Pretty sure that page is just number of people looking at it not actually installed popularity. While CachyOS is the currently hyped distro it isn’t one a lot of people should be running. Ubuntu, Mint, and fedora all have more users than Cachy.
It really depends on the charge/discharge conditions that the particular test is using. You can do testing in the lab that is way harsher than typical usage or you can make it easier. In terms of this cycle testing for Li-ion I would say that typically the lab testing would be harsher than real world primarily because lab testing is done between 0% and 100% depth of discharge constantly where most people are charging their batteries much before then and only cycling them at high rates periodically.
It isn’t? All the slicers I’ve used for the past few years support it.
STEP is an ISO standard so it isn’t like you are paying licensing like you might with Parasolid which is owned by Siemens.
HARD NO. First off STL needs to go away and STEP files need to become the norm for sharing 3D print files.
Second, I don’t trust most people to create a properly printable file with or without supports, don’t add more crap to a hard to edit format that I’ll have to deal with to ensure success. There are just too many people out there that don’t know what they are doing.
I hate this suggestion but it is the only one I’ve been able to stomach as something that operates like Nova: Microsoft Launcher
Its actually quite decent and mostly seems to be a forgotten piece of software so it hasn’t been enshitified.
Agreed, I did something similar where I did 3 courses in 7 weeks and that was by far the worst and most stressful time of my entire degree. Anything more probably would have caused a nervous breakdown.
This article title is a bit confusing. WD cards are only going away because their parent company SanDisk decided to amalgamate their offering into one brand (which makes sense to me, I never understood the WD SD cards when SanDisk is the trusted brand). Totally different circumstances.
now on the 4th update it keep failing for some reason.
Running an Arch based distro comes with a commitment to learning “the Arch way”. You need to be willing to look at the terminal output of pacman and see what the errors mean. Being close to bleeding edge means that on occasion something will fail or end up in a state that you need to resolve. Its usually easy, but you need to pay attention to what pacman is telling you. If that isn’t something someone is interested in there are plenty of other excellent distros out there that will meet their needs.
Make it infeasible to run Windows on your personal machines by limiting how long you can use the hardware, but conveniently support it as a cloud vm service that is always guaranteed to work with a monthly subscription.
I’m beginning to think this is all a conspiracy to try to kill Windows because Microsoft doesn’t want to support a desktop OS anymore.
“But shareholders expect a new phone every year…”
I agree, the changes year after year are so minor at this point that a 2 year cycle is enough. Just look at the S26 that Samsung just announced, they are rightly getting criticised for how little they changed. Heck, they have been using the same image sensors for like 4 years now.
I was picturing more like a custom ROM on XDA: “Bugs? You tell me.”
There are a couple ways to approach this. Find a couple “one pot” or “one pan” meals and try those to get a healthy balanced meal without feeling overwhelmed. Soups and stews can be great for this.
Otherwise a meal should have a protein (e.g. meat or beans), veggie(s), and a carb. Keep it simple if you want to focus on being healthy. Also instead of trying to time everything cook each element separately and reheat when you are ready to eat. I’d do something like:
Obviously this takes longer, but gaining confidence is more important than speed. Also know that even good cooks mess up occasionally and have things come out bad. These are learning opportunities, don’t get put off of trying again because of a couple failires (on that note watch Glen and Friends cooking on Youtube, he shows mistakes and has the right attitude to dealing with them)
Unpopular opinion, but all nonstick cookware has a limited lifespan, get something inexpensive and Teflon and expect to replace it away every couple years. For the most part do your cooking in stainless steel, carbon steel, or cast iron cookware which are all fairly nonstick of you have good technique and save the Teflon for more challenging foods or when you can’t be bothered to wait for a pan to heat properly.
I really noticed when I switched from Spotify to Tidal that there is something different about Spotify’s sound quality that makes it worse even at the highest streaming quality. I was surprised since I fully admit that in 99% of cases I can’t tell the difference between a 128kbps MP3 and a FLAC of the same file.
I honestly used AI for something other than summarizing a meeting yesterday. It failed so miserably that I’m really not apt to use it again. Maybe I was wrong to assume it could summarize a simple graph into a table for me.
Tangled spools are a user caused issue 99.9% of the time. About the only way a spool could be tangled out of the box is if the manufacturer had to manually rewind it and they screwed up.
I typically build a whole new PC and then do a mid-life GPU upgrade after a couple generations. e.g. I just upgraded my GPU I bought in late 2020. For most users there just isn’t a good reason to be upgrading your CPU that frequently.
I can see why some people would upgrade their GPU every generation. I was suprised at how expensive even 2 generations old card are going for on ebay, if you buy a new card and sell your old one every couple years the “net cost per year” of usage is pretty constant.
I’ve got the same experience, never really had any issues with moisture for either PLA or PETG.
Sorry, this is a pet peeve of mine, DACs don’t/shouldn’t affect sound quality, they are just chips that convert a digital signal into the correct analog signal and even dirt cheap ones can do that far better than human hearing is capable of discerning. It is the amp circuit that can have different audio qualities depending on how well or poorly it is implemented.
