Depending on HDMI spec supported, an HDMI port can power pretty high specced display. I am not sure where this cheap monitor thing is coming from.

This is moot now right? Because even though magsafe point is back, they are still shiping with USBC charger by default.

Personally I love containers and I can't imagine using a browser without them. Though one issue which has been long standing for me is - tab search ('%') only works for current container. This is a big problem if you have 10-

How is the latency btw? I SSH to a beefy box that sits under my table and sometimes I hate the latency of running emacsclient over X. But I am not using VIM and I don't use terminal emacs because of clipboard integration betweeen remot

For the most part hardware lottery can be summarized in one word - Nvidia. Don't buy laptops with Nvidia card if you want to use Linux. Optimus is crap, prime offloading is crap and often laptop manufacturers hardwire external hmdi to

I love syncthing, but one thing which I think it does not quite do right is - on my Windows desktop each time desktop is resumed from sleep or reboot, it performs full sync by scanning everything. It takes all the CPU for awhile until synct

That I think is almost entirely false. People don't use Linux because it is free (as in beer). People for whom cost is the primary concern can pirate Windows, buy cheap versions from online stores or install a legitimate version of Win

for many of us this fixes a show stopper bug while downloading packages from MELPA/ELPA. I was just trying to setup on a new Fedora box (emacs-26.2) and my setup kept failing on "Failed to download archive...".

Personally for me - the problematic part of gaming on Linux has been input(i.e mouse) latency and acceleration profile. I am not sure if this is just my experience but when using libinput on Fedora for example - the cursor movement is not e

I think you are right. I guess my theory was based on some pre-conceived notion that was not entirely accurate. Wikipedia does say: >The Andaman and Nicobar Islands of India are geographically considered part of Maritime Southeast Asia.

I do not think EBS support in Kubernetes was experimental in 2017. I am one of the maintainers of in-tree EBS driver and we have tried our best to iron out any bugs reported. There are still bugs, I do not disagree. Data loss bugs are consi
