Unfortunately. I have seen some ISPs DHCP servers assign IPs with no particular subnet(s). Could be a case here as well.

I read the current Starlink system has a limitation where if you move outside of your assigned service "cell", you lose service. Guessing this is still the case.

Fair enough

I wasn't implying that wildcard records are something entirely incompatible with DNSSEC, more that certain nameserver implementations could potentially have trouble with them.

To quote from the Slack engineering report

This indicated there was likely a problem with the ‘*.slack.com’ wildcard record since we didn’t have a wildcard record in any of the other domains where we had rolled out DNSSEC on

I'm not going to stick my hand in either camp for the sake of this discussion, but dynamic/wildcard DNS records are exactly the type of thing I'd suspect DNSSEC to have trouble with

I noticed that too. However there is realtime translation by volunteers, and they seem to do a good job.

I guess the idea is if you're studying EE and related fields: "crawl before you can walk"

This. Some standards bodies (arguably) made a big deal about client certificates some time ago to reliably pin client identities for client->server connections (whether it worked is a different story), and I certainly think having functionality for the reverse (pinning server identities) should exist too.

Doesn't have to be Gemini even, but I think getting buy in from browser vendors after the removal of HPKP is going to be a problem...

Does SourceHut support other change workflows than just email patches or has anyone else integrated such? (i.e a "PR" style module, Gerrit, etc.)

How exactly do you test your own GPU "rendering" under macOS?

Except they already do. Also, AMD announced SmartShift ("shifts power inside your laptop for the optimal performance for a given task") support for Linux a couple of days ago. They're more than usable nowadays.

Interesting, thanks!

Probably a popular opinion here, but any display with a higher res than 1440p (1600p if it's a 16:10 display) is a waste on a laptop. I'd rather have a 1080p one over a 4K one, personally.

I don't disagree that 4k is a little nuts on a ~15" laptop LCD, but it seems until recently you're options for decent >1080p displays on laptops for the most part were a) Macbooks (2880x1800 at 15.4"), and b) 4k PC laptops

Talk to me when decent laptops with AMD dedicated and/or APU graphics and >1080p IPS displays exist.

I wasn't opposed to the 220dpi of the older Macbook Pros (2880x1800 @ 15.4),but otherwise this is what I want.

I've heard good things about Clevo based designs in the past but even those seem to be questionable now.

This all makes me think there is some other microcontroller somewhere that controls the bios flashback process, which would almost certainly be an extra chip.

I believe they just have some sort of extra microcontroller wired to a USB port and the SPI flash chip that stores the BIOS, probably with some sort of switch to ensure the host can't touch the SPI flash when the external microcontroller is attempting to flash it.

Another issue is motherboard firmware. Even though AMD supplies the memory init code, the configuration can be tweaked by motherboard vendor, and they might simply break ECC support accidentally (even by something as simple as making a toggle default to false then forgot to expose it in configuration menu).

I think some Gigabyte boards are infamous for this in certain circle

OTOH: Gigabyte might have a Threadripper PRO motherboard (WRX80 chipset) coming out in the future

IBM POWER9 supports some memory ordering instructions that (as I understand) would in theory be useful for x86 emulation, but a) I'm unsure if anyone actually uses them and b) They are removed from POWER10

Documented cases don't seem to be common, but what comes to mind is the Debian "weak keys" scandal (2008), and the VLC "libeml" vulnerability (2019)[1]

Honorable mention to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1pchpDD5EU

Some people claim Gigabyte X570 motherboards in theory have the traces needed for UDIMM ECC, but the (hardcoded) BIOS settings cause the memory to not initialize in ECC mode.

I have an early Dell IPS from circa 2005 which is 1280x1024 19" and it supports DVI input, fortunately.

I was able to to induce single and multi bit errors into DDR4 RAM by increasing the clock frequency, reducing timings, and undervolting.

Although this question is more academic in nature, how "difficult" is memory training/initialization compared to DDR4? I recall an active microcontroller needing to calibrate the DRAM on startup for DDD4.

Laplink cable?

Those have a dongle inside the cable to actually do something useful, versus mindless delivering 5 volts to the other end.

I have a keyboard from Cooler Master with one of those ghastly A to A cables :|

Attempting to switch GPUs from userland, or?

Not to mention the lost writes (missing data points) which have no logged explanation.

FWIW I've had similar issues with MySQL backed Zabbix before.

Got an example?

NetSol/Web.com, (maybe) Gandi SAS, easyDNS and (maybe) Tucows

Others may support it by request

And could you use it to pay for my domain, which is not using "your" registrar?

No

There are other registrars that support paying for an arbitrary domain without having ownership.

Okay. I'm afraid to ask. What happens in the case of a) a torrent with no seeders or b) Has seeders with enough data to get a directory listing but either the seeders "drop off" afterwards or are incomplete

Other experiences with network filesystems (CIFS/NFS) on multiple platforms sometimes have things getting hairy if the connection to the server drops while the filesystem is mounted or in use
