Asmod4n··on AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D sells for more than 9800X3D, enthusiasts flock to AM4 DDR4
Mine runs at 60C when running Prime95 at full load, i got a open bench case though.

The 7000 series is designed to hit those loads, i wonder how your 5000 series can even reach that.

PCIe 3.0 x16 is enough for up to a ~5080, you only lose single digit percent fps.

when you game in 4K thats only relevant for games like factorio or city skylines.

base speed 32gb ddr 5 ram goes for around 800€, aka 4800 MT.
Asmod4n··on 1.5 TB of VRAM on Mac Studio – RDMA over Thunderbolt 5
all PCIe lanes combined in that machine can do over 1 terabit. Would be quite the networking beast.
Asmod4n··on Valve: HDMI Forum Continues to Block HDMI 2.1 for Linux
Couldn’t AMD just release that as firmware/binary blob and call that from the open source driver to circumvent the issue?
Asmod4n··on UniFi 5G
I’ve got their unifi mobile router 4g and am quite happy with it in conjunction with one of their routers which got two lan ports you can either run in primary/primary mode where it does load balancing or primary/secondary one where the latter only gets used when the main one has issues.

I just kinda wish multipath TCP or something similar would be more in use so you wouldn’t notice a swap in connection mid air.

Asmod4n··on Accepting US car standards would risk European lives
You can get charged for murder in Germany when killing someone with a car.
Asmod4n··on WinApps: Run Windows apps as if they were a part of the native Linux OS
then it would be illegal to use hyper-v, since windows is then run under a hypervisor.

You can't sign away your copyright in germany, you can only hand over the rights of distribution of your work.

Thank luck we aren’t in the Warhammer 40k universe yet.
Asmod4n··on How to stop Linux threads cleanly
When you are on Linux the easiest way is to use signalfd. No unsafe async signal handling, just handling signals by reading from a fd.
Asmod4n··on Dosbian: Boot to DOSBox on Raspberry Pi
While oled have 0ms pixel refresh time, input lag is still around 5-10ms.
Asmod4n··on German government comes out against Chat Control
You only become a Verdachtsfall when your organization is deemed to want to dismantle the state, get rid of rule of law or want to erase basic human rights.
Asmod4n··on Love C, hate C: Web framework memory problems
last time i checked, the glibc allocator doesnt ask the OS that often for new heap memory.

Like, every ~thousand malloc calls invoked (s)brk and that was it.

Asmod4n··on WinBoat: Windows apps on Linux with seamless integration
Only the home version has that issue.
Asmod4n··on German government comes out against Chat Control
He is just a bought troll, ignore him. Most of his comments got deleted from hn, just look at his profile. The ones he made here don’t even show up.

Edit: I mean the one with lol in his name.

The Verfassungsschutz disagrees with you.
Asmod4n··on Germany outfitted half a million balconies with solar panels
I got a “expensive” renewable only energy plan and it’s 31,4 cents per kilowatt hour in Germany. Conventional ones should be cheaper. So no idea where you got 40 cents from.
Asmod4n··on Germany outfitted half a million balconies with solar panels
Nuclear is the answer to no problem we face currently. It’s expensive, slow to build new plants (decades). It’s also not flexible in the way it’s useable.

Solar + battery storage on the other hand is super fast and easy to build, costs virtually nothing and leaves no toxic waste which can’t be recycled.

Nuclear fuel is also mostly only available from Russia, which no one wants as a trade partner.

Asmod4n··on Structured Procrastination (1995)
I’m, after 10 years of building a eco system of around 40 extensions for mruby, at the stage to start my first project using them.

Asmod4n··on Germany must stand firmly against client-side scanning in Chat Control [pdf]
There isn’t much difference between our current Chancellor and a AfD member of Parlament.
Asmod4n··on Ask HN: What are you working on? (September 2025)
I’m currently hacking away at a project which turns your keyboard into a clipboard manager, password vault and barcode reader as parts of it. I just need to come up with a better name than totally normal keyboard (:
Asmod4n··on Raspberry Pi 500+
It can be used as a usb gadget device, i am not aware of any SFF x86 PC that has such a chip.
Asmod4n··on Geizhals Preisvergleich Donates USD 10k to the Perl and Raku Foundation
Hm, I only miss one thing, sorting by price with shipping cost. Can’t see anything else that was removed, just changed.
Asmod4n··on Geizhals Preisvergleich Donates USD 10k to the Perl and Raku Foundation
They had some very recent UI overhauls, it looks more friendly now.
Asmod4n··on The GitHub website is slow on Safari
That's a good question, without looking into any of the code id say bandwidth cost goes higher when moving away from server side rendering since you have to send the code for client side rending to each client which connects.
Asmod4n··on Io_uring, kTLS and Rust for zero syscall HTTPS server
there is just one catch.

Using the feature to let io_uring handle buffers for you limits you to the mem lock limit of a process, which is 8MB on a typical debian install (more on others) And that's a hard limit unless you got root access to said machine.

Asmod4n··on How I Made Ruby Faster Than Ruby
if you want c extensions to get (de)optimized at runtime based on their usage patterns there is always ruby on graalvm from oracle.
