UTF-32 is completely fair.

Cue “what you are calling Linux is actually” copypasta

I have no experience with this, but did some googling. The AMD ROCm installer instructions for Ubuntu are here. You need ROCm for HIP. That installs the entire SDK not just the runtime.

The Arch Wiki says you just need the package hip-runtime-amd. But I can’t find that package for Ubuntu.

There are also HIP installation instructions for PopOS. That’s similar to Ubuntu.

echo $(($(rdmsr -c 0xc0011029) & (1<<9) )) 

Should return 512. You might need a ‘sudo’ before the rdmsr (any permission errors in any of this means it didn’t work). Unfortunately, this needs to be done every time you reboot. The next security update for linux will do this automatically.

Too bad we can’t short a private company.

It might be cool to have a good news only instance. But they’d have to defederate everyone.

The only difference between prebuilt and DIY is the lack of OS, memory, and storage. The power brick is also an extra $80 for DIY (pretty good deal for a 180W charger). That makes the base prebuilt be +$200 to give you 16GB ram, 512GB ssd, and windows home. That price is good, but if you instead want 32GB and 1TB, the prebuilt price goes way up and you are better off doing DIY. Standard laptop overcharge for upgrades is in effect.

lemmygrad.ml might actually be China. But each instance gives a list of the instances it federates with, so it should be easy for China to block them all. Lemmy has no features specifically for evading state censorship.

Yes, caching. When you ask for a remote community it doesn’t go fetch it right then. In fact, it doesn’t fetch at all. The remote community pushes when there is new data.

You’re right, except I don’t see businesses moving from RHEL to Debian. Businesses are trying to buy support contracts, which Debian doesn’t have. But RedHat is trying to get vendor lock-in so businesses can’t switch to another RHEL compatible platform, even if support is offered. And for sure, RedHat “support” will be pushing solutions that only work on RHEL, not generic Linux.
