It was good! I really enjoyed it

Yes, I was doing the akchually thing. That’s kind of the joke. Hence the “teeeechnically” part.

GustavoM , to linuxmemes in Have you tried NixOS?
@GustavoM@lemmy.world avatar

I tried it once and gave up after realizing the necessary mental gymnastics to do simple things like installing something.

sylver_dragon , to asklemmy in What Do You Use Your Personal Website For?

I use my domain for two purposes:

  1. I host my own NextCloud instance, so that I don’t have to put my data on someone else’s computer.
  2. I have a blog (WordPress) with less that a dozen posts. Just random stuff that interested me and I got myself to actually write up.
Ashtear , to games in Where do you find new games nowadays? (Both singleplayer + multiplayer)

The bulk of my finds come from chat either on Lemmy communities (!jrpg, !patientgamers, or this one) or a couple Discord servers I’m on. Sometimes a game will catch my eye unexpectedly while I’m on OpenCritic looking up something else, too.

Otherwise it’s generally gaming news. I get that from also Lemmy/Discord, my RSS feed, or showcases. I always end up wishlisting half a dozen games during the summer showcases. My RSS feed right now is DualShockers, Eurogamer, Gematsu, PCGamer, Rock Paper Shotgun, Siliconera, and Denfaminicogamer (Japanese site). Always open to more suggestions for the feed; the problem is not everyone does RSS these days.

Which declarative systems exist besides nix? Don’t say ansible. It’s barely declarative.

GUIX for one.

GUIX is to NixOS what Gentoo or Manjaro are to Arch.

I’ll probably try it someday when I get bored enough of systemd.

zagaberoo ,

Gentoo or Manjaro are to Arch? What do you mean? Those two are very different from each other especially in their relationships to Arch.

demesisx OP ,
@demesisx@infosec.pub avatar

Duly noted. I DO NOT use Arch, btw. ;)

What I meant to try and say is that GUIX is like NixOS for Chad programmers.

ikidd ,
@ikidd@lemmy.world avatar

BlendOS is a declarative Arch.

nickwitha_k ,

GUIX is a good example.

Don’t say ansible. It’s barely declarative.

True, but it uses a common language in its Playbooks, which is a significant advantage. I’d like nix if I didn’t need to use nix the language. It’s great concept and the portability is awesome.

@Fizz@lemmy.nz avatar

The developer is expressing their opinion on their instance using their software. The beauty of federation and the software he has crrated is that you can build a community that you want.you never have to interact with or his instance.

This post is drama for the sake of drama.

xnx OP ,

He receives thousands of dollars in donations to make the software. I’d rathe people start supporting software developers made by non bigots

It’s a weird place to draw the line. You probably use all kinds of products with scumbag companies and owners yet you draw the line at a guy’s Foss project which has nothing to do with his views and the project barely makes min wage yet serves tens of thousands of people.

You don’t need to withdraw your support because you already do nothing to support. Again I think you are creating drama for the sake of drama. The guy is an open Communist and you are shocked that he’s transphobic.

Plenty of communists are not transphobic and most of the open communists I know are trans themselves.

Fizz ,
@Fizz@lemmy.nz avatar

I know I was pointing to that to show extreme views I didn’t intend to say Communists were transphobic or bad people.

I know a lot of communists are extremely progressive and tbh I thought he was to.

henfredemars , to linux in IDE/Text Editor Recommendations for Go Development on Linux

I enjoy VSCode mixed with some Sublime (employer-provided) and Vim in some tmux terminal windows, but I tend to be an oldschool developer who doesn’t really ask for much beyond good syntax highlighting. YMMV.

Samueru , to linux in ZRAM configuration and other tweaks for potatoes running Linux

You likely saw this already, but if you haven’t: www.reddit.com/r/…/new_zram_tuning_benchmarks/

wolf OP ,

Thanks a lot! You are right, I saw this already.

I can confirm the findings with my benchmarks: zstd has the best compression, lz4 is the fastest.

Samueru ,

Here is what I ended up using for my sysctl conf, iirc I got some of these from popos default config:


<span style="color:#323232;">vm.swappiness = 180
</span><span style="color:#323232;">vm.page-cluster = 0
</span><span style="color:#323232;">vm.watermark_boost_factor = 0
</span><span style="color:#323232;">vm.watermark_scale_factor = 125
</span><span style="color:#323232;">vm.dirty_bytes = 268435456
</span><span style="color:#323232;">vm.dirty_background_bytes = 134217728
</span><span style="color:#323232;">vm.max_map_count = 2147483642
</span><span style="color:#323232;">vm.dirtytime_expire_seconds = 1800
</span><span style="color:#323232;">vm.transparent_hugepages = madvise
</span>
wolf OP ,

Could you ELI5 the last five settings? I saw that Chrome OS sets vm.overcommit_memory = 1, it seems to make sense but is missing here.

Samueru ,

I really don’t know lol

Increasing the max_map_count is needed for some Steam games, iirc Arch is now dong this by default.

iirc the dirty_bytes settings prevent the system from hanging if there is too much disk IO

And setting transparent_hugepages to madvise was something I did when archlinux had this bug in the kernel: old.reddit.com/…/higher_ram_usage_since_kernel_67…

It was eventually fixed but I later ran into the issue again and I decided to keep it on madvise.

wolf OP ,

Nice, thanks a lot, especially the dirty_bytes settings are interesting to me, because I experience hangs with too much disk IO :-P.

Cheers!
