They also removed hardware encoding. They've had the same shitty h264 1080p encoder forever, but it was better than nothing.

Dude, steam ships with a bunch of libraries enabling cross distro support. It ain't that complicated https://gitlab.steamos.cloud/steamrt/steam-runtime-tools/-/blob/main/docs/container-runtime.md

There is a version of the PG Riptide board with a vertical M.2 E-key slot for wifi (under the IO shield). Unfortunately the availability of the wifi version is quite poor.

Would it be feasible to add the m.2 slot to the non-wifi version. Looks like the non-wifi version lacks the metal holder and probably also the board socket. I was thinking it might be possible to solder a compatible E-key header on the board and buy a suitable holder/bracket.

Haven't found a good picture of the location of the wifi card though, as it's behind the IO shield. Probably an idiotic idea though.

Edit: went for the MSI B650m-A WiFi instead. First PCIe slot is a bit lower than the others, giving more space between gpu and cpu/psu. Additionally it comes with USB 3.2 gen2 front I/O, whereas the Asrock has gen 1 only

I've personally used webp for when I need lossy compression with alpha channel. What good alternatives are there? Png is not lossy and jpeg does not support alpha. Is JXL better than WebP? AVIF? JPEG2000?

Har fulgt med på noen produkter en liten stund for å få en god deal. Absolutt en merkbar prisøkning på alle produktene siste tiden

They have more direct control over their software ecosystem though

So after some research I splurged for a Demeyere Proline 7-ply frying pan. Unfortunately, upon trying it with my induction stove it gave an error message saying that the pan was incompatible. My internet research tells me that it could be due to the copper core of the Demeyre causing a high current draw. Another reason could be that the pan is too large (28cm), but I doubt that.

I guess I will have to try another pan to see if it works. I don't know what to look for though in terms of more compatibility though.

I was looking forward to a buy-it-for-life stainless steel pan. I can also replace the IKEA Folklig induction top with something better, but obviously not my first choice.

Any general tips would be appreciated :-)

If their licencing agreement permits retroactive changes like this, that is reason enough to gtfo

I was curious and looked up the origins of 'ham'. Apparently it originates from "ham-fisted" describing second-rate morse-code skills of telegraphists before radio was a thing

Ah, the classic "make a minority responsible for our problems" technique.

Splitting up completely functional families. Barbarians. Could this be appealed in the EU courts? Is political asylum in another country possible?

I believe I read somewhere that they have abandoned the desktop app on Linux. Yep:

!In September 2022, Microsoft announced that they'd be retiring their Linux Teams client in December 2022 in favour of a new “Progressive Web Application” (PWA) version of Teams.!<
