The hostility is that you're questioning my answer already without even bothering to do the most basic of research, it's frankly whiny and annoying. To answer you again though. No. It's not possible you're installing any of this hardware anywhere second hand. As I originally stated. Anything else is copeium.

Alright, sure buddy. You've got a 14.3Kw hookup (per 2U sever blade) and a glycol loop at your small business... These data centers operate at scales beyond the level of normal people or businesses. It'll end up ewaste or I'll eat my shoe, I've seen it time and time again with university super clusters and these are no different.

If you think you can do it bro, but I've been in the industry long enough to know where this shit goes and it ain't to second hand use. You're ignoring so many aspects beyond just the firmware, I mentioned the infrastructure as well. A single Blackwell 2u draws 14.3Kw you're not installing that in your fuckin' home and that's before we get to the mandated dedicated water lines or the fact you're probably not cracking advanced firmware locks like that. It's frankly a ridiculous proposition that reeks of a lack of knowledge on the subject.

Can it be considered a free fall if republicans haven't even broken lock step once? They're still up there swearing up and down it's not a fucking war while he literally refers to it as nothing but a war multiple times over again (with his administration and department of war).

Paper recycling unfortunately makes the problem worse than just sequestering the carbon in a landfill. :(

The American public will do anything to live a better life, except demand fair wages.

The hardware is generally extremely custom and licensed to high hell with specific locked firmware. It will be ewaste if the bubble crashes. You won't be running anything like this in your house and it's very unlikely the producers will take any steps to remove the locks on the hardware even if it were designed to be compatible with consumer grade utilities and infrastructure.

Do... Do good? Like.. With a missile?

That's literally how any update on a computer ever will work. Real downsides worth mentioning would be like "you'll be unbootable, you can't rollback, it'll update a bunch of other packages, it might delete user home". Having to select an old entry in your grub config at boot because the new kernel doesn't play nice with any number of custom peripherals or packages on your system is not what I would consider a serious downside and you'd have to do it if Kubuntu decided to roll a kernel update anyway. Do you uh, use linux?

Have you tried moving to a newer kernel? It should be working with Nvidia latest and KDE latest (Mine is solid on CachyOS) so it could be a kernel bug for you. No real downside to installing a newer one; but depending on your setup there could be a few regressions that might force you back to stable.

The technology to disguise a robot as an insect currently exists. Do you give thought and inspection to every fly that passes by?
