@troyunrau KDE wastes too much screen space and too much of my time. It's pretty but inefficient.
@lancalot Only that I've run just about every debian derived distro there is and Ubuntu is the only one that has reliably upgraded in place.
@MonkeMischief @reallyzen NIS is seriously broken in Suse and I've had a bug report in four at least four years and they won't fix it. So no good in a network.
@troyunrau In mate it's a drop down menu not a key.
@vga I can only tell you that if my personal net worth was 50 million, I'd be looking for a new national home yesterday.
@griefstricken Yea I don't think where the servers are hosted is the issue, if it were I'd be seeing this same traffic on my other social media sites and from other than lemmy servers here. Well there are about there other non-lemmy sites that are problematic but in a different way, lot of racist comments from a handful.
@zwekihoyy Yea I've heard that excuse but on the Internet there are infinitely more Linux servers and still Windows is more often compromised. I think it has more to do with thousands of eyes on the code submitting bug reports and fixes.
@possiblylinux127 It was a very high powered CPU, i9-10980xe, overclocked for all I could get out of it. At max load, it drew around 540 watts. Supplies were rated at 1kw but both short lived, the Seasonic I replaced them with is 1200 watts, also even cables are better quality, previous supplies cables were 16 guage but those that came with Seasonic, 12 guage.
@dustyData @evasync I've been working with Linux since 1992, I have a better idea of how I want my disks laid out then an installer script.
When you spin up the drive, the motor has to overcome the mass of the disks to bring them up to speed, requiring more torque, current, and wear, than just keeping them at that speed. On the other hand, bearings don't wear out at zero RPM. Bearings go, motor goes, either way drive is dead. Regarding bearings ALWAYS mount drives so that they are horizontal, this results in minimal bearing wear and load.
I have several machines with Nvidia GPUs, they are all working fine, one thing I like about Intel internal graphics that you can't do with Nvidia is to use pass
through of virtual GPU's to get OS's in kvm-qemu virtual machines, giving the ability to play Windows video games in a virtual machine with usable performance.
@lord_ryvan Interesting, haven't played that game so no experience with it. VirtualBox does do some things a bit differently, I was not able to get flyff to run it well, it runs but at about 3fps, where as it runs normally in kvm/qemu.
