No advantage over Arch IMO.

If you want to play with it, setup a VM.

More fool you. There’s some damn good software in that list.

• It’s amazingly stable even though it’s a rolling release.
• Up to date.
• Maintained by many many knowledgeable people.
• Arch Wiki
• 99% of software you need is packaged, and then there’s AUR too.

That’s about it, but its my daily driver on desktop and laptop.

I’m a little confused by some of the discussion. Surely the problems they’re talking about with variations in the test system also apply to windows. You result can be affected by:

• Which windows updates have been applied
• Which version of the drivers have been installed
• What other software is on the system

Linux is the same, but they seem to be more concerned about it. Can someone explain?

They’re Saxon

How steep is the learning curve there? Should I just go with Plex and keep it simple?

You’ve got it the wrong way round. Jellyfin is simple. I’ve never understood Plex.

They do. You look at it every time you see the contents of your disk. It’s just organised in a tree to make path based lookups fast and locate organises its database differently to make fast basename lookups.

I’ve got a 12. I really like it.

Get a DIY one and put your own memory and SSD in it. You’ll save £$\€ over the framework prices for those. I paid about £750 total for my maxed out 48GB/2TB one. Then slap something like Fedora on it and you’re good to go.

I got a Lenovo slim pen 2 as the framework stylus isn’t out yet. Pairing required holding the buttons for ages, but works great after that.

As does Arch.

The avalanche has started. It is too late for the pebbles to vote.

I’m quite impressed Arch comes out on top

The Linux Unplugged podcast did something similar to an old Arch based server. Only one year out of date, but they had a similar experience.

Your problem isn’t Arch. It’s the fact that the Weyland experience is still under development and so not stable release to release.

This will be true on any distro.

If your solution is to freeze your distro in a certain point in time, don’t type pacman anymore.

Depends on two things

1. What performance counters your CPU has.
2. What you consider to be a memory load.

Tools like perf on Linux can get you access to your processors performance counters and you’ll be able to see how many “events” occur while a process is running.

What’s an event? Well they can be configured to monitor all sorts of things in the CPU. Instructions executed, Interrupts, page table misses, and on some loads / stores.

Memory systems on a CPU aren’t straightforward though. They contain multiple levels of cache, each of which reduces the number of accesses which go to the next layer. So depending on which level you measure, you’ll get different numbers.

So more like a charity status?

I agree with what you’re saying, that the attack didn’t require any data breach to take place, but I do have one slightly pedantic point.

Codeberg being non-profit does not make the employees “volunteers”. They are normal employees and take a wage like working for any other company. What’s different is that any excess revenue over costs must be used to continue the company’s objectives and is not able to be taken by the company owners as profit.

Or emacs

Network transparency

I knew as I wrote it that somebody would come along and say “Wine/Proton is not an emulator” but I didn’t want to get into the detail.
