Xaturday Korning Creakfast Dereal

I don’t think this is good advice tbh. I tried this myself, after 5 weeks I felt no mental changes (good or bad) and DID get seemingly irreversible boob growth.

Where are these negative prices? I’m in Switzerland and my electricity price just keeps going up.

KDE user here, I still use X11 to play old Minecraft versions. LWJGL2 uses xrandr to read (and sometimes modify? wtf) display configurations on Linux, and the last few times I’ve tried it on Wayland it kept screwing the whole desktop up.

In the future, you can generally solve these sorts of build errors by just installing the development package for whatever library is missing. On Debian-based systems, that would be something along the lines of sudo apt install libecm<tab><tab> see what appears, choose one which looks reasonable with -dev suffix

It takes like half a second on my Fairphone 3, and the CPU in this thing is absolute dogshit. I also doubt that the power consumption is particularly significant compared to the overhead of parsing, executing and JIT-compiling the 14MiB of JavaScript frameworks on the actual website.

Wait really? I use (((triple parentheses))) quite often to indicate sarcastic emphasis on a word. Damn racists ruining my punctuation >:(

Nouveau is dead, it’s been replaced with Zink on NVK.

In my experience, nouveau is painfully slow and crashes constantly to the point of being virtually unusable for anything. The developers agree, as in the last couple months nouveau has been phased out of Mesa entirely. More recent Mesa versions now implement OpenGL on Nvidia using Zink on NVK, and the result is quite a bit faster and FAR more stable.

If your distribution currently still ships a Mesa version which uses nouveau, I would personally recommend you just stick with the Intel graphics for now.

Based on that plus the various other mistakes, my guess is that OP’s native language isn’t English, but probably one of the many languages which uses masculine pronouns as gender-neutral, and they’re just doing a literal translation from their native language.

And linux has io_uring which can handle millions of syscalls from a single thread without breaking a sweat. In my experience, I/O on Windows is just really slow, every file operation takes 10s to 100s of times longer than on any Unix-like kernel (1000s if windows defender is enabled)

Aside from checking the kernel log (sudo dmesg) and system log (sudo journalctl -xe) for any interesting messages, I might suggest simply watching for any processes which are abnormally high while the system is running slow. My initial approach would be to use htop (disable “Hide Kernel Threads” and enable “Detailed CPU Time”), and seeing which processes, if any, are eating up your CPU time. The colored core utilization bars at the top show how much CPU time is being spent on what: gray for disk wait, red for kernel, green for regular user process, etc. That information will be a good starting point.

Sadly, Visa and MasterCard are well-established as the ones who get to decide what is and isn’t acceptable online.

Again, that would be TIFF. TIFF images can be encoded either with each line compressed separately or with rectangular tiles compressed separately, and separately compressed blocks can be read and decompressed in parallel. I have some >100GiB TIFFs containing elevation maps for entire countries, and my very old laptop can happily zoom and pan around in them with virtually no delay.

There is a reason why TIFF is one of the most popular formats for raster geographic datasets :)

I remember touring one of the Mercedes factories in Germany many years ago and it was the coolest fucking thing watching an army of robot arms putting cars together. Of course they’ve since stopped giving tours (and I think closed the factory altogether?), probably because manufacturing in China is cheaper. >:(
