“We just lost 3TB of data on a SanDisk Extreme SSD” - The Verge
  • Raid doesnt even protect against bit rot either. It doesn't matter how many disks you write to even in a raid one array you are still vulnerable. Unless you have a high end raid card that does block level checksuming your raid array will not go back and verify previously written to data is still correct. If it does have checksuming it still isn't smart enough to know which drive is the is correct and will lock the array in the best case.

  • [Music News] Beyoncé is selling $157 “listening only” tickets for her Renaissance tour. The seats are behind the stage, so you can’t see the concert, any of the set, or dancing.
  • The problem isn't exactly the pop stars but live nation's monopoly which strangles every aspect of the live music industry. As a musician if you want to preform at almost any large venue you'll have to get in bed with live nation or be black listed. If you run venue you better join live nation's network and use ticket master or else you won't be able to book money making artists. And as a fan you better buy your price gouged tickets through ticket master or else you won't get to see anyone play.

  • You didn't bought it you rented it!
  • Yeah I can't argue with the usenet fees but all three of my index sites I've had no issues with their free version so long as you do go wild and download ten terabytes in a night. I've actually had better luck with the selection compared to torrenting, pretty much is there in all of the popular resolutions. The only thing I have finding is some of the obscure adult swim shows but I can't find them on my private trackers either.

  • PC graphics cards to get more expensive again "thanks" to AI boom
  • Well there is the asus AI Accelerator card but that's just 8 coral TPUs. I think the real reason why we don't see large TPUs is because nvidia cards has had tensor cores built into the architect since Volta and with a GPU you don't have to worry about system memory speed since you have 80Gb of HBM.

  • BMW tests next-gen LiDAR to beat Tesla to Level 3 self-driving cars
  • That's not how light/laser and prisms work. Prisms only separate out the frequencies that are contained within the light/laser. imagine the light is a sandwich and each frequency is a peice of the sandwich. If you take apart the sandwich you still have the same bread, meat and cheese just not stacked together. That's what the prism is basically doing.

  • Incandescent light bulbs are officially banned in the U.S.
  • LED bulbs for refrigerators and freezers are pretty easy to design since the lower temperatures will let the LEDs run more efficiently. Oven lamps might never get LEDs because normal solder starts to melt around 350F and will soften around 200F so unless they start making the bulbs with exotic and expensive solder we will never see LEDs in the oven.

  • You didn't bought it you rented it!
  • New skool is to use automation tools to grab and manage your media. You can still use torrenting but IMO using usenet is more reliable and doesn't flag your ISP. I highly recommend anyone pirating to use 'arrs https://wiki.servarr.com/

  • People sticking with audio jack phones, why is USB-C earphones not a solution?
  • because studio equipment uses 3.5mm or other standard jacks (XLR for microphones for example) as they cause the lowest interference.

    Digital signaling is not susceptible to interference like analog signaling. Comparing three analog connectors to a digital signal is a false comparison. With a digital signal unless the interference is large enough to sway the voltage to the wrong side of the threshold it doesn't matter as it will still register a one or a zero. Analog signaling on the other hand is very susceptible to interference unless you use balanced connections which uses wave interference to remove the added noise.

  • How much power does your home lab take?
  • Avarage load for me is around 300w running two T320s, a R510, and a NUC. The T320s are clustered running plex, 'arrs, pihole/unbound, game servers, and odoo. The nuc serves two purposes, firstly to keep quorum in the cluster and secondarily as a low power device to run a secondary pihole/unbound instance incase the power goes out as it's the only server that will stay on UPS power until the battery runs out. The R510 is my storage server with around 56TB and growing.

    I am planning on adding a GPU server with a few tesla P40s as I've been using my workstation for these tasks which makes it difficult to use it for work.

  • Proxmox and NAS on same machine
  • ZFS not have access to smart only works up until a drive starts acting up. Without SMART ZFS can't accurately determine if a drive is failing and lock the pool in order to prevent further data loss.

  • Proxmox and NAS on same machine
  • The best way to do this is to run a truenas VM within proxmox and passthrough your HBA into the truenas VM. That will give truenas full control over any drive connected to that HBA. The performance overhead isn't that much so don't worry about it.
