I’d go back to college to study apellomancy in a heartbeat.

Is it actually Bulgarian though?

Most people will run a post 2.6 kernel, so prlimit will be available as an interesting alternative to ulimit.

I don’t know what your previous setup was, but given that running resolved fixes your DNS issues, run:

ln -sf ../run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf

This will point programs that use /etc/resolved.conf during DNS resolution to the local DNS server provided by systemd-resolved.

Then, enable resolved so that it is started when you reboot:

systemctl enable systemd-resolved.service

Finally, start the service so that it is available immediately:

systemctl start systemd-resolved.service

You will want it run those with the required permissions, e. g. via sudo.

Don’t worry, we remember.

Have you considered creating a macro in any image editor that supports macros and assigning that to a button / keyboard shortcut?

gimp certainly has macros and scripting features. Maybe this will help: https://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Automate_Editing_in_GIMP/

You can still edit a mask / selection with the regular UI, then trigger the cut/merge process you desire based on that selection.

The parent comment is correct. CODE is the server, you need the “Collabora Online app” for document editing. I’m not aware if there are alternatives to the ownCloud / Nextcloud apps.

This is absolutely not normal.

Just for reference: the nail polish is supposed to create a random, near-impossible to replicate pattern using the metal flakes inside that get randomly distributed during application. You’re supposed to take a picture of the blob after it has dried and keep that at home for comparison - the nail polish is not a miracle replacement for e. g. Loctite that will make it impossible to undo the screws.

What are your requirements? I liked CalenGoo, I can live with aCalendar and BusinessCalendar.

Yeah, no lubricants and the look / style factor - that was my conclusion as well.

As for maintenance, while a belt might last 3 times as long, that’s not really a factor, given the price difference between belts and chains.

Exactly, which is why I was trying to think of any actual reasons I might want a belt, except style.

Are there any other reasons I’d want this apart from the lack of oil and the decreased noise levels, the coolness factor and the tinkering itself?

Every single one is a valid reason in itself of course, but maybe there is more.

I’ll post some links, but it’s a pretty busy week for me already, so give me some time.

An interrupt is an input that can be triggered to interrupt normal execution. It is used for e. g. hardware devices to signal the processor something has happened that requires timely processing, so that real-time behavior can be achieved (for variable definitions of real-time). Interrupts can also be triggered by software, and this explanation is a gross oversimplification, but that information is what is most likely relevant and interesting for your case at this point.

The commands you posted will sort the interrupts and output the one with the highest count (via head -1), thereby determining the interrupt that gets triggered the most. It will then disable that interrupt via the user-space interface to the ACPI interrupts.

One of the goals of ACPI is to provide a kind of general hardware abstraction without knowing the particular details about each and every hardware device. This is facilitated by offering (among other things), general purpose events - GPEs. One of these GPEs is being triggered a lot, and the processing of that interrupt is what causes your CPU spikes.

The changes you made will not persist after a reboot.

Since this is handled by kworker, you could try and investigate further via the workqueue tools: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/tree/master/tools/workqueue

In general, Linux will detect if excessive GPEs are generated (look for the term “GPE storm” in your kernel log) and stop handling the interrupts by switching to polling. If that happens, or if the interrupts are manually disabled, the system might not react to certain events in a timely manner. What that means for each particular case depends on what the interrupts are being responsible for - hard to tell without additional details.

I shudder to think OP’s post was written by an actual person…

But it’s not just information, someone sat in front of their computer and put the work in to design it, then print it and iterate.

You’re paying for that process, and for the time and effort the person took to acquire the necessary skills.

However, there should be a noticeable price difference due to the easy scaling / replicatibility when distributing digital goods.

I’m with you insofar as the final product feels like it should be 3 bucks, not the file.

It is, probably. But I did a check before I posted and it did display content from Lemmy. Just pointing out alternatives here.

I think Fedilab should do both:

That dude is joking of course, but touching someone in a subtle manner can be used to both express and indicate interest.

If all else fails, entangle him with silk and consume him.
