Do you mean that there are integrated virtual machines?

I’ve factory reset every Google home of mine multiple times over the years. Never had any effect.

Google Home. Bought them for $40 CAD and back then they were great. Responsive, did quick google searches, played my music all over the house.

Over the years they’ve lost functionality. Mine no longer accurately respond to voice queries and no longer complete google searches. I can still play music on them manually from my phone but when I ask it something, it responds back in French or does something completely different than what I had originally asked.

Worst part is that I ask it something, it does something different, and then when I say “hey Google stop” it just keeps going and going. Have to manually pull the plug for it to stop.

It actually is officially supported by the hardware team who builds my laptop. I’m not sure why you had to be so hostile with your wording.

Right? I’ve had these issues with a Framework 13 AMD and have experienced these problems on Kubuntu 23.10, Ubuntu 22.04, and Kubuntu 24.04.

Otherwise the computer runs stably albeit certain flatpaks and snaps just stop working for some reason over time (like BambuStudio and Webcord and a Notion web wrapper and Kdenlive).

I basically treat this laptop as I would a bigger steamdeck. I video edit, play games, and browse the internet. That’s basically 99% of my use case

For me it’s easier a lot of the time to just reformat and reinstall the OS than to troubleshoot every little problem as they arise. It’s great for learning and I’ve certainly learned a lot along the way but for my use case I just want this computer to work with my stuff right off the bat.

PerogiBoi OP , 1 day ago to linux in Switch from Ubuntu to something immutable?

Now that you mention it I do get another bug where if I pick up my computer in a certain way it logs me out. I’ve got a Framework 13.

This is promising. I’ve got the exact same laptop as you. Laughing at the need to make things complicated to keep your skills up.

X plane is leagues more stable than MSFS, I can guarantee that

I bought FS2020 a couple days ago and was unable to download the game. It was 160gb and the connection to Microsoft servers kept cutting. Most of the times I tried opening the program it would just crash on the loading screen. I was almost 2 hours in trying to just get it to download the game when I made the executive choice to just refund it before my refund window was past.

Bought xplane 12 instead. Less pretty by all metrics but it takes barely any time to open and is highly modable. At least now I can fly planes.

Dude genuinely thinks he needs to spread his DNA round because he believes he’s a divine being.

PerogiBoi , 7 days ago to asklemmy in Have you ever owned a rare or unusual car?

I drive a 2018 Prius. I’m convinced it’s the only Prius in my very rural corner of Canada. I don’t like driving it on highways cause I get subjected to road rage by all the pickup trucks. People pass me on double solid lines even when I’m 20km/h over the speed limit just because of the type of car it is.

Considering this reaction happens almost every time, I conclude my car is very rare.
