I hope this keyboxd isn't going to compound the stupidity of GNOME's keyring daemon that offers up the contents of your keyring without restriction to...

That is true except where avoiding SPOF. Reliability engineering has different best practices than performance engineering....

Here's an updated URL for static ffpmeg builds with recent libaom-av1 library: Updated URL...

[linuxgeex]

That might be true if M$ had a decent track record when it comes to security lol. So now they've moved to a platform which is a much fatter, juicier target,...

[linuxgeex]

It becomes an easy physical denial of service vector, not all firmwares are super reliable with detecting USB storage, and many thumb drives have unpredictable...

phoronix what exactly about post #8 is leading to it being flagged as potential spam? All I did was talk about OS boot volume filesystem choice. No...

[linuxgeex]

You can RAID your boot volume and/or you can set up the UEFI to fall back to a secondary/tertiary boot volume in case of failure of the primary/seconary....

Since Michael didn't bother to spell out the acronym for the readers, SBAT is Secure Boot Advanced Targeting which is a methodology for requiring not...

Really wish that there was standardisation around use of the compose key for the generation of emoji.

Yeah that's what I meant by "...that copy is in a very weak sense directing (by example) the machinery in the replication process." It has...

libaom-av1 is faster and higher quality than svt_av1 for preset 4, and has been for a while.

The libaom that ships with debian/ubuntu is...

[linuxgeex]

That's another example of a misuse of "master". Really what they mean is "prime", as in first-generation. Except where it refers to...

[linuxgeex]

Personally I always thought "master" was a stupid name for the main branch. I thought "trunk" or "main" or "work"...

[linuxgeex]

Your ad hominem at the channel is disheartening at best, hypocritical in fact, because you've decided without consideration, which is the definition of...

[linuxgeex]

That's part of what I'm saying. But actually the engine is a relatively small part of the overhead. The real overhead is the result of using the dynamic...

TY I will give Budgie a try to see how its multi-monitor works out.

I heard you, it's basically how I felt about Xfce... its one big flaw...

I still feel the best thing that happened to the Linux Desktop was KDE 3.10. It was a very stable and seamless experience, relatively lightweight still,...

Linus would accept it even knowing that Rust was absolutely going to be dead in 5 years. Why? Because code is documentation. A working Rust driver...
