So I have a closed loop water cooler on my GPU and I replaced the stock single speed fan with two Noctua PWM fans (doing push/pull) connected to my motherboard. Even though the fans can be seen by lm_sensors and fancontrol the Nvidia GPU does not appear as it’s proprietary driver.
I knew nvidia-settings could be used to query the temperature (and the pump speed if you care) so I wrote a script to tie it all together:
gsettings set org.gnome.metacity theme "Arc-Dark"
# For good measure...
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'Arc-Dark'
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences theme 'Arc-Dark'
template.txt contains:
Hello ${NAME}
Then you could run:
export NAME=Dan
envsubst < template.txt
And the result would be “Hello Dan”
After reading Atlassian worflow comparison and Vincent Driessen original post about GitFlow I have come to realise a couple of worrying things:
I incorrectly assumed GitFlow was the same thing as GitHub flow (fork project, do work then pull request)
This model appears to be popular but it seems totally archaic to me
I use pull requests but don’t use feature branches which the Atlassian article implies requires feature branches
alias json='xclip -o | jq -C "." | less -r'
By default Ubuntu does not install the EWS (Exchange Web Service) plugin for Evolution
sudo apt-get install evolution-ews
Then go into Evolution and choose the following settings:
Now click “Fetch URL” and it should ask you for a password and populate the Host and OAB Url correctly.
It will then try and launch Evolution but for me I had to restart for it to correctly work and then it asked me a couple of times for my windows password.
Related to my QCon talk and original blog post, I’m soft launching my 10second.build project.
I had to switch to using proprietor AMD drivers as the open source ones don’t support audio via display port, but after switching, Chrome was tearing and just going completely black.
The chrome GPU page reported no hardware acceleration enabled.
So I went to Chrome Flags page and forced GPU acceleration and rasterisation
Override software rendering list -> Disabled
Enable GPU rasterization -> Force enabled on all layers
Smooth Scrolling Linux -> Enable
