     Check it out, explore, let me know of anything you think would make it better.

     Try it out on your Smart Phone, it’s all responsive and mobile friendly. Some of the webmail options work on some SmartPhones. If the default webmail doesn’t work well for you, try the RoundCube or RainLoop alternatives.  If neither of those work well, there is a ownCloud mail client that works very well on mobile devices.

Inuvik

Our newest and most powerful server, Inuvik, is now restored to service. It is an i9-10980xe CPU with 256GB of RAM clocked at 4.9Ghz. The big  challenge to getting this operational was finding a motherboard that could reliably supply the enormous power requirements of this chip. While rated at a TDP of 165 watts, this with only a single core not clocked at more than 4.8Ghz and the remaining cores at a baseline of 3Ghz. All cores clocked at 4.9Ghz with a heavy load such as prime95/mprime torture tests test , small fft, 36 processes (all 18 cores provide hyperthreading), it can draw 540 watts. With a CPU core voltage of 1.32 volts, this works out to 409 amps, a lot for a PCB trace to handle and in fact on the Asrock motherboard, it melted the solder at the CPU socket. Better boards handle this by having a number of planes dedicated to power and ground.

At this point, friendica, hubzilla, roundcube, yacy, and Manjaro shell server are all again operational. There are issues with Mastodon, an update left it broken and I’m still troubleshooting. Because of it’s refusal to run under a modern OS, I have Ubuntu 20.04 installed on a virtual machine that is then proxied to through the main machine via a private network. Something seems to have gone afoul with this but I’m still trying to nail it down.
