Here's the deal from all the benchmarks I'm seeing. Ryzen does not keep up with Intel's IPC, but makes up for it with the ability to run at higher clocks at lower TDPs. Their multithreading implementation is superior to Intel HTT; from what I can tell, this is due at least in part to a very wide core (Zen has 10-wide issue; compare to Skylake which has 8-wide issue).

Does anyone know if there's an IP KVM switch that has a USB port or built-in LTE/4G modem support with a SIM card slot? Basically I need KVM access to a machine that is in a location with no internet connection and I need to troubleshoot it
@djsmiley2k Here's the scenario: I have a marine vessel in port at a remote location, they have an airgapped SCADA system that controls valves, tanks, reads output from engines and generators onboard, etc. This system is on its own LAN and in order to properly troubleshoot it, it needs to be on that LAN so it can talk to the server.
If I plug it into another network it won't work the same so ideally I would need a KVM switch to control the machine remotely. An IP KVM switch would be best and it would need to be connected to the internet. I do have VSAT (satellite) internet onboard but the speed and latency makes it really hard to work with which is why I want a 4G/LTE connection instead.
And the issue is hardware related, the machine is BSOD'ing and wont boot into windows 100% of the time. KVM would be the way to go. I would go on site but these types of issues happen every month or 2, would be nice to have a solution going forward so I don't have to travel. Would save time and money

Okay great... except I specifically selected NZ and the monitor/serial I was having trouble with. Why would it put me through to the US?

Congratulations and uh-oh. You've stumbled across one of the better things about ZFS, but also committed a configuration sin.
First, since you are using raidz1, you only have one disk worth of parity data. However, you had two drives fail contemporaneously. The only possible result here is data ...

@allquixotic I'd rather keep Windows on bare metal personally... hm. Running Linux in a VM isn't so bad except for having to remember to start it up :\
also shows how inept the marketing goons are at Microsoft that the perfectly named Windows Subsystem for Linux gets named something absolutely wonky like "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows"
not sure where the GPL would play in; the thing they're emulating is the user<->kernel ABI of Linux, which is not GPL'able, even by the FSF's admission
you can write a proprietary, or BSD-licensed kernel that supports Linux's user<->kernel ABI and it's 100% legal
basically so that when the x86 processor starts executing native code from a Linux/ELF binary and that code makes a syscall, that syscall can find its endpoints and have them run and behave as expected
it's actually really similar to what BSD did with their Linux ABI layer, I think
or even Brand/Z on Solaris
LX brand for Solaris I mean
but yeah, Solaris literally has a Solaris equivalent of WSL that's basically the "Solaris Subsystem for Linux" and it works really well (thanks to Joyent) - same design almost
the Linux 2.6.x/ELF (mostly amd64, little bit of (fading) x86) ABI format is quickly gaining traction as an important binary platform... almost as important as the universally hated/adopted Win32/x86
Solaris wants Linux's ABI because Linux has so much traction as a platform and has so many binaries built for it that are tough or impossible to build for Solaris.
Linux wants Solaris's filesystem because ZFS is the best filesystem in the world
I wonder if Linux userspace ZFS utilities that integrate with libzfs work on the Solaris kernel through the LX brand :D
I think it'd be hard to write an SPL-for-Windows from scratch because the kernel source is closed, and certain very low-level things, like forking processes properly, are hard or impossible to do right without being able to change the kernel source as the WSL team did
they not only had to write two new drivers (extremely complex ones that I don't honestly think would be possible without the Windows source code) but also change the kernel base image, whiiiiich you couldn't do
You should come to Brazil this Friday! It's the beginning of carnaval! Lots of noise, sweaty people, crowded streets (AND OH BOY I DO MEAN CROWDED), alcohol, more noise, more alcohol, people behaving promiscuosly, drugs, STDs, more noise and alcohol...
@noitsbecky I wonder if there's anything worth your while to bring and resell, but tbh I have no idea what relative price differences are. And it's probably too much trouble.
@noitsbecky Oh. TRS might benefit you on the way out.
Fixed it by yanking it around a bit, but they may be coming tomorrow/Friday to replace the heatsink/fan assembly
Which is fine cause the early units had misaligned heatsinks anyway (hence the overheating) and I was planning on getting that done regardless
@Bob Eh, half the falling apart is cause the last engineer left out half the screws, part of the heatsink, and broke a third of the plastic clips securing the base
@noitsbecky Well. If you're interested in TRS-ing it. Dell has a 20% off thing going on now here. Not sure what the deal is with import taxes going back to the UK though.
@Burgi Eh. I'd rather not go into a blaming arg here since apparently it was borderline enough that (with history?) a mod elsewhere agreed. But I wasn't even awake then and don't really know what happened.
