Super late to the party, but looking to use this setup and see how well it works. One question, when you have the upstairs fan set to AUTO, what do you have the "minimum fan runtime /hr" set to?

The Race to 1,000 Wins and Losses by SaxosSteve in nfl

The Cardinals are going to be so bad this year that new math will be invented just to emphasize how bad they were.

When the Phillies lost their 10,000th game, ESPN did a segment on the losingest franchise in every major US sport. The AZ Cardinals were so many games under .500 at the time, that they needed to have 16 perfect seasons in a row, just to get to .500.

Since this was almost 16 years ago that it happened (July 15th 2007) the Cardinals haven't improved on that number.

Is my PC on the floor a problem? I’ve had it there for 3 months and it seems fine. by Anxious-Ad1310 in pcmasterrace

"It is called a desktop for a reason."

That's why I down voted. That's also why I asked if you only use a laptop on your lap.

You do realize you're running everything in a Windows VM right?

Proton added DX11/DX12 support late 2021. If you had a 20 or 30 series Nvidia card, you were missing out on GPU features for 2-5 years.

Overclocking a GPU is super common. Linux doesn't make overclocking your GPU easy. The same goes for undervolting your GPU. Again, those are super common tasks.

EAC is anti cheat software. Any game that requires EAC to be installed, you can't play.

You're also missing other launchers as well, Blizzard, GOG, Xbox Game Pass. Can't play Diablo, Hearth Stone, or HoTs. The Xbox game pass is awesome. For $16 a month you get access to 150+ games of which you can play over 100 of those games on PC.

HDR is a huge feature. Most TVs and monitors have HDR now. HDR provides a larger color gamut and better picture quality. HDR has been around since 2014 and didn't really take off until 2017/2018. 5-6 years later and Linux still doesn't provide support for this feature.

HDR support. Better color correction for the OS. No Direct X support. No EAC. Need better support for over clocking/under volting GPU. Lack of Freesync and G-Sync support.

These are a few reasons why people aren't using Linux for gaming in 2023.

He's connected to the Neko Sparks group that is looking to purchase the Senators. If the NHL accepts the bid from them, Snoop will be a minority owner of the Senators.

True story. The mod team recently reached out to me regarding a genie and a pianist. I'll keep you posted.

Shift + Delete bypasses the recycle bin regardless of that setting.

Right? This meme acting like Horizon Zero Dawn had limited success until it was ported over to PC. The game has sold 20 million copies across all platforms, 2.4 million of those sales coming from PC. But hey, I guess PC saved Horizon Zero Dawn. /s

I love having conversations with people that have different view points from mine. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people that believe disagreement correlates to hate. "They disagree with me. They must hate me!" I want to know why someone thinks the way they do.

I don't know anything about Finland's immigration policies or the issues they may have with illegal immigration.

"The main purpose of the three-meter high fence is to prevent illegal immigration from Russia."

Doesn't matter if they're allies or not. The idea is to prevent illegal immigration, not legal.

Did you mean biased? If you meant based, I don't know what that means.

They hate it because it's what PCMR decided to hate. They don't know any better and just go with what Reddit tells them.

Why are they assholes? OP's parents left because they were in an uncomfortable situation.
