hopefully it’s good, don’t want to mix work and personal stuff


according to internet, it’s shit


Little bits and pieces but mostly bug fixes - I like my shit working but maintenance is not my strong suit, more of a traveling contributor or drive-thru fixer.
I believe I fixed calling in one electron messenger.com wrapper before - that was fun but these days I usually try to help the game BAR whenever I have extra time.
Edit: Keep forgetting but I am also maintaining few apps on AUR, nothing big except for maybe one helper tool/calculator for EVE online


unsure if the translations work well in english but checkout Christian Morgenstern, he made similar “silly” poems
Linux has kind of two forms of memory pages (entries in RAM), one is a file cache (page cache) and the other is “memory allocated by programs for work” (anonymous pages).
When you look at memory consumed by a process you are looking at RSS, page/file cache is part of kernel and for example in btop corresponds to Cached.
Page cache can never be moved into swap - that would be the same as duplicating the file from one place on a disk to another place on a (possibly different) disk.
If more memory is needed, page cache is evicted (written back into the respective file, if changed).
Only anonymous pages (not backed by anything permanent) can be moved into swap.
So what does “PostgreSQL heavily relies on the OSs disk cache” mean? The more free memory there is, the more files can be kept cached in RAM and the faster postgres can then retrieve these files.
When you add zram, you dedicate part of actual RAM to a compressed swap device which, as I said above, will never contain page cache.
In theory this still increases the total available memory but in reality that is only true if you configure the kernel to aggressively “swap” anonymous pages into the zram backed swap.
Notes: I tried to simplify this a bit so it might not be exact, also if you look at a process, the memory consumed by it is called RSS and it contains multiple different things not just memory directly allocated by the code of the program.

FredrikkNudsen’s down the rabbit hole, just pick any.
I really enjoyed the one about computers beating humans in chess - Deep Blue


that’s sucky as fuck, like why would you do that? if they don’t want to support it anymore then at least open source the implementation or the spec


could I get a bit of context for this? not well read in VR things


I don’t have an answer either but there is also checkupdates from pacman-contrib pkg, it optionally allows you to pre-DL the updated packages into the (global package) cache


it’s good, the bad: beta maps are small so it’s not exactly the BF experience of old, there should be bigger maps on release. Also no server browser, invasive antichet and EA, but it is good
Maybe this came with the installation script


are you paraphrasing what the article said or saying it yourself?


I’ve tested the beta yesterday and only had to enable SB and leave it in custom mode - no need to sign & enroll the linux kernel(s) too

Best bet would be that something reloaded/changed the underlying ip/nftables bypassing ufw (ufw is just a frontend, I do not know if it periodically verifies the current rules are correct and it would feel extraneous to me if it did). Or it didn’t apply it correctly.
You can get the actual rules with iptables-save (dunno about respective nftables command)
If your primary usecase is going to be music (so a need for realtime capabilities for stuff like recording, VSTs and DAWs) then I do not reccomend immutable distros for a simple reason: you will probably/eventually need to hack something up to get it to work and at that moment, the immutability is just extra work.
As far as I have tried fiddling with the music stack on Linux (which is not that much), the whole pipewire/JACK/carla stack is a bit messy and I can’t imagine it working with flatpacks due to the sandboxing/permissions.
in that case you can grab any of the other distros that are Arch-based, EndeavourOS/Garuda/CachyOS and so on. You will get the benefits of rolling-release like fresh-er software without the need to setup & configure it yourself.
yeah, Pyro style
I mean I might have a laughing pikachu tattooed, from my side you are good
