  • I don't need it

    I don't need it

    I neeeeeed it.

  • Was there ever like an actual plot to this show? I only watched a handful of episodes and never understood what was actually happening here.

  • Tyler McVicker talks about this in one of his more recent videos, from the last week or so. IIRC, the hardware is nearly identical to Steam Deck, but slightly faster so it can handle higher resolutions.

  • Watch SadlyItsBradley and TylerMcVicker on YouTube, these are the guys who actually datamine SteamVR and SteamOS for themselves. They're both saying Steam Deck 2 is not currently in development. Valve's current thing is more likely a console-like machine running slightly more powerful hardware, plus Valve's upcoming VR headset. A prototype of this console actually showed up in the background of "The Final Hours of Half Life: Alyx".

  • I wouldn't be opposed to 128GB if the price made sense for it. I'm only using 64GB on my current phone, and it also had 128GB.

  • Thinking about trading in my P4a for a P8, was offered $200 off if I did. Should I pull the trigger or do you all think Black Friday will have a better deal?

    Then I thought of a crazy scheme: trade in my 4a so the P8 is $500 instead of $700, then accept the free Pixel Buds Pro offer and resell them so it's ~$300 instead.

  • I'd like to hear the story of how we found out.

  • That's not the Musk space debris we should be concerned about. The car is orbiting the Sun between Earth and Mars, extremely unlikely to be a problem for anyone. A needle in a planet full of haystacks.

    Starlink, on the other hand, is several hundreds of satellites orbiting in a shell in low Earth orbit. Close calls happen all the time with these.

  • All of them!

    Linux and Linux distros are generally designed to be hardware-agnostic, and generally works just fine on very old components. I'm currently running the current version of Ubuntu on a used U1 server from ~2013, no issues, no headaches. It just works. Grab any Windows PC from the last 20 years, you won't have any compatibility issues running most Linux distros, though some distros might expect more performance. Linux Mint is fairly lightweight.

  • Oh yeah, its absolutely not a huge deal if you already have a chromebook and just want to keep using it. But if I'm buying a new laptop and I know that putting another OS on it will be unnecessarily difficult, I'm just going to pick a different laptop.

  • Possible != easy. Putting Linux on any old Windows PC is dead easy, takes not even half an hour. Linux on a Chromebook? Easily hour+ long headache on your first time.

  • It doesn't happen much. But in a language with more boilerplate, like Java, it can happen very rarely.

  • Unless you can easily upgrade the RAM, Storage, and replace the OS when it loses support, it's still ewaste.

    Yes, installing Linux is possible, but it isn't easy. I put GalliumOS on my old high school Chromebook.

  • I'd imagine lots of professions get this. Basically any ofession with lots of repeated text. I've gotten this a couple times while programming.

  • I believe they meant that bluetooth headphones need to be charged, while wired ones just run off the phone's battery. Sure, the amount of power consumed might not be that different (though bluetooth will still be more), but its easier for the user to just charge one device.

  • That last bit is important here. Ops, Security, and Engineering all wore red shirts. If you break down redshirt deaths by division, almost all of them are Security, while few are Engineering or Ops. Since Security is a position likely to involve combat, it shouldn't be surprising if it's the most dangerous.

  • I've probably gotten it at least once, since most people are asymptomatic. I've never had symptoms and never tested positive. Still, I feel like there's a good chance I just got it and it was never detected.

  • Q. No question.

  • Moopsy wins. Section 31 tried to use them to win the Dominion War, but their agents kept getting killed by them.
