@Dr_Zin69 @verge @TomazZaman He just gained a potential large market

@verge So, did Tomaz just lose the US market? @TomazZaman @TomazZaman" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@TomazZaman

The US government just banned consumer routers made outside the US theverge.com/news/899172/fc…

@TrentTelenko Sorry but bullshit. The one, single sub 🇫🇷 keeps at sea 24/7 carries a minimum of “only” 96 warheads (up to 160 if no decoys are installed) representing 600 Hiroshimas. No one, not 🇷🇺 , 🇨🇳 or even the 🇺🇸, could withstand 600 Hiroshimas to the face in one go and not decompose

@JimmyThomist @GrandpaRoy2 SM fibre is, at 9um or so, smaller than MM at around 50um. Both end up clad to 125um, still too thin to use bare. So it is clad/sheethed to the sizes you are talking about the final size depending on application. SM can trivially do over 100km at the speed they are likely use

Laughs in knowing how fiber optics work.

Yippee-Ki-Yay from the bunker

@GrandpaRoy2 Every time I see someone talk about PVV-5A, it makes me think about this post by Swampy. May he rest in peace. x.com/Swampy_EOD_Ukr…

We are running our Balquhidder FTTH network on temporary generators for 3 days while @SSETransmission @SSE prepare the overhead power network for winter - tree clearing and deteriorating pole replacement. Thank you.

@anthonyrose Already forced to use 3rd party to file the exact same set of numbers that you used to put it in their simple VAT form. Same for corp tax have to pay accountant lots

Shocking news from Companies House: they're removing the ability for people to file annual accounts directly and will now force people to use paid providers. It's insane.

@KathrynPorter26 @Ed_Miliband example of one london datacentre, 2020 22p/kWh, 2025 still 44p/kWh. It is cheaper to host services in other countries

So you think a 15% reduction in 2 years will cut it? It won't You consistently make the same mistakes 🔹Renewables are more expensive not cheaper than electricity generated from gas and nuclear 🔹Harmonising carbon prices is increasing energy costs today 🔹Focusing on levelling the playing field with Europe ignores the fact EU industry is also not competitive on a global stage 🔹Already all other consumers are subsidising EIIs. You should recover these subsidies through taxation. If they work in making EIIs more profitable the Treasury will see receipts increase so it should also face the costs 🔹You seem to think the UK will make CCS work where everyone else has failed. This hubris will add further avoidable costs to bills 🔹You seem ignorant of the fact fusion needs to see 10x more heat gains just to generate the same energy as is used for plasma containment. It probably needs to be 100x better to be commercially viable. This is decades away Your policies are fairytale and fantasies

1/For too long high electricity costs have held back British businesses as a result of our reliance on gas sold on volatile international markets. Our Industrial Strategy will unlock the potential of industry by cutting electricity prices in key sectors. mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…

@KathrynPorter26 @Ed_Miliband I do not agree with the current plan to subsidise it, that as you say will increase power cost while letting oil/gas co's carry on profiting without covering their whole cost of biz.

@KathrynPorter26 @Ed_Miliband Didn't say I liked CCS but am open to any tech proving itself and in this case the best incentive to make it viable seems to be the profit goal of those who would use it. Whatabouting non dependent things is not helpful.

The Public Accounts Committee saying what most people knew already that Carbon Capture is expensive, unproven and will make energy bills higher Bills will be higher whether it works or not. 2/3 of the £21.7 bn @Ed_Miliband is throwing at this will be recovered through bills

@MactelecomN @Ubiquiti they don't ship flat packed? Not very efficient x.com/BogonsNet/stat…

@9600 @JoeSpeeds @henet Nobody should have to spend more time in an increasingly hot (Equinix want to raise their upper limit to 32C) and noisy DC than it takes to swap hardware. Sitting there on a console should be a HSE violation.

@9600 @JoeSpeeds @henet just because those legacy OS have persisted doesn't make them ideal (laments X where it was nicely separated). New things should be possible but we seem stuck.

“The technologist in me would prefer that VGA ports die in a dumpster fire and be replaced with something a bit more modern like mini-DisplayPort” Heard you and doing something about it.

@9600 @JoeSpeeds @henet Stop that too (disclosure: old school Sun Netra user. Serial or Ethernet for management the rest is nuisance)

@JoeSpeeds @bbzaaa @henet I thought it was because all BMC silicon has VGA out?

@JoeSpeeds @henet that's an effect not cause. Really should not need those and all the effort making ip kvm too. If you have to visit the server to operate it you've failed at datacentre.

@bbzaaa because datacenter carts
