Still better than android clock

i have a z370 board that refuses to cold boot, so it'll power on, beep, shut down a moment, restart and then it's fine

does this on two different power supplies :iiam:

whatever, it's in the server now so it shouldn't power off

for the price of a ryzen 3xxx setup you can have a threadripper 2, after the price breaks. i'm just sayin'

p.s. linux can read hpfs

:confused:

The cheapest TR2 is like 660, the Ryzen 7 3700X is like 330?

What's the point at which AMD "gitted gud" (as the kids say these days)? I know the Zen+ and Zen2s are way better than Intel's stuff now but how far back does that go?

literally zen2, and better than Intel only in certain metrics. the intels still have better single thread performance and higher clocks (on the higher end) but it's great they're finally feeling some heat that's not of their own doing

I kinda wished I got a 2700 instead of a 9900k last november, i would have saved a bunch of cash and been able to drop in an 12c or 16c in it now, but I have to say I've had basically zero problems with my system and amd is still buggy for a lot of people.

I've seen this behavior on some HP desktops when you install a PCIx GPU. at first boot, I imagine the board is reconfiguring itself from on-board to add-in graphics, it halts, then starts up like normal. that first quick boot doesn't load the BIOS as far as I can tell. Doesn't directly help your problem but a similar behavior that is as intended.

bulldozer was literally slower than k10, clock for clock. how do you go backwards, but not cancel the product?

oh hey, follow up on the dumb windows 10 1903 update issues I was having; turns out, in its vague way, windows was trying to tell me a driver was bad but couldnt figure it out specifically so i had the opportunity to learn how to pull apart a win 10 install which was kind of interesting

the result was removing the garbage asus software that came with my mobo. this is a tech gently caress on my part because I should have known better when the related usb 3 charging functionality broke the 1809 install. this is probably the most frustrating uninstall ive done, but i sort of saw it as a good challenge to see if I could remove it without wiping the drive

at least the netburst was sold side by side with new versions of the prior p3 designs until they got the clock rate and cache up

amd shitcanned k10 and dumped bulldozer on the market and then seemed surprised when they lost 90% of their server chip sales

before bulldozer obliterated their business amd had a pretty healthy server market share that was wildly profitable

it basically propped up the rest of their company

tar has a complicated history and Linus isn’t involved

you see it has to b exactly one way or else a script written for system III in 1982 might behave oddly and then the gnu maintainers would commit seppuku

and cp and mv overwrites without asking too, it's just that most distros aliases those commands to cp -i and mv -i

Wow I was grumpy earlier.

If you're going to grouse about Unix commands I recommend ln -s, a command that even the grayest of beards still need to look up the ordering for each use.

lol what. the second part are the flags not a 'command' just like any other, its just youve never thought about it because you copy and paste it in from google

'tar cvzf' <--- you notice that 'f' there. the thing directly after that is the archive file. tar actually only accepts one source. RTFM

it doesnt have a 'destination' at all. youre explicitly telling tar to save it to a file rather than dump it out to the tty
