2024 Sāo Paulo Grand Prix - [QUALIFYING] discussion thread ⏱️
  • Now albon. Way way too many red flags in conditions that are challenging but not terrible. What is going on?

    This is what happens when you have to stop the racing because of the spray every time it rains. Drivers are losing their ability to drive safely in the rain because they do it so rarely

  • Too many people are crashing. Conditions are difficult but not that difficult. Hell we have had worse conditions at Interlagos in the past and we had less crashes

    What can I do in other Linux distros that I can't do in Linux Mint Xfce?
  • If you are speaking about stock Linux mint Xfce, with the default kernal, mesa version etc., your support for very new hardware - Arrow lake, battlemage and RDNA 4 will be imperfect. In general, very new hardware (launched within the last 6 months) will not be supported properly because the lts kernel being used was written before these products were launched

  • The one thing that can keep you guys in a potential title race is that the one person in their squad that city cant replace(either like for like or through a change in tactics) is out for the season.

    Max Verstappen handed 5s penalty for VSC infringement, drops to 4th in 2024 Sao Paolo Sprint Classification
  • He was 0.63 seconds below the minimum, over a half a second

    If he was off by less than a second as to when VSC would actually end, he would have ended up above the minimum time before he could slow back down. We have seen countless sprinters jumping a start when they are held for longer than usual time and it was not because all those people crumbled under pressure.

    he was overly focused on being right on top of Piastri rather than his margin. Max appears to get more reckless under pressure.

    Well you always take more risks when you have the 'slower' car than when you have the quicker car. Max raced the Ferrari differently because he knows he can have multiple attempts to pass Charles. Against the McLarens, he pushing the limits to try and gain any advantage. Often results in him going over the penalties and some the incidents (T7/T8 in Mexico) were way over the line but I would rather see someone pushing the limits rather than just accepting their fate.

  • So I saw that the rpm-ostreed-automatic.service was failing so I manually tried to upgrade but when i run rpm-ostree upgrade, I am getting an error Creating importer: Failed to invoke skopeo proxy method OpenImage: remote error: A signature was required, but no signature exists. Is this some error at my side or is this some key related issue at uBlue's side?

    I recently made a post about my FreeSync certified monitor not supporting VRR over HDMI. I thought that there was VRR support over HDMI even for versions below 2.1 spec. Am I mistaken in my assumption¿? Has the HDMI forum prevented the implementation of FreeSync in the open source drivers¿?

    Obligatory fuck the HDMI forum and the HDMI spec.

    I have a AMD CPU + AMD dGPU laptop and recently bought a LG FreeSync monitor. I hooked up the monitor to my laptop and got it working mostly fine but I dont get any option to set VRR on my LG monitor.

    I am on Gnome and have enabled VRR through gsettings. My laptop display shows the option to toggle VRR (and is currently being used with VRR on) but my LG display does not. The Archwiki says that the option to toggle VRR should show up on every supported display. I have verified from the user manual that FreeSync is supported over both HDMI and DP and from the monitors menu, I have verified that FreeSync is enabled. Is this a bug or I am missing something.

    Hardware and Software

    • Ryzen 5 5600H with Vega integrated graphics
    • Radeon RX 5500M
    • Internal Display of 1080p, 144Hz (I have no idea which panel it is)
    • LG 24GS60F-B monitor connected over HDMI 2.0
    • uBlue main 40 (Fedora Silverblue 40)
    • GNOME 46.4
    • Kernel version 6.10.3
    • Mesa 24.1.5

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    So there are these two monitors - Samsung Odyssey G3 LS24AG32 and LS24AG30. Both of them are practically the same but the LS24AG32 is 165Hz and the LS24AG30 is 144Hz. Since they are both VA panels, I was worried about severe ghosting. All the reviews I find are for LS24AG30 which has what I find is an acceptable level of ghosting but I the only model available on my region is LS24AG32 so I am wondering if it uses the same panel which would mean a similar level of ghosting. The issue is that the old model of the Odyssey G3 had terrible ghosting so I am worried about the LS24AG32. The LS24AG32 model comes with a AU optronics M238HVN02.0 CELL but I couldn't find any information for the LS24AG30. Can somebody help me. Thanks in advance

    > Testing if VRR is active and working > > I recently updated to fedora 40 and enabled the experimental setting to get VRR running. But I am an idiot who has been playing at frames rates between 30-60 on screens without VRR for almost all of my life so I can't even know if VRR is actually working or not. Is there some rest I can run to see if VRR is functional¿? If not, which parts of the game should I concentrate to see the difference between VRR and no VRR¿?

    Edit : I am on a laptop with the integrated screen being the one being used. I am currently using ublue-main

    So I have this external 2.5" drive salvaged from an old laptop of mine. I was trying to use it to backup/store data but the transfer to the drive fails repeatedly at the ~290GB mark leading me to believe that maybe there is a bad sector on the drive. I tried to inspect the drive using smartmontools and smartctl but since it is an external drive, i was not allowed to do so. Is there anyway for me to inspect and fix this drive? I am on fedora ublue-main. The HDD is a 1TB seagate drive.

    Edit : I am a linux noob so some hand holding will be appreciated. Also i am looking to use this drive only for low priority media files which i dont mind losing so please help even though it is not the greatest idea to use a failing drive

    Edit 2 : It seems my post is not clear of what i am doing. I dont want to recover data from the drive. I want to try to use more of the drive for storing data

    Words cannot express just how much I love the new setting to quickly toggle between light and dark mode. I am very very grateful. Thank you @aeharding@lemmy.world, this is a wonderful app.

    Since there is no F1TV community, I am posting here. I am trying to watch the pre season test on my phone running but am running into the error in the picture. My phone is running lineageOS 20. Is this a widevine certification issue¿? Is there anyway to resolve this¿?

    Edit : Further phone details - Motorola G60. F1TV app used to work normally with the stock rom(at least it did last year)
