Chris Sawyer has not been involved in TTD for quite some time, and any remaining rights he had were bought out officially in 2024. Chris Sawyer was last involved in the IP when it was rugpulled out from under him in the early 2000s and sent

Not only should you get rid of them, but also they are a fire hazard. Also, do not accidentally plug surge protectors into each other, metal oxide varistors can star fires _without_ meaningful surge conditions when you do so. I prefer to bu

Its mixed. Some of it really is Covid toilet paper behavior. Datacenter customers, for example, have repair parts on hand; boxes of harddrives/ssds waiting to be put in, boxes of consumable parts, DIMMs waiting to replace ones that wen

As far as I know, the current lineup is PNY still makes the workstation cards, possibly also the x16 server cards, but Foxconn is doing the Blackwell SBCs and MXMs, and those SBCs are a pretty big chunk of Nvidia's income right now.

I'm glad Kioxia (formerly Toshiba) have been able to do that. However, I also know they've been having problems meeting demand for quite some time, and haven't been able to scale up nearly as fast as the big three have. There

There is no such thing as "consumer grade RAM". Servers still take DIMMs, ECC DIMMs just has more chips on it (previously 9 instead of 8, but now 10 instead of 8 as of DDR5; you'll see some DDR5 DIMMs with 5 instead of 4 beca

They can trade capacity, but they generally aren't. The huge storage-only fabs owned by Samsung and Micron do runs that go for 9 months to 12 months. Flash chips haven't been speculated on nearly as hard, and are suffering from th

Not true. Apple made a non-technological and purely artificial and somewhat capricious decision to not sell a product that was worthy of the Apple brand. They continue down this road because next quarter is more important than next year, an

Ghostty did not submit their terminfo to the database until the Dec 30th 2025 release of ncurses 6.6. Any distro older than this does not include Ghostty by default. Alacritty was added in the Feb 2020 release, as well as Kitty. Wezterm was

Yes, its a nightmare because Android is becoming more and more like iOS: anything that the user used to be able to do... they can no longer do. Android phone manufacturers want $1200 for something that is a toy, just like the Apple iToys. N

It sounds like you simply forgot to update your terminfo on your remote system. You must do this if your chosen terminal requires settings that are not compatible with "xterm-256color". Alacritty, kitty, and wezterm also require t

Intel wanted to rip OpenFirmware off and wanted to EEE it without paying lip service to Sun et al. It isn't an accident that both, for example, use Forth.

I don't think this compiler makes the argument it thinks it does: the LLMs are able to statistically reproduce its source material, and you cannot copyright things that were not produced by a human hand, and you cannot copyright things
