get a decent VPN

As another public only user, gotta emphasise this. I’m on a pretty quick fibre connection, so luckily it’s not a bother for me to get really good ratios but every little helps folks!

I believe someone wrote a sleep timer script for deadbeef

Yeah I’m aware, and I’ve tried it separately on Pop too. Just personally going to wait for the first release proper now

Definitely worth playing around with either on bare metal like an old laptop or something, maybe in the holidays like you mention. I switched to Linux on my main gaming PC a year and a half ago, and just installed EndeavourOS (with Plasma) on my new Framework laptop

Really coming along nicely, looking forward to trying this on EndeavourOS

Fwiw, the Infinity Book Pro 14 in the review is also from Clevo. The author does praise Tuxedo’s tight integration of their flavour of Linux to the HW, so perhaps this is ahead of S76. No dog in this fight as I’m neutral on both companies, I like PopOS but have never bought a laptop from either

I like Vivaldi but all the manifest V3 stuff just pushed me to Librewolf for everything whether it works or not, so maybe I should “thank” Google

I’ve just built a new gaming PC for the living room with the 9070XT and tried various KDE flavour distros like KDE neon, Bazzite, Fedora KDE spin etc for more mature VRR and HDR support. Ended up on EndeavourOS which was really straightforward to install and get to grips with in terms of native packages and the AUR. Was easy enough to add the additional repos to get access to Mesa 25+ for GPU support, I’m really liking the distro so far!

I’ve used PopOS and Mint before but this is my first Arch based distro.

I got caught out by RDR2, tried playing it a few evenings ago, even signed up for a crappy Rockstar account only to be greeted by the “this game is registered to another account” message. Screw them

Is it just me that thinks this is a slippery slope into Google working towards locking everyone who uses/watches YT into Chrome only?

I count myself lucky for holding on to my 1080ti for as long as I did - by the time I made the switch to Linux the drivers were pretty stable

Rest in power, Aaron. 🫡

Eat the rich.

Yeah, not quite what I wanted to get across. Leopardsatemyface might be more suitable!

How nice of Nvidia, helping gamers save money in these hard times /s

nottheonion vibes

Kinda off topic but does anyone know a reliable thing that does the opposite, i.e. a good speech to text tool? There’s a few audiobook series that I’d love to read but are only available in audio format

The Pop Shop is definitely one of the worst things about the distro, Cosmic Shop runs smooth as butter by comparison. Looking forward to the Cosmic Beta currently due in a few months

Popped straight up on AntennaPod for me
