I use an audio interface with bookshelf speakers… mostly overkill for people who don’t make music because they have xlr and line level inputs for using a professional mic.
Do you have room in your computer setup for two bookshelf speakers at ear height? Because otherwise, I’d recommend a sound bar type of deal.
Cycling kickstarters have an awful track record. Make sure it’s make by an actual cycling company and even then it’s better to do a late pledge after some fulfillment and reviews.
Everything search app is easily my most used on my Windows PC. Instant, as-you-type file search by name with detail sorting and wildcard support. I set a keyboard shortcut as well. It puts Explorer search to shame. As good as Spotlight, which I was missing from when I had a Mac in 2008.
LaunchyQT - modern fork of Launchy that actually gets development. App launcher, dead simple.
FanControl - Fan curve software with all the features I want including hybrid temp sources, sensible automatic settings, visual graphs with an intuitive interface.
AutoHotKey - Hotkey scripting language that I can use even as someone who barely codes.
Transcribe! - Not open-source but it’s a reasonably priced audio and video slow down app for transcribing.
I watched it and it’s intriguing. The characters have similar roles to the real show and speak in similar ways. The problem is that the “writer” has no point of view and therefore the satire was completely missing.
Wish I could, my phone manufacturer has the bootloader locked down and I will be using this one until it stops getting security updates. I’ll probably switch to Zenfone 8/9 or a mid budget moto eventually as those tend to be unlockable.
I’m more certain about the first search part.
It took me a distressing amount of time to locate a swimwear brand that even makes a two to four inch inseam swim trunk. It’s Sauvage Swimwear, btw. Pricy, but if you’re like me and buy one pair every decade it’s worth it.
People look down on dress sneakers (dress shoes that have comfortable soles) but as long as they are fully brown or black, 90% of people would never notice them.
The first time anybody on your instance searches for a separate lemmy community, your Lemmy instance reaches out for the other community and learns that it exists. After that point it shows up in searches and after one person subscribes it appears in your instance’s All feed.
Bring back cloaks.
They mean any alternative to first past the post, options being STAR voting, approval voting, or ranked choice. Basically anything that means a 3rd party vote isn’t a “wasted” vote.
Absolutely devastated. The shade. 💀
For anybody who was confused like me, this is a Nathan J Robinson parody account, not the actual Current Affairs owner.
The propaganda is people “like” their private insurance and don’t want to be “forced” to get rid of it. There is also an anti-tax streak that has existed since the 1700s (no taxation without representation, Boston tea party, etc) that lives on strongest in reactionary politics.
Edit: Oh and last time we tried to actually improve healthcare they scare mongered the public that there would be “government death panels” who decided whether you would get coverage. As opposed to the current reality where the death panels are real and run by private corporations.
I’ve had good luck with the For Dummies series but those are more like tutorial books and make sure it isn’t an out of date edition.
Edit: Also check out simple English wikipedia for short summaries that never use jargon unless it’s defined.
I played the demo. After the amazing trailer they had I thought it would be great, but it’s a mission-based point and click adventure game with some multiverse and role-playing elements and a basic turn based combat system. It didn’t appeal to me that much, but I thought the writing and art style was alright.
Yes, with the caveat that it could overwrite the Grub menu/boot partitions of other Linux installs on the device. I’d disconnect all disks with working Linux partitions and possibly all Windows ones too while installing to USB from a Live USB.
Taken from the linked announcement, it appears not:
The GNU Linux-libre project takes a minimal-changes approach to cleaning up Linux, making no effort to substitute components that need to be removed with functionally equivalent Free ones. Nevertheless, we encourage and support efforts towards doing so.
So basically it’s the user’s or maintainer group’s job to select replacement code/libraries/drivers and how they do that is up to them.
The only workable discreet GPUs with open source drivers that work right now are on Team Red (AMD) edit: and Intel.
There are good people working on Nvidia foss drivers but they have a long way to go.
Klipsch has been a consistently good brand for a long time. I checked on ebay and there’s some great ones for $200 to $300. Only 2.0 setups for that price, though.
You will need an amp for those unless it’s got a built-in amp (some models have that).
