The first big problem: PID 1

On unix systems, PID 1 is special. Orphaned processes (including a special case: daemons which orphan themselves) get reparented to PID 1. There are also some special signal semantics with respect to PID 1, and perhaps most importantly, if PID 1 crashes or exits, the whole system goes down (kernel panic).

Among the reasons systemd wants/needs to run as PID 1 is getting parenthood of badly-behaved daemons that orphan themselves, preventing their immediate parent from knowing their PID to signal or wait on them.

Unfortunately, it also gets the other properties, including bringing down the whole system when it crashes. This matters because systemd is complex. A lot more complex than traditional init systems. When I say complex, I don't mean in a lines-of-code sense. I mean in terms of the possible inputs and code paths that may be activated at runtime. While legacy init systems basically deal with no inputs except SIGCHLD from orphaned processes exiting and manual runlevel changes performed by the administrator, systemd deals with all sorts of inputs, including device insertion and removal, changes to mount points and watched points in the filesystem, and even a public DBus-based API. These in turn entail resource allocation, file parsing, message parsing, string handling, and so on. This brings us to:

2nd pic :
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DFgIf2rU0AA83aU.jpg

Analyzing the first pick :
> ryzen 7 box in the background
> Appears the threadripper box is ~4times as big as it
> ryzen 7 box is dimensioned for wraith spire cooler
> Threadripper in a box 4 times its size but no cooler? (unlikely)

Analyzing 2nd picture :
> Box appears to open by a midway seam.
> Threadripper is placed recessed in the z-plane (backwards) and centered in y-plane vertical axis.
> This means when you pull the top of the case it will have the threadripper proc sitting as a belt buckle between a equally portioned top/bottom..
> I'm seeing here something like the cooler resting in the bottom w/ the cooler tubes running up between the foam pieces acting as a hinge w/ the base-plate at the top

Thoughts anons? I need weaponized autism to confirm cooler in retail boxing

Test vulkan and post logs if it gives you any kind of problems.

For better playback quality paste this in your mpv.conf file:

# Specify high quality video rendering preset
profile=opengl-hq       
# Scaler used when upscaling chroma (color information)   
cscale=ewa_lanczos       
# Scaler used when upscaling video   
scale=ewa_lanczossharp     

# https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/wiki/Display-synchronization   
# Force video to lock on the display's refresh rate
video-sync=display-resample    
# Reduces stuttering
interpolation=yes
# Interpolation scaler
tscale=oversample            

Notes: Remove cscale and scale lines if your computer isn't powerful enough.
Interpolation can also reduce framerate drastically.

Mpv uses software decoding if hwdec isn't specified. You may want to enabled it using
hwdec=auto or hwdec=auto-copy.

A side note about scalers:
best quality > ... > worst quality
ewa_lanczossharp > ewa_lanczos > lanczos > spline36 (default) > bilinear

Getting freezes under Windows ?
Add

angle-flip=no

to your mpv.conf.

If MOUSE_BTN3 and MOUSE_BTN4 aren't working in your input.conf, try using AXIS_UP and AXIS_DOWN to control scrollwheel.

To get error logs, please add

log-file=log.txt

to your config file.
Then search the log for "dumb" anything or for [e].

The real question is what did he do for the last 12 years?

http://www.bit-tech.net/news/tech/cpus/intel-principal-francois-piednoel-quits-after-20-years/1/

>Intel principal engineer François Piednoël, best known for his work as the architect behind the dual-processor high-end desktop (HEDT) Skulltrail platform, has announced he has quit the company after 20 years.

>Following a military career spanning 26 years - about which he says 'don't ask, can't tell- François Piednoël was snapped up by Intel in December 1997 to act as its principal engineer. In that role, Piednoël fathered the company's first dual-processor high-end desktop (HEDT) platform, Skulltrail, launched the Extreme Edition brand, optimised performance on the Pentium 4, and aided engineering of the Katmai, Conroe, Penryn, Nehalem central processing unit (CPU) and Sandy Bridge to Skylake, Kaby Lake, Skylake-X and Atom system-on-chip (SoC) product families.
