The bubble is propped up by governments.
They don’t need “as good as an employee but faster”. They just need “faster”, so they can process gathered data on an enormous scale to filter out the “potentially good” from the “not worth looking at”.
Then they use employees to actually assess the “potentially good” data.
Seriously, intelligence agencies don’t need “good ai”, they just need “good enough ai”.
And they have that already.
No idea. Haven’t started digging into it yet
TIDALs continued awesomeness suggests suitable alternatives.
Spotify pays Joe Rogan how much? And pays artists how little?
TIDAL does music.
I changed a few years ago, and all I miss are the integrations.
I’m lucky that I have decent speakers & dac on my desktop, and decent IEMs. So I can listen to music where I want.
But I can’t buy a “tidal speaker” in the way I could buy a “Spotify speaker”.
But I’m arrogantly confident enough to waste some money solving this with home assistant, some rpi/nucs, and some speakers. I feel I don’t need (I actually don’t want a vendor locked in) “just works” solution, and I’m happy rolling my own.
They are only open sourcing the spaghetti that sticks to the wall.
Carefully curated and redacted/obscured/replaced where appropriate.
Probably removing hard coded rules like “always show musk tweets” and stuff like that
Yeh, ventoy takes an extra step (but ventoy is itself an extra step): find the iso from a legit source instead of using the media creation tool, install software to edit iso, add unattended.xml to the iso, plop iso on ventoy drive.
Anyone playing around with or working with Linux/windows:
Check out ventoy. I think they’ve solved their issues of binary blobs and it is so useful.
Create a Ventoy usb drive. Drag any and all OS ISOs onto the USB stick. Boot from the USB, choose which ISO to actually boot.
Want to switch flavours of live Linux (or try another installer)? Boot from usb, choose different ISO.
Absolutely fantastic software
Yeh, the 16/32 in the screenshot and that 2 sticks are dead suggests they have 4x 8gb sticks, and lends credence that one channel is being messed with.
They said they tested the ram on multiple systems, but they might have just thrown both “dead” sticks in there at the same time - leading to a similar failure mode as they are both on the same channel.
I bet 1 stick is dead, and they could probably get away with 24gb of ram in a 3/2 channel distribution
Maybe 1 is causing the other to fail?
Could try the sticks individually.
It is strange that 2 sticks fail at the same time. It smells like a symptom instead of the root issue.
FCKGW?
It’s not that difficult, is it?
I mean, it’s not like running a program on an already installed windows, or using the windows 11 installer to install from windows.
Otherwise, it’s the basic steps for installing any OS except for creating the unattended.xml file.
Use the media creation tool to create install media on a USB drive, work through the generator (Google what you need to), drop the resulting XML onto the drive, reboot from USB and install as normal.
Use an answer file with W11 Pro.

I haven’t noticed any AI bullshit, but I might be being protected by EU laws at the moment.
While true, quantity of poop particles also matters.
Your body can fight off loads of bacteria. But once it gets to an infection point, it can’t keep up and you become ill.
So yeh, poop is everywhere. As long as it’s small amounts, it’s fine.
Battle Royale.
Pretty sure it was the first foreign language film I’ve watched.
Omg, even the thing that is enshittifying everything is now being enshittified itself.
Pretty much any mikrotik is a fantastic piece of kit to have.
It is so unbelievably versatile.
I love the various mikrotik routers, switches and APs I have. I use them all the time for little ad-hoc networks and projects and stuff.
You will learn a lot about networking when using them.
But Unifi is a hell of a lot easier to use, and I have not found anything I can’t do on unifi (but I don’t do bgp, mlag, etc at home).
Mine is named “Searching…”
It’s caught a few friends out
Pretty sure all ram manufacturers are Korean? I guess China puts chips on PCBs, maybe? But South Korea has the knowledge .
And it had met domestic demand. RAM prices have been acceptable for many many years.
It’s the AI sector that is inflating demand (maybe by circular investment and contracts).
So, I don’t see anyone investing 10 years into the future to make ddr6 ram where their business plan relies on current trends.
It must take so much R&D to achieve anything remotely comparable to what Samsung, Micron (/Crucial… RIP) and SK Hynix can produce.
Fingers crossed they can either undercut the 3(now 2) big producers, which is doubtful. But hopefully they can help reduce the maximum price that decent memory can inflate to. Because at some point a medium sized customer is gonna get fed up of the Samsung/micron/skHynix bullshit, and custom order the ram they need, and such a smaller producer will provide a much better service for a similar price
Only for multi CPU mobos (and that would be pinning a thread to a CPU/core with NUMA enabled where a task accessed local ram instead of all system ram). Even then, I think all ram would run at the lowest frequency.
I’ve never mixed CPUs and RAM speeds. I’ve only ever worked on systems with matching CPUs and ram modules.
I think the hardware cost and software complexity to achieve this is beyond the cost of “more ram” or “faster storage (for faster swap)”
Spoiler alert: it’s just yaml
