It wouldn’t take much effort on their side since they can just quote iFixit. With batteries being considered disposable items, fragile glass on both sides and phones lasting longer and longer I think it’s fair to factor in the cost of repair.

If you want to spawn in that many blocks you should use a plugin which doesn’t block the main server thread. Something like WorldEdit with the async mode should work nicely. A raspberry pi 3 can spawn millions of blocks using that.

For a reference/blower design R9 290 90+C is completely normal, they ran extremely hot and sounded like a jet engine. However the temperature doesn't seem to affect the cards longevity as AMD rated it for that temperature and my R9 290 is still working 6 years later. I would recommend you reduce the power target and underclock it for general use, -20% for both keeps it in the mid 80s without shredding your ears. Source

Going by the recommended specs the performance you are getting for 1080p high seems normal. Lowering your graphics settings might have you running into some other bottleneck. Are all the cores being loaded equally? https://www.tomshardware.com/news/cyberpunk-2077-system-requirements-official-plus-our-recommendations

It will only encrypt the main linux partition. Manjaro's boot partition (It will need one if it doesn't exist yet) and the Windows installation will remain unencrypted.

There is no direct evidence yet but if AMD had worked a miracle and caught up with NVIDIA in one generation it would have been a major part of their launch marketing.

The slide says 300W Total Board Power.

You might want to check the performance of your SD card, some cards provide decent sequential speeds but fall apart under concurrent writes. Take a look if the yellow indicator LED is busy while you experience the hangs. From my experience chromium is quite usable on a Pi 3 if you temper your expectations and don’t open a bunch of new tabs at the same time (chromium tried to write to the cache and locks everything up). Don’t get me wrong, a $20 Core 2 prebuilt and an SSD will give you a vastly better experience but the experience isn’t unusable on the 3 or newer. Have they fixed the crash on launch issue? Last time I tried it the newer builds of Firefox would crash and ESR was a pre-quantum build.

The Raspberry Pi 4 uses A72 cores with benchmarks putting it at about twice the performance of the 3B+ (including the 1.5GHz vs 1.3GHz difference in clockspeed). For tasks which aren't CPU bound the Pi does quite well. Now that the Pi 4 offers gigabit ethernet and USB 3 you set up a fairly decent file server which only consumes 5W (excluding drives). Even the original Pi which uses the same CPU as the original iPhone does well as a PiHole. The Raspberry Pi launch site was hosted on Raspberry Pis. At the end of the day a Pi is just another (slower, ECC-less) computer.

You could try erase the entire disk which should prevent GParted spending a long time trying to find partitions. Note: This will erase the target disk, make sure it's the right one. Run lsblk which should output something as follows: $ lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT sda 8:0 0 465.8G 0 disk ├─sda1 8:1 0 529M 0 part ├─sda2 8:2 0 100M 0 part ├─sda3 8:3 0 16M 0 part └─sda4 8:4 0 465.1G 0 part sdb 8:16 0 238.5G 0 disk ├─sdb1 8:17 0 500M 0 part /boot/efi ├─sdb2 8:18 0 500M 0 part /boot └─sdb3 8:19 0 237.5G 0 part Look for your 2TB disk, it's probably named something like sdc or sdd Run dd to erase the disk, substituting <YOUR DISK> with the three letters you found in the previous step. Again, check you have the right disk: sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/<YOUR DISK> bs=1M status=progress This will take a couple of hours. Once complete try open GParted again, the drive should be selectable in the dropdown menu on the right and appear as unformatted. If that doesn't work run dmesg and look for errors in the output.

All downloading tools need to be updated to handle how YouTube now represents the information they need. Until then they simply won't work. I don't see how this is stealing someones work. In all likelihood any videos downloaded are only used when offline or when the original has been taken down. In that case the content creator won't miss out on any revenue.

Profile picture does not check out. It sounds more like in needs a complete power down rather than just landing since even on the ground these nodes will be running.

Huh, very strange indeed.

Time to become a volcanologist then.

Are you using other peripherals? Storage devices in particular eat up quite a bit of the energy budget. Are you using good quality cables? Let's assume it is drawing 10W headless without any other devices attached. It therefore must disperse around 10W in the form of heat. 10W is close to the 15W of a U series chip in a laptop. A laptop will need a decently sized heatsink to keep it cool while the Pi will make do with one the size of a finger nail. Another comparison would be the Mate 9. It drew around 8W under full load but despite being mostly made out of metal could not sustain that power draw. Source Source

Just because it is rated for that power draw doesn't mean it will always draw that much. Initial benchmarks show power usage around 2W higher than the 3B so ~33% more. The rest will be split up between external devices. For a more than two fold increase in performance this is a small price to pay, if you really need a lower power draw just lower the frequency. I do admit though that they are beginning to reach the end of the acceptable power draw range. Source

I would say no. In the picture you can see two smaller hubs near the ports, a Pi 3 only has 1. Remember to buy a heatsink. Even just scanning libraries will push it into the 70C range.

Get some phones Install Study Install app to simulate random interactions ??? Profit

I can holely agree with that.

So all the criminals are just going to obfuscate their usage while everyone else is kicked off? Fantastic

It's certainly better than a trashcan but it still seems a step back from the pre-2013 Mac Pro design.

That is like saying that I've hidden all my money somewhere on earth but it isn't definitely under my house. Remember that a random password can produce every password, therefore an attacker cannot restrict the set of passwords to try in any way. If you want further evidence that declaring that the key is random have a look at practically any cryptographic algorithm. The keys randomly generated in order to prevent the attacker restricting the set of values he has to try. The password manager will require a password each time you open Firefox after completely closing it. While not being fantastic it's better than nothing and should improve once the replacement arrives.
