We'll have to wait for the benchmarks and YouTube videos. What if the new AMD cards look amazing without DLSS and have comparable framerates? I current have a small-form-factor case with a 2080-Ti in it. As it stand, the biggest nVidia

There are tiling window managers for Wayland. Sway is one that is meant to maintain configuration file comparability with i3. But yes, obscure tiling managers will need to be rewritten for Wayland.

Have any of the BSD (FreeBSD/OpenBSD/NetBSD) started the transition to Wayland yet? X is more than just Linux? There are a lot of other operating systems out there and many have their own X11 forks they maintain.

We already know CoV2 rarely causes any symptoms in children. I wonder if there was a time in prehistory where common Rhinoviruses and Coronaviruses wiped out larger populations of elderly. Even if our immune system memory doesn't last

The author isn't encrypting /boot. GRUB does support this if you're using LUKS1 (and LUKS2 is coming soon). I wrote a guide for doing this with Alpine: https://battlepenguin.com/tech/alpine-linux-with-ful

I've heard people ask "Will all of this go away after the election," and we're seeing the same hysteria over COVID-19 in places like Canada and VIC, Australia, so my gut response would be 'no' ... But you canno

My two big uses cases for youtube-dl: 1) Downloading videos to use later in editing for analysis pieces / editorial videos. 2) Download videos that may disappear in a "No longer available" blackhole. The 2nd is incredibly use

The right solution is that people should move off of Twitter and leave that wretched garbage platform in the dust. I wrote this the other day, but people have already pointed out tons of problems with it and I tend to agree with those issue

It's kinda shitty if Epik knows they are participating in questionable business practices, can't answer basic questions needed for SEC, and then turn around and try to spit this out as the whole thing being political. This hurts p
