I've been pretty happy overall with my Arc A770. For the price, it performs well, and driver issues are mostly a thing of the past. My only complaint is that the anv Mesa driver doesn't implement VK_NV_device_generated_commands which appears to be a requirement for some D3D12 games on Linux (Starfield being the one I had issues with). Luckily, it looks like there is a new non-NVIDIA specific extension to solve that and an open MR in the Mesa GitLab to add it to anv.

I recently printed the Fractal Design North Pi case which turned out quite nicely.

If you read the article, it is indeed full Linux because the 4004 is running a MIPS emulator that provides the necessary memory management features. Pretty much all of the "run Linux on some old chip incapable of running Linux" projects achieve it via emulating a more featured architecture that Linux supports, not by somehow compiling Linux to natively run on a 4 bit, MMU-less architecture.

Change for the sake of change is so dumb. I'm tired of pointless UI changes every so many years because some middle manager and their designers need to wow some dumb exec to get a promotion and they do so just by rearranging all the existing functionality because the product itself is already a complete solution that doesn't actually need a new version. Sadly, this mentality even creeps into FOSS spaces. Canonical and Ubuntu wanting to reinvent the wheel with Unity, Mir, Snap, etc. GNOME radically changing their UI all the time.

This was my early high school days. My friend and I would play Mario 64 DS wirelessly across the hall because we were in different classes but close enough for a WiFi connection. Great times. Also, the Metroid demo included with the console was a fun multiplayer experience.

Concord

I got ab RG35XX Plus when it came out. Very nice little Game Boy style handheld. I played a bunch of GBA, GB, and Genesis games on it but it's capable of a lot more.

I just got my passport photo taken on Monday at Walgreen's and uploaded the emailed copy to the online renewal form. It was denied for being too zoomed in. Ugh! Why do they change the photo requirements for the online form?

I got a NexiGo portable gaming monitor that I'm pretty happy with. It is a 16 inch 2560x1600 display, 144Hz, and supports FreeSync. I got a bidirectional DisplayPort to USB C cable so that I could use it with my desktop for LAN parties and it's great. It has a built in flip-out kickstand, a folding magnetic cover, OK built in speakers (good enough to game with anyways), and can be powered via a second USB C port with an A to C cable. On a device that supports USB C video output like a laptop or Steam Deck it can run off a single cable but I mostly wanted it for my desktop.

When it first came out it had double steak, when it became a permanent item it was made smaller.

You can view WiFi passwords for saved networks on pretty much every OS. There's no reason to be secretive about entering WiFi passwords, at least to the people whose devices you're entering the password on.

LibreWolf on everything that supports it (Windows/Mac/Linux) and Fennec F Droid on Android.

Some of my favorites:

• Chicken flatbread melt (like a taco but with a fluffy flatbread instead of a tortilla)
• Beefy 5 layer burrito
• Cantina Chicken Quesadilla
• Breakfast Crunchwrap (preferably steak)

The Cantina Chicken Quesadilla is one of my favorite items lately. The new green sauce is pretty good too.

I've tried most of the common options (with the notable exception being the vastly overpriced Librem 5). The best option IMO is the OnePlus 6 or 6T (they're almost identical) running postmarketOS. It is much faster than the PinePhone Pro with way better battery life and has proper modern GPU support (OpenGL up to 4.x, Vulkan). The main thing preventing daily driving the OnePlus 6/6T is that the earpiece audio doesn't always work for calls and that it won't wake from sleep when an incoming call comes in. The PinePhones are better to use for voice calling, but slower, lacking many graphics APIs (no Vulkan, limited OpenGL), and have much worse battery life. The camera doesn't work at all on the OnePlus phones yet, it is starting to work on the PinePhones but the picture quality isn't all there.

At the moment I have both a OnePlus 6 and 6T, but I have stock Android on the OnePlus 6 and postmarketOS on the 6T. I use the Android one as my daily driver with my primary number SIM but got a second cheap Mint Mobile SIM for the postmarketOS one for experiments and mobile data. I prefer browsing on the postmarketOS phone, and I use it for VPN, SSH access, file management, and some coding on the go which are things Linux phone excels at over Android. I mostly use the Android phone for calls, texts, camera, maps, email (GMail), Discord, and casual browsing. If they fix the earpiece audio issue I would probably be fine daily driving the

Open source NVIDIA drivers (NVK, nouveau, nova) finally being usable for gaming.

Linux phones, postmarketOS

RISC-V CPUs becoming more and more viable

Linux on phones and tablets is a thing. Typing from my Xiaomi Pad 5 Pro running postmarketOS and LibreWolf.

How is the external display connected? I have never seen Freesync over HDMI work. The early implementations were AMD proprietary and the new ones require HDMI 2.1 which has some ridiculous bullshit about not being implemented by open source drivers. HDMI sucks, use DisplayPort if possible. If your laptop doesn't have a DisplayPort connector, try a USB-C to DisplayPort cable, as usually the type C ports on laptops support DisplayPort alt mode.
