  • There's no way in hell we have the resolution to see continents in another star system.

  • An upcoming California law requires operating system providers to enforce basic mandatory age verification

    Jump

  • Linux is the most widely used OS in the world, if you include servers.

    If servers' OSes can't be legally used in California anymore, that would be funny.

  • Linux distributions should react by asking users to confirm they're not in California. They'll backpedal fast.

  • He's only 66?! Damn, he looks 80.

  • MX Anywhere 3 middle click unreliable

    Jump

  • Those suspended magnetic mouse wheels could be different in that way. How could I tell for sure? Without disassembling the mouse and almost certainly breaking it in the process because I'm extremely incompetent with my hands, I mean.

  • What kind of nonstick coating? Surely not Teflon?

  • Do you have any ideas on how to attract people from centralized platforms to such as lemmy?

    Jump

  • Well there's a focus on American events, American billionaires, and the distinctly American flavour of extreme policing

  • A lot of people are against it because they see it as the first step towards evil, but I still think we should have some sort of recommendation algorithm. New content discovery on Lemmy is way too manual for normies like me.

    The sign-up process should be streamlined. It's really intimidating to have to choose an instance when you don't even understand what the heck that is. And then there's the manual account validation. I'm not sure what the solution is but we might want to find one.

    And we need to do something about the extremists. They have a right to exist, but the abnormally high prevalence of American-coded communist/anarcho-communist content that just casually talks about executing the rich and the like is weird and intimidating even to me, a decidedly left-wing person. Americans, who are famously doubtful of communism, probably run away from the platform seeing that. And as for non-Americans... Well the proportion of content that's specifically about American politics is even higher than on Reddit, which is saying something.

  • FreeSync not working in Clair Obscur?

    Jump

  • Huh. Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a try the next time I play.

  • FreeSync not working in Clair Obscur?

    Jump

  • There's no option named variable refresh rate. But there is one called Adaptive sync. It's set to Always.

    If VRR can't work in borderless windowed mode, I guess I'll have to give up on it for this game. Because I get distracting frame drops without Frame Gen. A bit unfortunate I'd have performance compromises with my brand new graphics card, but I heard this is normal for UE5 games.

  • Denominator, go Mercator

    Jump

  • Huh. I was convinced there was a bigger difference.

  • Doesn't that kinda make Canada look smaller than the US?

  • FreeSync not working in Clair Obscur?

    Jump

  • Wait, so that means FreeSync would NOT have worked, since it doesn't now?

  • FreeSync not working in Clair Obscur?

    Jump

  • Good to know. Though to be honest, probably because it's 1. a turn-based game, 2. one I'm playing on a wireless controller, I'm not noticing it.

    So I guess even V-Sync is fine for this game. But it's this were a more latency-sensitive game, it might've been annoying.

    What should I have done then?

    Would exclusive full screen have been fine?

  • Ubisoft has cancelled 6 games, including the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake | VGC

    Jump

  • More focus on open-world titles and games as a service? Every time I think they've hit the bottom, they manage to dig deeper.

  • Huh?

    Jump

  • Oh, you don't need the music to need to shout. The high ceiling achieves that by itself. Echo, space to fill, or something. Not to knowledgeable about acoustics.

    I really wish they made restaurants with low ceilings. You take the tallest people who are likely to come, you add maybe 30 cm, and that's more than high enough, right? No, they've gotta have ceilings so high they could genuinely fit two floors in the one they have. It's a waste of space, too.

  • When/how frequently do you replace your phone with a new one?

    Jump

  • Generally I wait until it dies. My current one is testing my patience at 3 years old while I've disliked it since the start, but the cost of a new one is sobering enough to let me suck it up.

    My first phone died under a bus after 4 years, my second one stopped getting security updates after 2 or 3 years and was starting to get seriously slow, so that one I sold, my third one took 5 years to die to repeated water exposure... And this is my fifth one.
