Goodbye DeX, Samsung reveals the fate of the Windows app in c/samsung@lemdro.id

[–] alphapuggle@programming.dev 1 points 8 months ago

This is incredibly misleading, and not because of the author for once.

Samsung apparently has a "DeX for PC" app which essentially mirrors the phone screen to the PC. DeX, the desktop mode for when you cast or plug your phone into a display, is not going away. DeX for PC has been replaced with the same functionality in Link to PC (previously phone link), and Samsung is choosing not to continue making a competing product with their partner (where I believe Samsung is still the only one that supports screen mirroring in Link to PC anyway)

Anyone rocking the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless on Linux? in c/linux_gaming@lemmy.world

I had to do some configuration with pulse audio on fedora to get these at 24 bit, otherwise they'll work out of the box. I haven't tried running their app in wine or anything, but it works as an audio device out of the box

It'd be absolutely terrible if the form got spammed with garbage

This is kinda cursed, but I use Snapchat if it's something quick and dirty (and quality doesn't matter)

Do Not Buy NZXT | Predatory, Evil Rental Computer Scam Investigated in c/technology@lemmy.world

[–] alphapuggle@programming.dev 8 points 8 months ago

Been avoiding nzxt for years after I bought an H1 and it was a heaping pile of shit. PSU, AIO, and the included riser all failed within about a year of use. They sent my a replacement AIO with no fans and no mounting hardware (I missed that the bracket was still on, they did warn to take any accessories off but the fan was zip tied from the factory). Same with the PSU which they sent with no cables, which was visibly a different model than what I had cables for before, after arguing for a month to try and get them to send me anything. Didn't even bother with the riser, moved to a different case and just advised my friends against buying from them

Instead of tying "STOP", you can now press a button!

I wonder why we don't have any open-source printers... in c/microblogish@lemmy.sdf.org

That's just a 3d printer with extra steps

Corning offers bundle of commitments in bid to settle EU antitrust probe in c/technology@lemmy.zip

[–] alphapuggle@programming.dev 2 points 8 months ago

Correct me if I'm wrong, but exclusivity clauses seem kinda redundant for Corning. Gorilla glass is top of the chain; but I guess it (would've) protected future products from eating their lunch

Honestly it probably just runs the underlying git command
