Microsoft has 18 months to convince folks to upgrade.
They’ll be lucky if I boot my Windows 10 partition between now and 18 months.

Yeah I remember those early days. KDE had a 1.0 version out in the late 90s, which was perfectly usable as a standalone desktop environment, while at the same time Gnome was little more than a panel with a foot. Early Gnome was an unholy mess and remained so until the late 2.x versions in the mid 2000s. Like how many window managers and file managers did they go through? I believe they even had Enlightenment as the default window manager for a while, and then there was that weird Ximian desktop phase.
On my QK80 mechanical keyboard I could do this:
echo 2 > /sys/module/hid_apple/parameters/fnmode
Maybe your keyboard driver has a similar parameter?
Girl = neutral (das Mädchen)
No idea why lol.
Mädchen is a diminutive, and all diminutives are grammatically neutral.
It’s the same in Dutch btw, and my girlfriend who is learning Dutch is frequently abusing this as a cheat code: whenever she doesn’t know the gender of a word, she’ll just use the diminutive and it will automatically be neutral.
See my edit.
I don’t think that’s the case anymore.
I just checked, the time in the UEFI BIOS is in UTC, yet both Linux and Windows 10 display the local time correctly as an offset to UTC. I didn’t have to do anything special for that.
Edit:
So I looked a bit deeper into it, and this is apparently controlled by a registry key called RealTimeIsUniversal
in [
. You can paste the text below in a .reg file and then import it to set the parameter: ]
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation]
"RealTimeIsUniversal"=dword:00000001
I confirmed that this setting exists on my system, but I have no memory of ever manually setting this parameter. It’s documented in the Arch wiki though, so it’s possible that I did set it and forgot about it.
In any case, if you do a fresh Windows install and your time differs between Linux and Windows , this is what you should check.

Because Mandrake was a Red Hat fork
Should probably also mention that his wife, Telsa Gwynne, was diagnosed with cancer around the time he retired and she sadly passed away in 2015.

What’s a good usecase for TPM in Linux?
Deleting your efi partition doesn’t brick your board. It just makes your disk unbootable, but you can always install another operating system and create a new efi partition.
I think you’re confusing with the special efivarfs
file system that is mounted under /sys/firmware/efi/efivars
. If you delete stuff under there, you’re apparently going to have a bad time, because it directly deletes variables in your UEFI firmware which can prevent your system to POST.
You can use the wildcard domain
Yeah the problem was more that this machine is running on a network where I don’t really control the DNS. That is to say, there’s a shitty ISP router with DHCP and automatic dynamic DNS baked in, but no way to add additional manual entries for vhosts.
I thought about screwing with the /etc/hosts
file to get around it but what I ended up doing instead is installing a pihole docker for DNS (something I had been contemplating anyway), pointing it to the router’s DNS, so every local DNS name still resolves, and then added manual entries for the vhosts.
Another issue I didn’t really want to deal with was regenerating the TLS certificate for the nginx server to make it valid for every vhost, but I just bit through that bullet.
Probably not. There are no implementations that I’m aware of that work well on a Linux guest.
Ok, so you don’t know what FUD means.
You can disagree with the comment above, but it’s not “FUD”, it’s just criticism.
That’s just a meme. If you can follow some basic instructions, you can setup arch.
Yeah, I evaluated both when I chose this solution several years ago. Don’t ask me why I chose one over the other though, I don’t remember.
Desktop usage is almost always going to feel laggy in a VM because you don’t have a real GPU inside the VM and it will fallback to some non-accelerated framebuffer mode. There are some GPU virtualization solutions, for example QEMU has virgl
that offers 3D acceleration, but in my experience it’s buggy/not ready and doesn’t offer near bare metal performance.
The only way to get near bare metal graphical performance in a VM is by using PCI pass through of an entire GPU, but that requires an extra GPU, is non-trivial to setup and comes with a lot of caveats.
