Ps5 pro was released a few days ago. Otherwise why are we even talking about scalpers and availability?

[–] daq@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Sure, but you're comparing apples to oranges. If you personally play older or not gpu intensive games at medium settings, then you can absolutely buy a gpu once every 7-10 years and not be affected by any scalpers. NES emulators are pretty cheap right now :-) You can also get an Intel GPU for under MSRP.

Obviously a hyperbole, but PC gamers looking for latest and greatest were affected much worse than console gamers wanting the latest stuff.

Just the crypto hype alone made it nearly impossible to get a decent gpu for years.

Do you build your own gpus too? Between ML and chip shortage, PC builders were affected much worse than any console users.

Good choice of instance :-)

Two cars (~$50k each), two adult drivers, one accident in the last 7 years, no tickets = $453/mo. Fuck California and the weak cunt Newsom that can't get these greedy fuckers under control.

I read it and I think I understand why people are using it, but just to clarify your Google play example: you still can't use it without being signed into Google account, right? Is your concern what the app does while it's not running? Because it feels like they'll still collect the same amount of info once your sign in to install the apps.

Do you you try to use F-droid for most things?

Does anything related to money work on GOS? Bank apps, check deposits, credit card apps, nfc payments? Any other apps/features disabled by Google?

Seems like a huge sacrifice for perceived privacy improvement.

How is this significantly different from using vanilla Android without signing into any Google accounts?

Aren't most questions like this are simply looking at what approach you try and not a solution? They've been at it for years so they can easily tell if you're trying something that makes sense or something trivial even if they don't have a solution or even if there isn't one.

That's just demonstrably false. Lots of historical precedent for people losing property, access, etc due to lost or incorrectly filed documents, clerical errors, corruption and a billion other ways. None of this really affects digital assets.

[–] daq@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Nonsense argument. It is much easier to forge or steal a paper copy of a document that it is to do so with an equally well protected digital copy.

Vast majority of digital theft is done via social engineering and not through some exploit in the underlying technology.

I've been using M2 as a plex server so I'm really hoping Asahi devs shift focus from games to video transcoding, but either way the fact that they're making progress is great news.

Show me a screenshot of what your display settings look like please.

 

It shows up every time I dismiss or switch apps and displays over other stuff that might be more relevant. Any way to turn it off?

 

This sounds like a really cool feature if not to difficult to add. https://dubvee.org/post/1621850

 
# sudo btrfs fi df /mnt/disk3
Data, single: total=12.70TiB, used=12.27TiB
System, DUP: total=8.00MiB, used=1.34MiB
Metadata, DUP: total=15.00GiB, used=14.50GiB
GlobalReserve, single: total=512.00MiB, used=608.00KiB

# mkdir /mnt/disk3/tst
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘tst’: No space left on device

I suspect this is BTRFS balancing issue, but even BTRFS's own utility is indicating there's still SOME space left. Certainly should be enough to create a directory.

Any ideas?

Just in general BTRFS default options for creating new volumes seem to not work well for disks that I intend to fill completely immediately after formatting. Are there better options for this use case? I just use

# mkfs.btrfs /dev/sdd1

 

Thinking of getting a fully automatic espresso maker. Seems like machines with 2 hoppers are double the price.

I'm just curious what are some solutions people came up with for switching between decaf and regular beans for a family that regularly brews both kinds?

 

I'm on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. Latest NVidia proprietary drivers on 1080Ti. Proton 8-4 crashes faster than Expiremental, but both still consistently crash.

Everything was working perfectly until recent D4 update. Now game freezes after 1-2 minutes in game.

GPU VRAM is not exhausted. CPU is mostly idle. Plenty of RAM.

Doesn't seem to be caused by anything specific. Will freeze whether I'm in a fight or in a town.

Anyone else experienced similar issues? Not sure how to debug this, but I can't play anymore and it sucks.

 

I have a Dell laptop with Intel and Nvidia GPU and Sonnet 750 eGPU enclosure with AMD card. Monitor is connected via USB-C to laptop.

glxinfo correctly shows AMD GPU as renderer when I run

# DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer"
OpenGL renderer string: AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (gfx1100, LLVM 17.0.6, DRM 3.54, 6.6.9-1-default)

When I try to run steam or benchmark like Superposition though, they run using Intel card with terrible performance.

DRI_PRIME=1 ./Unigine_Superposition-1.1/bin/launcher

You can see in the screenshot that it shows computer RAM (64GB) and not GPU's VRAM (24GB)

This same setup works perfectly if I put NVidia GPU in the eGPU enclosure.

Any ideas? I tried connecting a DP cable directly from AMD GPU to monitor, but it works like crap with screen barely refreshing.

 

Sorry if this is a wrong community to ask these question since my system is only partially DIY, but does anyone have experience with EPS systems like EcoFlow Delta?

I'm trying to figure out exactly how it works when all 3 sources of power are available: battery, AC and solar. Is it able to use them in combination if solar doesn't provide 100% of demand?

And if anyone is using UPS units, how are you dealing with lack of ground? I'm thinking of daisy chaining UPS to EPS to avoid sensitive equipment from shutting down during failover, but I'm concerned that UPS will not like operating without ground.

When I try to login to my Lemmy instance, I type my username/password, then 2fa code prompt shows up and I enter it, and then I just get endless spinning wheel. It used to work at one point, but I'm not sure what changed. I updated both, client and server multiple times since it stopped working. I've also reset Connect data on my phone.

I can connect to my instance in browser and in another Lemmy client for desktop.

Lemmy spams so much shit into server logs, I can't find anything useful during connection attempt. Is there any way to troubleshoot this from client?

How can I figure out what it is waiting for?

Edit: Just wanted to update that if I filter Lemmy server logs by IP - I don't see a connection attempt from Connect client at all.

Thank you.
