Try xrdp and xorgxrdp (with --enable_glamor) for gpu acceleration of x-windows in containers. I have successfully tried it on integrated intel and radeon GPUs with opensource drivers.

  /* Hide horizontal tabs at the top of the window */
  #main-window[tabsintitlebar="true"]:not([extradragspace="true"]) #TabsToolbar > .toolbar-items {
    opacity: 0;

I used Resilio Sync (ex BTSync) to transfer between devices, but it's not open source and by default allows to use "relay" servers: https://www.resilio.com/individuals/

What was an MTU in the test, how increasing it affects the results ?

Reminds me how complicated it was to generate 40Gbit/sec of http traffic (with default MTU) to test F5 Bigip appliances, luckily TCL irules had `HTTP::retry`

perhaps margin of error should be raised to accommodate this change of about 1%, although the set of drives under test is likely not the same between years

I might have run into this on a few systems, which started reporting first days of new year as 53rd week of 2021, instead of 2020.

Most systems behave as expected:

  $  date +%G.%V --date="03 Jan 2021 00:00:15"
  2020.53
  
  $  date +%G.%V --date="04 Jan 2021 00:00:15"
  2021.01

nginx had cold (for American standards) and conservative community to begin with, commercial version and F5 ownership likely "closed" it even more

it's a pity that community never evolved with nginx growth and success

never installed facebook app on a phone, but multiple 3rd party apps on the phone report to facebook. For some reported apps i've never been logged in.

looks like facebook knows my phone's "hardware id" from somewhere

edit: good to know that uBlock blocked all web activity
