I think Im starting to realize why these 10%> distros are where they are. Every time I go out to try something like OpenSUSE or Fedora it is always the same kind of issues. This 0 hour "what the hell, why cant I find a basic thing" questions that come up even well into being an advanced user.
The Debian and Arch sphere are well deserved to be having the largest share these days. I guess I made a mistake throwing off Debian every time just because I wanted something "cooler".
Thats it. That is indeed THE main issue (or ballpark of issues) of Fedora. Like it should actually be needed to get fixed to get somewhere.
I'll give you that, documentation compared to the Arch wiki is not as comprehensive; nothing's as comprehensive as the Arch wiki lol
I linked the wiki page, that does not adhere to the meaning to documentation in any way shape or form.
If i'm installing a basic Fedora desktop, i'm going to their website, downloading the default ISO, and installing the default Gnome desktop. That has xorg and wayland and display drivers and all the things you need to get it running on pretty much any hardware. If i don't want Gnome i'll use an ISO with a different desktop, still get wayland and xorg with the default install.
I installed with the netinstall image and ticked the meta group meant to be made for a collection few Window Managers you want installed. It failed to install Xorg.
If you're installing Fedora from the minimal install and then building the desktop (or window manager, maybe you use i3 or openbox) up from scratch like you would in Arch, you're going about it the wrong way. You can go this route but i'm not surprised you'd run into some issues there and have to solve for missing packages (as you would in Arch too, though the Arch Wiki is much more helpful with this type of install).
I didnt want to build it up from scratch, I was only missing Xorg that I expected to be installed. I didnt even understand why it would not be installed for a Group containing X11 based WM.
Even if we argue that it should not be built from ground up, not having any way of knowing that base-x contains all the Xorg packages means that the distro lacks basic debugging capabilities if something does go haywire. But I wont go further into this because it would be ridiculous to debate this. It was a thing on every single distro 30 years ago!
Im ready for it not being as easily managable as Arch if I want to "customize".
I didnt mean to imply it has no Arch-like documentation, I said it has NO documentation. Even wayland is arguably missing basic documentation other than a todo page and a basic short explanation.
Let me put it in perspective: You install a basic desktop. Xorg wont get installed even for a "Windows managers" group where most of the WMs are xorg based. And then I have to find how to get all the xorg packages without all the functionality that was meant to provide the needed info.
Whatever defaults or saneness it has, I just find these inexcusable faults. Im having a really hard time understanding why it would be preferred like that and I can get no answers. Neither I do for similar issues when I try something like say OpenSUSE. I kind of want to find out whether Im actually wrong.
They (allegedly temporarily) removed the software and the required server-side service to unlock the EOL Zenfone 8 (and all other phones for that matter) to install custom ROM.
Asus is walking a very thin line here including the recent motherboard BIOS fiasco.
On the other hand I have my zenfone 8 now, and it has been perfectly good for over 2 years now.
Even that might work. Higher end boards are often made for up to 600ohm headphones. If in doubt, search for your specific board/chip whether it has the power.
I barely found x1s (more of OG X1) for some reason, my bad. It is indeed a headphone that exists xd. I mostly seen X2HR reviews and most users are relatively satisfied. I think the 2 main caveats are that:
Detail is not that good.
Bass is boomy.
So if you are looking for tighter bass or more detailed sound, no, you wont really get that much more out of it with better equipment. It is an old headphone and the driver is low impedance, this is most they could bring out of it in those days.
Want better sound? You absolutely can get multitudes of better sound quality with your current DAC/AMP and newer headphones. You can get any kind of not too hard to drive piece of hardware and it will keep scaling without extra equipment. Yes you can get even better with a better DAC, but even I kept myself out of buying one even though I have audiophile equipment.
Im using a chinese 50 dollar motherboard that is for e5 v3 CPU. Even that is kind of acceptable though not preferred. And a headphone jack.
Its not the most basic chip on your mobo, but one that higher budget mobos get. You will be fine with it. You almost surely dont need an external AMP for that headphone.
Buy a new set of headphones on that price, that might tickle your balls.
I went balls deep with an ASUS x670 gene board so bought an 7950x3d. Havent received it so not sure what to expect.
In my logic the most important part is essentially whether you are getting a good enough AM5 motherboard and enough RAM to not have to swap them. Having power for a possibly larger power consumption next gen CPU and PCIe 5 x16+M.2 are important for longevity.
Once you are at am5 EOL, the TOTL might be a 32 core CPU. If you have all the newest gen PCIe, your setup might live a loong life even into newer generations. Otherwise you might be unsatisfied and make a new build sooner than later.
Shouldnt even talk about it. We all know it is redundant. It is so redundant of you to tell us.
