Fediverse is worse than Reddit. Mod abuse, admin abuse, disinformation, and people simping for literal terrorists.

  • Are there any actual free programs that clean up all bloat ware on a new laptop? Without them putting hidden stuff in?

  • I've experienced it personally when my ex got her laptop back then and the antivirus software would immediately go off on nearly all HP programs that were preinstalled.

  • Weren't Intel cards super inefficient in regards to power draw for their performance?

  • Got the same card and you can definitely run smaller models on 8GB. There's no need to pay 200-300 bucks for a 4Gb ram upgrade though. Might be a nice card for people on the lower end but not in our cases. But yeah, I'd really like more vram too, especially with how expensive the higher end cards get - which AMD won't even bother with anymore anyway. Really hoping for something with 16+ GB for a decent price.

  • If that was some OEM design for a retail PC, fine. But fuck off with shit like glued back plates on dedicated GPUs you buy.

  • If you're running Windows, do a fresh install of stock Windows version, because manufacturers like HP often add keyloggers and shit into their own tools.

  • Intel's $249 Arc B580 is the GPU we've begged for since the pandemic | PCWorld

    Jump

  • Yeah, 40 is just not for me. I rather go 1080p and hopefully get 75+ FPS. It's really hard to go back from that to something as choppy as 40, even 60 feels kinda bad now.

    And yes, I use local LLMs too and 8 GB vram is kinda painful and limiting, though the biggest hurdle is still rocm & python which are an absolute mess. I'd love to get even more than 16 GB but that's usually for the high end segments and gets real pricey real quick.

    Linux and me playing a lot of indie titles is also why I'd still avoid Intel, even if they had something in the upper midrange, but I still would've loved to see some competition in that area because then AMD would have to also deliver with their prices and that'd be good for me.

  • As someone with a 6650 XT, which is a little slower than the 6700 or 4060, I doubt the increased vram, which is of course still nice, is enough to push it for 1440p. I struggle even in 1080p in some games, but I guess if you're okay with ~40 FPS then you could go that high.

    Unfortunately, if the 4060 is roughly the target here, that's still far below what I'm interested in, which is more the upper midrange stuff (and I'd love one with 16 GB vram at least).

    At least the price is much more attractive now.

  • “If someone doesn’t die because of it, we will never know, while the living have to suffer,” Nina Geneson Otis wrote in an email to The Standard. The real estate broker said daylighting is the kind of policy that makes Democrats lose elections.

    The fuck? Is parking at the corners of intersections legal in the US then? Because where I live it isn't for that exact same reason of it blocking visibility. And I'm sure she's suffering deeply for lacking a few parking spots... Dumb entitled cunt.

  • Not too surprising considering the sheer amount of distros out there.

  • FOSS Smash Bros, would like ideas.

    Jump

  • I have little doubt in the interest, as long as there's a solid execution for it. Smash is an immensely popular franchise.

    Jump

  • You talk about ideas for different characters already, but there's no base for any of this yet as far as I understand? Like, Smash characters all have a standard moveset that they share, there's certain physics, rules, all the menus, the levels, etc. etc. - does any of that even exist yet? I would really not bother with thinking about content like characters when there's 0 features or code yet. You don't just want to hardcode a bunch of characters.

    Jump

  • they're presenting the idea that some people might be less confused and make different life choices if more people tolerated traditionally-gendered subjects (like clothing and makeup) from anyone without judgement

    The problem is that a gender & sexuality based on a spectrum makes it extremely hard to define things, which is something humans just naturally do and why we ended up with the binary way of it. But if we have a spectrum ranging from masculine to feminine, then we suddenly have not just trans people, but also those who may identify & look like the opposite gender, but don't want to fully transition (i.e. keep their birth sex). You basically have anything in between the two binary categories now, and that is consequently muddy on top of being new and foreign for most people and even often within trans communities. Doesn't help that research on those topics is also still fairly early and definitions can change rather quickly at times, making it hard to keep up with it.

  • Set Notification icon to only show dot when there are notifications?

    Jump

  • I don't have a dot at all. And if I set it in the sys tray to only show when relevant, then it is actually one if not the only one that actually hides itself when there's no new notification. Assuming that's a standard KDE panel.
