I'm trying (mailcow was easy to set up), but it seems all self-hosted solutions do not support snoozing mails. To me this is a must have feature.

It will not be enough. There are essentially 3 leading fabs left: TSMC, Samsung, Intel. Samsung has yield issues, Intel has yield issues, TSMC somehow has no issues. GlobalFoundries has already dropped out of the race. TSMC is selling every

I've built one of these. Good fun, but of course battery life does not match the 7+ years of the original. I think mine lasted close to a year? If I remember correctly the magnetometer was end of life, but not critial to it's oper

My investment in AMD is so small that it seems silly to pay for analyst reports. I don't care about short term, and I have enough faith in my own research to keep believing in a brighter long term. Are there any public resources dissec

My question was more about hard splits: what to do when you have 2 DC's and they lose connectivity between them? The larger pool can still have majority, but the smaller pool can not. Does the smaller pool change membership (because it

Earnings calls never seem to have any hard questions. There was a projections miss a few quarters ago (very rare for amd), and even then the questions feel more like PR. Semi-Custom is indeed PS5 and Xbox. This increase was expected of cour

Something I've wondered about Paxos: does the voting not rely on knowing how many voters there are, to see if there is a majority? That makes it harder to survive a network partition, right?

I don't disagree with you, but when was the last time you ever had to replace a stick of ram?

ECC is supported on the Pro series as well. My home server is running Ryzen 5 Pro 4650G (yay for integrated graphics) and Asrock B550M. I went through the effort of using qvl memory, but actually testing ECC is a bit more difficult. While E

Extended work from home finally pushed me to get diagnosed (ASS + ADHD). I'm now on 2x 10mg methylphenidate (ritalin). It has definitely helped, but after a few weeks I now feel habituated (is that the right word?). Unless something is

Indeed it is. For those wondering, this (official) link has much more info (and the video), that the currently linked blog post. [1] https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/introducing-rtx-30...

True, the new generation offers better price/performance vs the previous generation. Do note that the 3080 is still 2 weeks away (17 sept), 3090 24 sept, 3070 in October. I would consider getting a non-founders edition though, in the p

As always, wait for the benchmarks before deciding to buy (or return). My guess is the performance improvements are the biggest for raytracing, which I personally don't care for. And let's not forget the huge power draw, requiring

I've run this for a while, but Kodi seems to be focused on the "old" way of having your UI run on your TV, whereas I would like to be able to browse through my content on my phone. Yes, Kore can do this, but it feels much mor

It means killing your org to live again. This resonates with me. I've experienced a few "agile transformations". They almost never stuck. The thing that mostly worked was creating teams with a majority of experienced agile

The rubidium does not deplete (it's a closed system), but does settle on the glass. Supposedly you can heat the glass to turn all the rubidium into gas again, giving you theoretically infinite lifetime. I picked up a used PRS-10 on eba

The issue is not a loudly failing disk. If you get read errors, or if the disk is simply offline, it's easy to recalculate the data. But what if you have silent data corruption: a single bit? Even if you have parity (raid5) or a duplic
