Sadly that era of the vehicle industry is gone. Even if we completely forget electric vehicles, getting parts for any car is becoming harder, because the manufacturer is trying to sell you assembled bundles of things, rather than individual items.

But then we have electric cars. Swapping the battery in these is insanely costly, and if you need other repairs, brands like Tesla would purposefully go out of their way to ensure you only replace things at Tesla certified shops

Isn’t that the entire point behind what most business people do? The whole goal is to upsell some schmuck by speaking too fast, and mentioning a lot of words that don’t really mean anything. Except the difference now is that the business person in this case is the leadership behind most of the tech industry

I got two identical 64gb sticks. One's for a Ventoy setup with a bunch of different ISOs, in case anything has to be done and/or recovered. The other just has occasional random files i might need

When you're a delusional conspiracy theorists, anything is a direct attack on whatever you're delusional about at the time. Trying to rationalize their train of thought is impossible

Sounds like the chase for infinitely profitable growth ain't going that great for them

Finally some good news out of Bethesda

If anything, i would expect packagekit frontends to break. If you use pacman as intended, you’ll be just fine

Piracy is always a service issue

Not what I meant. I've reworded the original post to clarify

Both of them have their own issues, but historically, Nvidia have been considerably worse, because they not only required a proprietary driver, but also adamantly refused to support certain features, crippling the functionality of a lot of compositors.

Today, I'm having zero issues with an Nvidia card, on Kwin/Wayland. Everything that runs in native Wayland runs flawlessly. Games through Xwayland run great too, now that explicit sync is actually there.

Worth noting that I don't have a VRR display, and don't have a card that supports frame generation. The latter just is not implemented at all, and the I've heard there are issues with the former

Why do we live in a dystopian hellscape

Gotta keep the capitalist machine working while the pump and dump scheme is still functional

Same here. No matter how many you block, or mark not interested, it just doesn’t stop

Loved the first game! Good to see they're making a new one

The update ecosystem is still continuously being crippled by both the device vendors, and for some fucking reason, the carriers

It's a monumentally stupid idea to run this. Minor performance gains, at a cost of crippling an already insecure operating system

I deeply miss my atomic purple GBC, so for the price and overall quality of this, this definitely looks like an awesome replacement. I’d love to get one eventually

Obviously it’s not, but you have to download all this shit somewhere before compilation. That’s the whole point

I really didn’t like this either. It’s quite surprising, because the rest of Go tooling is quite nice. Not having a venv, or at least something like pnpm-style node_modules is weird

Microsoft won't stop me from continuing to not use Windows
