I was planning to use it mainly as a workstation, perhaps even running some of my heavier home services that don’t need 24/7 access, but with some gaming on the side. I agree that at least stock the multi core clocks on these are horrible (even the single core isn’t too good), from what I read on Old rig revive about the 2696v3, it can do anywhere from 3-3.8Ghz on multiple cores with a TBU and undervolt. Again, I’m upgrading from a 1650v2, so anything is an improvement.

+1 to that, mindustry is tons of fun and has builds for most devices. I have personally sunk way too much time into it

Nice read! Id always assumed P and E cores were badly supported across windows and linux, but i guess I was wrong

This is so cool you’ve actually inspired me to try out the same thing. Ive just finished setting up port forwarding and got the nginx page, but this has been fun as my first time hosting a website

You can layer packages with rpm-ostree on bazzite tho, which do persist through updates. As far as I know, steam os has no such thing.

I dont think thats really an issue and more so a design choice to keep steam os immutable. I doubt that’ll change since it does make it much harder to break the system.

Unemployed would also include students, or people actively gaining qualifications to eventually get a job.

The branch is ~4.5" in girth and attempting to cut it off could cause discomfort

This is probably naive, but if they know about this, seemingly enough to trace ips and time spent streaming it, how come its so hard for them to block it?

If anyone’s curious this seems to be the policy they have for new apps:

Follow’s Circle’s AI policy: While it is not prohibited to use AI as a learning aid or a development tool (i.e. code completions), app developers should be able to justify and explain the code they submit, within reason. Submissions with large amounts of unnecessary code, inconsistent code style, imaginary API usage, comments serving as LLM prompts, or other indications of AI-generated output will be rejected.

I dont know anything about cursor specifically, but if you REALLY want an ai coding agent for free I guess opencode? You’ve probably seen the other comments on why using one is a bad idea though, especially for a beginner (personally learning go with neovim, its very rewarding).

This is so true, I turned off my extensions and it was actually an enlightening experience. If you’ve been using GNOME for a while, try it.

Most hybrid laptops (AFAIK) have the integrated graphics hard wired to the drive the display, since its always on

You are right. If I had to guess, maybe because bazzite comes with tons of software? Why is it so big actually, most are under 4

The audacity of using… the crap word. Honestly nintendo was different back then.

Using linux has made me excited about updates again, with 6.19 adding gcn 1 support? Literally had just bought an old amd desktop. Thanks linus! (And the guy who actually added it in)

Basically self hosted streaming. If you havent already set it up you’re missing out, choose what content you want to watch, no ads, watch it however you like…

No idea what you’re on about. Mythos is a GAME CHANGER. Completely DESTROYS software security. Thats why we’re going to SAVE THE WORLD by letting our corporate sponsors use it.

How linux works is a great book! Halfway through it right now. I set up immich a while back and as far as I can tell, its almost identical to google photos, and unless you have like a terabyte of photos doesnt need a lot of proccesing power (it will take a while for its first scan, but after that it uses barely anything)

Reminds me of the old clone wars micro series…
