I do this at work whenever I ssh into a server.

Streams flac. Good supplement to piracy. I might switch to Qobuz sometime, but it works well for now.

It has been getting so bad that even boring regular phone trees will hang up on you if you insist on talking to a human. If it’s ISP / cellular, nowadays I will typically just say I want to cancel my account, and then have cancellations route me to the correct department.

Yeah /u/deadbeef@lemmy.nz kind of understated the problem. They were seeing insane failure rates in data centers like 50%. At this point, any 13th or 14th gen CPU that has experienced any crash or instability should be considered faulty unless you know the cause of the crash is from something else. This isn’t just me saying this, mainstream outlets like Gamers Nexus are saying it.

If you’re a consumer and have one of those CPUs a replacement is probably in your future. And I wonder if Intel even has stock to replace that many at once…

I can’t think of anything like this ever happening on this scale before in computing history.

It was already settled long ago by the Supreme Court, but evangelicals are trying to use private action as a way around it, and I bet they’re hoping that one of several current lawsuits makes its way up to our new and corrupt court.

Oxidation in the fab process. They have simultaneously claimed that oxidation isn’t causing any issues, and that it’s caused only “some” crashing issues. Because they’ve been so wishy washy, it’s probably safe to assume that any 13th or 14th gen CPU that experiences any kind of crash or BSOD is degraded and should be RMA’ed immediately, otherwise you risk getting stuck with a permanently physically degraded CPU.

Intel says they identified the issue sometime in 2023 and fixed the fab process. So the good news is that any newly manufactured Raptor Lake CPU shouldn’t have this issue. The bad news is that Intel won’t give a date range of when the fab issue occurred, or exactly what CPUs it affected (by date code), so really the only choice consumers have at this point (before we get to the inevitable class action lawsuit) is to RMA at the slightest sign of instability.

Intel is also planning to release a microcode update in August, but there’s a lot of doubt that this can be fixed via microcode.

This was affecting 50% of Raptor Lake CPUs in data centers, and it’s become clear via video game telemetry that it has also affected a significant number of consumer chips.

Remember that the burden is on them to show it. But the reality is that when they bring up irrelevant shit like that and try to say that your issue isn’t covered under warranty, it will be on you to “remind” them of that burden, and tell them that what they are trying to do is absolutely fucking illegal under Magnusson-Moss.

I was there in 2017 or 2018 and set up a Shadowsocks server before I went with whatever the latest mitigations were that I could find at the time. My server wasn’t completely blocked, but ended up getting throttled to hell after a few days.

Rail also has a sort of hidden economic benefit in that once you overcome the network effect, it boosts economics on a larger scale. Some people in China thought it was crazy for the government to build high speed rail at the speed and scale that they did, and that it would never compete with flights, etc. And yes, the line all the way out to Xinjiang is not profitable and subsidized by other lines. But the overall benefit to the Chinese economy by connecting all the major cities together can’t be underestimated.

Now that it’s happening, I don’t quite know how to feel.

I certainly don’t feel sorry for Tiktok though.

But the idea isn’t to keep anyone from seeing it. The idea is simply for a lusty image not to be used in academic papers (probably also better that it’s not used in college classes too).

I love pictures of scantily clad women more than almost anyone. But even I can agree that the Lena image sends the wrong message to women joining the field.
