About four months ago, I ditched my Steam Deck for Asus' ROG Ally. But with some distance, I'm going back to Valve's handheld. Here's why.

Yeah that's the most brazen part. They're more than happy to pull in a dozen set of fees, but cry when they have to clearly list them so people aren't taken advantage of. This is the type of rubbish that the "free market" produces and why there needs to be some level of government oversight.

Eventually it was bound to happen. Still sad to see mods getting removed to make way for more Spez friendly replacements

I think the end conclusion wasn't great. He said

It wouldn't matter if it dropped 20 degrees

It absolutely would matter. Just like how a 4090 costs an absurdly high amount but people will still buy it. For the right person getting 20 degrees knocked off might be worthwhile regardless of how expensive it is.

People's willingness to seize every opportunity and monetize everything that was once free and open is truly shocking. Every day when I read about another dogshit attempt to make the internet as a whole a worse place, I'm not even supprised anymore

Need the opposite costume, the overly eager sys admin.

  • wants to force password changes once a month for security
  • constantly changing security policies to reflect the flavor of the month
  • constantly sends out phishing emails tests, wonders why no one replies to any of his emails

Horrific article to read, old mate had to go to fires by himself and respond to emergencies from black people while all the white people hid. Terrible

What motherboards are you guys using for your high end CPUs? I stuck with a standard Z790 Gigabyte board for my 13900k. The main selling points I found when I was looking was that more expensive boards usually supported higher memory frequencies / timings and provided extra headers and M.2 slots.

I've got my system running 6400MHZ DDR5 memory and by the looks of it, once you go over 7k or beyond the gaming performance seems negligible?

What actual tangible benefits are the 500/600/700 dollar boards bringing?

Seen this sentiment that green bubbles = bad a few times online but never it's never come up for me. I assume this is a teen - early adult specific issue where the idea is mostly to be part of the group

About the same when you ask for a good GUI replacement for X and someone replies "just use the command line", like cheers for that men, not what I'm asking for.

I'm getting a sinking feeling about this

Looks like Daedalic Entertainment is getting shuttered because of how badly the Gollum game was received. Usually not keen on dog-piling on developers when they're down but it was truly an awful game

There's a heap of devs working on bug fixes and improvements to the kbin.social website. If you run into a bug or find something strange, it would be great if you can report it on codeberg.

With third party apps going away, I'm expecting an influx of new people who will join kbin.social over the next few weeks. The project has taken shape rapidly and it's exciting to see the progress that's been made.

I've been working through a range of UI/UX issues focusing on mobile but any reports, along with images or use cases are super handy to people looking at the issues list.

Anyone else excited for City Skylines 2? I'm pretty impressed with all the changes they've introduced, it should be a more dynamic experience this time around.

With the focus on scale, I'm keen to see how performance goes this time around. I remember in previous huge cities it could start to chug.

I'm assuming we'll get at least FSR / DLSS upscaling support this go around too?

The third party API changes come into effect tomorrow (1/7/2023) so now's a good time to either purge or edit your existing content.

There's still no guarantee that Reddit wont just revert your changes (which they've notably done to a few people so far), but at least editing your comments before you delete your account is one way you can let them know how dogshit their handling of this situation has been.

This thing was as easy as adding it to your bookmark bar on desktop, signing into old.reddit.com and pressing on it.

It's a shame to lose years of great posts and comments but with how poorly Reddit has engaged with the community over this, there's no point sticking around.

It looks like Google are pushing pretty hard on AdBlockers now. Looks like a pretty aggressive new UI from them.

I'm finding revanced for Android is still working well, but I've got no idea when that'll become less reliable

Anyone here been using the CableMod angled high power connector? Anyone had any issues with it on their their end? Finally picked it up today, it looks like most of the melting issues are still from it not being seated correctly

[-] AnonymousLlama@kbin.social 52 points 1 year ago

Kbin seems to be continually looking into updating things but I doubt accessibility / vision support is high on the priority list right now, the issues tracker is almost 300 long.

[-] AnonymousLlama@kbin.social 63 points 1 year ago

I liked the idea is having awards or little extras that you can award to posts you're keen on, but what I didn't like was that Reddit profited from it

Something like that here might actually be useful as the money could act as donations for the devs to pay for their time / server fees. At least in that way people are getting something small but contributing.
