yeah i guess but wouldn’t you need a usb a to c adapter and a powered usb hub and a external power supply?

or are keyboards power efficient enough that you don’t need one?

I’m dumb, it was prolly running on my i7-3632qm because cycles needs dGPUs for gpu acceleration

it’s still a 12yo processor though

cycles is hilariously usable on weak hardware (though faster hardware is definitely desirable), I tried it on my Intel hd4000 and it somehow works

wireless keyboards? a good wireless keyboard is more expensive than old thinkpads in my region ._.

Linux on the other hand gained a lot of exp()

the wiki download thing is so nice

typing on phones are so painful…

buy a $50 thinkpad and spare yourself from the pain

shit has the same or better level of infrastructure for a smaller user base

tried pmos with plasma mobile but the browsers were buggy because of my SOC having bad graphics acceleration support in the mainline kernel

chromium is still ‘libre’ though, so I don’t think that’s enough

“chrome was hogging up my ram” is the dumbest part of all of this lmao, this person’s decisionmaking is completely driven by placebo and it’s hilarious

does ddg not have its own search backend anymore?

you won’t need a dedicated monitor if you use Looking Glass

the fuse popped, right?

i mean it’s in the name:
FEDiverse

free and open not free open

passive/active are just 2 modes you can select between and active is simply better so for me there’s literally 0 problems

scrcpy?

afaik it’s just the msi pro -a z690/z790 boards

yeah i play ksp and rainworld with coreboot+disabled ME thinkpad t430 and it’s fine (coreboot has no performance penalties)

the only thing coreboot broke in my instance was the passive (cpufreq) powersave cpu scaler for my cpu, but I could just switch to the active (intel_pstate) powersave cpu scaler which is better anyway

are there modern desktop motherboards/chipsets/bioses that let you disable ME though? the z690/z790 are the only ones that I know can run coreboot (ignoring laptop motherboards), but I thought that still had to run ME?
