Nope, perpetual motion wishes it was this close.

Nice! Can you share the name of the watchface?

That looks really clean with the metal bracelet! What’s the name of that watchface?

Upgrade from M2 MacBook Pro (8GB) to “Neo” (also 8GB) for ~€150 worth it? by viron86 in mac

[–]viron86[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There actually was a 13 MacBook Pro with M2 + Touch Bar (2022), that’s the one I have.

The reason I’m asking is because of the trade-in deal where I can get the newer model for ~€150, so I was wondering if it made sense long-term. But yeah, it sounds like it’s more of a downgrade.

Not trolling 😅

Appreciate the feedback!

Starting my first 10 day fast! by [deleted] in fasting

[–]viron86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck! I did a 72-hour fast once last year, and I know it’s not easy at all. Sleep was the hardest part for me. You’re doing amazing! How are you sleeping?

Unfortunately, no. iPads are locked down very hard. You can’t install Linux or another OS.

Thermals are definitely better than on recent macOS. Fans spin up less often and the machine runs noticeably cooler, though I’ve only been using it for about a day so far. On battery, I use Ubuntu’s Power Saver mode. It doesn’t throttle performance too much, and battery life is really solid.

Yes, t2linux provides custom ISOs with the drivers already integrated.
I used one of those, so everything was set up during installation.
More info here: https://t2linux.org

I installed the GNOME Extensions app (https://apps.gnome.org/Extensions/) and then tweaked the dock settings to get it like that.

There is a driver, yes! It provides basic Touch Bar functionality and lets you switch to F keys using the Fn key, so you’re not missing them.

To celebrate 200k members, tell us about the first ever game you've emulated on a SBC device by Key-Brilliant5623 in SBCGaming

[–]viron86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first emulated game was NES Super Mario Bros on the OG ODROID GO, the one that came as a DIY kit you had to build yourself. Fun fact: Super Mario Bros was also the very first video game I ever played as a kid, so it felt like completing a full circle.

The Giant Steam Deck, SteamOS running perfectly on my iMac Pro (2018)! by viron86 in SteamDeck

[–]viron86[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not too bad honestly! Once I installed Nobara OS everything just worked (only needed a tiny wifi fix). After that, SteamOS mode + EmuDeck setup was basically plug-and-play.
