Check out the vfio kernel module. You use the vfio driver on the display you want to pass through. Then you can just add the pcie device in qemu the usual way. The performance is pretty darn good. To me the performance in games isn't perceptible. :shock: :bigthumb: I had no idea about vfio.. that's...

htop was my go-to until i found glances. :thumb: the only bad thing i have to say about glances is how bloatware it is.. written in python, so.. :lol: Give it a try if you like htop.. sudo apt install glances glances -t 1 I hear atop is cool because it can do logging. But i've cracked that feature o...

What do you use for performance monitoring at the terminal? I've investigated practically everything out there and Glances has to be my absolute favorite so far because it shows network and disk IO. 2020-11-30 14_53_57-Desktop.png Glances can also produce this awesomeness: 2020-11-30 15_05_26-Glance...

It's only a matter of time before you try a suspended trike or velomobile. When you do, you'll like it enough that you will most probably accept the compromises using it on your roads entails and your other bikes will collect both dust and rust. You're goddamn right. :mrgreen: Honestly i thought th...

Nah, i have the maxarya arriving tomorrow and do not have space for 3 recumbent bikes.

I'm going to chuck the Bike E on eBay for $300 an see what happens. As of writing there are, surprisingly, no bike E's for sale on eBay so i'm thinking i won't have too hard a time selling it.

Also use a windows vm with gpu passthrough for gaming and other windows only software.

What virtual machine software can do a gpu passthrough? i'm intrigued!

Okay i'll tell you about me. I run a business that deals with Windows IT, Linux server administration, and web development. Recently i have decided to get into the SAAS/cloud services game too. So i am in the process of greatly sharpening my linux-fu. My initial target for SAAS services is to offer ...

Well when i say MC tires i'm referring to the hutchinson spherus which is basically a thick bike tire with a harder motorcycle compound to carry high amounts of weight. I also have a Mitas MC2, used by solar racing teams, which has higher rolling resistance for sure. Shearing apart a trike front end...

Are there any other linux geeks out there? desktop guy or server guy?

I'd like to kick off some geeky gab here if possible..

First, I would make a mandatory rule that anyone who is a vendor or who works for a vendor must identify themselves as such. Commercial products are part of the hobby, that means many have a profit motive, and THAT means many serious issues. I have so much to say on how we can improve vendor relati...

The KP058 arrived and appears to have the right diameters and lengths to be the right part. :mrgreen: I also bought some jb weld with the idea that i will fill in the grooves cut into the rear swingarm. However, given that the disc brake side of the swingarm is where the damage is, i feel that i can...

While i'm waiting for my maxarya, i've been riding the bikeE quite a bit. After experiencing the usual 1 flat tube per ride, i decided to cave and install a prefilled slime tire on the rear. I would say that the effect on rolling resistance is about as bad as a motorcycle tire, and the added 1-2lbs ...

What xpeng is doing is the future of cars here in the west. :evil: General Motors recently announced an insurance company that uses onstar data to rank driver safety. So they are absolutely collecting shit-tons of data from your driving. It's got me thinking about what i will do with my little econo...

It seems that you are being flooded with spam - some of it in cyrillic, I think. I have no desire to moderate at another forum, but if you want help deleting spam and spammers, PM me, or tell me here. That was how I started at the Leaf forum. I'm up literally all night, so I was able to at least ge...

Based on the datasheet, these cells look like they begin to get seriously stressed beyond 1C. You don't want to see more than 0.1-0.2v drop during load per cell, ideally. 2020-11-27 12_56_50-Window.jpg Per the included graph, it would seem prudent to run this pack at an average of 1C with up to 3C b...

It seems that most people are OK with / see value in OTD thus far. I'll continue to run this poll because i want more less frequent posters to chime in with their opinions. And now for my take. My issue with OTD is that there's a few personalities who make discussing things like politics in any rati...

Echo chamber doesn't sound like a workable idea, although i found it funny. There's another thread running about 'other toxic discussions'. Can you all do me a favor and point your feedback there and leave it out of here. Side note, I am going to arrange with amberwolf to hook him up with some used ...

Sounds kind of like www.badgerandblade.com This is the most well run forum I've run across in a while. It's a bit overmoderated and way too strict on their marketplace, but as it's pretty busy it might be necessary. They do their photos a bit different. They have a gallery. Interesting forum setup....

Please post any good sales you've seen on this thread. I'll kick it off with a video from ebikeschool.com. ( mostly prebuilt ebikes )

Ya know, cracked chainstays tend to do that.. in those conditions.. you may want to look the rear of the frame over.. especially if you have a dual suspension bike.

Seriously you need to see some substance to the forum before you want to join. Why would anyone be motivated after that popped up? I agree. That's an old feature that's hard coded into phpBB and it harkens back to the days that bandwidth was very expensive. That shouldn't be an issue on our old pla...

Presently, if someone like me, with poor vision, can't read something, they have to either use Frank's 2000-inch TV ;) or they have to use the browser +/- zoom function, which resizes EVERYTHING on the page, including images, icons, and wasted spaces, so then they have to scroll up and down and bac...

I like that OTD no longer shows up under "New Posts" -- a big improvement IMHO in usability and separating the wheat from the chaff. Yeah i recently did that, given that this is the last phpBB update we will have. I literally just hacked that feature into the code. OTD will show up in 'yo...

A slightly more sophisticated "+1" (maybe a thumbs up icon like some use now) with a button to automate it, would be a decent alternative to the Dreaded "Like" button. OTOH it may be a distinction without a difference. The new format includes a fully customizable set of reaction...

A classified section based on location ..i actually have an add on system in mind that adds what is basically a facebook marketplace clone. We can tack this onto our forum system. I am not sure how stable/secure said software is though. If you want to read more about this system, check this out: ht...
