Cake day: January 8th, 2024

  • U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, set to visit China this week, plans to warn Beijing of the harm done by subsidies for clean energy products including solar panels that she says are flooding global markets and pose a threat to U.S. firms, workers and the global economy.

    They r just salty 'cause they can’t get a piece of the cake as always. If they really were preocupied for the transition to solar they would be happy as people is using them even as fences, contributing to help our already strugling electric systems.

    And before someone comes saying “iTs b3cAusE sUbSidiEs bAd”, ok, let’s avoid the tangent and keep it to the current topic; if they r so bad why they keep giving them to Tesla? Especially when said company not only hasn’t generated any profit, tell me, why its ok for teslo to have subsidies but no for chinese EV manufactures? And why go as far to directly ban them?

    And don’t come to tell me that bs about security, it that was the concern they wouldn’t even let apple produce their phones over there.

    Don’t let the suits fool u.










  • First of all, thanks this r news for me. But I don’t think is a good idea to use the swap file in btrfs.

    It is supported since kernel 5.0

    There are some limitations of the implementation in BTRFS and Linux swap subsystem:

    filesystem - must be only single device
    
    filesystem - must have only single data profile
    
    subvolume - cannot be snapshotted if it contains any active swapfiles
    
    swapfile - must be preallocated (i.e. no holes)
    
    swapfile - must be NODATACOW (i.e. also NODATASUM, no compression)
    

    With active swapfiles, the following whole-filesystem operations will skip swapfile extents or may fail:

    balance - block groups with extents of any active swapfiles are skipped and reported, the rest will be processed normally
    
    resize grow - unaffected
    
    resize shrink - works as long as the extents of any active swapfiles are outside of the shrunk range
    
    device add - if the new devices do not interfere with any already active swapfiles this operation will work, though no new swapfile can be activated afterwards
    
    device delete - if the device has been added as above, it can be also deleted
    
    device replace - ditto
    

  • It depends, for a normal user? Ext4, maybe btrfs because in terms of stability is the best {but u lose some functions like the ability to make a swap file, wich today isn’t really that useful, but u lose the ability to make one). Want something really fast fort large files? ZFS, but if u experience an energy loss it could be really catastrophic.

    Ext in general is so good that even to this day android it’s still using EXT2, 2!

    It has been pretty stable, this is the only issue I have got since last year, but yeah I can understand ur reasons.

    Just buy/use AMD and get rid of problems, in pc I’m still using my rx490 and never got any problem since I bought it.

    Same, I’m still using my powerful rx 490 in desktop and not even once has gave me problems.

    I bought this laptop back when I was still using windows, a really good Asus x450LN, wich still allows me to play battlebit, xcom, openxcom, sunless sea/sky, and so on. Not even talkin about office work. So yeah, I’m gonna change it in maybe 2 or 3 years.

    For now ? Dealing with nvidia shenanigans. I have a GUI again wich is good, but steam is fricking dead, so yeah, hopefully I’m not gonna need to reinstall.
