   A very good friend of mine (not on Mastodon) hooked me up with a new mobo+cpu+ram for my workstation. According to the benchmarks, it is "130%" "faster". According to the butt-dyno, it's about 333% faster. I am for sure hugely constrained by disk I/O (shocking, I know), even before the upgrade, but now it's just ridiculous. My Factorio megafactory used to choke a bit on the old Phenom, but it plays at a full 60 UPS on the new setup. Factorio is memory speed/cache latency constrained, by design, so I consider it a decent real world load test; it is afterall about all I use this thing for other than shooting off invoices or SSH'ing to real computers). Not taking a 1/6th speed hit just because my RAM is too slow is awfully nice, this DDR4 is heckin' faster -- 3x or so, as best I can tell by the numbers.

   So yeah. That was nice.

   What's up with "Official" brand accounts on masto being the exact opposite of official brand accounts? idk but it's hilarious sometimes, except the Arby's acct, that one was lame.
