Samsung gears up to release Apple Vision Pro rival in 2025
  • Go with Linux on top of that and you're kinda forced down to the Index, or to wait for the Deckard, which surely won't be cheap either.

    Lemmy has made me hate people more than any other social media platform.
  • I clash a lot with all the terrorist simps & dictator loving Tankies, which certainly turns into idiotic arguments most of the time, but I don't think I've ever managed to get banned from a server, which really makes me wonder what those "opinions from a different perspective" are. I'm guessing Trumpanzee's and other far right goons will have an especially hard time on here.

    Valve Engineer Fixes Massive Performance Issue For RADV Driver With AMD FSR2
  • I'm curious if that fixes the issue I was facing. FSR2 (and 1 for that matter) basically did nothing for performance, or even reduces it when enabled. FSR3 on the other hand often gives me like up to 40 additional FPS in some games, but of course not all games have FSR3.

    I still see the same old issue of a lot of Proton games degrading in FPS when you change graphic settings though, requiring a restart of the game to properly test and optimize them. No idea if that's an AMD or Proton specific issue though.

    1. It's their, not there.
    2. Climate change does not care about your borders. So of course actual proper Green parties care about green foreign politics.
    3. You're literally in everyone's face when it comes to other countries.

    Most people aren't attracted to an entire gender so why do we frame attraction in those terms so much?
  • People like to put things into a box, to classify them, make them tangible, to understand at a glance. Thinking of sexuality and identity as a spectrum isn't too complicated. Instead of male or female, you have maybe something ranging from masculine to feminine, and everything in between. But where it gets confusing is how you'd describe either being somewhere on that spectrum, or to what exactly your sexual preferences range. A classical bi person would be right dead center in the middle, or maybe sway a little to one side over the other, but would you still call it bi? Maybe pan? Someone formerly hetero or gay would also be easy, being at the far end of the spectrum. But what about people who are a little more flexible in their attraction? "Girls" with dicks? "Guys" with vags? Maybe they don't even strictly identify as either one. Whether one's more hetero or gay leaning, you'd be likely somewhere halfway towards the middle of your sexual attraction spectrum, just like the people identifying & looking accordingly, but how would you describe that yourself, and others - without being disrespectful for their own identify? Maybe you're gynosexual for the feminine side? Androsexual for the male one? How many people would understand those terms though? "I like girls, including those with a little extra" - "I'm into femininity"? Terminologies are constantly changing rapidly on top of all that too, and for many things there aren't really much established terms either. This further makes it harder for people to move away from the old binary classifications, even if generally supportive in principle. But those who aren't, will obviously just see a very confusing mess of things they don't understand.

    Modlog !Modlog Screenshot Original thread

    Last time I checked the thread had 2 upvotes and 6 downvotes. Shows you how insane this entire network is.

    Edit: Apologies for the wrong thread link, containing the album of the original thread in the other community. Originally I had this thread here organized differently and the original album was linked in the body for context, but it got eaten by spam protection. Same happened to this one, but I only noticed the mistake after since I'm still tired, and then it got manually approved.

    Back when the full invasion started and Russian soldiers began to officially occupy new Ukrainian territory, Svitlana was one of the civilians directly confronting & cursing the armed soldiers. She told them to put sunflower seeds into their pockets, so that their rotting corpses would act as fertilizer, and consequently became a symbol of Ukrainian resistance when the videos went viral.

    Almost a decade later and it still hurts. The first time I heard this song I was immediately captivated, eagerly awaiting more songs and the upcoming album release, just to hear and learn some years later that she passed away and would not even see the release of it. Rest in peace, Aleah.

    Edit: Update! See comment below! ____________

    So, this has been going on for a long while now but I hoped after a bit of a hiatus it would maybe fix itself when I come back. Basically, the game does not render any of the close up natural ground textures around a certain radius around me anymore.

    It is basically like it stopped rendering the high quality textures for them, as it is literally using the chunk based rendering of the game where it caps out, being affected by zoom / fov levels too. So when I'm in the ship in third person cam and landed, it looks more like a triangle expanding from the cockpit to the back. With the scanner I can even see through the ground and highlight ores or chests beneath, which would normally be blocked, which would tell me that this is within the rendering pipeline of the game.

    And no, it is not my GPU. This does not happen in other games, including Fallout NV, and I even switched out to my old RX 580, which showed the exact same problem. It's also not mods, since I tested it on a fresh installation & prefix, with various Proton versions. So at this point I can only assume it must be something with my OS / system config. But when the issue started, I also tried to revert back to an older kernel, which again, did nothing.

    I'd really like to avoid trying a new installation of my OS as I'm really sick of going through the backup, restoration & setup process again.

    Edit: One detail I forgot to mention. Some single squares do continue to render, even within the invisible radius. But when I go to them and look at the ground, my FPS and frame times start to tank heavily. Unsure if that's related at all though.

    >What a horrible existence you lead. Denying that people different than you exist. Seeing imagined conspiracies rather than accept new knowledge. Living, breathing, even wanting and enforcing such dreadful conformity. Such ignorance. You've seen the joys of a diverse world of love and freedom and you told it to fuck off. If my life were as dull as yours, I'd kill myself. But you want it that way. The only possible explanation I can think of for such aberrant behaviour is that your mind is as much smaller than mine as your world is. There are others of your species who were explorers. They climbed mountains and crossed oceans. They peered into the distant past and they landed on the moon. But you're not of their kin. You want a small world. You don't dream of meeting other species like the humans who love their Star Trek and their isekais. You heard of otherkin, and denied their existence. You don't want it to be real. You've heard of queer people with an existence queerer than you have yet known, and you chose erasure. To you, entire lives, loves, ways of being are a joke. You refuse to see it otherwise. You aren't gripped by the spirit of exploration, you don't want to meet these people, to see the truth with your own eyes, not even to deny it. The idea of putting in the effort to learn anything, whether it be that this larger world is true or false, is repugnant to you. You want to already know the answer, and you want it to be the boring one. I could introduce you to dragons, to gods, to wolves, and stranger wonders still, but you don't care. You don't even pull out your search engine and google it. Not even that small effort of exploration. You want a tiny world. How small you must be.
