This is like asking, "why do you need a touch screen or internet on a phone in the first place? Neither are needed to make phone calls. Isn't a phone just fine as a standalone thin…

Almost all the games I play are these random multiplayer games with friends. In my experience, proton is only a blocker around 5% of the time. I still have a windows partition for …

That was my position 5 years ago. For the last 3ish years I've been gaming on Linux with very few issues. I'll be the first to say it's not perfect, but it's 100x better than it wa…

Also, afaik, there's no reason for hobbyists to not always use lead-free solder. But of course that doesn't mean something you're taking apart used lead free.

I think when you say "why do you need to ____?" you think you're saying "what are you trying to do, and maybe there's another way to accomplish that", but what everyone hears is "y…

As someone who has been running de-googled android for years, I don't identify with any of your complaints. Good luck leaving that walled garden by going to apple.

what I'm hearing is that if I already have 5μg/dL, then I might as well get all 20.

I'm curious if someone could build a discord replacement on top of matrix, most importantly with voice chat and video streaming functionality. Discord is clearly focused on monetiz…

Waiting for them to train an AI on Miyazaki's art/writing style and pump out a bunch of junk.

RIP Unity.

What activity are you referring to? Because this paper doesn't say that "cannabis use" is such an activity.

Not ever experiencing this stuff anymore on linux is the best feeling.

Interesting how your response makes it seem like the person you're responding to mentioned android at all.

The headline literally says the "spy clause" was dropped. It sounds like that's it true at all, nothing was dropped.

it's not clear to me whether you're saying Wayland devs are out of touch, or Wayland critics are out of touch.

If it was anything like the Purism refund situation featured on Rossman's yt channel, their wording was actually that, "you can request a refund once we reach your position in the …

That's the price of a device that isn't subsidized by your data, is built using sustainable means, and is not yet scaled up for mass market.

pshh, Big Globe has been using photogrammetry for it's "window" displays for decades. /s

We don't know that though. The fact that it presumably works everywhere except Linux makes me think there's still a bug in that `edid-decode` path. And as far as I can tell from th…

yeah, that's probably why people are shooting them off power lines.

The bar for "daily driver" is different for different people's requirements. Would streaming Netflix be included? Running simple games?

the sparkfun videos give a pretty good intro to the kinds of parts they sell. Also, if you're only interested in small hobbyist circuits, it will simplify things if you only think …

hah, I knew the moment I saw the image that someone was going to poorly crop it, subtitle it, and spread it on social media claiming that entangled particles secretly looked like a…

It sounds like you're just describing a religion/cult. All talk, all faith in each other, no substance to back it up, no one dare doubting what is established as true. It's almost …

I thought the point of COD was that you didn't get the package until you paid the fee.
