Nah, Steam Big Picture Mode itself is what makes it feel console-like for the most part: it runs fullscreen, has controller support, and if you set it to autostart on logon (and enable automatic logon for your user account), you pretty much

Not OP and not the answer you're looking for, but FWIW I own a ThinkPad Z13 Gen 1 (design is kinda similar to the X9) and literally everything works perfectly OOTB. You can even update every piece of updatable firmware from Linux (via

No, it was beyond amazing. Both the pilots and robots had a distinct character and a history behind them, and some combinations just seemed a better git than others. Like I can't imagine the kickboxer Milano piloting anything else besi

The important ones - from a security and privacy standpoint - are the baseband (cellular stack), WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC, camera, mic, bootloader and the Trusted Execution Environment. Then there's also minor firmware bits for the sensor

That is a very good question. It is especially concerning when you realise that most air fryers use black plastic, and most black plastics are made old electronic scraps which are coated in flame retardants and other toxic chemicals like ph

It's not "just" the kernel. The bigger issue is the firmware - Android devices have a ton of closed-source low-level firmware bits, and you really shouldn't expose them to the Internet after the device has reached end-of

Um, the last release for this was over 5 years ago. Clearly, this is an abandoned project. Why share it all of a sudden over here, or am I missing something?

Seems to buggy. According to the SeekStorm github, it's supposed to support boolean operators right? But they don't seem to work. Eg: https://deephn.org/?q=Linux+OR+KDE

Same, except my web backgrounds were in sepia. I had one of those old sepia monochrome monitors, so no grey for me. Or colors for that matter. I even made my first website on that monitor (complete with animated gifs and <blink>, of

Aurora does indeed use FDE (via LUKS). Firefox and other common applications are pre-installed (as Flatpaks) and get updated independently of the OS, without needing a reboot. There is an app store of sorts (called "Discover") whi

The main problem with ChromeOS Flex is it's limited hardware support. I installed it on my mum's old Dell Optiplex as a trial, and whilst it worked fine, it didn't support her Canon Pixma printer/scanner. I looked it up

I used the original Pocket for oncall, and whilst it was indeed very handy, the keyboard was not comfortable at all for any moderate or long-term use. The issue is that its size puts it in a weird no-man's land - it's a bit too

That's what I've been seeing in the industry as well, and it's honestly pretty disgusting. We were evaluating this one particular I*M product for infrastructure management, which needed to be installed on top of this other I*

Cool, but what I'd really like to see is a decent feed filter. Maybe something AI/LLM backed, because I already use custom RSS feeds but it doesn't catch all the topics I want, so I end up visiting the main feed anyway. I f

I was a big fan of JEMM386, was quite revolutionary when it came out - it used only 192 bytes of memory! A godsend for some demanding DOS games back then. And there was also HXRT from the same author, which allowed you to run win32 apps in

Forget bpftune, the real headliner here is Flox. Seems like a very cool and accessible wrapper around Nix. At first glance, it appears to be similar to Fleek, but not so clunky and broken, at least per my initial testing. I also like that

Old news, this was already fixed in 6.6.60 (released 08-Nov-2024) and later kernels (with the most recent (LTS) kernel being 6.6.62, released on 17-Nov-2024).

I agree with @gibbitz and @wmf. Whilst Apple Silicon has excellent battery life, that is only true if you're running macOS - that efficiency is lost when you run Asahi or other Linux distros (and I say this as an M1 MBA owner). There&#

Not OP, but there are many others which use the GPU specifically, such as Alacritty, Kitty, Warp, Ghostty to name a few off the top-of-my-head. It seems like pretty much every new terminal emulator that's coming out these days focus on

To be fair, it was just a bug in 6.1.64, which was already fixed in 6.1.66. Both are "old" kernels, so it's nothing to worry about, unless you were deliberately staying on 6.1 for some odd reason (yes, I'm aware 6.1 is L

That really depends on your requirements, workflow, and the type of PC/hw you're planning to run it on. But a general advice would be give it a good try first on your real hardware before you switch to it, and approach it with a m
