If you watch videos or stream movies and shows from your browser, check that it's actually using your GPU to accelerate that video decoding.
To check that in Firefox, type about:support in the URL bar, then search for "compositing" in the page. If it says "webrender", you're good.
To check if the GPU is used to decode videos, you can also search for "hardware_video_decoding". If it says "default available", you're good.
On Chromium based browsers, to check for that, type chrome://gpu in the URL bar.
On Firefox, to enable that, open the about:config page, then search for media.hardware-video-decoding.enabled. Double click the value to set it to true.
On any chrome based browser, you can just go to the settings, to "system", and toggle "use graphics acceleration when available". Provided your distro has the required packages, you should be good.
And, if you have an older chipset that isn't able to decode all formats using the GPU, like for example VP8 or VP9, you have browser extensions, called enhanced-h264ify for Firefox, or h264ify for Chrome, which will let you set h264 as the default codec on youtube.
One of the most useful tools here will be TLP. It's a command line only tool, but fear not, there's a graphical user interface that's much more user friendly here, called TLP UI.
Once installed, TLP will run automatically in the background after the first reboot. If you open TLP UI after that, you should see that it's enabled, and get access to all the various settings.
Now, if your computer has 2 GPUs, an integrated one, and a dedicated one, you might also want to check which one you're using: when using your laptop unplugged, you might want to just use the integrated GPU, and when plugged in, the dedicated GPU.
The easiest way to do so is by staying in hybrid graphics mode. If you have an nvidia GPU, and the proprietary drivers you can just open th Nvidia settings app, and head over to the "prime profiles" tab, and select "Nvidia on demand".
If you really want the best savings though, then you'll need to completely disable the dedicated GPU, either by using "Intel (power saving mode) in the nvidia settings app, or by using the BIOS to set your GPU to integrated only.
And of course, there are the usual basic changes you can make: the usual screen brightness thing, this can save you a ton of battery. The display's refresh rate is also a factor, and variable refresh rate will let you save some battery.
The more recent your hardware is, the better the chances a more recent kernel and drivers will have better hardware support and better performance and battery life.
The Palestine Information Center (Ma'ti) monitored 11 Palestinian resistance acts in the occupied West Bank, in addition to one injury among Israeli occupation forces, in the last 24 hours.
The incessant push to make us all verify our identities everywhere online makes me so fucking tired. I feel like I'm being pushed towards the digital equivalent of living in a shed in the woods, just to retain some remnant of the free & open internet we were promised.

Why Doesn’t Europe Take Real Action Against Netanyahu? EU Officials Face Calls to Be Held Accountable for Complicity in War Crimes. journal-neo.su/2025/06/12/why-…

Gaza (Quds News Network)- The Gaza Strip has plunged into a complete internet and communication blackout after Israeli attacks severed the last remaining fiber-optic line, the Palestinian Telecommunications Regulatory Authority announced on Thursday.
The authority confirmed that fixed-line internet and telecommunication services are now entirely cut off across Gaza, including the central and southern regions, which have now joined the digital silence already imposed on Gaza City and the north for the past two days.
“This is the result of systematic attacks on Gaza’s already fragile telecom infrastructure,” the authority said in a statement. Technicians have tried multiple times to repair and reroute damaged lines, but Israeli restrictions have blocked all efforts.

Yes, I'm an annoying online loudmouth. But disapproval/discomfort won't shut me up. Not when we need to keep speaking up for Palestinian people; especially now that Israel has cut off their internet and won't allow the outside world in to provide much needed aid.
My online behaviour spills into offline.
Recently, my opposition to apartheid Israel was recorded in parliament minutes. Along with bizarre defamation spoken under parliamentary privilege.
I've lost work, a prestigious literary award and money for opposing the state of Israel's genocide of Palestinian people.
At least one organisation is currently conducting a risk assessment on me (I don't think they'll cancel my contract, but if they do, that's a price I'm prepared to pay for speaking up).
Since being platformed on literary stages in 2020, I've used the mic to call out apartheid Israel's crimes against humanity.
I have taken risks to speak up, online and offline, and have paid the price. But the price will never be as severe as what Palestinians have been enduring today...for 21 months....77 years. For Palestine to be free, we all need to be willing to pay the price of speaking up/taking action.
There are more of us than them! Free Palestine, from the river to the sea!

