How could GNU Stow help me with my configuration files?
  • personally i always found stow to be annoying to use and switched to a bare git-repo approach. you can read up on it over here: https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/dotfiles. Like this your dotfiles just rest where they should and it's rather minimal overhead.

  • www.intel.com Advanced Performance Extensions (APX)

    Advanced Performance Extensions (APX) expand the entire x86 instruction set with access to more registers and adds various new features that improve general-purpose performance.

    Intel seems to have gotten "inspired" by ARM and is going to double the GP registers to 32 and implement a push2 and pop2 instructions that move two register values in one operation.

    Seems interesting enough.

    I like programming.dev and what's happening on my "local" instance, but once i check of what's happening in the wild (other instances) I am reluctant to recommend lemmy to others.
  • It's not Lemmy it's mostly lemmy.ml and lemmygrad, two of the biggest instances. As both name's imply both are communist in nature but both host communities for multiple topics since they where the most active instances. The Lemmy Devs originally created Lemmy due to Reddit banning/quarantining multiple leftist subreddits around 2018/2019 and created lemmy.ml as the first instance. Don't know the history behind lemmygrad but it's a communist instance nonetheless.

    Recently riscv64 support has been merged in the 5.0 release, perfectly in time for me having time to get back into a project again. I'll be posting a barebones example soon since there is only one for x86.
