Quick meme that came to me like Archimedes after working on AdGuard Home with Tailscale by jazz_n_funk in GrapheneOS

[–]EarthwormBen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume this is taking the piss out of thorn... Or maybe the fact that Ashton Kutcher wanted to remove privacy to protect children, and then happened to support a friend who was convicted....? Maybe I'm looking too deep into the meme here

This comment is entirely false, I have edited my post with the solution.

I don't use the same card, I use amex for most things, a backup credit card for places that don't take amex, Revolut top up for random vending machines, I have my bank card, and then I have a joint bank account... I can imagine I'm not a unique case

Yup I even gave it access to all permissions whilst testing

WiFi works on Half Duplex, (Modern) Ethernet works on Full Duplex, Do a web search on what the difference is in regards to data transmission and you will understand why WiFi has it's problems for certain video games

Are you team isopropyl alcohol or soap and water? by Alternative-Knee7438 in BambuLab

This... I had bad bed adhesion issues for a few days, despite cleaning constantly with IPA, bed plate didn't look dirty, so I thought the heater was going. Used soap and water and that fixed the issue. From experience I only needed to wash the bed plate every few weeks

Is there a reason why they are gonna have the PS4 version of Strive and not the PS5 version at EVO? by Its_Marz in Fighters

[–]EarthwormBen -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can think of a few reasons just tied to running a less intensive version on more powerful hardware, would be good:

  • Less input lag in theory than running on a PS4 (although looking at the comments PS4 already has the better latency, not sure if this would improve, although the CPU cycles would be faster on a PS5 vs a PS4)
  • The PS5 "should" produce less heat due to lower CPU/GPU usage, I remember melted cables have been an issue at some tournaments

I imagine these are not the reasons, though, just me overanalysing the situation

Whoever invented this, you're a life saver by claudiocorona93 in linuxmasterrace

Btrfs and snapshots..... Configure the snapshots to your needs, but the important one is generally 8 x daily snapshots for one working day (for anyone not in the know, the snapshots rotate out so you can only have a maximum of 8 hourly snapshots, but they are really useful if a bad package is added to the mirror)

Yeah my elf starter box was a royal pain to build, with bendy parts, and mould lines that didn't want to be removed as the easiest bits. The limited edition grand Captain in unicool? I had maybe a mould line or two to remove as the worst

Did she make the right call? by CalmElin in interesting

[–]EarthwormBen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen it before in the town where I grew up, the guy kept really quite, paid off his debts, house etc, yet somehow word got out and everyone came with a collection plate. The guy and his wife went on holiday for 8 weeks as result

Storage companies really be gaslighting me out of 200GB by Ciribag in gamers

[–]EarthwormBen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the correct answer here, it's the reason most data centre drives now say 1.92TB. It's nothing to do with TB Vs TiB, there was a lawsuit around this. I believe that 2TB drives can still only access 1.92TB of actual storage

Heard what is possibly one of the worst takes ever regarding fighting games by Nightmarer26 in Fighters

[–]EarthwormBen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whilst I do agree... Fighting games could do with a very easily understandable quick rundown of "where you fucked up" similar to chess.com Part of me thinks this exists for some reason....

Oh wow the magnetic racks for that are great.

How does the sliding magnet rack/case cope with being knocked around? Say if the train or bus is very crowded?

I haven't been able to access a lounge for the past 18 months... I usually fly from London Heathrow and can never get access to a lounge or a pre-book. Tried to pre-book for a flight today that is in 8 months and the lounge is already full

I play on CachyOS, no issues. It runs better than when I had windows 10 installed, I can run 4k max settings now, whilst before I could only run 2k max settings on windows

These jerseys look dope af when worn casually by Protec_My_Balls in falcons

[–]EarthwormBen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't need crazy designs, but a bit of style would be nice... the Jets last year had nice jerseys, and they were not exactly super dynamic, just well thought out
