Then if you installed your distro of choice, be sure to install power-profiles-daemon for improved battery life. So the chip goes to a lower power state. More info: https://knowledgebase.frame.work/en_us/optimizing-ubuntu-battery-life-Sye_48Lg3

YES! Big yes. I have one as well. Very pleased with it. Be very sure you pick the new 2.8k display version. So either pick 7640U - 2.8K Display or 7840U - 2.8K Display. Which works great for Linux, WITHOUT the need of fractional scaling.

Also be sure to pick the correct + right amount of expansion cards for your needs. 1 USB-C will be used for charging, so just saying.

If you know and trust this website. And you want to watch the videos on their site, then you most likely want to allow it, in order to actually watch these videos. However, in ALL other cases press Deny and walk away from this site.

Pretty sure YouTube hates uBlock Origin. BUt I will keep using it forever. f* google

Agreed

I hate the world economic forum so badly, there are no words to describe it.

WHAT!?!?!??

I feel you. You do not deserve this! No child deserve this...

ok that makes sense.

Posting from kbin.melroy.org, Mbin developer/creator ;)

You can host your own Mbin instance.

Sorry for asking, but N5 is for woman. Why didn't he go for platinum égoïste or allure homme?

I also have no idea why is down voting me lol. But you are 100% right. Could you imagine in the year 2000 that everything needs to behind Cloudflare in 2025 in order to have a functional internet? This shit is indeed wild.

Sorry to see so many people still down vote me. What is wrong with you? The internet has become a joke. Moving all to cloudflare will only make the problem worse.

Yes but he has no time for this sh*t of course. If you want to reach this kind of levels, you need to play hours and hours per day. And every day of the week. Nobody has time for that.

So Unbound is actually a very powerful validating, recursive and caching DNS resolver. So without relaying on Google DNS or ISP DNS, you can host your own Unbound recursive DNS server, which can do request to other DNS servers and even root-dns servers. You can even setup your own stub zones and forward zones (sorry this is too much details I know). And like I said it also has caching feature. I will soon create a blog post about Unbound as well on my https://blog.melroy.org/ site be sure to subscribe.

Here is a snipped of part of my config, feel free to use it however you want:

    
        # Serve stale data
        serve-expired: yes
        serve-expired-ttl: 86400           # one day, in seconds
        serve-expired-client-timeout: 500  # 500ms

        # Increase caches for better performance
        msg-cache-slabs: 4
        rrset-cache-slabs: 4
        infra-cache-slabs: 4
        key-cache-slabs: 4

        rrset-cache-size: 300m
        msg-cache-size: 150m

        outgoing-range: 200
        num-queries-per-thread: 100

  

Unbound is better IMO :)

Fully agreed, sorry to see people down voting you. But the Internet was not meant to be run by a single company called Cloudflare, it's a dangerous prospective. Since the more people depend on Cloudflare the more powerful it become and the more depend people will become. We need alternative solutions to protect against DoS and more.

Another reason to not use Cloudflare. Not that long ago they also "lost the log records" (this incident happened on November 14, 2024). I strongly believe the internet can become better without Cloudflare, especially now basically the whole world is depending on it.

This was a "bug". According to Meta.
