Totally. I would skip anything to do with Android altogether and just use Linux.

Piracy 😇

They have a good DSP for sure, but those speakers on their own can get louder than any other laptop I’ve ever heard while maintaining pretty decent clarity (to my layperson ears). The DSP can help with the clarity and quality, but the actual loudness and hardware capabilities also seems better.

Oh, also speakers. Apple puts decent speakers in their laptops. The FW 16 had worse sound than many phones that I’ve had.

I use it because Apple is the only manufacturer that understands that laptops need great displays, keyboards, and trackpads. Most other laptop manufacturers fail in one or all of those categories. The new Framework 13 may be an exception to this, but as someone that bought the 16, that was hot garbage. So I gave it up for a Macbook.

With Asahi, I have a rock-solid Linux experience on a laptop with good build quality.

Don’t worry. Servo is coming along and isn’t headed by a weird guy. Slow and steady wins the race.

Riots for just causes like racial equality and anti-fascism are good, actually ☺️

But god damn, you must live in another reality if you somehow believe movements for justice are somehow the biggest disruption to elections and not the jackboot thumbs kidnapping people and sending them to concentration camps. I hope you snap out of it.

Check the Daniel Berntsson of this. As a bonus, the list contains other fascist creeps to avoid.

It’s a customizable IR receiver, yeah.

Was it harassment to acknowledge your online name?

You’re sadly mistaken if you think the people that rightly don’t like your heinous behaviour are kiwi farmers.

But sure, everyone that doesn’t like you just happens to be bad people from a stinky Nazi forum. Whatever you need to tell yourself.

Also, hi AdmiralPatrick’s alt 🙂

I’ve always found CEC to be insufficient. If you need to access anything more than directional nav, enter, and back, you can’t. I have CEC on my Linux machine, but I leave it off because it just can’t do most of what I need it to.

Don’t forget Genetec!

The Flirc receiver is the best $25 I’ve ever spent. You can use it with basically any TV remote and turn it into a decent PC input device.

You can map any app with decent keyboard navigation support to work with up, down, left, right, enter, etc. and get a pretty seemless TV experience.

I’m currently using Bazzite with Steam’s Big Picture mode, yes. I’d like to switch to Plasma Bigscreen, but I’m not sure it’s ready just yet. I keep trying it on my laptop every few weeks, but there are some crashes I keep running into.

I can’t wait to switch away from Steam Big Picture mode though, as it’s pretty tedious adding shortcuts and having to use a Decky plugin to download art for them. It’s very apparent that Steam isn’t meant to be used this way (even though once you set it up, it’s not bad). Plasma Bigscreen just reads the .desktop entries, which is a lot better.

I use a Linux machine that boots to a big picture interface with these apps:

• Jellyfin Desktop client (pirate everything)
• VacuumTube (YouTube TV interface with adblocking)

And I use a Flirc receiver so I can use a remote for all of it.

Did I? And why would that matter?

Also, what do you think the report button is for?

Edit: I see you’re not interested in moderating and are more invested in playing games. Banning ethno-nationalist posts is a pretty low bar, and you’ve tripped over yourself to avoid clearing it.

Remove the post. Remove the user. Don’t let Zionazis post their shit here.
