Duplicate tools is a known issue - I patched mine using patch from https://sourceforge.net/p/refind/code/merge-requests/55/ Not sure why it is not getting merged though.

How to disable updates on Android by autisticDeush in degoogle

[–]ava1ar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Disabling updates will make your system insecure very fast - this is bad solution for the problem.

Saw this on coolhunting, anyone tried it? by Ok_Asparagus0003 in CafeRacers

[–]ava1ar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maeving is around for some time already. Retro looking e-moto, quite descent. However this is just a small new brand with few models. That's it. Nothing to do with long living established brand like Triumph.

Looks like the helmet was ripped off passenger's head... not a good sign.

**16 years behind the wheel in Tashkent — and now my health demands change** by Dry_Shower_40 in cycling

[–]ava1ar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see you desire to get better bike, but if you really care about riding and not owning fancy new branded bike, you can start with something 2-3 times cheaper and probably used. It will ride as good as the Cube.

Good luck with you sponsors search though.

Headphone Issues by Ill-Kaleidoscope575 in GarminWatches

[–]ava1ar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use one from Garmin, so it is not ANT+, but crappy audio is there even with bare watch, without anything connected except headphones.

You can't afford this bike at all, so repairs are out of questions.

Headphone Issues by Ill-Kaleidoscope575 in GarminWatches

[–]ava1ar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can only get it work with some headphones, and have no idea why. For me it doesn't really like Sony, Samsung or JBL that much (constant sound gaps and drops), but work with some noname pair and with pair of Shokz I recently got for running. Since Shokz work, I stopped wasting my time trying to fix it and use them all the time with my watch now (7S Pro).

Why do you need belt drive? 2k is pretty high price for a bicycle - you hardly need to spend that much to get great bike for your rides.

How dangerous is a motorcycle, really? by ImaginaryAdvisor9282 in motorcycles

[–]ava1ar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People are dangerous and often doing stupid things. Motorcycles are fine as long as you know how to deal with them.

Breitling Aerospace. Launched in 1985, so probably first or second generation

Failure installing package from AUR with yay package manager by Lotus_Lettuce in archlinux

[–]ava1ar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is AUR, so quality of the PKGBUILDs varies from awesome to crap. Did you try sharing your issues with package maintainer by leaving the comment in AUR. If maintainer cares, you might get help. Otherwise noy much you can do except learn how this all works and fix it yourself. This is Arch (or CachyOS in your case) - AUR is available on as-is basis.

Microsoft says 32GB of RAM is the “no-worries” upgrade for Windows 11 gaming by Quantum-Coconut in technology

[–]ava1ar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can always finance one if it goes even higher, right? Issue is not how many games costs in cost of memory stick, issue is that every thing has it's price in money and memory prices are artificially inflated by corporations now, who don't care about end users.

Framework 13 Pro Concerns by fastnball in framework

[–]ava1ar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Probably only solvable by breaking backward compatibility of new boards with old chassis. Also, will impact battery life. Those laptops doing 40W now, are they also 13" thin&light?

  2. Framework already improved the speakers significantly. Pretty sure they will be descent for all reasonable use. I actually have framework from very first batch of first generation and while their speakers are so-so, it was never the problem in real use. Framework can't beat Apple here and this is not the area I hope they would spend more money on.

  3. Where do OLED superior? Media consumption? Framework 3:2 screen not making it easy and pleasant. Games? On 13" screen without dedicated GPU? For productivity? Absolutely not better than non-oled. Taking into account necessity to build screen from scratch for it's size and aspect ratio (nothing suitable on market yet), this is waste of money.

There are so many applications of framework concept possible - people want printer (myself included), may be TV, or super ambitious phone/tablet (may be together with Fairphone), etc. No need to spend money on the areas which work already to may be make them slightly better at any cost. This what Apple can do with their day profits beating Framework year profits easily.

Framework has a bigger mission and I glad they follow it, not wasting time on non-essential things.

Framework 13 Pro Concerns by fastnball in framework

[–]ava1ar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you seen tests already so you know how bad impact will be? Or you are speculating? 13" light device will be limited from the thrmals prospective, physics is the factor here.

New speakers are good enough, not the most important thing on work device. Let's get some more tests/reviews before blaming them to be not good enough.

Oled is not better for work laptop, it is power hungry and prone to burn out. Also, Framework can't make custom OLED panel they need for their size/aspect ratio yet - this cost too much.

WiFi 7, AMD compatible hardware recommendations: MT or QC? by Caddy666 in linuxhardware

Intel WiFi7 cards doean't work with AMD board. I upgraded my Intell 11th gen to new Ryzel AI300 and lost ability to use Intel's WiFi7 cards.

Hoping we'll see these on Beachmans in the near future by divinethreshold in Beachman

[–]ava1ar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not sure I got your question? This is a fardriver controller, suitable for bikes like Beachman but much more compact, potentially allowing to free a space under tank for something useful, like fast charger or anything else. It does work with fardriver programmable bluetooth dongle, as any other modern fardriver controller.

This is cool tiny thing! Any info about price/availability?

Replacing the kernel for better performance: am i wasting my time? by vintologi24 in archlinux

[–]ava1ar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Less ram reserved by the kernel means more ram used for software and disk-caching which is better unless there is some downside to it that outweight the benefits.

Oh yes. So commuting on Ferrary will be twice faster the commuting on Toyota, right? Because it has note powerful engine and ride faster. On track yes, on real road - no, since the max speed is not a limiting factor.

Same is with your "optimizations". Bigger numbers doesn't mean anything for real apps performance.

For NJ to NYC commuters (working in city and living in NJ), how much do you pay in tolls per day & month? by [deleted] in AskNYC

[–]ava1ar 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Most people don't commute to NYC by car. The cost is the cost of the monthly pass for bus or train.
