  • The MT7902 WiFi/Bluetooth Chip by Mediatek Corp. does not (and probably never will) have any official driver support. There are some unsuccessful community attempts to get it working, but nobody actually managed to pull it off.

    G6 Soundcard works for simple pass-through but SBX features aren’t natively enabled, you need a Windows install with Soundblaster Connect to enable the functionality and load the settings into the onboard memory of the card.
    Linux “supports” Dolby Atmos but it sound mostly like dogwater if not combined with Atmos mixed audio.

  • You’re not getting burned alive but its hot enough that you’re constantly sweaty.

    The demons don’t actively torture you but they are going to jump you when you turn the wrong corner.

    You’re not there for eternity, it’s just really difficult to leave.

    You don’t eternally burn in the flames to atone for your sins, but you have to work to pay them of.

    Shit I think I just described San Francisco.




  • You know what’s more crazy. Electrons don’t flow at the speed of light through a wire. Current is like Newtons Cradle, you push one electron in on one side and another bounces out on the other side, that happens at almost light speed. But individual electrons only travel at roughly 1cm per second trough a wire.
