> They probable put less strain and wear on the built-in battery too.

Nope, unless you can fore your phone to only charge to below 80% they strain the battery just as much if not more by keeping them at 100% all the time.

Looking into that as an alternative for my dying pixel 3a but CalyxOS is to GrapheneOS what OpenBSD is to fedora when it comes to security. Both are good for updates and common security features but grapheneos has implemented security features that are a decade ahead of other Androids. Hardened Malloc, Playstore Sandbox instead of MicroG, Memory Tagging extensions, Selinux, bootloader Security, etc.

> Is it very inconvenient to use as a daily driver?

No but it is not the most convenient thing either. The Security Additions, Sandboxing Setup and a bit of slowness due to the hardened memory allocator are more annoying than just using plain android and clicking ok for whatever data it wants from you. Initial Setup and understanding what makes grapheneos different and how to use it's security features takes a bit though.

> How often phone just crashes and requires a few days of debugging?

Crashes? I haven't had one in my 4 years of usage. At least not a systemwide crash. Crashes that require days of debugging are in my experience not something that happens because hardware and software on pixel devices is well tuned for each other.

> Will my bank app work on it?

Depends on your banking app. Some work without any play services, most work with sandboxed playservices, very few do not work at all. Best you can do is tell us which bank you use and see if another user can confirm it works.

In newer pixel models, everything is glued together. The Backplate is glued to the front, the battery is glued in so hard you can barely remove it and on top of it there's a graphene pad glued ontop of it for cooling reasons.

Look at this: https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Google+Pixel+8+Battery+Replacem...

That's not "swiss knife" replacement.

GrapheneOS is so far ahead in terms of security than anything else that it makes chosing anything but pixel hardware really questionable. But I REALLY want replaceable batteries. Why does everything have to suck nowadays?

Arguably this one: People are deceived about vaccine safety.

Is it deceiving to argue something is "safe" when the person receiving the advice is not educated enough in vaccines or statistics to make a truly educated decision? A truthful description about the safety of any medicine involves a deep understanding of statistics, medical testing and general risk calculation.

I find this somewhat questionable. I would self report as a believer in conspiracy theories like:

* CIA using mind control studies on unwitting participants (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MKUltra)

* A former US President conspired to try a putsch on the US Government on Jan 6th

* Russia is using Social Media farms to influence large scale of people (and that a lot of the degenerated political discourse in my home of Germany is fueled by it

* The German Secret Service (Verfassungsschutz) is deeply involved in the Murders of the NSU Terrorist Cell and itself infiltrated by right wing groups its supposed to protect us from

* The United States has Significant Data on UFOs that they are keeping from the people in Special Access Programs.

And so on. All of those were or are conspiracy Theories but they are either outright proven to have happened (first 3) or have significant evidence to back them up.

I am kinda doubtful those are the ones this study is concerned with though.

> Although DP 2.0 has been 'released', there are no products actually shipping with it

Here's a GPU with DisplayPort 2.1 https://www.mindfactory.de/product_info.php/16GB-Sapphire-Ra...

Here's a Display with DisplayPort 2.1 and higher Resolution&Refresh Rate than you specified https://www.mindfactory.de/product_info.php/57Zoll--144-78cm...

Locking in general yes, the specific implementation of locks on the DP Plug are annoying.

> A cheap DP-HDMI dongle makes all this go away. As long as VESA doesn't behave the same way, anyway.

You can even get cables that are DP on the input and HDMI on the output with minimal bulk.

I think the connector good be better in terms of reversibility and none of that weird locking it has but it's an incredible technical achievement. And it seems perpetually ahead of HDMI in terms of features and Bandwidth.

And it's a bit unfair to complain about AMD in this context anyway, not only were they the ones that proposed an Open Source Driver in the first place, from my experience their open source Linux support is excellent and in regards to flipping the bird, compared to NVIDIA they seem to do great up to date work with the Linux Kernel Devs.

This is the HDMI Group that's being Idiots in this case because the Content Mafia is afraid someone might use this to steal content. Anyway, back to torrenting stuff...

> C++

> Not even once

I don't know about quality but I guess a Raspberry Pi, HDMI Capture Card and OBS would do the trick and are within that price range.

Sony is saying PS5 is entering ‘The Latter Stage of Its Life Cycle’[0] while there are only 13 PS5 exclusive titles available [1]. So PS5 is propably not doing well.

It's not the worst "y'all are fired mail" we've seen in recent times but notice how the first two paragraphs, the most dense and buzzword ridden parts of the letter, do not include a concrete reason why they are reducing their workforce. After that part it becomes very precise and readable.

Then your Patents should not be near any account that should reasonably require 2FA. They are perfect prey for scammers.

Those were the Phenom Tripple Core Chips you are thinking of. What the Pencil mod did was enable the 4th core on the Tripple Core Chips. However, the 4th Core was likely a factory rejected core for some reason or another, so enabling it could lead to instability

> The 'big' cores can only perform at their peak frequency, power draw and IPC when not in a high multicore workload.

This is really not true. With a decent motherboard and sufficient cooling, you can force the big cores to stay virtually locked at peak clock speeds. Der8auer does it for a Ryzen 8000 APU here just as an example: https://youtu.be/VNYx72Elgss?t=335

Two Times in a row i got home from fosdem absolutely sick. It's always cold, rainy, the campus is an order of magnitude to small for the amount of people in attendance and the lecture rooms windows aren't opened long enough to deal with all the People Smells that accumulate. If you go there, were a Mask at all times and desinfect your hands frequently or you will end up sick. Oh, and drinks are cheapest from the vending machines because they are from the university, not from the commercial vendors.

Might not be all about performance but about security aswell.

If they life in an athmosphere similiar to ours wouldn't that civilisation be burried?

I would not want my brain connected to the internet. Imagine giving 4chan the power to fuck with humanities brains on a global scale.

Interesting thought. That would be a very good Argument against the dead Hand. I wonder why its not beging jammed also

This could be really cool for drone/fpv application.

Funnily enough thats Linda what's happening with llms.

That is the stupidest thing I have heard in a while. Just because a language might be abbreviated with SS will not stop any reasonable person from using it.

What an epic achievement, congratulations to the NASA Mission Team!

Isn't graphene just carbon?
