A #MacMiniM4 just destroys the #MiniPC market at $499, even with 32GB RAM and 1TB storage.

It's bonkers. And has a RTX 3050 like iGPU.

"If you're still using the app list on the Pixel Watch 3, you're doing it wrong
Switch to grid view if you seek efficiency; keep the list view if you like wasting your time."

related - This is why there should be a grid view for chrome browser bookmarks. Even on a huge screen, a grid layout is a better launcher than a list.

The "favorites new tab page" extension is essentially the solution. Only problem is I/we can't seem to reach the developer of the extension. If you haven't tried favorites new tab page, give it a go. It's really nice.

I am unaffiliated with this extension but I rely on it as a launcher for my browser bookmarks. It's been very reliable for the past year and I wish I had known about it 5 years ago when it was released.

If anyone can get in touch with the developer, please tell them to update it to manifest v3.

the newest review on the chrome web store:

"One of my favorite extensions. I primarily use it as a launching page for my bookmarks, but unlike most other extensions who show me what they want me to see, Favorites allows me to display exactly what I want in the size and layout that I want. Please keep this extension alive!" -

Dear Favorites New Tab Page Developers:

I hope this message finds you well. I’ve been using your "Favorites New Tab Page" extension and have found it incredibly useful. It has significantly improved my browsing experience, and I would be disappointed to see it go.

Recently, I noticed a notice from Google stating that the extension may no longer be supported soon due to not following the best practices for Chrome extensions. As a dedicated user, I wanted to reach out to express my appreciation for your work and to inquire if there are any plans to update the extension to meet the current Chrome Web Store guidelines.

If there's anything I or the community can do to support this process, please let me know. I believe there are many users like myself who would love to see this extension continue to be available.

Thank you for your time and for creating such a fantastic tool.

Best regards,
Mark

I mentioned in a post a few days ago (so… like… 100 posts back… I post waaaaaaay to much) that I am going to set up a new office space in one of the kids’ rooms. I am going to put together a new desk and a work-from-home workstation to use with my work-issued laptop. I was also thinking of putting a personal machine in there just for schnitzengiggles. I figured it would be a windows box and I could put some games on it or something. Mostly it would just be used for youtube, but who knows.

Today I had a crazy idea.

If I am going to have a desktop machine that isn’t a Mac (I am 100% a Mac user outside of work)… why not a duel boot with a version of Linux? Debian or Ubuntu? Something like that?

That could be fun, right? Get a little swagger for my Computer Science degree going? Yeah… we’ll have to look into that more once everything is setup and running.

I currently own an M1 MacBook but I’m interested in using a desktop Linux machine. I have little funding I could allocate to such an endeavor. Are there any dirt cheap little guys? Looking for maybe.. $50? Maybe that’s just not enough. Would be mostly a writing computer, maybe some light internet browsing. Nothing crazy. \_(ツ)_/¯

#linux #computers #desktopcomputer

Need help deciding on specs for a new desktop PC.
Been a very long time since I bought one so I'm hoping someone can recommend what I need.

Windows OS, and I'm using Adobe Indesign and Photoshop. (Can't change that for boring non negotiable reasons)

- what processor ?
- what size SSD for operating system ? (I've got a hard drive for storage already)
- amount of RAM ?

@lproven
🥥 So are you saying, Iproven, that the 2 terabyte M2 drive I put into the #DesktopComputer I'm building will probably be enough for reading emails, surfing the internets, and shit-posting on the #Fediverse? 🥥

🥥 I'm currently building what at my age will be the last #DesktopComputer I ever build.
When it's finished, I fully intend to sit my ample ass in front of it and shitpost on the #Fediverse all day long.
Unless the #GeneralStrike happens. I'll be shoulder-to-shoulder with all my comrades when we make that happen. 🥥

≪ Gewechselt! ≫

Ich habe nicht lange rechnen müssen, und eigentlich war es mir von vornherein klar:

Ein #Notebook verbraucht deutlich weniger #Energie als ein #Desktopcomputer.

Nachdem heute der #USB zu #HDMI Adapter, für den Anschluss eines zweiten Monitors, angekommen ist, habe ich komplett umgestellt.

Damit dürfte ich den #Stromverbrauch um rund die Hälfte reduziert haben.

Die #Monitore, Tastatur und Maus sind gleichgeblieben, sodass die Umstellung ganz einfach ist.
