Idk about public trackers but you can just upload them on private trackers. If you’re not on any private trackers, I am.

I did the power measurement using a power meter. We also use natural gas for heating and don’t have any AC.

I don’t think that’s your PC. I actually measured how much power my PC and my monitors consumed in a week and used that to calculate how much that would be for the year and compared to the total used energy for that year. My PC setup was only a small fraction of the yearly usage. The vast majority of your energy is gonna be consumed by things like fridges, ovens, heating, water pumps, etc.

I use a refurbished 10tb HDD for my server too and it works just fine

Rufus has that option, I’ve used it myself to update to Win11 because I didn’t have a motherboard with TPM at the time.
Also wanna mention, the reason I updated was mostly because I thought Win10 was kinda ugly and I think Win11 was a huge update in that regard and also because of security reasons, since Win10 won’t receive any more updates in the near future. At the end of the day, I can count on one hand how often I boot Windows in a year (I almost exclusively use Linux), so I don’t really care about all the Win11 bullshit anyway.

That would be huge

What you’re seeing is the best economic system ever created in action

That looks really awesome. Would be interesting to know the performance impact of this in comparison to the traditional approach and whether that impact makes it worth it to use it in any type of game or just in games where the ocean is a central part.

That was a joke, whether or not your phone screen cracks it obviously not a skill issue

Skill issue on their part

I use my phone without a case too, phones don’t break that easily. I even dropped it on stone tiles once when I missed my pocket and it only got a few scratches on the side from that.

Any advantage to using Orca Slicer over PrusaSlicer? Basically the main reason I use PrusaSlicer is just cus it’s on flathub

I have a Sovol SV06, which normally uses an SD Card but I flashed Klipper on it and connected a Rasperry Pi to it (which is connected to my network via ethernet) and now I also have a web interface and can just upload the files and start the print from there.

Since it’s using the Raspberry Pi instead of the built-in microcontroller for all the calculations, it’s also a lot more accurate.

I just use Blender. Any advantage to using FreeCAD?

There’s a weird issue with VR on Linux where it doesn’t use the right GPU profile for some reason. A pretty easy workaround for that is to use CoreCTRL to manually set the GPU profile to high.

It should just work. You install SteamVR through Steam, start it and it should detect the headset.

Here are a few ideas on what could have gone wrong:

• Steam is installed as a flatpak
  • Doesn’t work out of the box but I think it’s also in this thread where I asked how to make that work
• You use GNOME
  • Currently, VR works on KDE in X11 and Wayland but in GNOME only in X11. GNOME 47 (The next update, some people might already have it depending on the distro) adds support for VR in Wayland tho

These are the 2 things I could think of off the the top of my head. If you know what exactly didn’t work I might be able to help you.

Edit: Forgot to add, you also need to install CoreCTRL and use it to set the GPU to high, otherwise performance is gonna be shit.

Whaaaaat…? In a time of economic struggles, companies would rather support fascists than risk letting socialism take over? This certainly never happened before, especially not in Germany.

I’d be down to set that up. I thought VR just flat out doesn’t work with flatpak. Do you know where I can find out how to set it up?

Works perfectly fine, actually. I have a Valve Index. The only headsets with Linux support are the one I have, the HTC Vive and standalone headsets that work with ALVR (e.g. the Quest ones).

Only reason I haven’t done that is because of VR. Not sure if VR works through flatpak.
