I’m using Firefox as my only browser. If everything works in Firefox that’s fine for me.

That’s the best advantage of only making websites / web applications for fun (for friend groups, video games, family etc)

Cardio

Meta probably is the hardest one given that in many influencal countries WhatsApp is the app everyone uses for communication

Oh right in the USA there are mostly automatic cars

Huh?

Realistically one option: Java edition (why would I play bedrock)

(But I was asking for a distro recommendation, not a Minecraft recommendations. Ty though.)

I’m assuming when my only game is Minecraft I don’t need bleeding edge support, right? Just any stable linux distro should work fine?

What if I have basically the same requirements as OP but for gaming only Minecraft has to work (which I assume isn’t an issue on any distro)

i7 11800h and Nvidia RTX 3060 Laptop if that matters

I hope so. I don’t want Android to become the new Apple

LLM have greatly increased my coding speed: instead of writing everything myself I let AI write it and then only have to fix all the bugs

Often the answers are pretty good. But you never know if you got a good answer or a bad answer.

Hopefully that’ll change, iirc the EU discussed about requiring physical buttons for the highest safety rating a few months ago. Idk how that turned out but if it passed there’s hope

I love it when politicians in a democracy are doing things for the people.

Are these buttons in a room with us right now

Give me my buttons back

We still have Lemmy

For the money you save by buying similarly good hardware that isn’t from apple you can pay someone to install an OS

MacOS has different flaws but has major flaws nonetheless. Linux is the one that truly lets you own your computer, you decide everything.

The only issue I see is that they make a new Chinese equivalent for GitHub where they can censor code easier (or was GitHub already blocked?), but they already censor everything anyway so there’s probably effectively no change.

As someone who tried macOS and really didn’t like it I still have to say that you’re overreacting. It is worth using if you want everything to look good while never ever configuring anything yourself (many things can’t be changed), and if you want all your devices to work together without any setup (requires buying all devices from Apple).

It can’t do anything that other OS can’t. But it does many things out of the box.

Why?

Doesn’t even have to collect money, he could just sell everything except SpaceX and still live a happy life and fly to Mars one day.

I meant actual numbers in regards to my last comment (the one you previously replied to) since I was just basing that one on calculations I did like a year ago. So now I made another comment where I used actual numbers instead of just roughly writing my conclusion from a year ago. It was not directed at your comment, sorry for the misunderstanding.

And I’m using low mileage per year because as I stated in the comment before this is about my situation, about if an EV is practical for me or if I’m forced to wait until they’re getting cheaper. Currently I’m at around 5000 km per year, I use public transport a lot (and am not expecting that to change anytime soon).

Also the price per kWh is the average price per kWh in my area and is roughly the average I’m getting (I think I have 0.17€ rn since it’s cheaper in summer but I also had 0.42€ already in winter so 0.2€ average really isn’t high).

Battery replacement rate is based on this (first search result for ev battery degradation):

At the average degradation rate of 2.3% per year, an EV battery would take 15 years to decline to 70% maximum charge. However, as we expect EV battery life to decline non-linearly, there would likely be a more significant drop-off as the battery ages.

This means the battery is at 80% capacity after 10 years, which already drops the range below 300 km in winter for not insanely expensive EV. I do not have first hand experience on how many years a battery lasts, but even if it lasts 20 years (63% with this formula, although they do state that it’s expected to decline quicker after longer usage, and current EVs wouldn’t get my minimum 300 km winter range anymore) I’m still at break even point when buying a new battery after those 20 years.

That’s why I’m holding off for now and just continue driving my reliable 25 year old Skoda, hoping for EV to become cheaper soon (all it takes is a new battery technology… the battery is why EVs are so expensive rn).

And your source is calculating with prices from 2019. Before COVID, before the Russo-Ukrainian war. I’m using numbers from this year.
