I don’t know of any project that already supports that AI processor. You’d still be using the CPU and GPU at the moment.

exu ,

What happened in Gnome for them to merge so much stuff recently?

exu ,

I can really recommend XCP-ng. For me it strikes a pretty good balance of features and ease of use.

exu ,

You mean to tell me nhentai is your model porn site?

exu ,

A lot of the stuff you get on nhentai is sometimes questionable. Like 12y/o looking sister questionable.
And what exactly did nhentai figure out that Pornhub didn’t?

exu ,

You mean just not caring or something else?
Thing is, you can’t just do that as a registered corporation, even if you’re from another country.

exu ,

Is that a standard systemd configuration or something enabled by a distro?

exu ,

There are basically two different approaches to drivers. Windows will have some very basic drivers built-in, but most of them are downloaded and installed when a component that requires them is detected in current versions of Windows.

Linux on the other hand includes every driver it knows about out of the box. You won’t ever need to install additional drivers if the hardware is supported. This makes Linux an excellent portable system, you can just take a drive out of one pc with an AMD CPU and Nvidia GPU and put it into one with an Intel CPU and AMD GPU without driver issues*.

*as long as you stick to the included drivers

It will be the workers, with their courage, resolution and self-sacrifice, who will be chiefly responsible for achieving victory. The petty bourgeoisie will hesitate as long as possible and remain fearful, irresolute and inactive; but when victory is certain it will claim it for itself and will call upon the workers to behave in an orderly fashion, and it will exclude the proletariat from the fruits of victory. … the rule of the bourgeois democrats, from the very first, will carry within it the seeds of its own destruction, and its subsequent displacement by the proletariat will be made considerably easier…

exu ,

You can pay ARM to build and sell cores, you can’t do that for x86.

exu ,

Usually you can get the kernel source for Qualcomm at least, MediaTek tho…

exu ,

New stuff gets called AI until it is useful, then we call it something else.

exu ,

And 2d, who self host on a server/VPS they rented somewhere.

exu ,

Using whatever works better for the current project is doing Hybrid Cloud. Now your boss can brag about how modern the infrastructure is.

exu ,

An active fork (last I checked) would be hyfetch.

Relevant Chipsandcheese article

exu ,

Your best bet is anything Wacom as they have their own driver in Linux. Alternatively OpenTabletDriver supports some other tablets as well opentabletdriver.net/Tablets.
Or the DIGImend kernel driver digimend.github.io/drivers/digimend/tablets/

exu ,

Wifi works now, the wiki is out of date.
However, the Pinetab 2 does not have the screen layer for stylus support. See the FAQ

exu ,

KDEConnect?

exu ,

Apparently Cisco operates a popular DNS resolver? Never heard of that before.

And definitely don’t learn how to use a VPN. Or set up Unbound or Bind or PowerDNS Recursive…

exu ,

ISPs were already required to block the sites. I don’t think an additional block on the Cisco side would change anything in that case.

QT Theme management in Sway

I use VLC,Keepass,Kdenlive and few other QT Apps on my sway setup. So, wanted to configure their themes from Sway. I installed qt5ct and qt6ct and did export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct in bashrc and .profile. While runnin echo $QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME it is showing qt5ct but it is not working showing that error message that...

exu ,

In my experience setting environment variables is pretty inconsistent. The easiest way would be using /etc/environment. This sets stuff globally for all users and definitely works.

PAM also used to support a per-user environment file, but that’s deprecated or removed even. The best you can do for per-user config is setting variables both in your login shell and the systemd user environments file.

Found a security bug in LMDE6, need some help (i.imgur.com)

I have an older Intel laptop that has a 1600x900 display, and I find that if I put the machine to sleep, connect an external monitor with a higher resolution, and then turn it back on, the login screen doesn’t adjust to the new resolution and it reveals what I had open (see photo)....

exu ,

Or Wayland, where this isn’t an issue.

exu ,

Does your wine support Wayland natively maybe? Proton doesn’t yet, and I found some games have issues with that.

I usually use ganescope for such games. Maybe try that

exu ,

I don’t have an ultrawide to test, but can you set the correct resolution in the game? Maybe it’s using the settings from previous launches with 16:9.

exu ,

You can install Wireguard or another VPN to encrypt your traffic to the VPS.

exu ,

I already learnt of blendOS two weeks ago, I think in a discussion of immutable distros.

Really looking forward to play around with it some more and maybe replace my Arch install with this.

exu ,

Set ‘blendos-base’ in your system.yaml, install additional packages, update and reboot.

exu ,

Apparently this wasn’t always that obvious.

…m.wikipedia.org/…/Apple_Corps_v_Apple_Computer

exu ,

On the other hand, I haven’t really had issues with Realtek. Probably because their gigabit chipsets have been out for long enough to be stable.

exu ,

Creative Commons is likely more appropriate for FOSR.

exu ,

Big ass enter is way better than the small one.
You can’t change my mind.

exu ,

You’ll want to install a reverse proxy of your choice on the VPS. Have clients access it over ipv4 and configure it to proxy pass it to your ipv6 address. Nginx at least is capable of doing ipv4 & ipv6 -> ipv4, I think the inverse should also be possible.

exu ,

You could just run everything as root or configure sudo without timeout.

exu ,

It’ll also ignore the default firewalld rules. IIRC it uses the internal zone instead

exu ,

Firewalld had, at least last time I checked, way more capabilities than UFW. Both are fine at being basic firewalls, but I don’t think you can build a router using just UFW.

Firewalld allows some pretty advanced rules. I use it to redirect a bunch of web requests going to a certain address over a local ssh tunnel.

exu ,

You can use OpenCL instead of ROCm for GPU offloading. In my tests with llama.cpp that improved performance massively.

Definitely do benchmarks for how many layers you can offload to the GPU. You’ll see when it’s too many, as performance will crater.

By launching llama.cpp as a server you’ll actually be able to continue to use openwebui as you currently have.

exu ,

It would probably take someone to sue them, but they would have to implement it.

exu ,

It’s probably still more efficient to keep a 192k opus and a 320k mp3 around than one flac.

exu ,

I remember a HackerNews comment by the lead XFCE dev about how KDE was actually better optimized, because they have so many more devs working on it.

exu ,

Yes. I use a hacky script to copy them to the right place

exu ,

Cron sadly does not offer precision in the seconds range.

exu ,

*for 20-series and later graphics cards

exu ,

I don’t know how good it is, but for Turing and later GPUs there’s a new official open source driver being developed. You’d likely have to use a more bleeding edge distro to get that.

VR works depending on your headset. Index is fine, Oculus doesn’t work.

You could make a usb stick of your desired distro and test everything without permanent changes before commiting.

Apple's Wifi router database: Surveilling the Masses with Wi-Fi-Based Positioning Systems (www.cs.umd.edu)

Apple’s huge database, which usually records the locations of Wi-Fi base stations to the nearest metre, has apparently been exploited without hindrance: With little effort, attackers are able to create a ‘global snapshot’ of all the location data of the WLANs recorded there. This allows them - over a longer period of time...

exu ,

With Mozilla Location Services going away soon, I’m wondering at the legality of using the Apple data to seed a replacement.

exu ,

You could use BTRFS, ZFS or BcacheFS to do compression on the filensystem level, but it’s not gonna compress video files or other already compressed media.

exu ,

Without knowing what was being hosted, the only surefire way would be pulling a complete disk image with cat or dd.

If you wanted to stay on a similar system, RHEL 9 would be a good option or one of its “as similar as possible” like AlmaLinux.

Other common distros for servers are Debian, Ubuntu server and Suse SLES/OpenSuse Leap.
