Build Mesa from git and libdrm git for Debian. amdgpu build 64-bit and 32-bit for Debian stable, testing and unstable, and possibly Ubuntu, Mint, PopOS, etc. No root required. (well sudo to install some build dependencies required tho). Currently a bit borked on Debian stable (requires newer meson).
#!/usr/bin/env python3
# A simple script to build 64-bit and 32-bit Mesa and libdrm on amd64 Debian
# stable, Debian testing, Debian unstable, and possibly some Ubuntu versions
# with some tweaks.
#
# libdrm is build too, because often version right now in Debian sid and experimental
# is too old for current mesa git repo. Also it is nice to build debug
# versions of libdrm when troubleshooting some crashes and bugs.

Enable High Quality mode on your headphones (Updated for macOS Catalina)

If you're using a high-end bluetooth headset on your Macbook Pro it's likely your mac is using an audio codec which favors battery efficiency over high quality. This results in a drastic degradation of sound, the SBC codec is the likely culprit, read more about it here.

Find out what codec you're using

  1. Play a song on your headphones
  2. Option (⌥) click the Bluetooth button at the top of your screen Inspect the Bluetooth Coded
  3. If you're using AAC or aptX, you can stop here—those are the highest quality codecs.

Change your codec to AAC or aptX

MozLz4a compression/decompression utility
#!/usr/bin/env python
#
# Decompressor/compressor for files in Mozilla's "mozLz4" format. Firefox uses this file format to
# compress e. g. bookmark backups (*.jsonlz4).
#
# This file format is in fact just plain LZ4 data with a custom header (magic number [8 bytes] and
# uncompressed file size [4 bytes, little endian]).
#
# This Python 3 script requires the LZ4 bindings for Python, see: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/lz4

How to install gnu sed on Mac OS X and set it as the default

# The version that ships with Mac OS X is
# /usr/bin/sed
which sed
# Install gnu-sed using Homebrew
# The `--with-default-names` option configures `sed` to use gnu-sed
# Without that option, you'll need to type `gsed` to use gnu-sed
brew install --default-names gnu-sed
