Valve needs to start banning games from their store for retroactively breaking Linux support.
Valve did recently mandate games will have to share if they use Kernel Level Anti-Cheat. If nothing else it allows people to better see what games want to own their systems.
If you play with your friends, the shitty anticheat situation means you may need to keep Windows around.
Highly suggest the new Factorio expansion with friends. Game is a shitload of fun and there is no anti-cheat BS.
I have never found HDR to be helpful. Every time I turn it on it seems to think what I want was not better colors, but for all my colors to be extremely washed out on every screen.
Yeah, I made the switch to Mint recently and have been pleasantly surprised with how much of a non-issue it is. Open steam, hit install, hit play. Game runs.
Only thing I had to do was enable a single checkbox in steam to enable Proton for Windows games: “Enable Steam Play for all titles”
Everything in low earth orbit (LEO) decays and falls back to earth due to drag; as there is a very, very small amount of air there. The starlink satellites are all in LEO.
Space junk is mostly a problem higher up. In the higher orbits, old satellites move themselves to graveyard orbits; places where nobody really wants a satellite.
Personally, I use TVs as a simple screen and watch everything through other devices (Roku, or a Linux PC running MythTV).
This would be my suggestion. Get a mini pc or dongle and use the TV simply as a display. Internet connected TVs are never well supported.
Also, highly suggest disconnecting the TV from the internet. They don’t get security updates and they are notorious for spying on people’s viewing habits.
Of course not, who would put a power button on the back or bottom of the computer? Front, side, or top are the places it goes for almost every computer out there.
As long as no vents are blocked, should work fine. Anything with a fan is orientation agnostic.
but you expect them to disable USB devices waking their computer?
He expects people to turn off their computer when they are done with it, which is a perfectly reasonable thing to expect. Apple is deliberately making it harder to use this computer in a way many people use their computer.
This was the reason they made the API changes. They wanted to charge for easy access to the content. Sure, you can scrape every Reddit page, but nobody has time for that. Pay up and hoover down Reddit comments for you AI training.
Why the hell do they have so many employees in the first place? You don’t need so many people for the few products they offer.
Damn, solid hits!
Sends a damn strong message to Iran as well. That with little left to defend their military assets, they should cut it out with the missile strikes on Israel.
As the country is already in economic turmoil with the national currency collapsing and inflation soaring, many Iranians are increasingly questioning the government’s priorities, feeling the weight of a regime that appears more focused on foreign conflicts than addressing the dire needs at home.
Yep, as another put: it’s the economy, stupid.
It’s the basic building block of keeping domestic peoples happy. Otherwise everyone questions why money and effort is being spent on x, instead of fixing the economy.
Another small win for Right to Repair. While this specific instance isn’t far-reaching, it is part of an overall trend that is increasingly favoring the consumer and small businesses.
Yeah, if you are using an AI for emotional support of any kind, you are in for a bad, bad time.
B&H and Home Depot have been two solid services for things they sell. Former is computers and photography. Both of them ship pretty damn fast.
Honestly, what convinced me to start using them was how increasingly difficult it is to get quality items on Amazon. Sifting through garbage gets old fast.
This happened in the UK recently as well.
