    That’s not what happened. It wasn’t any more or less toxic than any other place on the internet, the lead admin just got burnt out. He asked the community for volunteers to moderate the instance and apparently nobody showed up.

    So he’s shutting down the instance next month. It wasn’t dysfunctional or toxic, he just sacrificed a lot and AFAIK never even broke even with server costs.

    The key reason is that we just don’t have enough people on the admin team to keep the place running. Most of the admin team has stepped down, mostly due to burnout, and finding replacements hasn’t worked out.








  • Other people answered how it’s measured, but if you’re just shopping for a CPU I’d recommend skipping straight to benchmarks. There’s a lot of technical stuff involved but if you look at Geekbench/Passmark scores you can easily compare which ones are more powerful.

    If you’re shopping for a laptop with a specific CPU I’d also look into how much power it uses (in Watts).
