zram is swap on ram, it works by compressing parts of the ram when you run low and it’s much faster than traditional disk-based swap.

Played Half Life 2 for the first time in my life at 25, 10/10 perfect game.

For a lot of marginalized people Twitter was a place to escape to and find like-minded people, I can see how it’s hard to make a new place feel as homely. Most of us here left another site because we didn’t agree with the leadership so it’s a very biased group, “just do the same thing we did”. Not everyone is in as privileged of a position though and it might be way harder for them to leave than you can imagine, especially if they’re addicted to it.

Also you only ever see your face unmirrored in photos, even your phone’s front camera will mirror the picture to not unsettle you.

I’ve looked through the repo and it seems to be used to check for the current OpenRazer version and to get a list of supported devices and download images of them from Razer servers.

When I started hitting OOMs I just downloaded free ram.

(Modifying my zram-generator config to use 1.5x my ram size instead of the measly 4GB – uncompressed – default. Seriously it’s worth looking into, though default depends on your distro)

Whenever this meme pops up again I’m at least somewhat comforted this isn’t the first year like this.

This is so important, especially as we live in an age where tech being churned out that ends up as paperweight is the norm. Being solidified in the Linux kernel we know this thing will live on for decades until in 2080 they will pull the plug on the x86 architecture and you’ll be one of the 3 people still around to remember it

Yes, through a config file change.
