Same. This game already has pushed my CPU to 100 degrees and sent my GPU fans to 'insane RPM' mode, and I'm just coming to end of act 2.

Thanks for the encouragement & advice. I'll give the web installer a go once I've had some sleep.

I wanted to try it out today. The install looked intimidatingly-complex to me, is there an 'easy mode' installation method?

I've edited the post, thankfully someone beat me to replying so you weren't left hanging. My apologies!

The advantages are, every part of the device can be easily recycled, and the parts to make the charge-holding portion of the battery are less damaging to acquire than in li-ion

From what the article said, most definitely not. But, it doesn't look very complex in terms of scaling / manufcaturing it and they say they want to get it to market quickly.

RMIT engineers say they've tripled the energy density of cheap, rechargeable, recyclable proton flow batteries, which can now challenge commercially available lithium-ion batteries for capacity with a specific energy density of 245 Wh/kg.

I found not being able to remove the app frustrating, and wanted to go further than disable it. My thinking was, it's my phone, I want it setup my way, and I don't want bloat... especially facebook bloat on the phone.

What's a religion you don't believe in that you find interesting and what about it piques your interest? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I read most religious texts when I was a young teen, cause I was a little nerd who loved to read and had nothing better to do.

The Vedas (Hinduism) were really intriguing. Some of their stories very much sound like a futuristic post-human society, with stuff like nuclear warfare.

Austin Powers. Introduced my dad (who bears a striking resemblance) to it and we had a right laugh watching together

I used to have a Samsung Galaxy S6, I rooted it so I could remove the facebook app... turned out they built a custom circuit in a little chip that permanently breaks NFC if you rooted it. Ridiculous.

I got a pixel 7a about 6 months ago. It's a brilliant phone, once you remove all the google shit / bloat and block all the trackers.

I tried to look for a super-remote forest location last year; my intention was to take a tent, get dropped off on the edge, go deep into a forest with laptop & keyboard, to write some forest-inspired music. I was pretty shocked to find out that all our once-deep forests are criss crossed with roads. You were kinda joking, but you're literally right, there's nowhere far from a road in any of our forests.
