Hmm, good question. I think it is no problem. From an electrical point of view I think it would make sense that the relais power cycles when the plug reboots after an update. But I have not yet seen it do it.

I have the need for power metering only too.

I disabled the switch button on the plug so that they cannot be turned off by mistake. And set it to power on after power outage. Had no problems for a long time with this setup.

I have some Sandy Bridge systems here running strong as Linux desktops for light work. You know, these 4-core 3,3GHz processors from - hmm - 2014?

Honestly I doubt it that Deckard will change that much. First the basics must be fixed. My Index is also laying around collecting dust. Worked okay-ish at first but is mostly unusable at the moment.

I use an AMD 7900rx with an AMD 7950x processor since almost a year with Gnome / Wayland on Arch. No problems up to now. Yes, I am a gamer too.

As others said it depends on the distribution you use.

Sponsored links: Mozilla gets money for AD links showing up below the search url on the new tabs page. If you do not disable them (they are on by default).

glibc is a library, gcc is the compiler.

I use Gnome but Cinnamon and Gnome are not that different in that topic IIRC. I have to mount the remote folder via file manager (Nautilus) then I can access the files in Code.

Let’s call it “soonish”. The old proton versions still need 32 bit libs if they do not backport the feature.

Great article. Reminds me of the time when I started using Linux as my main work system, back with kernel 0.99z

But then they would show the general public that Linux is a thing worth mentioning. I doubt that many people outside IT know about CBL Mariner.

I would start with Ardour and see if it fulfills your needs.

I always run occ upgrade and occ db:add-missing-indices after a package upgrade, just to be sure that I do not miss any database migrations. Using Archlinux I wrote a pacman hook so that it happens automatically.

You could have a look at Kerberos. That’s what Microsoft took as base for AD afaik.

Ubuntu using Snaps might be more of an issue than Gnome 44 vs older version. Not?

I had no problem to install my CA on my Pixel (Android 13). I read that this was not possible for some time but Google changed it.

If you use pipewire instead of pulse audio then you can install pipewire-jack and then use any of the jack patchbay applications to rewire the channels. Currently I use qpwgraph but there are several options.

They say that the arch-installer is a great way to install Arch. In case you give it a try again. It’s bundled with the Arch Iso.

Transfer the app through scp […]

I use an ad-hoc while loop in a shell with inotifywait to wait for changes in the watched directory and then scp it.
