You are probably looking for “scaling”

Ask Science@lemmy.world•Have trees for building/paper/etc. seen much artificial selection to produce faster growing variants to reduce deforestation?English
63·1 year agoI absolutely agree. Those do not look like the same type of wood at all.
The link talks about new vs old construction lumber. “New growth” vs “old growth” is very misleading in this context. It should be understood as “fast growing trees” vs “slow growing trees” ie. soft wood vs hard wood.
With that said, I am very open to the idea that trees have been breed to grow faster (and of worse quality). I believe that without having any evidence of it, but this is not that evidence.

Linux@lemmy.ml•So apparently you can just, type the word eject into bash and it will pop open your disk drive
3·1 year agoNo, sadly not. Maybe it’s implemented in Fish?
That was what I was expecting, without trying.
Maybe it’s just the right Decky add-on away? I have used add-ons for enabling VPNs so this should be possible, if not done already.
- Can you connect to the same WiFi? If not, it’s gonna be impractical to connect without a cable. The Steam Deck has pretty fast WiFi, so if it lags i would bet your router is the bottleneck.
- Civilization is mostly strategy, it’s turn based so there’s plenty of time to talk strategy, it takes some time to get a hang of the game but the beginning isn’t too rough.

Dad Jokes@lemmy.world•I think batteries are gonna be the next big thingEnglish
2·1 year agoPotential energy just means the energy hasn’t been “released” yet. That energy is still some “kind” of energy, so we’re both right, a battery has potential chemical energy.

641·1 year agoFunny how Microsoft registered the domain on PorkBun, and chose not to publish the ownership information. And yet you know the real owner.
That, or you’re just lying IDK…

Linux@lemmy.ml•Is Qubes any more efficient in resource usage than a typical VM?
10·2 years agoIt uses the Xen hypervisor, not qemu/KVM. Technically it is a Xen kernel virtualizing Linux since it is a type 1 hypervisor.
TBH i used to alt-tab away from what ever non-work-related thing i was doing, to a terminal emulator when ever my boss walked in.
It was usually showing my latest package upgrade.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How do you inform yourself on topics which don't belong to your field of expertise?
5·2 years agoI think you mean Cole’s Law
Lots of people have already mentioned Ventoy.
MediCat is Ventoy with a ton of images and a config file. It seems great, although I chose to roll my own as MediCat had a lot of Windows-centric images i have no need for.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's the best "fuck you world" song of all time?
13·2 years agoNo Children - The Mountain Goats
But not in a “fuck you world, I’ll do what I want” kinda way. More of a “I wanna watch it burn” kinda way.
- Fedora has a major update every 6 months, and every version is supported for 2 releases + 1 week (= ~1 year).
Updates have always been pretty painless for me. Most of my problems during updates have come from NVidia drivers (on a laptop), but a fix has always been available from the community. - Fedora has auto-update systemd services for both DNF and RPM-OSTree (more on this later). IIRC it’s just enabling a service and maybe editing a config file, but this is easy to search for, so I won’t tell you stuff I might not remember.
- SELinux mostly just works, and if it doesn’t it’s probably a bug (if something is a package for Fedora, SELinux should work OOTB. Browse Fedora Magazine for the quirks you need to know how to handle.
- I have no experience with ARC GPUs but Fedora might have better support as it tracks the latest kernel release = latest driver (depends on what was actually the issue, of course)
Concerning you RAID, just make sure the installer doesn’t touch it and mount it afterwards. You might have to do some kind of “restore” to give the files the needed SELinux metadata. The Discourse forum would probably be a good place to ask.
Now, a bit about DNF vs RPM-OSTree. Fedora with DNF is the standard distro much like most other distros. Use this if the next part doesn’t sound useful to you.
RPM-OSTree is used in a new family of distro that work a bit like git for your OS.
Your system runs off an “atomic” image. Atomic means unsplittable in Greek. Everything you change on your system is applied to your atomic image, like a file is added or removed from a git repo.
This is nice because upgrading to the next major version becomes a simple matter of rebasing you changes on top of the new version, and likewise, rolling back (in case of issues) becomes a single command and a reboot.Fedora IoT is the “Server” edition of the Atomic desktops. Fedora CoreOS is a more “immutable” approach.
Feel free to ask more questions if something doesn’t make sense.

Linux Phones@lemmy.ml•What used phone should I get to try alternative OS?
3·2 years agoYes it is (sadly) very different for phones.
When an the OS for an Android phone is created, the Linux kernel is forked, and the firmware/drivers for it’s hardware components are laid on top (instead of being upstreamed to the kernel). When the manufacturer decides they no longer care about that phone, they stop updating firmware and that will no longer receive updates. You might use a rom that still updates everything else, but these critical parts won’t get updated anymore.
The newer Pixel generations get 5-7 years of security updates (IIRC). I believe IOS devices get 5 years.
Android and arm has (/had? I might be partly out of date) a lot of out of tree (not included in the upstream Linux kernel) code which makes booting it on Linux a shit show.
This is also why so few devices are supported by the Linux-phone-OSs.







Check out Blue Build for building custom Fedora Atomic images.
You create a GitHub repo using their helper website and use yaml. They even have some useful modules specific to desktops (that would have been a huge pain to do in Dockerfiles)
