Many political strategists believe the optimal window for China to annex Taiwan is around 2026-2027. Perhaps Sam Altman had prior knowledge which lead to his decision to order 40% of the global RAM supply (raw, uncut wafers that can be warehoused) in preparation of the enviable. As this order is being fulfilled tech companies will be forced to develop non-Taiwanese supply chains immediately. In the end result OpenAI would have the world's largest reserve of critical AI infrastructure components.

The RAM crisis is being caused by a bunch of silicon valley cultists who think they can create God by buying a shit ton of RAM and scaling up their stupid chatbots. They have no more plan then to get a shit ton of GPUs and RAM and just scale huge on compute. Literally no plan.

>buy RAM
>?????
>create God

That is the cult's plan and they have effectively swindled a bunch of people into thinking they can do it, including rich capitalist investors who think they can just create robots and chatbots that will be good enough to let them fire all their workers and replace them. Everyone in this situation is dumb.

you can still find early model 600/650s from 20 years ago that work perfectly. Padding on headband is replaceable, so are the pads. Plastic overall design. HD 800 is a lot more money but it has a metal headband and obviously replaceable padding. Ironically a lot of 1k+ headphones have/had qc/design flaws but the hd 800 is still one of if not the most solid. Regardless any of those will do what you want and should last forever unless you try and break them like a monkey

Why can't linux come up with similar system as Apple Disk Image, something that just works without you learning entire new system on every distro? Is it bad to be user friendly and more centralized?

my HY300 looks exactly the same as the projector on the left that's $50. not enough brightness while the blacks are more like a dark gray and fade into the colors. crazy to think that you have to pay $200 for a marginally better device.
the projector on the right is the baseline of what you need: the sharpness, the brightness and vividness of the colors and steadiness in the motion but even then it's still not great.

It's time that Jimbo Wales (along with any admin that has been around longer than 10 years) to resign. Wikipedia is being ripped apart thanks to AI and is increasingly out of touch with the cultural zeitgeist due to aging millennial era policies. If not, then Wikipedia will as just hypocritical as Encarta and World Book were.

Wikipedia has obviously ran out of actual information to cover. One of the so called "did you knows" today was a sexist meme from 7 years ago, not exactly a good look when they are supposed to be about "Women in Red".

Larry Sanger, the actual founder quit years ago and he is right about absolutely everything about how cucked Wikipedia has become. The Wikimedia Foundation should just also shut down and put all the donation money in an account and Wikipedia's hosting costs can be paid by the interest.

as an amateur who learned C++ first, I can speculate. It gives you enough rope to hang yourself with and grants programmers more trust and responsibility than they want. How it handles pointers basically and, to a lesser extent, header files. Lots of gotchas if you're not meticulous. Also inheritance is falling out of style.

>we most definitely don't have SMR drives.
Some schizo is spamming /g/ with this so take it with a grain of salt, but apparently WD is now shipping drives which internally use SMR or zoned SMR, but marking them as CMR on product sheets. Some ways to identify them is them reporting TRIM support, or having disproportionally high amount of RAM compared to similar model drives. They may also report nonlinear speed curves depending on disk position, showing up as having several different "flat" speed zones. I have no idea how true any of this is.

>I'll check on monday if we have any of these things, ty for the tip.
They are the 8tb and 10tb drives which used to be helium initially, but they changed them to normal air ones. There's a theory going around that they run so hot simply because of the air friction, since they have too many platters to work with air, having been designed for helium use originally. They also have higher weight and use more power (9W vs 6W). I had a few of them, they were the loudest hard drives I ever bought. See picrel.

Looking at the latest datasheets it seems they are up to 12TB now. WD Gold WD121KRYZ was still helium and has 20dBa idle and 6W power, WD122KRYZ is air and has 34dBa idle and 9W power, Red Plus has equivalent 12TB models. So if you get anything 8TB or larger, make sure they are helium models even if they are an older model.

Or just use Toshiba enterprise drives, they don't fuck around with idiocy like this.

>apparently WD is now shipping drives which internally use SMR or zoned SMR, but marking them as CMR on product sheets
anon, that started years ago.
that "schizo" is most likely an LLM spambot.
>>
>>107731816
I don't mean the fiasco with the original Reds, but the crap with more recent drives that show up with TRIM support. I haven't bought low end drives in six or seven years so I don't know the real situation with those.

>that "schizo" is most likely an LLM spambot.
