Just out of curiosity I just started building the Linux kernel to see what my system does, but the CPU isn't going over 10% load and is hovering around 40 degrees. I just ran make without any parameters, is there a way to get it to use more than a single cpu core at a time?

Everything below 90 is cool.

It can't reach 100C, it's a 10 year old Core i3 🤷 😂.

Yeah, some dust maybe, but other than that, they still work like a caharm 😂.

That's nothing. My laptop regularly reaches 100C doing basic gaming lol.

Not sure if the pun is intended (steam).

Is this a Linux kernel 6.66 joke?
0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 2y
No, the 66°C was just a coincidence 😂.

Maybe we'll discover Gentoo is emitting as much CO2 as China

It's Void, but still 😂.

Time to test out that 8 year old thermal paste!
0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 2y
It's actually 11 years old 😬, but I changed it a few years ago ☺️.

makewithout any parameters, is there a way to get it to use more than a single cpu core at a time?Edit: Now we're cooking.
make -j$(nproc)99% CPU utilization at 56 degrees.

Such an understatement for 56C 😒.

I use a DeepCool AK620 CPU cooler.

Oh, good, a sane person that uses air cooling.
I have a BeQuiet one on my desktop... can't remember the model though 😁.
callyral@pawb.social · 1 pts · 2y
my laptop is at 56°C idle, then again it is summer here
edit: the moment i went to check it is now at 47°C with the browser open. maybe it was reporting the wrong temperature or it's just cooler today
eager_eagle@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 2y
winter is hitting hard on some parts, I see
0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 2y
lol 🤣🤣🤣, yeah, I had the window open 🤣.

You need some cooling sir
0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 2y
I need to take this thing apart and blow the dust from the fan 😂.
possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip · 4 pts · 2y
You might want to replace your thermal paste as well.
0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 2y
Yeah, of course, no way I'm assembling it with the old thermal paste 👍.

Also when you do x265 encodes 🥲.

What are you compiling?
0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 2y
yt-dlg. It's wxPython based, so it takes A LOT of time and CPU power... or maybe my laptop is just old 😂.
