  • Is there a phone I can buy that out the box is rooted, private, and does not install bloat apps?

    Jump
    1. Buy Pixel 9a (great value among new, 120Hz smartphones)
    2. Activate, setup service
    3. Unlock bootloader
    4. Install grapheneos using their install guide
    5. Lock bootloader

    Good budget(ish) switch to get a good phone, privacy, security, and AOSP experience.

  • My guess is a pre-built PC or AR device. Latter is more unlikely since it would substantially overlap with their Index market.

    EDIT: A PC makes more sense given the strides they've made with Proton recently.

    Another idea is a platform for in-place movement while using the index? Seems a little more out there given VR has fallen off the map a little recently.

  • It's about control, they don't want us deciding anything.

  • Battlefield 6 will be a unplayable on Linux systems due to the anti-cheat

    Jump

  • I don't have any Windows PCs anymore, and I'm not buying a $200 Windows Pro license just to buy a $70 game with questionable recent history.

    Potential customer lost.

    PS: I think the fact that they've made this decision also provides insight to the game itself.

  • [Dune: Awakening] freezes after some time of playing

    Jump

  • Do you have steam overlay disabled? If so try the LD_PRELOAD workaround by entering:

    LD_PRELOAD="" %command%

    in the game's launch options.

    This was supposed to be fixed by now but I still have the issue intermittently with some games. Usually they just start lagging, but rarely they will full crash.

    Please update once you confirm it does or doesn't work.

    EDIT: More about what this variable does, for the curious: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Steam/Troubleshooting

  • Why does Arch seem to have a cult like following?

    Jump

  • Maybe it's masochism, but I like Arch because it forces me to make mistakes and learn. No default DE, several network management choices, lots of configuration for non-defaults. These are all decisions I have to make, and if I try to cut corners I usually get punished for it.

    However, I think the real reason I stick with arch is because this paradigm means that I always feel capable of fixing issues. As people solve the issues they face, forum posts and wiki articles (and sometimes big fixes) get pushed out, and knowledge is shared. That sense of community and building on something I feel like Arch promotes.

  • Amazon engineers and marketers were asked on Monday to volunteer their time to the company’s warehouses to assist with grocery delivery

    Jump

  • My optimistic side is imagining a truck filled with a small town's worth of nutrient-rich groceries, making one trip to replace dozens of individual trip to a less-than-convenient grocery store.

    My pessimistic side is imagining a truck with one or two people's worth of shitty "American" groceries, making the same trip they would have made to a grocery store down the street.

    I feel like the reality heavily leans to latter, but I only have anecdotal data to back that up.

  • Lived in NE my whole life, hot, black coffee only. But I agree, most people here love it. Feel like "coffee" is mostly coffee-milkshake these days.

  • "You can't just have Geralt for every single game" says his voice actor, and if you think The Witcher 4 making Ciri the protagonist is "woke," then "read the damn books"

  • Exactly my opinion as well, last game ended perfectly for a new story.

  • Linux is not ready

    Jump

  • Is fractional scaling a standard feature in GNOME now? Last time I needed it, it was still an experimental feature I had to enable.

  • Debadging a car

  • Why would anyone be ashamed of owning a WRX STi?

  • Mecha Comet is a modular Linux handheld coming soon to Kickstarter for $159 - Liliputing

    Jump

  • I feel like it’s almost too generic to be useful. All the “standard” attachments make it a thing that already exists (and those things are usually much stable and supported). If they get enough 3rd party attention prior to launch, that could change.

    I wish they would have spent the time and effort just committing to the smartphone idea. Linux and the Linux community could greatly benefit from more open source smartphone devices.
