Interviews do typically count, it just has to be citable. Videos are sufficient in that regard as well, not just articles or books. It would be different if Torvalds had edited his own wikipedia page, but an editor who updates the page and cites this video would not be in the wrong.
I mean, I feel like he outright confirms it in the video. It’s his distro of choice since it allows him to easily use his own compiled kernels in testing. Anything else is an inconvenience to his work.
These Zen-esque chips have come up before, though it sounds like this might be the first time they’ve been used in a marketed product. A couple other companies born out of the remnants of Centaur also seemed to have borrowed architectural notes from the early Zen CPUs, potentially as a result of their competitors like Hygon making that deal with AMD almost 10 years ago. It’s the first time one seems to be almost a boilerplate 1700x though.
How’s the overall health of the drives? You might want to get a quick SMART report.
Otherwise, this sounds like pretty normal drive activity. It could be the result of anything from indexing tools to casual background processes doing a read.
If it’s periodic in a way that’s consistent, then it’s almost definitely something in software. What docker services are you running? Do you have any auditing tools or security processes that might be actively logging activity?
It’s pretty unlikely you’ve contracted malware unless you’ve gone out of your way to expose the server to outside sources, so I think you can alay those concerns.
This is convenient. I’ve found that for most software though, especially legacy software, Heroic seems to work more often than not. Not having to configure some of the parameters myself that are required to get DX7 games to scale properly is appreciated.
Something KDE has done seems to have resolved the issues I used to have with DPI related scaling problems in Wayland. Once Plasma 6 hit, it’s been nothing but rapid improvements with Wayland as a focus and man does it feel nice.
That said, there’s virtually no downside to still using X unless you have explicit display features you need from Wayland like HDR or the per-display scaling. Xfce is stupid lightweight and still my default for anything where battery life is a benefit.
Since 2013, both Sony and Microsoft have been using custom variants of AMD’s consumer chips for CPU and GPU. These consoles are basically just laptop boards with some custom architecture, but at this stage most of the “Console” design is some software level features and a consistent baseline hardware spec to shoot for.
Sony still does seem to put mor effort into the hardware portion, but Xbox hardware has been little more than an SFF PC for a couple generations now
In my experience, they come in waves. They come either as data centres seek to replace or renew existing drives, but as a result, there aren’t as many lower capacity drives available. Lately, I’ve only seen 10+TB drives under a recertified banner, though you can find lower capacity drives that are “refurbished” instead. They will have the power-on hours to match though, as these are the refuse from those sorts of drive replacements.
You may find better luck with local used marketplaces if you only need cheap storage. Otherwise, they do seem less common if you don’t need large capacity drives.
Echoing the sentiment of the other commenter. A link would be great!
For customs? Yeah. But pretty much every master used in the RB or GH games have been ripped and are available for use there too
While I have no desire to defend Randy, Twitter is as Twitter does, and unless you spend time looking at his whole timeline, it sounds like he’s saying only stupid shit like this. He did actually acknowledge the issues, and stated that they’re working on them but also that for now the best way to play is with FSR/DLSS and frame gen.
I disagree with this deeply. He makes arguments about the imperceptibility of latency in frame gen, but that’s only true when the base framerate is high enough. DLSS is probably fine, but it’s also pretty fair for those who are using an 80 or 90 class card to complain about struggling at 1440p native, let alone 4k.
I’m not sure about the coins but I’ve been using it for a few months now and have been thoroughly enjoying the service. I think the coins are literally just their store wallet, and whether you keep some store credit there or not doesn’t matter. It’s equivalent to buying an iTunes gift card or something. You can just pay for whatever you want outright.
BL3 had some fantastic DLC though. Loved that.
Oh wow, I read that comment and I think my brain auto-corrected. I didn’t even notice that. That’s bizarre
This feels like the 1337speak equivalent of that spongebob meme lmao what the hell prompted you to respond like that.
No, dd doesn’t. It will just plainly write an image to a disk.
Am I misremembering or did Finland begin migrating a large number of their government systems to linux/FOSS software?
I don’t feel like this is a terribly recent attitude. It’s definitely one I’ve encountered repeatedly over a decade or more of dipping my toes in the pool. It’s not incorrect in a lot of circumstances, but it’s very difficult to find support when no one wants to help you improve. There’s always been a significant degree of ego in Linux user communities.
That’s exciting. It looks very clean, but until it has the tv remote support aspect I think it’ll wait
I think Deadlock is pretty up there. That said, it’s closer to Smite than it is a hero shooter. The community-driven character builds mean meta is pretty fluid and it has what I would describe as a very accessible MOBA-centered design. I don’t care for MOBAs much, but to say Valve isn’t innovating here would be disingenuous. I think my only problem with it is that it’s lacking something that makes the gameplay loop feel satisfying, but that may just be my bias against MOBAs talking.
It’s best practice to keep it separate, and that mostly just has to do with how the different file systems are handled.
