sovietknuckles [they/them]@hexbear.netto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are the requirements to graduate from college cum laude?English2·1 month agoThat’s graduating cum laude in course. To graduate cum laude in thesis, you’d need to complete an honors project, typically during your last year, write and submit an honors thesis to your university’s honors committee, and defend your thesis, where you present and answer questions about it.

optirun
(AMD support is probably not coming soon)You can also use
taskset
to ensure that only your game gets physical CPU cores, and everything else gets efficiency CPU cores

There is no firmware-level Apple telemetry, and booting into Linux disables Find My.
sovietknuckles [they/them]@hexbear.netto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Does installing Linux on a Mac keep Apple from getting your data?English6·2 months agothe asahi mess is limited to M1/2 models
As of the Asahi Linux blog post from 2 days ago, they’re working on SPMI controller support, which is part of M3 support.
I wouldn’t really call Asahi a mess, they upstream their patches to the Linux kernel and are a part of the Fedora project. Also, Linus uses Asahi Linux for his travel laptop, a MacBook Air.
which are like 5 years old at this point.
M2 models were released in June 2022, they aren’t 3 years old yet.
sovietknuckles [they/them]@hexbear.netto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Should you delete accounts after you are done with their purpose?English4·2 months agoI change the email address before deleting. If the deletion requires email confirmation, I’ll change it to a disposable email address. Otherwise, I’ll make up an email address with a nonexistent domain name
sovietknuckles [they/them]@hexbear.netto Android@lemdro.id•Kiwi Browser is archivedEnglish5·5 months agoSounds like Chrome isn’t willing to support extensions on mobile, but Edge is and accepted Arnaud’s Kiwi contributions into their codebase.
It’s just as well, Kiwi Browser wasn’t actively developed beyond its original features, it basically just re-added extension code into the codebase, and each update just fixed git conflicts between that patchset and the latest updates to Chromium’s codebase.
From the article:
It also doesn’t seem like extension support in Microsoft’s browser is as straightforward as Kiwi, requiring you to paste the extension’s ID (e.g. “cnlefmmeadmemmdciolhbnfeacpdfbkd” for Grammarly) into the ‘Extension install by id’ field. By contrast, Kiwi lets you install add-ons directly from the Chrome Web Store or via a downloaded file.
Edge’s extension support is buried behind a bunch of manual steps, most of which the article didn’t mention, and installing each extension is arduous. The only mobile browser left that has full extension support is Firefox.

.pacnew
or.pacsave
files? That can sometimes explain breakage, you should resolve them after every update.sudo find /etc -name '*.pacsave' -o -name '*.pacnew' | sort

Docker introduces latency, but network namespaces do not.

sovietknuckles [they/them]@hexbear.netto Privacy@lemmy.ml•I realized why governments are so fast in approving digital ID cards on smartphonesEnglish3·7 months agoThat means if I used the digital version, they would had unlimited access to all my digital life. Photos, emails, chats, from decades ago.
Do they actually take your phone when you present it to them for digital ID? They don’t scan it and bring up the same information on their scanner?
sovietknuckles [they/them]@hexbear.netto Linux@lemmy.ml•Is this how alphabetical order is supposed to be? Nemo file managerEnglish4·7 months agoWhat you’re looking for is version sort. Here’s how
ls -1v
sorts those files in the terminal, for example:Link Click S01E04.mkv Link Click S01E05.mkv Link Click S01E05.5.mkv Link Click S01E06.mkv
Nemo might be able to support version sort by way of a plugin, but I have not found one. The
nnn
CLI file manager supposedly supports version sort.
I prefer Arch Linux’s use of flatpaks, which is none at all ever
