I see, we got the the AMD Epyc creators here.

Here you go:

Wait, I am supposed to care about .pacnew files?

Anyway, so far all I found there is new optional dependencies.
I rather wonder what happens when manual intervention is needed, like when JDK started being in conflict with JRE.

I was just looking if something like that exists yesterday, but got disappointed. Nice timing.

Well, Lemmy does have something

Anyway, why do they still ship these bricks? I’ve got a 65W GaN that works just as well, and is the size of a phone adapter. Even has extra type C and type A ports, though the output to extra ones depends on output to main.
And they cost about the same too.

Carrying around a brick with one permanently attached cable and one more IEC cable just to power a basic office laptop feels stupid.

Sorry about my Waypipe misunderstanding.
vncserver I configured that way, so of course. I just didn’t expect it to connect to Wayland.

If invoking xfce4-session works, it means you are doing so over vnc, not waypipe.

It does work over Waypipe. You can even see in my screenshot that on the remote machine it shows Waypipe as the WM.
The remote is running Debian 13, with multi-user.target set as default target to keep the GUI from starting. XFCE version is 4.20.1.

Using Waypipe, which proxies Wayland program GUIs to my local computer, just like ssh -X, but with Wayland, and it actually works over the internet (read: high latency).

I didn’t know XFCE supported Wayland , so I casually ran vncserver, which launched xfce4-session, except that it attached itself to the Wayland display (proxied to my local machine) rather than X display of TigerVNC. And here come the full XFCE right to my local machine (which is running Plasma).

Only if the machine is on LAN. I am running with 250ms here.

No, I was not using VNC. VNC xstartup script just launched xfce4-session which connected to Waypipe rather than Xtigervnc.

It does integrate itself to KDE nicely. Even with virtual desktops. And it even properly does the animations. Downside is, I can’t access the original desktop on my laptop while it’s running. Peek at desktop also shows XFCE.
Here’s the cube switcher, showing XFCE instead:

Probably snaps too.

I am still triple checking when I see /dev/sda as a target drive in such utilities. I use NVMe, so nowadays that’s probably a flash drive for me, but it still gives me adrenaline when I notice it.

I don’t know if it should be a bad thing. Inside the tar archive the configs were already organized into their respective dirctories, this way with --preserve-permissions --overwrite I could just quickly add the desired versions of configs.

Keeps permissions, keeps ownership, puts things where they belong (or copies from where they were), and you end up with a single file that can be stored on whatever filesystem.

Eh, the market will adapt.
I’ve been looking at components on AliExpress. Even now, there’s lots of X99-based motherboards with LGA2011-3 sockets that can take both regular DDR4 (with some limitations) and ECC DDR4.
But the descriptions are quite hard to understand, and they are apparently quite picky about which RAM will work with them.

I could get a combo of one of those motherboards with 2 Intel Xeon E5-2680 V4 CPUs (2.4GHz, 3.3GHz turbo, 28 cores, 56 threads in total) (hey, a dual CPU motherboard) for €120. And it’s got 8 RAM slots. So 32GB just with cheap 4GB sticks.

My last 3 phones are just kind of pain software wise.
Moto G5s Plus - the Android 8 update (latest official) made it a slow horrible mess with frequent crashes and high battery drain. PixelExperience 11 fixed that.
Poco X3 Pro - told not to update to MIUI 13 due to instability. Many bugs I had to learn to work around. Left and right microphones reversed in software. Extreme power saving that doesn’t even spare alarms.
Ulefone Armor 24 - UI often crashes (Quickstep) including navigation. In some cases Android version updates don’t show up. The legend has it they sometimes provide updates after you e-mail them, stored on the Google Drive. Those updates do a factory reset, because of course they do. Alarm also has a chance of being killed, but lower than with MIUI. Charging with fast charger kills USB communication until reboot.

I don’t do updates anymore. Check the experiences online, and it’s all just new bugs, often pretty serious ones. So, if it somewhat works, and it isn’t absolutely clear that the next update would certainly fix something important, just keep it as-is.

TWRP could at least give me some peace of mind. I could just back up everything.

I can imagine it being nice for a tablet. They even have programs for calls and SMS if you have a cellular modem.

Wait what? I still remembered it as a recent console…

I feel like my brain is stuck. When I think of most powerful GPU, my brain’s muscle memory replies with 1080 Ti.
