  • Explained: Why you can't move Windows 11 taskbar like Windows 10, according to Microsoft

    Jump

  • I guess the AI writing windows 11 code keeps getting the taskbar wrong.

  • Yeah, cant do any transcoding though, but i dont need 4k for everything. Though as long as my client can play the format of the video then theres no issue. It would be easier with a mini PC but im enjoying learning linux and really liking the rasberry pi in general.

    In terms of SSD. I could use a HDD. But it comes with 2 disadvantages. 1 is that media i copy from other devices to the drive takes A LOT longer to transfer. And 2, i have a big clunky HDD on my desk next to my 5 inch Pi.... just makes more sense to use an SSD.

    But essentially i guess its just not great to assume that there is no use case for them for home users just because you dont have a use case for them personally.

  • Jellyfin media server. I have another one acting as my router (with a small managed switch and openWRT) and one more pi5 i am using as a retro console. That one uses 2 nvme m.2 drives but the pi4 doesnt support nvme, only sata.

  • Samsung reveals first tri-fold phone

    Jump

  • Yes. There's a crease in the middle of the screen.

    But its invisible to the user when looking at the screen.

    It doesnt impact using the screen.

    Its barely there on the latest fold 7. Definitely more prominent as you go back through the versions. Regardless i have owned 3 generations of the phone and used my wife's one so 4 generations total and the crease doesn't matter. Hasnt mattered on any of them.

    What do you think the problem is with there being a crease? What practical issue does it raise? Or is it purely an aesthetic issue? Becaus3 if it is, like i said, you cant see it when you are the one using it.

  • I had my fold 3 for 4 years and my wife used it to get a feel for them after me and she very quickly got a 5. I had some of the paint chip off in places after a few years and one time that i got scared by something and jumped a bit and threw it out of my hand to the ground with the inner screen open (only cosmetic damage to the body) it survived a lot. A hell of a lot of engineering went into the hinge so its pretty much the strongest part of the phone. Jerryrigeverything on youtube has tried to snap these phones and they are very strong and so far have not broken in one of his tests.

    Any phone can break, but i say if you care for your phone it should last. The 3 onwards have been really solid phones and the fears around them, to me, seem made up.

  • Samsung reveals first tri-fold phone

  • After reading through the comments and seeing the majority of people are commenting negatively but have never had a folding phone. i feel like i should chime in.

    I have owns a fold 3 a fold 6 and now a fold 7, my wife has a fold 5 and we have never had one fail on us. No broken screens, no scratches or bugs. There are also several people where i work who have had at least 2 generations of these phones and also have never had issues.

    I know these things break, but so does any phone. Phones breaking tend to be a user problem and not a hardware one. If you dont handle with care then you are the problem.

    In fact i have only ever broken 1 phone in my 20+ years of using them and it was entirely my fault. I put it on a book on a table, then without thinking i lifted the book and it slid off and landed in a bucket of water. Pixel 1 not waterproof. My bad.

    I guess i just think people are quick to judge these phones without ever having used one and i think thats so short sighted.

  • I am following through. Prepped a mint boot drive and have a 1tb ssd on its way. Gonna dual boot for a bit but gonna try to move to mint as a daily driver. Because fuck windows

  • Ive been getting a taste of linux setting up a few raspberry Pis. Its been really fun and it got me looking at installing a linux distro on my PC. Probably ubuntu or ive heard good things about mint.

  • When you say it "makes no sense" or it "makes more sense"... based on what? Because there was a lot of science in the comment above to base things on. But your comment seems more like its based on feels.

  • Yes, but neither is what you are answering. Or i just don't get how that answers it.

    You are telling me this answers the question "does the universe exist" but i am asking why there is anything there in the first place so that the universe can exist. Why is there a medium for the fabric of space and time to exist within. There could have just been nothing.

    I understand that there is. And we are here. But thats not my question and i don't think your answering that question.

  • Maybe I'm just not smart enough to understand.

    What you are saying certainly answers that the universe does exist (or at least we perceive it to) but how does that answer the why? If i can ask the question then the universe does exist. Great. But why?

  • That was a great read and an interesting take. (You should write, if you don't already, it was very engaging)

    To be fair i guess i don't take life too seriously because i know that ultimately none of it matters, but equally this short time i get to spend here is my opportunity to experience as much as possible and i don't want to miss any of it so i have to take my life seriously and the lives of those my actions impact. Feeling anger and happiness, fear and love, pain and pleasure are all things to be taken seriously because they are all part of the ride.

    If i relax too much i will miss out. It may not matter ultimately but right now in this moment it does. So i should make the most of it. But remember to be able to let go of my grudges, and enjoy the ride. And try to pass that on to others. Remind those that are so wound and tangled up that they can just let go and things will get better.

    For me the meaning of life is just to live it and feel as much as possible.
