I've encountered this before, on a Mac Pro 5,1. Same thing used to happen to my old Linux machine and I've seen it happen to Win2k waaaaaay back in the day. I recall the whole up-too-long-cant-network thing being quite common at one point. This article feels like a nothing burger.

    Lol. Glad to see others using the term "nothing burger".

    As I explained elsewhere it's just that. Hype for a new AI model that can't understand the big picture nor the final details and is finding non-existent bugs.

    It's a great phrase for things like this lol

    Yeah I haven't seen my Mac Pro 6,1 do this in the 2y it's been living in my rack running boinc jobs. Nor my M1 mini at work that goes untouched for months at a time bc I don't need to go there.
