Re: [PLUG] CPU info needed

2018-02-01 Thread Tomas Kuchta
If I would be building PC now, for similar usage patterns. I would
definitely go AMD Ryzen route + fanless low end MSI Nvidia GT 1030 cards
for about $70.

AMD just dropped their Ryzen CPU prices, so that should help

If you chose go the Intel CPU route, you will not need to buy graphics
card. What you save on graphics will most likely be spent on more expensive
motherboard.

Though Intel Linux support is second to none. Their graphics just works as
long as you do not buy their latest CPUs for the first half year. So, I'd
forget about Coffee Lake untill about May-ish.

Hope it helps,

Re: [PLUG] CPU info needed

2018-02-01 Thread Jason Barnett
I think only AMD's mobile CPUs have integrated graphics. I know my Ryzen 7
desktop does NOT have integrated graphics.  AMD has a new open source
driver AMDGPU that performs quite well under Linux.  I typically build my
own systems, but bought a prebuilt one because it had good parts and I
could not buy half the parts for the cost of a complete system.
The Ryzen processors are an excellent value, perform quite well and the
motherboards are reasonably priced. I can't say the same for Intel
CPUs/motherboards.
 The most expensive part of the build will likely be RAM. DDR4 is still a
bit pricey. I have 8GB and it has been sufficient for my use. I may add
more in a couple of years when the prices come down a bit.

While shopping, you can use this for comparison on prices:
This is what I bought for ~$550 after multiple discounts were applied ($780
before discounts), 6 months ago:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06W5J5XJJ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8=1

If you are planning on buying from Amazon, I recommend using the website
camelcamelcamel.com to see the price history for the items you are looking
for.  Here is the ccc for the system I bought, the price would swing from
$1170 to $780 in a matter of days.

Go to System76 and see what they provision in their Wild Dog and Leopard

[PLUG] CPU info needed

2018-02-01 Thread John Jason Jordan
First, let me make it clear that when it comes to CPUs, motherboards
and RAMI am hopelessly out of date. I was out of date four years ago
when I bought my laptop - I just selected component options based on the
price. I had no idea what any of the features of the CPU actually did.

So now I need to buy a CPU, motherboard and RAM for the new desktop
computer that I am going to build. From web sites I see that you can pay
up to a couple thousand dollars for a CPU, so for my first step in the
decision making process I drew a line at ~$300 for the CPU. Intel/AMD
are going to have to find someone else foolish enough to pay thousands
of dollars for a CPU.

My current desktop has an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 4600+ on an ASUS
M2NPV-VM motherboard with nVidia video. It is pathetically slow. My
laptop has an Intel Core i7-4800 MQ CPU @ 2.7GHz. It is fast enough,
but I'd like the new desktop to have something faster, if only to stave
off obsolescence.

I'm not averse to AMD, but don't their CPUs now come with video built
in, and haven't there been some driver issues with Linux?

And speaking of video, my current monitor will do 1920x1080 and the
ancient nVIDIA on the ASUS motherboard drives it fine. But some day 4K
will no longer be cutting edge, so planning ahead for it might be a
good idea.

Most of what the desktop does is stream internet radio all day long and
play over the air tv or movies at night. This is trivial work, but
sometimes I rip and encode a Blu-ray movie. On the faster laptop this
will take 2-4 hours. I tried it once on the current desktop and it took
a day and a half. I use Handbrake for this stuff and while it is
working it takes over 90% of the CPU. So I can justify a reasonably
fast processor.

I asked DuckDuckGo what kind of CPU to get and was presented with a
bewildering array of choices. There's i3, 15 and i7, there are cores
and threads, there are different GHz ratings, not to mention Kaby Lake,
Skylake and even Coffee Lake. (Coffee Lake? So if I get one of these I
can just stick a spigot in the case and throw away my coffee maker?)

The .com domain is still being hosted by linode and the host still has an

Daniel,

  Looking at github.com I discovered that the .com name is active, but it
used to be under the .org name. I used the URL in the monthly subscription
message to try to unsubscribe and it pointed to the .org TLD.


If that's where the email is originating, I believe you host your own mail
server, so you can add that "45.33.84.65 ledger123.org" to your mail
server's /etc/hosts file and try to send an email.


  There's been no mail on the list for several years and I stopped using
the application long ago. Rather than wasting time on this (yours, John's,
mine, etc.) I just added that domain name to /etc/postfix/badaddr and future
monthly reminders will be rejected.

  I did sent Armaghan a message at his gmail address but when he switched
TLDs he didn't notify me; perhaps not any other list subscriber, either.

Thanks,

Rich

You can't reach it because the domain is no longer set up. Maybe he just
quit paying for the hosting package at his provider.

[PLUG-ANNOUNCE] TONIGHT PLUG Meeting: Municipal Broadband in Portland

2018-02-01 Thread Michael Dexter


Portland Linux/Unix Group General Meeting Announcement

Who: Russell Senior
What: How to get a Municipal Broadband network in the City of Portland
Where: PSU, 1930 SW 4th Ave. Room FAB 86-01 (Lower Level)
When: Thursday, February 1st, 2018 at 7pm
Why: The pursuit of technology freedom
Stream: http://pdxlinux.org/live

How to get a Municipal Broadband network in the City of Portland

As many of you know, Russell has been kind of passionate about building 
an open-access Internet infrastructure in Portland for the last decade 
or more. No privately owned network would voluntarily allow open-access, 
and hasn't since the DSL days (when they were required to), and the 
Feds, namely the FCC has been steadfast in its refusal to enforce 
line-sharing (essentially the same thing as open access) on 
infrastructure built since 1996. Many of you may have heard about the 
FCC action in December rescinding the relatively new Title II regulation 
of ISPs and the Network Neutrality rules that went with it. With the 
consciousness raising this event has provided, there is a new window of 
opportunity from the groundswell of interest to create pressure on our 
political systems, namely City Council in Portland OR, failing that, an 
initiative petition to provide a local solution.


Russell will describe the problem and what a solution would look like, 
where the user ends up in the driver seat.

John,

  In this case I would not see a page telling me that domain is parked,
expired (not resting), or otherwise not able to display a page. Take a look
at .

You could look in the headers for the sender's IP and try pointing a browser 
there. You might be able to still use the mailman interface.

There may actually be a functioning web server.

To be more specific, a valid domain only provides a mapping between a name and 
and an IP address so that incoming traffic can determine how to get there. It 
has nothing to do with the web or mail server operation itself. 

There may very well still be a web server out there still listening for 
connections, there's just no longer any way to determine from the domain name 
what address that web server is actually listening on.

Because mail servers and web servers are two different things, and mail servers 
only depend on domains to route INCOMING mail, and have no dependency on an 
actual domain to SEND mail. You can claim to be anything you want in your 
outgoing email. But then it might be difficult for people to reply. :-P
