    I use Linux because it is free and good enough to do most stuff I want to do on a computer.

    I use windows at work because I get paid - so from my perspective it is cheaper than free. It makes it frustrating to do the stuff I’m supposed to do but my employers are fucking idiots so it doesn’t really matter.




  • Surely that can be OPs choice.

    If a user has a large number of programmes they might not want to hand hold updates of all of them each time.

    If they choose only the handful they want from arch repo or aur then they might have a quicker update and find it easier to stay awake.

    I’d think it should be up to them if they want to trade off bloat vs the burden of an update.

    I find, especially for AUR stuff the update can become vexatious.










  • I’ve experienced random stuff like that in past - not exactly the same though and not that chip.

    I’d suspect power issue, either cpu and/or gpu causing a spike that results in some voltage rail to go unstable. More likely GPU, unless your applications are really thrashing all cpu cores.

    How old PSU? how much headroom? how good brand of PSU? Might also be a motherboard power management issue.

    Also - it might not hurt just to unplug and reseat every power cable.






  • There are other better answers here already.

    But you got me wondering, how red are red dwarfs really? Maybe they’re just like a few % more red than our sun, but I bet they’re still quite broad band.

    So you maybe could have a similar range of colour reflection and absorption. And maybe there’s enough R,G,B to saturate the receptors. I assume white is just that, when all color receptors are near saturated.

    The eyes might not need to differ much, the brain can probably do everything in post processing anyway. All evolution needs to do to your eyes is to gather enough raw data that your brain can learn to differentiate, food, water, danger, things to breed with, and so on.

    Maybe reduce the sensitivity of red receptor a wee bit, or maybe not, if plants are still absorbing lots of red, and we live amongst plants . . .
