…I’m sure you know how search engines work

Somebody must have an exploit for the platform. Guessing it’s Israel because of the messaging from a few weeks ago by various countries’ security concerns.

Honeybees generally stay away from human activity. If you have a lot of flowers in your area, and big open spaces, they’ll just stick to the flowers and away from your house. They’re also unlikely to sting you unless you go to the hive and start messing with it and they don’t recognize you.

Everyone with extra outdoor space to spare, call your local beekeepers and see if they will put a colony on your property. It helps the local plants and wildlife, and they’ll do all the work in maintaining them. They just need volunteers to offer up space.

Also, talk to your local government about reducing the types of pesticides available for non-commercial purposes.

The simple stats and math really puts it in perspective.

Some people won’t read this, but I guess I’m glad it’s out there.

Nice one.

Simplest thing is to drag your fridge over to wherever your equipment may be and leave the door open at all times. 🙃

Seriously though, most consumer gear can handle up to 130F at a minimum. If you’re worried, just point a fan at it.

Not in the way you’re probably thinking, which I assume is like in a Windows-y kind of way.

Finding an exploitable escalation of privileges in Linux is rare, but unpatched machines get hacked all the time, but the world of worms, and such is kind of gone.

The way most end-user machines get compromised these days is by supply chain attacks, undiscovered zero-day exploits, user error, and social engineering. Groups that discover zero-days usually keep it close the vest, and they don’t get found for long periods of time after they’ve been out in the wild.

The way most corporate machines get attacked is social engineering, supply chain, and zero-days. Mostly crypto mining schemes and enterprise-level ransoms for data.

All the Windows botnets you hear about out there are largely unpatched machines exposed to the internet in various stupid ways that groups prey on to take control of.

Edit: Forgot about leaked secrets. Lots of companies get hit from plaintext secrets that get out in the wild via various stupid means.

There’s no set plan or prescription, and no guide. You just pick the smallest set of resources you may have lying around, install what you need on it, then don’t think about it until you need to. That’s it.

Don’t go out and buy a bunch of hardware in anticipation of some big thing you MIGHT want to do. Just use the hardware and tools you actually need to use, then move on until you actually do need hardware for a specific something.

Total bullshit

I believe you’re talking about the challenges discussed here: https://blogs.kde.org/2024/09/04/brightness-controls-for-all-your-displays/

If both monitors are messing with your sensors, you may just want to disable adaptive brightness and manually control it. They don’t seem to have a workaround for it as of yet.

You are wrong

What’s the future of you? Linux probably has better chances 🤣

You won’t find any benchmarks for distributed filesystems, because they don’t apply to any one setup. Nobody knows your network situation, disk speed, availability across clusters…etc.

…it’s in /tmp…

Those are block storage services, not Storage backends. Your options for SCi Provisioned are these: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/storage/storage-classes/#provisioner

I would say if you’re not truly familiar with K8s, or DEEPLY familiar with Ops, don’t fuck with K8s internals. You’re gonna have a bad time.

🙄

Anyway…

The main power draws on a laptop are the display, the GPU, and CPU in that order. If you can’t tame the first two, the third won’t matter if we’re discussing hardware platforms in the past 5 years.

If you can tune one distro to be as power efficient as you like, any of them can do it. There is no functional difference between any of them that is not configurable.

The most power efficient and balanced platform you’re going to get is an AMD APU for general work, or something REALLY weak but efficient like the lowest of low-end Intel like the n-series chips.

Anything with Nvidia in it is going to drain your battery quickly, even if not being utilized (that’s a hardware design thing I won’t go into).

Seems pretty easy to detect and beat though.
