“STEAL IT. Steal away. Steal and steal and steal some more and give it to all your friends.” - Trent Reznor, after record labels jacked up NIN album prices. Then later clarified the best quality rips were on Oink (rip 😢)

Hmm but what kind of software do these trains run on? Allow me to take a moment and explain how switching these operations to Linux could increase schedule reliability while minimizing expenses.

(/s, if needed… I hope your community grows!)

CaptDust,

No insights, but all the money and resources in the world couldn’t replicate a homemade customized gift of some kind. Probably end up with a lot of knitted scarves and hats lol.

I don’t agree, his techniques and format are still good and though expensive, the covert instrument sets are some of the finest tools I have. If the guy wants to make a buck and offer a one stop shop for the hobby I don’t see the problem.

I guess my only complaint with LPL is seemingly running out of challenging locks, which is more a fault of manufacturers.

Playing random characters can help. Picking someone I’m not familiar with for casual play gives me exposure to other styles and helps me become more rounded, while tipping the less experienced player a balanced playing field.

David Zaslav is the common denominator across all these examples, and now he’s in charge of Warner Bros…

“trash reality show that feature trash pickers sorting through trash”

Lmao. That’s painful.

CaptDust,

Warranty is hardly a concern at this point right? Any v1 is well outside the year.

Fair enough, I suppose there’s still some kicking around the supply lines but kinda sounds like you won the modding lotto lol. If you’re not modding though I’d be a bit upset because the revisions have nearly doubled battery life.

CaptDust,

It sometimes does.

Noting, this PSA is absolutely useful for older components - especially Intel, but anyone using something newer than Skylake (circa 2015) is probably already set up with intel-media-driver or the nv/amd video driver.

nvtop is a useful tool to monitor GPU activity and the decoder in use when a video plays, if you’re unsure

I really don’t see how this is any better, they are using the same peer to peer netcode they always have. Maybe the general quality of Internet has gone up, but there is nothing I can point to that Nintendo has fundamentally changed between previous free MP and NSO, except giving some ROMS and DLC occasionally. Smash bros is still a lag fest with wireless players, splatoon still delays collision detection, Mario kart still has weird rubber banding and desync… they just slapped a price tag on it.

    I think you’re hitting an issue with Asus firmware and the cirrus amp they used in their laptops. The root of the problem, as I understand, is Asus system firmware does not identify the audio card/amp properly. Technically the drivers are present in the kernel and can be remapped with workarounds (see the arch wiki), but I found them complicated and didn’t want to risk borking anything in the kernel or bootloader.

    I’m just getting old, hoping for the day Asus fixes their firmware and everything clicks together.

    Totally agree, it’s two different tests and use cases. Most people will run it how it comes out of the box and that’s probably more representative of the real world.

    I just think it’s not entirely fair to say “windows is 20% slower” when we have no idea which trash HP loaded it up with. If I managed an IT Dept and learned my $$$$ hardware lost 1/5 of it’s performance I’d certainly be pushing HP for solutions. Or maybe they’d prefer to take 20% off the price?

    While this is cool, but I am interested in a comparison with a fresh windows install. This article says it’s out of the box from HP, I wouldn’t be surprised if they have some dumb processes running, chunking performance… I’m confident linux would still outperform but this is quite an insane gap on display.

    I like pop_os a lot, it’s a high quality distro they’ve assembled. Even on fedora I’ll use the pop shell extension, good QOL upgrade for gnome. So, yes. Great for browsing.

    CaptDust,

    What is a furniture sponge?

    CaptDust,

    Counter point, Ubuntu specifically has so many old posts and answers that aren’t necessary in modern systems, deprecated, or straight up no longer correct. Also a lot of recommendations that can screw up a system in strange ways. I feel like many issues (ie. Bluetooth, USB, Wifi) are due to people stumbling on old posts with configs and tools that have changed and blindly applying them

    CaptDust,

    😵‍💫 the 3am tinkering, it calls to me 😵‍💫

    CaptDust,

    You can go to the wiki, or you can search random forums and stack overflow like normal when things go sideways 🤷‍♂️

    CaptDust,

    misogyny is a skill issue

    Always has been, weak men can’t stand women outpacing them, this is not limited to gaming but basically anything and everything.

    CaptDust,

    Maybe try the radio scanner ahem spirit box?

    CaptDust,

    It’s so cold bro do you feel that, right here, it’s so cold. Just me? Nah. bro. it’s cold, colder than anything cold. That’s incredible what power

    CaptDust,

    I kind of like the recommendations that populate aligned with my sub interests, basically
