Isn't exactly glowing? End conclusion is this: "At the end of the day, if you are looking for a P-core enabled high-performance mini server or workstation, the Minisforum MS-01 is probably the best out there right now." The r

Minisforum MS-01 is way better since it can function as a router and NAS / server with high uplink. It sports 2x 2.5 gbit, 2x SFP+, and all of these are decent Intel NICs (i226-LM, i226-V, X710). The X710 supports SR-IOV. It also has a

If you only need a few MB anyway I can recommend getting industrial grade (aMLC / SLC cards) from Digikey (Mouser probably has them as well).

I bought ten small microSD cards, 32 GB, for 3 EUR each. Very likely they're counterfeits. But they did come in a small plastic case. You could reuse these for mail. They also all come with an adapter. I have tons of these adapters, us

Another alternative is a small 3.5 mm to Bluetooth device. It allows for any 3.5mm output to use Bluetooth and best of all: already paired and battery is on the module not the headphones themselves. Nice option for (old) cars.

Former SGS3 user here (non-neo, AFAIK). IIRC Samsung only managed one year of upgrades for it. The device had a, for that time, nice AMOLED screen and some flagship features. Custom ROM I ran on it (CM, probably, back in the days, or LOS) r

I dropped my Nokia E71 once. It had a leather pouch. But to use it, it was out of it, and I dropped it from my hands. Screen wasn't cracked. Minor scratch on aluminium. But some of the keys in qwerty row were broken, including the impo

We're only talking 1 gbit ethernet here, so you can have multiple of those ports on PCIe. I have a PCIe card here with two 2.5 gbit on it (don't remember exactly how much it was on Ali but between 20 and 40 EUR) and I can saturate

Yes, it was a SGI application. Probably used in the movie Hackers. There was also a Doom file manager where you'd use BFG to nuke a directory. I only found one for Doom 3 but this also existed with original Doom. Nowadays, BFG is only

Screenshot shows compress to, but text explains it is also decompression. I was downloading OPNsense today, to upload it to my Proxmox install. Couldn't bunzip2 the ISO file on Windows 10, and it would not accept an upload of iso.bz2.

Not to discredit South East Asia but Germany is where the Cold War took place. Especially the second part of it. RAF, for example, was pretty much sponsored by East Germany. So many good series made involving the subject though. Both drama

ZeroTier doesn't use WireGuard under the roof. Tailscale SSH is quite interesting because it'd require Tailscale authentication. So it would segment SSH access off, and makes SSH access also generally available to all clients util
