What? Schuko is an AC power plug. So no, it doesn’t adapt that to usb. It converts ac to dc and the plug is directly usb.
Even if you think they’re “safe to use”, I doubt they have the same longevity, capabilities and protections that a proper GaN charger has.
Both also have USB outlets so no need for adapers.
Technically, usb chargers are converters, not adapters. Also, I’d never trust the usb ports on a power strip. But hey, you do you.
Now when you want to take your phone out of your pocket to take a picture of something or scan it for an NFT sale you can’t do that easily
Sure you can. Just unplug the headphones.
And start blasting whatever you’re listening to to the whole world?
You’re either trolling or you’ve never used wired headphones. Playback stops automatically when you unplug a wired headphone. It’s the same thing when you disconnect a bluetooth headphone.
You’re cooking in a kitchen. There are loud fans, loud kettles. Why would you use a speaker that you have to turn way up to blast over all that noise?
Wtf? Lol. If you’re kitchen is that loud, something’s wrong with it.
or doing NFT transactions. You really haven’t thought this through, have you?
Yeah, you’re either trolling or a very special kind of person.
First of all, you’re forgetting that the actual problem is that the headphone jack does not require you remove bluetooth from the device. The issue here is giving user less options and more costly “solutions”.
The cable often gets tangled, and it’s a pain in the ass to untangle it
Git gud. It’s not that hard to roll up the cable so that it doesn’t tangle. Worst case scenario, you can buy a small case.
The cable can often get snagged on things, and if that happens the best thing that can happen is that the headphones can go flying out of your ears. The worst thing that can happen is that the phone goes flying out of your pocket and smashes on the ground.
Run the cable through your shirt. Problem solved.
The cables can get dirty and frayed, and if they get too frayed they can break or get worn down so they have an iffy connection.
Use headphones with a replaceable wire. That way you can use a cable with or without a mic or use different lentghs. Hell, you can even make your own and they’re cheap. Even if the wire isn’t easily replaceable, most headphones can be fixed with a bit of patience and a soldering iron.
Even when the cable isn’t tangled, just arranging the wire so it’s out of the way, long enough to get to your ears, but not so long it gets tangled can be frustrating.
You’re just doing mental gymnastics at this point.
Trying to use your phone for anything else while your headphones are attached can be a problem. Say you want to take a picture of something, or pay for something using NFC, you have to be careful of the cable. If you had the cable tucked into your shirt or zipped up in your jacket so it’s out of the way, now the cable might not be long enough anymore.
Or you can, I don’t know, unplug the headphones for 2 seconds.
Because of the wire, you’re limited in where you can put your phone, and your head has to always be within a short distance to your phone. With a wireless headset you can choose to put the phone in a knapsack if that’s more convenient, and when you put down the knapsack you can take a few steps away from it without losing your connection and interrupting whatever you’re listening to.
Redundant. Also, put your phone in your pocket and stop whinin’.
If you’re doing something like working in the kitchen while listening to music or a podcast, you can’t put your phone down on the counter and use it to look at a recipe, because as soon as you have to move to go get another ingredient, or to move from the cutting board to the sink, you have to pick the phone up again. And that can be a real issue if you have goop on your hands and you’re moving to the sink to wash them off.
My man, are you allergic to speakers? You’re cooking in a kitchen. Lose the headphones.
In cold weather / winter you might want to have your phone in a jacket or something. If you go inside and take the jacket off you either have to pause things while you transfer the phone to another pocket and rearrange the wire, or you have to do this complicated dance where you clear the wire and move the phone without accidentally yanking the wire out of the phone or out of your ears. With a wireless headset you just take the phone and move it to a new pocket whenever that’s convenient.
Skill issue. Run your wire underneath your jacket and you won’t have this “”“problem”“”.
Missed a few things.
“g-sync compatible” monitors are still advertised as “g-sync”. So, while you’re technically right, even though nvidia’s marketing differentiates versions, manufacturers only put that in the fine print. Also, if you go back to the original question (“Will freesync work with it?”), if gsync works, freesync works as well. Regardless of which variant of gsync you have.
Lastly, framework mentions “we’ve updated our 165Hz 2560x1600 panel to support NVIDIA G-SYNC®” but I’m not sure they’re referring to actually including a coprocessor. It most likely refers to just adding VRR support.
LMG is nowhere near as untouchable as they used to be. But they are still probably the single biggest influencer in the PC/“tech” space.
Do you really think so? Afaik, no one goes to the for hw reviews. They basically just make generic content that gets views. When it comes to actual technical reviews, they pretty much suck.
just look at this thread for the people who, with a straight face, are talking about how Framework will be their saviour from some nebulous threat.
I also don’t get why they’re praising Framework so much. Don’t get me wrong, the product seems good but it’s waaaay too expensive imo.
It does not. You’re talking about the original version GSYNC which required a hw module. That’s no longer the case.
It’s a long story and you can look up their videos on yt. Basically Linus is a narcissist who can do no wrong and the work culture at LMG is pretty crappy. Not just due to the pressure and quality of the videos being bad due to the high volume (that’s why they don’t post as often now) but also one of their former employees (Madison) said that she suffered abuse while working there. None of the higher ups gave a crap or did anything about it.
Linus (not lmg) invested in the company. It’s not the same thing. And he doesn’t “partially own” anything. Also, linus’ pr image kinda stinks. Specially after the GN debacle. The dude is a narcissist prick.
Afaik, the gpu is swappable, not hot-swappable and modular nvidia gpus are not a new thing. Older gaming laptops used to have the gpu as a daughter board.
Nowadays they’re the same thing. Nvidia uses a different name because they like appropriating things, I guess.
You have to start somewhere my man. Also, not trying to “convince” devs to remove anti-cheat. The point would be to have a linux compatible solution.
Again, it’s not relevant that relevant how the video ends because the comment did not specifically made a reference to the video and I didn’t either. You’re adding context that you imagine OP was referring to but nothing of the sort was explicitly said.
The problem with normal flash drives is longevity. The OS will probably wear it out pretty quickly. As an inexpensive and/or disposable solution I guess it’s fine, but it’s not reliable.
You kind of can? If you want to have an OS that you will actually use (instead of just a backup to fix your actual os) on a thumb drive, buy a usb-c m.2 enclosure, put the cheapest ssd that meets your needs in there and just install windows there.
It sucks that you have to maintain it though. If you don’t update from time to time, you’ll have to update windows, steam, the game and probably thr gpu drivers as well.
I sincerely hope that Linux becomes at least mainstream enough to not have compatibility issues. It’s still not something I would recommend to people that don’t know how (or don’t want) to troubleshoot issues. If installed linux on my mom’s laptop she’d be constantly reaching out to figure out how to do/solve stuff.
Jay you mean? I replied to a comment, not the video, and the comment only said “backup os”.
Still, I admittedly did not watch the video because I’ve stopped watching that guy years ago. He’s one of the least knowledgeable “techtubers” I know. The only thing he was good at was custom watercooling stuff, but I don’t know if he still does that stuff.
Lastly, while it does suck to not be able to play a game due to anticheat, the best way to solve that issue is to not play those games. The devs will propmtly find a way to make an anticheat that works on linux too if their playerbase demands it.
You can just have a thumbdrive with another linux distro and live boot with that. There really isn’t a need to have another os permanently installed.
How far do you even have to be to use a 65" screen? Doesn’t seem practical at all for desktop use.
That’s from a sample size what? 4 power strips? Super reliable data xd
