Just Google

Why don’t you and post a few links?

My UPS at home just straight up won’t run off of another UPS unless it’s a perfect sinewave. Square wave REALLY makes it mad, and modified sinewave doesn’t work either. No matter what the UPS will refuse that power and only use its batteries.

I can’t find anything on their website about it being sinewave (pure or modified) so I’m going to assume it’s square wave. I’d imagine a high quality PSU found in a server will handle it, but it won’t be happy.

AC Inverter Output - 6000 Watt Continuous (240V) / 9000 Watt Surge

Pure Sine Wave design provides extremely clean power

Why is this not on their own website?

The chassis of the car is used for ground. Your car would melt and catch fire as soon as they get electrified.

World of Warcraft

It’s also the first game I played in 2025. I just left it running.

Power (heat) modern (especially high end) CPUs and GPUs can see some impressive reductions in power with not too much of a hit to performance.

My 4090 underclocked basically as far as it will go draws about 200 watts under normal loads, 250-300 under pretty extreme loads. But the performance penalty is only like 15%

Normally when you want to save power in a desktop device you just throw a laptop CPU or GPU in there because those are tuned for better performance per watt…. Or just not an Intel CPU because AMD is so much better in that regard.

High end graphics cards have become so expensive that people can’t afford gaming with good graphics

Not only that, but mid range cards just haven’t really moved that much in terms of performance. The ultra high end used to be a terrible value only for people who want the best and didn’t care about money. Now it almost makes sense from a performance per dollar standpoint to go ultra high end. At launch the 4090 was almost twice the performance of the 4080, but only cost about 1.5x. And somehow the value gets worse the lower end you go.

Meanwhile mid-high end cards like the 4060 and 7600 (which used to be some of the best values) are barely outperforming their predecessors.

Yes, single zero. 400w would indeed be VERY impressive.

They already do. My thinkpad T14s is incredibly thin, and it can dissipate 400 40 watts of power. My P1 dissipates 160+ watts and it’s also very thin.

I mean, yes?

The key difference is linux wants you to help make it better. Something like Honey steals your data, and steals money from others, and then wants you to make it better.

Even better there’s whole head units designed to fin nicely into the dash and look relatively OEM. My co worker was looking at one that was like $300 but came with a massive nice screen vs the stock 6” display.

But at least he politely waited at the door to shoot him.

For us it was more of a liability than anything. We didn’t use any of the high availability features, and every time we needed to remove and readd a host it was a massive pain in the ass and usually broke more things. It was nice for migrating VMs around, but we don’t do that all THAT often.

I’m curious if this datacenter will handle our shitty hosts spontaneously dying and needing to be rebuilt better.

After dealing with clusters before I don’t want any of my machines in clusters.

How does this differ from joining nodes to a cluster? I kinda figured a cluster was their (kinda janky) alternative to VCSA.

Modern Tom’s hardware

actually trying

Not possible.

or rely on Windows update to give you reasonably recent drivers.

Windows update: I see you just installed this driver from 3 weeks ago, let me just revert to a driver from 2021 for ya.

The iPhone has one ram option. If you buy an iPhone 16 your only option is 8 gigs.

Nvidia doesn’t care. Their margins will be high enough, and there will be enough buyers that they’ll be able to print money at whatever absurd price point they choose.

Just like gsync died

(true) gsync isn’t dead, it’s only in the highest end of monitors which is basically where it’s always been. It only “died” because it requires an expensive module vs adaptive sync being built into basically every modern display controller so it’s basically free.
