I'm looking at the future and what might be good replacement that offers a blend of power-efficiency, flexibility, and storage cost.

Any modern CPU will improve energy efficiency. AMD AM4 platform and Intel N100 are very cheap. AMD SP3 platform is also very cheap and has a ton of PCIe lanes and memory expandability for gpus, NVMe, and running lots of VMs.

For storage cost, used hdds are currently $8/TB, generic NVMe is currently $45, and used enterprise SSDs are $50/TB, decide which you want to invest in depending on your needs. Used enterprise drives will be the fastest and most durable for databases and RAID.

SSD prices are expected to decrease faster than HDD prices, and will probably overtake HDDs for value in ~5 years.

About dGPUs, Intel A310 is the best transcoding Gpu out there. Used Nvidia datacenter gpus probably have the best vram/$ and pytorch compatibility for AI

In the past two years, I have had horrible issues where it decides that I'm not allowed to join the call because I have a Teams account logged into a different organization, that it won't let me log out of. An issue where Microsoft servers just time out if you have ipv6 enabled, etc.

Don't get me started on Skype for Business. It's still around.

IT folk got so annoyed about being asked about what happens if you got run over by a bus, they decided to go out and show everyone.

Seems to be working now, but it was telling me to login with a Google account and refusing to play.

"CrowdStrike is far from the only security firm to trigger Windows crashes with a driver update. Updates to Kaspersky and even Windows’ own built-in antivirus software Windows Defender have caused similar Blue Screen of Death crashes in years past."

"'People may now demand changes in this operating model,' says Jake Williams, vice president of research and development at the cybersecurity consultancy Hunter Strategy. 'For better or worse, CrowdStrike has just shown why pushing updates without IT intervention is unsustainable.'"

 

Seems like a really serious vulnerability, any container attack or malicious image could take over a container host if there's no hardening on the containers.
