  • That's not really the case. Have a look at AUR or GURU repo - most proprietary software is installed by simply applying the same steps an apt, dnf, whathaveyou package manager would.

  • Network? That's a small bit. DB is struggling with IO at times, but network usage is fairly low, at least on my end.

  • It was meant as a tongue in cheek, not a dig at you :)

  • Any explanation for the mathematically challenged?

  • I think you missing just a few zeroes there.

  • Someone has to do the maths on the best possible nutrient, water and solar energy ratios required by pumpkins. Maybe pumpkins win!

  • I think you're missing the point of what I'm saying. Unfortunately, words are difficult enough to produce for me, I don't have a better way to express it.

  • Only answering your last paragraph. You will not, ever, find a 1:1 equivalent for a few reasons, but mostly because:

    • Windows quircks do not have to be accomodated in Linux distros
    • Microsoft has very much encouraged massive software where everything is done in a single application, whereas in UNIX world the philosophy is to do one thing and do it well.
    • Not sure how DFS works, but with the myriad of networked filesystems available I'm sure there's an exact requirement match.

    Users can be centrally managed in a myriad of ways, but the most used software seems to be following the same X.500 standard - OpenLDAP, FreeIPA, etc.

    Machines can be centrally managed via Puppet, Chef, etc.

    Company software is managed by having your own repo.

    SELinux can be used for incredibly granular access controls, but I can't see most companies actually needing that.


    To sum it up - you'll always have trouble if you're solving a windows problem in linux and vice versa. Just for a moment, try imagining a situation where you want to switch a 100% linux company to windows.

  • Gentoo/Arch guy checking in. It's more about having fewer codepaths to go wrong after some update. At least in my case.

  • I'm no dev, but would you consider writing up in detail the features/behaviour you're missing on libreoffice issue tracker?

  • A couple things - every jump like that in resolution is about a 10% increase in size at the source level. So 2K is ~250GB, 4K is ~275GB. Haven't had to deal with 8K myself, yet, but it would be at ~300GB. And then you compress all that for placea like netflix and the size goes down drastically. Add to that codec improvements over time (like x264 -> x265) and you might actually end up with an identical size compressed while carrying 4x more pixels.

    HDMI is digital. It doesn't start failing because of increased bandwidth; there's nothing consumable. It either works or it doesn't.

  • Lemmy UI shows you all the other posts it's aware of once you paste the title; or apply a suggested title after pasting the link.

  • The crawler probably went down and did not record anything

  • Regarding link saturation - have you tried tc/wondershaper? https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/28198/how-to-limit-network-bandwidth#28203

    Iptables commands - that was needed at the very launch of wg, I've not had to deal with it for some time now.

    Personal/commercial use - I'm on a completely opposite side. It's perfect for personal use, but its lack of dhcp support makes me question its capability in a commercial setting. Many providers offer it, so clearly that's not an insurmountable task, but I'm still curious how they sort out their backend.

  • I'd hazard a gueas it's not touching a system drive, but rather saving all files as a regular user.

  • My bad. You said it was Rupert who was in his 30s during WW I and I thought that's what you meant.

  • Your maths does not check out.

  • Possible? Yes. Probable? No. LTE would work wonderfully for such usecase, but the firmware to it is never shared. Wifi would work theoretically, but the distance would get in a way. Bandwidth would go down all the way to a rounding error.
