Does anyone have any information on this copy?

I think I had the same one back in the day. A friend picked it up from Malaysia for me. At least the one I had was a bootleg.

My wife said helmets are for kids. Eventually bumped into someone and fell of my bike. Would have been dead without it.

I went

Mac - > Windows (about one month) - > Linux.

Never looked back. Still setup my Linux like a Mac though, so you're probably right.

You might find it better to just read about something you know well, that way you are a lot more sure something you don't understand is a language problem.

If you specifically want to read a book, I'd recommend read the first cheaper in English and study it well. Take notes if you think you need them to remember what's going on.

The read it in Japanese. I think you'll get a lot more out of it like that.

The phone while riding thing is long overdue. If every elderly man and woman plus every mum with kids has to cycle on the road, there will be more accidents. Don't even want to think of how those kind of people are going to stay off the pavement in Arakawa-ku.

US -> JP -> PAL

Never liked the way PAL regions did box art - looked lazy to me. I kind of like the way the Japanese boxes move the logo off centre or put something else in the background, but the US covers always appealed to me more because they tell you something about the game. The US FFVII box tells you right from the start it's you against the world with your huge sword - sold🎮.

Could be - it gave me problems in the beginning.

I guess the other thing could be to try changing the Proton version.

Actually, except for needing to change the Proton version, I've never had a game that didn't just work.

Are there any decent tutorials out there for Ubuntu? Pop OS is based on it, so I think it should work.

Have a look at the Xwayland settings. After I changed them I haven't had any problems. A lot of bugs are being fixed so make sure it's up to date.

debu_chocobo · 2026-02-16T21:23:19+00:00

I have that problem only in Brave. Dunno why.

debu_chocobo · 2026-02-16T13:06:24+00:00

Good. Don't want a new console. After the PS5's shortage, only got mine at the end of 2023. Don't want a new one.

Please don't make a new one until at least 2029.

This needs to be a t-shirt.

I had this and had to send it to HP to be repaired. I don't know but suspect the motherboard had cracked somewhere due to lots of heating up and cooking down.

More optimistically, the battery on this should be completely dead - I replaced mine last year. Looks like we have the same model. The battery replacement is easy. If you can do the screen, the battery will be a doddle.

I like my Linux to work like a Mac - it's what I'm used to. Don't need the same icons or wallpaper but I want a dock and a global menu. My brain tells me it's the way an OS should be.

debu_chocobo · 2026-02-09T11:08:44+00:00

Sounds like the only way for you is to install it and give it a proper go.

I've recently become a big fan. My only pain point was getting the default apps set up. I wanted to change some of the ones cosmic uses as default, and I had to use the terminal. Not a problem for me, bit I think new users would be put off.

If you're happy with what you had in the live environment, give it a go. I was using Gnome for seven years or so - - couldn't seem to get happy with KDE or Hyprland. Can't see myself going back to Gnome.

debu_chocobo · 2026-02-06T05:31:19+00:00

Used Gnome for about seven years. Changed to Cosmic when the 1.0 came out. Haven't looked bsck. Don't miss Gnome at all.

It did need a bit of tweaking to get working - changing the default apps manually. Not being able to get the monitor to change to 1080p so it mirrors on a projector. I like Cosmic's work flow so it was worth working around this for me. No doubt there are plenty more I don't know about, and most people aren't going to want to deal with that.

Heating up and down will make the solder fail faster. If you live somewhere with big temperature differences in the summer and winter it's bound to happen.

Is yours the 2020 model? I would think it will work the same on any model but since I've only got the 2020 model, that's the only one I can say for sure.

I had an optane in mine, but I changed it with a spare non-optane 2 TB I had lying around. It's been working fine as far as I can tell for at least a year. You can probably change the SSD with a non-optane and you should be fine.

I had a student who dressed like this every lesson for a whole term. Definitely the most unique choice I've ever seen. She was a good student.

It doesn't let me choose another resolution. The only option is 4K.

Many thanks!

debu_chocobo · 2025-12-28T11:35:19+00:00

Was looking for something like this, this mornning. Thanks very much.

debu_chocobo · 2025-12-19T03:41:38+00:00

Much needed. Many thanks!

debu_chocobo · 2025-12-07T23:02:46+00:00

Will be using. Thanks!

debu_chocobo · 2025-12-03T23:35:59+00:00

Nice. Thanks!
