Is the #AMD #Threadripper of today as stable and reliable as most #Workstation #CPUs are expected to be, or are they the type of #CPU you're meant to replace in less than a decade like consumer & #Prosumer chips?

The Forgotten Commodore 900: A Look At A Rare Prototype

https://hackaday.com/2023/02/25/the-forgotten-commodore-900-a-look-at-a-rare-prototype/

Of the computers produced and prototyped by Commodore, most people are likely well-acquainted with the PET, VIC-20, C64 and C128, as well as the never released Commodore 65. Of these systems many examples and plentiful of documentation exist, but probably among the most rare is the Commodore 900

This is a win for #selfhosting, but previously we've seen the transition from #mainframes & terminals, to #PCs, to #thinclients, to #workstations, to the #cloud, so I don't expect this to last.

Still, it gives people more options. Tiny service that doesn't have any info you wouldn't publish on the front page of the newspaper? Go for the free tier on a public cloud!

Address books, photos, videos, and the like can go on your #nextcloud server. Use whatever is appropriate.

I also need to order some longer cables on payday, I don't have enough longs to do good cable management.

I might work on a blog rant about the #unix on Desktop = #Workstation claim, albeit with a little nuance, that said, #workstations sold today aren’t necessarily free of Windows or #Linux, #Apple’s #UnifiedMemory lacks the Error Correction that #ECCRAM does and it might come to #MacPro’s after they dump #IntelXeon completely, and so on.

Maybe it’s just me, but I think we should have Legal Definitions & Distinctions about the differences between REAL #Workstations and High End #Prosumer #computers that aren’t determined by Tech Business Leaders.

"There are many people running Linux (and possibly more saliently FreeBSD) servers today who learned and polished their skills on this stuff. There are multiple forms of value in keeping old machines running: educational value, in seeing how things were done. Lessons in performance optimization, resource usage, scalability, and so on".

What did Unix fans learn from the end of Unix workstations?

Setup question!! How many screens you rockin’ these days?? I’m curious to hear about prefs across use case, coding, design, writing etc

Most of my screen time is spent coding. I’ve moved off the multi-screen setup in favour of a 43” 4K 4:4:4 chroma TV monitor. I have vision issues and the larger display can really help me. Its nice to have a wide display - but also one that has enough vertical real estate for reading logs or large code windows. How about you?

Just like sci-fi movies are more epic in IMAX, Pop!_OS COSMIC is even more epic on large monitors!
