⬛️ We are currently accelerating the incubation of GPU... Nodes into the infraX Network, with 12 H100’s currently available for operation. Despite the incubation of such immense GPU power, the infraX Platform is optimally designed to run on the least amount of computational power possible, meaning a lot of our available GPU nodes are currently sitting idle. Currently, we're utilising a single gigantic NVIDIA H100 server with 80GB of VRAM and over 220GB of RAM to run our Platform. To put that in perspective, it rivals the computational power of an adult human brain. This setup enables us to handle immense computational load and deliver high-quality AI content to our users, however we have much more in store. Our remaining, immense network of GPU units is currently being prepared for rental operations as we look to transform the corporate GPU lending sphere through our corporate GPU lending protocol. We already have many high tier Web3 Players ready for technical integration, with more approaching us daily. Through our V3 DApp we look to make these integrations publicly viewable with real time usage graphs integrated directly into our Platform, allowing for exceedingly unique viewing opportunities. $INFRAshow more

People who have commented on my daily stream crashes... that have been happening for 1.5 years Things I have tried with no fix: - New wifi / new Home - New BEEFY PC (100% new everything EXCEPT 5080gpu) - New cables (inside and outside of pc) - New streaming software - New monitors - Fresh windows install - Bios update - Drivers update/retroactive drivers - Clean OBS scenes to run bare minimum - OBS logs and windows activity checked (shows NOTHING) - Furmark stress test - Switched output from GPU to CPU (solves the nvec error) - Obviously theres more but those are the main ones COUNTLESS tech teams have reached out to help with no prevail. What we know: - Happens when streaming/chatting/gaming/NOT streaming with obs/slobs open - Can't play games on PC without major droped frames. - Can't output on GPU only CPU - Memory leak IS happening on 5080 series with OBS/slobs - Can't change scenes sometimes - Can't have any other programs running during stream - tiktok never crashes when I mutlistream. Only twitch I have been troubleshooting for 1.5 years and I'm almost about to quit.show more

The server disconnections are still ongoing, and we are... continuing to receive penalties because of them. There are complaints on the forums where a GM mentioned that nothing is wrong, despite the large number of reports and similar complaints also appearing on Reddit. It’s important to note that these reports are coming from all regions — Asia, Europe, and the Americas. While some players may not be affected, a large portion of the player base is clearly experiencing this issue. I truly enjoy streaming Overwatch and sharing new content with my community, but it’s very frustrating to be constantly disconnected due to server issues — especially now with the amazing collaboration with YOASOBI, where I’d love to showcase the skins and play the event. I kindly ask that you give proper attention to this serious issue. The videos provided are from livestreams on Monday and Tuesday.

Say hello to Boojum 👋: zkSync Era’s new high-performance... proof system for radical decentralization. Boojum is an upgrade that will transition zkSync Era to a STARK-powered proof system, providing world-class performance on consumer-grade hardware. 💡 Learn more: TL;DR 👇 Boojum is the name of our Rust-based cryptographic library, which we use to implement the upgraded version of the ZK circuits for zkSync Era and the ZK Stack. The name Boojum was inspired by Lewis Carroll's poem "The Hunting of the Snark," where the Boojum represents the most fearsome kind of Snark. We intentionally designed zkSync Era in a way that cryptographic upgrades can be made without a regenesis, meaning that the Boojum upgrade won’t cause any user disruptions. Why Boojum❓ From day one, zkSync’s mission is to advance personal freedom for all — making digital self-ownership universally accessible by building a blockchain network that is trustless, secure, permissionless, affordable, easy to use, resilient and limitlessly scalable. Boojum plays an important role in advancing this mission by delivering: 1. World-class performance zkSync Era’s current SNARK-based proof system is effective today, but it won’t scale to the volume that we envision for hyperchains. zkSync Era’s sequencer can already process over 100 TPS; Boojum orders of magnitude improvements to performance complements this well. 2. Reduced hardware requirements for decentralization Our long-term goal is to enable user-powered, decentralized proof generation. Boojum represents a breakthrough in this direction — with the prover running on consumer-grade GPUs requiring only 16 GB GPU RAM. Boojum’s Journey to Mainnet 🚴🏽‍♀️ Boojum is now live on Mainnet, generating and verifying ‘shadow proofs’ today with real production data so that we can carefully test the system ahead of fully migrating. Today, we’re also open-sourcing the repo; if you’d like to take a look, you can find it here 👇 This is the first of a series of posts on Boojum. We will provide updates on our progress, including more details on implementation, security, and performance. Watch here for more, anon ∎show more

