The aspect ratio is correct on all screenshots and are accurate de-interlaced representations of a 640x400/512 workbench setup, even though these particular screenshots are in RTG dimensions. Starting with ECS, the Amiga was also capab

I'm sure someone reading this thread has UAE handy in order to contribute a screenshot of AmigaOS/Workbench 1.x.

I have the A1 Mini as well. Mostly having sat unused since I bought it a few years back, I'm now wondering if the thing will function normally again. Any advice on basic "cold boot" maintenance? It's been a year since I

If you with "he" mean Daniel Micay, I unfortunately agree, based on observations from previously having idled in the GOS Discord for a couple of years. Plenty of downright mean and unforgiving behavior, not seldom due to him misin

If you are referring to his video from May 2023, "Why I deleted GrapheneOS", it is about the team lead, Daniel Micay, not about GrapheneOS itself. He, in fact, praises GrapheneOS to no end in the very same video.

My approach is to run a VPS with multiple static IPs that I (using Wireguard) tunnel to a number of virtual machines I host at home on a microserver. Likewise, the virtual machines' primary view of the Internet starts on the opposite s

Yeah, theoretically. They "only" need continued access to CF's internal systems. Surely you're aware that the ZSK is confined to your zone and can be rotated as much as you want without having to involve the root/re

by daneel_w 5mo ago
Which is fine. Not because KSK rollover is supposedly complicated, but if you can't manage to keep your private keys and PKI safe in the first place then key rotation is just a security circus trick. But if you do know how to keep them

Using BRIN for certain columns resulted in an improvement. Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks a bunch for all of the config tuning advice. Can see huge improvements in both flattening the creeping slow-down and really pushing back the point where we eventually hit the wall. Just lowering the fill factor on the indices made a

My impression is that InnoDB (MySQL's primary storage engine) is doing something like this. We have never seen any slow-downs on adding to the data set I've discussed in this thread, even at hundreds of millions of rows, and per t

We've reached the same conclusion in other situations. Great for reliable and scalable storage, not so great for focused intense i/o.

Ext4 with journaling. I've played around with XFS as well just to see what would happen. No major difference. I'm certain it's caused by the way Postgres builds its indices.

They are fully stable and perform very well in Postgres today. There are some caveats, but they don't result in any sort of hiccups or unpredictable behavior.

I've built a lot of API backends with Perl and FCGI::ProcManager, letting nginx (and Apache HTTPd in the past) front everything. For me it has been a pleasantly simple, incredibly robust and high-performing setup with no mess to speak
