Those do not have to cancel each other out necessarily. The open and modular design of Application APIs in AOSP lets the user decide which way they want to interact with the devices they own compared to the walled garden. Graphene does an excellent job by leveraging this design with further encapsulation while focusing on baseline compatibility and keeping up with google. Sadly the last one is a difficult task, so some features may take their time, while others we may never see.
That’s interesting. Apart from the pathfinding, Osmand behaves kind of sluggish for me and I had to get used to the UI/UX which can be overwhelming at first (even for tech savy people). But therefor its also a lot more sophisticated and feature complete which I also like.
To each their own, maybe even both ;)
Organic maps is the best alternative I could find. It’s on Accressent which you can get from the GrapheneOS App store. All the maps you want are downloaded to the device, no need for network access afterwards / continuously. Pathfinding is fast compared to e.g. Osmand. It’s pretty barebones though.
Thanks for the great writeup! Some of your Issues may be fixable, others stem from the fact that its sadly an alternative OS developed by a hand full of people compared to a multi billion dollar corp. But trying out new things and seeing true progression in development can be exciting too / make up for the inconveniences. In the long run this project can’t stay dependant on google, since they make their money from data and not hardware, and one of GrapheneOSs main purposes is to remove that source of income i guess. Also google is known to kill their products out of nowhere. Anyways:
That would only be stupid if you can’t live without ray tracing or you profit of NVIDIA-optimized software. The frame per dollar ratio has always been better on AMD since only the rasterization performace is key here. I have had only AMD cards in the past, currently being on a 6700xt, and never had any problems.
Just checked and i guess you’re right! Time to do some distro hopping again lol.
Not the heroes we deserve, but the ones we need.
Would be great to see some major distros shipping with KDE by default. Fedora e.g. had this idea a little while ago.
There are some Raspi competitors offering SBCs with RISC-V chips, there is even a RISC-V Mainboard for the framework laptops, but the last time I checked they sadly didn’t reach the performance levels of comparable ARM chips.
Switched from a raspberry pi 3 to a second hand x86 thin client (lenovo thinkcentre m920q) because raspberry pi 4 were not available at the time. Made me learn proxmox and a bunch of other cool stuff my raspi couldn’t handle.
I’m rooting for ARM / RISC-V to become more popular in desktop computing / servers though.
Scary that they banned WhitePeopleTwitter, a sub with 3M+ subscribers.
I have thought so as well for a long time, but i think at this point we would benefit more from contributions to existing clients like heroic, enabling achievements or further work / native reimplementation of the savegame syncing.
I have a suspicion that this isn’t even about culture or revenue anymore. It’s about control.
Motivation is high when asked, but no action is taken because of convenience, so the upper left corner is my guess. This phenomenon is called privacy paradox.
I have the same setup, you have to add the line Environment="HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0"
for that specific GPU to the ollama.service file
Next level networking right here :D
That’s worrying. Imagine what things like that do to those poor children. I hope she can come up with the money to buy some more followers at least. /s
I don’t know what you are using the card for, but I don’t think you will be able to saturate that pcie5 speeds. In gaming and everyday usage at least you won’t be able to spot the difference.
