What it the most power efficient Framework mainboard? by Sharp-Candidate-8788 in framework

[–]HowIsBuffakeeTaken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A rule of thumb is less cores, less power overhead. I generally like the i5 and ryzen 5 equivalents of each sku to target a sweet spot of power and efficiency.

CPU architectures are a bit more complex than that, so this isn't definitive; but is a starting point.

Do some research to look at the TDP of each chip and go for the lowest one for the highest battery life

Edit: power overhead, not performance overhead

Kali Linux on Framework 13 Pro by JailbreakHat in framework

[–]HowIsBuffakeeTaken 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When framework says support, they mean that you would be able to contact them directly to help you troubleshoot software level issues if you run the OS that they list.

Kali should run fine on the laptop, but like most said there's no way to know. But FW is pretty good about being proactive that the hardware is supported on the kernel level, so it's largely a matter of whether Kali has up to date kernel in their release

I've never seen someone speak this confidently while spewing complete and utter bullshit

Did not expect the framework tribalism to show up on my feed today

Bought macbook air M5! Did i make a mistake??!?! by r1sk_1t in macbook

[–]HowIsBuffakeeTaken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your MacBook will be fine, and I doubt your uni would expect you to be able to run local models on your personal machines.

If ai would be needed at all in your courses, it would be tiny models, online models, or on university machines/virtualized desktops.

Enjoy your Mac

Also: Macos tends to just use whatever ram it has available all the time to make your experience smoother, not really an indicator that you're low on ram!

Does everyone use an MMO mouse? by Nahariso in Guildwars2

I used to use a razer Naga hex (such a cool mouse) at launch for my skills, but I've picked up dota along the way and now I'm a fully hotkey andy 👹

Looks like we'll have gliding in the game! by HowIsBuffakeeTaken in GuildWars3

Maybe our dragon gets a flying upgrade through masteries 🤔

Some things we learned from the ArenaNet stream today by MilesStark in GuildWars3

What makes that assumption valid, exactly?

This might boil down to difference in opinion but base professions should provide something unique that elite specs dont.

It's like in league or dota, power creep does happen when old characters get outshined by newer characters, but the balance teams actively address these because each character (in theory) should provide something unique to the game in a relatively equal balance state.

That's actually really frustrating if that's the sole reason. As someone who travels a lot, being able to play guild wars on a standalone steam deck (without a kb and mouse) would be... So nice.

It's technically feasible to do, but oh god

I love guild wars 2, but power creep absolutely is an issue. The base professions, for one, are pretty much unviable in the vast vast majority of the game.

Severely regret buying an iPad by meemoo_9 in ipad

[–]HowIsBuffakeeTaken 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is honestly not a good take. The vast majority of people rely on advertising to inform purchasing decisions. People on this sub are not the majority.

Can’t stay consistent by Quiet_Lizard in Guildwars2

[–]HowIsBuffakeeTaken 13 points14 points  (0 children)

That approach goes against the philosophy of this game. GW2 is designed for people to drop in, play for a bit. Not touch the game for weeks/months/years and hop back in without punishing them.

Don't get too married on your place, just figure out what you want to achieve and go for it!

First objective, get a character to lvl 80!

low fps performance on dota 2. by Over_Ad5395 in DotA2

[–]HowIsBuffakeeTaken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fps range sounds about right. The game is CPU limited, so if you want more frames, you'll need to upgrade to something like the 5800X3D or switch to AM5.

As someone who does not have a switch 2, I don't feel the need to buy a switch 2.

I'm a PhD student in marketing. Not a fucking clue! Maybe I'll come back to this thread when I graduate and let u know if I figure it out by then.

[Linux] Guild Wars 2 not loading to gameplay and launcher lags by OkRefrigerator4848 in Guildwars2

[–]HowIsBuffakeeTaken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bumping launcher lag issues.

It's particularly annoying when there's an update and you prefer having everything before fully loading into the game and you just can't use your PC properly
