I set this up with proxmox on a lark over a weekend It would have been perfectly fine for desktop usage, but I had terrible performance, like sub 30 fps in vanilla Minecraft. (i3-8100, 1060 6gb) It may be possible to optimize it further, but I think you need some much better hardware than I have. It was surprisingly simple though, there are guides on the proxmox website.
This is what the nice command is for
I’ve been diagramming/documenting my network at work using draw.io, it is a little clunky but it works well for me, has good features and preloaded art for different types of devices.
I usually haven’t, but I installed Clam about a month ago on my desktop, ran a full and complete scan, then left it running scheduled scans. Hasn’t found anything, and I get a lot of software from outside of my package manager, and use wine for a lot of it, so I’d say my risk/exposure is higher than most.
I think it’s fine to go without AV on a linux desktop, but I like the peace of mind. There will definitely be more things targeting linux sytems as/if more market share is acquired, but in terms of security it’s more important that you harden the system than run an AV.
Hot news, linux is incredibly compatible with printers. CUPS is very well designed. With relatively little technical knowledge you could probably plug a raspberry pi into virtually any old printer and get it running with the Pi as a print server sharing it with the network.
i3 counts, right? I have always been a keyboard oriented user and a big part of what drove me from Windows is them breaking or changing the hotkeys I used regularly. To me it is the perfect “you have control, this is your device, it works and looks how you want.” wm
I’ve used alacritty for ages, its lack of ui is appealing on a tiling wm and it is as performant as i need it to be
