Every time I see this, it reminds me that webp is not good, it's just better. And that an author of webp likely kept JPEG XL out of Chrome. What could have been..

Thank you, that helps. Was conscription going on outside of Japan at the time?

Honest question, but where in 1932? Asia sure, but Europe?

For those using an Elite controller, Bazzite handles the back paddles nicely (on Bluetooth in the Plasma version).

Your budget will play a role. I 100% agree with people saying don't get computer speakers if you're looking for quality, but the catch is they need to be powered.

I did a bunch of research and got the below on sale after a few reccos and agonizing over specs. For reference, previously I have used spreadsheets to tune a room to a flat frequency response with my own custom crossover designs, so... I'm picky.

I've been happy with my choice. And since they are fairly portable, they are versatile. Also used them with a Midi keyboard and a portable projector.

The implementation doesn't sound terrible.

  • It's opt-in
  • It's basically a sidebar chat window

So if you already use GPT for day-to-day, it may be a welcome experience. If you don't, don't opt in.

I'm skeptical of GPT add-ons, bit at least this was done in a low-bloat opt-in way (which allows Mozilla to bring in revenue (probably)).

Wool, cotton, etc, all don't need ironing. Just don't over dry and hang them up right away.

Gauge matters in some setups, especially over longer lengths, this is overly generalizing.

The Firefox for Android GitHub releases aren't being updated anymore, and is versions behind the Play Store now.

FDroid Fennec isn't fully the same app, and FDroid has it's own set of delays.

Is there a location where the latest version can be pulled/tracked with Obtainium?

This may violate the "low-effort" rule, but I thought readers might enjoy (remove if not, of course). This particular Android app Privacy Policy shows how the "one size fits all" of the Play Store doesn't always make sense.

Hey all,

In the market for a GPU, would like to use Bazzite, mostly a Steam user with some SteamVR (rare), and have run into nvidia issues with Bazzite and a 3070 previously.

With the recent news on nVidia's beta drivers and Plasma's sync support in beta, I'm newly on the fence about switching to AMD given nvidia having a better performance to cost ratio, the power usage (big one for a compact living room system), and the fact that they have the potential for HDMI2.1 support which AMD doesn't have a solution to yet.

What are community thoughts? I'll probably hold out for some reports on the new drivers regardless, but wanted to check in with the hive mind.

Thanks!

Hi all,

Hoping someone can help me out here. I just did the upgrade, I've updated my ENV variables, and started, and I get:

2024-05-18T19:13:07.047224829Z 2024-05-18T19:13:07.046998Z  INFO migrate_04: pict_rs::repo::migrate: Running checks

I then proceed to get the following item for 110,670 files:

And then pict-rs just exits.

Turning on debug gives me more info, but nothing helpful after each of the above errors:

Any idea how to get pict-rs started? Or what I should look to for figuring this out.

Edit: Scanning the logs more closely I see that I never get the Migration complete message from here https://git.asonix.dog/asonix/pict-rs/src/commit/d45e3fa386e62e0538b3d7ba399ceaec80fdd7ca/src/repo/migrate.rs#L175, but I do get percentage completes up to Migration 59% complete - 213698/362224. Nothing else indicates, though.

Dumb question, but new to cycling, and the person at the store adjusted the height of the back via the tab. The Trek manual and video are absolute garbage, so we can't figure out how. Can anyone help?

Edit

To provide some context given the messages below. I was a professional photographer, and understand that getting a good photo is a skill. Exposure time, timing, location, and many other factors come into play when capturing a great image.

Seeing the aurora was a fantastic experience. The purpose of this post is to help reduce FOMO of those who could not see it. Many people who don't know these things will imagine dancing lights in the sky of brilliance, and will be saddened by what they missed. While they did miss something, it's important for them to know exactly what they missed.

Edit2 I should also note this is why I enjoy when photographers post gear, conditions, and settings alongside results. It tells viewers what was real.

So I'm guessing this has as much to do with a newer version of OpenRGB as the distro change, but I moved from Ubuntu 20.04 to Debian 12.

I've installed OpenRGB via the deb on the site. Running sudo openrgb -l -vv I get this at the end:

2: ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING
  Type:           Motherboard
  Description:    ASUS Aura USB Device
  Version:        AULA3-AR42-0207
  Location:       HID: /dev/hidraw0
  Serial:         9876543210
  Modes: [Direct] Off Static Breathing Flashing 'Spectrum Cycle' Rainbow 'Chase Fade' Chase
  Zones: 'Aura Mainboard' 'Aura Addressable 1'
  LEDs: 'Aura Mainboard, LED 1' 'Aura Mainboard, LED 2' 'Aura Mainboard, LED 3' 'Aura Mainboard, RGB Header 1' 'Aura Mainboard, RGB Header 2'

But it no longer finds my fans via the standard ARGB controller. The RGB controller and on-board LEDS for the mobo work fine. I've tried every combination of switching "Zone", "LED", and "Mode" with no luck.

I do have an orp file that used to work if that helps? The strings output for anything ASUS are the same between the old one and a new one I made. So the devices exist in both, right? Here is an example:
