What does “Single, Double or Triple Buffering” mean?

ehopperdietzel,

The idea of single, double, and triple buffering revolves around how many framebuffers we use for display rendering. Typically, we go with double buffering, displaying one framebuffer while rendering happens on the other. Swap them, and the cycle continues. The goal is to prevent screen tearing and glitches from popping up on the screen.

kungen, in How to exclude SSH port from VPN so you can remote access while VPN is up

If you’re looking for more improvements, I’d recommend using a non-default SSH port and to include the destination IP in the rules.

luthis, (edited )

Ahead of you with the non-default port, I just didn’t use it in the example.

But for the destination IP, I won’t always be connecting remotely from the same one. Or am I misunderstanding what you mean?

kungen,

Aha, I think I misunderstood your situation then? I assumed you’re running these routing rules on your client machine, so you’re able to access your ssh server without it going over the VPN – not that your server is running a VPN active that blocks external connections…?

But if I didn’t misunderstand, I’d mean the (assumingly static) ssh server’s IP.

luthis,

No it’s the second one; server (home pc) is running ProtonVPN and there is a default route that makes all (ie ssh replies) traffic go through the VPN.

I added some clarification, but basically this sets up a port-based default route to the home router instead of the VPN, so that SSH etc works.

My daily driver is Sway on Arch. I’ll help shout out the glory of this setup.

Nawor3565, (edited ) in Linux support for wifi in LiveUSB trials with onboard wifi chip and/or additional USB wifi dongle

I would look for a dongle that specifically markets itself as being Raspberry Pi compatible. Most stuff you find will prioritize Windows, but if it’s marketed to work with the Pi you know it’ll have at least some level of Linux compatibility. Once you find one, try to figure out what chipset it uses, then search if it’s supported by a handful of the distros you wanna try.

That must suck, I hope you get your answer man.

dynamo,

I think i’ll take the opportunity and try Debian, maybe PoPOs

jake_jake_jake_, in Linux support for wifi in LiveUSB trials with onboard wifi chip and/or additional USB wifi dongle

hardwire for testing? then when settled do the full install. maybe use a different laptop.

Suddenly i feel nostalgic for xbiff. No longer useful but he was a good dog.

tubbadu, in Customising keyboard layouts Fedora KDE Wayland

In system settings under 'keyboard" there should be an “advanced” tab or something similar with a lot of these kind of settings, don’t remember if this specifically is present or not. In case yours is not there you can change the mapping of the keys in a root configuration file that I don’t remember, if you need tell me and it I’ll go looking for it

You should upgrade to Windows

dynamo,

*downgrade

kariboka,

Beehaw of course

iamak, in Help. Various games stopped working and i have no idea how to diagnose the issues

I think mint has timeshift enabled by default. Try going back to when the games worked and figure out what change caused the gamss to break?

dynamo,

didn’t make em often enough, sadly

model_tar_gz, in What happens when Linus dies/retires?

I’m training a code and language model to write Linux kernel code and provide snarky comments, of course all based on Linus’s extensive commit history.

Our AI Überherr will be pleased.

BCsven, in An Untold History of Thunderbird

“What caused the press to declare Thunderbird dead?” as a user who loved firefox from 2009-2012 it was Mozillas own mailings / web page wording that made everyone think the project had been terminated/no longer supported.

xremap.

  • Actively developed
  • Works on Wayland and is DE/distro independent
  • Written in rust so it’s faster and more lightweight compared to other similar apps written in python
  • Works on AARCH64 (not sure if it works on 16K kernels though, but worth trying)
