  • Does anyone have experience cutting their own hair? Should I cut my own hair?

    Jump

  • Well, if you have a lot of hair to play around with, you can just try it without much risk. I cut my own hair (male, short hair) but I find it really difficult to manipulate scissors or clippers while looking in the mirror. I also can't really do the back of my head so I have to get someone to help me.

    Just be ready to clean up, because hair will fly all over the place if you aren't careful.

  • Question on TV's

    Jump

  • What you are looking for is a monitor. A TV will be filled with features.

  • Which food gives you the best bowel movement?

    Jump

  • Chickpeas. They have so much fiber. And they taste awesome when prepared well.

  • After Google stopped JPEG-XL adoption in chromium, but Apple adopting it. Is there anything happening going forward?

    Jump

  • Support is currently being worked on for Firefox, in the form of a rust decoder. Once that happens, there might be a little more pressure for adding support to chrome. I have also seen discussion about a Japanese company working on hardware support for jxl.

    I would really like to see more support in open source software, especially libraries like opencv.

    Are most people who illegal street race young teenagers?

    Jump

  • I would expect most of the cars to be stolen

  • Steam Autumn Sale 2025 Has Begun

    Jump

  • I might pick up monster train and doom eternal. Yeah, I still haven't played doom eternal.

  • Travel back to the days of cable TV with Blippo+, a time-hopping FMV game about... I'm not entirely sure, actually

    Jump

  • That looks really interesting, but I'm just left wondering what the objective is, or what kind of gameplay is actually there.

  • Would-be City of Heroes successor, Ship of Heroes, decides to launch the MMO with a $45 price tag and a $15 monthly subscription and it's, er, going about as well as you'd expect

    Jump

  • A ship sounds a lot less exciting than a city.

    Is there a guide on how to install a minimalist version of Windows 11 or how to remove all of the MS junk?

    Jump

  • I started with Rufus as well, but then I just uninstalled things directly through Windows and went through the settings to disable everything I didn't want. Probably safer than using 3rd party applications to remove things. I also use Openshell to replace the start menu. If you change the time and currency settings during install, that apparently disabled some things as well. See here And if you don't want to set up a Microsoft account, just stay disconnected from Internet during install, it will let you just set up a local account.

  • spiced air-fried chick peas

    Jump

  • I love making air fried chick peas. I usually put lemon pepper seasoning on them, just because I have a lot of it that I need to use, but it tastes great.

  • What size of a PC game you are comfortable with?

    Jump

  • I feel like the deployment shouldn't be too difficult. I have the game Street Fighter 6 on steam, and there is an option in the steam menu for whether to download single player content or not. If you disable it, you can save about 20gb, and of course it is enabled by default. I feel like the exact same process could be used for the high end texture packs. Most users would just download everything by default, but if you are someone who cares about your disk space, you could just easily disable it. It would just be on the devs to implement it.

  • What size of a PC game you are comfortable with?

    Jump

  • My understanding is that the vast majority of space is dedicated to high resolution textures. I don't have a 4k monitor and I don't need ultra high fidelity textures. Why can't they just be an additional download rather than a required part?

    I think 50gb is a fairly reasonable max size for most games.

  • Firefox Finally Introducing Matroska / MKV Playback Support

    Jump

  • Well, it took them long enough. The container has been around for over 20 years now.

  • Would you retire at 30 and live frugally?

    Jump

  • You never know what the future holds. Much better to work now while you are in a good position to do so, than to be forced to work later on, when you have been out of the workforce for years.

  • How did you choose your occpuation for people who didn"t just follow thier passion

    Jump

  • Most people don't love their job.

  • Nissin or Maruchan? (Chicken Flavor)

    Jump

  • Maruchan for sure

  • YouTube secretly used AI to edit people's videos. The results could bend reality

    Jump

  • That would depend entirely on WHAT its doing. I have not personally seen any of these videos yet, but based on what was described in the article, I would imagine that a typical CPU would not be able to handle it.

    Jump

  • You are right that nvidia cards can do it for games using DLSS. Nvidia also has a version called RTX video that works for video. But are they could to be dedicating hardware for playback every single time a user requests to play a short? That is significantly different than just serving a file to the viewer. If they had all of these Nvidia cards laying around, they surely have better things that they could use them for. To be clear here, the ONLY thing I am taking issue with is a comment that it seems that youtube may be upscaling videos on the fly (as opposed to upscaling them once when they are uploaded, and then serving that file 1 million times). I'm simply saying that it makes a hell of a lot more sense any day of the week to upscale a file one time than to upscale it 1 million times.

    Jump

  • While it could theoretically be done on device, it would require the device to have dedicated hardware that is capable of doing the processing, so it would only work on a limited number of devices. It would be pretty easy to test this if a known modified video were available.
