  • Agreed.

    OP, I think you should ditch the coldplate display and pick up something like the Arctic Liquid Freezer III.

    I’m not big into AIOs and WC but I’ve only heard good things about its price/performance and reliability. It also has an offset mount option specifically for Matisse, Vermeer, Raphael etc.







  • I see, good to know.

    I have a friend who picked one up on sale. They’re not too happy with the overall shape as it’s a bit too big for them.

    As for its performance as a gaming mouse, he tends to carry in apex 😅

    Hope you can find one at a reasonable price, though I’m sure there’s decent alternatives on the market.


  • Do you have a preferred grip, shape or size? Any button layout or functionality requirments (side scroll, browser front back, infinite scroll wheel, thumb button etc)? I don’t use one myself but I’ve heard some nice things about the roccat kone pro air.

    I personally use a gently modded Logitech g903.


  • It’ll only attempt to place those files on sata 0 if there’s a disk connected. I’m not sure if it will move up the index in lieu of disk0, I suppose I should test that at some point.

    In any case, you can just isolate it on first install at any SATA slot you find convenient; in-place systme upgrades shouldn’t move things around afterwards.


  • I hear about this happening with disk partitions, but this shouldn’t happen on independent disks. I’ve been using fedora alongside win10 and 11 for several years now with no issues.

    One thing worth noting is that windows will attempt to place it’s bootloader on SATA 0, regardless of where its OS files are situated. I’d recommend disconnecting all other disks when installing Windows.

    The device you linked is interesting, however. I wish there was a a hardware mechanism which offered you different power buttons for the OS you’d like to start into from a cold boot, though I could see the option you linked working depending on boot order.


  • From.the FAQ

    Why build a new browser in C++ when safer and more modern languages are available? Ladybird started as a component of the SerenityOS hobby project, which only allows C++. The choice of language was not so much a technical decision, but more one of personal convenience. Andreas was most comfortable with C++ when creating SerenityOS, and now we have almost half a million lines of modern C++ to maintain.

    However, now that Ladybird has forked and become its own independent project, all constraints previously imposed by SerenityOS are no longer in effect. We are actively evaluating a number of alternatives and will be adding a mature successor language to the project in the near future. This process is already quite far along, and prototypes exist in multiple languages.






  • I appreciate that you’re trying to inform me but if you make such a claim, you should be able to prove it.

    A friend was able to provide some context, regardless:

    • The one binary I’m aware of microG downloading (assuming it still does) is the SafetyNet “DroidGuard” thing, which it only does if you explicitly enable SafetyNet, which is not on by default. There is no other way to provide it.

    • microG only has privileged access if you install it as a privileged app, which is up to you / your distribution, as microG works fine as a user app (provided signature spoofing is available to it). Also, being privileged itself really doesn’t mean giving privileges to “Google”.

    • Apps needing Google services may indeed contain all sorts of binaries, generally including Google ones, which doesn’t mean they contain Google services themselves. Anyway, they are proprietary apps and as such will certainly contain proprietary things, and it’s all to you to install them or not. It’s not like microG includes them.

    • Its also just a reimplementation of a small handful of useful Google services, such as push notifications, or the maps (not the spyware stuff like advertising) and each can be toggled on/off.

    • Also all apps on android are sandboxed
