1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.

    Can't touch this

    I have the opposite problem.

    Reapply thermal paste every 24h. It'll be fine.

    I've got a Dell R730, this is standard operating temperatures.

    [–] Dagnet@lemmy.world 1 points 33 minutes ago

    My Dell optiplex reports 126C, is this really normal dell behavior?

    [–] communism@lemmy.ml 12 points 4 hours ago

    So I was curious and looked it up because I would have assumed that stars/suns are much hotter than that.

    https://www.nationalgeographic.com/adventure/article/110323-coldest-star-discovered-cup-coffee-brown-dwarf-hawaii-space-science

    Turns out the coldest star is 97Β°C at its surface. So I guess CPUs regularly reach (coldest) star temperature?

    Of course. That's why it's called KDE Plasma and not KDE Liquid or KDE Gaseous

    [–] rtxn@lemmy.world 12 points 4 hours ago

    Still waiting for the KDE Neutron Degenerate Matter release.

    If Lemmy had awards, you would deserve one

    i reposted this comment to !bestoflemmy@lemmy.world. You're welcome.

    To be fair, I still have this Lemmy award idea, with a twist. The pay goes to awardee's preferred open-source project as donation.

    [–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 5 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

    Half of it split between the instances of the awarder and awardee, the other half as you said.

    [–] muhyb@programming.dev 2 points 2 hours ago

    That would be even better!

    [–] Marzanna@scribe.disroot.org 6 points 5 hours ago

    …and converted to UltraSPARC?

    [–] jxk@sh.itjust.works 10 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

    I'm more triggered by the missing degree symbol Β° before C

    [–] Agent641@lemmy.world 1 points 42 minutes ago

    It's actually travelling at 6280 x the speed of light 😬

    Congratulations to you and the motherboard.

    Okay hear me out, we got nuclear fusion, now place some water in a massive tub on top of the pc.
    Create steam
    Spin turbines
    Generate electricity
    Send to another server
    Infinate power

    OP at their keyboard right now:

    [–] _cryptagion@anarchist.nexus 67 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

    yes, but have you successfully achieved fusion in the CPU? if so, this will revolutionize selfhosting.

    [–] fartographer@lemmy.world 32 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

    Trying to mine some Ethereum and accidentally ending up with with a shit-ton of hydrogen burning into helium

    [–] some_kind_of_guy@lemmy.world 11 points 14 hours ago

    Great, now my electron wallet doesn't want to work anymore. Said something about "busy influencing the fusion rate" and "please wait while I maintain the overall electrical neutrality within the plasma" or somesuch

    At least swap usage is low.

    [–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 59 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

    The steel of the case melted long ago... I guess the carpet is ruined.

    the hole's in the carpet can be fixed

    Ackshually this is well within the range of a Class F star, unlike our class G sun which is a bit cooler. This is getting cloe to the temperature of Procyon A which is noticeably whiter than the sun.

    [–] Zen_Shinobi@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago

    A weapon to surpass Metal Gear?!

    [–] goatinspace@feddit.org 10 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

    Oh now it makes sense. Temperature was less than Absolute zero now you can make 100% efficiency carnot engine

    [–] mushroommunk@lemmy.today 11 points 14 hours ago

    Time to build a small Dyson Sphere.

    [–] huquad@lemmy.ml 10 points 13 hours ago

    The power of the sun in the palm of my hand!

    Wow you did it! How much data to hit critical mass?
