I can’t figure out whether the verb is “still” or “physical”.

If a quick game lasts 10 minutes, then 10^152 minutes, which is about 10^136 times the age of our universe.

How far apart are the TVs?

If it’s cheaper and/or easier to run ethernet between the TVs, you can use HDMI-over-ethernet extenders (like this one). Fewer PCs/SBCs to manage that way.

I picked up an odroid HC4 a while ago, and it’s been great. Only has two slots, though. I have it set up to do periodic backups to a cloud storage service, so I feel pretty good about it overall.

No

kid-safe

Oh, I’m sure that will remain true for at least three minutes after people start using them.

Hot damn, you actually found it

I’ve wondered for years when we’d reach this point. Optics-based processors have the potential to blow way past the limitations of electrical/copper circuits, at least in theory. I’m curious to see where this leads.

Yep, another example of boots theory

As long as you don’t use a DE on it, a pi3 is great for experimenting with server software. I still use my 3b for plenty of things.

Assume spherical child

Apparently cheetahs aren’t “big cats”, they’re just large versions of small cats. They share features like purring and meowing, and their temperaments are closer to housecats than a tiger or lion.

Ah, the danger blep

The micropenis jokes write themselves. Seems too easy.

🫥 Their “repository” is a OneDrive folder copied from the last guy’s laptop

I feel like they missed the opportunity to call it “the Boiler”

I’ve been daily driving CachyOS for a while now. It’s fast, and I like the rolling release model. It pretty much worked with my 4070 out of the box I believe, I don’t think I had to do anything special there. I started with Cinnamon as my DE, but eventually moved to Gnome (Cinnamon still uses X11 I believe, and there were things that just worked better with Wayland, and with a handful of extensions, I can get it to look the way I like).

That being said, I wouldn’t recommend it to people less comfortable with Linux. CachyOS has its own repositories (which is the whole idea, the software is compiled specifically for more modern hardware), but it can sometimes be confusing when choosing packages to install. The wiki is pretty helpful though, especially with getting games up and running.

Surely you don’t think the insomnia could have anything to do with it?

Well, the research won’t research itself.

Thanks, I hate it
