I think most reasonable people realise that was either the US or the UK.

Can't do idrac of course but you can do managed power port, kvm and ssh. The most efficient is managed power + serial + ssh and probably the best to go for.

I think the airflow for more than 3 per 1.33u, or 8-9 per 3u will necessarily suck. I have designed for both, I think both have great use cases. 2 x 8 in 6u is really neat and tidy, I just don't love the concept of sitting the fans on

In that case then they should be on switched pdu ports and plugged into permanent kvm. I'm sorry but this is nonsense, if you're really racking them in bulk the above is obvious.

Pretty similar to anywhere else in Western Europe. Includes health care and a state pension and things like that.

I think they're only paying for install costs and not ongoing fees.

For this purpose unifi or similar is more than adequate, each hotspot is presumably just one or two APs.

Quite popular in the UK is the concept of A) Splitter cabinets which you get a fibre back to and then get put on one of several splitters. These cabs are completely passive and come in 48 or 96 (maximum) ports (usually fed by 12f back to th

4096 would be the theoretical maximum number of subscribers. Most providers will average about half of a 32 split PON actually having subscribers on. So using this case the maths now looks like 16Mb per customer in a failure scenario, 32Mb

Oh yes, to be fair those are bad - they're the ones where they've removed the physical keyboard if I remember correctly. Elizabeth Line - the move to LCD screens was probably a move to make it feel more modern, no doubt at great c

I'm just thinking about this. If they were to give it to a "public sector" style org who would it be? It would be interesting just to give the job to Jisc actually, eduroam at all mainline stations and for normal users a capt

by matt-p 2y ago
The theory is right but in practice none of this is really run by the public sector anything remotely difficult is just contracted out to the private sector and they go with basically the cheapest bid from a "big" company. In this

Sorry are you advocating death as punishment for hacking a captive portal?

by matt-p 2y ago
Yes but mainline stations it's captive portal open wifi. I think it literally is called network rail free wifi or something.
677.
by matt-p 2y ago
The issue with on train wifi is the companies see it as a pure cost centre and aren't incentivised to provide a quality product there. Some have even turned it off! The on train hardware is usually half decent but they typically go wit

Tourism - and if you've run out of roaming data or are being charged per MB then it's actually very useful. We need a better way of doing it though, this unauthenticated network with a captive portal running on some embedded devic

"worse" doesn't ring true, they have really just stayed the same. IMO this is fine, as I've not needed to use a machine in a year or two. You buy rail tickets on your phone with QR code tickets and tap in and out of TFL

Indeed, I would have done this yesterday in IA's shoes. Never have too big of a legal/servers fund.

HVDC is not a silver bullet. Converter stations are very expensive and also take more space. You need one every time you tap in/out of the transmission line, great for point to point links say Offshore windfarm to major IC, but general

I guess we have to wait and see.

On a unrelated note, could IA be charging companies training AI for access to an API with all thier data, or a enormous data dump? Presumably historical context is quite useful for so e cases and if they can access new content like books et

Love the idea, but for unreal engine 1% royalty is fair, you've built your entire product on it. But what about 1% of revenue for a UX libary or database product from uber? I'd say that the old elastic licence is great to standard

Why would you need Hosting, Deployment help, LTS release When you are buying a "one click" aws managed service? Are feature or bug bounties even applicable if you have to wait an unknown amount of time for it to reach you via AWS?

For the purposes of the point I was making and this discussion it doesn't really matter if it's market dominance or cost. The point is big established vendor free-riding on the work a smaller company has done, potentially extingui

Indeed. We can only have a small amount of solar, but wind keeps blowing at night, Nucular continues, biomas too. The gap we need to bridge most urgently is turning off gas generation. Take a look here, https://www.energydashboar
