Just tried overclocking my Raspberry Pi

Looks like I lost the silicon lottery because I cannot go to 3.0 GHz :face_exhaling:

2.8 GHz worked well though


What am I even doing

Is it not against policy not to put the credit “Powered by I​fastnet” on visible pages like InfinityFree does? The only link, at cursory inspection, I could see that they share the same platform see is the name of NS servers.

Well for record we are talking about (I think) the other hosting service, not InfinityFree

yes, of course, InfinityFree is the gold standard :smiling_face: but the quote was taken from a thread about a competitor that lacks exactly that same line.
EDIT:

whelp. Meishin got it first!

VPS owners, what would you do if libc has an update, and needrestart lists every single background services to restart? I just reboot the whole server :yawning_face:

First of all there will be AlmaLinux enjoyers

Secondly on my Ubuntu machines I just leave them there because I’ve set it to upgrade every night and I often forget to check if I have to reboot :rofl:

Probably a weird reason i don’t use almalinux, or even RHEL while i have my own red hat account..

One, heavier kernel more aimed for stability. And kernel drivers.

Two, SELinux. :hot_beverage:

Oh yea, my neighbor monitoring a renovation gave me a hot cup of tea :face_savoring_food:

When I’m using Fedora I often forget to turn it off and it’s totally a useful security feature

And if you really don’t like it you can turn it off :laughing:

@siglo_ph, since you seem to not be accepting PMs at the moment, I will do this instead.

I’d like to address your post. The idea you referenced dates back to June 2025 and has since been abandoned, as it would have generated unmanageable traffic in Hits, so it no longer fits your example. Also, while I completely understand what you were going for, I’d prefer not to be referred to as a “fluffy friend” or similar terms in future posts. Please keep references general and refer to me as a forum member. Thank you.

I’ve been experimenting with html javascript and canvas lately making all sorts of horrible animated visual effects but this one turned out ok

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<style>
  html, body {
    margin: 0;
    background: black;
    overflow: hidden;
  }
  canvas {
    display: block;
  }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<canvas id="c"></canvas>

<script>
const canvas = document.getElementById("c");
const ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");

function resize() {
  canvas.width = window.innerWidth;
  canvas.height = window.innerHeight;
}
window.addEventListener("resize", resize);
resize();

let t = 0;

function draw() {
  const w = canvas.width;
  const h = canvas.height;
  const cx = w / 2;
  const cy = h / 2;

  // Fade previous frame slightly (CRT ghosting effect)
  ctx.fillStyle = "rgba(0,0,0,0.15)";
  ctx.fillRect(0, 0, w, h);

  const rings = 220;
  const maxRadius = Math.max(w, h) * 0.75;

  for (let i = 0; i < rings; i++) {
    const p = i / rings;
    const radius = maxRadius * p;
    const angle =
      p * 12 +
      Math.sin(t * 0.02 + p * 6) * 1.2;

    const stretch =
      1 + Math.sin(t * 0.03 + p * 8) * 0.35;

    ctx.save();
    ctx.translate(cx, cy);
    ctx.rotate(angle + t * 0.005);
    ctx.scale(stretch, 1);
    ctx.beginPath();
    ctx.arc(0, 0, radius, 0, Math.PI * 2);
    ctx.strokeStyle = `rgba(255,255,255,${0.25 * (1 - p)})`;
    ctx.lineWidth = 1.2;
    ctx.stroke();
    ctx.restore();
  }

  t++;
  requestAnimationFrame(draw);
}

draw();
</script>
</body>

Corrected my previous post in the old thread. And I realized that I should be more mindful of my actions and words. My apologies.

I have unified write filter on on my Windows 11 VM so it was supposed to reset the OS to a clean state after every reboot, but no, I took a closer look and it wasn’t doing its job.

Turns out that I’ve only turned on the filter, but never asked it to protect the C: drive…

uwfmgr volume protect C:
