Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
    • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
    •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

    Is it worth it?

    [–] Bondrewd@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

    @lemann@lemmy.one

    Yes it is worth it. I made a setup with an e5 v3 CPU a few months back. The CPU was without a doubt the biggest bottleneck in my system even if it is an 8 core one. It might still be okay as long as multitasking is key, but it TANKS per-core performance.

    Battlefield V ran atrosciously with around half the FPS until I turned off mitigations.

    If you have an older system, there is no doubt its worth it. It could be the difference between usable and trash.

    Have fun getting compromised

    [–] Bondrewd@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    Barely any chance.

    [–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    Then why are they enabled by default?

    [–] Bondrewd@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    Why can they be disabled with one kernel boot parameter?

    [–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    For debugging purposes only

    [–] Bondrewd@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

    Better question is who would use that exploit?

    [–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 years ago

    No, you are opening up major security holes that can be exploited easily. You are basicly opening up every hole

    [–] lemann@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago

    to be completely honest, I have no idea

    [–] akhial@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago
