The memory layout for windows is going to be different than it is under linux. A bad module could still be causing chaos but it might only really be affecting the RDP server rather than firefox.

For CPU, can depend on how you are configured. If you haven’t gone through the work of getting your power usage settings under control, linux likes to run the CPU clock frequency at 100% all the time rather than letting it ramp down. The two OSes also ultimately have different scheduling schemes which could be causing linux to put more pressure on various cores than what windows does.

Same hardware or different hardware? This sounds like a hardware issue.

An app getting stuck like that is indicative of GPU/memory problems. Possibly the CPU overheating.

Memtest would be in order to see if your memory is bad.

As a younger teen trying to get starcraft running on my linux box, my parents were definitely upset when they saw me browsing “winehq”. They thought I was trying to get booze shipped to our house :D

I threw linux on an old laptop. Lemme tell you, the thing really just flies now. Under windows the fan was constantly kicking on because of all the bloat and extra garbage running. Now, the fan only kicks on when I kick the laptop into high performance mode (keeping the clock speed maxed out).

The boot speed is also insane. There’s like a 2 second boot delay from off.

It’s great to know I now have a laptop that will be supported for the next 40 years. Everything works perfectly.

All containers are, are isolated preccesses so its barely different than launching any other process.

The two biggest differences are that containers use more disk space vs non-containers and that containers won’t use shared libraries. That means that instead of loading up 1 version of glibc for most of the OS, you end up with n containers glibcs loaded up.

Practically speaking, this isn’t really a huge deal. A lot of those libraries fit in less than 1mb. A disaster if this was my childhood computer. A non-issue on modern systems with more than 512mb of ram.

What can I say, I’m a performance nerd.

That’s a platform dependent change. Overflow is undefined behavior. I’d rather have my code portable so it can run on my Univac 1101.

Fixed

boolean isOdd(int num) {
  if(num == 1)
    return true;
  if(num > 0)
    return isEven(num - 1);
  else
    return isEven(num + 1);
}

boolean isEven(int num) {
  if(num > 0)
    return isOdd(num - 1);
  else
    return isOdd(num + 1);
}

We’ve been importing beef primarily from Brazil to make up the shortfall. Guess what country got a 50% tariff that has stuck?

Andor is a documentary about radicalization, resistance movements, and fascism set in the Star wars universe. It is VERY true to life and based on real revolutions.

It did an excellent job showcasing real politics and social dynamics. Tons of characters and they all had depth.

The first season is very good, the second season is, IMO, some of the best political drama ever produced. It’s also highly entertaining.

If you’re lucky you’ll be deported back to your own country.

I don’t blame a single person for not wanting to tour the US ATM.

No. It’s obviously the space telescopes.

Yeah, the problem (imo) isn’t lossy v lossless. It’s that the supported codecs are part of the Bluetooth standard and they were developed in like the 90s.

There are far better codecs out there and we can’t use them without incompatible extensions on Bluetooth.

Wysiwygs were all the rage in the late 90s early 00s with a promise that the hard part of development was actually just doing the layout.

Tools like frontpage have been tricking incredulous entrepreneurs that programming is easy since at least then.

Layers, layers everywhere

It’s actually nuts. Visiting /r/conservative and while there are some boot lickers by and large they are in agreement that “fuck that guy”.

It’s wild.

LMAO. It’s hilarious to me how basically nobody is mourning the death of this dude. Hopefully it is making other insurance leadership start to rethink their careers.

Every single cop in Blobsky’s department is suspect. I find it highly unlikely that he spent decades raping people and planting evidence without his fellow pigs knowing about at least some of it.

Anything more solid than vegetable oil.

Oh no! You mean the city will have to employ more janitors?!? The horror!!
