  • According to the laws of physics, you can't. Light in fiber optics does not travel instantaneously to your location. The farther away the server is, the greater the latency will be.

    The only way to reduce latency is to choose a service with servers closest to your location.

  • What about to a PO Box if they're available where you live?

  • These small variations tend to happen because the data is not perfect. The important thing is to see how it trends over time. When we clean up the data to reduce the noise of the ups and downs, we see that it's trending up.

  • Exactly. For me, it's quality vs quantity.

  • It's all Visual Basic compatibility. Many companies use macros and programs written in Visual Basic inside Excel. As long as they continue using Visual Basic, they will continue using Excel.

  • Welcome!

  • It is a federation of multiple instances with one goal in mind: to liberate human interaction from gamification and algorithm manipulation that makes you addicted to the platform, allowing them to brainwash you with targeted ads.

    As for Lemmy/Piefed, the goal is to liberate and free human speech without profiting from it or being manipulated by algorithms and features like Reddit's karma system.

  • It's about incremental improvements. Proton: game computability and performance. kernel: video card drivers optimization.

  • As this is version 3.0.0, I'll wait a bit before upgrading.

  • No, it's not beneficial. The difference between consoles and PCs is that PCs have an open infrastructure, which lets you back up your data to any medium or service you want.

    For example, if Steam goes out of business and doesn't release the DRMs, they will easily be cracked. You cannot say the same for consoles.

  • Instead of increasing monthly active users at all costs, the company aims to monetize existing users with recurring revenue, likely from subscriptions and DLC. Furthermore, Nishino stated that PlayStation aims to provide a "seamless" experience that expands beyond the living room, sparking renewed rumors of a portable console.

    So, owning a Steam Machine will be beneficial in the long run because of the frequent sales and realistic gaming prices. Got it!

  • Perhaps I'll be controversial, but it might be a good thing. Here in Ottawa, projects are debated for ages, and the rural councilors simply do not want to do what's best for the urban area. Maybe this power expansion will speed up project development.

  • Teamsters made a great choice by endorsing Trump! /s

  • Ok. If ever you want to try Bazzite, here's the download link: https://bazzite.gg/#image-picker

    Then choose: Desktop > Nvidia RTX Series > KDE > Traditional Desktop.

  • Have you decided on Mint yet? If not, the Bazzite distro will be easy to use. All you need to do is download the Nvidia image and install it. It will work right away. Steam and the Nvidia drivers are already installed and configured. No configuration is needed.
