    Why did we abandon hydrogen cars so quickly?

    Green and purple/pink are environmentally friendly and should contribute to lessening demand for carbon. Blue and turquoise are cleaner than straight up burning fossil fuels but still rely on fossil fuels: In theory, pink hydrogen could be very, very cheap because the higher the temperature...

    Post your cooling.

    Ryzen 7950X buried under an Ice Giant ProSiphon. Gives an idea of how much of a chonker that thing is.

    Why did we abandon hydrogen cars so quickly?

    Sounds like converting from gasoline to hydrogen means 30% of the range for equal power, roughly: 700 psi just isn't dense enough. :(

    Random Password Generator

    Updated to version 1.1.5 where I finally got around to fixing a crash on multicore processors (the more cores the more likely it is to happen) where a racing condition would cause two threads to submit a password at the same time and the second would make it crash. It now properly locks the...

    AMD 24.3.1 Drivers Unlock RX 7900 GRE Memory OC Limits, Additional Performance Boost Tested

    It's entirely possible that your specific chip was binned for GRE because the memory controller couldn't handle 7900 XT spec. I did a lot more digging into what happened. Short version is this: 1) November 2022, the performance export ban was issued that mentions the 600 GB/s rule on...

    AMD 24.3.1 Drivers Unlock RX 7900 GRE Memory OC Limits, Additional Performance Boost Tested

    The GDDR modules installed on the card are up to the AIB partner's discretion so long as they meet or exceed reference spec. In this case, PowerColor (see OP) has much more capable Samsung chips installed compared your ASRock model. In short, ASRock skimped on the GDDR and PowerColor did not...

    AMD 24.3.1 Drivers Unlock RX 7900 GRE Memory OC Limits, Additional Performance Boost Tested

    We know *exactly* why: https://hackaday.com/2022/11/09/chinese-chips-are-being-artificially-slowed-to-dodge-us-export-regulations/ Obviously this exceeds the rule so this driver might actually make AMD cards non-compliant in China.

    ENERMAX Intros PlatiGemini, The world's First 80 PLUS Platinum PSU with ATX 3.1 and ATX12VO Standard

    blah blah blah California Energy Commission blah blah blah idle power consumption blah blah blah a PSU can't efficiently break out and deliver 5VSB, 3.3V, 5V, +12V, and -12V while staying under the new regulation requirements blah blah blah pre-built computers sold in California with memory...

    Why did we abandon hydrogen cars so quickly?

    Hydrogen burns other stuff, like the skin of the blimp: Well documented that it went up in flames. The problem with rail in the USA is that it's backwards. Infrastructure projects need to start with making communities walkable, then connecting walkable communities via bus/tram, then...

    US President Biden Signs Off on the CHIPS and Science Act

    The main incentive behind this is to secure chip supply for military equipment. I just hope it actually nets results in diversifying production.

    Your favourite game character ever

    These are the ones that come to my mind in this order: Splinter Cell's Sam "!@#$%^&" Fisher (quote from Conviction). I was utterly distraught when they didn't use Michael Ironsides for the voice over in Blacklist. :cry: The games all touch on the subject of what it's like to be a super spy...

    www.worldcommunitygrid.org is what it should be but there's nothing to get again. Apparently there's more hiccups in getting tasks out. :(

    Seems to be all fixed here too. Tasks are coming and going as they should. :D

    TPU's WCG/BOINC Team

    It does that whenever there is a problem, and it additively grows the time for each deferral as to not overload the communication servers. AFAIK, didn't even get any work yet.
