Lol. I think there is one for Republican and Democrat though. Which is funny. Or maybe it's like conservative or something. I don't know. There are so many TLDs now, it's crazy.

I had a very similar PC. I think maybe slightly better. I ended up upgrading because the CPU was becoming more and more of a bottleneck. The roar was Elden Ring. The fps wouldn't go past about 20. Also some gaves are now being compiled against x64 v3 instructions (like Hell Divers 2 and Death Stranding) which there's literally no way of running on an old CPU since it doesn't have the instructions for it.

Yeah it definitely does read like incel propaganda with the rest in there.

Wow, I didn't know fascists wanted to protect women! They're such allies! /s (hopefully obvious)

Ugh, yes. I worked in a deli and they never made me use them for a few weeks (which is terrifying in hindsight). So trying to relearn everything was a pain. I'd just developed muscle memory.

Awww, I thought you also made the prayer 14 words. Would've really nailed the point home.

The amount of people who think that scientists don't understand how bees fly is evidence that most people don't have this world view. As if someone would see a bee flying, not only having been around for eons, but a very common creature most people are familiar with, would just throw their hands up and say "WHOA! THIS VIOLATES ALL THE LAWS OF PHYSICS! THIS SHOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE!"

Go tell the authors of that article then, I very clearly said I was only using it as an example.of what I meant by fixing it with macros and not saying it's a solution I've looked into. ๐Ÿ™„

The one time I tried to manually install arch on a VM years and years ago it didn't work and I wrote Arch off. Guess what I'm running now? Well, Cachy, but lol. It's Arch. And guess what? It's got a simplified install process.

He specifically claims to be a science guy. Not a scientist.

BILL! BILL! BILL! BILL!

I think people have a hard time wrapping their heads around it because it's very rare to have this sort of problem in the real world. Typically you have a specific size container and need to arrange things in it. You usually don't get to pick an arbitrary size container or area for storage. Even if you for something like shipping, you'd probably want to break this into a 4x4 and a separate single box to better fit with other things being shipped as well. Or if it is storage you'd want to be able to see the sides or tops. Plus you have 3 dimensions to work with on the real world.

 

I noticed a repository's .gitattributes entry for *.csv used text eol=crlf so I investigated and found this.

 

It only shows Drive (for each account), Bug Reports (?) and System Traces (?). Of course, I just restarted my phone to see if it fixed it. It did, but as soon as I try a second time it's gone again.

I mention Discord but I'm pretty sure this file picker screen is not directly associated with Discord.

Update: This is affecting a friend of mine as well in the same way from the same time. Haven't determined if it's just Discord yet.

 

Sorry, this is a little embarrassing lol. But my notification bar with the clock and battery don't show in Jerboa any more. Is this some full screen option in the app I've accidentally turned on or something in Android itself I've enabled for this app?

Thanks!

 

I just never thought I'd hear GPL software get such a huge shout-out. It was literally the second thing said during the acceptance speech for Flow (best animated picture).

Also, Anora is a story involving sex workers and during two different acceptance speeches (best original screenplay and best picture) they thanks sex workers for sharing their stories with them.

Wasn't really sure where else to post this. I just thought it was pretty cool. There's always a bit of pandering in speeches (and it's not necessarily always bad), but libre software and sex workers were two things I wouldn't have guessed would get mentions. It was exciting!

 

There are times I'd like to get a measurement of a room's layout. I know there are some apps that do this, but a lot are just full of premium pay wall stuff.

I'm just trying to get the dimensions of my office (it is an odd shape) so I can okay around with potential furniture layouts.

 

I'm interested in setting up something to act as a file server. Think of it as "the cloud" but local. I've never built (or bought) something specifically for this, so it's a big foreign to me.

I think really all I would want is something that can store a lot of TB of data easily. It doesn't need to be fast. It doesn't need to be able to stream media anywhere. It really only needs to be able to act as an SFTP server, maybe run sync thing (new to that), and maybe act as a NAS. My gut feeling is something like 10+ TB might be a good amount to start. Something that won't fill up quick and that I can put big things in (like a full system image of another computer) without concern.

What would be a good way to go about this? Building a computer like normal but getting very cheap stuff? Getting something pre built or used (like surplus office stuff)? I'm just not really sure where to begin.

 

When talking about inflation there are two main types. I usually call them treasury and CPI inflation, but I don't necessarily know if those are widely used terms. By treasury inflation I refer to the total supply of money, like the inverse of federal interest rates basically. By CPI inflation I mean the change of the consumer price index over time. Both are useful, but depending on the context one may be more useful than the other.

 
 

For me it isn't working. Single player works fine. If Crossplay is ON I can see other games on the world map, but time out when joining the lobby. When I disable Crossplay I see none at all. (Yes, this is the opposite of what you might guess based on other issues people have mentioned where disabling Crossplay fixed it.)

Update: I switched to Proton 9 from the Cachy version and it works!

Powering my GPU and rails (programming.dev)
submitted 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) by JackbyDev@programming.dev to c/buildapc@lemmy.world
 

This will likely have some technical inaccuracies because I've never dealt with something this specific with PSUs. I have two slots for PCIe. I have a 3070 ti which has two 8 pin connectors. Each of this PSU's cords for the PCIe slots (minus that mysterious 600W one which I think is not for anything I'm doing due to the size) goes from the 12 pin on the PSU to two separate 8 pin connectors (well, 6 with the optional 2).

My gut feeling is to just plug a single cord from the PCIe slots I to the two slots on my GPU. But I'm wondering about what would happen if I plugged two cords into the PCIe slots separately and then put a single connector into the GPU from each. Would that be better/worse/the same/catastrophic?

I'm wondering if it has something to do with dividing the current among the different rails in the PSU or something? It has a little jumper to enable "overclocking" which does something like combining the rails, but I'd rather not fool with that. And it also might be totally unrelated to the other question. The jumper is, of course, just out of view of the pic, but it's also not really relevant.

Edit: I went with one and it's working fine.

 

Sorry for the horrible picture. It's hard enough to see with my eyes, let alone get a pic.

 

I'm not sure if this is a weird bug with the search or there's something weird in the database. It's also odd that they show different subscriber counts. Both link to !til@lemmy.world.

Edit: This is related to a known problem as Ategon mentioned. Disregard! :)
