I'm not denying that the problem exists, but I don't think Alderon provided enough data to come to a conclusion, unlike on the desktop, where it's supported by other parties in addition to Alderon's data (where you can l

Are you talking about Xeon Scalable? Although they share the same core design as the desktop counterpart (Xeon Scalable 4th Gen shares the same Golden Cove as 12th Gen, Xeon Scalable 5th Gen shares the same Raptor Cove as 13th/14th Gen

It's worth noting that W680 boards are not a server board, they're a workstation board, and often times they're overclockable (or even overclocked by default). Wendell actually showed the other day that the ASUS W680 board wa

The problem may exist, but Alderon Games' report on the mobile chip is more of an anecdote here because there's not enough data points (unlike their desktop claims), and the only SKU they give (13900HX) is actually a desktop chip

I have not, partly because the most recent build I've found is still Android 9.0, which uses kernel 4.x, while the Radeon 780M in Minisforum V3 requires at least kernel 6.4. I have tried Waydroid, but the lack of full USB passthrough m

systemd socket activation opens extra fds starting from fd 3 (SD_LISTEN_FDS_START). Though I can't think of a scenario where this may be relevant for dehydrated. Maybe some weird systemd unit somewhere that invoke dehydrated does this?

One of the biggest benefits of dehydrated is that it doesn't try to integrate with a DNS provider on its own. It just connects to ACME server and calls a hook, which can be implemented with a simple shell script[1]. The most popular th

Modern CPUs have many limits to protect the CPU and later the clock behavior. For example, clock limit, current limit (IccMax, 307A for 13900K), long power limit (PL1, 125W), short power limit (PL2, 253W), transient peak limit (PL3), overcu
