Doesn’t VirtualBox use KVM if it’s available?
I likeVBoxManage
. Any crazy thing I’ve ever imagined doing with a VM it’s already supported.
So, to answer your question - I use VirtualBox because it does everything I want and I’ve never had a reason to look elsewhere.
Some of the videos of this are really frustrating to watch. Like, what are you trying to do!? You just found your spot, now you’re coming back out?? More circling, stopping, going back, going forward. Uughghhh…
Wow, thanks for this. Those are two very similar flags and I missed this entirely.
Everyone - Now that you know my passphrase, be sure to keep it a secret!
VisiData may do what you want.
Are you happy with the Kiyo X?
I don’t really want to give some of your hyperbolic statements credibility by replying, but - I’ve been loving Mudeer for tiling. I’m not sure if it qualifies as a true tiling window manager and my setup does straddle the line between tiling and floating, but it works great for me.
f2fs doesn’t track file creation times. I thought I was ok with this, but, the longer I used it the more places it started to become an issue. Now I have all these notes that were created in 1970 and it just really takes away a powerful way of searching and organizing my notes.
Really? There are some pretty serious trade-offs that Qubes requires if you’re going to use it as your daily driver. I’m far more security-conscious than anyone I know, but I couldn’t bring myself to make those trade-offs.
That’ll depend on the server you’re connecting to to test your speed, and also if you’re using wifi.
Shaw (in Western Canada) seems to route everything through Seattle so there’s like a built-in 20 millisecond delay for every destination.
I really enjoyed reading this, thank you.
I’d be interested in reading more about the benefits of using an atomic distro, if you were looking for ideas on things to write about. I imagine it must make system upgrades easier but what about replicating your setup elsewhere? Like if I was doing some development and now I need to throw some serious hardware at the problem, could I just backup all my Flatpaks some configs, and spin up my desktop on a cloud VM?
I’m pretty sure that’s what Nix is all about, but the learning curve seems steep.
I’m loving the new camera update and I don’t have anyone to tell… I think it’s awesome they’re doing this for a previous-generation phone.
I really appreciate this, thank you. I think I had confused myself by playing with ‘u16’ and ‘u8’ and somehow coming to the conclusion that they were matching the right side of a 32-bit string. (Which may still be true, but, I’m just masking u32s now).
This is what I ended up with, which is working the way I’d expect:
tc filter add dev wlan0 protocol ip parent 1: prio 1 u32 \
match u32 0x30d6 0x0000ffff at -16 \
match u32 0xc92d1905 0xffffffff at -12 flowid 1:20
This sends Ethernet frames destined for 30:d6:c9:2d:19:05 to flow 1:20, and it doesn’t seem to match a second device I tested. So, all good! Thank you again.
Here’s a little script I’ve put in my $PATH, called memsum
:
#!/usr/bin/bash
/usr/bin/ps -eo rss,command --sort -rss | egrep $1 | awk '{ hr=$1/1024 ; sum +=hr} END {print sum}'
Now you can go: memsum firefox
or memsum whatever
and see that, actually, apps use a ridiculous amount of memory these days.
I can get Firefox up to 8GB by using things like Office 365.
Sublime?! What packages are you running with that?
Oooh, don’t do the Pinebook Pro. I think anything Pine64 isn’t unsuitable for a non-tinkerer to be using. Also, if there’s DRM content involved (unsure on Hulu), you’ll probably want to stick with an x86 CPU.
Agreed on the latency issues. I tested SMB and NFS once and found them to be pretty much the same in that regard.
I’m interested to test iSCSI, as for some reason I think it might be better designed for latency.
I’ve found that Dolphin, at least, is much slower with network mounts than a CLI-based “mount”.
Are you leaving behind the dotfiles because you don’t want to bring over any of your old configuration?
For whatever it’s worth, you can remove Snap support from your Ubuntu system. If you want more current software, AppImage and Flatpaks are good for that.
I tried using KOrganize which had KMail and some other stuff integrated together and ended up feeling like it was a gigantic, archaic codebase just hanging on by a thread. It struggled a lot with Gmail and several times I deleted my whole mail profile to try to fix some strange bug.
If I recall, what did me in was that it would stop sending emails after running for a while. The fix had something to do with restarting Akonadi. It was really disappointing, because I love a good UI/Plasma integration.
I use Thunderbird now and … eh. It’s ok.
