Linux@lemmy.ml•Bazzite just delivered over a petabyte of ISOs in a single month
11·13 days agoI had such a good experience switching to bazzite (from arch btw) that I put Aurora on my wife’s Ryzen 2500u laptop when windows 10 was taken out to a nice farm.
That went well until she said her friend’s kids couldn’t play games anymore. I quickly and flawlessly rebased it to bazzite and set up games.
A few hiccups with lacking Microsoft Office and having to learn the alternatives was the only issue she has had but that only took a few days for her to get down.

One you got rid of that pesky oil viscosity, it got more efficient. Same thing is going on in modern cars.

I bought a 98 Contour for $275 about 15 years ago (tweaker really needed pills) and immediately drove it 900 miles one way. Once I was at my destination I heard coolant boiling in the head. Drove it another year until the tensioner broke on my way home from work. Kept driving cuz I had funds for my next vehicle already saved. Engine no longer had compression by the time I was about a mile from home. RIP little shitbox. Best $275 ever. Scrap yard gave me $200.
GUI elements in the taskbar on a shared work computer or any of the new UI style like to just disappear on hover. Or at random. Or only appear on hover.
Its a pretty recent Lenovo system with a Quadro, a 4k scaled and 1080p monitor. It doesn’t do it when IT remotes in, ever.
That Dollar Tree Tussin DM was good stuff in my young and dumb days. Robotrip for $2.

Technology@lemmy.world•Tesla Robotaxi Stops Mid-Intersection After Running a Red Light… The Influencer Onboard Calls It “Impressive”English
5·5 months agoYeah they apparently ran some scans on the transmission and everything checked out.
The 2nd time I drove straight back to the dealership since I was nearby and they scanned again without shutting the car off and still showed no issue. All I know is it’d act like it was in neutral for about 2 minutes. Then it’d barely creep forward even at 4000 rpm. Going to park and back to drive didn’t help. Restarting the car didn’t help. After about 10 minutes of slowly getting better, it’d be back to normal.

Technology@lemmy.world•Tesla Robotaxi Stops Mid-Intersection After Running a Red Light… The Influencer Onboard Calls It “Impressive”English

I had a Nissan with a CVT before it was widely known they were garbage. I hit the brakes to avoid someone that ran a red, and the CVT went in to some protection mode and left me and my family stuck in the middle of the intersection for 2 entire light cycles before it’d move again.
Dealership just kept saying it’s fine and it was protecting the CVT from damage after going from throttle to brake quickly. I don’t give a fuck about the CVT, I care about the squishy bits inside the cabin.
After it did that again and the power windows stopped working the same day, I traded it in for a Mazda with a proper transmission. 248k miles later it’s still great.

I can count on 1 hand the number of GPU driver resets I’ve had this year, and they all started when I got my new 9070XT, and stopped when I nuked my multiple years old Arch install.
