  • I recently bought a TCL google tv and first thing I did was install smarttube and a different launcher.

    That being said the first question in the setup proces was if I wanted the “smart” functions on or just have a basic experience and only use HDMI and cable tv.

    But the ads on the home screen with Google tv are really annoying. They are front and centered. I want my apps and inputs where the ad’s are.



  • For getting a idea of how your games run check out protondb.com you can add your steam library to easily check your library.

    For epic, gog and Amazon prime gaming you got heroic (https://heroicgameslauncher.com/) it also uses proton to play windows games.

    GPU drivers are fine. AMD just works for gaming and Nvidia (depending on distro you need to install the drivers, search how to install them and dont install them from the Nvidia website) works fine if you just have a simple setup. The Nvidia drivers are improving alot by the way.

    Random mouse, keyboard and other stuff is a hot or miss. Most of the time basic stuff simply works, but maybe there are no drivers/programma to set rgb or macros. (P.s. Try open rgb for rgb stuff)

    You can always try with a dual boot. If you not used to Linux and like gaming maybe something like pop os

    There are many 775 socket boards that support ddr3 and core 2 duo/quad supported ddr2 and 3.

    There are even motherboard that support both ddr2 and ddr3 like this gigabyte g41m combo

    Edit: damn at least some core 2 duo’s support also ddr1. So core duo supports ddr1, 2 and 3

    There are almost no lga 775 boards that have ddr1 support and have core 2 duo as supported cpu. But this ASRock motherboard does support the core 2 duo and ddr1 and ddr2





  • I use a quest 1 on Linux.(According to the alvr the quest 3 is also fully supported) Played about the last half of half life on Linux.

    However some VR games just don’t run well under proton I still have windows installed for that. Even if i didn’t boot into windows for a half year now.

    Also first recommend installing Linux in dual boot with windows if you don’t know if al your programs/games work. Nowadays most stuff works but you can always keep windows for just in case.

    The Netherlands just finished and walked out of this picture. But yeah we now have new discussions in Congress if umvolkung/the great replacement theory is a fact or if it a fascist conspiracy theory. According to the cabinet it’s a fact and you can be minister and believe in it. (For example the minister that’s decideds about immigration)

    Same as all liberals they rather protect capital and work together extreme right parties. Then giving some crumbs to the left.

    Same happened in the Netherlands with the vvd and nsc. They are now in a cabinet with extreem right(wich the media isn’t called extreme right any more but radical right) and in the senaat they will be working together with the FvD (a (proto) fascist party) and the sgp a extreme christian party.

    He now hopes the left voters are so scared they vote for him and when he doesn’t get a majority his party will work together with extreme right.

    Edit: but not French, however we in the Netherlands already had this happen. Same is happening all over the western world and outside of it.



  • Even if something like proxmox or a Debian install with docker is more customizable. It’s a steep learning curve.

    But isn’t something like truenas scale a option? I run Emby(as my media Server) and the arr’s on it. All the apps are already in the “software store” including plex. And setup of the arr’s is just the same as normal. All installs are basically automatic.

    I easy passthrough my intel gpu in the config page on the webportaal, but don’t how easy it is for Nvidia or amd. Especially with Nvidia due to drivers. But maybe someone here knows?


  • I work as a theatre tech (light and sound) at a college(theatre arts department). I do however use Linux and made some scripts in Python to control my ligtdesk and sound table. So a bit of IT related work. But also talk with students about the creative part of lights, sound and projection and how they can use it during and after there study in there shows.

    I also do some shows for them in the small Theatre in the college and outside the college.

    And give them a workshop teaching them the basics and how they can tell to a tech what they want and how they can do somethings themselves.


  • Not American, but please keep in mind that the national inflation rate is not necessary someone’s personal inflation rate.

    For example when inflation was in the 10%+ here my personal rate was almost 30%. My dad for example buys his bread in his local bakery it was €3 for a 1 loaf and didn’t go up. The bread I buy was €1,02 then it went up to €1,96. That’s 80%+ inflation will my dad had zero. This still is the case(luckily not as bad anymore some prices went down again) with the cheapest stuff. For me personally it doesn’t matter if already to expensive tomatoes only went 5% up. What’s matters is the cheapest.

    For another example new cars didn’t go up much, but I couldn’t buy a new car anyway. (And how the fuck buys a new car every year?) It’s a meaning less number.

    You don’t know if someone’s rent went up %20 or there stable food supply. Personal inflation especially if you are already struggling is a removed.

    That’s being said the price hikes are do to higher prices of materieels and most important record profits for companies. You can blame (in the USA) Biden for keeping the system in places which profits on the basic needs of humans, but not necessary the current inflation numbers.

    Same with jobs the numbers go’s up you can credit Biden for that, you again can blame him (and his colleagues on both sides(and the not Biden side is much worse)) that you can barely scrap by on a single job.

    Simple said personal experience is not numbers.
