Wow excellent, congrats! If you would, do post a thread or message in the "Show off your build" thread with info such as the specs, cost, where you got it from, and your initial feedback/experience with it along with some pics? Would highly appreciate it! I'm particularly interested in how...

GCP I'm sure has roles that do not require coding skills... max "Dev Ops" roles and I'm sure her existing role in "cloud solutions" would be relevant? I know it's hard to target these big cloud orgs but worth a shot IMHO unless it's really not her area of interest as you mention.

Aren't you the guy who got into Google some time back? Your friend could try to aim high and prepare for interviewing at Google Cloud division in Pune (not sure where else it may be located) and also other big cloud companies like AWS and Azure divisions. If she can prepare well and you maybe...

Where are you getting the MSI and for what price? I'm looking at the MSI 321UP which is only 165 hz and more than sufficient for my non gaming usage...

Yeah, I'm looking to upgrade to either a 9950X build or (if available within reasonable timeframe) a potential "9970X" (if they number it that) build, preferably the latter :) I guess it comes down the the cost factor, perf-per-dollar, so to speak, if someone is thinking about buying my...

Watch: While you consider buying my computer.

I noticed Debian repo CDN (fastly) is, well, quite aptly, very fast... I get full 1gbit (my internet plan) downloads when updating. For the openSUSE tumbleweed slowness issue, what I did was run a cron rsync script to pre-download everything tumbleweed at regular intervals to my miniPC with a...

Have you tried OpenSUSE Tumbleweed? Pretty solid and polished. I like it a lot even though I run ubuntu-lts-based distros as daily drivers. You can download one of the ISOs from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/

See Threadripper for Sale! for the latest details and info. Pasting the current info here too: Looking to sell my computer: AMD Ryzen ThreadRipper 3970X CPU (32 Core / 64 Threads). ASUS Prime sTRX40 Pro S Motherboard. GSkill Ripjaws V 3600 MHz 32 GB DDR4 (x4 total 128 GB) RAM. Thermalright...

I have a mains "protector" device (Accurex brand DX 9050) and use power strips , and a whole-home Luminous sine wave inverter in UPS mode, thats all. No stabilisers or individual dedicated UPSes. So technically it supposed to protect for sudden over/under voltage spikes/dips but not from...

KDE is working on HDR (I think some initial stuff is ready) in the latest 6.x releases... I use KDE neon distro instead of Kubuntu, its like stable base (ubuntu 22.04, soon moving to 24.04) with latest "rolling" KDE stable updates. See neon.kde.org to try it Live session or in a VM maybe.

I think I take back my +1 for KDE Dolphin... There must be a valid reason it is not available in Windows Store, likely not totally safe with your data lol. I'm sure if it's "production ready" it will show up in the Windows App Store like some of the other KDE apps.

Oh yes, Ubuntu LTS is what I use (I mean distros that are based on that)... and cool thing is the latest 6.8 series kernels with 24.04 LTS (and I think also now with 22.04 series) has lots of improvements, including, to my pleasant surprise, better ACPI power management for Zen 2... My CPU used...

+1 for KDE Dolphin (if it runs well on Windows) though it's not on the Windows App Store like some other kool KDE apps (Filelight, Okular etc)... I was also thinking of one of the "xxxx commander" named file managers, can't remember the exact name. . And I pasted the OP question into...

If anyone wants the benefits of rolling release (latest software, hardware support etc) without the headaches Arch used to give me then try openSUSE Tumbleweed ... You can run GNOME or KDE on it, very polished, easy to setup and run as daily driver. Not without its (breakage) risks though quite...

This is a great website (Ubuntu Handbook) see https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2024/08/upgrade-to-ubuntu-2404-1/ But I always prefer fresh install every time because I run LTS based distros so it's only every couple of years effort for a couple of hours. Also, I don't trust upgrade process...
