It is a hardware failure. Screens are complex and sensitive parts that are exposed to a lot of (ab)use. What is cryptic about that?

I agree, it looks nice in my opinion. It doesn’t look like the house itself is crooked. It’s just asymmetrical furniture, which I find fun to look at!

we think you’d be best with a bigger team with a better support network

Sounds like they think you’re not independent enough for the position. If it is a small team, they might need someone who can immediately start being productive, while they think you will need more coaching to get up to speed.

No need to drag any disabilities into this.

Well, if

1. Wireshark identifies it as a single stream
2. Wireshark sees gibberish “TCP” and not an SSH connection
3. The gibberish comes after the SSH stuff that you could see (the stuff in there is going to be the handshake, my bad, that is a bit of a technical term)

Then we can be quite confident that your connection is indeed encrypted!

And of course, you’re welcome!

Just get uBlock Origin instead. Years ago I made the switch and never looked back!

If the timestamps line up, maybe Wireshark just doesn’t manage to understand the entire exchange. What could happen is that Wireshark sees the SSH handshake, and after that it might become just encrypted gibberish due to the encryption. In that case the SSH traffic could just show up as “some kind of TCP”.

Do you see an SSH handshake, followed by random crap on the same ports?

(I’m not a Wireshark expert, just an IT guy trying to help!)

TCP is on a lower level than SSH, usually SSH uses TCP as its underlying transport layer. TCP as such is not encrypted, but it can of course be used to transport encrypted data.

Are those packages not part of the same SSH connection according to Wireshark?

Any liquid is drinkable, some even more than once!

To be fair, speed is relative. Imagine a plane flies at 500 km/h and is pursued by another plane at the same speed. If the first plane fires a rocket backwards that accelerates for a total of 200 km/h, then for an observer on the ground the rocket will still do 300 km/h, in the same direction as the planes. However, the guys in the second plane will see a rocket approaching them at 200 km/h.

Wind resistance, aerodynamics, etc. will have an impact, but it can work.

Am I missing something? I thought the outage was caused by CrowdStrike and had nothing to do with Microsoft or Windows?

That’s really useful to know. Thank you for sharing!

They say there are 16 screens inside, each with a 16k resolution. Such a screen would have 16x as many pixels as a 4k screen. The GPUs power those as well.

For the number of GPUs it appears to make sense. 150 GPUs for the equivalent of about 256 4k screens means each GPU handles ±2 4k screens. That doesn’t sound like a lot, but it could make sense.

The power draw of 28 MW still seems ridiculous to me though. They claim about 45 kW for the GPUs, which leaves 27955 kW for everything else. Even if we assume the screens are stupid and use 1 kw per 4k segment, that only accounts for 256 kW, leaving 27699 kW. Where the fuck does all that energy go?! Am I missing something?

He also called them mûmakil in elvish. In my mind, when the Hobbits call them oliphaunts it is because a long time ago someone talked about elephants, and over the years the correct pronunciation was lost.

How sure are we that u/colmear isn’t just an alt of OP? It could be just OP claiming they don’t live in the US!
