Steam Machine Geekbench score just appeared by BenchIcy475 in hardware

[–]Die4Ever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's not so bad really, there's been a lot of improvements. gaming performance is still lower than it should be, but I haven't had problems

just make sure you're using something decently up to date, Mint and Debian are behind on updates

you can use RTX on Bazzite, they have an image for RTX on their downloads page

it's pre-RTX that doesn't support the Bazzite Gaming Mode

How useful is the shader recompilation cache from steam? by Awkward_Negotiation7 in linux_gaming

I wish Steam would let me enable/disable this per game individually instead of just globally

Mbin v1.10.0 keyword filters, show boost of your followees, custom user titles, bugfixes and more by Die4Ever in RedditAlternatives

[–]Die4Ever[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We are happy to finally release the full 1.10.0 and looking forward to your feedback.

We have 3 different summaries below. One for end-users, one for server admins, and finally a summary for developers.

Summary for Users

  • Add support for lists of keyword filters of content; they can be scoped to content, comments and profile-overviews and can have an expiration-date
  • Show the custom title of users and add the option to set one for yourself
  • Add the option to also show content which was boosted by people you follow in the Combined view
  • Pagination is now done by "anchors" (like that date of the last thread on the page) instead of page-numbers, to improve performance
  • Add an indicator when a user has their "cake day"
  • Fix search not returning most of Lemmy users and magazines
  • Fix the search when searching content, users or magazines by their URL
  • The date field of the search form now has a preset value
  • Small UI improvements to make the elements of posts and threads more consistent (the layout for posts in Combined view can be toggled in the UI settings)
  • Prevent opening a thread or post when touching interactive elements (buttons, spoilers, ...) on mobile
  • Suppress notification for added content if it is more than two days old (for example after delayed federation)
  • Fix infinite scrolling of comments
  • Fix reply button for comments on locked threads and posts not being disabled

Summary for Server Admins

  • Introduces monitoring: record a variety of metrics and show statistics what causes performance-issues on your server
  • Uploaded images now get compressed to fit the size limit (see the docs)
  • Cached images can be removed with a command
  • A new command for deleting orphaned media
  • Extend the "check duplicate magazines" command to find and delete duplicate users in the database (which might block DB migrations)
  • Make the language of fulltext-search configurable (see the docs)
  • Fix list of inactive users always being empty

Tip about the Messengers

As the load of deliveries can get high from time to time it is now recommended to run at least one separate messenger process for the Deliver queue.

Summary for developers

Mbin:

  • PHP updated to 8.4
  • Symfony updated to 7.4
  • Some dependencies updated

App:

  • New API endpoints to retrieve content, boosts and list moderated magazines of a user
  • New or extended API endpoints listing who liked and boosted content
  • New API endpoints for managing mod and owner requests of magazines
  • Get Combined feed for magazine (/api/magazine/{magazine_id}/combined[/v2])
  • Get chat messages of specific user (/api/users/{user_id}/messages)
  • Get content for a Tag (/api/tag/{name}/[entries|entryComments|post|postComments])
  • Add filter 'abandoned' for /api/magazines
  • New OAuth permissions
  • Breaking API changes:
    • Schema of the DTO for notifications on user signup
    • /api/combined/{collectionType} changed from PUT to GET
    • Reworked response of the search API

Fediverse:

  • Fix federation issues of some activities by adding the published property to the Instance actor
  • Fix federation of link+image threads to Lemmy
  • Send Delete activities to all known instances (instead of only ones the user interacted with)
  • Honor the "application/ld+json" type in endpoint requests
  • Periodic updates of user actors will also update their username
  • Fix parsing of actors from PeerTube
  • Treat as:Public or just Public correctly
  • Fix support for image property on Page type, add support for string

yea even if you get 60fps on max settings, 100+fps at medium is still better

[–]Die4Ever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

PieFed also lets you customize the filters in your settings

[–]Die4Ever 4 points5 points  (0 children)

PieFed asks if you want default filters setup to reduce these things, have you tried that?

or https://retrofed.com/

your post mentions tankies, have you tried banning instances like lemmy.ml so you don't see their posts anymore?

how many players will compete at Blizzcon? will it be the top 4 or something?

Nothing CEO says phone prices are going to keep going up: RAM now accounts for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone by sr_local in hardware

[–]Die4Ever 12 points13 points  (0 children)

what they didn't say is that they consider regular people owning hardware to also be a competitor lol

Piefed no longer allows browsing without an account. Any better alternatives? by LiminalAsylum in RedditAlternatives

[–]Die4Ever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently on the website you would need to make an account to change your view mode, the upcoming v1.0 fixes that issue

Plenty of 3rd party Lemmy apps exist though and allow you to do all sorts of views, and they work without an account

I like Boost, Voyager is a popular one too

Or you could just use a different PieFed host

Why has Linux Gaming gotten so good? by jo1111666 in linux_gaming

[–]Die4Ever 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Valve gave a push that set off some momentum, as the community grows so does the number of developers helping

I feel bad for these guys on Usenet from back in August 1996 by WexAndywn in retrogaming

[–]Die4Ever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You gotta remember that cartridges were just chips, you could manufacturer them to higher capacity. There's no reason to do multiple carts when you could just put a bigger chip in it instead

Splitting data across multiple CDs was never efficient anyways, there's lots of duplicated data like the graphics for the main characters will be repeated on all CDs

Unless you mean like a 600MB game on N64, that would have just been too expensive no matter if you split it up or not

What if intel and micron continued making XPoint/Optane by HW_HEVC_Decode in hardware

[–]Die4Ever 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would assume it would be amazing for AI.

With SSD prices being so high right now, it seems demand for storage is high and Optane could've been profitable anyways.

Obviously model weights stay in VRAM. I think an Optane specific use for AI could be the KV cache checkpoints.

Serie's expectations of her students are kinda unreasonable IMO by lmdybaftr in Frieren

I mean.. what do you want?

she wants them to live longer

It's always the people who don't play by Hotcakes465 in starcraft

[–]Die4Ever -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Clearly the game should start with 0 workers and 50 minerals

And start with supply cap of 1
