@clive@benbradley that is not what the article reads?
They moved the content via internet, the truck crashes relates to the new machines they were installing in their datacenter. Or am I reading that wrong?
@clive@benbradley (to be more specific, aws has a service to move data in to aws (snowmobile), but I’m not sure they have anything to move data out, except by copying it out of storage via the internet)
I wish more household things came with those twist-to-release buttons used for emergency stop. I want to feel something meaningful when I turn the microwave on.
I wonder if AMD's choice to use PCIe lanes for IPC will end up biting them in the datacenter ML market in the long run.
Intel's per-CPU PCIe lane count isn't as high, but the dedicated UPI bus for IPC means they can linearly scale the lane count in MP servers, and they can scale up to 8S. AMD, on the other hand, can only scale to 2S, and ~40% of the PCIe lanes on both sockets end up being used for IPC, so you only get a few extra lanes when jumping from 1S to 2S.
Dealing with Dell firmware that wants an admin password to boot from an external device, except if you just let it synthesise the boot entry and then set BootOrder to that it'll happily boot from the external device
@mjg59@SwiftOnSecurity
wild guess: this is for disk encryption "offload" on high end perc controllers. (Where the key for Self Encrypting Drives is stored and handled by the perc)
I think that was the recommended approach to prevent boot from non internal devices.
I might have screamed a little on that call.
@DrTCombs even with a bright yellow vest I almost got a head collision because driver didn't seem like waiting to overtake a car double-parked on their lane this morning. So I don't have an answer to that question.
@mjg59 try sharing TPM tips on TikTok, that should shave off a couple years.
“🎶always cap off your PCRs. 🎶”
“🎵 here is the secret behind PCR0 and intel bootguard 🎤”
The concept of being a felon is so funny to me. It's like "hey, you did some crime when you were 19, so we're going to make it exponentially harder to not do crime in future by limiting basically all your options for survival".
If I had a nickel for every time I've been facing a firmware bug that involves sniffing TPM traffic, I would have two nickels. That's not a lot, but it's funny that it happened twice.
