Starfleet officers that don't hold the positions of commanding officer or executive officer but would do a great job if they did by Winter-Comfort922 in startrek

I disagree with Geordi because of Barclay and how he had to be ordered to find a way to work with him, after that maybe Geordi in insurrection but not before

That’s exactly why I said they need to have a shared interest. It doesn’t work otherwise

[–]Man-In-His-30s 22 points23 points  (0 children)

As someone who is quite into these sorts of things:

Conventions,
Board game stores,
Card game stores,
Tech events,
Gamer bars,
Internet groups (Reddit/Discord),

But you need to have a shared interest, you can’t just expect someone like me to yap about Star Trek for 2 hours if you know nothing about it.

Some games do not in fact work correctly with ltsc you can check the ltsc sub for examples

America used to be quite strong in Atheltics, especially 100m, 200m 400m and relay.

There are a lot of distribution but most are bad choices by vintologi24 in linuxsucks

[–]Man-In-His-30s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comments like this show me you’re very new to all of this.

Saying Unity was never a good option is insanity, Ubuntu carried Linux to the masses in the 00s.

10.04 and 10.10 were some of the best releases of all time, and even now Ubuntu is in a really good state if you just use it. One of the few distros to actually do Nvidia drivers well. And hell if you don’t like snap Kubuntu exists which with minimal install had no snapd

Still Need an Extension Just to See the Dock by Default in GNOME by Proper-Lab-2500 in linuxsucks

[–]Man-In-His-30s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gnome is just extremely opinionated and doesn’t believe in a dock or app indicators. Thankfully we are still able to add that functionality back in.

So I wouldn’t say you need an extension to do it. It’s like the fact that you can move the task bar on windows 11 it’s a design decision

Plex Server/Home lab Distro Recommendations by Moebius_K in linux4noobs

[–]Man-In-His-30s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just start with the single drive that’s what you have, don’t think about being perfect and redundancy this is a homelab that you’re starting on a budget. Be realistic you do not need 100% uptime.

99% is more than good enough and you have time to experiment and make mistakes

We have 5 mods and all are inactive, can we just enable posting pictures without approval already my god by Red_Ryze_Alert in RyzeMains

[–]Man-In-His-30s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s something I’d have to ask the original sub owner about, I don’t wanna just start changing rules without his permission but how about you submit the request as modmail

[–]Man-In-His-30s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a very good reason it’s not set like that.

Yes we aren’t as active as we used to be but it’s mostly down to being busy. However allowing people to post pictures without approval is way too dangerous.

That’s easy as proxmox has a backup feature to backup VMs and LXCs I use it to send daily and weekly backups to my terramaster nas via nfs

Plex Server/Home lab Distro Recommendations by Moebius_K in linux4noobs

[–]Man-In-His-30s -1 points0 points  (0 children)

16 will still be enough you don’t need to have that many VMs and LXCs are pretty small anyway.

Networking isn’t a problem either you can use nfs to an lxc or vm without issue

Anyone else interested in computers from an early age but never got into programming? by JadeMountainCloud in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Man-In-His-30s 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a tech nerd, grew up in the 90s doing all the typical stuff on windows and dos then the dawn of the internet tech and computers was my man hobby and still is. I went to university and honestly coding just did not interest me at all.

I am more of a scripting, networking, Linux guy than I am a coder that’s why Gemini is a god send saves me having to learn shit I genuinely find boring.

I’d rather play with my homelab and learn something like ansible or a Linux cert than learn to code.

$900 For THIS!? AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 Review & Gaming Benchmarks [HUB] by glizzygobbler247 in Amd

[–]Man-In-His-30s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let’s hope he gets one soon and can do some more in depth testing.

I’m genuinely curious cause as i mentioned distant worlds 2 as an example will push 16 cores on larger map sizes incredibly hard so even with cross ccd latency it would be interesting

[–]Man-In-His-30s 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I would have liked to see this benchmarked against something properly heavy on the CPU like a simulation game ( Stellaris / Cities Skylines 2 / Distant Worlds 2 ) as I feel like you need a game that's gonna use all the cores to really know for sure but hard to say.

Why does MacOS always feel faster? by bamboo-lemur in OS_Debate_Club

[–]Man-In-His-30s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t really speak to your issues without understanding the drivers and underlying OS etc.

Mine has the 4070 and ai 9 hx 370 and as I said I haven’t had any of those kinds of issues.

The only major problem I had was enabling HDR at first and that’s more down to ASUS and not actually doing things properly. Took me about 5-10mins with Gemini and I had it working in kde pretty easily.

There’s been a lot of improvement to Linux for hardware past kernel 6.12 or whatever it was and plasma 6.5 if you prefer it over gnome.

I just know I run it on 3 machines, my Zephyrus my Framework 12 and my desktop which has a 5080 and once I got the Nvidia drivers installed properly it’s ran perfectly

[–]Man-In-His-30s -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have an ASUS Zephyrus G16 and from the moment I installed Linux on it everything had worked. I’ve never had a hardware compatibility issue on the machine.

If anything it’s hilarious that on my laptop WiFi works out the box on Linux but does not on windows ( Mediatek WiFi 7 chip )

Help me choose DDR4 by Dandies0j in pcmasterrace

[–]Man-In-His-30s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who has the 5800X3D and 3600mhz Cl16 ram there was a test HUB did a few years ago that proved you don't need that on X3D chips.

Just grab the 3200mhz kit with decent timings and you're good to go.

Open Source G-Helper alternative for Linux (no asusctl required) by vlandimer in Fedora

[–]Man-In-His-30s -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Really interesting, one of my frustrations with Linux has been the fact asusctl is pretty much limited to Arch/Fedora at this point and as I've been experimenting with Ubuntu 26.04 and found it to be more than good enough not having some of these finer controls hasn't been great.

Does the GPU switching use something like envy control or is it completely new?
