This is the only real issue from those you listed, but you left out the most important one: shit firmware and drivers.

Most Zen 4 AMD laptops have fucking terrible drivers, especially related to power consumption, they idle at high wattages and run hotter and louder than they should. It's a shame they ruin their efficiency advantage over Intel with this shoddy work. And even desktop have problems with long boot times. I won't even mention the state of GPU software support because it's beyond pathetic compared to NVIDIA, it's like they aren't even trying.

And they cost an arm and a leg, which misses the point of integrated graphics. AMD is refusing to compete with their own line of shitty display drivers so they set the prices of their newer APUs really high. Intel ARC iGPU is almost reaching parity with 780M anyway. Sure AMD's better, but they shouldn't act like they're the only big guy in town anymore.

if it wasn't for Ryzen Intel would still be selling you four-core chips as the top consumer model, with six- and eight-core models available on the HEDT platform starting at $1200.

Report them to webcompat.com, a site ran by Mozilla to keep Firefox functioning on as many sites as possible.

Firefox devs are aware of discrimination by Chrome-brained developers and you should defend your right to use Firefox. I've had to argue with Tesco to keep using Firefox on their site. But even though I use Firefox on as many sites as possible I had to concede defeat for adobeconnect.com as Firefox itself doesn't support all the features on it.

We're living in a world where a "hello world" website requires downloading and evaluating 3MB of JavaScript in 16 files served from 11 different domains (8 of which are botnet), so that it can make 7 XHR requests to further 5 different domains (4 of which are botnet), so that it can assemble and render '<p>hello world</p>' piece of HTML.

100% of problems I encounter with some sites on Firefox are caused by either:
>FF resisting botnet and blocking some of those requests
>FF actually adhering to CORS policies and blocking some of those requests
>FF resisting fingerprinting and angering the botnet which then refuses to serve some of those requests

Friendly reminder that if you say "fuck it, I'll just use Chrome", you're only exacerbating the problem.

Is 3D printing nowadays as accessible as normal printing?

I need this part printed https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4986910

Thanks so much for your recommendations of specifoc models

Bambu Lab A1 is 600 euros. Having 1 fucking part printed is 100 euros. It depends if I will still use it again for other parts in the future for it to make sense but yeah thats definitely a reasonable route if it is actually decent

It seems like it's getting significantly easier to 3D print- but only on the more expensive machines. Lower prices ones work pretty much the same as they did 4 years ago.
>>
>>100071717
It's quite a lot easier than it was but there'll still be a fair amount of fiddling and learning you'll need to do, and getting usable parts out of 3d printing is easy, but getting aesthetically high quality parts a lot of the time requires a lot of slicer tuning.

Certs are useful after you get some experience (some are very expensive, your company should pay for them).

Originally developed for distribution in Africa where broadcast radio existed, but ready availability of batteries was sketchy. Now they're marketed as emergency radios.
Original ones I think used a spring driven motor to generate power. Modern ones have a battery you can charge up by winding or with a solar panel and feature flashlights and USB ports to charge your phone.
>>
The abstract concept of "radio", ie sound being broadcast will keep going as not everyone wants to watch a video at the same time. Even in self driving cars people would still want to focus at looking at scenery instead of looking at a tv while being driven. The concept of the broadcast medium will change, i can see am, fm and even dab being replaced with 5G radio in the future.

Some of the signals are probably so strong you don't even need an antenna. I used to live really close to the tower for an AM station and when I would press my finger to the 3.55mm plug of my computer speakers I would hear it come out of them.

4 pixels act as 1 pixel

>>100076905
No. Your 4k monitor has a native resolution of 4k and usually setting it to another resolution it has to run an "on the fly" algorithm to display 1080p which always looks worse
Best to leave it at 4k resolution then use scaling to display it at 1080p

benchmark was open source

https://openbenchmarking.org/result/2404186-NE-FRAMEWORK98&sgm=1&sor&swl#results

With the Framework 16 laptop one of the performance pieces I've been meaning to carry out has been seeing out Linux performs against Microsoft Windows 11 for this AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS powered modular/upgradeable laptop.

The Framework 16 review unit as a reminder was configured with the 8-core / 16-thread AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS Zen 4 SoC with Radeon RX 7700S graphics, a 512GB SN810 NVMe SSD, MediaTek MT7922 WiFi, and a 2560 x 1600 display.

It was tested on Windows 11 and Ubuntu both. The same Framework 16 AMD laptop was used throughout all of the testing for looking at the out-of-the-box performance across Microsoft Windows 11, Ubuntu 23.10, and the near-final state of Ubuntu 24.04.

Out of 101 benchmarks carried out on all three operating systems with the Framework 16 laptop, Ubuntu 24.04 was the fastest in 67% of those tests, the prior Ubuntu 23.10 led in 22% (typically with slim margins to 24.04), and then Microsoft Windows 11 was the front-runner just 10% of the time... If taking the geomean of all 101 benchmark results, Ubuntu 23.10 was 16% faster than Microsoft Windows 11 while Ubuntu 24.04 enhanced the Ubuntu Linux performance by 3% to yield a 20% advantage over Windows 11 on this AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS laptop.

yeah it's one of those thin laptops with a dedicated gpus in it (i5 9300H + 2060) so the battery inside is tiny and doesn't last long in any case, and it doesn't matter since I use it plugged 95% of the time, but heh, it's still a small improvement

I didn't do anything special to my distro either, like getting Optimus to work was a bit of a pain but everything else worked OOB so I didn't touch power settings or anything kek (I did disable screensaver and useless shit like that but I do that on all of my machines). I also need to disable wifi power saving or my wifi will cut all the time lmao, known issue on most MSI laptops apparently. I could probably save a bit more battery by running the screen @60Hz rather than native 120 too
