You can hang shelves anywhere you want man. They're just holding speakers, they don't have to be on studs. Just buy 4 shelf brackets and some fasteners at the hardware store and mount 2 planks at a height so the speakers sit about head level.

Can a Laptop kill a charger?

I got the Ugreen 45W charger for my laptop. After about a week, and some time put in my bag, the thing dies.
Amazon replaces after some faff.
2 days, replacement is dead with exact same fault. It just starts going this intermittent charging thing where it's on and then off. It's not the cable or the devices.

Any ideas what it actually is then? Driving me mad

>Or don't install Play Services? And even if you do they have access to significantly less information than they would on Android.
Why don't they include microG or the f-droid privilege extension? It's because they **want** you to use Google Play Services. I seem to remember one of their team members saying on their forums that the point was not to be "anti-google", and that was posted all over /g/.
>Organic Maps is in Accrescent.
CoMaps from F-droid for me.
>>
>>107817326
What exactly would MicroG solve that sandboxed Play Services don't? MicroG still uses Google's libraries and communicates with Google's servers. As for the F-Droid privilege extension, it would go against the core design of GOS in general. Plus the devs don't trust F-Droid in the first place.
>>
>>107817526
>What exactly would MicroG solve that sandboxed Play Services don't?
Makes some apps using openstreetmap inplace of google maps for one.
>MicroG still uses Google's libraries and communicates with Google's servers.
Many GNU/Linux distributions still ship some proprietary software be it drivers or binary blobs, but it is still far better than rawdogging Windows. The same is true on AOSP: better some freedom than none.
>As for the F-Droid privilege extension, it would go against the core design of GOS in general. Plus the devs don't trust F-Droid in the first place.
Well that's just fucking stupid, and sort of proves my point about GOS in general. All of the GOS hype is meant to distract and misdirect people from alternatives that would almost have a chance at making some impact.
>>
>Graphene OS doesn't come with Google Play Services
>Graphene OS doesn't trust f-droid
Okay so they really do intend for you to use Google Play Services anyway, glad we finally agree.

>>107817564
>Many GNU/Linux distributions still ship some proprietary software be it drivers or binary blobs, but it is still far better than rawdogging Windows. The same is true on AOSP: better some freedom than none.
This is just an argument for not installing Play Services. As I mentioned earlier in the thread, I don't have them installed and I've used it for years just fine.
It's not like MicroG is incompatible if you really want it.
>Well that's just fucking stupid,
Well it makes modifications at compile time and constitutes a single point of failure. Given that their number one goal is to minimize attack surface, it's just consistency on their part.
>and sort of proves my point about GOS in general. All of the GOS hype is meant to distract and misdirect people from alternatives that would almost have a chance at making some impact.
There weren't any alternatives before Micay showed up, and there still aren't alternatives with comparable feature sets now.
>>107817610
They intend for you to use Accrescent, and possibly Obtainium.

I'm obviously asking the wrong question, so I'll try again but from a different angle.
When I try to launch a wine game without bottles I will get audio crackling and other irregularities that occur when playing older games. However, when I set up and launch the game in a Bottle, all of a sudden the audio works, sometimes the graphics are sharper or at least clearer and my wineprefix that isn't a bottle.
It's probably because of the different of missing .dlls or something, but I've pretty much got the same .dlls as the bottle, thoughts?

This is a pretty bad headline. According to the study, it slowed them down across the board. The study seems to be a few months old but OP's article is only a few days old.

>16 developers with moderate AI experience complete 246 tasks in mature projects on which they have an average of 5 years of prior experience. Each task is randomly assigned to allow or disallow usage of early 2025 AI tools. When AI tools are allowed, developers primarily use Cursor Pro, a popular code editor, and Claude 3.5/3.7 Sonnet. Before starting tasks, developers forecast that allowing AI will reduce completion time by 24%. After completing the study, developers estimate that allowing AI reduced completion time by 20%. Surprisingly, we find that allowing AI actually increases completion time by 19%--AI tooling slowed developers down.

The study literally boils down to AI tools not trained on your 1.1M+ LOC codebase aren't helping developers that have spent 5 years+ (10 really) on that codebase and it decreases productivity more due time taken for prompting and waiting on the AI generation than checking the output.

sometimes adequately explaining the solution is the hardest part needed to fully think through the solution. i fins ai useful because its basically a rubber suck that can talk back and help me figure out what i actually need

The only desktop i care about on the only distro I care to use.

Mint 22.3 was supposed to come our right before Christmas, but not only is it delayed, but who knows if Cosmic will even be added until after the package base switches to 26.04.
I'm so fucking sick of each 'organization' clinging to their dysfunctional garbage, and I haven't recompiled Cosmic myself for at least three alpha updates because I just want it native already.
No I won't use Pop because it has conflicts with applications that are supposed to just work on Ubuntu, unlike Mint.

you mean like benchmarks?
I don't need that because I wrote real games and can test real performance by switching allocators in real projects.

You haven't written any games bro you spend all day seething in /dpt/ about malloc
