Don’t take those memes seriously, I think the only bad thing I’d have about CachyOS is that it’s probably getting popularity as a trend, which doesn’t reflect on the distro itself.
In my particular personal opinion it seems like a good choice if you already know what you’re doing, since it’s mostly just Arch with a nice installer, which I consider to be a solid choice with good support.
Wouldn’t a real Gentoo user use a genuine IBM era Thinkpad?
And if someone photoshopped something in a realistic way, it was impressive, like “damn, they got me too!”, something to appreciate as art.
Ehh, pretty sure they know what they’re talking about, they just have what I consider a really bad take about it, and present it as absolute fact. Because yes, you need a connection to steam to “install” a game from steam, whereas you can predownload a GOG game and then not need a connection to install. Which doesn’t really matter to most people, since they don’t care about having the game use an official installer, as opposed to either an unofficial one or just archived game files, but it is a difference.
From my understanding, screen tearing happens when the GPU sends a frame to the screen in the middle of that frame being written to the buffer, which means half of the buffer has the last frame, and half has the new one (citation needed on the exact mechanics). VSync works around this by keeping two (or more) final buffers, making sure there’s always a full buffer ready to send to the screen, and waiting to start rendering another frame until one of the buffers is “free”, having been displayed on the screen.
This means the phenomenon is different, because the monitor is displaying the image correctly - it’s receiving an image with a tear in it, and faithfully rendering that.
As a bonus fun fact, Variable Refresh Rate (VRR, also known under marketing terms GSync and FreeSync) is a better way to work around this, it’s basically monitor hardware that can render frames with freer timing (not stuck at a specific refresh rate), and a way for the GPU to send a frame to the monitor when ready instead of a strict schedule, so instead of the GPU waiting for the monitor to be ready, the monitor can wait for the GPU.
I imagine any users contributing from Japan could be subject to penalties under Japanese law though, and if Japan wanted to fight it they could start blocking Wikipedia as well.
Yup, seems like netflix started me at the latest season at the time or something, watched three episodes from the first season…
Not terribly impressed, still, seems like every episode revolves around sex, which is fair, considering humanity, but if every episode is going to be like this it’ll tire me out real soon.
Either way, glad to have checked it out properly from the start, thanks for shouting out the episode name!
CachyOS asks you which DE you want when installing. And even if it didn’t, it’s Arch, and you can have whichever DE you want on Arch. I don’t know Fedora well, but I think it has variants with different DEs preinstalled.
They sure do, here’s the Wikipedia article. This comes naturally as you define i and consider how mathematical operations work with it.
Random fun fact about “ćma”, it’s related to “zaćmić”/“zaćmienie” (“to eclipse”/“eclipse”).
they approximate something similar to the original statement in another language.
The funny thing is, for translating sentences or longer text, that’s what translation is. You can’t translate things 1:1, because different languages have different words, different phrases, different structures. You have to make some sacrifices somewhere, and the more you try to stick to a literal translation, the more stilted the result gets.
This isn’t to say LLMs are a good choice, but translation is an art more than it is a science, so to speak.
The first episode for me was the VR fighting game (to avoid more spoilers), which didn’t exactly motivate me to watch more
I wouldn’t call those games objectively shit, but rather low effort. Often involving janky physics, rough models, bad game balance and friendly fire, all elements that can be funny in the right scenario.
USB drivers aren’t working either.
What the hell do you mean, USB drivers need to be downloaded? Isn’t that standardized and included with the system?
Maybe, but I would be worried about spoilers personally. You can only experience a game freshly once, once you know what’s coming it’s never the same.
One counterpoint to that argument is that you might not know what’s OP, what’s a normal balance level, and what’s gonna be cosmetic when first starting a game.
I believe that’s what they’re saying, that if released software has any bugs that users encounter, and the developers want to know about them to fix them, they’re “outsourcing QA” to the users.
So yeah, good luck creating software and updates with literally no issues :P
On the other hand, the point of ranking and matchmaking is to match you with players of similar skill. When working optimally, you’ll end up with the appropriate ranking, play with players of the same skill, and (in 1v1/1 team vs 1 team games) win 50% of the time.
Some people whine a lot about the idea of losing 50% of the games you play, but if you actually enjoy the game and ignore the rank you have, it’s a great deal.
unfortunately dynamos(like above) and batteries work on DC current. that time machine works on AC.
That might not be true, a lot of AC powered electronics just convert the input to DC, so if you’re lucky you might be able to use DC. One issue is it probably also has a transformer to reduce the voltage, so you’d need to figure out what voltage it wants after the transformer and bypass it.
The image in the comment mostly just feels hipster to me, and that would fit jumping on a currently trendy distro that’s also technically Arch. I don’t know if there’s more to it, it’s just a vibe thing for me.
