The power creep in the MCU is already bonkers. We can’t go and add him. We don’t have any villains to challenge the Super.

Mid at best

Is it possible to fully repair, ya of course. But the labor + parts, and higher chance of the electronics being weakened/damaged…it’s a corporate device anyways.

Bottom cover is metal, the top cover plastics broke off with the henges. Then there’s the cable damage. But I’ll def look into the puddy.

And nah, it’s being “retired”

Don’t play it? Who cares? Ya it’s kinda weird, ill never play it or install it. That’s that, why try shaming people for stuff like this?

Just saying that it kinda reads. Like an ai prompt

Is ai creating alt text now?

Also, ya no system is crash proof =(

From what I remember, even the dell process was a testament to following instructions to the T. Having to do some steps with the battery connected, then more with it disconnected, then connected again. HP used some special screw for board locking. Lol what a wild time.

I can only go by people like Luis Rossman on Mac stuff, but I’ve done my fair amount of Chromebook repairs. Granted it’s been a few years, and most were dell and splash of HP/Lenovo. Hardware wise there’s not much to them, physically. Pretty easy with simple tools. However, the shimming/reloading the OS is a whole different monster. Dell was the easiest, but was still involved.

How much good attention it’s gotten. No microtransactions, season passes etc. It’s called a ton of attention to all the AAA enshitification since it’s released.

So, I’d imagine those studios are scrambling to shift gears.

Ive had overdraft off on my account since i opened it. However theres been a few things that still are allowed. My truck note is one of them, and state/federal/irs stuff im told would likely be allowed too. I once double paid my truck not on accident, and that was a fun trip to the bank to put a stop payment in.

Ya don’t need ATT’s modem. Some copy pasta I’ve put together:

If it’s fiber, you don’t need the modem. You’ll still need it once every few months.

Things you’ll need:

1. your own router
2. cheap 4 port switch (1gig pref)

Setup: Connect gpon (the little fiber converter box they installed on the wall near modem) wan to any port on 4port switch. Then from switch to gpon port of modem (usually red or green port). Make sure modem fully syncs. Once this happens, you can move the cable from the modem to your own routers wan port. Done! Allow router a few moments to sync as well.

Now, every once in a while they’ll send a line refresh signal that will break this, or if a power outage occurs. In such case, you’ll just plug back in their modem, move cable back to gpon port of modem, wait for sync. Move cable back to router.

Bonus: Hook up all this to a battery backup and you’ll have Internet even during power outages, at least for a while.

BG3 came in like a wrecking ball. Sucks for all the actual devs though.

Finally. Was something I’ve missed when I was using other distros with kde.

My wife still only uses Logitech track ball mice on her desktop. On the rare occasion I need to use her oc for something, it’s always an interesting time haha. Only takes about 10 seconds to be ‘calibrared’ to it now.

Last I looked, I couldn’t find a Linux version of Vivaldi. Which is strange as I’m pretty sure their beta releases did. Been a hot minute since I’ve looked again. Other than being chromium based, I liked what I seen. It’s almost like kde developed it with its staggering feature set lol.

ChromeOS is more of an OS built to optimize a browser though. Its close though.

What blows my mind about windows updates is just how long they take to actually install. It’s not even the reboots that bother me. Just the sheer time frames.

It will depend on the specific hardware, but I can vouche for openrgb. It works for me g502 hero mouse, and my asrok mobo/aio coolers fan RGB. Infact, I have more options than the motherboard gives me lol.

My new PC has 64g ram. But I’m also not using or plan to use windows. Checkmate M$!

But in all seriousness, 8g is like, the foundational minimum these days. Sad tbh. Browsers are so bloated these days. I’m surprised that browsers haven’t become their own OS yet. It kinda feels that way in some environments.
