X.com: terror from the deep.

I have C-states already disabled because of old linux kernel bug where the kernel hang on Zen3 architecture. So not much to see here :)

You still can, SmartTube could be sideloaded on smart TVs and/or TV sticks with usbOTG cable. https://smarttube.app/ It can skip ads and/or sponsor segments, intro, outro etc.

I'm running it's older cousin - N36L with 4 Drives. The CPU in that one is Athlon II Neo N36L with 12W TDP, 3.5" spinning drives are 7-10W per drive. So 40W is very reasonable. Op …

There's just one slightly opaque pitfall, not all laptops have a BIOS setting where you can specify what to do on power-loss and power-resume. So the laptop "server" stays off and …

Been converting friends and colleagues to refurbished Fujitsu Futros S720 for quite some time, because RasPis are not attainable. They go for like €21 with 2G mSata SSD and 2G RAM,…

Does this work for anybody? I've just tried it in a KVM Debian 11 VM on proxmox. Deploying from yml manifest does not like my `ssh: true', removing existing /etc/firecracker/manife…

FWIW, I've installed Monterey on the 11" Air Early 2014 and indeed, no root patching is necessary. OCLP only needs to be installed in the EFI partition to boot. csrutil status says…

There was a thread about running older versions of OSX and macos: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31164521 In that thread, you get to learn how you can run latest chromium on …

Used Debian and Ubuntu on Macbook Air 2015 before. In ubuntu everything works out of the box, but camera - you need to compile your own driver from github. You pay a bit in battery…

Actually, I'm running Monterey on mac mini late-2012 with i7 and 16G of RAM and if I don't apply the root patches, I don't have transparency or acceleration in the UI. After root p…

Thanks! I'm aware of this. I don't know how to describe it properly - the old OSX icons, even the "lickable" control buttons in snow leopard look just right. It's almost like there…

I really miss the colors and contrast of Snow Leopard. I was able to relatively okay with things up to High Sierra. Mojave brought random freezes on wake (~10s) on my Macbook Air 2…
