Of course it’s almost $500… AMD just cannot fathom the idea of launching something at a somewhat reasonable price, and every single time it means the reviews and first impressions are middling due to a lack of value. Kills my excitement every time too, since I’ll just get it cheaper in several months instead of excitedly impulse buying it at a more sane starting price. Probably better for me I realize, but I want to be excited about it! Their launch prices are such a buzzkill.

I just checked and it works as a shutter button for me. Seems like it works as a shutter button only if you have it set to open the camera - if you don’t, whatever action it’s set to seems to take priority

Windows/OneDrive stealing my files was the tipping point to push me to Linux. I’d disabled OneDrive as much as I could like a year ago with a new install, and I simply opened it to check that it was all still disabled after seeing the headlines somewhat recently. Turns out that’s all the permission Windows thought it needed to start siphoning files off to somewhere else, since it got to work moving and uploading my documents immediately without warning. So thoroughly completely unacceptable, how could I possibly trust it with anything after that? I open a program once and my documents are immediately being sent to a server somewhere. That’s how a freaking virus acts! This was weeks ago and I’m still annoyed.

It’s probably from within the last 30 years or so

Both getting fixed with Fedora 41 luckily, DNF5 by default and a new installer they’ve been working on

Wonder how good Google is feeling about that 60 million dollar deal to scrape all of Reddits wisdom

Hah I didn’t even need a dating app for that

Am I the only one that’s not had trouble with it? What’s the big issue?

Debian does use systemd, as do most other big distros. If you weren’t already complaining about it, it’s probably not something you’ll care about at all. The biggest issue is more of a philosophical one rather than practical I think, where some people don’t like that systemd attempts to handle many parts of the init process at once. The “Linux way” is generally to have a program that does one thing and does it very well, not one that does many things. Systemd seems to go a bit against this principle to my understanding, which carries the longer term risk of damaging the modularity Linux generally offers, but evidently most big distros have deemed it worthwhile to switch.

Could be slightly wrong since I’ve not paid much attention to it the past couple years, but that’s the gist of it to my knowledge

I used to use it before the HDMI spec caught up, but they both now offered the same features for me (or so I thought) and the HDMI 2.1 cables I’ve got were thinner/easier to manage and hide so I swapped it out. I’m definitely gonna experiment later today and see if that’s indeed the issue, gonna be frustrating if it’s just patent/copyright garbage once again worsening user experience

Update: For anyone wondering, this was indeed the issue and I’m able to run 4k144 perfectly over DP. I really didn’t even consider that being the problem until now given the spec parity, very dumb move from the HDMI forum

Wait, is that why I can’t do 4k144 on my desktop?! I never tried switching between HDMI/DP for that because they’re both capable of the bandwidth needed as far as the spec goes - I thought the issue was Gnome or something

Fedora 41 specifically is when it’s planned to be introduced, which would release towards the end of the year. It was initially planned for 39 but got delayed sadly, though I think there’s a way to swap to it for testing? But yeah, hopefully DNF can shirk the obvious “did not finish” joke because it really is slow
