It’s an older Samsung phone, so chances are you may have to use Samsung’s Odin utility to flash the ROM

If you have to know… Mostly Skyrim as of late . Been thinking of doing some questionable content at some point with a few friends

I have 2 PCs

my main one is full AMD running hyprland -5800X, 7900XTX, 32GB ram, etc.

My second PC is solely used for streaming and is running an old GTX 1070 for encoding purposes.

From what I can see, I’ve not really had any issues running hyprland on it. Though I will admit it doesn’t do much beyond running Carla, OBS, Qpwgraph, Firefox, discord and jack_mixer on specially designated workspaces. And it streams soley via EVGA Xr1 Lite capture devices. It does have desktop-portal-hyprland, just in case I want to capture my stream PCs desktop, but I don’t really use it much. It’s connected as a second input to my secondary monitor, and has a mirrored display on a small touch screen so I don’t have to swap monitor inputs too often, and can trigger scene changes with just a touch. The hardest part was getting the monitors to play nicely, as the touchscreen sits upside down.

Full specs of my second PC, as it’s quite old - Intel Core i5-4690, ASRock H97M pro4, 16GB Ram, EVGA GTX 1070, Intel 120GB SSD, 1TB WD Green 5400rpm HDD.

It’s like the XP olive theme with the vista/7 style widgets sidebar - all you need is the RPM style CPU usage gauges.

Hey, that counts in my book!

It’s hypr-chan!

Honestly I would love to see a webcomic about hypr-chan, I wonder what the significance of all the Holo cat. And that bus looks super sci-fi, she must be riding the hypr-loop

I recognise that internet router on the right. That looks like the “smart router” Telstra gives their customers - we have one we used to use back when we had Telstra cable. It’s currently playing the duty of an Ethernet switch for dad’s office.

The biggest problem with statistics is it doesn’t illustrate the full picture - most men in that position don’t even realise they’re being abused, or refuse to come out and acknowledge it.

Those men don’t end up as apart of the statistic. So the statistic is more a indicator as to which gender is more likely to report their abuser, than which gender Is actually a victim.

No statistic is going to be accurate, because it generally relies on the data being available, when often not all of it is.

Man your daughter is lucky, I don’t even have a dishwasher. I am the dishwasher. I used to have one, but then we moved house.

In the end it doesn’t matter how it’s stacked so long as they come out clean - don’t forget to fill the prewash section with powder, it helps immensely.

Got curious as to what it would recommend me … first choice…

Arch.

They’ve got me in a box here - I haven’t switched from arch in like 3-4 years now. In fact my configuration is mostly stagnant. I just use Pacman/yay to keep it mostly up to date. But otherwise it’s a complete mess.

What is this, a wedding with an orgy at the reception?

VLC works most of the time. That said some videos VLC can’t seem to decode correctly - I never get VLC complaining about unsupported file formats, but I do get weird artifacts and glitched rendering when I try to play certain ones.

It’s then that I usually try MPV or MPlayer. One of those will usually play the video correctly.

Me: cycling through every media players I have installed until I get one that plays the video properly.

VLC, MPV, MPlayer, Parole, etc

I would only count the ones that aren’t locked down and you can get into the Linux kernel and root user.

That said the low specced laptops might as well be large size mobile phones.

Not true in Australia - it more depends on package size - larger packages and niche packages are more likely to have shipping that’s often more expensive than the price of the item, especially if it has to be shipped overseas. Prime give me more options to buy these items with free shipping without paying more than double.

My prime sub is more for free delivery on packages, rather than their shitty prime video service.

That said my dad does get some use out of it.

I wouldn’t call that “desktop” Linux.

Meanwhile here in Adelaide…A drizzle of rain and a top of 18C

What. The. Fuck.

Try the same temp on Christmas day…

Where’s my Australian Scorcher of a Christmas?

Because the vast majority of people don’t have a reason to do it. They’ve never used Linux before - heck there are people who have never heard of it before.

The other thing is you and I, chances are can find a use for our old machines, have a place to store it, or know how valuable it currently is. Most other people aren’t aware of how parts or entire systems depreciates, don’t have a use for a second computer, and can’t afford the storage space to store a spare PC for a backup. They also don’t really have time to do a lot of research on the issue or just plain old don’t care.

So what do they do? Well there only remaining option is to throw it away, maybe theyll be a bit wise and take it to an electronics recycler, where you have to trust it won’t get thrown away anyway.
