yeah i guess but wouldn’t you need a usb a to c adapter and a powered usb hub and a external power supply?

or are keyboards power efficient enough that you don’t need one?

I’m dumb, it was prolly running on my i7-3632qm because cycles needs dGPUs for gpu acceleration

it’s still a 12yo processor though

cycles is hilariously usable on weak hardware (though faster hardware is definitely desirable), I tried it on my Intel hd4000 and it somehow works

wireless keyboards? a good wireless keyboard is more expensive than old thinkpads in my region ._.

the wiki download thing is so nice

typing on phones are so painful…

buy a $50 thinkpad and spare yourself from the pain

tried pmos with plasma mobile but the browsers were buggy because of my SOC having bad graphics acceleration support in the mainline kernel

chromium is still ‘libre’ though, so I don’t think that’s enough

“chrome was hogging up my ram” is the dumbest part of all of this lmao, this person’s decisionmaking is completely driven by placebo and it’s hilarious

does ddg not have its own search backend anymore?

the fuse popped, right?

i mean it’s in the name:
FEDiverse

I don’t get the hate against the lemmy devs tbh, they have their (perhaps controversial) political views but they leave everyone that’s not on their site alone and it feels like they develop lemmy pretty impartially

sure they might ban you off ml but that’s their site and they get to do whatever they want with it, just like every other instance

i mean network effect is a thing i guess but that’s not as important on lemmy where there are usually similarly large communities about generic things on most major instances

don’t let them change the meaning of our words then

could you elaborate on why?

It’s really disappointing seeing Russian contributors being disrespected like this, the regime that rules Russia wasn’t entirely their fault, and allegiance, nationality, and ethnicity are all clearly different things

Also, wouldn’t a state sponsored Russian hacker pretend to be from the US or something anyway? No way they’d contribute code as a Russian, that’d just increase others’ suspicion

I agree with Linus a lot too but I strongly disagree here. I hope he’s just being made to say this because of government policies

new users should just try out distros in vms and decide for themselves

just for when i screw up the partitions on my computers

you can get a live iso image with gparted :)

ventoy with some live image, gparted, and arch iso

i honestly prefer using usbs over cloud stuff because of the speed and it being less hassle, unless it’s a situation where I can just just syncthing or kde connect
