cpupower

I’ve been reading the Red Hat System Administration I course material and came across an interesting utility: cpupower!

You can use it to view your CPU frequency and set the range it can operate in: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/6/html/power_management_guide/tuning_cpufreq_policy_and_speed

Here’s me making my laptop CPU slower 🙂

$ cpupower frequency-info
analyzing CPU 0:
...
current CPU frequency: 2.73 GHz (asserted by call to kernel)
...

$ sudo cpupower frequency-set -u 400000
Setting cpu: 0
...

$ cpupower frequency-info

Happy Saturday

Hello again, it’s been a minute.

San Francisco continues to be a quiet place during the pandemic. Even those of us that prefer to stay indoors are becoming antsy.

I’ve been learning and practicing Esperanto, Haskell, Music Theory. It’s progressing and I have hope (Äœi progresas kaj mi havas esperon).

A new version of the the v.systems rewards library is out. It’s starting to look pretty good! Github: https://github.com/belovachap/pyvsystems_rewards, PyPi: https://pypi.org/project/pyvsystems-rewards/.

Work continues on https://www.suprizi.com and https://www.tricky.wiki.

Have fun. Do good work.

Happy Wednesday

Wednesday will probably look a lot like Tuesday. San Francisco is mostly socially distancing; some people are not changing their activities.

I put an initial prototype of a “gift guessing game” on the web: https://www.suprizi.com/. Needs polish and code to do something more clever than randomly present questions and gift ideas… will come back to it.

I’m also working on more detailed reports for Peercoin’s v.systems supernode. The reporting programs are gathering in: https://github.com/belovachap/pyvsystems_reports and should help me write better tests in the rewards library: https://github.com/belovachap/pyvsystems_rewards.
