I always look forward to the overclocking bump I get in the winter :) It's a bit odd having a seasonal clock speed though .

I believe it does have to do with 3rd party licensing. Last time I checked the freesync portion of the driver was only in AMDGPU-Pro, which is what I'm looking forward to the most.

I got a Fury to try to show support during the initial releases of AMDGPU. I'm not sure if they noticed but it gave me a good reason to ditch my gtx 770 :D AMDGPU is really good now, and the parts that are proprietary (AMDGPU Pro) are

I believe this is a result of wayland. The window manager now includes what you think of as compositing in the world of X11. The compositor just also happens to do the window placement. I think. I do not yet understand wayland, so if someon

I've always wanted to try my hand at making a window manager(or what is now called a compositor I think), so I may use wlroots as my base when it's done(or at least more done). The article confused me a bit, is the goal to have wl

I found layout saving cumbersome in i3, mostly because of the manual editing you would sometimes have to do to the JSON file[1]. I have used it a few times, and didn't run into many of the common problems, but there have been many layo

As an i3 user who harbors a non-zero amount of hatred for X11 it's exciting to see sway has (nearly!) reached 1.0! I had the checklist for feature parity with i3 bookmarked so I could check in on it but I've forgotten to look at i

That is a solid question. The optimist in me says 'well if the private key is leaked we're in about the same spot we are now with SSNs'. Every other part of me just cries. In regards to "which version do we trust if a ne

I see talk in this thread that uses the term 'private key'. Which makes me think about using a literal cryptographic private / public key combo for this sort of thing. Say I have a private key, and I want a business to have a

I got a good laugh out of that, thanks. I hope that you can't actually overload whitespace... I need to go try this. edit: you cannot, I am equally disappointed and relieved.

It blows my mind that this is what the company ended up using... Why? Normally the price is the factor that chooses what part is used in a system. Surely it would be cheaper to use literally any regular screen than to retrofit a Gameboy SP

Which is partly due to their actual problem solving strategy. Instead of fix the problem with X 3.4, they bought the company that makes Y so they could use that solution. But Y has it's own problems of course. And even if it didn'

Holy crap you're right. How'd you think to open it in libreoffice? I used file on it, and all it said was 'data'. Sure enough as soon as I changed it to .odt it opened up fine.
