Hilarious

Just install Asahi or Fedora and get your speed back.

M1&2 are pretty much fully implemented in Asahi.

Good thing almost all flavors of Linux run flawlessly on the x86 models.

Is this a bot? These can’t be real responses…

The currently existing infrastructure for standard datacenters with normal capacity for heating and cooling are just fine for basic compute and storage.

All the new outfits builds are being built very specifically for inference compute, which they are only doing because it’s less hassle than retrofitting existing facilities, and they think they can trick/screw taxpayers into footing the bill if new facilities are built.

It’s a scam from top to bottom.

Ban all new datacenters as fast as possible and shut this shit DOWN

No gaming distro outperforms any other distro by any measurable means a user would notice.

5G was mostly about cramming more connections into the spectrum and expanding broadcast range (as well as some other things), but it wasn’t just about node speed on the network.

If you ever need more reasons to avoid Ubuntu…

Or set fire to delicate fabrics, wallpaper, or other potentially flammable surfaces a mosquito might be near or on.

I don’t think it could possibly be measured because it’s something like: (file size ÷ block size) * num_writes

So it entire depends on the types of files, how often you’re utilizing writes to disk…etc. I just wouldn’t worry about it. If you REALLY want to estimate the tax: use iostat to check the number of writes on the drive in the last 24 hours, THEN enable online defrag and check it again in 24 hours. See what the difference is.

It really doesn’t matter for HDD though. Barely probably matters for SSD.

It should be a default, but I can see why it would be disabled for SSDs to prevent using cycles unnecessarily. If you’re using HDDs, check and see if it’s enabled.

Either way, unless you’re REALLY needing some minor performance improvements out of your disks, it shouldn’t make a huge difference.

Oops, you’re right. ZFS doesn’t have that.

There is no “normal” amount of fragmentation on modern filesystems that do things like CoW. That’s kind of the point.

If you’re reading and writing large files with a consistent amount of I/O, you’re going to have a higher amount of fragmentation because of the nature of CoW. This is by design. This doesn’t mean anything is wrong with the filesystem, just that peak performance soon after writing is not achieved. Btrfs and ZFS do online defrag and deferred scheduling of tasks for it to allow for EVENTUAL consistency as far as contiguous block forms go. The more free space you have, the sooner it will become cleaner.

If you’re this lacking in confidence of your skills, you may have other issues to work out…

Heel yaw 👊

No, they don’t. This is another one of THOSE comments.

Any distro will work.

Both KDE and GNOME have super simple key mapping tools to set your Super key combos to whatever you want.

Remmina is probably the best RDP client available for any OS.

I don’t even know where you can get a VPS with that little memory anymore. I think this is just the nature of the kernel progressing and growing in features and size.

Maybe have a look at something like : https://github.com/trisweb/buildkern
