Turns out, the difference in the socket is just a few pins here and there, and you can make a 8th or 9th generation Coffee Lake CPU work on your Z170/270 board if you apply a few Kapton tape fixes and mod your BIOS,
Modders giving me a new reason to keep my ye olde z170 mobo instead of just making a new machine with all the nice hardware
The UK and the US struck 13 Houthi targets in several locations in Yemen on Thursday in response to a recent surge in attacks by the Iran-backed militia group on ships in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, three US officials said....
A Times visual analysis found that munition debris filmed at the scene was remnants of a GBU-39, a bomb designed and manufactured in the United States.
I even saw someone with a very old and active account and a mod of a big sub get perma banned by admins because he made a comment against Israel a few years ago.
Like straight up deleted everything. We only knew because revvedit managed to grab his last comment.
President Joe Biden promised Black voters Wednesday that he would appoint progressives to the US Supreme Court if elected to a second term, suggesting he expects vacancies on the high court over the next four years....
Not sure whether to poke at the fact that there probably won’t be any vacancies or that he would actually choose a progressive considering people are resigning from his administration every week over Gaza.
Despite its name, the infrastructure used by the “cloud” accounts for more global greenhouse emissions than commercial flights. In 2018, for instance, the 5bn YouTube hits for the viral song Despacito used the same amount of energy it would take to heat 40,000 US homes annually....
Dunno about Microsoft and AWS but AFAIK Google has been powering all their data centers with “renewables” for a very long time.
I’m pretty sure many of these data centers have dedicated power sources due to the high consumption, and opt for things like hydroelectric due to cost per watt.
And at least there’s a serious end product delivered, unlike crypto mining which wastes trillions of hashes to make a secure transactional network.

Its plausible that Bernie might have been successful on his own in recent elections had he made his own party considering how much support he got in the DNC’s primaries despite being a technical independent.
It’s not impossible for a new party to compete successfully, just very difficult.
If it took Imran Khan 20 years to create a populist party worthy of rivaling the military establishment in Pakistan who runs an actual fraudulent election every season, surely America can create a grassroots party worthy of dethroning the GOP and DNC.
Repeatedly voting those two parties and expecting ranked choice voting to become a thing is the real fallacy here. Neither party would pass legislation that weakens their stronghold on elections.
This all seems pretty tame compared to Pakistan getting couped for the nth time by the USA because they wanted to do trade with China and Russia because the USA kept screwing them over with infinite IMF loans and expensive LNG.
Now their democratically elected leader is in jail, the economy imploded, and they have a massive LNG shortage.
China is a bully, but they don’t infiltrate your entire government everyday like the CIA has been doing for several decades.
Really starting to think that if USS Liberty happened again, Biden still would not change anything despite not being able to cover it up like LBJ due to the modern age of media and internet.
A purported leak of 2,500 pages of internal documentation from Google sheds light on how Search, the most powerful arbiter of the internet, operates....
I still remember demoing how easily they can manipulate people by searching “Pakistan News” and the results being exclusively all Indian media outlet propaganda way back in 2016.
I really feel like they never got properly exposed for this just because it’s a search engine and not a social media, so people didn’t care enough about it. Also because Google was still top of the game in most results compared to other sites back then.
Long before I used vim, some dude shared a bunch of vim memes with “:q!” in them.
It was actually vi on some ye olde unix machine, but I remembered the meme and got out, searched up how to use vim, and then jumped back in to edit the file lol.
Ah okay I was confused for a sec because I couldn’t pick up the sarcasm of the original comment because too many people have been unironically sharing that sentiment, lol.
TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday that a “tragic mistake” was made in an Israeli strike in the southern Gaza city of Rafah that set fire to a camp housing displaced Palestinians and, according to local officials, killed at least 45 people....
Congress sitting on their ass and not utilizing the Leahy law which would curb the above.
Aside from large weapon sales and national budget plans, Biden gets exclusive power to approve or deny weapon shipments and sales below $100 million and $20 million for high tech.
