Experimenting with Linux cgroups to tweak memory limits for processes
Hey, I recently decided to get back to studying systems regularly and so I am conducting small experiments for learning purposes.I recently explored how cgroups can restrict process memory usage. Here's what I did:
1. Created a cgroup with a 1MB memory limit.
2. Ran a simple program that tried to allocate \~5MB.
3. Observed the process getting killed due to exceeding the memory limit (OOM kill).
4. Checked cgroup memory events to confirm the behavior.
You can find the detailed steps here.
Are there better ways to experiment with cgroups or other interesting use cases you'd recommend I should try? I wish to hear your thoughts and suggestions.
Thanks!

Rotating display output from GRUB
This project patches GRUB to support different display orientations, such as landscape and portrait modes, by modifying the underlying graphics stack to support rotated drawing transformations and introducing a new /etc/default/grub variable for setting the…
I’m thinking about chatting with my university about installing Linux on some of there older machines.
Okay so I love Linux, and it’s come a longgggg way the last 3 years with valves help. I believe it’s time that workplaces, libraries, etc. to consider using Linux to save money.
My biggest concern right now is the amount of e-waste that is the result of Windows requirements for the security chips. My uni just sent out a notice that they’re getting less money next fiscal year, and I’m thinking about chatting with IT about setting up Linux with KDE on the machines that’d just be sold off for pennies via surplus.
Most people also don’t want to admit it, but folks in admin or similar usually use google suits, and even Microsoft office now is available online now.
Myself, if it wasn’t for Microsoft office being installed I’d be doing all my work through the browser. This leaves me to the argument that Linux is stable enough to be ran as a daily machine.
Even accessibility tools, and other things are available now yes some setup but IT can auto set things up on most new installs.
I’m just trying to figure out is there a really why this hasn’t been a thing, my guess is the lack of management tools and network logins.

I found something in an old server’s RAM. It wasn’t supposed to be there.
I was debugging a memory leak on an old machine.
Dumped a chunk of /dev/mem just to see what’s there.
Expected garbage.
Instead, I found this.
I don't know who wrote it.
Maybe it was always there.
Maybe it wrote itself.
(I didn't change a single byte.)

Looking for a Windows WIN+H-style speech-to-text solution on Linux
On Windows, I regularly used WIN+H to activate speech recognition and dictate directly into any text field. It was a huge timesaver for my writing workflow.
Now that I’ve switched to Linux, I’m wondering:
Is there anything similar on Linux that allows system-wide speech-to-text dictation? Ideally something lightweight and privacy-friendly.
And if that's not possible: can anyone recommend a simple Markdown editor where I could use speech recognition reliably?
Open source tools, practical setups, or personal experiences are all very welcome!

Acer laptop with locked nvram
I have an old laptop that I fight not to throw away, and for fun I have been trying to install linux on it for a long long time.
Tried almost every possible distro, and they would all freeze in different parts of the install. And I cant start live linux.
Recently I found out that using ventoy, it is possible to run live linux. (balena etcher and rufust dont work)
Then I saw that all installations fail at bootloader stage. And after googling, i found that the problem is locked nvram.
Is there a distro than can be easily installed on a laptop with locked nvram.
Laptop is acer es1-533. Old laptop that needs a light distro.

wow, Linux just saved my gaming laptop
I have a Nitro V 15 with an RTX 4050 6GB I5 13 gen. I've never had anything to complain about in terms of gaming performance; after all, there's plenty of power left for the games I play. But for everything else, the performance was TERRIBLE, even after formatting the computer plenty of times. The biggest problems were:
Browser performance was completely unstable and made no sense at all. There were times when a website would take almost 3 minutes to load, sometimes even freezing the entire system ([similar to this problem](https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftedge/forum/all/infinite-loading-in-new-tabs/b0e7bdb5-73a7-494d-a12a-408a77a40fea)). I thought it was a hardware issue (I tend to keep many tabs open) or a DNS problem, but I ended up just accepting it. When I switched to Pop!\_OS, this problem just disappeared, and web Browse became as fast as I expected it to be, even in battery-saving mode.
The battery life was horrendous. Even in battery-saving mode in Windows and Acer's software, it wouldn't even last an hour (proof it's not cap). Now, with Pop!_OS, set to battery-saving mode and running on the integrated GPU, it can last 4 hours; It quadrupled the battery life and stopped it from being just a mini PC with a screen that I need to keep plugged in all the time. Now I use it in battery-save mode even when it's plugged because the difference in performance is unnoticeable if I'm not playing something.
I'm not saying that Linux can/will save your laptop, I just want to state that this was my experience. The curious part is that I didn't even install Linux for this purpose; I just liked Pop!_OS when I tested it on my desktop for a while and downloaded it to my laptop's secondary SSD because I missed it, now I can't go back to Windows at all.

This is soon cool! Finally they make Microsoft sweat! They have had monopoly on these things for too long.
