I know the first thing everyone will say is to use an AMD GPU. Agreed, sounds good (NVIDIA is sucky on my current machine). I have no clue which ones to start looking in to however....
Both. One downside seems to be the required pressure necessary when mounting. Noise normalized performance and overall value is great though. The phantom spirit is a slightly upgraded version with one more heat pipe compared to PA120SE
I’ve personally used webp for when I need lossy compression with alpha channel. What good alternatives are there? Png is not lossy and jpeg does not support alpha. Is JXL better than WebP? AVIF? JPEG2000?
I’ve been meaning to get one to use as a fixed email, even if I change the underlying email provider. Not able to select a domain name though ¯_(ツ)_/¯ naming is always the hardest part
I need to buy one for an old TV i have. I have plex at home and i use also Stremio + real Debrid. If the device offers a controller it would be nice. Thanks!
What about Nokia 8010 or RockTek G2? Been looking at one of these as a jellyfin client, but also retain the possibility of using streaming apps. Otherwise I’d probably throw kodi on a intel N100 based box (some of these can be had fairly cheap)
I dont get it to be honest. The plastic back on the 4a is perfectly fine. I have a cover anyway, who cares how it looks. I don’t think it’s more durable either? Why are plastic ones getting heavier though?
I think it was a mistake to remove hardware video encoding. Even the hw encoder for H264 1080p 30fps was better than no encoder. Apparently they think sw encoding can replace it…yeah… the cpu is more powerful, but not that much more. I think intels N100 processors will be more competitive for applications involving video/webcam

Any mod packs or whatever to recommend? Played it once when it came out using a sneak + bow build (didn’t know it was OP when I started though). Haven’t checked out rhe DLC or anything, so I want to revisit it once I upgrade my potato rig later this year
Well, my friend, he’s kinda poor he can’t afford some books and some streaming services, so he pirates. He pirate books, audiobook and videos and other stuff. Sometimes he buys books he likes a lot out of loyalty to the author (yeah, I don’t understand it either), he likes to read physical books, but yeah, if he hates the...
Trying to find something to watch on Netflix was exhausting. Basically looking up every show on the mobile for imdb rating / rotten score etc to see if its worthwhile. I don’t watch that much TV, so I’m not going to binge any crappy show or movie
Man, what an echo chamber of anti-corporation and anti-copyright sentiments. I pirate myself, because the services for tv/movies are not convenient, but I don’t delude myself into thinking it’s somehow justified. If I could get any movie or series on demand like spotify I wouldn’t pirate (if I could afford it). I fail to see how anything else would be ethical to the creators of the content.
Good point on not pirating and promoting the alternatives. Didn’t occur to me that a user pirating is one less user for competing products or free software
So after some research I splurged for a Demeyere Proline 7-ply frying pan. Unfortunately, upon trying it with my induction stove it gave an error message saying that the pan was incompatible. My internet research tells me that it could be due to the copper core of the Demeyre causing a high current draw. Another reason could be...
An Apple "iPhone16,1" was put through the Geekbench 6.2 gauntlet earlier this week—according to database info this pre-release sample was running a build of iOS 17.0 (currently in preview) and its logic board goes under the "D83AP" moniker. It is interesting to see a 16-series unit hitting the test phase only a day after the...
Use godot then, or write your own engine. If the licensing permits retroactive changes to old games, I’d migrate away from unity asap. Sooner or later they want a bigger piece of the pie

I believe I read somewhere that they have abandoned the desktop app on Linux. Yep:
!In September 2022, Microsoft announced that they’d be retiring their Linux Teams client in December 2022 in favour of a new “Progressive Web Application” (PWA) version of Teams.!<
Gah, this is the reason I havent set up nextcloud. Cant tweak the all in one docker thing to my needs, and a manual install cant easily be updated. Too much hassle when I just want to use nextcloud memories
