Patches for Renoir based APU's appeared in kernel 5.4[0]. Looks like by the time these launch they will have out of the box Linux support which is huge compared to how Raven Ridge launched. [0]: https://www.phoronix.com/

I completely forgot about that difference with IPV6 and IPV4. You are right. There are still many thousands if not millions of addresses available to those who want them. And compared to IPV4 everyone on the planet could have a /64. He

Yes it appears so. But there seems to be a few requirements [0]. Also bear in mind a /64 is more than 18 quintillion addresses so it might be a bit more expensive. And it appears they only offer /48's to individual businesses

Before I used an ad blocker I encountered a lot of malvertisting[0]. Now that I use an ad blocker and set it them up for friends and family random virus attacks, bluescreens, and other types of issues are a thing of the past. I understand n

Just because the statistical probability of something happening is very low does not mean that it is physically impossible. Flipping a coin 100 times and having the results all be heads is extremely low but still physically possible. We can

I truly believe my children (not born yet) are going to buy their first car and it will be fully autonomous. Too many people my age and older will be apprehensive about giving up control, despite it likely being safer. So I think it is fair

There are rumors of a new iPhone SE 2 coming later this year[0]. If true it might be right up the gp's alley. [0]: https://www.techradar.com/news/iphone-se-2

Are they positioning themselves to be something of an nvidia shield or raspberry pi running retropi/libreelec competitor? Do they envision the Atari VCS will become a new platform to develop for? A new paradigm to combine couch gaming&

The parent comment was likely referring to using the clients as workstations, not necessarily gaming computers. Though the cost of this server and the fiber optic usb peripherals is crazy. One of those fiber usb repeaters costs as much as a

I agree that for some people, they stick with Windows because their hardware and software does just work. Compatibility with the things you do is important. However we are in a thread about how Windows 10 search just up an broke and whose o

I have had great success cleaning using a electronics vacuum. It is a type of vacuum that blows instead of sucks and uses non-conductive materials to avoid static discharge. I got one for around 60 USD and unless the motor breaks it should
