lime!

the driver is called AMDGPU PRO. it sits on top of the normal driver, and contains stuff specific to high performance compute and workstation workloads. i think it’s a requirement for properly fast ROCm but i’m not sure.

it’s from an 1800 year old Indian fable about a bear who crushes his friend’s skull with a rock in an attempt to kill an annoying fly.

many european languages seem to have the expression.

depends on whether matt mullenweg knows you exist

also i’ve only just realized why he named the company auto-matt-ic oh my god

aren’t those some of the reddest parts?

idk, i rewatched kick-ass last week and it just feels gratuitous.

yupyup, just send HTML over the wire. it’s fine.

the biggest speedup would probably come from using proper schemas that can be efficiently parsed. but we’ve made our bed out of ad-hoc protocols.

it would be more of a double standard if the two groups were on equal footing, but they’re not.

eos is as close to vanilla arch as you can get while still being plug-and-play, basically. they have a remote for all their own stuff and if you remove that from pacman, you’re running normal arch. the main thing that’s different is they ship with common-sense configs and a graphical installer. no manjaro-like “kernel update service”.

it’s honestly perfectly stable. if you’re worried about things breaking when the kernel updates, run a LTS kernel.

anything that deserializes arbitrary json will put it into a hash table, right? it would definitely speed up the web.

telling people how much money i make. i want everyone at my job to be aware of any inconsistent salary payments so they can use it to ask for adjustments.

I thought Jesus was the cross religion

i think that’s basically us only.

the UK power grid is weird. mostly due to echoes of the war. used to be that, to save copper, the entire house and sometimes multiple houses on a street would be wired as one big loop of wire, no fuse box or anything. that’s where the individually fused plugs and switched sockets come from. then, since it turned out to be quite a good idea for safety, they kept doing it.
