The bloody lights everyone is obsessed with nowadays caused me numerous nights of shit sleep. Some devices designed by companies who clearly think too much of themselves decided that they would keep their LEDs on despite the computer shutting down.
If anyone else is experiencing this issue, look for ErP in your BIOS/EFI and then turn it on/enable it.
Caveat: you won’t be able to charge your USB devices using your PC USB ports while the PC is shutdown if you change this setting.
Thanks. Just installed a new OS and I’m still working out the kinks. I had that extension installed previously but because it just works in the background I didn’t even think to re-install it.

Ah, yes. Truly, I cannot argue against this impeccable logic. I am swayed.
I feel kind of lame saying so, but I just use Kate for taking notes.
I only realised it was supposed to be for editing code when it gave me a debug error when I wrote something with parentheses (what do you mean there’s an error in line 43!? That sentence makes perfect sense!)
The Teletubbies theme song was pretty cool.
Heard of them, but couldn’t name a single song or pinpoint their genre.
Checked out a song on YT to get an idea and it was literally just a generic boy band. I mean… I guess their songs rhyme? But then, so do nursery rhymes, and they haven’t been my thing for quite a while now.
To each their own.
I’m not opposed to either. I think of this a bit like procedural generation, except better.
Speak for yourself. As an avid gamer I am excitedly looking towards the future of AI in games. Good models (with context buffers much longer than the .9s in this demo) have the potential to revolutionise the gaming industry.
I really don’t understand the amount of LLM/AI hate in Lemmy. It is a tool with many potential uses.
I take posts like these as an opportunity to block people who spam Lemmy with stupid nonsense. I’m heartened to know I won’t ever see a post by this person ever again.
I had to read this 3 times to make sense of it… Look, I know full stops are overrated, but commas are important! And they’re easy too, just place one in the exact same place you would if you paused while speaking.
Jesus Christ can you at least be accurate?
Speaking of accuracy, your comment seems to identify the wrong issue. Navigating the install menus in a non-Arch linux distro is pretty much analogous to Windows. The biggest difference is that Linux distros don’t have 3-4 pages where they sneakily try to include privacy-breaching clauses during the installation.
The real issue is starting the installation in the first place. Windows is easy, because hardware manufacturer’s have en masse bent over to willingly present themselves to Microsoft, Linux doesn’t have this advantage and users must figure out how to get around the 7,000 different Secure Boot UEFI configurations before they can even start the installation process.
forgot they call weed drug
Clearly you didn’t, because weed is completely unrelated to this story. You saw the word ‘drug’ and assumed it must mean ‘marijuana’.
Edit: You know what, this response was pretty dickish. Sorry. Ignore the above.
Some people down vote popular things because they are popular.
Didn’t downvote this myself, but I can understand why some people would. I have personally blocked numerous users and communities who post variations of the exact same post over and over and over again.
There are only so many times I can read the same bloody thing about Elon Musk, Donald Trump, Israel, and Linux.
I agree. Trump/Musk/Netanyahu are arseholes. Linux is awesome. But I don’t bloody well want to read a variation of the same post every single time I access Lemmy.
I can’t think of a single VR game that has come out that felt like a fully fleshed out game. The games I’ve played the most have all been ports (e.g. Borderlands 2, Skyrim, Fallout 4, The Forest) because native VR games are typically only 3-6 hours long.
Meta really make it annoying to use too. My next headset will definitely not be a Meta.
I equate Samsung TVs with HP printers. I would rather go without than have to put up with their nonsense.
Unless the fan has a separate battery back up (which would be very weird) then this should not matter if you enable ErP.
AFAIK enabling ErP will shut off power to all components when the computer is turned off. Good luck!
