curl speaks HTTP/2 with proxy

=> ↺ curl speaks HTTP/2 with proxy

This version of HTTP changed a lot of previous presumptions when it comes to transfers, which introduced quite a few challenges to HTTP stack authors all of the world. One of them being that with version 2 there can be more than one transfer using the same connection where as up to that point we had always just had one transfer per connection.

Deploying UnifiedPush on Linux

=> ↺ Deploying UnifiedPush on Linux

I have previously written about how push notifications can be integrated on KDE Plasma Mobile and Desktop using the UnifiedPush standard. There are a few details still to work out though when looking at this from the wider Linux ecosystem perspective.

Applications on Linux interface with UnifiedPush via a relatively simple D-Bus interface. You can register and unregister for push notifications and get signaled the reception of such a message, that’s basically it.

Linux Driver Patch Reveals L4 Cache For Intel 14th-Gen Meteor Lake Processors | HotHardware

=> ↺ Linux Driver Patch Reveals L4 Cache For Intel 14th-Gen Meteor Lake Processors | HotHardware

Graphics processors need a lot of memory bandwidth for good performance. This is why discrete GPUs have hot-clocked GDDR or HBM on massively-wide memory interfaces, but integrated graphics don't have that luxury. Instead, they have to share a relatively-pokey (in terms of bandwidth) main memory interface with the CPU cores.
