Re: My new (to me) Plex Media Server build
I just thought I would mention it. That board is actually designed to go in a server chassis with lots of air blowing past everything, so the heatsinks are sized accordingly. As long as they aren't getting too hot to touch comfortably, you are probably fine. Possibly on a case like that, you could p...

Re: Nasty Linux systemd root level security bug revealed and patched
Thanks, biodoc! I went ahead and updated all my rigs after the PrimeGrid challenge ended, and it looks to me like the patch was included in those updates. Seems there should be a quick and easy way to get the pertinent info from a command prompt, though.

Re: Nasty Linux systemd root level security bug revealed and patched
I can't figure out how to implement the fix, nor even how to get meaningful version info out of my hosts. pkcheck --version returns only "0.105".

Re: Rosetta python project 1.02 (vbox64) application
The figure I had set was too high, 95% of disk space. I've lowered it a little, and am shopping for a larger SSD. 256GB is too small these days for a 56 thread host. In my case, so much space was consumed that I was unable to log in.

Re: 3-2021 Big Core Options under $2,000.
Well... this probably isn't the proper venue for this discussion. But I will say that utilities that make use of renewables are also deploying energy storage systems as fast as they can, regardless of the energy conversion penalty. That might make plenty of room for dissent against the grid-as-batte...

Re: 3-2021 Big Core Options under $2,000.
For the moment, putting my excess energy back on the grid is the perfect energy storage system Only strictly selfishly speaking. California, for instance, still relies on coal burning (out of state and imported) to fill in when renewables aren't meeting demand. Grid is not actual storage, it only a...

More solar, and more Powerwalls! Might have missed the boat on power wall. Tesla is now only selling them with solar roof systems. They only work when the power goes out too, so it’s pretty expensive for minimal use. Certainly agree with more solar! Well solar doesn't reach its potential without so...

Re: 3-2021 Big Core Options under $2,000.
Since Threadripper is unlocked, theoretically it could be underclocked to be more like an Epyc. I'm not sure if it is any more cost-effective, though. But for my purposes, I will be staying with the AM4 platform for the foreseeable future. Epyc is too much money, and the old Xeons are too power hung...
