Note that IFL = cores that only run Linux and cannot run mainframe OSes. The Telum CPU is 5Ghz and has some level of builtin inferencing accordong to their specs. However the emphasis is going to be on single system image... you won't

Two differences were, no one was killed without a fair trial (the Rosenbergs of that time were definitely guilty and they went through a normal court system) , and, the Venona decrypts showed that there were a lot of spies just as McCarth

Does anyone have skepticism about this, given there are often revisions that are quietly made later?

NetBSD runs well on older hardware, even old laptops. It is clean and no-nonsense; you don't have lots of daemon processes running that you haven't put there yourself. FreeBSD is what I run more, to be sure, but for old SPARC mac

You should be able to determine who the hosting company is, and offer to pay to keep the site up. If the hosting company is paid they will make and keep a backup for you but under the permissions/access of the original owner. If the ho

It depends, if it is considered radiation then it is "landing" on your property; so you have the right to use it, same as the radio frequencies that pass by you are legal to listen in on, such as AM or FM radio...

It would be a huge mistake for FreeBSD to adopt Rust in base at this stage, and would likely fracture whatever cohesion exists amongst the current team; it would be "emacs vs. vi" all over again, except worse; it would be that tho

Would have liked to know what the difference was in response between Cogent and Level3. Did only Cogent respond at all, or was Cogent the one handling all their IPv4 space?

That is great to hear, actually! Thank you.

My question: is it bootable into Linux without the use of any binary blobs? That is, can it be booted essentially equivalent to a librebooted system?

That certainly led me to a very pleasant rabbit hole! Different codes invented for different trades or professions, also...

The Intel N100 based home servers/thin clients like Beelink are more but will be far faster and barely use any more power.

I have recently started to play around with the lightweight Emacs mode, "HOWM" which was written about 20 years ago by a Japanese author, who still maintains it today. The howm-mode shows you a summary view, comprised of informati

Some of the HP iLO and other servers as well as some networking gear uses this. Not sure those devices can be upgraded.

It's sad, HPE will suck out all the life-force of Juniper; I have had other HP-acquired products and they never got better in subsequent offerings, only worse.

The suppprt chips would add a few more chips; the most basic z80 setup is 5 or 6 chips, but they are not as easy to find.

They bought Poly/Polycom and completely screwed up the knowledgebase and support information by replacing any unrecognized URLs with low-content marketing web pages. Does HPE truly not know how to put in place web redirects?

The surprise to me about this, is that the design documents for the various WiFi standards focus on interoperability of any WiFi device with any other. It didn't occur to me that a patent on WiFi would be enforceable, given what happen

I tried it with both a van and a trailer but ultimately I found I wanted 'too much stuff' around me to make it practical, like retrocomputing stuff. If I was younger and truly had less stuff, no reason it wouldn't work.

Yes, given that Intel's ability to have smaller process sizes helped greatly to paper over any design flaws. The first SPARC V7 CPU had 110k transistors on 1300nm process to the 386DX's 275k on 1000nm and less process.

Not sure if this would count as an analog simulation or not. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississippi_River_Basin_Mode... . It was more accurate than many digital computer models for quite some time...
