you could add another layer of swap in between ram and disk by using zram. as it compresses swap in ram with a very fast compressing algorithm it effectively expands the ram size

btop makes the dedicated gpu turn on, wasting energy and disrupting its power saving. yes, this can not be disabled in btop, so it happily shows no load on the gpu. gee, thanks.

Floppinux anyone?

Long time ago I had a 3.5" HD floppy disk Linux with graphical user interface and ethernet and some programs on it. But 64 bit and the increased kernel size probably make this difficult nowadays.

The spy craft in me thinks it could also be a false reading to hide the drones true operational range.

That’s what I would have suspected because most of the videos show the low battery message. But that would necessiate meddling with the firmware or adding something to falsify the voltage readout, which would add extra work, but maybe it would be worth it to conceal the distance to the takeoff location where probably the ground station is nearby.

From Wikipedia:

In a 2021 study published in the journal Plant Signaling & Behavior, Felipe Yamashita and Jacob White claimed that B. trifoliata may employ a primitive form of vision to identify and mimic their hosts. This hypothesis is based upon 1905 and 1907 claims by Gottlieb Haberlandt and Francis Darwin, respectively, that some plants use ‘ocelli’ or lens-like cells to focus light onto other light sensitive cells. In this study, B. trifoliata was observed mimicking the leaf shapes of plastic plants, and researchers refined Haberlandt and Darwin’s ocelli hypothesis, claiming that B. trifoliata may be using convex shaped lenses in epidermal tissue that can detect light and “see” the shapes of nearby leaves.[24] They further proposed that, B. trifoliata processes that information through an unknown means, possibly through neuron-like structures in order to initiate mimicry.[18][23] The study also found that non-mimetic leaves have more free-end veinlets and identified the hormone auxin as a possible mediator in changes to leaf morphology.[24]

This paper received substantial media coverage, was praised by F1000’s Faculty Opinions, and went viral on the social media platform TikTok following its release. František Baluška, a plant biologist and editor-in-chief of Plant Signaling & Behavior, praised this hypothesis, and claimed that root skototropism and photoreceptive cells in algae were analogous mechanisms for “plant sight”. However, the paper’s conclusions have largely been met with skepticism by scientists. Criticisms of the paper include poor methodology, White’s lack of a scientific background, and possible conflicts of interest between Baluška and Yamashita.[18][23] The research was awarded the 2024 Ig Nobel Prize for botany.[25]

But maybe you can explain where all the downvotes come from, because I don’t understand.

Is thievery good? Only when thieving from companies? Is is socially acceptable to take what is not yours from others? Only from companies? Or from a stranger who has more than you? From a friend? What’s this all about?

No, I’m serious in all statements. Corpos will jack prices on any occassion that offers itself, so keep the number of those low.

service is not something the client has to ask for but something the vendor provides. Just like you hold a door open for someone entering behind you, you provide that service, unasked. Having to ask for service is a failure in itself, it’s just “no service”.

“service” is no “special attention” but I get to the conclusion our misunderstanding might be a socio-cultural thing

I don’t know where you live but here theft is a crime and very antisocial and despicable.

Someone has to pay for the thieves and prices rise because they have to compensate for theft. Even if prices in reality do not need to compensate, because margin is already big enough, it gives retail a free card to jack prices, which, in essence, is yet again against consumers.

You mean “rude” in asking for a cashier? Not sure I understand

Being “trebuchet master” without “Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics”… doubt

This says much about respect and social competence in this society when the first instinct is to mock and abuse someone with different priorities than yours.

Stalin alone:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Stalin

Conversely, his totalitarian government has been widely condemned for overseeing mass repressions, ethnic cleansing, executions, and famines which caused the deaths of millions.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excess_mortality_in_the_Soviet_Union_under_Joseph_Stalin

This contained official records of 799,455 executions (1921–1953),[8] around 1.7 million deaths in the Gulag,[9][10] some 390,000[11] deaths during the dekulakization forced resettlement, and up to 400,000 deaths of persons deported during the 1940s,[12] with a total of about 3.3 million officially recorded victims in these categories.[13] According to historian Stephen Wheatcroft, approximately 1 million of these deaths were “purposive” while the rest happened through neglect and irresponsibility.[2] The deaths of at least 5.5 to 6.5 million[14] persons in the Soviet famine of 1932–1933 are sometimes, though not always, included with the victims of the Stalin era.[2][15]

don’t know, tell me with sources, please

How many millions died under Stalin, Mao, Che?

I use Arch btw.

prevent body shaming by only showing obese/disfigured people so society accepts it as a healthy norm

Yeah, the themeing is there. But you can easily uninstall it and other core CachyOS-packages, they’re just packages after all. (I’ve done it)

The other way would be to start with Arch and add CachyOS repositories, that way you can also profit from the v3/v4 packages.

So, how about the Cachy Browser from CachyOS? (aur)

This repository benefits from the knowledge and research provided by arkenfox, their documentation was vital to this revamp, so special thanks to their project. We do not use arkenfox’s user.js but we try to keep up with it, and we also consider it a great resource for users who want to find their own setup. We encourage users to find their own setup and to use our default configuration as something to build on top of. This is now easier thanks to the overrides, just place your own preferences in the proper location: -> ~/.cachy/cachy.overrides.cfg

Differences from LibreWolf:

• Enhanced security & privacy.
• Gentoo patches. Taken from Gentoo’s Firefox.
• uBlock Origin added.
• Moonlight theme added.
• Preset for “Profile Sync Daemon” and Firejail/Firejail(hardened) available.
• Custom Rules for uBlock Origin.
• Custom branding. Notes and thanks Some of the older prefs in this project are taken from pyllyukko and many more were investigated on bugzilla.

Thanks to the whole LibreWolf community.
