Is it me or Ubuntu secretly replaces DEB Firefox with Snap Firefox? in c/[email protected]
[–] Amaterasu 7 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

Not defending Ubuntu but wasn't this clarified to be Mozilla's deploying it via Snap and requesting to remove the apt installation?

If you have spare time to engage in public opinion the discussion seems all over the places here.

Intel Core Ultra 7 255H lands 32% faster than the 155H in PassMark's single-core benchmark in c/[email protected]

No words about battery consumption comparison between the 255H, 155H, 285H and 185H.

I made a custom, low profile HHKB-like keyboard! in c/[email protected]

I wonder if would be possible to custom build a mechanical keyboard like this and fit it in a Thinkpad or NovaCustom laptops.

What are the reasons to use Signal over Telegram in c/[email protected]
[–] Amaterasu 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Let me start saying that for convenience I adopted Signal. Now, this argument that it validates your contacts is actually something that isn't the best feature of Signal since it implies that it is requesting and having access to phone numbers.

I don't let my number available as my contact, I created the ID and I'm using it in case someone wants to connect with me but that probably isn't something that everyone is practicing and the fact that they retain my number it doesn't digest well.

I'm not sure how is SimpleX nowadays but features like stickers and even some emoticons or message reactions were not possible. Family members and friends would be very difficult to persuade to go back to a very simplistic communication app.

I always keep an eye in alternatives and if usability reaches a good point we may need to consider SimpleX as the messenger for the mainstream recommendation.

Four-Stack OLED Panel Monitors 2025? (self.monitors)
 

Hi - I saw this new technology announced at CES 2025 about new four-stack OLED panels made by LG for TVs:

https://www.techradar.com/televisions/lg-displays-new-4-000-nit-four-stack-oled-panel-means-brighter-and-better-oled-tvs

Does anyone know if those panels are planned to come to 2025 monitors as well?

Got it, the performance in the the TB4 for eGPU isn't very good, with a degradation of 30% or more in some cases

Via TB4? If I'm not mistaken Oculink eGPU adapter is only possible with the Framework 16. It may worth waiting to perhaps get the new Arrow Lake with a discrete TB5

Thanks

Read about this bike on Reddit. Yeah, sorry, I'm still transitioning.

Watched a couple of videos. Not gonna lie, it called my attention. If was some know brand I'd probably already contacted my local dealer.

Does anyone has some inputs about it?

Another mouse question but somewhat different from last week (self.techsupport)
submitted 11 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) by Amaterasu to c/techsupport
11 comments fedilink
 

Hey, I saw the post last week about a quest for a MMORPG mouse and it inspired me to ask for help as well. My needs are similar but not exactly the same from the OP last week:

  1. Gaming MMORPGs and FPS (like everyone I guess)
  2. I want specific 3 or 4 buttons additional to the front buttons, placed on the sides
  3. Under 100g
  4. Length up to 127mm (small hands)
  5. No thumb rest is probably best.

It doesn't seem that we have many new mouse models with those requirements which is a bummer. I identified some ambidextrous mouses distributing the buttons which I think I could perhaps make it work but not sure. Here are the ones that I found. PLEASE COMMENT IF I SHOULD REMOVE ONE OF THOSE FROM MY LIST OF CONTENDERS AND WHAT WOULD YOU PICK:

a. ~~Razer Viper Ultimate~~ -- disqualified because is Razer

b. ~~Logitech G PRO~~ -- 60 hours battery may not be enough for today standard

c. Pulsar X2A

d. ~~Razer Viper 8khz~~ -- disqualified because is Razer

e. ~~Alienware Tri-Mode~~ -- side buttons can't be disabled if desired

f. ~~MMOPRO~~ -- mouse sensor not optimal

g. ~~Machenike L8 Pro~~ -- not sure if it has a third button on the sides

h. Edifier Hecate G4M Pro

i. Kone XP Air -- looks to be what I'm looking -- at 126mm it may be too large for short hands (in another context this sentence would be quite odd)

j. ~~Pwnage~~ -- having to adopt a criteria this one uses 3370 sensor and the newest mouses are using the 3395 sensor. So, keeping the mouses with 3389 and 3395 sensor in this list. It also features only 38mm of height and it may not be ergonomic to use the buttons on the right side

k. ~~Ducky Feather~~ -- this has option to choose between Kailh 8.0, Huano Blue and 60M Switches, however they doesn't seem swapable and given that it is not wireless it may be better to cut off

l. Lenovo Legion M7 -- at 127mm it may be too large for small hands (in another context this sentence would be quite odd)

m. Keychron M6

n. Glorious Model l 2 -- probably the winner. Although, I will need to find a way to either accept the thumb rest or get rid of it

Final considerations, I don't care if is wired or not. I see myself almost all the time with the mouse wired. Although would be nice to be USB C featured for a paracord cable.

I need most help to understand those techinical differences that I'm not very familiar.

Thank you for the inputs

EDIT: I gave up. The mouse that I'm looking was not created yet. I decided to go with a light regular 2 side buttons mouse.

Heliboard autocorrect works? (self.opensource)
submitted 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) by Amaterasu to c/[email protected]

Hey, I have a Heliboard question and not sure if this is the right place to ask, sorry.

I have three system languages in my phone. The three of them shows in Heliboard. I added three dictionaries, one for each. If I start typing using a secondary keyboard all words shows underlined in red. I see some words in the recommended area that seems to be correct but no matter the word selected it always shows underlined in red. This only happens for the second and third keyboard.

Is this how it suppose to works? Any inputs?

Post is displaying URL image in Thunder but not Voyager

Hi,

I'm comparing Lemmy Android app clients and I'm between Thunder and Voyager.

I noticed something weird with Voyager. There was this post it displays an image in the timeline using Thunder but it doesn't in Voyager.

Is it some configuration that I need to tweak in Voyager?

Also, is there some config to display short text about the post if has image? Like some description below if available

Thanks
