minneapolis. Love the idea behind it.

@geerlingguy Do you think the mini whip antenna would be good for something low profile, or is it not worth it?

@geerlingguy Well, I mean, Daniel Niels-Sanderson could be behind the commit. Just sayin’.

@geerlingguy impossible!

@geerlingguy 🎯

@geerlingguy you should print a case that you can put 4-6 in and then a rack to hold some drives as well - nice and neat and modular #rackable

@geerlingguy Perfect. Was hoping we could get our hands on this.

I wonder if some clever person with wood working skills could provide some tips on making those wooden pieces. I have a NIB router I am just dying to use but haven't got a clue.

@geerlingguy

Thanks for pointing this out! I remember seeing you refer to this recently and wishing they were available. Now to go home and choose some print colors.

@geerlingguy I'm switching to AT&T fiber next week. I am leaving the one that rhymes with "inity" cos of a recent string of outages, multiple days, several weeks in a row.

Lol, that's a very interesting statement!

@geerlingguy I can't get AT&T fiber on my side of the street. But I can get kale at the market.

My own Pineboards are presently somewhere between Poland and England. Looking forward to being able to use them 😀

@geerlingguy

@geerlingguy those pine board boards are certainly quite interesting.

@geerlingguy you should think about adding to cluster - a scalable cluster - imagine how many you could fit into the tiny rack - 2 discrete clusters each with its own ups - they could probably do some real work and be reliable - you could always sin up some vms to join cluster if you have workload spikes

@geerlingguy
It reminds of Friendly Elec CM3588:

Is Pi 5 enough to utilize NVMe SSDs?

@geerlingguy Dad Joke of the year ... and I feel like it would be ... Terrible.

@geerlingguy From my teammate:

@geerlingguy ham radio > hotdog radio

@geerlingguy Have they used better screws than the ones that other review units have (too soft and extremely prone to stripping)?

Also, does it automatically boot off of the NVMe drive, if installed?

Would be love to see other compute modules come out for it in the future to support faster chips or even more efficient chips depending on use case.

@geerlingguy do not tell @pyoor

@geerlingguy does it work with 100% mainline Linux without special forks and patches for their hardware?
