What? Every BIOS in the world still uses the same system. Same thing for me on Linux.

Only hard driver manufacturers used a different system to inflate their numbers and pushed a market campaign, a lot of people who didn't even use computers said "oh that makes sense - approved"

People who actually work with computer, memory, CPU, and other components in base 8 just ignores this non-sense of "x1000"

I have dealt with "only works in kubernetes" because developers couldn't be bothered to make it even work on docker without all the hidden orchestration.

So, instead of documentation, they just make the service work in that one specific environment.

My experience setting up Pihole with Podman on a Raspberry Pi 1 Model B rev 2.0

It is nice that you got it running, but when everything you end up doing is running services in low ports or needing specific IP address in different networks, rootless podman is just a PITA.

In my case I have one pihole running on a docker container and another one that runs directly on a VM.

Someone said before "what's the point of running in a container"... Well, there really isn't any measurable overhead and you have the benefit of having a very portable configuration.

I do think the compromises one has to go through for podman rootless are not worth in this case, for me, not even the rootful worked properly (a few years ago), but this is a nice walkthrough for people wanting to understand more.

That has not been my experience... amdgpindriver was crashing quite often, gfx ring 0 timeout. Tons of people with that problem forums. I managed to adjust some parameters and fix it eventually.

VRR doesn't work properly, I can get it to work, burnout is a shore every time.

I have both and nvidia and an amd GPU, and with xwayland fixed, the nvidia one can run just as well.

That said, paying 2k for a GPU to have raytracing and 24gb of RAM isn't that attractive.
