I was pretty certain that Firefox did already support VA-API with Intel and I did test that with integrated Intel graphics. Maybe this release is more about enabling it by default, or to also support the discrete GPUs? It's a pity the

Aurora store does not work anymore without a google account, at least for now. Google blocked their proxy accounts, I think. So curently there is no secure way to install apps from the play store without an account.

The danger of manipulation through propaganda is indeed an argument used in political discourse, though in reasonable discussions when talking about direct and indirect democracy. The layers of parliamentary systems are partly a means of pr

Disagree. First, the devices with removable batteries are exceedingly rare right now. They also often enough are niche products. Second, it is not reasonable to expect every consumer to always think about what is right, and not instead to f

That sounds completely reasonable - if you assume the users currently on Apollo 1) Can't be made to pay, directly with a price for the app or micropayments or indirectly via ads 2) Would move to the official app if Apollo shut down and

This references the Apollo client discussion and is wrong on many levels. 1. They are not "reining in" expenses, they are purposely pricing out 3rd-party clients (which probably has the goal to show more ads, not less) 2. The $10M

In what country are you? Keeping the money and not referencing why exactly (i.e. proving fraud on your side) is obviously illegal almost everywhere. Small claims court or your local equivalent should handle this.

That bluriness might actually be the anti-aliasing, TAA specifically. Pcgamingwiki often shows how to replace it with smaa because of that. Doesn't annoy everyone, but some it does.

I don't think you are wrong there. There is always a lot of subjectivity with things like this. Many people would never ever consider picking up a phone while watching any movie, while for others even absolutely exciting movies like Es

That's not true anymore :) The ARC A750 sits between the Radeon RX 6600 and 6650 XT. The 6600 is a bit cheaper, but significantly slower. The 6650 XT is faster, but also more expensive. When (and if) Intel improves the driver more it w

As a fan of games like Deus Ex and Witcher, Cyberpunk was the best game I ever played. And it's perfectly playable now (on PC under Linux).

The Play Store reviews promises more than a rubber stamp. It's okay to see it as such, but you said above the Play Store doesn't even pretend; If that were the case there would be no review process. Google will this year address s

That's not true. The Play store absolutely promises such protection, and Google adds more protection measures every year. The Android system even warns you when you install apps from other sources. Also see the related https:/&#x

It's a talking point. I'm sorry that it is negative and it might not fair to the parent commenter, but it's obvious bs. It is a propaganda point that was placed somehow into the discussion and gets repeated again and again. I

They are much easier to use for gaming, as you can install Steam without any hurdles. Note how the grandparent comment of your response mentions that being able to game easily now was what made the switch to Linux possible.

Just not if gaming is the goal. Steam would be only available as a Flatpak, says https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Steam . And the Flatpak version is problematic. Void would be a better choice if liking simplicity. Or t

Steam runs natively. It is a linux application (to my knowledge, and it wraps "a webview", so there might be some nuance here. But native enough for this distinction). Steam uses a compatibility layer called Proton to run Windows
