EXACTLY! If i would experience such issues on my daily drivers i would reconsdier my choices. Thw question is, this it bother one enough to change things.

And: i didn’t need to fiddle anything on my Systems to get them (bsck) to running in the last 10 years. That may not always be the case, especially on Laptops. Now we start fiddling to keep Windows running on slightly oder Hardware. So as always, it depends

I am fine with that. I personally just don’t see the point of fiddling with your os every time the vendor fucks up. I would just live with it or ditch it completely.

And yes, ans /s would have helped

Did i write install Linux?

While I am a Linux user, this was a joke. Windows does random Windows stuff. Windows AI features cause GPU usage. The processes responsible, according to OP are Windows core services. So, what other fix is there to avoid this besides removing windows?

Maybe AI garbage? Just guessing. There is an easy fix: remove windows from your system. Also good for privacy

That may be ab implementation detail of android auto for your car manufacturer. I never needed to sync the contacts in BMW and VW.

I had some troubles with Ford, but there It worked via USB instead of Bluetooth pairing without forced sync.

Edit: I am in Germany, so data protection laws may also be a reason why it works for me

Android auto provides notification content to the car. Also of course a virtual screen.

So, there is not much that may be an issue. And you don’t habe to share your contact data with your car if you want to do hands free calls. That’s a plus

First of all, this would be illegal in many countries.

Second of all: we can differentiate cars by: has red lights, back.

If we lose this option we can no longer differentiate easily if there is a car coming towards us or driving away from us.

That part is responsible for 3 things:

• Noise. It reduces the amount of turbulence under the car
• fuel efficiency, same as Noise
• protection from the environment. It reduces the amount of dirt and water that hits parts like the engine and other stuff there

It is not critical and as others said, you could leave it of. I would recommend to have a look of there was any other damage done while they ripped off, as the weather allows to

To Realy harness every single BOGOMIP, there is only one: gentoo with cpu specific compiler flags. Distcc helps.

For everything less it does not really matter. Use the one you feel good with.

And to be honest, gentoo is my daily driver. But on a threadripper… i would just put a fedora on it and call it a day

There us so much wrong with this article. From installing a fucking browser via flatpack, over ignoring the fact that office 365 is a thing to the fact that there are alternatives to Adobe.

Sure, not everything is perfect right now, and people have to learn new stuff.

I have migrated multiple people to fedora in the last two years. And guess what, regardless of type or age of user, they had no troubles with it to this day. They use gimp, play, have browsers with password managers, and write office documents. Yes. MS office.

Articles like this are one reason why people hesitate to make the switch. Doompainting, that’s all it is.

And what the hell are you talking about vrr? Kde, sway and hyperland support it for years now under wayland. Gnome still does not have it, but that is gnome.

And if more distributions would not per default use gnome, such misconceptions wouldn’t exist in the first place.
