  • Idk maybe a facehugger from Aliens?

  • I just jumped dw the force will reverberate.

  • I think the current status-quo of devices like laptops is unsustainable. For example just because the CPU is a bit slow doesn't mean the RAM, GPU (If Applicable), PSU, Motherboard, I/O Ports, Display, Speakers, Camera, Keyboard, Trackpad etc should go too. The way it's currently done is so incredibly wasteful and peak capitalist (Hi Apple 🫠).

    So I'm 100% on board with Framework's goal and, if it is financially feasible, you should go with them. Software is infinite, hardware is not. But if Framework's is a bit too steep then I'd go with someone like System76 just because I don't want to fuel the fire of Big Tech.

  • According to Wikipedia there was a squib load in the barrel, which was then pushed out by a blank round. So he was effectively shot, but the blank pushed out a bullet that was lodged in the barrel.

  • Even if the gun was loaded with a blank, at any distance where she can be the one holding it (assuming it's aimed at her) a blank would still do serious damage. When a blank is fired, solid propellant typically is ejected as well as ignited propellant and metal shavings. Too close and a blank is almost like birdshot.

  • Inputs to the driver probably.

  • Well Freesync is probably a bit more complicated to implement than FSR 3 considering the scope, Freesync works in-games and in the desktop so I imagine the display server and compositor need to support it. To me FSR 3 seems nothing more than a driver update and a new version of wine / proton.

  • Yeah good point, I forgot about the Steamdeck. So AMD themselves will probably make an effort to get it working then.

  • You can get the idea.

  • We're not Reddit, we're not the "front page of the internet", whatever the chuck that means, so why does it matter?

  • I can't unsee it

  • I like GRUB, it's what I've always used and it's never failed me. I don't like messing around with bootloader stuff for reasons like this. If I was only using 1 OS then yeah I'd probably use efibootmgr or something and just have it jump straight in.

  • It is good fun if you're really into Linux, I practically jumped out my seat when I crossed my fingers, rebooted and GRUB came up with Gentoo listed.

  • I'm putting it on my hardware as we speak, we'll see :D

  • Oh right, thanks I wasn't sure I just knew they made some deal with Microsoft

  • I'm using Startpage, and I also have a self-hosted Adguard DNS on my network so that helps a bit too.

  • I think they got bought out by Microsoft or something, so naturally people are weary of it now.

  • How exactly? On idle Gentoo uses almost no resouces comapred to Windows 11 for example. If you're on about needing to compile every package, then think how often is someone actually installing a new package and for how long is the processor working to do that? Also on a binary distro, then large servers are used to compile every last package, no matter how big or small, in that distro's repos, then more machines are used to provide those binaries to the users.

    The whole pipeline for Gentoo is much simpler, the end user's system is a lot simpler and uses far less resources.
