really effects performance that much

Depending on the exact flags, some workloads will be faster, some will be identical, and some will be slower. Compilier optimization is some dark magic that relies on a ton of factors, but you can’t just assume that going from like -O2 to -O3 will provide better performance, since the optimizations also rely on the underlying code as to what they’ll actually make happen… and is why, for the most part, everyone suggests you stop at -O2 since you can start getting unexpected behavior the further up the curve you go.

And we’re talking low single digit performance improvements at best, not anything that anyone who is doing anything that’s not running benchmarks 24/7 would ever even notice in real world performance.

Disclaimer: there are workloads that are going to show different performance uplifts, but we’re talking Firefox and KDE and games here, per the OP’s comments.

Also they do default to a different scheduler, which is almost certainly why anyone using it will notice it feels “faster”, but it’s mainlined in the kernel so it’s not like you can’t use that anywhere else.

The master-omnibus image bundles all that into a single container is MUCH simpler to deploy.

Literally just used their compose file they provide at https://github.com/AnalogJ/scrutiny/blob/master/docker/example.omnibus.docker-compose.yml and added in the device names and was done.

Are uptimekuma and whatever you’re trying to monitor on the same physical hardware, or is it all different kit?

My first feeling is that you’ve got some DNS/routing configuration that’s causing issues if you’re leaving your local network and then going through two layers before coming back in, especially if you have split horizon DNS.

For sure, just wanted to mention that it’s not just the China side of the trip you need to be vigilant about.

If your device is out of your sight, then yeah, you should probably assume it’s compromised.

Of course, that’s hardly JUST China doing funky shit with your devices, but depending where you’re calling home, odds are customs/immigration when you head home will try to do the exact same thing, too.

And the answer to everything is yes, always use a VPN if you don’t trust the network and you should never trust the network.

Judging from the last time I looked at their comment platform, it had the feeling that the only users of it were ones that were banned from Youtube because of the toxic shit they’re wanting to post so I mean, I guess, but it’s not the experience you’re wanting, probably.

Does !12345:p do what you want?

Edit: that also makes hitting the up arrow result in whatever command that was, so if you wanted to edit the line or whatever, you could !12345:p, up, then edit and execute.

Uh, are you sure your shell you’re using is bash and not zsh or something else?

Bash is indeed just !12345.

Oooh, ooh, I get to use my favorite theory on the internet!

So I don’t think it’s a violence vs pacifism fight, but rather the VERY clear fact that the Federation is technologically superior to all the antagonists they’ve had to deal with.

So much so that they willingly disregarded research into certain military technologies via treaties simply because they didn’t need them, and were very certain they’d be on the top of the heap even without them.

And it’d be why, when the Romulans returned, there was an implied ‘Well fuck!’ when they saw what a warbird looked like now, and that it was on par with the best the Federation was fielding.

So back to the technological superiority bit: Q actually says this before tossing the Enterprise to the Borg. Everyone was smug, because they knew they were superior to the Cardassians and Klingons and to some extent, even the Romulans still.

The Borg was a nasty wakeup call that, no, they’re not some pinnacle of engineering might but still on the bottom of the barrel and just deluded because everyone who happened to be neighbors were worse but that was only a fluke of uh, geography.

And for that theory: Q tossed the Enterprise at the Borg because he’s a fan of humans for some reason, and that was an easy way to force a massive military buildup and thus the only way the Federation had even the slightest chance against the Dominion.

discovery of the Borg, the Federation changed their ship designs

They hired a Klingon consultancy firm which suggested ‘Shoot first, and then have diplomatic conversations with their corpses.’ as the improved Federation policy.

So really, don’t need an empathic counselor.

Why not save time and do it the other way?

Install the minimal/netinstall image, and then add what you need.

You’ll probably spend less time adding than trying to figure out what’s installed that you do or don’t need and trying to remove random packages without breaking anything.

two commands: dd and resize2fs, assuming you’re using ext4 and not something more exotic.

one makes a block-level copy of one device to another like so: dd if=/dev/source-drive of=/dev/destination-drive

the other is used to resize the filesystem from whatever size it was, to whatever size you tell it (or the whole disk; I’d have to go read a manpage since it’s been a bit)

the dd is completely safe, but the resize2fs command can break things, but you’d still have the data on the original drive, so you could always start over if it does - i’d unplug the source drive before you start doing any expansion stuff.

Yeah quicksync won’t help you there.

I thought nVidia’s limit was enforced by their drivers, but that’s probably changed since it’s been a while since I looked at nvenc as a solution (quicksync, then an ARC card over here).

dd then resize the fs?

Edit: one caveat here I forgot: if your fstab is using UUIDs, you’re going to have to update that, since the new drive won’t be the same UUID because, well, it’s not the same drive.

If you have an Intel CPU with quicksync, it will likely perform better than the 1060 in terms of visual quality, if its coffee lake or newer (8th gen).

If not, well, it’ll be fine up to whatever the stream limit is (4?).

Because most of us are arrogant, short-sighted, stupid, greedy, and have no empathy.

At this point I know I need to move to a blue as fuck state, or maybe emigrate to somewhere with better enshrined lgbt rights, universal healthcare, and legal weed, like say Mexico.

(I’m kidding but only just barely.)

You seem to have missed the global nuclear war that happened between the bell riots and shiny space communism.

Wouldn’t mind avoiding that, though it seems like thats getting more and more probable.

Things might get better, after everyone dies for stupid bullshit, but that’s hardly a comfort.

Fair, but he said he wants to move from Windows to Linux, so I just assumed there wasn’t going to be any of those since, well, they’re not going to run in Linux anyways.

Not in a way you’re probably going to like.

You could set up a bare metal hypervisor on the system and set up a VM for your NAS, Windows, and Linux and swap between them as needed, but uh, that’s not really an exceedingly pleasant desktop use case, for a number of reasons, one of which is that you really won’t have the normal ‘sit down, and use the computer’ desktop experience.

Alternate option: run the NAS and either the Linux or Windows install in a VM, and keep it booted into, say, the desktop Linux environment with everything else being a virtualized setup.

Since android apps are required, I’d maybe go about this another way: find the app you like the most, then stand up whatever backend it uses for sync.

I was already in the FreshRSS ecosystem, but man, I don’t really like any of the android apps on offer, but swapping at this point would be annoying (bookmarks, saved stories, etc.)
