Well, this is goodby to lemmy.world! Rest in pieces

In America, some carriers disable hotspot on the devices they sell and hold you hostage. There are many ways around this. The best way is to use OEM non carrier phones. Other options include pdanet and several other apps designed to bypass the carrier software locks. My graphene os hotspot works perfectly no matter what carrier I use

Edit: Oh, and you can forget it on iphones. Apple loves sucking carriers dicks and fucking you all over. They go out of their way to ensure the carriers are robbing you before allowing hotspot use

I use my monitors with DP 1.4 for general computing and the TV for media and gaming. I HATE using Windows but forced too for now for HDR. I use an offline Ventoy instance of Windows. I will change to QEMU and dedicated video card for Windows once I get another video card

I have to use hdmi for my S95B because the clowns at Samsung won’t add DP to their TVs, and I need HDMI for Atmos. I can do 4k 120HZ 10bit VRR in Windows with hdmi. In Linux it is only 8bit 120hz no VRR over hdmi. DP works as expected on my monitors

Variable Refresh Rate. AMD is trying to work with their legal department to enable Hdmi 2.1 but I haven’t seen a working driver release yet. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/1417#note_1795980

10bit VRR works in Windows but it won’t work in linux. Linux is limited to 8bit and no vrr. How can you confirm that hdmi 2.1 is working? My display is Samsung S95B

I got 99 problems but a…

I spent an absurd amount of wasted hours in linux trying to get my Rx6700xt to do 10bit VRR output over hdmi 2.1. Turn out, we are not allowed to use hdmi 2.1 at all in open source drivers thanks to the pieces of shit at “HDMI Forum”. If HIP RT requires hdmi 2.1 that will be an unsolvable issue with hdmi
