I want my smart Android TV to be dumb again

    You can try launcher manager and then the android tv version.

    Or you can use the adb commands your self. You don't need root just developer mode.

  • I want my smart Android TV to be dumb again
  • J4g2F J4g2F 2w ago 100%

    I recently bought a TCL google tv and first thing I did was install smarttube and a different launcher.

    That being said the first question in the setup proces was if I wanted the "smart" functions on or just have a basic experience and only use HDMI and cable tv.

    But the ads on the home screen with Google tv are really annoying. They are front and centered. I want my apps and inputs where the ad's are.

    For getting a idea of how your games run check out protondb.com you can add your steam library to easily check your library.

    For epic, gog and Amazon prime gaming you got heroic (https://heroicgameslauncher.com/) it also uses proton to play windows games.

    GPU drivers are fine. AMD just works for gaming and Nvidia (depending on distro you need to install the drivers, search how to install them and dont install them from the Nvidia website) works fine if you just have a simple setup. The Nvidia drivers are improving alot by the way.

    Random mouse, keyboard and other stuff is a hot or miss. Most of the time basic stuff simply works, but maybe there are no drivers/programma to set rgb or macros. (P.s. Try open rgb for rgb stuff)

    You can always try with a dual boot. If you not used to Linux and like gaming maybe something like pop os

  • YouTube Premium is getting a huge price hike in over a dozen countries, sparking user backlash. Some countries are experiencing hikes between 30% and 50%
  • J4g2F J4g2F 4w ago 100%

    I'm in the same boat as you and never found anything for Samsung tizen os. Smarttube is android based only and anything streamed to a Chromecast still has ads.

    Edit: okay I thought let's search one's more. And there is tizentube did not try it yet but seems promising

  • The old "leather" was falling of my polaroid sx-70 camera. So I printed some new skins. I'm not sure about the colour yet. Thinking more about some kind of red or turquoise. But the test worked.

    How dare you use a text editor because it's easy to use
  • J4g2F J4g2F 2mo ago 100%

    Edit a file, writing a quick shell script or whatever in the terminal. Nano is great. I don't see any use in learning vim or emacs. If I need something more I'm going use a gui editor anyway.

    Don't get triggered anyone it's just my preference

    Dude.... Core 2 duo is ddr1, ddr2 and ddr3 🦄🦄🦄

    Edit: just checked out the core 2 duo e8400. Not only does it support ddr3 and 2, but also ddr1. So added ddr1

  • J4g2F J4g2F 2mo ago 100%

    There are many 775 socket boards that support ddr3 and core 2 duo/quad supported ddr2 and 3.

    There are even motherboard that support both ddr2 and ddr3 like this gigabyte g41m combo

    Edit: damn at least some core 2 duo's support also ddr1. So core duo supports ddr1, 2 and 3

    There are almost no lga 775 boards that have ddr1 support and have core 2 duo as supported cpu. But this ASRock motherboard does support the core 2 duo and ddr1 and ddr2

    They are delicious and free, in the Netherlands they often grow in the "wild" just bring your basket and look out for a ranger(handhaving) as it is not legal. Al lot of people do it.

    As you can often can't pick them in the middle there is still enough for birds and insect's.

  • VR game streaming tool ALVR adds PipeWire support on Linux
  • J4g2F J4g2F 3mo ago 100%

    I use a quest 1 on Linux.(According to the alvr the quest 3 is also fully supported) Played about the last half of half life on Linux.

    However some VR games just don't run well under proton I still have windows installed for that. Even if i didn't boot into windows for a half year now.

    Also first recommend installing Linux in dual boot with windows if you don't know if al your programs/games work. Nowadays most stuff works but you can always keep windows for just in case.

  • (Netherlands) What happens when you can’t pay your tab at a bar because cash is refused?
  • J4g2F J4g2F 3mo ago 100%

    Most card only shops/places have a sticker on there door. But as a non Dutch person you probably don't know how they look.

    If you are somewhere where card or cash is not always accepted it's pretty normal to ask beforehand. Past summer we where on holiday in the Balkan where paying with card wasn't always possible. We just ask beforehand then we can check if we had enough cash or we choice to go somewhere else.

    If you in a situation (especially in a bar) there is probably someone how is willing to pay for you with card and you pay them with cash. You maybe don't get all the change but you problem is fixed. Or how it was fixed now.

    But if you are abroad and don't know it just ask beforehand. Doesn't matter if you want to pay with card or cash.

  • Is de NOS een echokamer voor radicaal rechts geworden ?
  • J4g2F J4g2F 4mo ago 100%

    Ik erger vooral aan het gebruik van "radicaal rechts" in de media. Bij de pvv geloven ze in omvolking, zijn journalisten tuig en ik weet nog wel welk groep ze onderandere minder willen hebben.

    Moeten we wachten tot ze oproepen tot geweld? Of zijn hun ideeën en honden fluitjes genoeg om extreem rechts gewoon extreem rechts te noemen.

    De nos gaat dus mee met het verplaatsen van wat normaal is in de politiek, maar ik vind ze geen Telegraaf 2.0

  • Do to a busy life (both good and bad stuff) I had a bit of a late start planting and sowing seeds indoors. But today cut the grass (which was knee high 😅) and planted a courget plant. Some weeding in the beds (I did it weekly luckily) and looks much nicer. Tomorrow or Monday the tomatoes and cucumbers will be planted. After that most seeds I have can be direct sow from now on.
