My mother got an HP 255 G8 laptop on which the webcam just will not work no matter what I do.
It’s enabled in the bios and the correct driver is installed but the built-in webcam is not detected. Also the keyboard got damaged with the space button only responsing to center presses after roughly a year of usage.
I know it’s a relatively cheap machine but the driver issue pissed me off
That sounds awesome. I always wished to be able to visit other regions in my pokemon games. It’s one of the reasons why I enjoyed soulsilver so much
I don’t know if you were aware of this but K-9 Mail has joined up with the thunderbird developers and will at some point transition to thunderbird for mobile devices
I can’t turn it off because none of the lightbulbs in the house would turn on anymore
Personally I try to avoid making anything in my home actually dependant on my server. I have a single lamp that can only be controlled from my phone and that’s only because it’s so rarely used that I didn’t want to put in the effort. Everything else is local first and only gets extended functionality from my server running.
I’ve had a couple issues with my zigbee stuff over the years on the server side and I would be really pissed if I wouldn’t be able to turn my lights on because I haven’t gotten around to fixing my server yet.
I wasn’t even aware of it being a format from google. My personal issue is that some programs and apps I use don’t support webp
The point of my comment was that the AldiTalk Kombi Paket S for 8,99€ offers double the amount of data compared to the Daten Paket M mentioned by the previous commenter with the same speeds for a Euro less
The Kombi packages are actually cheaper. The AldiTalk Kombi-Paket S gives you 10GiB with 5G for 8,99€.
I love that they are still updating AoE2 (at least the latest remaster) with balance patches and new content despite its age
Is there actually any car manufacturer that has decent hardware and software? I have never driven a really “modern” car but from all that I’ve seen so far the interfaces are typically horrible to interact with and laggy to the point where I prefer my car as dumb as possible
I believe that is an Android 14 feature, not something exclusive to Pixel phones
Based on all the stories I’ve heard so far about senior engineers, if you get promoted high enough you don’t even have time to write code anymore
I have a degree in computer science. Today I was defeated by my mother’s laptop not detecting its fucking webcam. Downloaded the official driver from HP but I have no clue whether that one even got installed because the install scripts always ended weirdly fast without a success or error message. I will never buy a cheap HP laptop again.
I used KDEConnect in the past but ran into issues where somehow media sent to my phone wasn’t saved somehow. Probably some permission issue but I didn’t manage to fix it. Also the windows client only allows selection of one file at a time.
Recently I’ve tried out LocalSend and found it a much smoother experience.
Yeah, I see how that makes sense. I typically don’t buy “cheap” shoes but rather shoes for which there is likely a newer model available or the store has some other reason to get rid of the old stock and are therefore heavily discounted.
Exceptions can be made for shoes that have a special purpose, e.g. hiking boots or dress shoes in my opinion. For everyday stuff I look for the cheapest neutral looking ones that fit well
Digital when I’m not at home and need to remember some stuff for later. If I’m at home I use a notebook so I have an excuse to use my fancy fountain pens.
Not all devices can play av1. You will still shoot pictures and videos in 264 or 265. Can you already edit av1? Do you do that? Check that everything you own and do can work with av1. You should prefer 265 over 264 nowadays.
The default windows 10 installation for example can’t even handle h265 -.-
Honestly I kind of like that building for its uniqueness. I would love to see it in some form of solarpunk style where it is mostly overgrown with plants
This is what I use for youtube on my android tv. Works mostly great although I recently had some stuttering during playnack that I have yet to find the cause of
That’s the main reason I switched from computer science to electrical engineering with a focus on embedded software. Programming microcontrollers to achieve something tangible is a lot more satisfying for me than writing some application that only runs on my pc to shuffle some bits around
