In the footnotes they mention GPT-3.5. Their argument for not testing 4 was because it was paid, and so most users would be using 3.5 - which is already factually incorrect now because the new GPT-4o (which they don’t even mention) is now free. Finally, they didn’t mention GPT-4 Turbo either, which is even better at coding compared to 4.
You cannot go back after trying it
I did! Used to have a Samsung 49" ultrawide. After using it for a couple of years, I sold it and got a 16:10 32" QHD, which I found worked better for me (+ one or two laptop screens for chat / random stuff when I’m doing serious work).
The biggest issue I had with the ultrawide is that most of the games that I played weren’t optimised for it, especially in some games where things like the mini-map might be at the far end of the screen, or worse, if it was an older game then you’d have to put up with black bars, or play the game in windowed mode.
I don’t play D4 anymore so I can’t say if this still works, but back when I did, I used to launch it (ie the Battle.net launcher) from Steam, as a non-Steam game.
I also used the latest Proton-GE as the compatibility tool, so that’s something you could try as well.
IMO you shouldn’t look at it as “should I become an x user”, because that sort of implies you’re getting married to that distro. Instead, you should be asking, “should I use x to solve y?” For instance, I use RHEL, Debian (Raspbian), Fedora (Asahi), Fedora Atomic (Bazzite) and Arch. I also use Windows, macOS and FreeDOS. All solve different needs and problems. There’s no rule saying you should only stick to one distro/OS use whatever suits your needs, hardware and environment the best. :)
Because MIUI deviates from stock Android so much that it often causes unexpected behaviour and bugs. So it’s easier for developers to just say they don’t support it, instead of putting up with negative reviews and complaints.
This is a general tech community, mostly centered around news and end-user technology discussions, so it’s very unlikely you’ll get an answer here. Might want to try asking on Reddit or some dedicated Datto/Connectwise forum.
Kiwi here, no such issues with my Sync. Is there a particular community where you see these errors mainly (if so, can you link it here)?
Also, when you get those errors, it might be worth accessing that community directly using a local account - and if the images load fine, that would point to a federation issue with your server.

