I’d recommend avoiding spinning disks and going all ssd if possible.

You can get 12v in atx power supplies.

You may want to consider something like a Lenovo tiny with a few large ssds.

Nope, no idea what it’s like today.

Back in the day (mid/late 90’s), there were private ftp servers that required a ratio. Some of these were run by release groups and hard to get on, some were more public. Couriers would download from one site and upload to another to build their ratio and get access to the good sites.

Before people figured out you could connect two ftp servers together directly, you would have to download to your computer and reupload. Most people were on dialup, so that was a non trivial time commitment.

This hasn’t been possible for a long time. Mail servers do not typically reject a bad recipient immediately on the SMTP connection, they accept it and send a bounce email afterwards instead.

I spent a year tracking down random afci circuit breaker trips, until I realized it was my powerline Ethernet. Never again.

Yeah you’re totally right, I forgot about that.

There was flashfxp too but I think that was a fair bit later. Revolutionized being a warez courier.

FileZilla isn’t even that old school, cuteftp was the OG one afaik.

I’ve been doing their giant enterprise model and pretty happy with it so far.

I’d love if they did a ds9 or defiant

Lspci doesn’t care about drivers. What’s lshw say?

Sounds like maybe a fake card or something. Do you also have a 3060 in there?

If you need support outside of business hours, you’re fucked.

Friend had a network misconfig on their side take his server out on Friday night and they didn’t fix it until Monday.

SMB.

The windows nfs implementation sucks, but everything talks SMB.

I used the pen once on my fold when I first got it, and never again.

Take my pen, give me that mm

With the hw MCE errors, it’s probably toast.

You could try reseating or swapping the ram around, if it’s socketed

I have a sliding door that I want to toss a stepper motor on, so my dog can push a button and let himself in / out.

Check out his earlier album Language of my World. It’s fantastic and a lot less poppy than his modern stuff.

Paywall:

Joshua Dean, a former quality auditor at Boeing supplier Spirit AeroSystems and one of the first whistleblowers to allege Spirit leadership had ignored manufacturing defects on the 737 MAX, died Tuesday morning after a struggle with a sudden, fast-spreading infection.

Known as Josh, Dean lived in Wichita, Kan., where Spirit is based. He was 45, had been in good health and was noted for having a healthy lifestyle.

He died after two weeks in critical condition, his aunt Carol Parsons said.

Spirit spokesperson Joe Buccino said: “Our thoughts are with Josh Dean’s family. This sudden loss is stunning news here and for his loved ones.”

Dean had given a deposition in a Spirit shareholder lawsuit and also filed a complaint with the Federal Aviation Administration alleging “serious and gross misconduct by senior quality management of the 737 production line” at Spirit.

Spirit fired Dean in April 2023, and he had filed a complaint with the Department of Labor alleging his termination was in retaliation for raising concerns related to aviation safety.

Parsons said Dean became ill and went to the hospital because he was having trouble breathing just over two weeks ago. He was intubated and developed pneumonia and then a serious bacterial infection, MRSA.

His condition deteriorated rapidly, and he was airlifted from Wichita to a hospital in Oklahoma City, Parsons said. There he was put on an ECMO machine, which circulates and oxygenates a patient’s blood outside the body, taking over heart and lung function when a patient’s organs don’t work on their own.

His mother posted a message Friday on Facebook relating all those details and saying that Dean was “fighting for his life.”

Interesting, thanks for the link!

Well that’s technically correct, but if you’re so dependent on disk cache for system performance that you can’t live without it then you really need to look at doing an upgrade.

When a box swap deaths, it usually struggles to actually fill swap enough to have the kernel still OOM kill it at any point. Generally the massive performance impact of swapping just slows the app down to the point of being useless, along with the entire rest of the box. Disk cache should not be a concern during these abnormal events.

Just turn off swap? You don’t really need it, and the kernel wiil just oom kill without it.
