I didn't need many cores; but I needed the PCIe lanes. 1900X was perfect for that. I don't follow, how did you figure that my application doesn't use all of its PCIe lanes? Another thing was, that since there were less cores

State-level censors will at first ask nicely to block specific entries for their ip ranges; either the provider cooperates (then DoH won't help at all) or not. If not, they won't have problem blocking entirety of Google or Cloudfl

With USB->DP adapter yes. With a hub offering USB3 ports, mostly no. Once both lanes are in DP-alternate mode (needed for 4k@60), there's no bandwidth for USB3, only the separate wire for USB2. So here it depends how it is internall

No, SwOS is a simple OS only for switches; it's purpose is to configure the switch chip and then get out of the way. I do not like it, it is configurable only via web. No cli, no api, no ansible/terraform-like automation possible.

In your own rack, you would do exactly that. But if you paying per U in colo, this card can save you one slot.

Have look at Mikrotik CCR2004-1G-12S+2XS (1G-12S+2XS means 1x1Gbps RJ45, 12xSFP+, 2xSFP28) or CCR2116-12G-4S+ (12G-4S+ = 12x1Gbps RJ45, 4xSFP+), depending how many ports and what kind of routing performance you need (check the block diagram

It is. Just the software doing the routing is not running on your main CPU, but on the CPU bundled on the board.

You can move windows without any decorations (press the alt key and drag the window); resizing doesn't really work, as there is nothing to handle the repaint. Consistency is a matter of POV - it is not really consistent, if your decora
