The reward for exceptional hard work...is more work. Maybe you'll get an extra half a percent raise at the end of the year, but the increase in wages never matches inflation, even if you max out most corporate performance review scales.

Did you read the article?

You should listen to the Dan Carlin podcast series "Supernova in the east" about the Japanese war crimes - I believe similar train of thinking may be taking place in modern day Russia, leading to the same style of widespread war crimes.

I was expecting them to be executed on the spot for the perfidy. These Ukrainian soldiers have a lot of self-control

Maybe a stupid question, but have you power cycled your networking equipment?

Yeah, I'm not a fan of the titles, but I think the info is good

Google (The company behind Chrome) wants to create a type of DRM for web pages. Google claims that this will help with things like bot traffic, spam, etc.

Mozilla (The company behind firefox) is opposed to creating this DRM because it has no benefit to the end user and is likely to be harmful to the openness of the internet.

You likely know more than me about doing it, but this is my source

Single GPU passthrough

Currently, PCI passthrough works for dual-graphic cards only. However, there is a workaround for passing a single graphic card. The problem with this approach is that you have to deattach the graphics card from the host and use ssh to control the host from the guest.

When you start the virtual machine, all your GUI apps will be force terminated. However, as a workaround, you can use Xpra to detach to another Display before starting the virtual machine and reattach the Apps to display after shutting down the virtual machine.

If you have NVIDIA GPU, you may need to dump your GPU's vBIOS using nvflashAUR and patch it using vBIOS Patcher.

NVIDIA vGPU

By default, NVIDIA disabled the vGPU for consumer series (if you own an enterprise card go ahead). However, you can unlock vGPU for your consumer card.

You will also need a vGPU license, though there are some workarounds.

Follow this guide to manually setup a Windows 10 guest with NVIDIA vGPU.

Once I got my virtualization settings set up correctly in UEFI, and KVM was my hypervisor instead of QEMU TCG, my performance did seem pretty good. Maybe it's just working correctly without having to follow these steps?

Can I get the STL for your (comb style? Arch style?) cable organizer? I really dig it

For gaming? I haven't really run into any issues. If you're trying to virtualize your GPU for VMs and stuff like that, Nvidia is a lot more locked down. I use the proprietary drivers - the open source ones don't seem to perform as well. Most Distributions will just give you a prompt where you select which drivers you would prefer to use.

 
 

While systems like tanks, jets and cruise missiles tend to capture the public imagination, the war in Ukraine in 2023 is largely being fought with much the same tools as it was in 2022 - artillery.

The constant exchange of fire has been critical to the battle, enabling attrition, blunting attacks and enabling advances. Both sides have continued to adapt, trying to refine their tactics and capabilities while wearing down their opponent.

But in this attritional struggle, losses and resupply of systems, barrels and ammunition matter, not just tactics. Ukraine now finds itself in an ammunition deficit - trying to attack at a time where its allies have not yet ramped up production enough to readily meet its needs.

It's in that context that the US recently announced the supply of cluster munitions to refill Ukraine's ammunition bunkers. Today we look at those munitions, their likely impact, as well as the broader course of the artillery war in Ukraine one year on from my original video on the topic "outgunned"
