Thanks for the explanation!

Is that from Google? I was expecting much better code given the average engineer salary. That code looks pretty ugly.

Ntfs is a notoriously bad file system. If he has the physical space (which he has), better to use a better file system. Ext4 might be “old” but it’s a much better FS. Backup space is overblown imho

256 GB for OS only is huge for linux.

50 gb should be enough, unless you have very peculiar needs. You save 200gb SSD for demanding games that require fast I/O

1TB for backup is pretty big as well. Do you really need to mirror 1:1 your games’ folders? Can you not backup only save files?

Windows, I cannot judge. I don’t use it outside work

This is likely going to change as software support for gaming on Linux improves.

If you consider real high performance computing, with well optimized libraries that can properly use the hardware (including GPUs), 50 % difference between windows and Linux is not really surprising. This is the reason 100% of real high performance computing is done on Linux. It is a better OS for raw performances than windows. For some tasks we are easily talking over twice the performances. It is not always the case, but not surprising at all.

The differences clearly depend on the actual low level implementation of the code. But in general the current situation in gaming, with windows that competes with Linux on raw performances, is only due to lack of software support for gaming on Linux. As this is changing over time, we’ll see games performances greatly improve in Linux. Hopefully until the physiological surpass of windows performances.

Currently most of gaming support on Linux is done via some kind of translation layer, that has itself an overhead. It means that the real linux performance would be even better than in all these benchmarks, if it was really possible to compare 1:1 Windows and Linux with native, well optimized code.

They see and scan all traffic, even what doesn’t go through the browser.

No one should use work laptops other than for work

Do you have a name? I am looking for a decent ui that can use the apis to drop my subscription

But that would be illegal (at least in Europe), as user must agrees om being tracked

What is the new cool boy of the tracking systems?

They can’t be that stupid. Many companies that use zoom do it to discuss with clients, in conversations that are expected to be private and confidential. Training an ai might mean leaking some of this content, unless it’s an AI used exclusive internally at zoom. They better not use recording of meetings, unless they are ready to pay lawyers for years

Is these a real google plan, or just an engineer proposal on github?
