  • A few things stand out to me in your screenshot.

    It lists the GPU as consuming 0W, which is likely not true. Based on that, the power / current limit reason is probably inaccurate

    Your temperatures are both well below TJ Max for those components, so I don’t see the Temp limit reason as valid either.

    Your GPU utilization is at around 50%, but I also see your framerate at an even 144 - I would surmise that you have vsync enabled.

    Unfortunately, Fediverse apps still have a lot of UX issues compared to their mainstream alternatives. Those will need to be smoothed over for mainstream adoption to take root.

    They’re attractive to the tech inclined who are comfortable working around what, to them, is minor clunkiness. Mainstream users have shorter attention spans and are more likely to move on when there’s friction.

    Far as the meme is concerned, the only Fediverse equivalent is Loops which is still in closed beta.







  • The whole West Coast does not have a separate minimum wage for waitstaff, so tips are on top of wages. Makes the whole “20% tip” culture feel a bit weird to me, but it’s still the norm.

    Been to a few no-tip restaurants, cost of individual menu items was higher relative to comparable items at other restaurants. I feel like I remember the final bill being comparable to or lower than meal+tip elsewhere.





  • I don’t know that it is. BigscreenVR is not an Apple product, so your comment doesn’t feel particularly relevant.

    They probably chose iPhones because they’re the most common device that has the capacity to get a 3D scan of someone’s face. They’re probably able to get semi-consistent results with this approach, whereas opening things up to the wide variety of IR devices in laptops and Android phones would increase the number of variables and make OP’s frustrating experience even more common.






  • I understand and respect your preference.

    A “power user” is typically going to go through the UEFI/BIOS settings immediately after assembling their machine to configure them to their liking. Having that preference, you likely fall within that category. I would add that, at this point, this practice is about 6 generations old at this point and in use by most motherboard vendors.

    As the article mentions, the feature could be considered useful. These products aren’t designed specifically for power users. Having network access and a frictionless path to driver deployment is ultimately beneficial to the majority of consumers who are going to interact with this hardware.
