While I agree with you, it is fair to say RH has an unusual amount of leverage with respect to forcing things. They directly control a lot of big ticket projects, and have powerful leadership positions in others. They can coordinate major

I'd take a rugged HT with a sleek and intuitive UI. The companies that make ham gear seem obsessed with complex and cryptic UIs. My Yaesu FT-3D is a good radio and isn't that hard to use, but its UI is still pretty clunky and the

That's the upside of a supercomputer though, fixed architecture to target with enough weight that it's worthwhile.

For use as a router, though, those are not necessarily better. The J4125 is more than capable of routing way more than 1 gbps, while running several services. And as the STH review points out, the N5105 in that unit has a bit more oomph but

There are quite a lot of Celeron J4125 boxes available with quad Intel NICs and Wifi that people use for pfsense routers. I have a 1U version that I use with 2.5 GbE, and there are a million variants of SFF boxes built around the same basic

I'm curious, what station are you using?

I have seen farmers using LoRaWAN, and The Things Network has pretty good availability in Europe. It's not really for smart home uses, more industrial/long range applications.

I mean, GNOME is the default on several commercially supported distributions. Redhat is the largest contributor. Granted, a lot of those commercially supported distributions are for customers who don't care about GUI uses but Ubuntu an

I believe it used to be easier and could be done basically with one click, but Xiaomi/Roborock pushed an update that locked it down as well as making it hard to downgrade to an earlier version.

Low-level waste storage is not really a problem and it can be disposed of safely, plus screening for contamination reduces waste volumes. Waste is designated by potential for contamination and the designation is applied automatically ba

Fortunately radiation detectors are very sensitive and it's easy to determine if something is significantly contaminated or not... heck with gamma spectroscopy you can even tell exactly what the contamination is and get an idea of how

KDE's efforts to clean up styling and polish rough edges over the last few years has put it in a really good spot.

No, LANS was the name of the LLC that used to run LANL (which lost the contract a few years ago hence past tense), but the name of the lab itself is [still] LANL. The way the labs are run only a few people in the top leadership roles change

Considering standalone GPS units used to charge like 50 bucks (and now I think a lot of them charge nothing/bake it into the up front cost) yeah I'd say so. Garmin currently charges something like 100 bucks for their updates based

I mean a single V100 GPU (~= 100 TFLOPS) has FLOPS throughputs similar to top end mid-00's supercomputers like Blue Gene, at least superficially. And you can squeeze like 4+ in a 1U if you have enough cooling and power. https:/&#

Don't forget the best part -- if you do want to update the maps they want to charge you 300+ dollars every year!

Oak Ridge does not do dual-use on the big leadership facilities, it's not really feasible with how they operate. I think Frontier can technically handle "moderate" data (e.g. export controlled), but not classified. It's

Oak Ridge in particular is in DoE Office of Science. They do some national security work, but their primary focus is basic science. Some of the national labs do primarily do nuclear weapons related research, but not Oak Ridge. Frontier is

Wouldn't a robot vacuum work better than a fan? That's what I use to keep husky fluff somewhat under control.

For people not familiar with it, Parasolid is the geometry engine that powers a bunch of prominent commercial CAD/CAD-adjacent tools. SolidWorks, Onshape, Ansys, Abaqus etc. It's kind of the benchmark to beat for open source compe

Yeah, maybe in some parallel reality Apple poured a ton of effort into Darwin as a standalone platform and made it a great server OS. It's hard to imagine nowadays, but there was a time when it seemed like it might not be such a fantas

Recent, actually. I got PyInstaller working but I tried cx_Freeze because it had an easier route to generating a quick .msi. I found cx_Freeze easier to use and ended up porting over to it, but to each their own.

Close enough, regardless of who made it it was a really interesting little oddity in the history of x86.

Apple gave up on the serious server market ages ago, especially the enterprise market. What else other than Linux are they gonna use? Windows? Maybe BSD would fit better with their lineage, but Linux has far better enterprise vendor support

You should also check out cx_Freeze, I have had better luck with it than PyInstaller with my project(s).

Oh man, Geode! That's a name I haven't heard in a really long time. That was AMD's attempt to keep the Cyrix IP alive, right?

These devices actually end up being kind of hard to engineer, measuring air temperature accurately especially can be kind of tricky. And then add in that for a weather station it has to be resistant to the elements and low power. Speaking f

There aren't many (any?) services that are offering Bluray quality 4K HDR streams but even those are only 140 mbps. I would think 1 gigabit down should cover most families handily, especially when you consider most streaming services a
