Not for nothing, it doesn’t sound so successful.

Working with people is a very core skill. You suggest that this came out of the blue - but I would bet that there were a lot of missed signals on the way. Escalating straight to verbal warnings and demotion in role or responsibility means you’re missing something very fundamental in what wasn’t working or was missed.

Should this link somewhere?

How could Intel gatekeep a standard that’s fairly open?

Delta flight attendants are non-union. They’ve also had industry leading pay for… forever. Delta pilots are union and also have industry leading pay.

It’s probably more about aggressive default bios speeds. Tweak your c states / bios overclocking / pcie power management / windows power management features. Idle power has gone down on most chips.

The Ryzen 3000 should truly idle closer to 20-30w.

If you have multiple GPUs in your home server you’re probably doing it wrong. But even then, at idle, with no displays connected, the draw will be surprisingly low.

Most systems with some ssd/NVMe, 2-4 DIMMs and maybe a drive or two should idle closer to 50w-60w.

Go tweak your power and fan settings. 100w at idle is way too much unless it’s 15 years old.

Fans, especially small ones are very sneaky energy hogs. Turn them waaay down.

Good, they weren’t doing a great job. Maybe Google is going to move this in house.

They cut supply in like September. They were all fighting for market share still, largely driven by Samsung, hence the low prices.

Server shipments were way down because everyone overbought in 2021/2022.

The NAND market has always been an antitrust shit show.

They also drastically cut supply.
