Depends on your date format. For it to be a problem to begin with, you need to use a date format with “/” as the separator. If it’s 1st of Jan or Feb 1st then depends on the order.

And of course you need to enter an actual fraction, instead of like 0.5. This also narrows down the locations where this is an issue considerably. I think it’s mostly north America where fractions are more commonly used instead of decimals die to the imperial system, but there might be other places where it’s common, too, and I just don’t know about it.

The point isn’t that you’d expect to replace any of those things at 100k Miles. But you might just get unlucky and one of those things break. If it’s there, it can go bad, even if it probably won’t. Electric cars

This comes at the perfect time. I was thinking I’d have to find out how to run modloaders or managers on Linux, but I guess I got my answer right here. Thanks for posting!

The direct shortcut for opening task manager actually also had special handling for problematic situations. This includes low memory and high CPU.

I’ve had situations where the direct shortcut worked, but ctrl-alt-delete didn’t. Never had the opposite.

Ctrl-shift-esc opens task manager directly.

No Linux support though, which is a bummer these days.

I disagree with those saying that you can’t do a build for that budget, but I would suggest looking into used parts, at least for some things, to improve the result significantly.

Since your system goal doesn’t seem to be storage related, as nextcloud includes storage obviously, but typically isn’t used to house multi-terabyte data sets. So assuming you can make that work for the “future homelab projects” to with dual 500gig NVME as storage. Search for a used mITX board+CPU that can accommodate that (has the slots), and go from there. Things like CPU cooler, if not part of a possible mainboard+CPU bundle, should be selected after the case at that is the limiting factor for it. Didn’t skimp on RAM size if you can (new or used is fine, depends what you can get in your area).

With this list you’re basically done to get it up and running.

I mean for ksp2 saying it failed cause they had “no experience with this kind of work” is kind of weird, since neither did the ksp1 devs when they started that. And they didn’t fuck it up either, let alone this badly. Remember that it was a passion project of harvester, working at a PR firm that just happened to let him do it under their roof and employment. The company did not even have any basic experience in game development, arguably even software development in general.

There’s also PikaOS. It’s using Debian mechanics (so apt as the package manager and such), but a modern kernel and their own repos. If you’re more used to this world, might be worth a look. 8 didn’t know how well it’ll handle the controller and specific button inputs from the deck though.

I personally also came from a mostly debian background, but ended up going with CachyOS for my desktop needs (my deck is still on steam os). It’s arch based, and just very polished and well thought out. It has a version specifically for mobile consoles, like the steam deck.

If we assume normal, real world physics at work, and we have to as the game surely doesn’t model the stratosphere, he would not reach it even for a very very brief time as he’d have been evaporated from the heating at that speed well before getting to it.

You still need base CPU speed for a system to be usable. Try running a modern GPU on a 10 year old CPU. It’s even worse for some, where the GPU driver needs a relatively fast CPU for the GPU to run at full speed. Mostly Intel GPUs have this issue, which is sad cause they are the most affordable, but can’t be paired with an just an affordable CPU (or an older one).

And we’re very far away with RISC-V from the kind of performance your need to run modern games, or even decade old games. Let alone fully utilizing a high end GPU.

Finally! I was waiting for a version of the original zimaboard with a modern/competitive processor. Such a versatile little device.

This is highly dependent on where you are, and your ISP. I get new IPs basically daily. Even my ipv6 prefix changes daily for no reason other than to be annoying I guess. It’s infuriating, but somewhat convenient for privacy reasons (only).

If you’re into primarily gaming, try PikaOS. It’s Debian based and uses the same tooling, but it’s on an optimized kernel. Is generally geared toward gaming.

There are other gaming specific distros of course, this is just the “Debian”-related one. I would not recommend the real debian if you’re mainly into gaming. It’ll need manual intervention and/or optimization to get games running, or at least get them running well. It’s not impossible (it even hard if you’ve got but is Linux experience), but just harder than necessary.

You do know Heroic exists, right? It works perfectly fine.

And I prefer an open source solution integrating multiple platforms to a single closed solution per platform.

Also from Europe, gas is measured/billed in kWh here as well.

Ah yes the old classic “I don’t know what the actual problem is, but just waiting a bit seems to help”.

Kind of ironic for an article hosted on a site called “Linux links”.

I had no issue getting the app on my phone, but it wasn’t really working anymore. I’d also have to swap the battery and reprint the buttons again. I’m just waiting for the new pebble now, it’s only a few months now.

I had to stop wearing my pebble 2 hr when the software became too flaky to tolerate. Notifications would just randomly Go through or not, media controls would sometimes not work, and so on. But can’t wait to go back, as my alternatives are all fundamentally flawed.
