  • auto-cpufreq

    Automatic CPU speed & power optimizer for Linux

  • Yes. Yes. Generally yes, undervolting and https://github.com/AdnanHodzic/auto-cpufreq is a good start. https://wiki.ubuntu.com the wiki is always the best place. Arch is better btw. 🙃

  • archwiki

    MediaWiki used on Arch Linux websites (read-only mirror)

  • There is not a single specific user guide. https://linuxjourney.com is a great new user resource. https://ubuntu.com/tutorials has tutorials specifically for Ubuntu. https://wiki.debian.org/ is a very good wiki for Debian, the parent distro for Ubuntu, which will help you understand most low level things not covered in tutorials, including anything involving the apt package manager. https://wiki.archlinux.org/ is a wiki for a completely different distro (Arch), but it is the best linux wiki on the internet, and is the best place to look for any general linux question that would apply to every linux distro. In general, moving from specific to general, you have your specific software (i.e. Steam,) then your flavor of distro (Ubuntu Mate,) then your distro (Ubuntu,) then your distro's family (Debian,) then linux in general. So if you're not finding information on the more specific end, you may want to drop to a more general layer and try to understand the general concepts that apply to your specific use case.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
