22·9 months agoI assume it has a lot to do with efficiency, and correct me if I am wrong, but I think it goes Diesel -> Generator -> Traction Motors

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you need complete silence to read books?English
3·10 months agoI actually need some kind of unobtrusive noise. I usually pick some ambient scene off YouTube that has a fireplace and rain or rain with thunder.

Games@lemmy.world•Making peace with liking very few games?English
81·1 year agoI think you just described me exactly. I constantly replay a few specific games but very little grabs my attention like the few I love.

Technology@lemmy.world•Linux Mint and Framework Laptops Join ForcesEnglish
12·1 year agoI used Linux Mint Cinnamon on my Framework 13 using the 11th gen Intel and just recently upgraded it to the Ryzen 7840U. It works very well with both. For a nicer display scaling experience I recommend the 2880x1920 display.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•looking for a laptop without wireless connectivityEnglish
52·1 year agoIn most laptops you can remove the WiFi/Bluetooth card if you are ok with a permanent solution.

I don’t do any kind of coding and I’m sure the program is nowhere near as complete as Notepad++, but check out Notepadqq. It appears to be attempting to replicate the Notepad++ experience on Linux. https://notepadqq.com/s/

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How do I download YouTube videos in 1080p instead of 4k with yt-dlp? English
8·1 year agoTo elaborate a little on this, if the format you want doesn’t have audio you may have to combine two formats. -F lists the formats, -f to choose them. As an example you can choose to combine an audio and video format like this: yt-dlp -f 136+140 [URL]
Shave it. I did when mine started going and the maintenance is super easy. I’d never go back.
You’re welcome. I’m glad I could help.
I love mine I’ve had it over 2 years. It was a first-gen DIY Framework 13 and I ran into a faulty fan early on. I worked with their tech support and they sent a replacement fan under warranty. Took 5 minutes to put it in and all parts inside have QR codes that take you to the marketplace for replacements and repair instructions.
They do have official Linux support for Ubuntu and Fedora. I can attest to Linux Mint working well on it although I don’t use the fingerprint reader, which I’ve read has some issues on some distros.
As for upgradability, I’ve not needed to yet but you can just order a new motherboard and any other parts off their marketplace and drop it straight in. Should take around 20 minutes or so. I suspect this would take longer on the 16 since it is more complex.
Also, here is a link to the marketplace if you want to browse the parts. I think you could build one from scratch from here, but I think it would cost more that way. https://frame.work/marketplace

Apple@lemmy.world•Has anyone found a bluetooth carplay adapter that actually survives?English
1·2 years agoI’m aware of what CarPlay is. I use it in my aftermarket car stereo.

Apple@lemmy.world•Has anyone found a bluetooth carplay adapter that actually survives?English
2·2 years agoI just got to thinking… by “interface to the car itself” did you mean stuff like Bluetooth phone, steering wheel buttons, and backup cameras or is it more in-depth stuff like car settings and monitoring? I know the phone calls, steering wheel buttons, and backup cameras can be tied to aftermarket stereos. I’m not sure if they have figured out anything more yet or not.

2·2 years agoI found this that supposedly fits your car and does wireless CarPlay, but unfortunately the cost and interface with the car itself is still going to be a problem. I do wish modern cars left the car interface, A/C controls, and stereo separate. This along with privacy concerns and reluctance to spend on a new car is what keeps me driving very old stuff.

Upvote because that truly is an unpopular opinion from what I’ve seen and I think they make the Pontiac Aztec look classy.
