Technology@lemmy.worldβ’Microsoft in their infinite wisdom has replaced the Hide Desktop icon with Copilot.English
2Β·2 years agoIt doesnβt really bother me tbh.
KDEβs Discover app pulls from the distro package manager, snap, and flat hub. AppImages to me are like βportableβ executables and donβt really need an app store. However you can use Gear Lever to update them.

11Β·2 years agoI know this will usually draw the ire of more experienced users (yes I use Arch btw) but if you really want an install that is as hands-off and foolproof as possible you are generally gonna be better off with an Ubuntu distro.
I put Kubuntu on PCs for beginners/noobs because it gives them access to more advanced options if they need them in the future while also typically being fully functional out of the box.
Ubuntu distros typically have extensive hardware support and a lot of testing. Yeah itβs not going to be the most cutting-edge but you donβt want that, you want it to βjust workβ

Technology@lemmy.worldβ’Vision Pro TeardownβWhy Those Fake Eyes Look So WeirdEnglish
61Β·2 years agoEspecially considering they already put the battery external, if you have to shove a battery in your pocket and run a wire up to your head they might as well have put more of the electronics there too.
It would conserve a lot of weight and space and make it more comfortable to wear

Piracy: κ±α΄ΙͺΚ α΄Κα΄ ΚΙͺΙ’Κ κ±α΄α΄κ±@lemmy.dbzer0.comβ’Is it possible to get a virtual credit card for a different country?English
6Β·2 years agoYeah as far as I know this still works.
You need to use a valid address (there are sites for generating one)
You also need to use a credit card that has never previously been used in Google with another address

Linux@lemmy.worldβ’Is it me or is Nvidia on Wayland still a hot mess?English
21Β·2 years agoIt works pretty well for me with Kubuntu and Wayland and I have a rather non-standard AMD motherboard with an RTX3060 GPU on a laptop so it has to handle GPU switching as well.
I have found that some configurations like usb-c displayport only seem to work when I set Nvidia as the primary GPU, but in general it all works well and I actually had more issues with X11 in the end.

33Β·2 years agoWhile Iβm as skeptical as you are, I donβt think people recognizing you is a good metric.
A better test would be if an AI trained on your younger face could accurately and reliably identify you with your adult face.
The way AI and human face recognition work are different from each other. An AI may be able to identify you based on markers that human recognition doesnβt account for

Privacy@lemmy.mlβ’the encryption keys, why can't the government just sneak on them?English
3Β·2 years agoAs I understand it, itβs just as they said:
Calculating primes is fairly straightforward so you calculate a few large prime numbers, and do some math to them.
Now you have a strong key that didnβt require a supercomputer to create but taking that final number and turning it back into those original primes is a much more computationally expensive proposition.
In fact, itβs one thatβs not viable with current technology.

Technology@lemmy.worldβ’DRAM And NAND Chip Makers Are Determined To Drive Up DDR5 And SSD PricesEnglish
9Β·2 years agoI bought a WD Black 4TB gen4 nvme for just under $200 over the holidays.
The listing says up to 7,300MB/s. I only have a gen3 SSD slot so I canβt verify that but it saturates the gen3 capabilities.

linuxmemes@lemmy.worldβ’Two moodsEnglish
2Β·2 years agoIt was not managed, honestly I shouldβve disabled bitlocker, I just never expected it to be a problem.
As to settings for when it installs updates, they didnβt seem to stick or were not always respected in my experience. I spent a bit of effort trying to make sure it wasnβt configured to do that but it would still just go for it anyway if the system ever became idle after midnight or so.
Anyway this story has a happy ending because after that I decided to give daily driving linux another shot, and none of the issues I had experienced previously still exist here.
In fact, incredibly enough I have found on average that the games I play perform better on Linux now than they did on Windows.
And my OS never installs updates without my permission, let alone forcing an unscheduled reboot.







Sure but they couldnβt prove criminal intent so itβs ok.
