Peertube would likely be a good self hosted solution for scaling this, as you end up with a swarm of seeders as content gets more popular, reducing the load on the main server: http://joinpeertube.org/en/

The first gen Archer C7 routers kernel panic as Qualcomm decided to not support the 5GHz card in the driver they use (but later revisions of said card are supported). You end up needing to open the router and remove the card just to get it

Lower mileage insurance can help reduce that cost by the way, if you tell your insurer your only adding 2k miles a year to the car rather than 10k miles, they will drop your rates commensurately. Sub in an eBike for the commuting & erra

Depends where you want to go in the city and what you want to do. Portland has some hellish traffic at times, and free parking isn't as plentiful as you describe. The inner suburbs all have metered parking on 2+ lane streets, and extre

China can train chip designers just like Israel does, but they are on a path to end up in Intel's predicament, where they don't have the ability to fabricate competitive chips as their foundries are one to two generations outdated

A node is the process a chip is built on. Smaller process = smaller circuits in your chips that use less power/run faster.

The author also omitted that China has no bleeding edge foundries (like TSMC & Samsung's 7nm fabs) and it is unlikely they will be able to build one any time soon. Both Intel and Global Foundries are trapped on older nodes, and Chi

Its likely a network problem causing large jitter buffers (see my other comment). Buying Polycom won't solve this problem, unless the jitter buffer is in adaptive mode and its wildly overestimating the jitter (a problem I've seen

Sounds like your conferencing system has large jitter buffers. If your internet is stable, you should be able to reduce the buffer. To test your network, go to https://www.dslreports.com/speedtest and see if you have signif

A few dozen sensors can go a long way, for example a municipality can find that a particular pipe is consistently pushing 100gpm, despite serving residential customers that don't normally have that kind of even usage. This implys a lea

Note that this chip cost increase is due to silicon defects, a larger chip has more defects, thus your failure rate significantly increases with each increase in chip area. AMD is working around this by using 8 separate CPU chips, wired tog
