So… Is that kinda like a linux subsystem for windows?

I’m sarcastically referring to microsofts telemetry, UI changes, and anything else they try to sell that a lot of people simply don’t want or like.

I’m on the Index. Afaik steamvr is the only thing that really works on linux.

Ah! A fellow beat saber enjoyer.

I’d argue that a lot of the other “additions” and “improvements” make any improvement in comfort irrelevant, as they are unbearable.

On a sidenote, you can set up a generic bottle in Bottles, and then set things up so that double clicking any miscellaneous .exe files just runs them in that bottle.

Yeah well I’ve been planning to fix the half-implemented anime-series detection “any day now” for like 6 months so my bestness has caveats.

Whitelisted your three communities. Soutaku will comment automatically on posts it thinks fail to provide source, and whenever mentioned.

I just need to whitelist them.

Ah, as you noticed, if you just don’t provide a source, it’ll comment without asking.

Some kind of cable labeling would be nice.

The deck charger uses USB PD. It will charge anything that supports the standard as fast as possible (up to its rated 65W) and use normal 5v USB for everything else.

Yes.

For the power matter, you don’t. The device being charged, the charger, and cable does.

If you mean what is the maximum wattage that will actually be used, that should be the maximum possible between the charger, cable, and device. So look at their specs. Whichever has the lowest maximum, is what the others will match.

USB PD defines a protocol for the device and charger to determine max safe power. If the cable is replacable (not attached to the charger), it must be rated for PD and be able to tell the charger it can handle more than just the usual 5 volts at 2 amps.

USB PD chargers only output the maximum safe amount of power. That’s why I can use my 65W steamdeck charger to charge my phone if I want to. It just outputs normal USB charger power if the device on the other end can’t verify it can handle more.

It’s also why my SteamDeck charger is what I use to fast charge my phone, because it can actually talk to it using the USB PD protocol to request the voltage and amps it needs to fast charge.

I have literally never run into that until now. That seems like a dog whistle pitched so high, not even rodents can hear it.

If the word fren is not fren, why is it fren-shaped?

You’re welcome! Percy and Curiosity are magnificent machines! There’s a ton of fantastic content out there about their design and engineering. Smarter Every Day and Real Engineering both have videos about them.

Most people also don’t realize how absolutely HUGE they are, until they see a person stand next to one of them on video or in a picture.

They’ve lasted quite well.

But it’s apparently one of the things the designers want to do better with future rovers.

The design was meant to be light-weight while providing good traction on the martian surface, but it has turned out more fragile than they’d hoped. All six wheels on Curiosity are quite damaged.

The wheels on Perseverance are still aluminium, but instead of the zig-zag tread, the large gaps of flat metal that have been getting punctured, were done away with. The wheels on Percy instead have a dense pattern of wavy tread.

Also it’s apparently already being completely destroyed by a cheater.

It has some good moments.

Helicopter lightsabers still just absolutely dismantle me.
