It's time for a new benchmarking video! I decided to revive the old Brunchmark name (and Github repo) because this video was a lot of fun to make and I definitely plan to do more like this. 0:00 Introduction 0:30 Creating a single instance from Vultr's web ui 1:40 Deploying all four test instances with Terraform 2:16 Setting up the Tests 2:38 Helsing: Vampire Number Generator 3:18 Primesieve: Prime Number Generator 3:58 Botan: SHA256 Hash Generation 4:36 Thoughts & Conclusion 5:41 Outro & Trying to play Sopwith while benchmarks are running I only looked at CPU performance using 3 benchmark tests. This makes it easier to compare instance types AND VPS platforms in the future. Too much data can make graphs annoying and hard to read. FEEDBACK REQUESTED! I'm a systems engineer IRL so writing tests and gathering data is my jam. Presenting results is not, so PLEASE let me know if I was mistaken in any of the graphs or if you know a better way to display the data. I'm totally winging this stuff hahaha VIDEO REFS All of the tools and scripts I used in this video are from Open Source Software projects!

Attempting to theme and configure the Budgie desktop just the way I like it. Part 1 of this video is here - https://youtu.be/PF6SQa_r9l8 Last time I looked at Budgie I had issues with a few things that weren't Budgie's fault at all. Certain things, like right-click being broken, are still an issue but I figured a couple things out: - The issue with Raven was the theme I was using - The issue with search not finding Flatpaks was because of my default shell (fish) I'm still not a fan of how tightly-coupled Budgie is to Gnome. For example, on KDE or Mate, I could stretch the desktop wallpaper to fit the monitor but since Budgie uses Gnome's settings, there's not an easy built-in way to do that. Sorry about the lack of timestamps - this video is kinda all over the place and the timestamps I had didn't make much sense.
