That not how that shit is done.

The BIOS just take care of the basics, but Windows do have an API allowing the BIOS to ask for the installation of additional drivers. That process was abused (and continue to be) by multiple hardware vendors to install spywares or adwares.
Linux doesn't have that API, and just ignore such requests.

  1. You don't care, the cable will tell both device how much current can go through it using its e-marker chip.
  2. More and more cable comes with their specification engraved on at least one end.
    a. If no speed, assume usb2
    b. If no power, assume 10W (5V2A)

Yeah, sure, RT, Russia well known propaganda outlet, will be a good source for such event. 🙃

I'm gonna wait for actual journalists to cover that event.

Considering how it was flying on the video, it is most probably downed. But I'm a mere random citizen, I may be wrong.

That doesn't looks like a typical final nose dive attack pattern like we see on all those refineries strikes, more like an out of control UAV after being struck by air defense.

It is a bigger, don't have the Steam Controller dongle integrated, and you need to manually install SteamOS on it.

But you get a machine that can be upgraded way more easily than the Steam Machine, and a better GPU from the start.

On the other hand, they already sell it so high I ended up buying mine without RAM. I found 2x16Go for 125€ vs 180€ sold by Framework 😅. Same speed, but I can't compare CAS as Framework do not list them on their page.

Edit : some source claims DDR5 5600 C46 for those sold by Framework, which is the same as the ones I bought. So I consider myself lucky, despite the price hike (the same kit was 65-70€ last summer)

Hi there.

You probably expect some sort of brigading of some sort, or some ironic post to spite you or your values, but this is not. I don't share the provocations and general negativity that this new instance seems to have attracted.

I, for change, welcome you to the fediverse, in hope, maybe naive, that sharing a common ground would allow both of our community nembers to get out of our respective echo chambers and try to find our common values and get a better understanding of each other, rather than locking ourselves into our dogmas and differences.

Unfortunately, not everyone will share this goodwill, especially on a world as fractured as our is now, so I'll add a "good luck" handling all the stuff that are unfortunately coming your way, and hope you will not take it too badly.

We, on the left, have our share of tankies and idiots, and that's not going to change any time soon, but at least there are others that want to mend that broken world, even if it takes time.

Be well, stay kind, and good luck

A (French) leftist.

Removable batteries are coming back, as they become mandatory in the EU in 2027.
Or you can already get one with a Fairphone (which also has SD card slot).
As for the headphone jack, I'm afraid it won't come back. Bluetooth alternatives are far better these days (I got both, so I know from experience), and good adapters (like Apple one) are barely more than $10.

Hi friends,

There was many threads lately on that topic, and despite attempts at making all those threads follow the community rules, looks like it will be better to make a megathread in order to avoid drowning other topics under the constant updates about this.

You find bellow multiple sections, containing as much info as possible on every aspect of this topic, including the latest news (as well as older ones), and how to participate in fighting it (if you wish to).

The moderation, even if we do have our own personal opinion on the topic, will try to stay as neutral as possible, which mean all opinion (for or against) are welcome, as long as it respect the rules, especially rule 2.

As a special exception to rule 4, memes are welcome in the comment section, as I saw some good ones in various other topics, as soon as they respect rule 2.

I mostly used /e/os, so no slow charging, nor battery limit (until recently). I'm still leaning toward upgrading to the FP6 (still hesitating), this phone will either become my rom testbed, or my mother phone once hers die.

Congratulation, you are being upgraded. Please do not resist. And pay while we are at it.

It was at first, then they became a for profit organization, Xamarin, who was bought by Microsoft.

Problem is distance and autonomy.

You can't really command drones that far, they are programed with the coordinates, then launched. And to go far, you need to have more fuel, thus a heavier drone, which in turn will be easier to detect and target for AA systems.

It's a RISC they are not willing to take.

Tbh, maybe someone should try making an open-source dating app.

You know what, being a dev myself that's something I'll try as a hobby project. We'll see how it work out.
