AORUS X399 XTREME MOTHERBOARD with LINUX (GUIDANCE NEEDED)
I've just recently finished my custom pc build with two GEFORCE RTX 2080 TI's that are plugged into my X399 XTREME MOTHERBOARD. I'm running the threadripper AMD 16 core processor.

I'm installing CentOS Linux and I need a way to manually control the built-in left/right FANS on the GEFORCE RTX 2080 TI cards. I know I'm fully capable of running Linux I'm just a bit nervous because I'm using this high end motherboard. As a result I will loose the ability to run the windows software that allows me to control those GPU fans.

Can someone provide me with some useful guidance on how I can achieve this control? Does the motherboard manufacture provide a software support package I could development my own driver? Is there a open source GPU fan controller out there for CentOS that would give me this control?

What are you trying to say here? It's OK to kill unarmed drug users, but not unarmed crazy people?

I don't think it is OK in either case and I'm putting my money where my mouth is. I live in the tenderloin and walk everywhere, so I get approached by aggressive people who are acting weird and scary everyday. So far I have never even considered shooting them.
Why more feasible?
I hadn't watched broadcast TV for a while (lack of time), but when I did I'd just google whatever the teaser was, to see if it was worth waiting for. Very seldom would they have an exclusive breaking story that wasn't already all over the internet.

ROC – Resuscitation Outcomes Consortium datum were gathered between June 1, 2014 and May 31, 2015 and includes EMS-assessed and EMS-treated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest from multiple regions of the US.

According to the ROC:

Approximately 356,461 people in the US experienced an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (347,922 adults, 7,037 children under age 18)

22,520 of those 356,461 were witnessed by bystanders

12.4% survived to hospital discharge

Of the EMS patients who experienced non-traumatic cardiac arrest outside a hospital, and did not have bystander intervention, 10.8% survived until hospital discharge

I grew up in a very conservative, southern, rural area. And we had fall break and never any mention of Columbus Day. In other words, if you called fall break Columbus day, no one would have cared. It just didn't come up. So I don't think revering Columbus has much to do with conservative vs liberal as much as certain ethnic groups like Italian Americans claiming him as one of their own.
Yeah, I think those stats are polluted by Google's own misguided attempts to integrate it with everything.

For active users, Google+ is basically the hub from which they strike out to the rest of the Web.
I meant on the parent's point that it be top rated liveable city worldwide, which to me can't possibly rhyme with bad public transit and nothing reachable by foot. At least if you use a workdwide benchmark. But I've never been so maybe I just don't have a sense for it!
Running a kitchen is real work.

I was riveted by an interview with a 5-star chef that decided to fix public school lunches. She's as much an engineer and accountant and diplomat and project manager as a chef. How she repeatedly figured out how to make healthy, fresh meals that kids loved is testament to humanity ingenuity and can-do attitude.

For instance, to stretch their food budget, they'd buy apples in season and store them in leased fridges.

Sorry, I can't quickly refind the interview. IRCC, it was on Chow food network (?) and the chef moved from NYC to Portland OR.
The half-of-salary thing is a bit rich. Tech people unknowingly push up their second or third sigma downside in America and cost of living is hard to compare. In America you're more likely to get violently harmed. More likely to become truly poor. More likely to develop life-long medical conditions. Don't have actuarially balanced government pension (SS accounting is off book, CPP is fully funded). Higher net-debt-to-GDP. Broken political system. It's a pretty long list of nice-to-haves up here.

If you're in the class of programmer than can half your salary by moving to Canada you're still going to be earning at the very least $120k in Toronto, and that's all that shitty. I continue to choose to live in a common wealth (in the old sense of the term) for a reason.
But how would our species conceive of the idea of emissions and the effects thereof without first creating emissions and observing their effects?

I think the issue has more to do with the Cassandra effect and the tendencies of some to not consider or want to act on potentially catastrophic situations if they believe it imperils their own more immediate well-being or status.
All sorts of things could kill people in exactly the right circumstances. A handful of people have probably died after losing control of their vehicle swerving around someone's dog that wandered into the street. Just because something can add the final straw to a situation causing a bad thing to happen doesn't mean the likelihood is high enough to be worth regulation.

Considering how many drones are in operation ans how many accidents haven't happen I think we should err toward no license required under a certain altitude over private property (the same altitude at which you need to put a red light on a structure in that area sounds like a food starting point).
The effective altruism perspective is to make as money as possible doing whatever, then use that to fund noble causes. At the individual level it's the Wall Street quant who donates his income. At the corporate level, it's FB using ad money to create the Chan-Zuckerberg Intiative to cure cancer.
Certainly possible; I'll let the OP address how much I've mischaracterized, but I've read the first statement as "Explain to me how this is SO dangerous that we need to regulate/do something about it", and I've made a point that other things which are in that danger category (for example, cars) are in fact regulated and licensed.

