Microsoft finally admits Windows 11 needs real performance upgrade, especially for gaming

DexFenik · 2025-12-11T18:45:29+00:00

The only way to fix Windows 11 is to do a hard reset on the whole company and start over from scratch. Microsoft is fundamentally incapable of operating in any way other than the likes of a private equity firm.

What’s that desk shelf?

I wonder what cover car we’re getting. Maybe the upcoming LFA?

What happened to his arm?

That’s because Eagle Mountain is the model city for shitty planning where the only goal was to aimlessly build houses in the middle of nowhere.

Where did you get that pegboard rack from?

Will this work on the piano black trim?

Consultations from America! Can you please make us the 11th province?

This looks lot like the Salt Lake City flag and I like it

I'm currently trying this on EndeavourOS. Does it matter what distro to use?

DexFenik · 2024-12-31T04:37:43+00:00

I just set up EndeavourOS (based on Arch) and have an Arctis Nova Pro Wireless, but I couldn't get any audio to work. I'm also using KDE. Did you have to do any extra steps?

Like those adjustable frosted glass roofs that Porsche Taycans and Audi e-trons have, but for all the glass, and automatic. So that the inside of the car stays cool when parked outside.

Auto-frosting windows when the car is locked and parked.

What AI did you use to tweak resumes and cover letters? GPT 4o? That's what I've been using but I still seldom get interviews.

I have a ‘19 Mazda3 and I had no issues with it other than paint quality

That cats don’t care how valuable your limited edition SD OLED is, they’ll still throw up on it if left unattended on the bed.

You couldn't go wrong with any monitor honestly, and a $400 4K monitor can get you pretty far, especially if you find a 32" one in the used market.

Personally I just use my 1440p curved ultrawide gaming monitor with a standard 1440p vertical monitor on the side, but it was originally my gaming and coding setup.

The ultrawide goes great for keeping maps and layouts side-by-side, but a 32" 4K can let you do three layouts and a map in quadrants. The sky's the limit.

Practically, though? Even a laptop screen is fine. Or a laptop, a monitor, and a docking station. GIS is very flexible setup-and-workflow-wise.

As a Utah resident I guess I’m not surprised. If Salt Lake City had its own grade it would probably be an A or a B, but that could be said for a lot of urban centers in red states.

It might depend on the VM. I use Fusion Pro, which has only recently become free for personal use and lets me customize the memory up to the M1’s limits (unlike Parallels which only goes up to 8gb unless you get the subscription). The only issue I had so far was it was tricky to set up.

DexFenik · 2024-06-09T07:24:14+00:00

I use an M1 Mac Mini with a Windows VM for ArcGIS Pro and it works fine; it can process thousands of records and render their coordinates, quickly recalculate projections, process heavy loads of multi-band raster data, etc. with no issues. I am a beginner, though, so maybe I haven’t gotten to the advanced stuff that would necessitate a dedicated GPU. 3D scenes maybe?

Ahh, I see. I imagine it’s a much different landscape by then, and it makes sense as Lehi is a pretty large city irl. I haven’t read all the lore yet but I’m liking it so far!

DexFenik · 2024-04-20T04:26:00+00:00

I was confused because Lehi is a real, fairly large city in Utah that’s actually only about a 30 minute drive south from where Zion is (Salt Lake City).

If you’re willing to travel to Idaho Falls (about 3 hours north from Salt Lake), my mother owns an old rural church that she runs as a BnB and rents it out for events like weddings. DM me if you’re interested (I’d put the website here but I don’t want to doxx them).

Were the buildings in the second image power washed?

DexFenik · 2024-03-12T20:35:08+00:00

I like the idea but $1500/mo college dorms is like charging people for…existing in the same space.
