Lots of nice second hand xeon workstations going cheap. Given the cost of memory they are often a bargain. The only catch with the Dells for example is the lame but also proprietary power supplies.

Travel@crazypeople.online•what animal is so cool that you would travel to see it?English
3·15 days agoTarsiers are strange, with large brown eyes and fragile and only found in a few remaining wild locations. Also they are distant relatives on the same tree as humans genetically and the other dry nosed primates. So I think worth the trip to see some if you are already in South east Asia. I visited the Tarsier Sanctuary on Bohol in the Philippines a few years ago. The founder used to catch them for pets or zoos as a young man but has now devoted his life to saving them.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What diseases do we never think of but should really know how to spot the signs of?English
5·21 days agoNot a disease as such but a condition. Sepsis aka blood poisoning, is a significant one for older folk. A fast heartbeat with low blood pressure, rash etc. It can be rapidly deadly but is not so easy to identify. About Sepsis warning signs
Treatment early enough definitely saves lives so it’s worth knowing about
Not adding the Sun in the position of the primary light source till the 4th iteration was a major clue.
Trying to install remote desktop multiuser in server manager, for win2025 the installer fails. I find out that a security update broke it over a year ago. Uninstalled all updates then rebooted and it works. Not to mention the constant wack a mole admins do to disable unwanted marketing additions to the taskbar and start menu via group policy and registry hacks. Clearly what windows needs next is an AI powered going dark mode to randomly break features it thinks you don’t need. Because even that would be less confusing than what we have now.

Definitely students need more sleep, right through to university. According to this study humans are still adolescent from 9 till 32. Scientists identify five ages of the human brain over a lifetime Want to protect human potential ? That would be a good starting point. It’s sensible even from a purely utilitarian profit focused view of study and work.

On the other hand the planet might not all be here without the extra gravity from dark matter so it’s still all good.

Apple@lemdro.id•Hackintosh enjoying its last hurrah, now supporting macOS TahoeEnglish
4·2 months agoIt worth mentioning the environment benefits of the Opencore project that allows this. It keeps older Intel Macs secure, extending their useful life as well as do it yourself hackentoshes. Obviously Apple would prefer you buy new models every few years but for high end Intel Macs it’s a good tradeoff till Linux supports them better.

Seems like they got it straight from the university press release here. I guess we can cut them some slack for using a bit of AI given the recent job losses at that university. They are reported to have lost around 4000 full time staff places in the last year, part of Australia’s recent cut backs to universities that don’t get much international reporting. That’s may hurt their ability to do quality research. Professor Archer noted that "quite clearly, from the many fascinating animals that we’ve already found in this deposit since 1983, we know that with more digging there will be a lot more surprises to come,”. So lets hope they continue to get support.







Palawan in the Philippines is excellent for very remote tropical beaches but also it’s culture.
