From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So many f****** ads I gave my cell phone cancer.

TMA:DR

When taking the geometric mean of 73 benchmarks run for this comparison, upgrading from the Ryzen 9 7950X to 9950X on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS yielded a 14% generational improvement with this set of cross-platform applications/benchmarks while under Windows 11 was a 10% generational improvement. The raw performance of Ubuntu Linux on the AMD Ryzen processors also was greater overall to the extent of the Ryzen 9 7950X to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS nearly matching the Ryzen 9 9950X on Microsoft Windows 11.

Where is the tldr bot now? You guys bullied him

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Was actually a damn good bot =(

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

We never knew how much we needed the bot. Then we clicked on an article and were swathed in ads.

No ads with Mull and uBlock Origin.

Firefox and uBlock solves your problems, mate.

edit linked it so you can install them now

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (2 children)

already running firefox, usually the piholes eat the ads. not on that site tho for some reason

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Hm strange, can't you add/modify PiHole's block lists? Perhaps you can add all of uBlock's lists in it?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

They're usually pretty aggressive, something about what was on this site passed by it though or maybe my s***'s broken I don't see ads anywhere else...

I will have to say, that site has a ridiculously amazing amount of ads. It's like they took all the ads from all the recipes that ever had chicken noodle soup and added them to all the recipes for people that searched for a certain air cleaner and put them together under one page

Why not Ublock origin?

I run Ublock origin and Privacy badger on my phone

Meh, it was ok on the ad front.
