Not really. If it was power efficient, MAYBE, but it’s not because it’s a super old chip AND a laptop. It’s a vampire device.

You can buy a 6W minipc for like $40 tat6would be more useful.

They aren’t even slow, to be honest. It’s like 2 guys at Valve kicking this stuff out, and if it was standard practice for the manufacturers to divulge the registers and such for their products there would a minimal amount of trial and error and getting things to work well enough to be included directly in the kernel.

Try disabling the power saving settings for the machine, and make sure your power profile is set to ‘performance’. See if that changes anything.

I am certain this is a power issue, but where it’s stemming from us difficult to tell without actually seeing the machine.

Would also be useful if you check your BIOS for voltage settings for your CPU/MEM, and your PCIE lanes.

You sure your PSU can handle this new card AND all your other components?

A good sign it can’t is if this only happens when your card is under a fair amount of utilization.

What in the world are you talking about? You’re not making any sense between comments.

It’s not about their actual effectiveness, it’s about the justification people use to force more “AI” reasons to fire people, reduce pay, eliminate jobs, and so on, and so on…

Literally the first point in this speech, though broad, is making that case. A very small number of people are forcing this shit down people’s throats, and using it to justify the loss of monumental numbers of jobs.

Feel free to look up Amazon’s upcoming waves of layoffs, Salesforce, Google, HP…etc. Amazon alone claims they will be replacing 150k jobs in the US alone in the next year with robots. Again, first point brought up by Bernie.

Mkay. I work in the industry, and everything he said is quite on point.

Unless you want to clarify, it seems you have zero clue as to what you are talking about about.

I’m not aware of any consumer distros that use TPM enrollment for anything out of the box, though the tools may be present.

Have a look at how Clevis works. That will give you an idea of how easy it is to work tish TPM in Linux.

1. You need to enable debug logging for NUT
2. Run systemctl --failed and see if you get anything there
3. Make sure you run the journal back all the way through boot and see if anything during boot time is obvious
4. Post your systems units here

That’s…an opinion that is not backed by any facts at all. What in the world are you talking about with “bloat” 🤣

So you’re a newbie, and making lots of wild claims and taking awfully opinionated positions in this thread all over the place. I don’t think you want help, so just be on your way 👍

This…is not accurate. Not being pedantic, just correcting the misunderstanding so you know the difference.

LTS releases are built to be stable on pinned versions of point release kernel and packages. This ensures that a team can expect to not have to worry about major changes or updates for X years.

Rolling Releases are simply updating new packages to whatever versions become available when released. Pretty much the opposite of an expected stable release for any period of time.

Doesn’t have anything to with “forced reinstall” of anything. If you’ve been having to fully reinstall your OS every time a new LTS is released, you are kind of doing extra unnecessary work.

Well, to be honest, you’re choosing the two most difficult distros to manage.

It sounds like you’re kind of new to the area…why not just use Fedora?

Would be helpful hearing about WHY you want to switch if you’re already happy.

There are certain utilities, but it’s generally not useable.

Also most games where k/m would give you an edge over touch controls run detection and ban accounts anyway.

Yes, but don’t think you’re going to be automatically playing games with a keyboard and mouse if they don’t already support that 🤣

You won’t need a terminal unless you refuse to use the GUI tools that do the same thing.

If you want to use the terminal, go for it and use the default. If you eventually find it lacking THEN start investigating different options.

Just use everything as you normally would otherwise, and you shouldn’t notice a huge shift.

Interesting. I’m assuming an engineer found a specific use-case for a major performance gain that makes this permanent change a benefit for all.

Guessing this is dimensional database or vector related for some “AI” applications because this is a fairly normal tweak for enterprise backend DB machines to implement.

👍

(typing quickly, excuse errors)

Title: The title is both confusing and misleading to the actual topic being discussed, which is CVEs being used to identify vulnerabilities to be exploited. The tool is irrelevant, and the tool in the headline is actually mentioned very little in the content.

Staying on topic: the title sets out a few things as the topics: 1) NPMScan 2) Vulnerabilities 3) Frameworks being exploited.

It then shifts in the first details to middleware exploits, and how routes are mishandled. So a reader might be asking "Wait, is this a post about middleware attacks, or something specific to NPMScan/CVE exploits?

A title or headline should be a simple summarization of the topics discussed, and the content should stick to what those topics are. A more accurate title to this piece would be “How Hackers use CVE information to craft exploits in X, Y and Z”

Diversion from topics: While keeping the meat of an article as close to the main topic thread, it’s important explain the when/where/why you are diverting from that thread for context. When doing so, you’re explaining the relationship between your main topic, and this new information being pertinent and important to the discussion overall.

Just adding a bunch of unrelated information leaves the reader confused about what those ties to the main thread are, and usually will be forgotten or skipped if they came to your content based on the headline and looking for specific information.

An example of this being used horribly all over the place is recipe sites. You go looking for a Holiday Cookie recipe, and are presented with with pages of journal entries about the authors childhood cookie memories. It’s not pertinent to the actual content being requested, and people will skip it.
