I don’t think I’ve ever made a “clean upgrade” on Linux. I’ve done the opposite though, that is, bring an old install over to a new computer.
Same here. I switched to DDG last year, but had to go back within two weeks; it was just too annoying.
Google search results have indeed gotten pretty bad, but I’ve yet to see anyone surpass them.
Ubuntu is just getting worse and worse. I was pretty happy running Ubuntu server for years after moving from Gentoo; I jag lost interest in spending time taking care for that server and wanted something easy.
I went to Debian half a year ago and it’s been great. Should’ve done it earlier.
Mostly for finding information that for whatever reason can be difficult to find using search engines. For example, I’ve used ChatGPT to ask spoiler-free questions about plot points in books I’m reading, which has worked rather well. It hasn’t spoiled me yet, but rather tells me that giving more information would be a spoiler.
Last time I tried to look something up on Google, carefully, I got a massive spoiler for the end of the entire book series.
I also use it for code-related questions at times, but very rarely, and mostly when using a language I’m not used to. Such as when I wrote an expect script for the first (and perhaps only) time recently.
ZFS is really nice. I started experimenting with it when it was being introduced to FreeBSD, around 2007-2008, but only truly started using it last year, for two NASes (on Linux).
It’s complex for a filesystem, but considering all it can do, that’s not surprising.
That’s in bytes. A modern NVMe drive can do about 7 GB/s (more than 10 for PCIe 5.0 drives). Even SATA could handle 5 Gbit/s, though barely.
Sorry for the nitpick, but you probably mean GB/s (or GiB/s, but I won’t go there). Gbps is gigabits per second, not gigabytes per second.
Since both are used in different contexts yet they differ by about a factor of 8, not confusing the two is useful.
This is about the website.
Unless you’ve changed your vault encryption settings (which is not a bad idea!) it will likely decrypt rather quickly.
I changed mine to Argon2id with settings such that one iteration takes over one second (on a Ryzen 5800X3D, about the same on my phone), since I don’t unlock it very often.

Yes.
He doesn’t have 15 million subscribers that all hate him.
10x more?
Here’s a 3 meter UHS certified HDMI cable for $9.99. I doubt you can find one for much less that handles 4K 120 Hz w/ HDR properly.
LCD for extra brightness? I don’t think you’ve been keeping up as mobile OLEDs are usually brighter than mobile LCDs. Not that there are many LCDs left.
The Nokia XR21 is one LCD phone released in 2023:
IPS LCD, 120Hz, 450 nits (typ), 550 nits (HBM)
Another phone with brightness listen on gsmarena is the Oukitel WP30 Pro:
IPS LCD, 120Hz, 430 nits
Take a few popular OLED phones for comparison…
Galaxy S24: Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X, 120Hz, HDR10+, 2600 nits (peak)
iPhone 15: Super Retina XDR OLED, HDR10, Dolby Vision, 1000 nits (HBM), 2000 nits (peak)
Or for consoles, Steam Deck LCD is about 400 nits, while the OLED is up to about 600, or 1000 in HDR.
This again? It’s utter bullcrap I’m afraid.
20 feet is fine unless you want 4K 120 Hz and stuff like that. I’m which case 20 feet may also be fine with a passive cable, but a bit on the edge of where AOC starts to make sense.
As for 1080p and 4K30 I think 10 meters can work passively.
Edit: My in-head unit conversion was a bit off, 20 feet is probably a bit over what’s sensible for 4K120. But it’s probably fine for non-UHS HDMI.
No, it’s not. I have never brushed my teeth too hard and have always used very soft toothbrushes, but I used to brush for 6-7 minutes, and my gums have suffered for it. Way too much of my teeth are now exposed, which is both ugly and causes sensitivity.
In the long run, if one keeps this up, teeth will start falling out.
Don’t overbrush.
What’s your source that he is a felon? Can’t find anything about that at all.
This is less of an issue in multiplayer games, as they rarely have very narrow FOVs by default. The worst offenders are often console ports and slower first-person games.
FWIW while it’s a competitive advantage with high FOV, if there is a slider, it’s still fair since everybody can use a higher FOV if they want to.
It’s not all advantage though, aiming gets harder (aside from the distortions).
I don’t see why it matters at all in single-player. So what if it makes the game easier? Who cares?
The fact that I don’t have to stop due to almost vomiting also makes it easier in a way, but I really don’t mind.
The fact that the optimal FOV differs on a per-player basis is of course exactly why I want a FOV slider everywhere. I usually prefer about 105 degrees horizontal (in 16:9), while some modern games default in the range 75-85.
FOV slider and option to disable head bob if present. Games with a too narrow FOV and/or head bob are unplayable for tons of people who suffer from motion sickness, and it’s such a shame to have so many good games ruined by it.
You can still block it easily with the command prompt (Shift+F10 during the install) as mentioned. But don’t let that stop you from switching to Linux if you feel like it.
