Fragmentation is definitely a problem on Linux systems, but I'll take freedom with the resulting fragmentation over someone making the choice for me. Especially when that choice is almost guaranteed to be suboptimal for some subset of

This is one of the biggest reasons I no longer boot Windows at all, combined with the rather good support for gaming on Linux nowadays. When I boot up my Windows install for the first time in months and it wants to waste ten, twenty minutes

If your OS defaults to interrupting your work with its update policies, it's doing it wrong. Just because you can delay it doesn't make it acceptable.

I don't get why black soldier fly larvae isn't more common and popular as animal feed. BSF larvae have numerous advantages, including eating their weight in organic matter very quickly, and being a good mix of fat and protein for

I mean, non-sarcastically, lots of people are excited about it, including me. They're a dime a dozen in junkyards. They all have high flowing aluminum heads, and coil per cylinder ignition. The pushrod design keeps the engine compact.

I have the Amazon special i6+ (which is the same as the i7+, but sold by Amazon, similar to Costco's i8+). Also, one of my favorite things about it is hearing the base spinning up like a jet engine to suck all the crap out of it, and h

I assume the rule book specified a maximum fuel tank size, to ensure that teams were making roughly equal pit stops for refueling, etc. Installing a larger fuel tank with the volume taken up by an adjustable air reservoir means the tank sta

We've thought of that too. :) There's OpenBalena for hosting your own device deployment and management server. https://www.balena.io/open/ It's self-hosted, which is a double-edged sword. You have to set

What a strange name and marketing scheme. It's unclear what they're selling, how to get it, or if I would even want it. I increasingly feel out of the loop when it comes to new products and services marketed by large corporations.

The RTX 3060 is supposed to launch with more memory (12 GB vs. 10 GB) than the RTX 3080? How does that make sense? Also, the RTX 3080 launching with less memory than my GTX 1080 Ti made little sense to me. For some niche uses, it's a d

I have a 60-volt electric mower, and it's much quieter than the small engine powered mowers I grew up with. Most of the noise is definitely the engine.

I enjoy keeping fish, and have a 25g freshwater aquarium I built to be compatible with an off the shelf aquaponic grow bed. When everything is balanced, it needs no water changes or cleaning.

Reading this again, you're right, it was a little pedantic. This is one of those topics I feel is just rife with misinformation, so I tend to jump on explanations that don't seem correct at first glance.

ZSTD seems to be relatively revolutionary in the field of compression, at least in most of the test cases I've tried. Binaries typically compress as well as LZMA2, averaging about a 50% compression ratio, with nearly an order of magnit
