It’s a three thousand dollar monitor, what did they expect?

Wild that he drops this video right after I had a conversation with a friend all about this. Now I don’t have to explain how Microsoft has been handicapping ARM for years.

I demoed a system that let you input construction plans and walk around/ interact with ar wires/plumbing/walls once. But it was so cumbersome to implement it was more like a neat tech demo.

Maybe once the tech is small enough to fit inside safety glasses…

This is the frustrating part of it. The public doesn’t understand what’s actually happening, or what the goal of these large language models is, so because they’re very convincing conversationalists, your average Joe considers them as true AI.

My issue is, aside from gaming, I’m not interacting with the content or data in any meaningful, improved way.

VR for real life is just a series of flat two dimensional screens, usually with a novelty background of a waterfall.

Right now my phone gives me the option if RCS fails for some reason, to send the message again with SMS. I assume that will be the case here as well.

I’m using nobara right now, but somewhere over the last year my bluetooth has stopped working.
This has led me down the road of a reinstall, nobara had been great for gaming but now that I’m looking at spending more time developing I’m also looking at an immutable os. There has been some really enlightening discussion here.

Bittorrent is nice for getting isos, but it would pul my hair out if I tried to download patches with it.

I have a dual boot partition, but honestly the games that don’t run are so few and far between that I really don’t bother…

It’s like if you bought a Playstation, how do you play Xbox games? Unless it’s really worth it, you just don’t.

They’re very inconsistent. I’ve had an x360 since 2020 and, aside from the hinge being weak, it’s still going. I’m also pretty careless with my equipment. My wife uses it now.

But then, I’ve seen more than one like yours that has seemed to evaporate like a cheap t-shirt.

Ive been 100% linux since 2016, and while there are some pain points, the games that work, work amazingly well.

I have epic games, gog, steam games all working through launchers that work pretty perfectly. The biggest pain points are developers with intrusive anticheats.

Check the games you/your friends play against protondb.com or areweanticheatyet.com before committing yourself.

If it is not sensitive data, and you’re okay being morally objectionable, you can buy a large hard drive from some place with a good return policy, transfer your data to it, format/repartition your drive, transfer everything back and return the hdd for a 15% stocking fee.

I use fedora on my thinkbook with Gnome/PaperWM and my upgrade experience was ezpz.

Rabble. It’s themed with my other devices, Pibble, Pabble, and Ribble.

Look at them, embracing open source like this, how wonderful.

I’m not sure I need to onion my torrents. I feel like routing through a decent VPN is probably good enough. I guess if I had all night to transfer a 5MB PDF document that was going to collapse a government this would be what I’d use?

“It’s a Rust based…” You son of a bitch, I’m in.

The 8gb ram MacBook works great for your average Mac user. The person who uses it for writing resumes and surfing YouTube which I’m sure is a huge chunk of the market. Devs/Gamers/power users can’t make do with 8gb, but my sister in law who just does paper work and teams meetings all day is served well by her 2016 laptop, and wouldn’t have any issue with an 8gb MacBook.

My dude, never mess with work equipment. Own up to your mistakes with the IT department, and they can fix it on their end.

It’s a requirement for my Business Comms course to use Word, to the point where the prof will walk around to ensure you have Word open. The online version is awful and often drops sentences when I type so I dont use it. I could never get the darn thing working over WINE or Cassowary, so I have a VM that basically just runs that.
