OBS to display a static image or looping video and your audio player of choice going through a playlist? Doesn’t need to be more complicated than that

I like it, as long as the absolute date is still visible when you hover over.

I can’t explain the unselectable property, but displaying relative time is considered good UX.

I just saw the part 2 has a distro comparison at the end. Thry claim different distros don’t matter, which is not what I’ve read in other publications. Anyone have an idea what might be going on here?

Also, where are the 1% lows?

Ubuntu 24.04? If you were to try to pick the worst, still supported distro for gaming that might be it. Maybe RHEL could be worse? If they chose it for stability like they claim they did they should have also used an LTSC version of Windows and the Pro drivers to compare to.

Probably a DLL swap

86c is fine. Especially with laptops the bios will not spin up your fan much when it doesn’t need to. You could check if there are other fan profiles in bios or override them with fan control software.

6700XT here. Never had any issues. Been using this card for like 2 years on Fedora. Can’t comment on the video encoder though.

Okay I kinda get it. But also like, everyone deserves some time off work. The pope doesn’t need to be on that sigma gridset.

There isn’t any other vendor that offers the kind of hardware-level redundancy that IBM does.

Don’t go buying one of these based on it being solid state. There was controversy around the Yoshino brand who claimed to have a solid state power station that turned out to be a hybrid chemistry at best. Make your purchasing decisions based on real world test results.

So this is like a vapor chamber but on chip package level?

Depends on what protocol the hub uses to communicate to the devices. ZWave and Zigbee are standards that are often compatible with generic hubs and Home Assistant. Gotta do your research on each device and how well they are supported

Well that depends on which religion you follow and how strictly you follow it. Might want to be a bit more specific

Not what I’d call easy. But still neat

Nice. I did a similar NAS setup with a Minisforum MS-A1. A lot more powerful but also a lot more expensive. I’d have gone for this hardware instead if it existed half a year ago.

Alyx is well optimized. I played through it on a 5600XT

They’re sometimes compatible. I have French style plugs in Belgium, but most of my devices have both a hole and side connectors to be cross-compatible.

“For AI” I guess it’s not suitable to store regular old data on then.

I think a UPS is overkill unless you also have brown-outs to cover for. A surge protector should be enough
