  • On the CPU side, the only Intel procs I’ve used are old enterprise gear for my homelab. No issues there.

    On the GPU side, I’ve exclusively used Nvidia for… Actually I don’t remember the last time I used a non-nvidia GPU. The most common problem I’ve run into is updating my drivers and forgetting to reboot. the only other problem I’ve had is years back, I bought the latest gen card, and Nvidia hadn’t updated their official Linux drivers yet.

    With your hardware, I’d expect things to work fine.




  • The large flat one looks like radar to me. I hadn’t heard of radar being used with PTZ cameras. But you can also use it standalone to measure traffic flow.

    If it isn’t radar, it’s something with a large, flat antenna (probably a phased array). The other two options I can think of are a long-range RFID scanner or a point-to-point network connection.













  • I’ve been following this situation. This article leaves out a ton of relevant info. Here’s some more details in no particular order:

    • The assignment had nothing to do with transgenderism. It was to read and discuss an academic paper about socially enforced gender norms (e.g., bullying the tomboy for not wearing makeup).
    • The instructor is a grad student.
    • The same day the student filed the complaint, a second grader (a professor I think) re-graded the paper and confirmed the original grade.

    Someone I follow on another platform pointed out that this looks suspiciously like a setup to stoke outrage and media attention.

    • Samantha Fulnecky is a junior and this is a freshman course.
    • This section of the course is the only section taught by a transwoman.
    • The assignment is not a meaningful part of the grade. Think of it as a weekly assignment, not a major paper or exam.
    • Samantha’s mother is a lawyer and conservative activist known for representing two Jan 6ers and for fighting COVID-related mandates. She has been in national news before.
    • Samantha & mother contacted media outlets the same day Samantha filed the complaint (the regrade happened that same day too).

    Edit: sorry, didn’t mean to reply to the previous comment. This was meant to be a top-level comment. I’ve reposted
