It does, sometimes… but it is not a huge PITA.

I need to see if FairScan would do a better job.

I was just building a small home server / NAS. I went with a similar AM4 stack like 2 other PCs we have at home. More spare parts if needed.

Also a some manufacturers offer liftime warranty on RAM.

I don’t think thermal paste is the problem here, the whole box is god damn hot, so it conducts heat well. At wall it measures 14-15w consumption, got it there from like 20-22w that was on defaults. Given that N150 is 6W TDP, the whole system just runs hot.

A fan would help, but I wanted fanless for a reason.

I bought a topton router with Intel N150. I was and still am disappointed with how much it heats up. Enev at idle it’s not really comfortable to touch it.

Same boat for me. In addition all those AI CPUs were requiring DDR5, sometimes DDR5X, soldered to the board. Same with the WiFi, only SSDs were replaceable.

Damn, I would have thought that glacier would be cheaper and they would claw your eyes out on egress and access.

That just sounds as they aren’t using it property or having way too high expectations of what it can do from all the hype around.

GenAI can definitely help and accelerate your work, but when it is used sensibly. If you let it do most of the work, it will generate so much crap that you will not have capacity to review nor shape it to a desired state.

This is the way.

If router works, you got access to your lab. If it doesn’t, well redundancy was not a requirement / too much hassle to set up.

Maybe it’s just me, but 2026 looks pretty dull for PC gaming.

I did pretty much the same, but then Kerbal 2 happened. I had that game in wishlist for like 5 years and damn they played us dirty.

You are like hitting a data protection layer. Basically your corpo does not want you to exfiltrate data (accidentally nor maliciously).

Your options

• host it on a public endpoint so it looks like a legitimate website that you might need for your work. Chances are this will get blocked eventually.
• put you corpo laptop in separate vlan and don’t mix work and personal stuff. If you need something from your local, open it in your laptop. Everything on your work laptop is monitored.

rosettastone.com is something I used like 15 years ago. Kind of a desktop Duolingo or that’s how I remember it.

I have an idea for a game, I know how to code, but I’m clueless about gamedev. Hell yes I will use AI to help me with it. That is if I’ll find time for it, because it will be insane amount of work to have something playable.

Some people seem think that you write a couple of prompts and you can ship it as an early access game.

All my banking apps work on GOS. Flawlessly, well, except N26 which a bit unstable and crashes quite a lot. Nevertheless it works enough to be usable.

Probably games around year 2000. Not so much recycling back then.

Well that settles my idea of entertaining AM5.

At least in EU it just could have been just the right pricing with models in 800-900 EUR for 9070XT. Still outrageous price…

Then you have 5070 that’s the “low” model of 50s Nvidia that only maching 9070XT with “you can do AI and RTX” and 5080 arguably better than 9070XT, but in most cases over 1k EUR.

Donated again!

Maybe they are full of bullshit, maybe they aren’t. Google/Apple are way worse than this…

Kind of sad what f1 has become… All kinds of gimmicks to improve racing and when there is legitimate wheel to wheel racing their stance is: you were not in front of the other guy’s mirror, here is 10sec for you.

I was sorting somethingting similar some time ago with https://www.dwarmstrong.org/remote-unlock-dropbear/

Also there is https://github.com/latchset/tang and https://github.com/latchset/clevis

Then I changed it so my server boots and offers basic functionality like DNS and any encrypted data would wait until I unlock it. When I fiddle with it could be annoying, but otherwise works very well considering I need to unlock it just a few times a year.
