Teamspeak 3 is ancient, but works.

However there is a new version of Teamspeak (TS5) which is much closer to Discord and looks much nicer. You could give that a try

No One Is Buying AMD Zen 5 CPUs, So What's Going On? in c/technology@lemmy.world

I have a 5900x and honestly don't see any need for an upgrade anytime soon.

A new CPU would maybe give me like 10 fps more in games, but a new GPU would do more. And I don't think the CPU will be a bottle neck in the next few years

AMD addresses Sinkclose vulnerability but older processors left unattended in c/cybersecurity@sh.itjust.works

Afaik you need kernel access to use this vulnerability. It still sucks, but having malware with kernel access sucks either way. So lets just hope that our favorite kernel anti-cheats never get compromised.

I have been using Affinity Photo for a couple of years now. Not in a professional way, just for some small personal things. Before buying Affinity Photo I used PS for the same purposes for a few years.

I don't see me going back to PS, since Affinity has everything I need. Sadly, I don't remember specifics, but a few things work a bit different in Affinity, but the workflow is quite similar.

Note that I am not using the latest version, so things might have changed.

I have been using Kagi as an alternative search engine for over a month now and can't see me going back to Google anytime soon. Googles results are just full of adverts and garbage.

Are there any good casual/low-stress mobile games that aren't filled with microtransactions? in c/games@lemmy.world

I really like Usagi Shima. There is not much gameplay, but it's a nice game to just relax for a few minutes. Also "Really Bad Chess" is a nice twist on chess. :D
