Good point.

But still, the 30% efficient supercomputer.

The article does specify that it would report if the newest version of the firmware for the CPU family is not installed, so it doesn’t seem like this is that particular kind of BS.

Sure the threat model is different, I’m just saying it’s still a single point of failure.

Neat, wasn’t familiar with cover your tracks, super useful!

I mean yes, but currently they’re all dependent on Windows, so its less of centralizing OSes, and more changing what its centralized on.

I’ve never had an issue with Flatseal in mint. Out of curiosity, what was your issue?

Oh I understood wikifunctions primarily as a way to operate on wikidata data, I don’t know if that’s right. And you’re right it is publically available, I guess I meant more that few few folks know about it.

Wikidata is so cool, but not really public-exposed. I imagine it’s an incredible research tool though.

Yikes that’s almost as bad.

When you’re supposed to choose between siding with the Mages and Templar, it tells you to go back to the war room, which I assume should activate some kind of cutscene…but nothing happens. You just get to choose more missions on the map. I can’t tell how far back it bugged out, even if I go back to before starting that questline, I get the same issue.

From the steam forums, it seems like this has been a known bug since at least the original steam release :/

Seconded. Newsflash does everything I need and looks pretty smooth.

Some toasters can’t.

Well, the size estimate on flathub assumes that you’re installing every dependency, which only happens if it’s the first app you’re installing with this FreeDesktop version, which is rare. I have like 15 flatpak apps installed, all of which had a claimed install of over “1 GB”, but the flatpak install directory is only like 2 or 3 GB.

There’s just not a great way to predict how big an install will actually be from flathub.

Edit: just to give you an idea, since its only downloading the deltas, most of these “1 GB download size” Flatpak apps are downloading less than 100 MB

I was playing through Inquisition for the first time earlier this year, and 30h in the main questline broke, and I cant proceed…a real bummer.

It says possibly snap, so we can hope…

I actually use GIMP regularly these days, I found Scribus harder. Yes, Inkscape is more friendly. It doesnt follow the Adobe paradigm, but it’s pretty quick to learn and is closer to the Adobe layout than other software.

The only thing that’s kinda funky in Inkscape is cropping, which is done via “clipping”, using another polygon to mask the component below. The selectable image stays the same size (but mostly invisible), making automatic alignment kinda annoying. However, thats for bitmap images, and Inkscape is meant to be vector-first, so that’s not the end of the world.

Not familiar with HeliumOS specifically, but for a generic atomic distro I would try layering Python temporarily, and then getting rid of it when you’re done.

Ive tried Scribus, and found the interface very hard to get used to. For folks coming from Adobe, I find Inkscape the easiest for design. I would use a separate program for cropping, I don’t have a great recommendation for that.

Fusion used to work but autodesk changed the redirects in their login system, so it no longer does…

Tragic. Especially since there’s no reason Fusion couldn’t be a webapp or PWA, autodesk already made it annoyingly cloud-focused.

Is that true? I thought that pairs of USB-A ports shared the same PCIe lanes, and USB-C each got their own set?

Edit: thinking about it a bit more, I suppose it could depend on how the SOC/chipset allocates those lanes, but in my experience when writing a single USB I’m usually limited by the thermals of the USB, and writing well below the speed of the port. I suppose if you were writing many at once (or if your USBs were nice) that could bottleneck on the port speed.
