Supposedly Mossad just built up factories also building non-exploding devices, and just included the extras on specific orders - so I guess they checked for each order if the guy ordering had "Hesbollah head of sourcing" in his linkedin profile, or something like that.

One thing I find very amusing about this is that AMD used to have a reputation for pulling too much power and running hot for years (before zen and bulldozer, when they had otherwise competetive CPUs). And now intel has been struggling with this for years - while AMD increases performance and power efficiency with each generation.

A lot of the Zen based APUs don't support ECC. The next thing is if it supports registered or unregistered modules - everything up to threadripper is unregistered (though I think some of the pro parts are registered), Epycs are registered.

That makes a huge difference in how much RAM you can add, and how much you pay for it.

And for the family friendly aspect nothing after the wii beat it.

The multiplayer games there are just better than something like the switch offers, and the controllers are a good size and weight for emulating whatever they are representing in games. Stuff like tennis with the tiny light switch controllers just feels wrong.

You're describing Wayland running into issues due to overall high system load, and not been given enough scheduler time to accept messages?

edit: This issue? https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland/-/issues/159 - didn't find anything else matching the description, and personally have never seen that, both on my low specs notebook or my workstation, which probably counts as higher spec.

There is news for internal consumption, and news for a global audience. Both is available via internet nowadays - there's pretty much no local newspaper without internet presence nowadays.

It's getting better. I recently removed a bunch of AIX and Solaris specific dotfiles/directories that haven't been of use for years.

The 192.168.x.x IP range doesn't allow for subnet masks greater than 255.255.255.0

This is nonsense. In that space you get a /16, and you can do with it whatever you want.

I think that amount is way too high. Nowadays I could afford it without problems, but a few years back spending some time in hospital would've messed up my budget.

I might be fine with paying for elective procedures - but hospital stays for other reasons should be covered by healthcare.

I switched from an IBM M13 to a Tex Shinobi with box navy a few months ago. It is not as good as buckling spring, but good enough - and the more compact keyboard, full programmability and the better trackpoint make up for it.

I initially tried Cherry MX Blues, but they're horrible. Never understood the Cherry hype in the 90s, and still don't understand it now.

"She's a beauty"

I find it funny that a bunch of the simple basics are nowadays considered complicated. I've been doing my own mail and DNS for over two decades now, and don't see a reason for stopping. It is pretty low maintenance, and generally less headache than having someone else do it.