Thanks to everyone who came out to support ‘March... for Fairness’. I know participating in these kind of events requires significant sacrifice of time, money, energy and many other things and I’m encouraged by many who sacrificed all that to raise voice against country of birth discrimination. Although we were small in numbers, I’m happy for all that we were able to accomplish and how we were able to raise awareness to many. Thanks everyone who contributed and helped organize, promote the event. Country caps on skill based visas are unfair because it restricts someone’s growth based on where they are born and it is a hindrance for employers to hire based on merit. It’s high time we end this discrimination. #SaveAmerica #RemoveCountryCapshow more

Due to overwhelming high demand, a number of orders... from our first batch have unfortunately been moved to the second batch, which is now 90% ordered! Our manufacturers are hard at work to keep up with strong demand and we estimate that the second batch will now be sent the latter part of June. As part of this second batch we will update you by email with Fedex tracking numbers so you can see in real time where the mining rig is in the system. We apologize to those affected by this production demand, but rest assured us and the manufacturers are working hard to clear the backlog. Thank you for your patience and support!show more

I think Covid broke everyone’s brains. The government got... caught in the biggest coverup/crime of all time, and now the most retarded people on Earth have been emboldened to claim EVERY SINGLE THING is a conspiracy theory. Just as bad as the MSM that we were supposed to replace. Every time you shitbirds make a bullshit conspiracy theory where there isn’t one, you discredit the ACTUAL conspiracies and crimes that are taking place, as well as the ACTUAL journalists who are reporting on the facts. Have some discernment and stop fucking up everything else for the rest of us.show more

Visa and Mastercard are moving deeper into stablecoin payments.... Banks are testing tokenized settlements. Fintech teams are building the next payment rails in real time. To some this feels like everyone else is already ahead. But the truth is the opposite. These signals show where global finance is heading. Multicurrency accounts, real time settlement, digital dollars as a default payment layer and seamless payments between crypto and fiat. Exactly the direction we have been building toward. In our recent update we highlighted that the 149 billion dollar neobank market is projected to grow to 5.5 trillion dollars by 2033. This transformation has only just begun and the strongest growth is still ahead. The Scallop App is in its final development phase and in closed beta testing with multicurrency fiat accounts, a full crypto wallet and instant crypto to fiat swap functions. Visa debit cards are on the way. We are not late. We are aligned with the market shift that is happening right now. What we are building is not a reaction. It is part of the foundation for the next era of digital banking. The timing is right. The ecosystem is forming. And Scallop is nearing the moment where it steps into the global finance arena.show more

A few years ago, I wanted to design a... front panel for a desktop PC with real time machine info. I designed a few prototypes using OLED panels that were available at the time. All 6 running at 60 fps from a single ESP32. Never followed through because 1) I didn't know how to write system software and it felt like a huge undertaking to fetch CPU-Z + Task Manager data without using some paid API 2) These OLEDs failed after 6 months of continuous on-time. Their brightness faded unevenly as they aged too.show more

"Lift lighter as you get older. Protect your joints."... The standard advice. The wrong advice. What heavy lifting actually does for an ageing body: - Builds tendon stiffness, which protects joints rather than wearing them - Maintains the high threshold motor units that are first to disappear with age - Stimulates bone density, the thing osteoporosis attacks - Develops the strength reserve that keeps you independent at 80 What high reps do for an ageing body: - Generate more total fatigue per session - Take longer to recover from (a problem that compounds with age) - Do nothing for tendon stiffness - Do nothing for fast twitch preservation - Make you tired without making you strong Recovery capacity declines with age. The worst thing you can do is pick the more fatiguing option and call it gentle. The actual protocol: - Heavy enough to challenge the muscle (4-6 reps, near failure) - Machines for most of the work (less spinal load, less balance demand, more stimulus to the muscle, less risk) - Skip the 1RM testing, skip the maxing out on barbell squats and deadlifts - That isn't where the magic was anyway You don't need to max out a barbell to lift heavy. You need to challenge the muscle with a load it respects. The leg press at 200kg does this. The hack squat does this. The chest-supported row does this. None of them are ego lifts. All of them are heavy. Lifting lighter to "protect" your joints is how you arrive at 75 unable to stand up from a chair. Lifting heavy on machines is how you arrive at 75 carrying your own shopping.show more
