UTF-32 is completely fair.

I completely forgot about info.

I don’t even use swap anymore. 32gb of ram ought to be enough.

The key word to be searching for is “ungrab” mouse. here is a stackexchange on this.. On some systems ctrl-alt-/(on keypad) might work, but that is often disabled for security.

Cue “what you are calling Linux is actually” copypasta

Back when it worked, you just needed to disable the e cores in the bios.

The worst is that if the ‘wheel’ group is empty, it will give a root shell to absolutely anyone.

It’s not like any place on the internet is all that friendly once it grows more than a couple dozen people.

I’m mostly interested in disabling the command to create a root shell ‘machinectl shell @root’. Attempting to ‘systemctl disable systemd-machined’ doesn’t work.

Edit:

After some more poking, it seems polkit is the way to do it. Create the file /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/10-deny-machinectl.rules and add the following

polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
   if (action.id.startsWith("org.freedesktop.machine1.")) {
         return polkit.Result.NO;
   }
});

The list of all actions you can filter on are in /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.machine1.policy

I have no experience with this, but did some googling. The AMD ROCm installer instructions for Ubuntu are here. You need ROCm for HIP. That installs the entire SDK not just the runtime.

The Arch Wiki says you just need the package hip-runtime-amd. But I can’t find that package for Ubuntu.

There are also HIP installation instructions for PopOS. That’s similar to Ubuntu.

echo $(($(rdmsr -c 0xc0011029) & (1<<9) )) 

Should return 512. You might need a ‘sudo’ before the rdmsr (any permission errors in any of this means it didn’t work). Unfortunately, this needs to be done every time you reboot. The next security update for linux will do this automatically.

That’s irrelevant. This proposal only gets bad if enough browsers support it that site owners can tell everybody who doesn’t use it to leave. At that point the open web is dead.

If your instance started showing ads, would you just leave to another instance? Do you see any way to fund the operation of an instance other than donations?

sub might turn into orca only sub

For those of you out of the loop, Reddit admins took it upon themselves to remove a meme about Orca's attacking yachts. source

Not even that...literally a screenshot of an article by The Atlantic saying the orcas are bad for attacking boats and then underneath it a scene from The Office with the caption altered to say "You know what? Now I'm going to root for the orcas even harder." source
