Just look at the bit rate of what you are streaming and multiply it by 3 then add a little extra for overhead.

But the article explains that there is a technical reason.

themachine ,

So you believe that the performance improvement and power saving is not worth creating a new standard?

themachine ,

I mean I'm not sitting here defending soldered on ram but your unnecessary aggression and sarcasm in your previous responses overshadows the fact that while solder on ram sucks for the upgrade and repair market the underlying tech has very tangible improvements and now we can maintain that improvement and the upgrade and repair functions.

I agree, soldered ram is bad. But I disagree that LPDDR ram is fundamentally bad and this improvement allowing it to be modular while maintaining its improvements is a very good thing.

As far as your complaints of battery life on your thinpad goes, there is much more to battery life than the consumption of the memory but naturally every part plays a role and small improvements in multiple places result in a larger net improvement. I'm assuming you're running linux which in my experience has always suffered from less than optimal power usage. I'm far from an expert in that particular area but its always been my understanding that it is largely caused by insufficient fireware support.

As a whole this looking at this article in a vacuum i only see good things. A major flaw with lpddr has been address and i will be able to expect these improvements in future systems.

HDD spins but OS doesnt see mountable disk

The primary OS for this disk was Unraid. Its formated in BTRFS. I don't think either of those matter. The disk spins and worked before the reboot. But now. No matter what machine, port or cable I use its not mountable. Is there anything I can try? I was going to attempt Spinrite on it however it doesn't see anything either....

themachine ,

What exactly do you mean by "not mountable"?

themachine ,

Debian for all things.

themachine ,

Add a test folder, add some data, delete the test root folder and see if it deletes the data.

Nextcloud/CardDav/iOS trouble

I am having some trouble with a Nextcloud server. I set up a digitalocean droplet to test contact syncing for work. I went with the setup that I use at home, which is Yunohost and Nextcloud. This was/is working fine to sync contacts with iOS using the built-in support for CardDav accounts in iOS....

themachine ,

Error message? Nextcloud logs?

Can't tell you whats happening without information about what's happening other than "it doesn't work".

themachine ,

Is self hosting a valid answer?

I host my own email.
