Same, it’s fine and no joke rogan

I took a more aggressive approach, I bought a second drive, but I just took the old one out (laptop). I made a windows recovery USB too and just stored them together. My laptop doesn’t get firmware updates through FW update so a couple times this year I have swapped the drive back in, booted up the windows partition and updated the firmware through their stupid tool.

Even on the vendor site, this laptop only has .exe files for firmware

Battery management

I have this laptop, running Fedora with kde. It’s fine.

Weird, I’ve been doing this for years with multiple bikes and phones. No issues like this. Friend has a Harley and did the same thing. If your bike vibrates more than his Harley, then your teeth would probably fall out.

Android Auto used to just work as an app on my phone. It was great for my bikes. Ram mount, USB 12v, sena, android auto. Everything worked great. Then Google, like they always do, turned it off. Fuck Google. I don’t need a head unit on my motorcycle when I already have a phone.

I repeat, fuck Google.

Lol shows how much I pay attention

Off the top of my head, GalliumOS or nix

Not a lot to this article, but I’m glad he’s focused on making Wayland better.

Depending on your needs, I ordered a Lenovo X1 carbon with Fedora on it direct from Lenovo. It is awesome and I’d be surprised if Lenovo doesn’t ship to Switzerland.

I also just received a framework 13 for one of my family members and tbh it’s pretty amazing. Might be worth looking into a mail forwarding service.

This says it uses the battery from a polestar. So it’s not lead acid but lithium. And 79kWh.

Vancouver Washington residents drive to PDX for their jobs, to shop, eat dinner etc…

For real though I’d like a VR system (modern) that can use the steam store natively.

Agreed, I love mine.

Indeed, I had a BMW that when it got 250 miles I was happy!

Counter point, it hasn’t crashed once in my one plus 9 though I wish Swype worked better. I’m super happy to have another option though and am powering through it.

Maybe, but I took some business courses too and even some of them had at least tried a Linux distro. I think it was more widespread than just turbo nerds and cs majors. Hell one of the biggest Linux guys I knew was an anthropology major.

This was me, you’re talking about me. 😂 In the 90’s Linux was barely getting started but slackware was probably the main distro everyone was focused on. That was the first one I ran across. This was probably late 90’s, I don’t remember when slack first came about though.

By the time the 2000’s came around, it was basically a normal thing for people in college to have used or at least tried. Linux was in the vernacular, text books had references to it, and the famous lawsuit from SCO v IBM was in full swing. There were distro choices for days, including Gentoo which I spent literally a week getting everything compiled on an old Pentium only for it to not support some of the hardware and refuse to boot.

There was a company I believe called VA Linux that declared that year to be the year of the Linux desktop. My memory might be faulty on this one.

Loki gaming was a company that specialized in porting games to Linux, and they did a good job at it but couldn’t make money. I remember being super excited about them and did buy a few games. I was broke too so that was a real splurge for me. I feel like they launched in the 90’s (late) and crashed in the early 2000’s.

Which to me is also a failure. Everyone knows the Tesla network is Tesla. And it’s hands down, better. People use Electrify America and have a bad experience (myself included) and they get mad at it. Even if they don’t know it’s tied to vw.

YouTubers and journalist talk about it and tie it to vw and suddenly your enthusiasts are panning vw for their garbage network.

It’s a lose lose for Volkswagen the way they did this.

You aren’t wrong, but also it directly impacts the company reputation. Doing it as absolute crap as they did hurts them. Not the whole industry, because looks what’s happened since, the charging standards in USA went from CCS to nacs, all the manufacturers switched to using Tesla network which, checks notes is your direct competition.
