Final Fantasy is like Black Mirror, there are common themes, plot points, and names that persist throughout the series. However no two numbered titles share the same worldbuilding, lore, and characters.

It's like what happened with Quake I-IV but on steroids. Very different games held together by a promise of what emotions you'd expect.

according to a detailed writeup of the event by Doug Madory, a BGP expert at security and networking firm Kentik.

What's a ”BGP expert”? Most of this stuff is covered in an undergraduate networking course. Wouldn't just "networking expert" do?

If we're nitpicking about AMD: another thing I dislike about them is their smaller presence in the research space compared to their competitors. Both Intel and NVIDIA throw money into risky new ideas like crazy (NVM, DPUs, GPGPUs, P4, Frame Generation). Meanwhile, AMD seems to only hop in once a specific area is well established to have an existing market.

For consumer stuff, AMD is definitely my go-to. But it occurs to me that we need companies that are willing to fund research in Academia. Even if they don't have a super good track record of getting profitable results.

Because this wouldn't be targeted towards a single device/connection. This is for a household of 5+ streaming 4k, running servers, having cloud (yada yada) IoT devices running simultaneously.

It's the hobbyist tier. It's like asking someone "why do you ever need more than one cast iron pan" when they're into cast iron pan collecting.

Oh wow. It supports Kobos as well. Gonna have to check this out. Thanks.

Because the horses are coming. And they are ANGRY.

The only way to survive is to win three rounds of trivia nights on various horse topics. So quit horsing around!

I mean they're not wrong...

This is why my next book will be titled "how to cook dinner without a compiler, GCC 4 to GCC 11 compatible!"

I see your decryption key extraction and offer you a 5 dollar wrench.

The wrench also comes with DMA (direct mechanical assault), RDMA (remote direct mechanical assault via throwing), and DDIO (deals damage if opposing) capabilities. It's a real NSA bargain!

Never "just" steam your veggies. Do a quick stirfry in oil with garlic then use the residual steam to finish it up!

Isn't the whole point of these things the "bloated" (CI/CD, issue tracker, merge requests, mirroring, etc) part? Otherwise we'd all be using bare git repos over ssh (which works great btw!)

It's like complaining about IDE bloat while not using a text editor. Or complaining there's too many knives in a knife set instead of buying just the chef knife.

That's just a Thinkpad. If they keep making them smaller eventually it will fit in your pocket.

It's overkill, but 50Gbps is not enough for a Public University these days. A single core switch in a NYC skyscraper can see an average of 2.6Tbps of traffic. You'll probably need at least 200-400Gbps for an entire university.

But yeah, still overkill for a phone.