I feel it is more likely that the OP and yourself, have a different categorization of the danger of drones than I do. If the claims are there are other activities that dangerous which we don't regulate, please offer an example. A priori, it is likely we may disagree if they're in the same category of risk or not :-/

I think drones are close to the level of dangers of cars. I would be curious which other vehicles of that speed and potential for danger a person can control that are not regulated or licensed.

If the question is why FAA specifically, I guess it makes sense to me that agency in charge of flying things would be the one; may not make same intuitive sense to others.

(for the record, if you say "electric scooter", I think those should be licensed like regular scooters as well :)

Note that I've flown a $40 hand-sized drone, a $100 1-lb foot-sized drone, and a Mavic Air; so my experience is limited - but I really feel Mavic Air can easily kill a person with a moment's slip of attention, and it's ridiculous I'm allowed to just woosh with it around right now :S. I would personally _want_ to take a class, learn, and be licensed and demonstrate that I'm responsible. I think insurance would be a reasonable requirement as well, while we're at it... unpopular opinion I'm sure :)
There's been no legislative change, but the the Trump administration appears to be enforcing the rules as strictly as possible. Per this article from Marketplace (https://www.marketplace.org/2018/10/05/business/recent-immig...), they've ended expedited processing of H-1Bs, they're questioning more H-1B applications and they're denying more H-1B applications. They are definitely making it as hard as possible for H-1Bs within the current rules.
If you stock it from the front, then there could be a couple gallons in the back that never get bought. Unless they let the stock run out completely before restocking.

Plus with thing like milk, it is a real pain to push several gallons uphill to put something else in front (ever try to put a milk container back on the sloped shelf? Takes a couple hands and some fidgeting to do it).

60-day visa + one 30 day renewal within Thailand; after that, a border run (to Vietnam, Laos, etc.) to get another 60-day.

Rinse, repeat.

You can get a business visa or a social visa (volunteer work) to avoid the hassle of border runs, but most just go with a tourist visa and periodically leave/take a break from Thailand.
I would absolutely say the top. They started meme culture, which has absolutely taken over most of the social media sites.

/pol/ started the extreme Trump support, and made supporting him fun and memey, ultimately leading to /r/The_Donald, and his eventual election to POTUS. That has had quite a large effect on the world.

They've done gobs and gobs of things related to VG, hoaxes, cultural obstruction, etc.

They are quite influential, just not in the way we typically think about influence.

you cannot prove the negative (realistically). If you have a vulnerability, you must treat it as though it has been exploited.
Thanks for sharing! One quick question: in the methodology section, you mention that the results are from a median value out of repeated runs. While I get that you run JITted code, you also mention that it makes the runs isolated from GC side-effects.

Just out of curiosity, what did you do to ensure that GC would not interfere with the execution while the tests are running?
You can't prove a negative. All you can do is hope that your logs are not tampered with and that they show that nobody used the hole that you are aware of.
RIP. Like so many of Google’s high profile efforts (anyone remember Wave? Glass, etc), a bunch of good ideas and great tech brought down by an utter failure to understand the human element/social psychology angle.

Google+ was dead in the water from day one. You don’t beat Facebook at social by building a slightly different product with some cool ideas like Circles. Going for feature parity was a mistake. Instead they should have tried to identify a niche where Facebook was failing (say, intimate private sharing, or the antithesis of the narcissist fest) and build up a loyal core of rabidly passionate users, then slowly expanded from there. Kind of like how Facebook started out as a platform for elite universities, then high schools, then workplaces, then the world.

This approach would have been hard to sell internally at Google given the pressure to release a “Facebook killer.” But people always forget that the way to build a platform is to start by nailing a niche use case and then expanding. Even the Apple App Store only came to dominate because it was based on a hit product, the original iPhone.

Anyway, kudos to Google for finally admitting defeat. Hopefully management learned something and they hire some people who understand humans so that their brilliant engineering capacity doesn’t get wasted again.

Sure thing.

The framing of your reply hinges on an unstated assertion:

“It is always ‘right’ to name and shame a corporation.”

I contradict that assertion in my plea, which results instead in this assumption:

“Consider the ethics of the situation before naming and shaming a corporation.”

Having laid out that, I will next address the literal question asked: “doxxed”, as you correctly identified when forming your reply, is used here as a shorthand for “digging up information about an entity that was intentionally withheld from you, with intent to shun and/or shame that entity once you discover who they are”. The definition you are using more restrictively says “person” rather than “entity”, which is certainly understandable.

