    It's more like there are a lot of building restrictions and fines. Overloading the local power systems. Building illegal turbines. If you can get paid on your waste heat why wouldn…

    500MB is just not enough RAM for a good HA experience. I would go with at least 2GB. If you have a few add-ons running I would go with 4 or more. If it's an option I would always g…

    There is also keepass, which you can sync with whatever free cloud storage you want. It might not be the nicest password manager you can use, but you can always use it for free. Bi…

    They steal it, but give everyone free access. You can download it for free, but can also torrent everything. They don't hoard for themselves, but everyone gets access to what they …

    The EU governments should gradually start switching to open source solutions. New software projects should be open source by default and only closed if there is a real reason for i…

    Why would TSMC do this? Companies want the best chips and they can only get them from TSMC. If there isn't an alternative and building the necessary infrastructure in the US takes …

    A decently powerful Server is nice, when you need it. Having some modern APU for decent en- and decoding performance is great. There are tasks that benefit from speed, but the most…

    If you're sure enough that there is going to be a big crash I would move the money into gold, bonds or other more secure assets. After a crash you can invest again. I don't know wh…

    Every promise of this administration is worthless, so why even bother? Either they protect you, because they don't want the chip tech to fall to China or they don't. Buying half of…

    Spin down isn't as problematic today. It really depends on your setup and usage. If the stuff you access often can be cashed to SSDs you rarely access it. Depending on your file sy…

    I don't think this problem is going to be solved by hyper scalers offering their own accelerators. They probably offer better price to performance, but try to lock you into their e…
