i just got my first amd/ati hardware and it was nice not having to take an extra step to reviewi/set-up better nvidia support; the best available was automatically provided like the article says.

With the great upstream support for AMD Radeon graphics in the Linux kernel and Mesa, most desktop users / gamers / enthusiasts are best off just using the latest code shipped by their distributions

it got so bad for me in the past, that i just avoided nvidia the last 2 times i bought hardware.

it’s impressive how much work they put into that video; they deserve it.

Politics influences every single aspect of everyone’s life and is the core reason why Windows is so dominant on the desktop despite there being a significantly better alternatives w Linux.

Microsoft have long-demonstrated they could reach out the computer monitor and slap every user around a bit with a large trout, and still keep 95% of their user base.

so too can the democrats w their base. lol

i’ve used liberapay to support lemmy and now that i know it can do this, i’m going to see if it can do the other project work i also use heavily; thanks for making me aware.

gnome-tweaks used to be able to do this, but not anymore.

which one do you know about?

These are all important information to have at a glance, in my opinion. If you don’t think so, you can remove it. Simple as.

it would be better if you could autohide it. especially for low res screens like mine.

i did a post on it’s networking & storage services on this post a while ago.

tldr:

• security cameras using an ip webcam apps on old androids combined w the motion project
• internet accessible backup storage for laptops and internet accounts (eg google)
• wifi access point & router
• pfsense firewall
• ad blocking
• media server
• vpn
• proxy

it’s made from old hardware that i had laying around and its 2nd motherboard died a couple of weeks ago. i was investigating how i could use a spare laptop motherboard to run it until i saw this post and now i’m looking into using one of my old androids instead since they’re still functional. also: i’ve been meaning to try my hand at something like graphene on them and this gives me a great impetus to do so since i’m currently using a 20-year old backup router for the time being. thanks for making me aware that’s it’s a thing!

my everything server recently died and i’ve got a bunch of old androids that i was using as security cameras. plus this sounds like fun. lol

yes and that’s why i said europe and not the eu

try saying that you support palestine action publicly in the uk. lol

i got to jump back in recently w a new laptop that came w windows.

i’ve been buying linux first hardware for the last decade and going through this exercise has been eye opening for; i wasn’t aware of much the landscape has changed.

We dont even know their names.

that’s surprising to learn since the likes of farage, le pen have & hocke heavily influencing politics in the uk, france & germinay and meloni winning her election in italy.

it’s not that they’re ignoring it; is that the legistlation doesn’t address buying it from non-government agencies and probably on purpose.

our billionaires are also funding the protests again them; one of the walmart heirs is entire responsible for the noking protests.

that’s fair. lol

I’m surprised that they kept the “Steam Machine” name. I thought they would choose a different name to avoid any negative connotations. It is a very cool name though.

what negative connotations exsit for “steam machine”

the europeans on lemmy continue to insist that americans are ahead of the fascism game; but we still don’t have chat control and have only elected one fascist so far. lol

now that i think of it, i’m technically one of them since i still play age of empires 2

it makes you wonder why valve is pursuing it; are there enough people still playing these old games to justify a profit from the endeavor?
