@beehaw.orgRun this command to see what version of the vulkan API you're on: vulkaninfo | head -n 5
Proton 8 requires vulkan 1.3 compatibility. I'm guessing the drivers you're using (or maybe the drivers nvidia has published?) don't have support for it.
50-60% of my initial attempts at connecting to something via bluetooth is my accidentally selecting the wrong device. I'd say maybe you're one of my neighbors but I definitely wasn't up at 5am.
The climate crisis isn't a tragedy of the commons and I haven't actually heard this claim be made yet (but I admittedly avoid listening to oil companies speak).
The break room fridge and microwave sure are though. Stop bringing fish into work. You know who you are.
You said you don't need a battery, do you already have one or are you always using it plugged in? And if you're always using it plugged in why not a desktop?
Not at critique at all you just piqued my curiosity. I'm excited cause you got a new toy.
I'd recommend avoiding Epic Games, they seem to love breaking Linux compatibility. Publishers that force you to use their launcher, even if you have steam, can be annoying sometimes.
I'd suggest an AMD graphics card if possible. It just makes things simpler. I think Nvidia is still having issues with Wayland.
There were apparently 2 different MX150 chips with very different power consumption (10w vs 25w), core clocks (937mhz vs 1468mhz), and memory bandwidth (40GB/s vs 48GB/s). I don't think either of these are going to play GTA5 well, but the 10w part is probably much worse. Can you confirm which one you've got?
Most of that going to get eaten by transaction fees. Is Elon still involved in a transaction processor?
Apple makes such weird decisions with their hardware sometimes. Like running the trackpad and keyboard off the Bluetooth controller in some models. I think it's intentional just to make other OSes less compatible sometimes.
In college I was an apple certified tech and I had to replace a hard drive in a MacBook one day. The wireless card was glued to the top of it. No clue why. What was a 6 screw procedure on every other laptop vendor at the time was 20+ screws and 15 minutes of gentle prying on that thing.
I once wrote some software that replaced almost an entire accounting department. No bonuses were paid, no salaries increased for the few remaining people, it just went into the shareholders pockets. The company was already very profitable before this.
