Same, looks like I’m not part of that 90% either, only 4 years account age here.

But when would you buy a computer monitor for netflix and NOT have something with access to netflix to plug into it? If they didnt have anything with netflix and wanted it built-in then why did they buy a monitor and not a TV?

Exactly, so why would a PC Monitor need to have it’s own Netflix? The PC already has it.

There are “two-way” remote start kits that have a display on the fob to report back AC state, engine remaining run time, and door lock state. It also helps for making sure the button you pressed actually reached the car.

For one thing they were so obsessed with security as a concept devleoping it that they completely ignored the use case of screen-readers for the visually impaired and prevent apps from accessing text from other apps and as far as I know it is still an issue.

To be fair powershell is more recent and windows has always used the control panel for most configuration, they are kind of rug pulling everyone who learned to use it and there arent clear terminal alternatives, for instance, how do I calibrate a game controller’s axis with the terminal?

This isnt even the only iron battery chemistry! The one in the article is Iron-air but you can also do Iron-Iron

Oh, didnt know that was posted, some of the tests seem to be different from last time, it hasnt regressed but hasnt improved much yet either (from the ones that were the same). It does seem to have pulled ahead of BTRFS since the last test, doubling score in the DBench test, but it still varies a lot compared to the other filesystems it seems, doing worse pretty regularly.

That’s fair, it has changed a bit since then and I’m hoping we get another filesystem benchmark to see if it has improved, and the caching features might offset that on frequently used data, but I don’t know how hard that would be to benchmark.

In my use it has been pretty stable so far with 7 disks participating (3 caching SSDs, 4 mechanical disks, with 3 copies of metadata and 2 of data), but I’m not using the more experimental features like erasure coding, I will note the on-disk-format has changed twice since it has been in the kernel, and it hasnt been there long, but it has succeeded both on-disk-format upgrades without obvious data loss, and it recently got self healing for some checksum errors, Id say its probably ready for use if the data is backed up, replaceable, or can be gone without (so for me games are all I have that fits this). Otherwise I would use caution if you use it, but I am very optimistic about the future of the FS, as Kent Overstreet (the creator) has taken a lot of care with it.

I use bcachefs for my games, I like that it lets me have multiple disks with redundant data copies, plus ssd caching of frequently accessed files, this fs is linux specific for now as far as I know, and is still experimental. I use ext4 for everything else, and FAT32 for flash drives.

I envision it like AT&T’s break-up, where the singular Google is broken up into regional companies that will (hopefully) have to compete with each other.

to be fair, the documentation that came with products used to be alot better, Ive had plenty of “manuals” come with products now that just say how to start the device and follow a setup wizard.

Mainly the snap client doesnt let you configure a secondary source, and ubuntu’s repo doesn’t have a good track record of not providing malware.

Iirc they added raid1c3 raid1c4 etc to make raid 1 work with more copies.

This is true, but for idtech 3 and 4 games there were official Linux binaries, but they arent distributed by platforms like steam, even though they already ship Linux versions of other games. Quake 4 or Doom 3 was I think the last of the official Linux binaries from Id.

As you mentioned Ubuntu’s Night light, f.lux, and Redshift all work more like a color temperature adjust than like a red only mode, I found some people mentioning if you are running X you can use xcalib to set the color channels individually, but couldnt find a tool for it, not entirely sure wine would make that function work correctly but it is worth a shot, as for wine, if the version in the package manager isnt new enough there is also a PPA for Ubuntu for more recent wine versions, but I havent used those in a long time and cant strongly advise them, YMMV in installing them and keeping the system working long term, but I was always the sort with too many PPAs so I switched to arch to not deal with that.

If it isvalready equipped with an Intel WiFi card you should be good out of the box. Glad I could help!

Do want to add, on the CF-30 when I replaced the WiFi card with a newer Intel card I had to shave off the power control mini pcie pin so that the BIOS whitelist couldnt deactivate it, no clue if they still whitelist WiFi cards in newer models or the CF-33.

No experience with the CF-33, but I did use a CF-30 and as far as I could tell, outside the WiFi (back when drivers for that were a problem) everything on it worked out of the box, never had any accessories that plugged into the more proprietary connectors but everything I ever plugged in worked, including RS-232
