  • I've always liked some of the stuff that Kenney produces:

    https://www.kenney.nl/

    Might be some inspiration there

  • About the same for me, but I saw one about 3 weeks ago. I was so excited because it had been so long, no one else seemed to care as much.

  • Can't keep everyone happy with everything all the time. Its up to the rest of the team to make people feel comfortable choosing between the two uniform types. If they don't, then thats a shitty team.

  • Battle for Wesnoth. Really fun turn based strategy game - https://www.wesnoth.org/

    Its free and open source. They have it on steam now as well.

  • Not sure about this, but some apps do cause additional battery drain if something fails to work. For example, an app is pinging a hostname to determine if its online, if it succeeds it waits 5 minutes before doing it again, if it fails, it tries again in 30 seconds. A pretty rough example, but this is just to say that its entirely possible.

  • I was so disappointed with Dune: Awakening. I should have listened to my gut, because I knew it wasn't going to bring anything new (enough) to the survival formula. I bought when it first came out, I've only played it for like 3 hours total.

  • Yea but have you been scrombled?

  • I understand. The 3070ti is still a good card - I personally think you might be disappointed getting an equivalent AMD card because its no guarantee to solve your problems or improve performance.

    Again this is all my personal opinion etc, weigh up your pros and cons. Prices can vary a lot in different regions. You might be able to snatch up a bargain.

  • Yea, I was pretty disappointed with it as I really wanted to move to AMD. I'm glad it's going well this time around though.

  • No, it wasn't a driver clash. I tried a lot of things including downloading the pro drivers that were also recommended on trying. At the time, there was a problem with AMD cards and CryEngine games performing badly.

  • Switching might not fix your issues, and might just be swapping for other issues.

    Ive been running Nvidia with Linux for over 10 years and its improved significantly over that time. Around the time the 30xx series came out I was looking to upgrade from my 1080ti - I wanted to switch to AMD (because I heard the drivers are better) I got a 6900XT and had heaps of problems and even worse performance in some games than my 1080ti. I ended up returning it and got a 3070ti instead, and I had no problems and performance was great.

    About a month ago I wanted to upgrade my 3070ti and give AMD another shot with a 9070XT - its been absolutely flawless this time around.

    All this is to say there are no guarantees going AMD will solve your problems, but I would consider going an AMD 9070 series instead - particularly since their FSR Redstone thing only applies to the latest cards

  • Most people with jobs can't afford to just quit. Also the job market at the moment is insane.

  • Ohh, maybe a little bit of pud

  • No, but you'll need to descale it pretty regularly if you have hard water. They start off looking nice, but end up looking trash after a while.

  • When I upgraded my GPU last I tried for the first time since ATI was a thing to leave nvidia and go AMD. I tried to get a 6900XT but just had endless issues with drivers, which I was surprised about because if you believe a majority of Linux users it should have been flawless - it was not. I had endless issues with drivers and games running badly. I caved and returned it for a 3070ti - trust me I tried a lot of things.

    Anyway, I've since tried AMD again and upgraded to a 9070XT and the transition this time has been absolutely flawless, even keeping the same install (CachyOS has a guide to swap from nvidia to AMD).

    This is all to say, don't believe the hype around AMD but at least give it a try and don't feel too bad if it doesn't work out for you. Ultimately both nvidia and AMD have been improving significantly over the years

  • WHY???

  • Bestagons, Roll out!

    wait...

  • Yea I wouldn't be too concerned with trying just because you have an Nvidia GPU, I've been running it for years and haven't had any show stoppers. Now is probably the best time to give it a go.

  • Accenture... There's your answer. Absolute scumbag company. KPMG, DXC.. All those massive companies run huge con jobs on any of those Government contracts. Wouldnt be surprised if they claimed they had 20 people working on it, but it was only 2 full timers.
