Performance optimizations for gaming on virtual machines

This guide describes performance optimizations for gaming on virtual machines with GPU passthrough. This includes host, guest, qemu and libvirt optimizations.

SQLZOO - sql learning resource

A straightforward page containing SQL tutorials, guides and quizzes. If wanting to grok SQL quickly and efficiently this seems like one of the best ways to go about it in a weekend or over a couple evenings.

GitHub - rohit-px2/nvui: A modern frontend for Neovim.

A non-terminal frontend for nvim. Seems somewhat mature, and can presumably be used to introduce people to neovim that don't necessarily want to set up all the terminal pre-requisites.

Telling Stories with Data

An exhaustive book, free and available online, on publishing workflow.

Getting, preparing, cleaning data. Exploratory analysis and modelling with regression. Creating reproducible documents with quarto. Seems really nice and good to delve into for data analysis.

Setting up GPG - Securing and Configuring for Multiple Devices Using Subkeys

Perhaps the most concise guide on multi-device gpg use I have seen.

Covers creation of master key, creation of device subkeys (signing), export of per-device subkey combinations (signing and encryption as needed), removal of a master key if desired and import on devices, as well as removal of subkeys on devices where they should not be available.

Comprehensive, quick and concise.

GitHub - nadrad/h-m-m: Hackers Mind Map

A commandline mindmapping tool. Seems sophisticated enough to jot your thoughts down and very well presented!

Easy checking out of github pull request locally

One step to check out github pull (and I believe gitlab merge) requests locally:

git fetch origin pull/1234/head:pr-1234
  • origin is the remote origin you want to pull from, the one pull requests have been done against (e.g. your own repository if others have created pull requests there)
  • pull/1234/head should have the number of the pull request you want
  • :pr-1234 is the local branch you will create - it has to be a new branch

GitHub - SamR1/FitTrackee: Self-hosted outdoor activity tracker

Self-hosted outdoor activity tracker :bicyclist:. Contribute to SamR1/FitTrackee development by creating an account on GitHub.

Fediverse-aware fitness tracker. Can be self-hosted, still in somewhat early development I would estimate. Privileges biking/running/skiing - activities getting you between two points - since it is pretty tightly integrated with gpx files and openstreetmap.

Crash Course Python with SQL : dataengineering

A whole recommendation flood of going about sql learning. Syntax, Fundamentals, some advanced advice. Can be used to comfortably build a personal learning path.

Verify matrix session on gomuks from another device

Since interactive verification is (still) not working, this provides simple steps to verify a gomuks session.

Create a Windows 10 VM on Proxmox | Nick Neisen

Really nice simple walkthrough for getting a Windows 10 guest running on a proxmox host in a virtual machine. Goes over simple settings (especially virtio) and driver installation.

Can be supplemented with proxmox wiki page: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Windows_10_guest_best_practices

Which, especially, contains an up-to-date link to driver iso.

GitHub - linuxmint/warpinator: Share files across the LAN

Amazing cross-platform filesharing app (for sharing over wifi/LAN).

Super simple to setup, there's applications on anything from linux/windows/mac to android and ios and it's made by the linuxmint team so it's all nicely open source and free and wonderful!
