Is there a link to an official announcement please, not to some suspicious site hosted in Muscovy? Thank you.

In case you are an Arch user, eza is already there.

I'd appreciate if it'd possible to select Czech Republic and Ukraine as regions for search.

Re:An EEVDF CPU Scheduler for Linux on Saturday March 25, 2023 @05:56PM (#35307856)
Setting the nice level is not enough. Instead, `SCHED_IDLE` policy should be applied to the workload that is being run in the background.

[1] may help if you run such a workload from CLI.

For sure you can, and also you really should if you are able to. If you are going to use the server by yourself only, you may also consider going with something easier on resources like GoToSocial instead of the fully-fledged Mastodon server.

This is why I like HN. You open a discussion, you see other related projects that may be of your interest. Isn't it neat?

Well, so far I haven't heard any beeps.

It does allow reading data via USB.

I've bought [1] and coupled it with Zabbix using [2].

Now I have a pretty realtime graph and a strong reasoning to air my room more often.

For the niceness part, I wrote a small helper [1] quite some time ago, and it really is handy in some situations.

Re:AV1 Video Codec on Tuesday May 10, 2022 @02:25AM (#31324088)
Except those based on Navi 24 (6400/6500) IIRC.
Re:AV1 Video Codec on Tuesday May 10, 2022 @02:22AM (#31324067)
We should rather compare AV1 to VVC aka H.266.
Re:AV1 Video Codec on Monday May 09, 2022 @06:15PM (#31320540)
svt-av1 is pretty fast. Well, depending on crf/preset etc of course, but in general, the more cores you have, the easier it is to get realtime encoding with decent quality. You may want to try ab-av1 first, and then go and play with ffmpeg manually if the result does not satisfy your needs.

For other encoders that do not do parallel encoding that well there are things like av1an.

Is it possible to convert a repo in place?
This was my question: what's the benefit of using `q` over `doggo`? Both are in Go, both seem to give nice colourful results. I'd appreciate having some comparison.
Nice, given `dog` seems to be stalled.

Why `q` over `doggo` btw?

I use this:

01:00.0 Unclassified device [0002]: MEDIATEK Corp. MT7915E 802.11ax PCI Express Wireless Network Adapter

Bought from here: [1]

Works with no hassle as AP under stock Linux kernel.
