  • You probably won’t be able to run an LTS kernel on a brand new PC that just hit the market. But using the most recent kernel for arch or a derivative like endevorOS should work after like a week maximum.

    I did have an issue like this on Ubuntu and its what made me actually start distro hopping since it worked fine on fedora and Arch using the latest kernels.





  • I was running xfce for a while on my old laptop with only 8 GB of ram. Thinking that it was the least resource usage DE. (Which i think it still is but i havent tested in a bit).

    Then i got a new pc and tried kde and to my amazment it used just a tiny bit more resources than xfce did on my old laptop. I then installed kde on that old pc and it ran perfectly well. kde had a lot more QOL compared to xfce in my opionion, with none of the jank.

    Its intersting how much different our experiences are.

    What would you recomend for a DE?


  • I recommend EndeavorOS now to everyone that actually wants to learn linux, or people that don’t want to be “fighting” their os.

    It works enough to not have to do anything to it besides update, including installing nvidia drivers. And it’s arch based so they can just read the arch wiki if they have questions.

    Honestly the only issue ive had with it is one of apps not working on wayland so i just had to switch to x11.

    Its a little less noob friendly than manjaro (they had great guis that make it so you never need to open a terminal at all) but i cant recommend manjaro anymore since they dont support the latest version of pacman.

    As far as an os that’s close to enterprise servers, if they aren’t contanerizing the workloads and running k8s on a distroless (or atleast minimal) base image then i don’t want to work there anyway.



  • I don’t understand why there is a bull market.

    Wouldn’t the latest CPI report mean that the FED is less likely to lower interest rates which in turn would mean the high APY cash accounts are going to stay in effect for longer? Meaning a 5% APY on liquid cash without risk.

    The only reason I can think of is that Boomers are trying to maximize their retirement funds and not reading anything, not even headlines.

    But this wouldn’t take into account the large banks and firms that are really leading the bull run.

    Is this really just because of the idea that there is a potential for “AI” to increase productivity?

    None of it makes sense to me, but I’m not an economist.



  • In TBD, it’s not a “release” until its production ready. The methodology and philosophy doesn’t prevent you from developing multiple feature branches at once or even deploying a work in progress feature branch to a dev environment.

    All TBD requires in that case is once the feature branch is production ready, it’s merged to the trunk. You may need to add a feature toggle if there are multiple release like for different architectures. And you also might benefit from using git tags and deploying to production from a git tag instead of the most recent commit on a branch.

    Exactly what you need to do is going to depend on the project’s exact needs but TBD is totally possible in that example.




  • I just used kagi to search for the conversion, and thought the long decimal was funny.

    But now that I think of it, does Canada make it’s own 4 L jugs so they can be accurately advertised or do they just use the US 1 gal jugs and call it a 4 L out of convenience but then write in fine print on the bottom that it’s actually 3.79 L?

    Unless that is actually a 4L jug of vodka, couldn’t someone sue for misrepresenting the amount of product being sold?

    Someone’s liquid here is probably not precise. And I’m going to guess it’s the one claiming to be a larger volume with an additional manufacturing cost.
