mbfalzar , 9 days ago to linuxmemes in That is an act of cruelty towards the poor pokémon

A month ago as of tomorrow I got fed up with Windows and googled "gaming Linux", picked Garuda because it was near the top result and I like the FFXIV Garuda, was wiping my Windows drive within fifteen minutes of deciding I was done, and have been gaming with my 3080 since. Haven't touched X11 because Garuda defaults to Wayland and I don't even know the difference between them, and so far everything has just worked

I'd be really impressed if anyone still gamed on ATI.

I'm not that guy but yes and Nvidia

mbfalzar , 24 days ago to Technology in Move over, Ford and Chevy: Kei trucks are pulling up as customers opt for smaller, cheaper vehicles

Kei vehicles are exempt from most Japanese safety standards, because they're meant for city driving with max speeds of 40-60 kph and everyone driving them knows and acknowledges that you're just fucked if you get into an accident at speeds higher than that (and not doing great even at 40kph). It's an explicit trade of safety for lower cost

That's a bit harsh

You don't even need to read the article, just the summary already on lemmy

mbfalzar , 25 days ago to Selfhosted in NIC goes dark when Proxmox kernel loads after GPU install (works again if GPU removed)

There's generally one or two slots connected directly to the CPU running in x16 or x8 if there's two and both are connected, 4 lanes linking the CPU to the chipset, and the rest of the slots connect to the chipset and share that same x4 link. If your cpu has 24 lanes (Ryzen do/did a few years ago, Intel might but didn't a few years ago), the remaining 4 lanes usually go to an NVMe slot

I actually like the taste of pure cranberry juice, but it's too expensive to buy just for drinking so I mostly end up drinking half the bottle while I cook holiday meals after I've started the cranberry sauce

https://www.gog.com/forum/general/drm_on_gog_list_of_singleplayer_games_with_drm/page1

This is a pretty maintained list, and even if I disagree with the inclusion of some things because all you're missing is cosmetics, it is pretty easy to argue that "complete game offline" should include all content of that game, so I'm not gonna start a fight about it

mbfalzar , 1 month ago to Privacy in Coming to terms with no longer having privacy and control over my technology

But if you buy from GOG, make sure it doesn't have DRM, because GOG has been selling a few games that have DRM for a few years now

Apologies if that sounded like an admonishment of you lol, 2015 definitely seems like 20 years ago and I'd probably just say 10 at this point too

mbfalzar , 1 month ago to homelab in Teachings from years of HomeLab

Pi-hole first commit June 8, 2014 (first public release June 2015) and Pi 2 released in February 2015, so not quite 10 years on either

mbfalzar , 2 months ago (edited 2 months ago) to Technology in Innovation or Overreach? UH Research Casts blame on OceanGate's Submersible Design says: Low quality carbon fibre lead to the accident

I mean, using a controller in and of itself is not suspect, but the model they used is the cheapest one you can get with a recognizable name and is known for being unreliable, which is absolutely a suspect decision to make when it's the only method of control

mbfalzar , 2 months ago to Technology in Windows 10 reaches 70% market share as Windows 11 keeps declining

My main monitor is a 27 inch so the task bar is only like 23 inches, but the amount of stuff I have open at any given time has my taskbar 2/3 of the way across my screen. That said, I've had mine at the top of the screen ever since my iMac G3 and Windows 11 doesn't allow that either

Windows 10 definitely has but they don't come back once you delete them, which is garbage but less garbage

mbfalzar , 2 months ago to Selfhosted in Nextcloud Hub 8 is now available

For recipe tracking and "what to buy" I've actually had good success with https://grocy.info/

Has really cut down on buying things to use only to get home and find out I already had half of it and forgot
