If co-pilot remains active even if you don't have an NPU, and it consumes GPU/CPU resources and can't be disabled, and that results in say a 10% gaming performance downgrade compared to Linux (these are a lot of ifs), then I imagine desktop Linux would finally get a big bump in adoption, once all the 'serious gamers' start using it purely for performance benefits. We'll see how this plays out.

Not me but a good friend of mine met a girl and lied about his job. He was already working a decent job as a floor salesman while applying to be a flight attendant which paid more money. He told her he already had the position he was applying for, which he never got and it kept snowballing until he could no longer come clean without major consequences. For 6 months, he had to make up a fake flight schedule, fake work-related anecdotes, etc., Needless to say when he eventually came clean she ended things, and I suppose he learned a very strange but valuable lesson. It was pretty funny to me at least.

The US also effectively banned the entire Arab world from buying US GPU’s, I’ve run a business here for years that specialized in GPU compute at the datacenter level, and now we’re pretty much transitioning into a new line of business because of this genius policy, while existing customers in this region are also considering Huawei GPU’s as a possible replacement.

Is it just me, or is that foot rest backwards?

What an absolute farce of a “report” and an article

[–] nom_nom@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Yes, thank you :) It’s just that after writing it down and reading it back to myself, I genuinely realized it wasn’t a big deal. Life is unfair, but paradoxically it’s also equally unfair to everyone, although it can seem that your life particularly sucks. Not to take away from the genuine tragedies some people are experiencing, but sometimes it seems just writing it down can help you resolve the magnitude of the issue to some degree, and make you grateful for the good things in your life. This whole thread has been great self-therapy. Much love to everyone here.

I use Jellyfin but I have family who can’t side load the Jellyfin app on their TV’s, so… Plex for them

MacOS with a tiling window manager for work, Win10 on PC for gaming and Linux on all servers. I would run Linux for work if Office, Adobe and esp. Outlook ran on it, MacOS with Yabai + SKHD is the closest I can get to a Linux experience while still being functional for work.

My dude, I can't thank you enough for this amazing piece of software. I've been waiting for an iOS Lemmy app for over a year now, and this is much better than what I expected/hoped for. God bless you.

I think that, as humans always choose the path of least resistance, implementing any sort of algorithm is the fastest way to a 'dopamine kick', and as such the attention that new or lengthy information provides suffers. One thing I love about the current Fediverse (and I've heard this term used before, too), is that it is very reminiscent of the early internet - when everything was random and interesting, different view-points, things you'd never heard of, etc., If people had the option between algorithm or no algorithm, if it were a simple toggle, I'd have to imagine most people would choose the algorithm, which would be a real shame.

Same! That first line, "make the net weird again" sums up all my hopes for the future of the fediverse