I hope this helps you comprehend my position better.
I'm quite skeptical of that 87%, because it's almost exclusively a question of how the energy was generated and odds are, it was generated and shunted from fossil sources that don't have that efficiency. So even by that metric it's 87% of whatever engine you used to make the energy for the pumps.

Whereas even bad batteries have 99% efficiency even counting discharge loss. The problems with those are that they rely on relatively rare metals associated with conflict regions, hence my hopes that we reach a sodium-based battery that will have similar properties to lithium.
I guess I'm a fuckup, because I really like nice weather.
I still don't understand why G+ never caught on. For me FB is wayyyy too busy with panes and club, and groups, and businesses, and news, and election interference, and the bird site at 140, and now at 280 was just not enough. I always found G+ to be the perfect balance between the two. It really does boggle my mind that no one likes it. The only thing I can think, is Google didn't find a way to appeal to peoples' egos enough, since that's what social media seems to be about for most people.
Cookpad?
Because the vegan diet is not actually healthy, as demonstrated by the fact that there are no traditional cultures that follow a strict vegan diet. (Even the Hindu vegetarian diet relies on ghee and dairy). And almost all people who go vegan wind up going back to eating animal products.

My own experience is that giving up all or even most fats was very bad for my mental and emotional health (years of depression and anxiety, improved greatly by going to a more traditional diet), and eating eggs regularly made me much healthier; it fixed my low HDL cholesterol, for example.

I don't intend to become vegan and I don't recommend it for my family. However, I do recommend to everyone that they get far away from the SAD (standard American diet), junk food, and excess meat consumption.

The author specifically recommends NOT to throw the ball in the aggrieved person's court.

> If you’re close enough to the survivors (or if they don’t seem like they have a lot of support), spend time with them. Don’t put the ball in their court. It’s a very rational feeling for grieving folks to say, “No one REALLY wants to be around someone in my state of mind — so I’ll spare them that.” You have to be pushy, which feels a bit unnatural when you’re trying to be respectful.

> and AVX512 is an excellent instruction set

I do like AVX512 in principle, but in practice the runtime cost of using it is so high that I've offloaded anything highly parallel to other hardware (i.e. GPGPU) -- there's always work enough to keep the CPU busy anyway.

Have you found AVX512 great in practice? I'd love to hear about it!
That's why last year three men with knives on London Bridge were able to stab 5 civilians to death and injure dozens of others including stabbing 4 police officers, stopping only when other armed officers shot and killed them. [1]

This was only a few months after the similar attack on Westminster Bridge in which a man stabbed an police officer to death, and then was shot and killed by a nearby armed officer. [2]

Before Google+ came out Facebook had "lists" where you could group friends to "lists" and make posts only visible to certain "lists". I used the feature heavily but come ~2013 I stopped using Facebook completely so I don't know if they have the same feature.

It was nice for keeping my World of Warcraft friends separate from "Family" and "College" and "Highschool" etc. As there were things I'd maybe want 1 group to see, but things I'd rather others didn't.

After ~4 years I just started unfriending people as it was easier then bothering to curate posts for specifics lists, and soon after I just deleted the account as I could SMS-text the people I wanted to chat with easier then bothering with facebook.

Tesla "open sourced" a lot of their patents, which was a good thing. But why would they then patent things like side panel designs that could save lives?

It kind of highlights the idea that the original release of patents on the electric tech was self serving only. In hopes that it would bring electric to more mainstream and help create a charger network faster.
Right. I understand that blockchains have at least hypothetical use cases. My point was that they are so widely over-used (or worse, invoked by not actually used) that any blockchain advocate can't just dismiss the point mentioned. They have to be clear that they are actually talking about a specific use case where blockchains do matter.

I'll note that the three cases you mention aren't obvious candidates for blockchains either. Financial assets mostly work via central registries. Legal documents are generally kept by all parties, as each entity has its own perspective. Source code is usually centralized but sometimes perspective-driven. Blockchains are a possible way to solve some of those problems. But in the 10 years they've been out there, cryptocurrencies aside, I have yet to see a use that couldn't be done more effectively with a better-tested, better-understood technology.
They're all RISC architectures (ARM maybe isn't any longer given all the extensions), so the treatment will be largely the same. RISC-V is the newest of those instruction set architectures and is the most cleanly designed, so the book probably won't need to explain legacy cruft that MIPS and ARM include but that aren't essential to understanding how computers work.

Unless you have a reason to work with MIPS or ARM I would go with the RISC-V edition.

I have a friend who's a security engineer at a bank. I was surprised when he took the job - he'd always been pretty to the left politically.

But he takes pride in making sure the grandmas of the world don't get their accounts drained. He realizes he's not saving the world, but he's not swapping around debt vouchers until the economy crashes.

It's counter intuitive, but in his mind he's more moral than someone working at Google or Facebook.
