Make sure the device you pick up has low latency. Not sure if you can find specs like that in the spec sheets. For watching video, latency is not an issue, but when gaming, you want as little time as possible to go by between you pressing a button and the thing showing up on the screen.
Because it’s one thing to cruise along with a ship and just unspool some cable into the water but a whole other thing to dig hundreds of miles of trenches deep under water.
Man, can’t wait to never see these fixes on my 4 year old phone…
Also look at the memory of you haven’t already - run memtest
In the stomach of three sharks, twenty crabs and that one weird turtle
Runs great on my old-ish Galaxy S10 !
have you tried the builtin “winget” as alternative to chocolatey?
thank you! more up-to-date packages sound good to me, will have to check out mint, then.
how would you compare Mint to MX Linux? Whats the biggest difference in your opinion?
When selecting a distro to mess around with, i just checked distrowatch to find the most popular distro and chose that (MX). My reasoning was that the resources like wiki/tutorials/forum posts would be most easily available with a more “popular” distro.
You dont need to disable secure boot, you just need to enroll the ventoy keys: https://www.ventoy.net/en/doc_secure.html
I’m not sure how piped will be able to handle all the traffic when it gets more popular.
As far as I understand it - piped proxies the traffic between youtube and yourself.
And libretube uses piped in the backend. So all traffic has to go through the piped servers. Not sure if they will be able to scale this up…
reviewmeta tries to do this with Amazon reviews
Switching power supplies (“bricks”) are generally more efficient than linear power supplies because they lose less energy as heat. that’s were the difference comes from. (Of course they have drawbacks as well, like increased noise)
Yeah but if the OLED screen has to display black (RGB 000), it turns off the diodes completely. But as you said, most dark modes have a dark grey background which doesn’t do shit (jerboa has a black option btw)
For oleds, it makes a difference and not an insignificant number of smartphones today use OLED screens.
However, if the microwatt-hour of battery saved by browsing a shitty website of a shitty company for a few minutes saves the planet is another story…
For me, the benefit of discord is not the text chat but the voice aspect. With push to talk/voice activated transmission and low latency for gaming.
The voice features of matrix are more of a conference call thing.
Until this gets implemented in matrix (not sure if ever) I’ll continue hosting mumble (or TeamSpeak)
