Neighbor's wild grape nearly destroyed my bottle brush trees. Now I have to spend 30 minutes every weekend cleaning that shit off my trees. Are other creeping plants not that destructive to trees?

I have 7 various PebbleBees and they work great. Just recently used one to make sure my checked bag did not get lost and was able to track it at every step.

Yes, but which OS is still running glibc < 2.31?

Super relevant argument that ccp allows some companies to grow before they take over. And yes, obviously nobody would do business in China if they didn't share the profits. Hopefully nobody will ever do business again with a shithole like russia.

Except Nvidia is the third largest company in the world with a ton of existing IP that they would effectively be handing over to a country that has a history of stealing IP without any repercussions and had the resources to take advantage of that IP and make Nvidia irrelevant.

Right, for profit companies famously have a history of just handing themselves over to totalitarian regimes.

China has no successful companies that aren't approved, controlled and often subsidized by the party.

Bigger problem than tmsc is that China will just "legitimately" steal all IP and replace them with another company within a year. Moving to China is insane if you don't plan to bend over for the party.

They're probably not on staff and hiring them externally just got much more expensive and complicated.

That's what I mean. I'm happy to cover that. Bunch of small retailers have a notice that there's a 3% surcharge for CC transactions. Well worth it for me.

Tourism is pretty much the only reason some countries are still around. Not asking for preferential treatment - just don't be an asshole to someone that's there to respectfully explore your culture or enjoy your weather.

I don't mind covering CC fees to avoid the hassle/danger of cash when I'm traveling and in general tbh.

I am American. Naturalized almost 30 years ago. Proud to be one while also proud to be in a country where I can safely say I'm anti orange cunt and everything his supporters stand for.

My comment on cash was in support of what was said above. I've traveled a lot to my birth country of Ukraine before credit cards were a thing there and never had any issues with local currency or expected them to accept dollars.

I've also been all over Canada and paid with whatever retailer accepts if I wanted to do business there.

I'm also happy to cover CC fees for small retailers because I personally prefer to not deal with cash especially when I travel.

I struggle to imagine any reason to use cash unless you're a drug dealer. CCs will convert for you.

 

It shows up every time I dismiss or switch apps and displays over other stuff that might be more relevant. Any way to turn it off?

 

This sounds like a really cool feature if not to difficult to add. https://dubvee.org/post/1621850

 
# sudo btrfs fi df /mnt/disk3
Data, single: total=12.70TiB, used=12.27TiB
System, DUP: total=8.00MiB, used=1.34MiB
Metadata, DUP: total=15.00GiB, used=14.50GiB
GlobalReserve, single: total=512.00MiB, used=608.00KiB

# mkdir /mnt/disk3/tst
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘tst’: No space left on device

I suspect this is BTRFS balancing issue, but even BTRFS's own utility is indicating there's still SOME space left. Certainly should be enough to create a directory.

Any ideas?

Just in general BTRFS default options for creating new volumes seem to not work well for disks that I intend to fill completely immediately after formatting. Are there better options for this use case? I just use

# mkfs.btrfs /dev/sdd1

 

Thinking of getting a fully automatic espresso maker. Seems like machines with 2 hoppers are double the price.

I'm just curious what are some solutions people came up with for switching between decaf and regular beans for a family that regularly brews both kinds?

 

I'm on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. Latest NVidia proprietary drivers on 1080Ti. Proton 8-4 crashes faster than Expiremental, but both still consistently crash.

Everything was working perfectly until recent D4 update. Now game freezes after 1-2 minutes in game.

GPU VRAM is not exhausted. CPU is mostly idle. Plenty of RAM.

Doesn't seem to be caused by anything specific. Will freeze whether I'm in a fight or in a town.

Anyone else experienced similar issues? Not sure how to debug this, but I can't play anymore and it sucks.

 

I have a Dell laptop with Intel and Nvidia GPU and Sonnet 750 eGPU enclosure with AMD card. Monitor is connected via USB-C to laptop.

glxinfo correctly shows AMD GPU as renderer when I run

# DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer"
OpenGL renderer string: AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (gfx1100, LLVM 17.0.6, DRM 3.54, 6.6.9-1-default)

When I try to run steam or benchmark like Superposition though, they run using Intel card with terrible performance.

DRI_PRIME=1 ./Unigine_Superposition-1.1/bin/launcher

You can see in the screenshot that it shows computer RAM (64GB) and not GPU's VRAM (24GB)

This same setup works perfectly if I put NVidia GPU in the eGPU enclosure.

Any ideas? I tried connecting a DP cable directly from AMD GPU to monitor, but it works like crap with screen barely refreshing.

 

I ordered 6800 during BF promos for ~$385. It is taking its sweet time to arrive so I saw a deal on 7800XT for ~$489. Wondering if it is worth spending another $100. All prices above are including taxes and discounts I can get.

I plan on playing mostly Diablo IV in 4K. Maybe some DOTA.

I'm playing on Linux using an eGPU enclosure /w i7-1165.

D4 currently runs OK using loaner 1080Ti, but occasionally struggles in busy scenes.

I'm also considering cancelling 6800 order and waiting until Jan/Feb when prices might come down due to Super variants getting released.

 

Sorry if this is a wrong community to ask these question since my system is only partially DIY, but does anyone have experience with EPS systems like EcoFlow Delta?

I'm trying to figure out exactly how it works when all 3 sources of power are available: battery, AC and solar. Is it able to use them in combination if solar doesn't provide 100% of demand?

And if anyone is using UPS units, how are you dealing with lack of ground? I'm thinking of daisy chaining UPS to EPS to avoid sensitive equipment from shutting down during failover, but I'm concerned that UPS will not like operating without ground.

When I try to login to my Lemmy instance, I type my username/password, then 2fa code prompt shows up and I enter it, and then I just get endless spinning wheel. It used to work at one point, but I'm not sure what changed. I updated both, client and server multiple times since it stopped working. I've also reset Connect data on my phone.

I can connect to my instance in browser and in another Lemmy client for desktop.

Lemmy spams so much shit into server logs, I can't find anything useful during connection attempt. Is there any way to troubleshoot this from client?

How can I figure out what it is waiting for?

Edit: Just wanted to update that if I filter Lemmy server logs by IP - I don't see a connection attempt from Connect client at all.

Thank you.
