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.

Raspberry Pi 5 vs. Intel N100 mini PC comparison
powertop is just relaying whatever value my laptop's battery is reporting for consumption, read from sysfs[0]. Are you suggesting my laptop's battery is merely estimating current and/or voltage? I don't know much about the hardware in my laptop's battery, and I'm not succeeding in finding information online, but I'm going to need a source to believe that considering how trivial it would be for the battery to report real values for current and voltage.

Power State management best practices?
If you're certain your GPU has deeper power saving states than P8, I would start by checking why it's not using them. Maybe tlp, powertop or nvtop (or their documentation) can help.

Tool to monitor phone battery?
The only Linux tool for this I've even heard of is powertop , which OP mentioned, but it looks nontrivial to build (kernel patches are mentioned).

ARM64 Linux Workstation
It just got added in 2023, but there's now --auto-tune-dump which generates a command line invocation of powertop that would set all the auto-tune settings. Instead of running --auto-tune, you can make a script of this dump, modify it to your contentment, and run the script instead of auto-tune at startup.
Ideally there would also be a way to omit certain tunings from auto-tune as well, but

Moving from BSPWM to DWM and have questions
Would running auto-cpufreq and powertop be a better combination to avoid installing XFCE4 dependencies? I don't play a lot of games or do a ton of compiling, but when I need to, I would like to be able to get as much out of the hardware as I can.
- How does powertop determine which components/programs consume and how much?
-
Powertop constantly resetting
Recommend looking for an open bug report here for the same issue, and if nobody else has opened one you can file one yourself to get support/get the issue fixed in a patch.

Conserving battery on company managed Linux Distro
`powertop --auto-tune` can set some settings to "good", but it may in fact be counterproductive, e.g. setting USB to autosuspend that suspends a mouse that shouldn't be, etc. See here for more info. In my experience/research, it doesn't really do much.

What do you do to maximize battery life on your laptop?
For me it wasn't efficient by default. I use powertop and auto-cpufreq

Real time hardware/power monitoring à la HWiNFO?
It may be found at GitHub.

No one even read the box64 readme for today's RISC-V video
In the video, they mentioned they can't run steam on RISC-V because box64 doesn't support 32bit apps. In the README of box64, it is mentioned:

Stardew Valley on Starfive VisionFive 2 running Ubuntu 23.10 with external Ati Radeon HD 5450
I see it can do more now, already tried some stuff. But see it is now more mature than months ago. Will try factorio again https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64/issues/665

runing factorio on raspberry pi 5 4gb ram
Also, in the discussions of box64 is this thread: https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64/discussions/524 My guess is that you have to install both box64 and box86, the latest mesa drivers with vulkan support. And then try to launch the game with proton. There is also this issue that shows factorio running on a Rock 5B: https://github.com/ptitSeb/box86-compatibility-list/issues/284

Runing factorio on raspberry pi 5 4gb ram
In Box64, which is an emulator+JIT recompiler, and thus likely pretty slow?

DirectX 12 Support on macOS
macOS runs x64 executables just fine through Rosetta so I don't see why Wine couldn't make use of that hardware acceleration.
It's also possible to only simulate the entrypoints through Rosetta and then execute native aarch64 code from there. On Linux https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64 does exactly that, for example. However, with the performance Apple has been able to squeeze out of Rosetta, I'm not sure of that workaround is even necessary.

Factorio on Arm: A Benchmark
Recently, I got a server from Oracle Cloud, having 4 cores and 24GB of RAM. Then, using a software called Box86 and its 64 bit version called Box64, I succeeded in running Factorio! Unfortunately, 1.1.80 ran at 3 UPS! I went through each major version, testing each individual one down to 0.12. Here are my results!

How to emulate on M1 mac?
You could try https://github.com/ptitSeb/box86 and https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64/ , I believe they allow you to emulate x86_64 on aarch64, though I have no experience with them, so cannot say for sure.

currently trying to get tf2 to work, but steam removed 32 bit support (wanted to use box86) with their html login thing, so i just have this system laying around collecting dust lmao

How to run Linux games on ARM64
If you have time and patience take a look at box86 and box64. These are basically like translation layers that allow x86/x86_64 applications to run on ARM. I personally haven't use them yet, so I can't provide a guide or vouch for game compatibilities. But by the look of the progress made by them so far it looks promising.

Still a bit slow as Dynarec is not complete, but Stardew Valley now works on my StarFive2 with Box64
You can follow progress of this on https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64/issues/635
