Think he’s talking about Sandra Bullock?

Remember having multiple full local sessions going while sitting outside of Best Buy waiting for the Wii launch. The overnight DS sessions ended up being more fun than the Wii launch titles

Appreciate the info! I had been trying out the new Cosmic DE that ships with pop os and I’m guessing that’s still lacking HDR but did feel very performant. I’ll have to see if switching is worth the trade off once they nvidia driver update gets released

Has support for DP 2.1 or HDR in Wayland made any improvements yet? I tried Pop_OS and had lots of issues with this

I’ve been following this GitHub issue waiting for this change to make it into the next nvidia driver release but still suspect this won’t address HDR. Obviously first world problems for high end hardware but it’s one of the last pieces holding me back from trying Linux on my desktop

Considering they just dropped i486 support this year I’d say you’re running this on a super computer by comparison

Does that mean I can get a 3rd party eShop on my Nintendo Switch? 😆

I was hopeful until I read the article and they couldn’t stop mentioning AI over and over as the reason they’re reviving Digg.

Poor Christian. First Reddit now YouTube

It’s a reference to the fact that the original Zelda cartridge for NES was gold

A true apex predator

It’s been supported for years but definitely one of the least user friendly cloud setups

https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/nest/

Have to set up both a cloud project and device access project and configure pub/sub all within Google cloud services just to get it to talk to home assistant. And then obviously the entire integration is still cloud dependent. And there’s a $5 fee on top of that to get access to these services which while not much is still annoying. The API support is also limited and doesn’t support newer features like the additional temperature sensor pucks (which have been out for like 2-3 years)

There are a few zwave thermostats out there and ecobee can be set up using HomeKit for completely cloudless local control so I’ll be jumping on one of those to get rid of the nest.

I was an earlier adopter of nest and I while it was initially cool my next thermostat will be something with support for local control and better home assistant integration not tied to the cloud

Unless the amount they have to pay exceeds what it was going to cost them to honor those lifetime agreements this is just the cost of doing business not a penalty

Time flies I guess it’s almost a year old already but this is what I was referring to

Read his new book and it was a cool look into that era of game design and development. Id games played a huge part in my becoming a computer geek

I still have hope. The end of Half Life Alyx gave a nice setup for the sequel and changed the ending of episode 2 tying the two timelines together

Aside from the gameplay of the recent Doom games being top tier I really enjoyed how they tied the original story into things. Was really cool to come to learn the tie in as I progressed through the game. This looks great I’m ready to rip and tear

Just added the “uh-oh” sound as an alert tone on iOS 🫡

As a heavy SteamVR user the poor Linux support is one of the few things keeping me from dumping windows on my gaming PC. Fingers crossed for continued improvements
