Or toilet paper/other hygiene products. The first 5 years of my 20s evaporated due to an abusive relationship dumping me into homelessness. I stole more hygiene products than I’d like to admit…
It works in the short term, and that is all that matters. He geared up for an IPO, and the calculations end at that point, everything else is someone else's problem.
I really wish I could use those roads for transport using a bicycle. I just don’t feel like being passed by a truck moving at 80km/h just a few centimeters away in a curve with bad visibility, potentially even with fog in the morning.
You can make multiple extra lanes for cars, but not a single lane for bicycles?
It's a meme. This image shows a lemmy user asking a highly technical question and a caption saying that that is the least technical user, implying that all other lemmy users are even more technical.
10G Base LR: It's a type of fiber standard that runs a 10 gigabits. and looks like this
QSFP 40G: It's a DIFFERENT type of fiber standard that runs at 40 gigs and looks like this
I only know the basics of fiber networking but I know that different standards are needed because light refracts differently depending on cable thickness and composition, so standards/variations of the same standard have different maximum length, bandwidth, collision detection, etc.
For example, the type of fiber that you use to connect two offices that are 10 miles apart is going to be very different than the fiber you use to connect your SAN storage to your baremetal ESXI servers.
In essence, OP is asking if he can connect his phone line to the port on the back of the computer, and the answer is "Yes, but it's not that simple, and you probably don't want to do that anyways"
The image shows a post from a platform or forum, likely named “Lemmy,” where a user with the handle “ky56” is asking a technical question related to networking.
Here’s a breakdown of the technical terms:
10GBase-LR: This refers to a specific standard of Ethernet transceiver module that can support data rates of up to 10 Gbps (Gigabits per second) and works over single-mode fiber. The “LR” in the name stands for “Long Range,” indicating that this module is designed for longer distance transmissions, typically up to 10 kilometers.
QSFP-40G-LR4: “QSFP” stands for Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable. It’s a compact, hot-pluggable transceiver used for data communications applications. The “40G” indicates its data rate, which is 40 Gbps. The “LR4” suggests it’s designed for long-range transmissions, typically up to 10 kilometers, and it uses a 4-lane architecture.
CWDM: Stands for Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing. It’s a technology that multiplexes multiple optical signals on a single fiber by using different wavelengths (i.e., colors) of laser light. This technique enables multiple channels to be transmitted over a single fiber, increasing the overall capacity of the communication link.
The user’s question is about whether they can connect a 10GBase-LR module to a QSFP-40G-LR4 module using CWDM technology. Essentially, they’re asking if it’s possible to interconnect these two types of transceivers, which operate at different data rates, using a technology that allows multiple wavelengths on a single fiber.
Yeah but it didn’t answer the question of “can you connect them?”.
Others in this thread have said yes but chat gpt ignored the question and replied with a description of the question. It’s easy for a model like this to determine what a model name means(it seems complicated to humans but there is a logic to their naming).
That’s because I asked it to explain the technical aspect of the question, not answer it.
Here’s the answer it gave me when I asked it to answer the question:
Yes, I can provide an answer to the technical question in the photo.
The question is: “Can I attach a 10GBase-LR to QSFP-40G-LR4 (CWDM)?”
Answer: In general, you can’t directly connect a 10GBase-LR transceiver to a QSFP-40G-LR4 transceiver because they operate at different data rates (10 Gbps vs. 40 Gbps). Additionally, the QSFP-40G-LR4 typically uses four separate lanes of 10 Gbps each, which is why it has the “4” in its name.
However, there are solutions to bridge these differences:
Breakout Cables: You can use a 40G QSFP+ to 4x 10G SFP+ breakout cable. This cable will split the 40G signal from the QSFP-40G-LR4 into four separate 10G channels. You can then connect one of the 10G channels to your 10GBase-LR module. This will only utilize 10 Gbps of the 40 Gbps available from the QSFP+ port, leaving the other three channels unused.
Transponder or Media Converter: These devices can convert signals between different data rates. A transponder could take in the 10G signal from the 10GBase-LR and output it as one lane of a 40G signal compatible with the QSFP-40G-LR4. However, similar to the breakout cable, this will only utilize a fraction of the 40G capability.
Switch/Router Configuration: Some high-end networking equipment allows you to configure the data rate of specific ports. If both transceivers are plugged into such a device, you could potentially configure the QSFP-40G-LR4 port to operate at 10G, but this would be vendor and model specific.
Regarding the CWDM component, if both transceivers support CWDM and are operating on compatible wavelengths, they should be able to communicate over a CWDM system. However, CWDM is typically used to combine multiple signals onto a single fiber, so if you’re just trying to connect these two transceivers, the CWDM component may not be necessary unless it’s part of a larger network design.
Always consult with the documentation of your networking equipment and, if possible, conduct tests in a lab environment before making any changes to a live network.
You probably want to simplify your example to “the servers you’d connect in the same room” rather than going into “SAN” and “ESXI” or else they only people who will understand are going to be all the /r/homelab refugees in c/selfhosted, and they already all taken what this was about anyway lol
Any country has its specialties and these German Meme things are certainly good, but in general German cuisine is not very sophisticated. In Europe by far it is Spanish and in general Mediterranean cuisine. I am from Spain and here the food is worldclass, apart there are also not only the best wines, but also the beer can compete with the German one. The worst cuisine is in Nordic countries and England, this is already off the scale, luckily there are good Chinese and Indian restaurants there that guarantee survival outside of fish and chips.
A huge chunk of traditional Nordic food is either dirt-poor peasant food, or food that keeps for months on end so the brutal winter doesn’t kill you regardless of whether you’re a dirt-poor peasant or a hoity-toity lord (and this is what lutefisk is: usually low-quality dried fish cured in lye to soften it.)
Unfortunately this also means that many recipes are more or less lost, or really only written down in eg. family recipe books. And at least here in Finland we’ve also stopped using a majority of the local herbs we historically used, in large part because they’re not seen as “fancy” (being herbs that dirt-poor peasants gathered from the woods) – not that we were ever that into spices, life being honestly pretty miserable for the majority of the population especially when serfdom was a thing. People had, well, other priorities
I try to stay away from buying nestle stuff, but it’s nearly impossible… they have their mitts in everything, even cat food. (Purina) They have over 2000 brands ffs. www.nestle.com/brands
