Not the OP, but if they mentioned they did it from Termux you can install an X server and a full desktop browser like Firefox either directly or via a chroot/proot "container" via …

3 dB would be halving/doubling. With 10 dB, you would get a ratio of 10x.

As a fellow alternative Ubuntu user, one additional difference is the LTS support schedule which is shorter for Ubuntu alternatives. For example, Xubuntu 24.04 is supported until 2…

One nice benefit for optical media is that it's hard read only by default. This makes it easy to ensure the install media does not get corrupted by overwrites or malware.

They mention Zen 2 and 3, any info on Zen 1? Would it simply apply as well?

For some cars, getting to reverse requires to press down the shifter and then shift to the same position as 1st. I think this scheme would not work in such cases.

That's a good list of reasons, however it seems the biggest concern is if you run a dedicated DNS service on your network. For a simple home network setup, as long as naming confli…

They list under hardware requirements "a powerful graphics card with at least 6 GB VRAM is recommended. Otherwise generating images will take very long" Does anyone have any idea w…

After more than 15 years of average default Ubuntu user, I also had to move, in my case I went to OpenSuse Tumbleweed (TW). While there were a lot of Ubuntu changes over the years,…

I've been doing just that with a Raspberry Pi Zero W and a USB ethernet adapter. The eth adapter is set to dhcp, and the wifi sets a hotspot. The wireguard adapter is routed/from t…

Not OP and certainly not in the anti-IPv6 camp. I'm wondering though: could you build a case that under IPv4, a misconfigured NAT would only result in lost connectivity for nodes b…

I use this on Windows because of the dual pane layout which allows me to easily move/copy files around, but also do other nice stuff like file diffs, though probably other apps out…

You probably need to look into disabling the Android phantom process killer. I had a similar issue and could not get DEs such as XFCE running for a long time and after the fix it w…

How do you handle security updates? Can these be done separately?

Or if you're confident enough in your macro definition you can do C-u 0 C-x e to repeat until it reaches the end of the buffer.

I had some good experience with Asus MiniPC P50 - also 8 cores, Ryzen. I noticed it was barely audible while running with a VM active.

As others have already mentioned the Lattice ice40 family is supported by OSS chains through project icestorm [0]. There were some nice boards floating around though you may have t…

It depends. As a counter example think of Scientific Linux [0] which was also an RH clone supported by Fermilab and CERN. It eventually got replaced by this "obscure" distro called…
