(ok i see, you're using the term CPU colloquially to refer to the processor. i know you obviously know the difference & that's what you meant - i just mention the distinction for others who may not be aware.)

ultimately op may not require exact monitoring, since they compared it to standard system monitors etc, which are ofc approximate as well. so the tools as listed by Eager Eagle in this comment may be sufficient for the general use described by op?

eg. these, screenshots looks pretty close to what i imagined op meant

now onto your very cool idea of substantially improving the temporal resolution of measuring memory bandwidth...you've got me very interested with your idea :)

my inital sense is counting completed L3/4 cache misses sourced from DRAM and similar events might be alot easier - though as you point out that will inevitably accumulate event counts within a given time interval rather than an individual event.

i understand the role of parity bits in ECC memory, but i didn't quite understand how & which ECC fields you would access, and how/where you would store those results with improved temporal resolution compared to event counts?

would love to hear what your setup would look like? :) which ECC-specific masks would you monitor? where/how would you store/process such high resolution results without impacting the measurement itself?

CPU and Memory use clock speed regulated by voltage to pass data back and forth with no gates between

could you please explain what you mean by no gates?

Reading up on RDP

Microsoft requires RDP implementers to obtain a patent license

there it is. good info to dig up jrgd, well done! shame we had to scroll so far in the thread to find these actual proper, highly relevant details.

well, everyone has to pick their battles, and perhaps RHEL just couldn't fight this one out.

but imo i'd much rather see VNC get some upgrades under RHEL than continue the ever increasing microsoft-ization of linux

just want to add, it's not the zoomer's fault. they were intentionally raised in ignorance because its apparently profitable

fuck the corporations who've deliberately turned our living computers into soulless commercial brainwashing surveillance machines

and they're using our retirement money to do it

Glad to see everyone agrees this is

  1. funny cos they're crying over stealing what they stole

  2. acknowledges this means the weights are actually open sourced (which is how it fuckin should be)

also discussion i've seen elsewhere:

  1. when considering the energy footprint of chatgpt, also consider the energy footprint of running the internet for 30 years to accumulate all that data they stole. therefore the most ecological option is to extract the weights and then opensource it.

just want to add

  1. if the accusations aren't true (still a possibility), oai is probably deliberately buying time/stock recovery by keeping this discussion in the news rather than everyone discussing how much they suck

  2. if large entities are going to capture and then open source each others proprietary weights, that may actually be one of the best outcomes for global humanity amidst this "AI" craze

fuck me lemmy is turning into an absolute reddit-esque cesspool shithole.

i do not understand why people are in here simping for cloudflare (presumably unpaid) do they have money in cloudflare? clearly they don't have a fucking clue whats really going on in the world, but what makes them think they need to actively enforce (ie. downvote people) for pointing out issues with cloudflare??

this is beyond weird.

wow the level of cope in this thread (thankfully not that many tho) arguing over stats - which are probably made up anyway.

some people can't handle that most humans just wanna be friends regardless of gov politics bs
