I get that you're scared about multi ton vehicles running without a human. But self driving can and actually be safer than human drivers sometimes. Yes, self driving vehicles can cause devistating accidents in situations where a human driver would have handled the situation much better. Sometimes they can just bug out, which seems particularly dangerous, but we also need to consider who they're replacing: Humans. Humans get tired, Humans text & drive, Humans blink, Humans Yawn, Humans do drugs, Humans sometimes just don't pay attention. Because machines don't have any of these factors, they can statistically be much safer, of course assuming the technology is ripe enough and thoroughly tested before it's used.

Thanks, I didn't know about that.

They ~~all~~ mostly run android with GMS. They do apply their own skin, and sometimes Manufactures try to market it as a seperate OS. For example "NothingOS" in the Nothing phones, which is just stock android with a fancy skin applied.

The qr code is just the link i posted. I took a quick look and it doesnt seem like it. As far as i can tell its just some low level hardware info. Its also pretty short. Not 100% sure though.

Your link is slightly broken. (The dot should be part of the URL, not plaintext)

Turning off GPS and turning on airplane mode should do the exact same, right? If you don't trust your OS you could use something like GrapheneOS or LineageOS, that's what I do. I don't feel the need to physically stop my phone from collecting data if it's Operating System is free software and built to respect my privacy. That way my smartphone actually does what I want, instead of working against my interests. Constantly fighting against the device you carry all day sounds exhausting.

Why is GitHub better than GitLab? Did I miss something big or are you refering to smaller differences in function? I thought GitLab offered basically the same core functionality as GitHub.

Thank you very much for your help so far, I will test the different methods and settings suggested in this thread over the next few weeks. I probably won't find the time or motivation to methodically figure out the specific issue. That means that if at some point my system seems stable again, I will just leave everything as is and try to just be happy about it.

But when my life gets less busy I'll maybe have time to see this completely through.

Anyways thanks to everyone, especially you, for taking the time to help me. I will update this post should I ever figure it out.

Well I've not fixed anything yet😅. It was sadly just a hypothetical. Sorry if that wasn't clear from the comment.

Yes, I went to fast because I have been sitting on this for months now. Normally I would only change one thing at a time, but with this situation it can take everywhere from 5 minutes to multiple days to test one single thing. If it doesn't crash for 48 hours, it might be because I fixed the issues, or it might just be a coincidence and it will crash in hour 49 ¯_(ツ)_/¯.

But your right, I will attempt it the right way when I find the time, even though it will probably take weeks 😮‍💨.

And in comparison to Windows, the qr code actually contains useful information!

Thanks, please check my updated post. I have disabled the relevant setting in my BIOS, installed cpupower and increased the idle state to the maximum value of 2. I have also tried states 0 & 1. Do I need to run the machine for longer or should it have crashed right away according to your hypothesis? I also can't tell you if the BIOS setting already fixed my issue since I still can't reproduce it.

About your last paragraph, the system has had these issues mostly while idle, but that's probably because my system is running idle most of time anyways. I have also had the issue during low to medium loads, like transcoding audio via jellyfin. But I haven't methodically run a process on all cpus. How would I go about running a load that uses all cores? I don't particularly want to run a stress test for hours (because loud), but at this time I'm really open to trying anything.

I have also enabled an option in my BIOS that generates a dummy load some time ago, because some forum post had suggested a PSU issue is at fault for unexplained reboots. I have a 500W PSU that is way overkill for my components, and some users suggested that some PSU's can turn of when the load is to low. The option did not fix my problem. I have since connected a weaker 220W PSU, which also didn't help.

 

I have recently built a new PC, to be used as a server. For months now, I have been getting unexplained crashes, sometimes after a few minutes, sometimes after a few days, where the PC just reboots without any trace in the logs. Just normal occasional status logs, and then, a few seconds later, the log of a normal boot process.

This is slowly driving me crazy because I just can't make out the issue. I have tried multiple different Linux installs, swapped out the ssd and PSU and ran a ram test but this behaviour stills persists.

Today something was different. Instead of rebooting, it showed me this blue screen, this time finally with a log. But I still can't seem to make out the issues. Some quick internet searches show some very vague answers; everything from software to hardware, and psu to CPU.

Can any Linux wizard help me fix my problem? Link to the log

Update: I have now faced an even weirder issue. I booted up, installed cpupower like a comment suggested, installed man to look up its documentation and then the screen froze, and I was forced to reboot the PC by pressing the power button for 3s. Then when I booted back up, my bash history was reset to a state a from a few days back (~.bash_history mod time from 2 days ago) even though I rebooted several times since then, and have not had any persistency errors like this. man was also not installed anymore. Even weirder is that cpupower was still installed. So it seems like some data was saved, while other files were discarded. I will now use a second ssd and try to replicate this. I now suspect some kind of Storage issue, even though the two ssd drives in question have never caused issues in my laptop. This seems scary, I have never witnessed a so weirdly corrupted Linux install, ever.
