I found this gitlab issue two days ago after I noticed that the video camera was always on in powertop. The workaround appeared to work for me and the reduction in power consumption was noticeable, but Cheese wasn't able to find a camera afterwards. Didn't test other software.
Now, if I could just find a way of reducing the screen consumption...
I was in the beta for the original World of Warcraft and restarted when it officially launched. This was 20 years ago, so memory is fuzzy, but somewhere along the way I was playing it in wine exclusively under Linux. Game updates were common and frequently broke wine, but I kid you not a patch was available within 24h. Yes, this forced me to compile my own wine, but it wasn't that difficult then. Together with "checkinstall" I could maintain a clean .deb package from the source code.
Some links I found in a quick search showing the challenges:
I think that logic is employing the "best of two evils" ideology again. People should vote on the person that better represents them and person C is the one that represents most people. Voting against people they dislike is not the basis of democracy!
Almost 20 years ago I decided that I would check out the famous emacs and vim editors to then choose one. Never got to try emacs... Thanks Bram! You will never be forgotten.
Yes, I was talking about apps. In my case it's liftoff, so taking into account your comment I can assume information is available, but app must have to use it.
Connect is a bit better and more stable in my experience, but I'm staying with liftoff due to it being open source. But I miss its continuous vertical bars in the comments. And I miss the per-page scroll and folded comments by default of RiF!
Are you kidding me!? To move forward he had to write that he knew what he was doing! I'm pretty sure he saw the train wreck happening and pushed forward for views.
Before hosting my own FreshRSS instance I used TheOldReader (and Google Reader before that). It's a great way of focusing you're attention and keep track of sites. It does hurt them though, since it won't load their ads.
