I've seen some people say that since HDMI 2.2 recently released the HDMI forum doesn't care as much about "protecting" 2.1 anymore.

If FOSS drivers support HDMI 2.2 when devices start shipping with HDMI 2.2 ports then this'll be disproven, but the HDMI forum held off on allowing AMD to implement 2.1 support in their Linux drivers for years and only relented when they released HDMI 2.2. Valve with the Gabecube probably didn't have much to do with it considering how low volume it is.

It happens on MediaTek wifi adapter cards as well (and the AMD ones that are just rebadged MediaTek).

Intel only used the converters for 1st gen Arc dGPUs. Battlemage has native HDMI 2.1 and also ran into the same issues as AMD.

Firefox has baked in adblocking (using adblock-rust, brave's built in adblocker), but it has to be enabled through about:config and not the settings UI.

Firefox started shipping adblock-rust in March (Brave's built in adblocker). It's not properly wired up in the UI yet but you can enable it and add filter lists in about:config.

Clearly you just need to buy those team members some nice programming socks so they can finally enjoy rust.

IceFrog didn't create Dota, he took over maintenance of it from a long line of other people at the time, including Guinsoo (who added Roshan and the recipe system) who worked at Riot (though Icefrog was definitely the best maintainer, Dota was already hugely popular before Icefrog had anything to do with it).

Dota itself wasn't even original, it was based on a StarCraft 1 custom map.

Straight piped trucks can easily hit over 100dB (I've seen numbers as high as 118dB) which is well above the 85dB hearing damage level, and is at the level where hearing damage occurs in minutes or even seconds of exposure.

Sorry I don't want to get tinnitus just because some asshole wanted to make his truck "sound better".

There really aren't very many different tip types available for airpods, since they use a special clip attachment method that means you can't use any standard existing tips. I've been looking for aftermarket tips for my pro 3s and there's maybe 5 actually different tips available (crappy foam, decent foam, bad hybrid, basic sticky silicone, basic bad rubber). They're distinctly lacking in good quality tips with different textures (can help with comfort and keeping them in your ears) or different bore sizes (comfort and changes the sound signature). TRI clarion, Tangzu Tang Sancai, Penon Liqueur, JVC Spiral Dot are a few different standard tips that would likely be way more comfortable than the standard airpods tips if you could actually use them.

Shoes are actually a great analogy here, because the companies all use different lasts, so it doesn't matter that eg. Adidas has thousands of different shoes in over a dozen sizes, none of them actually comfortably fit my feet because the heel is always too wide and the forefoot too narrow.

Also, they only come with 5 tip sizes (4+1 on the buds) and use an oval shape which I personally find less comfortable than circular tips+stems.

I've owned 2 of these (returned and reordered thinking the first might've just been bad) and neither worked properly on Linux with an AMD 9070xt and an LG CX. They'd have black screen dropouts every few minutes, and occasionally full screen color corruption.

If it was a Ferrari it would at least be light. Considering how heavy it is, it's more like a Rolls Royce lol.

Iceland has a famously mild climate, even during winter their average temperature is still above 0C.

You do know that both the Kobo Libra and Sage have physical buttons, right?

Part of that might be if you're using them wireless because then you're double compressing the audio which amplifies the artifacts (mp3 -> Bluetooth compression).
