Running Windows is officially supported by Apple, yes most guides use bootcamp to set it up, but you should be able to create an install drive like a normal PC and boot from it by holding Option/Alt as you press the power button. Mac's usually just use EFI like any modern PC under the hood.

Nah, bootcamp assistant is Apple's dual boot setup tool, it is a native install, but it has to be started from MacOS.

For those wondering, when using the biggest QR code with the maximum error correction (10,208 bytes), 1,454,942 QR codes is slightly less than 14GiB, which should be more than enough for a Windows ISO.

My math: (1454942×10208)÷1024÷1024÷1024≈13.83

Edit: Damn another guy beat me to it, now I wonder how I'm so far off.

AFAIK fast startup only affects shutdown, clicking restart will always do a full reboot. Shift clicking shutdown will do a full shutdown like you said, but shift clicking restart will start recovery mode.

I believe the main contributor for drm_panic wants to add one eventually. Here's what it might look like:

Also it looks like the colours are configurable at compile time (with white on black default).

(with type covered as a bonus)

Relevant fact: Most standard non-letter batteries are named after their physical size, for example a CR2032 is 20mm diameter x 3.2mm height; or not a button battery, but an 18650 is 18mm diameter x 65.0mm height.

I'm probably jumping to conclusions, but Nvidia?

I don't believe so, I think OP just misremembered 1970.

The 1704067200 is the 2024 new year, in seconds from 1970 (normal Unix time).

Woah peertube federating with lemmy is actually really cool!

CS2 was released as an update to CSGO, so it's effectively the same game as far as steam charts go.

This is more of a public note to self, but if anyone else had screwed up fonts, default cursors, and missing minimise/maximise buttons in flatpaks on KDE Wayland, put this in your /usr/share/xdg-desktop-portal/kde-portals.conf:

[preferred]
default=kde;gtk;
org.freedesktop.impl.portal.Settings=kde;gtk;

Then restart xdg-desktop-portal.

Source: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=474746#c12

Apparently this will be fixed in 5.27.9 releasing on the 24th anyway, but I've tried so many different 'solutions' and this had been annoying me for weeks.
