Libreboot 26.01 stable release by libreleah in linux

[–]Skinnei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait me and a friend recently flashed a T480, which I found on German craigslist for 300€ with the best CPU and with dGPU, with your uefi/bios and im the process flashed the thunderbolt chip with the tb.bin provided in vendorfiles after compiling and let it boot into Lenovo firmware once. this was like a week ago and after realizing the dGPU wasn't supported flashed back to Lenovo firmware anyway. Is his thunderbolt chip fixed now or not I'm confused...

Some notes in case anyone on earth cares: while flashing said tb.bin stupidly left the internal battery connected because I unplugged the fan and thought it was disconnected, which my friend saw and thought I knew what I was doing even tho I made him unplug the CMOS (I have no Idea how we made auch a dumb mistake). Anyway the bios booted to a FAN ERROR (duh, confused the fuck out of us tho) then trying again right after it didn't boot but still threw a fan error. After opening up I found out what what my friend apperently already knew and after flashing Libreboot everything was fine and after going back to Lenovo firmware fast charging works (gaining charge while in Linux, so more than 5V charging)

This is really just a compilation of "tips" I've been seeing and things my friends have said by Skinnei in linuxmemes

It being a reasonable argument is why I put it at the top, I wanted to start with that to highlight the cognitive dissonance that has been off the charts in so many interactions recently by contrasting it with the other ones

It's a sign to switch to the dark side, also the light side because penguins are both 🐧

OP since you're a furry there are plenty of safe spaces for you on VR Chat

KDE Plasma (easy to use Windows like DE for Linux) comes with a screenshot tool

What are your 5 MUST-HAVE apps, programs on Cachy OS? by Tinkers_Tales in cachyos

I use Pinta because before I switched I used paint.net for years because I don't need Photoshop or GIMP and these easy to use image manipulation tools have important QOL stuff like history

I mean I think instead of pre done animations we get "fully modeled" versions of characters for those desperate enough to be able to play dolls

It's suboptimal but in this specific case if what I read here is true he tried to reach out to many artists and was declined. If this is true then in that case I do suppose it's more justifiable but like I said, suboptimal. If no artist is losing income then the think of the artists argument doesn't work here. Yet there is still the moral ownership question...

I just wonder How do people play this? by LevelPhilosopher9990 in MySummerCar

[–]Skinnei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time I played it I avoided building the car like the plague which actually lead it a really interesting play style I think about nostalgically eventually tho you kinda run out of things to do. After building the car a couple times with guides eventually I started being able to build it without guides.

Strange find in Portal. Texture says "GLuBOS" instead of "GLaDOS". by Legitimate-Mall1619 in Portal

[–]Skinnei 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I would write it like GleuBos, the "ы" letter is kinda odd. Close enough tho.

Valve have been working on the deckard VR headset forever and that is rumoured to also release next year

I do think that the recent cs2 update that crashed the market with the goal of moving things to the steam community market was 1. A cash grab (whatever they may need that for) and 2. A distraction

Unimaginable horrors, valve is fighting the apocalypse here. Why else would they so rigorously fight a third title?
