I’m the linux techie bird nerd horror aficionado lady your mother warned you about. Pinging cyberspace since the days of legend when modems shook hands and audibly greeted one another.

I love the convenience of cloud gaming and not having to keep up on the insanely overpriced GPU market. It’s such a fantastic service. I get zero latency, and it feels like completely native hardware.
There is an electron port of GFN that’s just a chromium web wrapper. Doesn’t bypass any of the browser limitations.
Higher resolution and refresh rates use more battery. You can search around if you want specifics.
I prefer 1080p 60hz laptop displays. Much lighter on the battery. I plug it into an external 120hz HDR 4k display when I need the crispiness or extra workflow.
The Ethernet issue is corrected by my docking station.
Unfortunately I had to for GeForceNow which is where I do all my gaming. Browser only supports 1080p/60. I need my 1440p or 4k 120hz. I can’t do 60hz anymore.
The minute Nvidia ever does a Linux port that Windows install is GONE.
The plight of active cooling in a ultra portable.
The last one I had did have a fan. I think it was the M1 model?

I don’t have a decibel reading for you but it sounds about the same as my MacBook Air did during load.

Glad I use Proton Pass!
I’ve been using Mbin over Kbin recently and it seems snappier and more stable. Not sure if it’s because kbin.melroy.org has substantially less users than kbin.social or the code itself. Mbin seems to federate better with Mastodon as well as more of my follows followed me back here vs kbin where none of them did.
tldr; “we’re fucked.”
I’m going to state the obvious and say it’s simply too expensive for mass adoption. This is an enthusiast product for AR early adopters similar to the launch of the original Oculus Rift (for VR). I’ll definitely be interested in a less bulky consumer facing product as the tech matures. I find AR fascinating, but I’ll wait until the hardware is more streamlined.
You ain’t leadin’ but two things- Jack and shit and Jack just left town.
Actually that’s a fair point. I totally forgot about Chromebooks.
Not using Chrome is so easy. I mean, Firefox is right there and is a better browser to boot. I genuinely have no idea why people still use Chrome for everything.
Decided to give this fork a looksee! Seems pretty quick so far.
How do you feel about Gentoo?
