  • I’m currently dual booting Pop OS and Fedora KDE edition with a 3080, so essentially using both an old GNOME version (Pop) and Plasma 6 (Fedora). Pop works straight out of the box if you choose the Nvidia install and the Nvidia controls are fairly similar to Windows.

    Fedora gave me some problems getting it going, but once I’d opted in to proprietary drivers, and did a few updates, it’s been all good. The HDR implementation in Plasma is way better than Win 10 and the only issue with VRR is that it won’t work if you have a multi-monitor setup. Turning off the other monitors works fine. The gpu controls are more limited though.

    GNOME is a bit behind Plasma. VRR is an experimental feature and HDR doesn’t run on Nvidia cards. Both should be fixed sometime this year I believe.

    If you undervolt your card you are out of luck. There are some limited overclocking tools but underclocking seems like a bit of a nightmare.



  • Solved with this solution. It would only work over 80 and 443.

    Lighttpd was using port 80 for pihole. Back when I set it up you could change the server port but it would be overwritten every time pi hole was redeployed, hence why I didn’t just change this in the first instance. They seem to have updated it so that editing the .conf and changing the port number will persist.







  • Technically the cost of the actual rail infrastructure is less. It requires much less width for the corridor and both road and rail need roughly equal strengthening for the foundations. Overhead lines and signalling are not a significant incremental cost so long as you have an existing network.

    However, you generally only build rail where there is sufficient latent demand. This means the land you require is of higher value and land is one of the most significant costs assuming you would need equal infrastructure requirements (e.g. bridges, structures, tunnels, etc.) regardless of mode.

    Therefore, on a per kilometre basis, rail is often more expensive. The key difference is throughput. Rail is highly efficient for both freight and passenger movements, over sufficient distances, because it is a fixed corridor with right of way or full segregation. A dual track railway can carry far more tonnes of freight or many multiples more people than a dual lane road as it doesn’t suffer from congestion.
