As far as base services go Linux doesn’t really have that many that would be resource hogs.
For giving CPU preference to your game you can use nice. For keeping pages of memory from being invalidated you could maybe use mlock but I have no experience with that tool. Unnecessary use of the GPU would probably be the biggest drag. For your distro or desktop environment you should see if it has a “game mode” or any settings you can toggle that normally use the GPU.
Then couldn’t that give instances free reign to start creating fake votes?
As a long term Linux user I highly recommend the Universal Blue (immutable Fedora) spins. It’s been rock solid on my desktop and 10x better on a laptop I thought was a lemon because Ubuntu would crash or do other weird things about once a week. The immutableness hasn’t really caused me a lot of grief except when I tried to connect my 15yo printer (I just relented and got a new printer) when I had to go through a distrobox.
I’ve never hosted anything outside my home. Aren’t there services that are basically 3rd party Docker hosts for which you could run some kind of email container? Preferably not one of the big three, otherwise why leave Gmail?
I would say it helps more than zero but if you redact or rename tables and columns it becomes next to useless for attack planning.
Looks cool. Anyone who’s played can say how it differs from X-Com or Shadowrun?
