Totally agree. Have been there and done that quite a few times too.

Hopefully people with more of a clue than me will chime in… Meanwhile, my best swag is the filesystem had issues and had to do an fsck? If that’s the case it would boot quickly next time assuming a clean shutdown.
Were there any errors during boot?
Fastboot enabled in BIOS or no? (Not sure if this has anything to do with anything I’m just trying to look useful)
PS: the weird active time could maybe somehow be related to the filesystem being borked needing fsck? I’m not sure.
Load average of 400???
You could install systat (or similar) and use output from sar to watch for thresholds and reboot if exceeded.
The upside of doing this is you may also be able to narrow down what is going on, exactly, when this happens, since sar records stats for CPU, memory, disk etc. So you can go back after the fact and you might be able to see if it is just a CPU thing or more than that. (Unless the problem happens instantly rather than gradually increasing).
PS: rather than using cron, you could run a script as a daemon that runs sar at 1 sec intervals.
Another thought is some kind of external watchdog. Curl webpage on server, if delay too long power cycle with smart home outlet? Idk. Just throwing crazy ideas out there.
Not op. I installed windows 10 on my custom built desktop and my kids custom built desktop, on VM, etc. Have not had a problem and it was pretty simple overall. I’m sure some folks do have issues, though. Shit happens. Is windows 11 shittier for install? I’ve never had the desire to try :)
I’ve also installed various Linux distros on the above and a few other computers (Mint, Nobara, Fedora). Aside from Mint not working with my AMD RX 6600, no problems there either, really. And these distros installed easily.
Again, ymmv. I knew Mint would probably fail because the 5.19 kernel does not seem to like my GPU. That’s why I switched to Nobara in the first place (iirc the 6.x kernel wasn’t available at the time)
Good to know. Well I have 16G now that should give me plenty to spare.
I will have to try that once my ram upgrade gets here.
Well, you’re not wrong. I was away from my desktop when I commented and forgot btop looked so fancy.
For now I still prefer htop because I can see at a glance the stuff I’m most interested in (mem & cpu and process sort).
I’ll have to play with some of the other suggestions in the post…
I also am starting to play around with cockpit a little more for remote monitoring.
If I was that memory- and cpu-constrained I would be using other tools such as memstat, iostat, and cpustat.
htop because pretty colors and graphs.
Or top because it’s like muscle memory now.
That’s a paddlin anti-trust forced breakup!
The hero we need! Ty!
I’m not entirely sure why but Calibri has always mildly annoyed me. Maybe because it was the new default at one point and I preferred something else. Or maybe because I felt that the default font size should be 10 or 12 points not…11 (pffft huff) Maybe it was just misplaced resentment for having to use Office products (at work). The new one has kind of a fun look, though. Maybe I will enjoy it.
I finally did but…gawd turning a key is so much work!
Also watch out for AMD’s army of Neanderthal social media accounts on reddit, forums and youtube, they will be singing their own praises as usual.
Wat
Fellow AMD Neanderthal Army soldiers: any idea when I get my cool uniform and …paycheck?
Zen 4 needs to bring substantial IPC improvements for all workloads, rather than overpriced “3D” marketing gimmicks.
…
… the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D performs reasonably consistently under varying real world conditions.
Uhh… Aren’t… Aren’t these two statements kinda contradictory?
this isn’t a peer-reviewed paper in Nature, even though Nature is a peer-reviewed journal. Instead, it’s an “article” about a not-peer-reviewed paper (a “pre-print”) written by Google about their own product.
Slaps forehead …aaand I think I’ve read enough to form a conclusion lol.
I don’t think it is simply “huh this place looks sketch”. Not sure if you read the article.
The thing is, the criminals knew that Google routes rental cars along a typical route and so they ambush tourists violently along that route. For all I know the route may look fine.
Anyway, you don’t have to label neighborhoods. Just have the app route them differently…
…But wouldn’t the criminals catch onto that before long so that the new route becomes the ambush zone?
Maybe there is a solution like randomly choosing a particular path at different hours but the fewer alternate routes the less effective that will be. Criminals could simply stake out one route and wait a little longer before a victim passes by.
But is this really a mapping company’s problem to solve? Is the map app responsible for traveler security? What if you ask to be routed into or through a war zone (e.g. somewhere in Ukraine). Does the map app refuse? Warn you? Or what?
What if someone gets a paper map? Is the map maker responsible? How about the rental car employees?
Where does the responsibility of the tourist begin and end here?

That was Internet Explorer 20 years ago and look where we are now.
I personally can’t remember the last time I had issues with a site on Firefox in the last few years since I switched.
True… I think even if they don’t, it’s still potentially anti-competitive.
(Gawd, Imagine how life would be with gas station incompatibility with your car. Holy shit that would suck).
Yes except everyone knows YouTube has a massive, massive market advantage in that space. And the channel you want to watch isn’t on the others. And you know this too.
This is all I’ve run across on reverse engineering, so far but it is quite interesting.
