You have the crop factor backwards. It’ll increase the effective focal length. Multiply the crop factor by the focal length of the lens

Your car is spying on you (if it’s new-ish)

Use Ublock Origin and be sure to select better filters, get her using Bitwarden the password manager, and use Quad9 DNS to block lots of bad websites and malware.

O&O Shutup is a nice Windows software to block lots of crap.

Get a fairly cheap mini PC for ~$700 with a 7840HS APU and run a Linux distro such as Bazzite, Chimera, or Nobara. You’ll be able to game at 1080P comfortably.

SMS was a huge factor for getting my wife on a degoogled os

Bring back the standard DIN design. Then we can all change out our head unit with something that has Garmin but doesn’t affect the physical buttons on the dash below it.

That’s terrible

Who’s paying who 2.4M?

That looks like a pretty nifty OS. If I can’t get the software working via Wine or something I’ll definitely try this before Windows in a VM

Thank you. I’ll be sure to that I have the libraries I need

Interesting. I use it on Linux and haven’t had the issue of uninstallable games. I wish Playnite had a Linux client

I have previously used VirtualBox successfully. I am really trying to stay away from Windows if at all possible. If I absolutely had to I might run a VM with WinXP or Vista just for it

I totally get what you’re saying. Luckily for me the program just runs formulas so I can figure out for instance what size plenum, what length runners, what size turbo, etc. I need. I’m not using it to flash a tune as my engine is too old for that fancy stuff

I’m getting Windows out of my life. I’ll look into Wine again

Like running Windows in a VM with the program? I really don’t want Windows in my life if possible

I tried Lutris first and it was okay but left something to be desired. I switched to Heroic and am in love with it. It works so well and the UI is great

You can absolutely learn on it. Start to get a hood understanding of ISO, shutter speed, and aperture. Practice composing scenes and learning how to edit

And DRM free stuff so when you purchase it and download it, you truly own it

Very reasonable, thank you

Can you elaborate on why new Linux users shouldn’t use an Atomic system? I’ve been looking to try one so I have no experience as of yet. My Dad wants to try Linux with his upcoming new computer. I was thinking Fedora Kinoite as from what I understand, they just work and have a very low chance of breaking. He doesn’t do anything beyond the basic computing tasks like web browsing, writing documents and spreadsheets, and archiving photos. Do you think it wouldn’t be good for him?
