It looks like they are working on fixing that with this pull request.

I just checked myself and it's card1 too, now I am curious why it's not card0. 🤷

I believe it's cat /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_power_profile_mode.

There's also the power_dpm_force_performance_level.

I agree with this. I understand that the majority of users also don't read release notes and some don't even install add-ons, with this being enabled by default this would provide them with a more anonymous ad experience.

As a small homelabber I agree with this. I started with a baremetal and using Docker, and switched to Proxmox, and now over to Incus, actually currently I am using Debian with cockpit + cockpit-machines. I do like Incus, I keep hopping back and forth between cockpit, I need to settle on one.

Yeah, Debian has older firmware found in the firmware-amd-graphics package which doesn't include the firmware. You'll need to download it from https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/ I believe anything from linux-firmware-20231030 and newer should work.

20231030 tag: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/amdgpu?h=20231030 or newest(20240410) tag: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/amdgpu?h=20240410

These files need to be placed in /lib/firmware/amdgpu/

It's a relatively low performance hit and it benefits me when having to replace a failing/old disk. I can just toss the drive without having to erase the data first, that is as long as the key is a secure length.

Quickly skimming the readme, it states:

  • OAuth token spoofing: To circumvent rate limits imposed by Reddit, OAuth token spoofing is used to mimick the most common iOS and Android clients. While spoofing both iOS and Android clients was explored, only the Android client was chosen due to content restrictions when using an anonymous iOS client.
  • Token refreshing: The authentication token is refreshed every 24 hours, emulating the behavior of the official Android app.
  • HTTP header mimicking: Efforts are made to send along as many of the official app's headers as possible to reduce the likelihood of Reddit's crackdown on Redlib's requests.

Quad9 doesn't report it as being blocked. https://quad9.net/result?url=catbox.moe

You can block instances. Go to settings, blocks, in block instance section search for the instance that you want to block.

Yeah, I originally was hoping for a singleplayer mode and realized that it didn't have any way to reset player progress. Ubisoft needs to realize that MMOs aren't meant to have sequals so often and are meant to support them for a long time and instead release expansions, look at Runescape, WoW, and Guild Wars 1 for examples.

 

I have recently become interested in mini PCs, but one thing that is stopping me is a feeling that bit rot could cause me to lose data.

Is bit rot something to worry about when storing data for services such as Git, or Samba. I have another PC right now that is setup with btrfs raid1 and backups locally and to the cloud, however was thinking about downsizing for the benefit of size and power usage.

I know many people use the mini PCs such as ThinkCentres, Optiplex, EliteDesks and others, I am curious if I should be worried about losing data due to bit rot, or is bit rot a really rare occurrence?

Let's say I have backups with a year of retention, wouldn't it be possible that the data becomes corrupt and that it isn't noticed until after a year? for example archived data that I don't look at often but might need in the future.

 

Experience: I have a bit of experience with Linux. I started around 2008, distro-hopped weekly, decided on Debian until around 2011, when I switched to Windows as I started getting interested in gaming. Tried switching back around 2015, this time using Arch Linux for about a month, but had some bad experiences with gaming and switched back to Windows. I have had a Debian and Arch VM in Virtual Box since then for testing different applications and a more coherent environment to work with servers.

Understanding: Which brings me to now, I am really interested in using Linux for gaming, I know there is Proton from Valve and that they have been really pushing Linux gaming forward with it.

Thoughts: I have been contemplating dual booting by installing Debian to an SSD and simply using the UEFI boot menu to choose instead of having to install to the EFI of Windows.

I guess, I should just do it, as it won't affect my Windows installation, and I could test different games and if all works well, move over. This would also allow me to try different distributions, though my heart is for Debian, I even like Debian Unstable.

Note: I am sorry for the wall of text, I am just kind of anxious I guess.
