Using the Index, SteamVR keeps throwing a display not found error for the headset. Tracking seems to be registering but the screens remain black. I saw some people say that replacing the trident cable fixed this issue for them, but I am doubtful since it just works in Windows. I tried the stable, legacy, and beta versions of SteamVR, all to the same effect. Also tried changing the amount of displays connected and what port the headset uses. I imagine it’s some sort of display driver issue (Nobara linux, wayland on nvidia) but I have not been able to figure it out.

I can’t get SteamVR to work in Linux unfortunately, it’s the primary thing preventing me from deleting my Windows partition

Fiber to the home is pretty neat. I could actually more than double the speed to 3Gb/s symmetrical for about $14 more per month, but frankly even the current speed is way more than I need. Will probably step it down a bit when my promotional discount ends.

Forgot to mention earlier, Steam is an example of a real world situation where I do actually hit around 1.5 Gb/s down

Certainly true in regards to real life use, but it’s a good way to check that there isn’t some issue on my end that’s limiting the speed I am paying for

Unfortunately doesn’t quite reach the speeds speedtest.net can hit, but still cool to have a tool like this

Headphones are great but they aren’t speakers

The issue with wanting a bigger battery is that many high end laptops already have the largest capacity that you can take on an aircraft in NA/EU (100 Wh)

I think Brave is one of the few somewhat common browser/search companies that is worse than Google

This seems significantly more impactful than pets

Using the F40 preview with KDE and a regular update from Discover rolled xz back to the known good version 5.4.6

Interesting, I had zero problems with the RPMFusion Nvidia driver on Fedora on two machines that did have TPM and secure boot. In fact, it was surprisingly easy.
