It doesn’t have to be the main GPU. I’m not even sure it would be possible to pass through integrated graphics. But if all you need is HDMI output, you can use the absolute cheapest GPU you can find (assuming there’s an open PCIe slot). PCIe pass-through does require CPU support (Intel VT-d or AMD-Vi) on the host and may need to be enabled in the BIOS/UEFI. I have an NVIDIA Telsa card passed through to a VM on my Proxmox server, but I’m only using it for compute; my card doesn’t even have a video output.

Deposing one king so the regicide might sit upon his throne is not the same as abolishing monarchy. That isn’t bothesidesism, it’s just fact.

Chinese hegemony might be in opposition to American hegemony, but it’s still hegemony.

“You will use Edge as your default browser”

Do you think he’s tired of winning, yet?

Simple! Just change the gravitational constant of the universe.

OK, and compared to what? “Less” is a comparison, but you didn’t specify what you’re comparing Debian to.
Out-of-the-box RAM usage is a pretty specious metric because you’re not installing Debian (or any other OS) just to have sit there in its out-of-the-box condition. Do you think a Debian server running Apache with 1000 vhosts will use less RAM than a RHEL server running nginx with 10 vhosts?

Define what you mean by “overhead”

It’s weird to say there’s no upper limit. Somewhere around magnitude 46, the entire universe would collapse into a black hole. I think once you’ve destroyed the universe, you can stop counting.

SMB is a network protocol developed by Microsoft. It’s the protocol used by Windows computers to share files with each other. But the protocol was reverse-engineered and a program called Samba provides SMB functionality on Linux. You only see print$ because your Samba isn’t configured with any file shares. You’ll have to configure it. You can find guides online about how to configure Samba. Samba also maintains its own user list independent of the system. That’s why your local account password didn’t work.

A progressive, democratic Iran would have been such a better ally for the United States over the past seventy years than the Saudis (or even the Israelis) have been. But instead, we made them an enemy by toppling their democratic government. We really need to stop manufacturing enemies for the next war.

I’ve tried getting yacy to work on two separate occasions. I’ve thrown generous resources at it but never had a satisfying experience.

It’s always someone else’s fault in the Party of Personal Responsiblity

Confusion to the enemies of democracy!

It’s also worth asking whether the GOP is irredeemably lost. Just 20 years ago, the Republican zeitgeist was about “compassionate conservatism” and “spreading democracy.” Times change, and pendulums swing back and forth (at least, we can hope they do).

Just 20 years ago, the Republican party’s mask of respectability was firmly in place. They used euphemisms like “compassionate conservatism” to make their contempt for the poor seem less than absolute. And “spreading democracy” was only ever an excuse to expand the military-industrial complex. The author hasn’t accepted that whatever good he believes is worth saving in the Republican party is just the bamboozle.

The primary concern is switchover time. A purpose-built UPS can switch in about 10 microseconds. Those large “solar generator” battery packs switch in about 30 microseconds. That might be fast enough, but it’s not guaranteed to be fast enough like a UPS is.

UPS batteries are only rated for a few years’ use, so you probably are due for replacement.

I mean, has self-policing ever worked for anything? I’ve always assumed it’s tantamount to corruption.

My company has gotten good results from Amazon Textract.

Ehh… the headline is sensational and speculative. If the judgement against Trump is for the $250M James is suing for or even more, and if Trump Organization properties are liquidated to pay the judgement, then Mar-a-Lago, one of the Trump Organization properties, could be taken from him.

Some other framing would have been better. The juicier story is James’ team goading Trump into his numerous unwise admissions. Ideally, Trump will be left entirely destitute once all the cases against him are tried, but it is idle to speculate about financial verdicts before the trials are even over.
