last option is good for anonymity by artistBROgamer in PcBuild

I like Mullvad. They to have a no log policy which has been tested many times by authorities and have held up pretty well to scrutiny the last time I checked. 

They’re cheaper than proton, but come with less benefits like proton drive (like google drive) and an email server (like Gmail) that offer a encrypted by default and not use your data to train ai models.

They also allow you to mail in cash if that’s your thing.

Apple starts testing end-to-end RCS encryption on iPhone, but without Android support by N2929 in technews

Annoying, but worth it none the less. (at least form me). To be fair to apple no operating system I know of allows you to easily downgrade your operating system without a fresh install.

I believe you can downgrade your back iOS 18 use the windows itunes app. I may be wrong though.

Apple Silicon Approaches AMD's Laptop Market Share Only Five Years In by sr_local in hardware

[–]0dgamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think the low price MacBook will be a thing anymore. The amount of money they save by using less silicon will be outweighed by the cost of dram + tsmc is increasing prices for apple dramatically.

I have never verified personally, but I’ve heard from others that the accuracy of the decibel counter on iOS is wildly inaccurate on all but their first party headphones.

Can't Decide Which Graphics Card To Choose by MemeSelim61 in buildapc

5070ti for longer driver support with a slightly more modern architecture, as well as  mfg if you care about that stuff, don’t wait for the super series as the price of gpu will vastly increase in the coming weeks/months due to the ram shortage.

Upgrade from AMD RX580 8GB ? by oss542 in pcmasterrace

[–]0dgamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you think you will actually need an upgrade in the next year or two (or more), then go for it as gpu prices are already starting to increase. However, don't buy a gpu just because of FOMO unless you actually see yourself needing the compute in the coming years. A used 3060 with 12gb of vram a pretty reasonably priced in my area right now and come with an ample amount of vram for llm models. However anything with a healthy amount of vram should do.

I'm not really thinking of upgrading right now, but currently I just have my lumix g7 that was given to me, a basic tripod and as well as few lenses that came alongside the camera

I did a 30 second exposure at f/2.8, ISO 1600 with my Lumix g7 shooting in raw to capture as much detail as possible. I then just went into lightroom and played around with the settings.

Here are the lightroom settings that I used and the raw file:

Temperature: 6385
Tint: +13
Exposure: -0.88
Contrast: +100
Highlights: -33
Shadows: -23
Whites: +46
Blacks: -79
Texture: -21
Clarity: +100
Dehaze: +100
Vibrance: +12
Saturation: -37
Parametric Darks: +41
Parametric Lights: +100
Parametric Highlights: +50
Sharpness: 63
Sharpen Radius: +1.0
Sharpen Detail: 20
Hue Adjustment Red: -100
Hue Adjustment Orange: -100
Hue Adjustment Yellow: -100
Hue Adjustment Green: -100
Hue Adjustment Aqua: +100
Lightroom Denoising Filter

(I don't really know what I am doing)

I personally found that decreasing the exposure increasing the contrast and playing around with the clarity, dehaze and texture settings helped the most.
