    Much less than that. From what I've seen 2-3k depending on the topics being discussed and whether or not they're on time.

    Inb4 Linus blames this weeks WAN show being late on being suspended.

    I bet @James is cheering. He won't even need to write any notes for this weeks WAN show. May as well take the rest of the week off.

    I mean, there are many ways to do RTMP. The only thing needed is a stable platform like NGINX + RTMP or Wowza.

    UPDATE: LinusTech Twitch channel is now back online. Suspension only lasted a period of 24 hours.

    LinusTechTips Twitch channel (twitch.tv/linustech) has been temporarily removed from Twitch after the channel received a DMCA (Digital Milennium Copyright Act) violation notice.
     
    The suspension is expected to last for a period of 24 hours, starting 30/4/2018. Currently the LinusTechTips channel is not being displayed to followers in their "followed channel" panel. Attempting to navigate to the page directly presents an error message stating that you are unable to access that content. Features such as previously recorded videos being hosted and displayed on the channel are also currently inaccessible to followers.

     


    Linus Sebastian has stated that he is unaware as to what content received the DCMA notice and he is unable to investigate while his account is suspended
     
    I can't imagine what it was that LinusTechTips has done to receive the DMCA violation. The LinusTechTips twitch channel solely hosts the weekly WAN show. Their show is original and from what I've seen doesn't contain any copyrighted material that does not belong to LMG.
    It seems extremely strange that Twitch would move to ban such a prominent partnered(?) channel without as much as a warning or clear explanation. Hopefully the suspension is only for the 24 hour period and we don't see any disruptions to the weekly WAN show.

    The WAN show has been hosted on twitch for a long time, but perhaps after this move by Twitch we could see it being moved to being hosted live directly on Youtube, or perhaps live on Floatplane (when functional enough to allow it) and then later uploaded to youtube as a recording.



    Update:
    Appears Linus has been able to make contact with some Twitch representatives on the issue. Hopefully this is a step towards the suspension being lifted.
    (Thanks to @Skiiwee29 & @VegetableStu)
    Update:
    The LinusTech Twitch channel is now back online. You can now browse pre-recorded video clips from old WAN show episodes and the channel should now show up in your followed channels list again. The suspension only lasted a period of 24 hours which was expected.
    No word yet on the cause for the suspension.
     
     
    I'll try and update the thread if/when there is some mainstream news articles available on the topic
    If you find any news articles you would like me to list in the main post or see any updates from LTT on Twitter (I don't have twitter account so I don't get updates), post them in the thread and tag me with @Spotty and I'll look at adding them in.

    Also even though this blade chassis doesn't require it a lot use 3 phase power. Newer hybrid blade servers I like much more e.g. Dell C6220

    The chassis is 10u's for 6 blades of dual L5630s, using passmark as the benchmark you'll get a 53k passmark score fully loaded up.
     
    Or... you can pickup (4) E5-2670s and put them in two systems with dual socket boards, and could even go 1u each for a total of 2u's for essentailly the same passmark (50K).
     
    If space is a concern, buying a really old blade system is not the way to go. Not to mention that 1u servers are loud, but blades are literally unbearable to be near IMO. 
  8. Agree
    miguelr reacted to SLAYR in Dell PowerEdge m1000e: Overkill?   
    Do you need more then 3 4u, 6 2u servers, or 12 1u servers? 
     
    Whitout knowing what you are doing with the servers noone can figure out whether or not it is overkill.

    I woudn't get one. Unless you need lots of computers, just get a few 2/1u servers.

    I understand I could just get a G3258 but why when I can get a i5-760 for like $20-$25... Also I can get like 16-24GBs of ram for like $15-$20. One of the servers will be modded. Also couldn't I say have 2 cores dedicated to one server and the other 2 towards the other? Or is that not how it works?

    Get spigot and bungeecord. Search up tutorials on how to use bungeecord - its what most server nodes use
    With the 16gb of ram - Its overkill. I ran multiple minecraft servers on a 4gb server. If you get it for cheap or you have it spare, go for it but if not then scale it down to 8gb or less.
    Minecraft servers dont usually leverage multiple cores it uses about 2 cores at the most. Try to get a newer generation i3 or pentium (g3258 is a great choice)
    You can use dot.tk to get a free .tk domain and then use the website to set up the ip -> yourthing.tk. Renember, you have to port forward..
