  • Is lemmy now what reddit used to be 10+ years ago?
  • I can look at the earliest posts and comments on my account from 10 years ago and cringe at my past self. I'll definitely be able to do the same with this account in the future haha

  • Haha I was wondering what you were pretty sure about with that last sentence there.

    I'm not familiar with Book of the New Sun, but can hiruko actually absorb memories? I was pretty sure that was just something the innkeeper was telling herself to feel better about her son being eaten by Taka, and the only reason it took so long to kill her was because she kept feeding it guests. I'm not sure I understand the hiruko being both the cause and effect though, what do you mean? I was thinking the timeline has been pretty linear so far.

    After thinking about it more, my best guess on Robin's motivation is that he wants to somehow use the hiruko's regenerative abilities to bring his sister back, and that's the end goal of his experiments. The guy from back on the ship with the rotting hiruko part mentioned a rumor about how attaching a piece of one to yourself would make you immortal and that there's a doctor at the Immortal Order who will do the surgery. That rumor probably didn't originate from Dr. Usami since his work was on prosthetics, but Robin also spent time with the Immortal Order, and we've seen what his experiments were...

  • The statue is definitely supposed to be recognizable, but we haven't seen her in quite a while now so I don't blame you! Mikura Manaka is the person who tasked Kiruko with protecting Maru on his medicine delivery quest from the start of the series.

    spoiler

    She is also the director after the transplant operation that put her brain in Nata's body.

    My confusion comes from what the monument to her is meant to imply though. With it being presented like that on the last page of the chapter, it looks like it should be a big revelation, but I don't see it. Feels like it has to be more than just "she helped take care of the children here for a while".

    I missed that this place was New Heaven though... It's a stretch, but what if the children here are a new generation of Hiruko? Mikura must have been doing research somehow if she was able to develop a cure.

  • This chapter's done a good job answering a lot of the outstanding Robin questions I had, but the big one is still there. What's the goal of his experiments?

    Also, what is the implication of the monument in the square? That she had something to do with the orphanage after they fled Asakusa?

  • Linux is still not ready to replace Windows
  • It's not necessarily about asking questions or providing the right detail to someone who knows more than you though. After asking for help with the problems I'm experiencing, the answer turned out to be that the NVIDIA driver support for my hardware configuration just isnt there yet. It's not Linux's fault, but unless I spend hundreds to switch my GPU brand or start unlugging monitors, I'm stuck with Windows until Explicit Sync hits the stable release.

  • NVIDIA 555 Beta Linux Graphics Driver Released with Explicit Sync Support
  • Oh yeah for sure, it works great when I set my monitors to the same refresh rate, but I'd prefer to not have to do that because it's a pretty big difference between them. My secondary monitor is 165hz, but my primary monitor is 360hz, and trying to run them at their native refresh rates at the same time in X11 doesn't work at all. I'd have to set the 360hz monitor down to 165hz to match my secondary monitor before things become usable.

  • NVIDIA 555 Beta Linux Graphics Driver Released with Explicit Sync Support
  • I can't use my two monitors on X11 because they're different refresh rates unfortunately. I'd have to either lower the refresh rate of my main monitor to match my secondary monitor (ew) or disable my secondary monitor completely. I get the flickering in Wayland also sadly.

  • NVIDIA 555 Beta Linux Graphics Driver Released with Explicit Sync Support
  • I've not been having a pleasant experience with it, but X11 has its own share of issues as well. They have different issues though, my problems in Wayland are not identical to the problems i have with X11. PopOS under Wayland has been the most usable so far, but I'm hoping that when this update hits the stable branch it'll finally make Bazzite practical as my main OS.

  • NVIDIA 555 Beta Linux Graphics Driver Released with Explicit Sync Support
  • How can I update to this beta driver in Bazzite?

  • Microsoft's AI will be inside Minecraft, and other Xbox, PC games: new Copilot features will search your inventories, offer tips and guides
  • The article seems to be implying that for some reason, but Copilot doesn't actually do anything to control the game either. In the demo, it was just telling the player whether or not they had the material to craft a sword based on what it could see when the player opened their inventory or a chest. It also gave a recommendation on how to get wood to make a sword with, but it can't take control of the game and auto-gather or auto-build or really do anything at all like those advanced cheat clients do. It's more like having a conversation with someone who's watching you play from over your shoulder than any actual cheats.

    I think this article did a bad job of explaining what they showed off in the presentation.

  • I haven't succeeded in weeks

  • Released: NVIDIA 555.42.02 Linux Beta Brings Wayland Explicit Sync, GSP Firmware
  • Is this the update that will let me use two monitors with different refresh rates at the same time under wayland?

  • Microsoft's AI will be inside Minecraft, and other Xbox, PC games: new Copilot features will search your inventories, offer tips and guides
  • Don't worry, the title is pretty misleading actually. The AI won't be "inside" Minecraft at all. In the demo, the player is "sharing their screen" with Copilot from the desktop and It's analyzing what's being shown on it, which just so happens to be a Minecraft window. It's working purely off the same visuals you're getting, there's no extra integration happening behind the scenes and Mojang hasn't added any Copilot code into Minecraft.

