  • There are some 13th gen i9s at work that are usff (like a fat version of the tiny, they are p3 ultras) I can’t wait to get my hands on at home. dGPU, 2.5gbit + 1gbit on board, 64gb ram on these as purchased, etc, etc. Total monster in under 4l.

    I actually ended up with a cluster of those over a standard server for a client, way more power and lower price, and with HA to boot. Should have a few all to myself next year and I can’t wait to be ridiculous with them.


  • I’d say not just starter… My rack is full of tiny/mini/micros. Proxmox on all, data on the three NAS boxes, easy to replace a box if needed (for example, the optiplex 7040 that the board died on).

    Way quieter than a regular rack, lower power use, etc. If all goes well following an intended move, I should be able to safely power it off solar + batt only. Grand total wattage for all these boxes is less than my desktop (when I last checked at least, I was running about 300-350W. I did swap two that have dgpu’s now, so maybe a touch higher).

    No worries! Like I said, missing context from the deletion. For the record, they were conflating sex and gender and thinking they were the same thing.

    Which, obviously - no, definitely not the same thing, and both are important.

    Edited to add: and I completely understand how the lost context can make things more confusing, so seriously, no worries. I just wanted to be clear that was not what I was saying at all.

    We’re going well past “these two words mean the same thing!” that I was replying to, probably because they deleted their comment. So there is missing context.

    So trans women’s brains mirror those of cis women more closely than cis men, and vice versa for trans men.

    Because sex is not a binary either. I’m not a geneticist, doctor, etc, but this is fairly well established AFAIK, showing that ‘male’ and ‘female’ are more akin to general groupings, with a degree of overlap, than any actual dichotomy.

    As a sample reference:

    https://cen.acs.org/biological-chemistry/genomics/Scientists-reject-binary-view-human/102/i33

    To quote that example:

    Gender and sex are closely related yet distinct concepts—sex is considered a collection of biological characteristics, and gender is considered a collection of socially constructed roles, behaviors, expressions, and identities.

    Regarding the next bit from you:

    Also, treating sex as the only one that is relevant in medicine is reductive and inaccurate.

    It would be, but that isnt what I said, right from the quote you have of me:

    Sex and gender are still entirely distinct

    I never, at any point, said that only sex mattered in medicine. I said they were distinct.

    I doubt it was your intention to do so, but youre putting words in my mouth. Please don’t misrepresent me.
