I'll check that out. In my case I had moved straight from Fedora and was using LUKS + EXT4 -- with no issues whatsoever. Further, rather than losing some write speed, my system will actually hang quite aggressively. It seems to be CPU-

I tried it with BTRFS and had really terrible performance. I ended up trying ext4 and it was not appreciably better. I don't know the make and model of my SSD, but I'm sure it's a not-very-impressive SSD. Unencrypted with EXT

Does anyone have any idea why Cachy is so hard on I/O? If I run it with disk encryption my entire system hangs intermittently when downloading large files. (eg steam updates, etc.) Even testing without disk encryption, I will get brief

Yes, but do you have any specifics? No one seems to have any specifics. I don't mean "plausible explanations of what the government might wish to to" -- I mean "specific actors pushing specific agendas."

Only if I keep using the internet. It's time to move back to books. I hope you have an MP3 (or FLAC, etc) collection. The internet is dying, and it's difficult to imagine in 20-40 years that it's much use except for functiona

Everything is spreading. We're a large interconnected world, and we'll inherit everyone's problems eventually. There are better alternatives, but it's not something people will seriously consider.

It's quite sad, the old 1997 F-150 (the first year of the quite-ugly-but-practical "bubble" aesthetic) specifically advertised its low front hood as an intentional measure to improve visibility. And that thing had better visi

People spend a lot of time on Trucks, but I don't see why SUVs get a pass. Every single car is an SUV now. They're higher up, heavier, and have a higher beltline all so that drivers can "feel safer."

The prices I think a lot of us expected. I know Valve is being pressured by the market, but I can't imagine buying one for this price, even if I'm really excited for the Steam Machine. That said, the Steam Deck is now so expensive

According to the NVIDIA CEO, yes. He's quite ravenous at the possibility that before he only had humans as customers, but now he is potentially opening up a new customer base where agents are customers.

It's no surprise. The wild tech optimism of the 1990s and 2000s has completely fallen apart as time and time again tech companies have proved to be some of the most hostile actors in most American's lives. Perhaps edged out only b

I agree with your points, but I would prefer a world where Putin would say "call this off, it's too risky given the enmity we've fostered."
