Same shit happens on YouTube when commenting, so annoying

I believe I've seen them announce that already, so, yeah

Not really an option considering it's even more locked down.

Hope Valve comes up with something eventually, after all they've been getting into x86 emulation for mobile ARM chips lately. Granted, it was for VR, but still.

I'd wait for Valve Frame to come out.

It's supposed to be around the price of Index, hopefully less expensive.

Primarily because of Meta's track record of breaking their headsets with software updates, it's also going to be significantly lighter at the front, which is important. And will have eye tracking with foveated streaming.

For the last month, every time I tried to jump into VR I had a bug that prevented me from using the headset completely, so I'd just choose to play on PC instead.

I trust Valve to make a much more hastle-free experience than Meta at this point. And be probably switching myself as long as the price in my region allows for it.

They also already have installation from external sources turned on by default.

Why the hell are we babying people who turn it off? They read the warning, they know the risks.

You don't need a credit card for a dev account. You do, however, need to have a "business" attached. Luckily, that business they're asking for doesn't need to be verified, so it can be just a random string of letters.

Still bs that you have to go through all of that just to install apps you want.

I use a blank 75% keyboard.

For the numbers, I use F and J as points of reference to find whatever number I need. This is enough for a majority of cases, and I haven't been using a numpad for most things in the first place.

4 and 5 above F, 6 and 7 above J, 0 is 3rd from the right, 1 and 2 are two leftmost. The rest are handled by the process of elimination.

But when I need to fill out spreadsheets worth of data, I just use a Bluetooth numpad that also doubles as a calculator. For that purpose, it's just too convenient. And no, QMK layers didn't help in my case. It would help if I used ortholinear keyboard, however.

fixed, ty

I don't trust Microsoft to make apps on their OS work as well as on x86. Their support so far with X elite/pro chips was very telling.

Credit where credit is due, Apple worked hard with other developers to make the transition to ARM possible. Microsoft doesn't seem to be bothered to do that much.

Wait, they were planning to release B4 on Switch 2? With that "optimisation"?

What were they smoking there?

That's Capcom doing a lecture on optimisation with MH Wilds as an example all over again.

Man, these decision-makers are something else.

I wouldn't go for higher than 27" with 1440p because of PPI. You may want to look into 4k or UW 1440p monitors for a higher diagonal.

Titan Army recently launched their G27W8S, which is a 350$ 26.5" OLED monitor.

I have a 1440p 1152 zone MiniLED IPS of theirs and it's honestly really good. My only complaints are nitpicks, which can be ignored considering it was like 200-250$.

Doesn't g5 use a slow VA panel?

Edit: Now that I'm looking at it, there are different G5s and G6s that use different panels.

My choice was 5070ti, but only because they are the same price with 9070xt where I live.

Usually, 9070xt costs around 80$ cheaper, which makes it a no-brainer to pick up over 5070ti, imo. Same performance, often better. Only slightly worse in RT, but, honestly, it's often not worth turning it on anyway. It also has better Linux support and better driver support.

I would probably not go for 7900xtx because of FSR4 and subpar RT performance, which are kinda needed in some of the recent games (rip optimisation). But if you don't care about those, it may be worth picking up.

4080... Depends on the price. I wouldn't take it for a price higher than 5070ti.

It does, but in my experience, it's way worse for recollection.

Electronic devices are superior when it comes to storing and organizing data, which makes it a better tool if you prefer to use active recall as a memorisation method.

I had literal books worth of notes until switching to a tablet (a stylus keeps the benefits of writing, btw). And going over them when preparing for exams was an absolute nightmare.

Almost same sigle-core preformance, but much higher multi-core.

If you can do it for very cheap then go for it. 12 cores is always nice to have, especially going up from just 4.

Same with going from DDR3 to DDR4.

1. Skyrim
2. Minecraft
3. Destiny 2

Proxy is a step below VPN since it doesn't tunnelise data.

Anti-detect browsers. Do you mean Tor? It's a decent solution, albeit the slowest one.

What people use to bypass the great Chinese firewall is VPN with VLESS protocols. Unlike usual VPN protocols, those are specifically made to bypass censorship.

Any government already has all of that information, so, no.

By giving it to a company, you just increase the risks of info leakage.

A little background info:

Russia's been sponsoring one of its oligarchs' business by eliminating their competition.

First, they restricted YouTube's speed to an unusable state to force people to switch to RuTube (they didn't)

Now they're trying to force people to switch from WhatsApp (and potentially Telegram) to MAX, which they want to be Russia's version of WeChat.

Add the fact that our politicians are obsessed with controlling all of the media and you'll get the gist of it.

Reach and convenience. Why do you think podcasts exist on YouTube when they could've as well been audio-only?

Besides, some people like to see the speaker, because it gives visual clues about what's being said. Not everybody absorbs info efficiently through reading texts or just listening. Sometimes you need more than one way of recieving information.