Considering that predicting the next word from context is the one thing LLMs are really good at, I just don’t understand how none of these developments have found their way into predictive keyboards.
The problem is that LLMs require a considerable amount of computing power to run, unlike the simple markov chain predictions that keyboards use. You could use a cloud-based service like ChatGPT or something, but most people wouldn’t want their keyboards to send all their keystrokes to a remote server… and even if they didn’t know or care, the response time wouldn’t be good enough for real-time predictions.
Now smartphone SoC makers like Qualcomm have started adding NPUs (neural processing units) with their latest chips (such as the SD8 Gen 3, featured in the most recent flagship phones), but it’s going to take a while before devices with NPUs become commonplace, and it’ll take a while for developers to start making/updating apps that can make use of it.
But yeah the good news is that it is coming, it’s only a matter of “when” - I suspect it won’t be long before the likes of SwiftKey start to take advantage of this.
They are actually pretty decent though? At least all the ones since Zen 3+ (Radeon 680M, 780M etc)
I have the previous model, the UM780 XTX (same iGPU - Radeon 780M) and it’s been very decent for 1080p gaming (medium-high, depending on the game). Even 1440p is playable depending on your game/settings. Cyberpunk 2077 for instance runs perfectly at 70FPS on 1440p low, which is incredible if you think about how this game caused so much trouble when it first came out.
I also have a ThinkPad with a Zen3+ APU (Radeon 680M), and it can run Forza Horizon 4 at Ultra settings and 60FPS locked.
On both these machines, I game on Linux (Bazzite and Arch), so it’s pretty awesome that I can run Windows games and get so much performance with cheap hardware, and using open-source drivers.
So yeah, these are some really great times for APU / mini PC / AMD / Linux fans.
The answers here are only partially correct. If you want to use your device internationally, there are four things or categories you need to consider:
Carrier locked devices are exactly that, these are the ones sold by your carrier and subsidised, they usually mention that you can’t use them with other carriers. Eg the SM-S928U of the S24 works only on AT&T. If you have one of these, you may be able to buy an unlock code online to unlock your phone. Depending on your model, you might also need to flash compatible firmware or unlock additional bands from the service menu, if you want to be able to actually use it with your destination carrier.
Region-specific devices generally have limited cellular bands, meant for usage in that country. Eg although the SM-S928U1 variant of the S24 is factory unlocked (unlike the SM-S928U), it may not carry all the bands required for operation outside the US. If you’re unsure about compatibility, use this website to check the bands for your target country/carrier. Generally though, if you travel a lot, it’s recommend to buy the international / global variant of a phone. As an alternative, if you have a US variant Samsung, you could use the service menu to enable all bands. Though regardless of the variant, it’s always a good idea to check the band compatibility before you purchase the device/travel.
Carrier whitelisting is a recent annoying thing which carriers have started doing for some technologies such as 5G, VoLTE, VoWiFi etc. Some of these features may or may not be critical for you, for eg, if the destination carrier no longer offer 2G/3G services, that means you must be able to get VoLTE in order to make calls. And VoWiFi is needed if you’re in an area with poor reception, but have WiFi access. Finally, 5G would be a bonus thing but most carriers allow only whitelisted models to connect to their 5G services. Samsung normally should work in general, but given how many variants Samsung makes, there’s no guarantee that your specific variant would be able to use some/all of these services. So you’ll need to check with your target carrier in advance to see which of their services your phone would be able to support.
Finally, some countries may have regulatory requirements which may legally prevent shops/carriers from selling you a SIM card, if your phone isn’t in their database. For instance, in Japan, it’s technically illegal to operate a device without a “giteki” mark - and if your phone doesn’t have this, operators may refuse to sell you a card. In this case however, you should be fine if you order a compatible SIM/eSIM online before arrival (eg from Sakura Mobile).
It’s easiest to just register a domain name and use Couldflare Tunnels. No need to worry about dynamic DNS, port forwarding etc. Plus, you have the security advantages of DDoS protection and firewall (WAF). Finally, you get portability - you can change your ISP, router or even move your entire lab into the cloud if you wanted to, and you won’t need to change a single thing.
I have a lab set up on my mini PC that I often take to work with me, and it works the same regardless of whether it’s going thru my work’s restricted proxy or the NAT at home. Zero config required on the network side.
The bypassnro command still works though. Installed 23H2 in a VM yesterday and it worked fine.
This shouldn’t even be a question lol. Even if you aren’t worried about theft, encryption has a nice bonus: you don’t have to worry about secure erasing your drives when you want to get rid of them. I mean, sure it’s not that big of a deal to wipe a drive, but sometimes you’re unable to do so - for instance, the drive could fail and you may not be able to do the wipe. So you end up getting rid of the drive as-is, but an opportunist could get a hold of that drive and attempt to repair it and recover your data. Or maybe the drive fails, but it’s still under warranty and you want to RMA it - with encryption on, you don’t have to worry about some random accessing your data.
GSIs are the way to go these days for anything that’s not a Pixel. I’m not sure if there’s a fully-degoogled GSI out there though, but you can check the list here: https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Generic-System-Image-(GSI)-list
Or here: https://xdaforums.com/f/treble-enabled-device-development-a-ab-roms.7260/
And once you found a GSI you like, install using the instructions here: https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Samsung
But it’s best to check XDA forums as well for any device-specific quirks.
I would recommend going for an all-AMD laptop, with a Ryzen 7xxx/8xxx series CPU, such as the Framework 13/16. You can go for either the APU version (integrated graphics) or one with a discreet Radeon card if you’re a serious gamer (the 16" Framework comes with a Radeon RX 7700S). If you’re unsure about the gaming performance, you can look up your respective APU/GPU model on YouTube - there should be plenty of videos demonstrating GPU performance. notebookcheck.net is also a good site to check.
Also, with an all-AMD setup, you’ll have very little issues with Linux compatibility. AMD Linux drivers have been making some great progress thanks to the Steam Deck and Valve (and also AMD’s recent opensource initiatives - like the plan to opensource ROCm and even GPU firmware), so it’s a pretty exiting space to be in.
But whatever option you end up going for, avoid nVidia - you’re just asking for trouble, if you plan to run Linux with it. Now there are some interesting opensource driver projects such as Nova and NVK, but it’s still a while (years?) away before they may reach maturity, so I wouldn’t recommend them at this stage.

In saying that, all Office versions since 2016 have been called v16 - so that first bit won’t change (unless MS pull another stunt like Windows 11).

Starts with a T and ends with an a?
Seconded. ODT is the way to go, used to use it a lot back in my sysadmin days to generate specific builds.
Sounds like an issue with your WiFi adapter/driver. You can verify this by creating a mobile hotspot on your phone and connecting your PC to it and see if you get the same issue, if you do then it proves it’s got nothing to do with your router.
Another thing you can check is your journalctl logs - run
journalctl -fbefore launching the game, then run the game and quit it when you run into the DNS issue, and check the logs at the time the issue occurred. If there’s indeed a hardware/driver issue, the errors should show up in the logs.If it’s a driver issue, there may not be much you can do about it besides reporting the bug and implementing some sort of workaround (eg using a VPN). Of course, depending on the error, there may be a fix you can apply, like turning of aspm for your chip. A better option would be to replace the WiFi chip/adapter you’re using and get something that’s better supported under Linux, like something with an Intel or Atheros chip. But check journalctl first and see how it goes from there.