I try to see good in people but I'm having a real rough time with either side.

TEHRAN, Jun. 13 (MNA) – Commander of Khatam al-Anbia Headquarters Major General Gholamali Rashid was martyred in Israeli regime's airstrikes on Tehran early on Friday.
“Tonight, Israel took unilateral action against Iran. We are not involved in strikes against Iran and our top priority is protecting American forces in the region. Israel advised us that they believe this action was necessary for its self-defense. President Trump and the Administration have taken all necessary steps to protect our forces and remain in close contact with our regional partners. Let me be clear: Iran should not target U.S. interests or personnel.”
– Marco Rubio, US Secretary of State
Since #HalTurner was spot-on about this one, I’ll quote him on the breaking news.
Multiple reports from several countries are saying “hundreds” of fighter jets and drones are in the air over differing parts of Iraq, heading into Iran to attack – right now: 8:13 PM EDT 12-June-2025
#DonaldTrump apparently has decided to attack Iran. Mark this date. It is the beginning of the end of the Trump Presidency. Trump has been persuaded that the Iranian air defense is weak and that a US bombing run will eliminate any chance that Iran can build a nuclear device. He has been a victim of lies. He will shortly discover, if these attacks take place, that Iran retains a significant capability to shoot down US aircraft. In fact, I fully expect Iran will capture and put on display several US air force officers in the next week.
#Simplicius is dubious that Israel or the USA can even reach the #nuclear #sites that #Israel is seeking to destroy: In short, Iran’s underground nuclear infrastructure is now too deep, too complex, and too protected to be taken out militarily.
My take is that Israel is going it alone with the expectation that if #Iran hammers them hard enough and looks like it is winning, #AIPAC will be able to exert enough #pressure on #PresidentTrump to force the #US #military to #intervene and rescue them from the consequences of their own actions.
We should not/cannot scroll past today's news of Israel's latest unprovoked aggressions towards other nations (i.e bombings of residential areas in Iran and Lebanon), along with images of Israel's increasingly horrific attacks on civilians in Gaza and the West Bank.
Witnessing unending waves of crimes against humanity that apartheid Israel is committing deserves a "fuck Israel' at the very least. I know that won't stop this murderous state, but each voice adds to the growing wave of opposition/resistance.
Fuck Israel. Fuck apartheid. Fuck genocide. Fuck unprovoked attacks on sovereign nations. Fuck baby killers. Fuck forced starvation. Fuck state torture. Fuck ethnic cleansing. Fuck settler-colonialism. Fuck racism. Fuck the IOF - past and present. Fuck Israel and their allies.
The various meetings, forums, conferences on the fediverse are wilfully and REPEATEDLY ignoring any requests to discuss the issue of biased admins who shut down anti-genocide voices.

Wie genau wird #KI in Kriegsgebieten eingesetzt? Das #Lavender-Zielsystem der #IDF in #Gaza steht beispielhaft für moderne Kriegsautomatisierung.

"Agentic" AI has Sabine Hossenfelder worried. AI worms? AI prompt injection? AI enabling hackers to find security vulnerabilities? AI emailing law enforcement and the FDA if it doesn't like your line of questioning? AI blackmailing users to prevent itself from being taken offline? AI models exchanging messages of spiritual bliss? Maybe that one wouldn't be so bad.
I just worry that a codebase I work on will get bugs in it I don't know about. Or security holes.
SH is a favorite of mine. A web hero. She is a smart, recognized scientist who does regular videos on many subjects typically with some scientific bent. Always fun, thought-provoking, and iconoclastic.
She has a particular comedic schtick including those goofy phone calls that often poke fun at people and ideas. She sometimes gives you her particular take on some subject as background for what she is about to say. Did those occur here and I missed them?

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Will pray for you. I took a long break from the news to focus on what I can control. What am I being called to do. If I improve my little world, the world is a better place. So I’m working on myself, my family, and public service when God directs, but right now the greatest service I can give to make the world a better place is to Love God, pray for others. To be like Jesus is the only thing worthy of our attention. God is bigger than this world and He owns it.
Despite renewed Qatari involvement in the talks, senior Israeli officials say a hostage deal is still far off, and no understandings to end the war in Gaza have been reached
