I fucking love it. Gen Z slang is so lighthearted and fun.

You don’t play games or watch movies on your PC? Not even YouTube?

Why?

You seriously don’t know what HDR is? Really? Then we have nothing further to discuss.

If you don’t have a motherboard with a TPM in it by now, then you’re way overdue for an upgrade anyway.

They’re right though. 8.1 had the best of both 7 and 10, with none of the bloat. Only reason why I stopped using it was because I was forced to because literally no one supported it. Which is a damn shame cause it was considerably better than 7. Just got a bad rep because of 8.0.

Windows 11 is great with some tweaks and has by-far the best HDR implementation of any OS, bar none. I’m getting so sick and tired of people who don’t even use it hating on it constantly. Y’all have done this with every new Windows release except 7 and 98SE. Win11 is a great companion to Arch. Get over yourselves already.

Good god they’re such fucking losers.

Are you trying to make everyone hate you, Nintendo? Give it up already.

Anything made before ~2015. You have a lot of great cars to choose from.

Furthermore: Slashdot still exists? And it still has an active community in the comments!?

Lemmy alone hasn’t been enough to replace reddit for me; I should see if I still remember my old password…

I thought this article was going to be about the microphone that comes included with aftermarket radios. I had no idea that dedicated cigarette lighter mics were a thing. No wonder why they’re shutting it down. Between the mic(s) on your phone and the mic that came with your stereo, it’s a twice redundant product. Why did it even exist to begin with? Who is this for? Someone who doesn’t own an aftermarket radio or a car made in the past decade, who also doesn’t have a phone but somehow has access to Android Auto? What were they thinking? Why would anyone buy this?

What I’ve learned from this whole fiasco after owning a problem-free 4090 for over 2 years:

1. Don’t use 3rd party connectors, and don’t use the squid adapter in the box. Use the 12VHPR cable that came with your PSU or GPU. If your PSU doesn’t have a 12VHPR connection, get one that does.
2. Don’t bend the cable near the connection. Make sure your case is actually big enough to avoid bending.
3. Make sure it’s actually plugged in all the way. If you didn’t hear a click, it’s not plugged in all the way.
4. Don’t keep disconnecting the cable to check for burns. The connection is weak and designed to fail after only a handful of disconnect/reconnects. If you followed the 3 steps above perfectly, you have nothing to worry about.

That said, I’m skipping this GPU generation (and most likely the next one as well). Hopefully in 2-4 years AMD or Intel will be on more level grounds with nVidia so that I can finally stop giving them money just to have good ray tracing performance.

I just installed it and was immediately annoyed by the auto-scrolling feature being turned on by default. Is that really how TikTok works? How does anyone put up with this shit?

The second

I don’t understand this game. It just looks like shitty video poker with joker cards involved for some reason. Why are there so many joker cards?

Can we please have the opposite list, next? The only reason I’m here is for politics, news, memes, and tech.

The core is still hot. If we bury ourselves deep underground, there is a chance the humanity could survive for thousands of years without a sun. If not humanity, then some sort of life will survive long enough for future archeologists to find it millions of years later.

But don’t quite me on this; I’m simply reciting from memory something I read in National Geographic or a similar publication 10-20 years ago. IDK how true this actually is.

That’s nothing; my Ryzen 7000 machine uses 150w at idle. Modern high-end desktops draw a lot of power.

My X670E system also uses a shitload of power. Literally 150w at idle, no matter what I do. Tried disabling every unnecessary feature in the BIOS and enabling all the energy efficient settings I can find, to no avail. Drives me nuts.

Just checked and all these supposedly “banned” subs are up and running.
