Other than battery optimizations pretty much all of the issues don’t exist on something like a Raspberry Pi which is RISC architecture (Broadcom chips). Sounds like Qualcomm just doesn’t have their shit together.

Probably hundreds of movies show all the ways making humanoid robots can go wrong. Why the hell does anyone think it’s still a good idea to make robots that are significantly stronger than humans?

I’ve been on Bazzite for a while now and it’s almost boring how stable it is.

I agree it’s a potential drawback for people that like tinkering. It kind of turns your computer into a very flexible gaming console.

As an experienced Linux user I’ll say immutable Fedora (Bazzite) is the most stable OS I’ve ever used. Had to do a rollback maybe once, because of bad pkg layering, which they discourage, never had a pkg conflict on upgrade, everything installs and uninstalls cleanly (with flatpak or brew), and there’s been maybe one, very uncommon, use-case I thought the OS wasn’t up to doing.

I’ve never used Mint but I’m guessing its ease-of-use is mainly due to maintenance and configuration being done largely through the UI. Immutable distros tend to be UI heavy as well because approaching problems the traditional way (through CLI) are more likely to have you edit the read only sections of the filesystem.

Immutable or not I think most casual users will be safe if they don’t use the terminal.

They fucked up by making their robots last seemingly forever, due to the fact they spy on you and get stuck every 15 mins so you never want to turn them on.

Li-ion is fine but it should’ve been removable. The wireless Xbox controller was great how it let you swap the pack and keep going.

I think the site had me locked into the EU before. Never saw an option to switch until now.

957? Their site says 769€ which is about $893. Buying directly from Shift looks even cheaper but then I assume you have to install Iode yourself. If there was any guarantee of support for the hardware (e.g. availability of replacement parts) then it might be worth it to pay ~$900 for a phone that could last 6+ years.

What about multiple Pis? Seriously asking. I love having a Pi as a dedicated server (small footprint, low energy, low temp). Do I really need to switch to a more traditional ITX/ATX form factor to get real reliability?

I’m just glad they have dual thumbsticks now. I bought their last model on sale but quickly shelved it. Couldn’t get used to the touchpads and didn’t want to spend the next 2 months sucking at every game I played.

Obligatory fuck Spotify!

Also 2FA. You’ll still want to change passwords but it buys you time.

Unrelated to this update but maybe related to Proton, I got a message before loading one of my games today DX9 was out of date. I’m guessing when that happens there’s nothing I can do except update Proton?

Let’s be honest, not all races are equal<br> 🫲🍊🫱

Funny. My Jellyfin instance is working fine. 😏

Be aware you might have to resort to nftables if firewalld doesn’t work. I use localhost a lot and the routing rules are different in that case.

Please stop! I can only love my Linux machines so much!

We also can’t be bothered not to use their shitty tech. From the moment I wanted a Gmail replacement to the moment I signed up for a new service was like 6 months.
