Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Do I need to have a beefy PC to transcode 4k? Or can I just buy my brother an Nvidia shield pro and setup a cheap server on my end?
This can be patched out. https://github.com/keylase/nvidia-patch

GPU Guide (For AI Use-Cases)
Nvidia has no motivation to make a consumer card with lots of VRAM, that's basically the only (relevant) separator between the GeForce family and the Quadro lineup.
There are restrictions on NVENC streams with consumer cards, but that has been a solved problem for a while [0].
If they were to make a consumer card with more VRAM, it would immediately undercut their own Quadro/Tesla lineup, which cost substantially more. I don't see a reason for them to do it.

Can't hardware transcode mor than 5 at a time even after all the required changes
I have never had to do the session limit bump thing from the last link. I have a 3090 as well and simply did the initial unlock, which worked fine. I would reinstall fresh drivers from Nvidia, making sure you install the newest one that is supported by the unlock tool (536.40 as of this post, the GitHub for the patch has links to the drivers - https://github.com/keylase/nvidia-patch/tree/master/win)
- Can you flash any consumer version Nvidia card to remove the streaming limits?

Can my GPU transcode?
Aren't these Quadro versions. The patch here. https://github.com/keylase/nvidia-patch supports Quadro versions of you click on the win clickable.

Let's have a talk - Guide to Choosing the Best Plex Server for You
Second, the GPU. The GPU is probably as important as the CPU, and in some cases more important, and when we talk about GPUs we will primarily talk about Nvidia GPUs as they are officialy supported by the Plex team. NVIDIA GPUs are important for Plex hardware transcoding due to their dedicated video encoding/decoding units, superior performance, wide codec support, improved video quality, reduced CPU load, power efficiency. They offer a powerful hardware acceleration solution that can greatly enhance the transcoding capabilities of a Plex server. It's also important to note that Nvidia GPUs require a patch to unlock the number of HW transcoding streams. Dedicated GPUs are large pieces of hardware and have their place in desktop PCs. However, they can also be used with mini-PCs by using an external GPU enclosure.

What does this Max. 3 concurrent stream cap mean anway?
As there's no NVENC patch available (yet) for the Beta driver branch - referring to this one: https://github.com/keylase/nvidia-patch - which can lift the limits of HW transcoding, I was now wondering a little, as I can see 5 (hw) streams on Plex, which actually shouldn't/cannot be the case no?
-
Is there somewhere that lists Nvidia GPUs.
I haven’t done this yet but there is a patch on GitHub that removes the limitation for consumer GPUs. Makes lower end cards more attractive for this type of work

- Sway is an i3-compatible Wayland compositor
- Sway 1.9 Release
- Sway 1.9

"We understand" ;)
This is partially why i use tools like i3 (/ sway). i like the tool; it works extremely well for me; the design has stayed the same for 20 years; there's no profit motive to come along and fuck everything up. it just works. it is boring in the best way possible.

Firefox on the Brink?
I also have crashes on sway, but there’s a rough workaround now which prevents the issue totally.
I believe there’s a design issue with Firefox and GTK handling input events; some Wayland compositors have workarounds but others do not.

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1743144
Firefox is my preferred browser and I hope we can keep its engine alive in this era of Chrome dominance.

Sourcing dot profile on sway starutp
I'm seeing this: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/Setting-Environmental-Variables but I haven't figured out how to make GDM do it, and I was wondering if there was a super simple "HEY SWAY READ MY .PROFILE" thing I could do.

Option to not scale xwindow clients still out of the question?
So I searched around and found the following bug report where this problem and a possible solution was borough up: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/2966 , which was then immediately closed again.

What Desktop Environment or Window Manager do you use on your Arch Linux System and why?
I've been using Sway since late 2019. I like the workflow of a WM. I honestly find it hard to go back to a DE, I like having a minimalistic desktop.

On Desktop GUI Minimalism
Sway is fast, minimal, and flexible. Their recommended tools/addons are worth a look: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/Useful-add-ons-for-sway
From that list I use greetd + tuigreet as my login manager, sway-launcher-desktop for FZF-powered app launching, and wob for lightweight brightness and volume display (send '50' to the wob socket and it'll show 50%; it doesn't get simpler).
