Besides other pages alternatives you could try a cheap vps. They start as low as $10/year and any will be plenty for a static site. It’s also fun to play around with hosting other stuff. lowendbox.com has some good listings.

What does it mean to “process shaders in real-time”?

Processing them as they’re loaded, quickly enough that there’s no noticeable frame drop. Usual LLVM based shader compilers aren’t fast enough for that but ACO is specifically written to compile shaders for AMD GPUs and makes this feasible.

Pre-compilation would in theory always yield higher 1% lows yes, but it’s not really worth the time hit anymore especially for games that constantly require a new cache to be built or have really long compilation times.

I think the one additional thing Steam does in that step is transcoding videos so they can be played back with Proton’s codec set but using something like Proton-GE, Proton-cachyos or Proton-EM solves this too.

Disclaimer: I don’t know how the deeply technical stuff of this works so this might not be exact.

If you’re talking about the Steam feature you can safely turn it off, any modern hardware running mesa radv (the default AMD vulkan driver in most distros) should be sufficient to process shaders in real-time thanks to ACO.

Waydroid works really well to run Android apps on mobile Linux, even for games. Doesn’t help for banking apps though as they’ll usually lock you out due to not passing Google safety checks.

Greta woke up one day and chose to be staunchly on the right side of history, apparently an undesirable trait—to those on the wrong one.

I remember never believing my parents when they explained it to me as a kid. Clouds being caused by cigarette smoke was reasonable but the moon pulling out the ocean seemed too outrageous.

I put off docker for a long time for similar reasons but what won me over is docker volumes and how easy they make it to migrate services to another machine without having to deal with all the different config/data paths.

Even if something is finished it’s a risk if no one looks after it since there’s always the possibility of security vulnerabilities, software is rarely truly done.

For Arch, packages are archived online for quite a while, you could still install neofetch via sudo pacman -U https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/n/neofetch/neofetch-7.1.0-2-any.pkg.tar.zst currently.

Installed packages are also left in /var/cache/pacman/pkg until cleaned up manually and can be similarly installed from there. The one thing to look out for is whether the dependencies are still available and compatible since, unlike on Windows, packages don’t usually bundle their dependencies. For a closer experience in that regard there’s .AppImage which is a self-contained package similar to an .exe.

I’ve never travelled out of my timezone and yes it still happens.

Of course my sex is <script>(function(){while(true){alert(":3")}})();</script>.

There are and will always be distros optimized for running on everything. Fedora is a “move fast” distro, it’s hard to move fast with a lot of baggage.

It’s the lack of third places in the US (and increasingly everywhere else). The only place they can unconditionally exist at, outside of their house, is their car.

When you ask a British guy how much he weighs and he starts counting the rocks on the floor.

Much less fake sniffing than fake what they’re sniffing. Surely there has to be a better way, considering actors already fake eat/sip.

How are the numbers tracked?
