Not an unexpected move. Only a select few cared about NIOS II or MicroBlaze anyway.

[milkylainen]

You're right. Not certified. Neither is multigig 5G by TIA/EIA. But this is just signal math.
Afaik:

Cat5e cables were originally classified...

[milkylainen]

I'm not sure I follow you.
What I meant is that people likely to upgrade to 2,5 and 5 already have Cat5e.
Cat5e is almost 20 years old already....

[milkylainen]

Umm. Cat5 was ratified in 1991. Cat 5e in 2001(?).
If you havn't upgraded your cat cabling since 1991 and want to run multigig my guess is that...

[milkylainen]

Absolutely not. Stop masking user tracking as bullshit causes and crusades.

[milkylainen]

Sure does not matter for the end user. Probably can't make a reasonable distinction between them.
But the blame is an entirely different matter...

[milkylainen]

Don't care much for the kernel naming scheme nowdays.
5.0 or 4.21 seems utterly arbitrary.

[milkylainen]

It's an interesting thing to try either way. A porker like this might get some relevant benefits.
I always tried to adhere to "stupid and slow...

[milkylainen]

Seems like over-engineering into specific function. What does the kernel care about specific color?
You encode your LEDs and let whatever userspace...

[milkylainen]

Are engine resets due to:
Bad drivers?
Bad hardware?
Bad user code pushing through the GPU?

All of the above?

[milkylainen]

The biggest letdown for me is core kernel contamination by crap mitigation because of broken hardware.

[milkylainen]

HAMMER2 still assuming that fsync ops are bs and everybody is better off without?

[milkylainen]

Well. The same thing goes for all complex pieces of software.
Don't get me wrong. I love that Wayland is making progress.
But it's usually...

[milkylainen]

The article is correct about EDAC but the title is somewhat misleading.
There was always ECC support and it has nothing to do with Linux.
...

[milkylainen]

PowerPC is dead to me.
I would not start a new project where I had the chance to choose a CPU based on a PPC today.

I've worked with...

[milkylainen]

When counting total system power? Not likely. x86 + decent GPU does not fit in this envelope.
As a total performance measurement? Then this will...

[milkylainen]

20k _lines_ reduction?!

Thats nice, but damn there must have been some serious redundancies in the code...

[milkylainen]

So if I disable HT... Will I still pay the piss-poor performance penalties induced by STIBP?...

[milkylainen]

You're right.
But I wasn't commenting on weather you should overclock your server/workstation or not.
I was only commenting on the technical...

[milkylainen]

That's some seriously nice scaling!

But I don't see why ECC should be a much harder overclock?
It's a few bits more to store the ECC......
