  • 100% untrue. While a North Bridge controller can detect and attempt to set the clock frequency, there is absolutely no way to tell if both pieces of a mismatched pair will actually support the timings suggested or set by the controller, which will almost certainly default to whatever the on-board memory supports.

    That along with the unknowns of whether it attempts to set channel ranks, which is almost certainly NOT an option to manually configure in a Thinkpad.

    Not sure where you heard otherwise, but you’ve been misinformed.

    This machine is also working with memory soldered on the board which comes with a whole host of other unknowns, which is why you look up what the timings are first and attempt to match that.


  • If the RAM timings are not exactly the same, you’re going to have instability issues. This is why ts always recommended to install pairs of the same exact model and brand, the clock timings.

    I doubt that BIOS is going to give you the specs you need, but somewhere you’ll likely be able to find the timings and compatible memory for this machine. You’ll generally need something faster than what’s installed so it can step it’s timings down to be more in sync.



  • All the same. There will be no appreciable difference in any of them at the level you’re interested that can’t be tweaked and tuned from the apps you use.

    Edit: though if you want long running game servers, a small minipc that draws a tiny amount of power is a good way to continuously keep the server portion running without wasting a ton of energy. The Intel N100 or the Ryzen 5 (forget which) can both run below 12W, which is about the same as an LED light bulb.








  • You need a router or a proxy. A proxy would be annoying, so a router is preferred.

    If you don’t have control of your edge router, just get a cheap Pi-type device, install OpenWRT, setup your VPN connections, then create a route on your network to point at this new device for whatever you need it for.

    If you simply want to use it at-will for certain things, you can put a proxy on it.

    As to your other issues, it sounds like your WG connection is just dropping, in which case it won’t automatically reconnect by default. OpenWRT has plugins that can monitor that and reconnect when it drops, or you can script it pretty quickly as well.



  • Am engineer. Know zero professional people in the engineering community who use AI browsers, and very few who even touch AI for anything aside from docs or stats.

    In my personal life I know zero people who use these browsers. I think this is just panic from the higher ups at Mozilla who have no idea what in the fuck the company should be doing or is about, even.

    Start making tools to give to people to combat this bullshit from the EU. Build a USABLE and decentralized chat app that people can actually use FFS. Build something like Proton and ACTUALLY BECOME SELF-SUFFICIENT.

    Others have eaten your lunch because of this exact thing. Do better.


  • I’ve never seen this “just” happen, but have seen it during events like switching from headphones to speakers and such.

    You may also have your app volumes linked to your master channels, meaning when you lower the sound on your master with something like a key combo, then it lowers the individual app volumes as well, which is generally not something you’d want enabled.

    Apps at full, and using PCM/Master channel for general volume is pretty much the “default”.
