    Same boat, waiting for 1.0, now worried I'll miss the boat entirely, but I'm not going to buy their early access for that fear mongering. They made millions, they can ensure their game lives on one way or another.

    Bit confused, Google has its own browser, its own search engine, and provides a somewhat easy method to access the majority of the Internet and does it well but some people are upset because they cannot compete? What is the point in doing something so good that you become the best in the business? Everyone comes to you for your service, but you get punished because you're a monopoly? I'm thinking about Valve here as well. It's a major retail platform for PC games because nobody does it better. Publishers get upset its top dog, and their shity half arsed clients get no light.

    Is it not the point of a business to make money and be good at their service that they increase revenue yearly and drive innovation?

    Yes, some apps rely on edge to render an auth page, something I discovered this week with a debloated clean install with no edge, I could not connect bambu slicer to my 3d printer as the login page is rendered using edge, for the way I use my printer this is a must for me so had to install edge. It was worth noting that it was no obvious at first what was wrong as the app simply had no loging buttons visible and took a bit of digging to figure out the issue.

    I would love to swap to Linux if I could play all my games without having to dual boot etc. Steam have done wonders with the proton compatability on steamdeck so there is hope but a lot of my hardware also requires software that is windows only too.

    It might be a stupid comment I'm no Linux expert, but looking forward to the steamOS coming out for PC.

    I moved from an anycubic mega s which was fully upgraded and worked without an issue for the most part but was a faff to use, to a bambu p1s with ams and oh my god, I actually enjoy priting again. It's not 1 print a day now, it's 5-10 all perfect quality and finish. It's honestly made priting fun again and not a chore. Well worth the jump

    Use nova for years, but never found an of the features beneficial. I've been using One UI since moving to the s24u and I have noticed no real difference in functionality.

    As 12 comes out I think we will see a lot of gamers moving to Linux thanks to the much anticipated SteamOS release. Windows 12 will still be "successful" among the general public but Linux usage will skyrocket as Microsoft break that straw on the camels back for the more experienced users.

    Personally I will move to Linux, likely start with dual boot in the transitional phase and as SteamOS improves and game publishers realise they need to support Linux and take it more seriously.

    Not a Linux fan at all but with my steamdeck usage and setting up Mint on a NUC for a server I've been very impressed with Linux progression. It's still not perfect, needs to be more user friendly but it is getting there.

    this looks good, I have saved another peg board 3d print set and plan to do this eventually. I have the board and a printer, its just the time to mess around and try to mount it as its technically custom depending on your PC setup. Just not sure I can manage with the downtime whilst I fiddle with Starfield out and party animals later this month :D

    I would love to switch, I've used Linux a few times but primary use of my machine is for gaming, Valve have done wonders with Proton and the Steamdeck but imo it's probably not quite there yet?

    I used to install custom roms all the time back before knox on Samsung, now I cannot be bothered, usually something in the roms does not work among other bugs, it takes too long to keep up to date on rooting stuff etc, the support for roms is abysmal. I started to lose interest around the time banking apps started detecting root and not working, there were ways around it with magisk but it was complicated and could not find decent documentation on it.

    It just became simpler to use what's out of the box and the newer phones I started buying had very little in the way of custom roms to start with.

    Amazing news! So pleased to see the popup from the play store.

    Already it is smooth to scroll, images open and close instantly, unlike the app I was using connect, they would lag by a second to open and close to the point i was not sure the phone registered my tap and i would do it again and reopen the images grrrr.

    I don't usually see clear skies like this living in the city and seeing as I'm on the coast in the UK I though I would see what the 1 IV could see. Tweaked a little from raw to bring out the less clear stars but both tweaked and original blew me away.

    Isn't the option above "other", "I don't want to use it" or something along those lines? just tick that? Never found these to be that annoying. Just pick at random and be done with it.

    I got an i7-6700 skull canyon? for free through work many years ago, absolutely love it, it now serves as a Linux box and hosts server stuff on it. Only issue is a ram port died and seemed a common problem!?

    Still enjoying using it and it's form factor is fantastic, not sure if I would replace my own desktop with it but would have been an easy consideration for the kids first PC although it may benefit them actually building a tower and learning.

    Shame to hear they are stopping

    How is the experience with online multiplayer?

    I've enjoyed using my steamdeck and that OS. Would happily install a desktop variant of SteamOS when available but I mainly play single player games on the deck, I worry I won't be able to enjoy a number of multiplayer games.

    Reddit felt so damn simple to use where this is an absolute cluster fuck of complexity in comparison. It really needs to be simpler if there are hopes to take down reddit. Hopefully with boost and sync devs making a client things may improve.
