Alright, you know what? I'll be switching. (kbin.social) en

Hello there. I'm a beginner so keep that in mind. I have an old laptop (something like 10 yo). It has an HDD, 4 gigs of DDR3, an i3 4th gen 1.7 GHz and an NVidia Geforce 710M (Windows Game Ready Driver 391.35 WHQL which I think doesn't support Wayland). It also has CSM BIOS so yeah. It has the option of UEFI but the GeForce (I...

KDE in 8GB RAM won’t leave you much room for applications. If you can’t get more memory, I suggest trying a lighter desktop environment, or maybe using ZRAM or ZSWAP.

ono,

Akonadi is a pig. Nearly 20 processes, each one using 20-150MB resident set (20-40MB unique set), multiplied by the number of users logged in. And then there’s the other stuff it keeps resident, like mysqld.

That might be okay if I was getting something important from it, but I’m not. It provides zero value to me. It’s just wasting RAM that I would rather use for other things.

Unfortunately, it’s part of the Plasma dependency chain on my distro, so removing it would be problematic. When I find the time, I may build a custom metapackage to allow me to get rid of it without taking most of KDE with it.

On old.reddit, ads were being inserted as regular posts when I last visited. It’s like they’re trying to drive people away.

I use uBlock Origin, but I guess it’s possible that it malfunctioned that day.

HP BIOS Management/Configuration Driver Coming For Linux 6.6 (phoronix.com) en

I would love to see more hardware makers expose BIOS settings through the OS, either by developing the necessary open-source drivers themselves or by publishing the specs so the community can do it. The current situation of having to reboot into the UEFI setup makes it impossible to tune those settings for real workloads.

ono,

Debian Stable + Backports, with a few customized flatpaks. I don’t care that my desktop apps are not bleeding edge. My system always works, and games run great.

ono,

Ah! Yes, it’s hidden if I open the menu with the mouse, too.

A menu option that’s shown only if the menu is opened in a certain way. How confusing.

ono,

Close.

Each of Reddit’s listings (top submissions, recent comments, etc.) is generated from a database index. Those indexes are limited to 1000 entries, by dropping older ones as new ones arrive, and they don’t re-index for deletions.

That means that once a listing goes over 1000 items, the oldest items can no longer be found through it. The messages are still in the database somewhere, but can only be reached from some other index (different sorting order) or a search or a direct link.

So, the messages are not being deleted and then restored; they’re not being deleted in the first place, because the tools have no way to find them.

This is why a formal data deletion request is often more effective than a deletion tool on Reddit.

ono,

I’m glad there are two useful server implementations already. I hope to see more in the future.

ono,

Yes, that’s pretty common. Reddit URLs contain post titles as well, but they can be deleted without breaking navigation. I expect they’re added just for the convenience of human readers.

Can anyone explain to me what a Microblog is and how is it different from a thread? Are they similar to what a Toot is on Mastodon?

ono,

Microblogging is tweeting, or tooting, or similar. Very short messages, usually from one person and directed to whomever happens to notice them.

A thread is a collection of comments from people replying to one another, usually organized in a tree structure. It’s more like a conversation.
