This movie still looks stunning!!

Also 2010, just beautiful!!

Forgive me, I must have missed the last paragraph. Yes, it’s running standard Android. But since there is almost no bloatware it might be worth looking into.

I got the Lenovo Tab M10 Plus 3rd Gen three or so years ago for watching movies when away. There was almost no crap pre installed, and what remained I could uninstall.

Av1 and vp9 usually works, there is the occasional file that acts weird. Hevc, whatever the bit depth, resolution or encoding method works flawlessly.

It has a Qualcomm SDM680 processor, it’s also available with a less powerful one, but the one I mentioned has definitely enough power to play 4k 10bit TrueHD whatever.

That’s all beyond my abilities :)

My main problem was just a printer. I did find a driver for Mint, and it worked flawlessly for a few days. And suddenly it stoped printing again. I tried to configure the driver, I uninstalled and reinstalled, it just does not work anymore. Getting help is difficult online because everyone seems to think much knowledge is a given, and the hints got more and more complicated until I just had no idea what I was doing. Reading up on the commands used got more and more overwhelming and intimidating, so I, at some point, just gave up. Same with gaming, if a game runs it’s absolutely fine, but when it does not it’s tough to find easy to understand documentation how to fix it.

I won’t give up, but I reinstalled Windows 11 on my main PC again. Mint runs on my laptop that I use occasionally. Linux has come a long way, and it’s amazing how the usability improved over the years, but, at least for me, it’s not quite there yet. But until Windows 12 comes out I’m pretty sure it will improve much further, until then Win11 has to do. My first step is taken.

Thank god I’m not the only one. I was convinced it was me! i used Mint for two months, and when everything works it’s good, but the second you encounter a problem it becomes a nightmare.

Tenet. I got the story the first time, but there are so many little details in it…

Racism? Fuck that. The annoying wise kid and the constantly screaming woman killed that movie!

That’s the thing: You paid for it, you should not be forced to illegally download anything.

It’s not even the worst. If Epic goes down, you have lost everything. If Steam goes down you have lost everything. If Gog goes down you have lost nothing (because you have a backup I hope).

I had no idea it was a solo project, but now that you mention it, yes, it’s written big on the cover :) And yes, the lineup, the choir, the stage props, I just love it!

Pure Pink Floyd would be The Division Bell then.

The Wall Live in Berlin. The CD is awesome, the DVD, thanks to the cinematography simply breathtaking.

After reading Wikipedia they are still active if I understand correctly? They are not dead?

To be fair, at the current state search engines work LLMs might not be the worst idea.

I’m looking for the 7800x3d, not 3D shooters, not the 1234x3d, no not the pentium 4, not the 4700rtx. It takes more and more effort to search something, and the first pages show every piece of crap I’m not interested in.

No idea, but it might be important to add in which country the story takes place.

The internet is already, to a huge extent, untrustworthy and soulless.

When I think back to the 2000s, it was wild west. And it was fun. Not efficient but adventurous fun.

At this point today I don’t care anymore. Give me the items and information I need, anything else like Lemmy is just a small bonus.

Monkey Island 1 to 4.

I once was recommended a Japanese anime, “Gate”. It’s about a fantasy world trying to invade our modern realm. Earth strikes back with modern weapons, the fantasy world has no chance with their dragons, Orks and magic.

This I would love to see more of, asymmetrical warfare, it’s just a power fantasy, but a fun one!

In the 2020s alone we had COVID, Russian Nazis, and now Trump Nazis. Oh, and we went past 1.5 degrees.

I got a reproduction of a painting I really liked over the years and seen many times hanging in a museum. It looks like the original, extremely high quality, hand painted, and it cost 800 €. It even got a certificate of the artist who recreated it with the techniques and materials she used. There is a market for this, but you should first check the website obviously that it’s not a fake store.

But if it’s not, it’s legit and legal.
