Is it possible to set a hard limit to the max wattage of my AMD GPU?
You can use LACT as an alternative to CoreCtrl. There is also an option to set it manually through the SysFS: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AMDGPU#Manual_(default)

LACT (AMDGPU settings tool) now supports advanced fan curve configuration, voltage control on newer GPUs and uses GTK4 for the GUI
I just pushed some UI improvements: PR

- How do I overclock my radeon card?
-
any monitoring tools for nouveau
LACT can probably work with nouveau if the driver exposes the stats. You can check if `/sys/class/drm/card0/device` contains the information you need.

New alternative amdgpu fan control for Linux
I remember looking for something like this a long time ago and ended up writing this. My solution is probably overkill for people just looking to configure the fan speed though.

Show HN: YouTube banned adblockers so I built an extension to skip their ads
I use the Hosts file to block a ton of ads and that works really well. https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts Something worth considering if your ad blocker isn't working well.

Browser extensions spy on you, even if its developers don't
You can also use a declarative adblocker like uBlock Origin Lite [1], which only provides the browser with a list of elements to filter, but doesn't have any permissions to read content or perform requests. Or simply use your hosts file to apply OS-wide filtering with no browser add-ons needed: https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts
Be aware that if you use these "passive" blocking methods, there are some sites like YouTube where you will see ads, because in these cases it's necessary to actually manipulate page content to hide them. What you can do is use a traditional adblocker but enable it only for these few sites where the declarative approach is not enough, take a look at [2] for more details.

[Paid Release]CCAdsBeGone - Customized Ads Blocking At Your Fingertips
When I select my custom hosts file, it basically breaks internet. However, if I choose a custom hosts file that is a copy of the dev's default, or if I just add a few lines to it, it will work. If I add too many lines, or use a different hosts file altogether (like the ones recommended by the dev), all connectivity breaks. Of course the latest official LetMeBlock is installed and mDNSResponder killed/restarted. I'm using Dopamine on A12+.
