I’ve tried what popOS had around 6 months ago, and it wasn’t what I wanted. I needed to manually launch apps with the GPU. I want it to work like it does in windows where when the igpu gets too much load it dynamically switches to the dgpu.
The only thing keeping me on windows is the Nvidia GPU in my laptop. If Linux got actual dynamic GPU switching support I would delete windows and never look back.
I am forced to use instagram, because that’s all anyone my age uses to communicate. I’m in the process of setting up matrix bridge so that I can be done with that app.
Canada, specifically Alberta. I would say that it’s better out east or on the coast, but housing over there is even worse than it is here.
I was recently on a group hike with a university club, and an Austrian exchange student kept talking about how good life in Austria is. He attends university for free, lives in a vibrant city with great public transit, and with affordable housing.
My city has unaffordable housing, shit transit, and an inept local government. We are staking our future on oil prices constantly going up. The last time oil prices dipped was catastrophic, with mass layoffs and unemployment in nearly every sector.
On top of this we are being hit extra hard by climate change. Last summer I couldn’t go outside because of wildfire smoke, and this year is going to be even worse. Every year there’s less and less water, to the point where year round drought seems like an inevitability. Our politicians are climate change deniers. The people who elect them couldn’t care less, and cry about any measures taken to mitigate it’s effects.
I don’t want to be stuck paying $2000 a month for a studio apartment as the climate around me slowly degrades, and my politicians try their best to turn us into America.
A sizeable fraction of the students I’ve talked to about this has or is playing around with the idea of leaving. Austria is just the first country that came to mind, but I would take almost any EU country if the opportunity was offered.
As a CS student, yes absolutely. These people then complain about paper exams and when the code gets complex enough for the AI to make mistakes. I’ve seen a few people drop out in programming 2, and my web 1 class was decimated because we were doing more than leetcode exercises. It’s a real problem that so many people are using it as a crutch.
In my experience the latency on Bluetooth mice and keyboards is so low that it doesn’t matter. Most people who aren’t playing in like the top 1% of their game should be fine.
I was really into skiing when I was younger, and would go every weekend with my buddy and his dad. I tried to outrun them, fell, and tumbled. My shoulder was very badly sprained, and I couldn’t use it for like a month. Now from time to time it flares up again, and the pain comes back for a few hours. The shoulder is also much easier to sprain now, every time I fall it’s out of commission for weeks. I went to my doctor, who told me that nothing is broken and there’s nothing he can do about it.
This article says that the fee applies to every installation of a marketplace.
Why did you editorialize the headline from “atrocities” to “resistance”?
I only use the play store to keep critical apps (banking and security) updated. Everything else comes from Aurora.
I think a lot of it has to do with age. I’m probably younger than the average Lemmy user, and for me Windows 10 is the sweet spot. The older versions just feel outdated. I think it depends on the first version we seriously used and learned on.
Oh wow, thats incredible! Looks like I have my Sunday project now.
