I don’t think it would matter that much since a desktop at 3k is very similar on modern hardware to a desktop at 1080.

But I’d be interested in someone who had the hardware to test this. Right now I use my laptop for school work, and in trying to squeeze every ounce of battery life I was running my display at 45hz instead of 60hz. I had a free day during the summer so I charged it up, ran a YouTube video on repeat and timed the battery life, then changed the display frequency and it was like a 2 minute difference. I also tried it while running a second 1080p monitor through hdmi and the difference was something like 10 minutes. Like, so small a difference or didn’t matter.

I don’t have the data sheet anymore so these numbers are anecdotal etc etc YMMV. The biggest change for me was buying a 65w PD battery bank and keeping that charged in my bag.

Thank you. I was too lazy to find it.

So, at one point there was 14 competing standards. That was too many, so a bunch of nerds got together and made one all encompassing standard. One that had all the best parts of each other standard.

Now we have 15 competing standards.

I’ve enjoyed my time on fedora. It’s recent enough that my hardware works when I upgrade, and stable and supported enough that I haven’t had to go out of my way to get something working.

I lost my friggin glasses two weeks ago, it’d be nice to find them.

On Windows or Linux?

Compelling, but I don’t want to break the set.

Look, if someone cut me a cheque right now, for payment of my bones when I’m done with them I’d take it in an instant.

That’s not what’s happening here, those are likely bodies that didn’t meet the grade for medical/scientific use so they were sold off, which is gross and shitty.

However, bidding on my meat carcass starts at $5000.

User choice is an accident. Got it.

I can’t help but think that Microsoft has decided to proceed in some way that will break compatibility, so they’re done with Mono now.

I know it’s skeptical, but I just have no faith in that company to act in good faith with anything.

For like, a couple years, sure. Then there will be a huge push to fix all the weird shit generated by AI.

I did this.
Is it stupid? Yes. Did it work? Also yes. For the amount of time that we’d have power out, it was just way to easy to throw a breaker and connect it like this just to keep a small heater and a light running. If I had the money at the time I would have loved battery backup/ bypass but this cost $2 and an old cord.

I don’t know that valve needs to bring steamOS to other devices. Pretty sure Bazzite is good enough for most folks.

Oh my sweet summer child. The van was brand new at the time.

The whole world used to smell like cigarettes. When the server at a restaurant asked if you wanted smoking or non smoking section, they used to be right next to each other.

A legitimate question. The smoke was from my mom.

My mom had a red 1991, and I puked in it a ton. I remember her yelling at me “I opened the window, all the smoke is going out the window what are you complaining about?”. Long smokey drives that made me so car sick.

Just seeing one gives me the queezies.

Isn’t it like just over ten years old?

It’s just bad faith reporting. It reminds me of Kotaku sneaking into conventions before they opened to report what games were there.

It lowers my opinion of The Verge, I used to think they were at least reputable with standards, but that’s a real tabloid move.

When Boeing could build a plane.
