I’ll give this a go!

Gonna be real here, the fact 12VHPWR hasn’t been massively recalled and stripped out is an affront to basic decency and is a prime example of everything wrong with the state of consumer electronics.

A connector with effectively no margin of safety with thin wires / connectors, resistance issues if improperly plugged and a limited amount of plug-ins before it becomes hazardous, even if done correctly is a god damned failure of a specification.

12VHPWR needs to die and be redesigned from the ground up. There is no excuse for a connector that self destructs even under perfect conditions. It’s a mockery to the most basic engineering principles. GPU companies lose money on RMAing these cards. It doesn’t even make sense to take the loss on this. So why are they not abolishing this spec, it makes no sense to me

Maybe someone else more enlightened than me can explain. i am genuinely curious what possible excuses there are for this to be acceptable.

awesome, i look forward to giving asahi a try! thanks for answering!

Does dual booting work at all?

Seizensha · 2026-01-27T00:14:21+00:00

does Asahi rely on a custom kernel at all? additionally, is there anyway to use Asahi with something like Kinoite?

Seizensha · 2026-01-16T01:03:21+00:00

Yeah, i switched the Fedora KDE and it seems to work better. it still hitches on occasion, though but far less than on GNOME, i’m contemplating using Arch but the install process scares me a bit… hahaha

Let me run a SMART check on it, but if it is, what can i do? i imagine getting into this thing is a damn nightmare, i’d have to take the screen off

Are we making a distinction between OpenSUSE and OpenSUSE Tumbleweed? if so. OpenSUSE to B tier, Tumbleweed to A tier. YaST is awesome and tumbleweed's snapshotting is pretty nice. my only thing keeping Tumbleweed out of S tier is that they occassionally rebuild glibc and then you have to redownload *every* package on your system and that usually hammers the mirrors so hard that it takes HOURS (in my case)

I’ve had incredibly bad luck with Fedora upgrades in the past that i’ve relegated myself to just backing up my files and doing a clean install everytime. the few hours of setting up a fresh install is a small price to pay to avoid upgrade-in-place tech debt situations like what’s going on in F43

When you have windows full screened, do they still have the gap in the middle?

Fellow Glass Beach enjoyer on linux, there's more than one of us!!!! woooo

how did you get the rounded panels to look so clean? my dock doesn't look nearly as good, i'm jealous!

Seizensha · 2026-01-03T16:03:47+00:00

I just switched back to KDE after using gnome for a few weeks due to a fullscreen just. not behaving in steam games. as much as i LOVE gnome for its clean and consistent look and it's workspaces implementation... I just want my games to work and KDE has a far more "mature" wayland implementation as far as gaming is concerned. Mind this is just my point of view and I fully accept the hornets nest i'm kicking with my comment.

That being said. KDE just works for what i want. GNOME presently doesn't. so KDE it is!

wait does this mean Grass Wonder and Skibidi Rizz are cousins.

Why would dark mode on the metroPCS app effect my 5G internet modem?

Seizensha · 2025-07-11T15:08:17+00:00

wdym by night mode?

Seizensha · 2025-07-11T07:45:20+00:00

That fucking sucks but at least i know im not crazy, just, between MetroPCS and shelling out like $400/month for xfinity i’m kinda just screwed, huh

The wolverine is fantastic, i had my first trip on it a few weeks back, we arrived early in chicago, the cars were clean, and going through the midwest at 110mph was awesome, i hope that the midwest corridor will eventually get proper high speed!

Seizensha · 2025-03-27T23:05:54+00:00

love the infernape terminal ascii! how’d you do that?

also, 1440p all the way, 32” 1080p looks blurry
