    Regarding SEO, What’s stopping maintainers from vandalizing their own fandom page?

    It would not be difficult to make a bot to update fandom page with a convincing but slightly wrong info, after a few hundred iterations, it’s all useless. Go look at what google recommend and do complete opposite. I’m convinced this will bomb ranking and put whatever wiki they migrated to at the top.


  • Flac is a low bar for any music player though. I don’t know whether itunes support it yet, don’t care.

    I’m sure Rhythmbox works well for you and that is great. But I also need some niche features which might not be in it.

    Mostly conversion and forensic thing.
    ape tak tta format, bit compare, audio checksum, mass-tag/batch-tag, replaygain, custom playlist columns, statistic driven field. Don’t know what else until I try and find it’s missing.

    I’m also sure I can get all those and more in different cli tool if I want but getting them in one software is very convenient.

    After a quick look, DeaDBeeF might have most of what I want.

    • Sort and group the tracks in any order you wish, using advanced Title Formatting scripting, compatible with Foobar2000

    Got the date wrong, last time I tried it was 2018. Lot of new features added since then.











  • Already tried that. No significant improvement over running at uncapped with v-sync (60fps).

    baseline:
    uncapped with v-sync (60fps)
    result: running at 40% usage and 40C temp.

    nvidia cp config:
    capping at 20fps with or without v-sync (running in background)
    result: usage jump up and down predictably between 20% and 50%, no temperature difference.

    Clearly worse than capping it at game engine level since ES2 shows linear and stable drop in GPU usage. I assume this varies greatly on different game engine.






  • I try not to mess with my my current windows desktop setup too much if I don’t have to (mission critical). It’s not on VM.
    Would love to do it with LUKS/EXT4 if possible but it’s not supported on windows (am I correct?)

    If I use VC then I have to install it on both win and linux and also any additional machine I intend to decrypt with, that’s quite unwieldy compare to LUKS. I also have lobotomized my current install to cripple spying and broke it to the point it can not update to support wsl.

    Seems like bitlocker is a proper solution for the moment. Or just do two partitions (maybe two drives), encrypt one with LUKS, wipe everything unencrypted when done using it.


  • Linux Windows Preparation
    LUKS LUKS no can do / unless WSL
    LUKS ??? cryptsetup
    LUKS VeraCrypt ???
    VeraCrypt VeraCrypt VeraCrypt GUI from either
    ??? BitLocker Format with NTFS in Windows

    I’m still a bit confused with veracrypt… The docs make it sounds like vc use its own format.
    Can the drive be prepared with LUKS and then decrypt in windows with veracrypt? If not, I might just use bitlocker until I drop windows.




  • trying to figure out a preferred physical layout

    How to even do this? I can’t wrap my head around what or how many to consider.
    Use to work a lot with graphic tablet and belkin n52 (later nostromo) and wanted something that combine functional keyboard and left-handed pad. Got ErgodoxEZ few years ago… now I vaguely know that I want something smaller and more portable (maybe wireless and scroll wheel)… but layout? Absolutely no idea.
