I have seen some cool looking slop projects recently. Yesterday I saw a “run macOS apps on iPad” project and a while back I saw a imessage bridge for windows and linux that just connects to iPhone. Not that I want to use them or trust them. I am amazed that any company would want to use this to write software. Really muddies the “trade secrets” issue with their products.

Honestly getting something like this, but as an actual source code conversion would be a great idea for Apple to do to get more games on their platform. They have a terrible “Hey devs please port more games to macOS, we will sell them for you” approach without the here we will help you do it.

No, parents don’t parent anywhere anymore. It is the government’s job now.

If you have 0B’s total enabled, not to be confused with used, then I’d recommend either enabling zswap or zram. zram compresses only ram and zswap compresses ram and then moves it to the drive as needed. Enabling one will improve your experience in general as currently your system just will try to shove everything in ram until it is full and need hard reset.

See [https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Swap#Swap_file](Arch Wiki Swap) and [https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Zswap](Arch Wiki zSwap)

It will still be faster than hitting the drives, whether that is a hard drive or nvme ssd. The compression code is highly optimized.

What “background services” breaks down to is things like the desktop. In the system monitor you can see a breakdown of what that is if you click on “show details sidebar” in top right. On my system for instance, plasmashell and kwin combined(the interface) is taking 700mb. Without the info from the sidebar it is harder to give advice.

Baloo is used for searching you system for files including contents. You can disable it if it isn’t something you’d use, limit it to certain directories or limit it to file names only. It will be under search in settings.

Edit: Also check how much swap you have enabled in the system monitor overview. You might look into turning on zram support if it isn’t already enabled which will compress ram as needed which might improve your experience.

for me Jonah is an alias for “John Baron” which is an alias for someone the world would be better off without.

Isn’t that the basic business model of any social media corporation ?

They aren’t proud if they are wearing masks. Are even really boys either? Is it all a facade? …

I have seen many posts over the last couple of years about google getting worse and I haven’t notice that. I do have an ad blocker that blocks ads, most ai and I skip past that faq list by habit. So maybe that is why I haven’t notice as I am not looking at those false paid-for results.

The drives should work fine, for standard blurays and self wrote disks. There are a mature cli utilities and often the gui version is just a frontend for the cli tools. It is just an optical drive otherwise.

Check out makemkv, which has a cli option, and their forum for compatibility for 4K blurays. Newer bluray drives have additional protection for 4K if I understood correctly.

Way to expensive for most. Meta has their devices under $1000 compare to $3500. Out of touch with rest of the market. Valve’s Steam Frame probably would be around/less than $1000.

Yeah and you’d think GNU would like the recognition too.

I’d rather have a little demon than a simp

Couldn’t they just call it IMP(Image Manipulation Program)?

I have heard it used that way in the last decade I think

To be confused that requires them to try to think about it outside of them watching porn

Honestly, I’ve been to parts of the US where it was more noticeable when I saw a black person. Some summers I’d only see 2 or 3 people there. Kind of creepy honestly. I’d see more people of asian decent there.