    The "impressive" part of the demo (and what they explained on stage) is that it doesn't need to be integrated into the game to figure out what's happening on screen, so this should be possible in any game played on Windows. If you're on Linux, you'll never see it.

  • Microsoft's AI will be inside Minecraft, and other Xbox, PC games: new Copilot features will search your inventories, offer tips and guides
  • It's not clear from the title, so I want to point out that they aren't integrating Copilot into Minecraft. It's not part of the game at all. In the demo, the player is "sharing their screen" with Copilot and the AI is analyzing what's being shown on it. It's working purely off the same visuals you're getting, there's no extra integration happening behind the scenes and Mojang hasn't added Copilot to Minecraft on their end.

    This is pretty impressive IMO because it means it will work in any game it can recognize without the developers needing to do anything to integrate Copilot.

  • ProPublica didn't post that to Lemmy, they publish to their own site. Someone else (PirateJesus) copy-pasted their article and posted it here.

  • Microsoft says “Prism” translation layer does for Arm PCs what Rosetta did for Macs
  • ARM is the licensor, not the licensee. At the very least, they are willing to license the ARM architecture to more companies (the licensees) than Intel is with x86. More RISC-V support would be ideal though for sure...

  • I'm giving Linux gaming a shot, but I've run into a couple display issues

    I'm dual booting Pop\_OS and Windows 11 for now while l try things out. I went with Pop\_OS for the NVIDIA drivers, since I have a NVIDIA card. Installation went smoothly, but setup is where things started to get a little weird.

    I have 2 monitors, a main 360hz monitor and a secondary 165hz monitor. I seem to be able to have them both working at the same time in Windows 11 without issue, but in Pop\_OS, setting the refresh rate to 360hz on the first monitor causes both displays to stop working properly. The 360hz monitor will stop displaying picture all-together, and the 165hz monitor will start flickering wildly. Turning off the second monitor brings the 360hz's image back, but then I'm down a monitor. Also, if I set the refresh rate to anything lower than 360hz, they'll both work. I'd like to still be able to use it at the native refresh rate, but I can't seem to find any other solutions or anyone else who seems to have had this same issue.

    My second (slightly less annoying) issue is that I can't seem to use HDR in games. Is this normal, or is there something I can do to bring back support?

    Also, if Pop\_OS isn't the way to go, please let me know! I tried Nobara first, but immediately had issues with the displays locking up and flickering before I even got it installed.

    I've just discovered that my monitor of the last 2 years (HP X27q) supports HDR 400. Not great, but an improvement over SDR nonetheless, I'd say. Only problem is, when I enable it, the monitor begins

    I've just discovered that my monitor of the last 2 years (HP X27q) supports HDR 400. Not great, but an improvement over SDR nonetheless, I'd say. Only problem is, when I enable it, the monitor begins to emit a very high pitch whining noise. It's incredibly quiet, so quiet I didn't notice it for a few days. But now that I know it's there, it's definitely there and I can't go back to not hearing it. What in the world is going on with the HDR setting?

    Is it at all possible to use Android Auto in a car that only supports Apple CarPlay?

    I might be completely misunderstanding the way Android Auto/CarPlay function. They're both essentially just screen projections from your phone to the in-car display, right?

    Since my car only supports CarPlay, is there any way for me to "trick" it into thinking I have an iPhone plugged in and get it to allow my phone to display the Android Auto interface on the screen instead?

    Is anybody else still waiting for their Elegoo Neptune 4 Pro to ship?

    I made a post about this a couple weeks ago as well, but my order for the 4 Pro still hasn't shipped and I haven't seen any email updates from Elegoo either. I placed my order back on August 6th with shipping from the US warehouse for delivery in August. There's still a bit of time left in the month, but if it hasn't shipped yet, it doesn't seem very likely it will arrive by then.

    I searched around and found a relevant comment by their support account on Reddit. They said they would send out an email on Thursday to let people know when to expect August orders to ship, but that email was never sent as far as I can tell. I suppose I'm glad it's not a problem with my order specifically and Elegoo is aware something is wrong, but I'm starting to get concerned about the lack of any updates all month. Anybody else here in the same boat waiting for it to ship?

    Entering the 3rd week of real estate software provider Rapattoni's supposed ransomware attack

    No estimate when crucial MLS listings provided by Rapattoni will be restored.

    Real estate markets scramble following cyberattack on listings provider

    I've linked an article from a week ago here, but the content is still relevant as the attack is ongoing.

    I don't work in tech, but I do bookkeeping for real estate associations. On the morning of Wednesday, August 9th, I found myself unable to log into Rapattoni MLS, and ever since then it's been almost complete silence from them. It's been almost 2 whole weeks without access now and over a week since the company last put out a statement.
