The one single thing I can’t stand about my Framework is the lack of S3 suspend, meaning I regularly have my laptop completely run down in situations my old one never would, even with its worn out battery. Unfortunately that’s not Framework’s fault and there’s nothing you can get with S3 if you want a newish CPU

Probably either KDE or NsCDE, I always seem to come back to those

“I found this via an LLM”

“Here’s a made up answer”

I DON’T HAVE ANY CORN DID YOU HEARD THAT AGNES DIED OF DYSENTERY LOTS OF LOVE LOL

I think it’s some CDN doing that because I got that exact page trying to go to digikey yesterday. I had to disable Firefox’s tracking protection to get past it

Fedora Atomic?

I got a $12 10 inch Asus eeepc 1005ha that I have NetBSD with i3 on and it’s perfectly usable, so something similar to that would probably be fine for linux cli stuff as long as a 32 bit cpu is okay

Since sometime around Plasma 4, KDE has been the name of the organization and Plasma had been the name of the desktop.

What? People are allowed to avoid people they have serious disagreements with? You have every right to have whatever unkind opinions you want to have, but that doesn’t mean anyone is required to listen to you or like you. You’re never going to be liked by everyone in the world, but if you can hardly find anyone willing to be around you, it’s probably time to do some self refelction

There isn’t really a single “fediverse” that decides what’s “allowed”. What your fediverse is depends on where your account is and who they’re federated with. You’re perfectly free to say whatever you want on your own instance and talk to the other people on instances willing to federate with you. The thing is, being mean to people who have done nothing to harm you tends to make you pretty unpopular and make people not want to interact with you, that’s why instances that encourage that tend to not be federated with very many popular instances.

Comment used it, these, and this. Please remove offensive pronouns, children may be present and children must not learn the english language

I’m not sure about the sims 1, but my original copies of 2 and 3 work fine for me in wine on linux, so if you’re on windows maybe you would be able to run your copy using boxedwine? Also maybe running the normal version of wine in WSL could work

I mean yeah but why would anyone want to pay more for a new digital copy of a game instead of just buying a used physical copy? I mean I guess maybe if you didn’t have an optical drive, but I bet a usb optical drive and an original copy would be cheaper than the new digital version

There’s actually a hack to make sync automatic, I’ve been using it and it works perfectly https://github.com/draumaz/kdeconnectbidirectionalclipboard

Does Windows not run the originals anymore? My original copy of the Sims 2 works perfectly fine in Wine so it’s not like it depends on some weird online service or something

I bought one last summer and the only problems I’ve had were some display issues which were solved by adding kernel parameters to disable all of the amdgpu power management (which as far as I can tell doesn’t even increase power usage noticeably). Other than that it has been basically perfect and way better than any other laptop I’ve had. I wish it had real suspend, but that’s just not possible on modern CPUs so that’s not Framework’s fault

Well yeah, the full saying is “Don’t tread on me, tread on ukraine instead”. They just shortened it

I mean yeah but you don’t need an expensive computer to play games. In the mid 2010s I spent loads of time playing games on my ~$200 something Asus netbook, and more recently I was using an old Dell Precision from 2011 I got for $25 and put a $75 GPU into from like 2018 until 2023.

I guess maybe the difference is that people who don’t buy expensive consoles or computers also don’t buy expensive games. For the most part I don’t buy things unless they have a sale for like under $30, so even though I’ve bought a lot of games I’ve probably paid less total money for games than the average console player.

Huh, I’m kind of surprised that’s a new thing. I would assume way more people own computers than consoles in modern times so you would think that would always mean more sales

I’m not sure how underrated it is but the exec feature in find is so useful, there are so many bulk tasks that would just be incredibly difficult otherwise but instead are just one line
