I’m also in the desktop camp. But I just purchased a Framework 16. The upgradable dGPU (assuming they release new ones) might make laptops more viable for gaming.

Good news, It’s coming out on PC.

As someone who owns an LG C1, not a single DP in sight.

Not surprisingly, North Korea’s Red Star OS has a closed source fork of KDE.

As far as I’m aware, the Chromecast 4K does not support AV1. The newer Chromecast TV does but does not support 4K. So atm you have to pick between 4K or AV1.

Is it Hell Let Loose? I started playing it since they support Linux now, very well done Battlefield-like game. I haven’t played much BF since 1942.

If you’re not just being facetious, https://areweanticheatyet.com/ is a good source.

According to them ~58% of anti-cheat games work. There’s been a large uptick of anti-cheat support since the Steam Deck.

According to ProtonDB, 86% of the top 1000 games on Steam function (Silver+ rating). It’s a pretty safe bet that the most of the missing 14% is probably due to anti-cheat.

There’s software that can do this for you as well. I pass both input and output over the network with no noticeable latency (via ehernet).

If you’re using Linux and pipe wire, this is supported out of the box:

pactl load-module module-native-protocol-tcp port=4656 listen=IPADDRESS

pactl load-module module-tunnel-sink server=IPADDRESS tcp::4656

They’re other methods on different OS’s, this is just what I use.

Go to a library, some have scanners with feeders that will scan to a flash drive.

Yes it doesn’t involve carbon capture, I was just replying to the comment that shipping needs carbon capture because of the fuel it uses. You don’t need carbon capture if you change the fuel source which is entirely feasible for shipping.

What? Green hydrogen seems very likely as an alternative for shipping.

I think air/spacecraft are the harder problems to solve.

“Sure, you can do everything it does with a phone”

No, you can’t do everything with a phone. A phone doesn’t have the same radios, GPIO for expandability, IR transceiver, etc. Not to mention the radios a phone does have doesn’t like it when you start forcing it to do fun things.

I think it’s a bit of an unfair comparison because rental places had more overhead. Location, employees, physical media purchases/storage, etc etc

I’m not sure what definition of UBI you’re using, but not all forms of UBI need to cover the entirety of living expenses. UBI is just having income without strings attached. This very study is showing that even small amounts of money can help people get out of shitty situations.

Also as someone who lives in Dever, it’s not that expensive. Sure $1500+ is what you’ll pay around LoDo, but there are plenty of cheaper places.

A solid that isn’t undergoing any sort of chemical reaction isn’t going to smell because there isn’t anything to smell. You need a molecule to enter your nose to smell. That’s my basic understanding, someone smarter than I can explain it better.

Also I’m not sure any country still uses iron for coins.

I agree with the other posters, your hardware is going to hold you back. But you could try switching to a lighter desktop environment like LXDE instead of GNOME. This user found a small increase in performance: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/dg87jp/does_the_desktop_environment_matter_for_gaming/

But they had somewhat beefy hardware. If you’re truly at the limit of your specs, 100% CPU/RAM usage, your performance increase could be even more.

Does it? Los Angeles looks worse than New York City while having less than half the people. I imagine it’s going to correlate more with amount of cars and distance cars drive.

No? Set termostat to a lower temp in the winter so the heater doesn’t stay on as long. Higher temp in the summer so the AC doesn’t stay on.

Another reason to keep it closer to the outdoor temp is clothing. I loathe places in the winter that have the heat cranked up, I dressed for the cold, I don’t want to melt because businesses crank the heat up to 80F for some reason. Same with the summer, I’m shivering cause I dressed for 90F but inside is in the high 60’s.
