So happy with my 2nd hand Pixel 8. No BS, ecologically acceptable IMHO and yes runs most Android apps thanks to GrapheneOS.

You jest but it’s a thing https://cooldowns.dev/

what breaks the immersion

This isn’t a game, it’s about your freedom, our freedom.

If you want to use Brave to watch YouTube… well I don’t think you really care. The fact that somehow watching a video on a gaming rig isn’t fast enough so clearly not normal. That being said honestly it’s good you did try.

Artwork idea : load thermostat.

You can’t start a new application if your room is above a temperature threshold.

Extension artwork idea : load credits.

If you do delegate some load to a non digital form, e.g reading a paper book instead of watching a movie, then you “earn” some credits you might use to bypass the load thermostat “when you really need it”.

Measure your system, e.g. Zigbee thermometer for your actual room power draw so the plug for your entire system, computer obviously but also screen, speakers, etc even AirCo unit or physical fans if you have some for the room itself.

That’s the only way to know what is actually happening.

If you do not want to go down that path then the heuristic is simple : the heavier the load on either CPU, or GPU, or obviously both, the higher the temperature. If you have a dynamic system, anything built this last few decades or so, then the fans will not kick in under a threshold which you can consider won’t significantly heat up your room.

TL;DR: if you start to hear fans spinning, you have to reduce your load.

Sorry to be that guy but… why? The whole motivation behind PDF is precisely NOT to be edited, NOT to be responsive, but rather to provide the SAME output, mostly text based, anywhere and everywhere.

I’m not saying she shouldn’t edit PDF but I also have to clarify it is not "normal’.

I’ll refrain from recommending anything before actually understanding the motivation behind her workflow.

FWIW bought my Pixel 2nd hand

I’m not familiar with lcpi but I’d ask in https://github.com/apprenticeharper/DeDRM_tools/issues as it’s quite active despite not being maintained.

Alpine in container is typically considered the smallest one can conveniently use (not going through LinuxFromScratch or writing your own OS). I did some tinkering a while back ending up with 14.29MiB memory footprint.

I’m not sure you’re understanding my perspective so I can make it explicit : I took their comment as snarky, not helpful, trying to make their view as objective without helping me and others understanding why their position was better.

Were you not condescending? Don’t you believe you started this?

You could have said :

• Revenue is not precise enough, operational profit would be a better metric
• Operational profit is more representative of the situation and for HP it’s [insert value]

or basically anything that prompts a discussion by kindly clarifying.

Instead you basically said “Apples are not oranges” and now you are saying replies are toxic.

earnings before taxes was 3 279m so 100k is well nothing.

Genuinely confused now, are you say “your nothing” is different from “my nothing”?

Damn, sounds like a wild guess though, how about revenue? /s

Right… which… is why I wrote revenue and not operational profit? Was I unclear? What should I have shared instead? Please feel free to clarify directly with whatever you believe would be better and why, we can all learn.

lol, $100k+… HP revenue in 2024 was $53,559,000k.

Dell same year $88,000,000k and Lenovo $69,000,000k, so ~$50B to $90B

I let you calculate the percentage but… I’d guesstimate it’s approximately nothing.

Upvoted your comment using f to get link hints, then xy (example of label) so 3 keystrokes, no mouse.

Yes. I also use vim here (in this Web textarea where I’m typing this answer) thanks to Tridactyl.

wanting bare metal feel IMO

Not sure what that means. Typically I would also question people who think containers are “expensive” in the sense of wasting resources. IMHO it’s a great compromise to have very weird services while the server itself is very stable.

if you need new things before it’s ready for a new version it’ll be pain

Like what?

Also if you need something before Debian is ready for it… you’re weird. I don’t mean this in a derogatory fashion, solely that you are doing something our of the ordinary. Consequently you should first question WHY you do that in the first place.

Finally if you do need something very specific, containers are there to … contain that. Running Debian as the host distribution doesn’t mean you’re limited to it for your applications, servers included.
