4 months agoWell I’m guessing they actually did testing on local AI using a 4GB and 8GB RAM laptop and realized it would be an awful user experience. It’s just too slow.
I wish they rolled it in as an option though.

7·4 months agoWhy didn’t you like Hashicorps Vault? I want to know for my own edification.
1·5 months agoWould be kind of cool to allow people to choose an install method. As someone who has experienced low bandwidth in rural homes, it would be nice to avoid the waste at the cost of possibly managing chromium versions myself.
That’s the point. The storage is a bad metric. While it might indicate poor performance, it’s not a direct indication of poor performance. The bloat and optimization comes from the usage of Electron. And people use Electron because it’s far easier to make cross-platform deployments for Web and desktop using a framework like Electron. Show me the QT/JavaFX app that mimics Signal and we can compare the cost to develop it. Electron isn’t the best choice for memory usage and reducing bloat, but it’s the best choice for quick development (in my opinion but also proven out by the market share it has)
194·7 months agoAnything “salad” where the salad includes tuna, mayo, or egg. I can’t handle it. I don’t know why. Egg salad. Tuna salad. 🤢
I like salad. I like eggs. I like tuna somewhat. I like mayo somewhat. But any of those weird combinations make me sick.
Tell me where is Gandalf for I much desire to speak with him.
That’s insane. Good info though. Thanks for the details! If I ever need a career switch, I’ll consider it lol
What starting jobs does your plant offer right now? Are they hiring? I’m not interested but I am wondering if your experience is colored at all by a different job market.
Did you have any experience prior to 3 years ago?
They’re doing their best! It’s not great, but it’s their best!
- Marvel but it’s waning
- Grand Theft Auto
- South Park

1·9 months agoWhat’s the end goal here? You should be able to use fstab to mount the drive to a particular folder on every boot. That should allow you to access the mounted folder consistently.
Oh that is news to me. I always assumed a partition was all it needed.
Linux Mint is a popular alternative.
But all options can be dual booted as far as I know!
How does resource management work for desktops? Is the computer running all of the processes in the background as though they are just minimized?
EDIT: Tentative solution: CoreCtrl
CoreCtrl allowed me to underclock my Radeon 5600XT GPU (currently set values to GPU 800MHz and memory set to 500MHz). I say “tentative” because this problem has been persistent for years, but I’ve been running Cyberpunk for 1 hour at 60FPS on High settings (and mostly 60FPS on Ultra, but I had some FPS drops). Even if this solution isn’t 100% perfect, I think some combination of changing the GPU values is probably going to make my rig much more functional.
I found CoreCtrl based on a Reddit thread last night but didn’t have time to test it until this evening after work. Seems to have made a world of a difference.
Yeah I’ve tried just about every feasible kernel parameter for
amdgpumodule, updated my kernel, to 6.2 on Linux Mint, and I’ve tried several different BIOS settings. My system runs everything reasonably. Even Cyberpunk 2077 is generally at 60FPS. But after about 5minutes of gaming on Cyberpunk 2077, it crashes. Other games last longer, which is why I use Cyberpunk 2077 to stress test my system.These are my system specs:
- PSU: 850 Watt 80 PLUS Gold Fully Modular ATX
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 2700 Eight-Core Processor × 8
- GPU: Radeon 5600XT
- RAM: G-SKill DDR4-3600 CL16-19-19-39 1.35V (2x16GB = 32GB total system memory)
- SSD: Samsung (MZ-V7E500BW) 970 EVO SSD 500GB - M.2 NVMe
- MOBO: Asus x470 Pro
- Other: TP-Link AC1200 PCIe WiFi Card for PC (Archer T5E) - Bluetooth 4.2, Dual Band Wireless Network Card installed in PCIEx1_3 which seems like it could be a variable I should remove, but I’ve tried removing it and didn’t see any changes in behavior. I’ve tried various PCIEx1_* slots with similar results.
I don’t really see where I might be going wrong here. I bought this all ~4 years ago and I’ve always had these intermittent crashes. It’s admittedly worse on Linux, but it still occurred on Windows.
Anyways, I spent about 5 hours last night reading bug forums, testing various amdgpu mod parameters, settings in my BIOS, and even re-configuring my fans to provide (potentially) more optimal cooling. None of this really made a difference. I run two 1080p monitors (not exactly breaking the bank here). I had a lot of hope regarding one forum about
ring gfx_1.0.0 errorsrelated to how AMD reads the GPU in Linux. My graphics card is detected as:Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Navi 10 [Radeon RX 5600 OEM/5600 XT / 5700/5700 XT]and apparently some machines used to accidentally use the total allocated memory for 5700XT instead of the 5600XT. This resulted in some form of corrupt memory allocation. That sort of behavior would make sense for my system since it runs well, but just fails suddenly.Other errors I’ve seen are:

amdgpumodule settings and/or BIOS settings. The common thread is some form ofring XXXX timeout.These two threads seemed like my best chance, but their proposed solutions didn’t help:
journalctl -S -5m
Looks like this is the errors I’m seeing. I know it’s not helpful to just drop this in the chat, but I’m doing it for posterity (and to let you know your comment did in fact help me)!

Oh I get it now. I need to see if my rig is running Wayland.
People don’t like to admit that we are ants. We are valuable and important. Each one of us is unique and deserves a full, good, life. But we are also ants. We are susceptible to group think, mob behavior, and we tend to follow the scent trail most of the time. It’s not a bad thing. It’s tied to our evolutionary desire to be a part of a community; to fit in and blend in.
But it also means individuals are likely to do what keeps them alive. We are likely all bad in some way or another.
But as long as you aren’t, actively, willfully, or gleefully harming people, you’re probably ok.
