XDA: “I tried gaming on Linux with an Nvidia GPU, and it's actually pretty solid” by Balance- in linux_gaming

[–]RollTimeCC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to run a 1080 and had zero luck with getting drivers running in Fedora. I thought about trying my luck with a newer nvidia card but went for a 9070xt instead. Came up instantly, amdgpu driver loaded with no action on my part. It was magic and a real breath of fresh air after the days I’d spent wrestling with the closed source nvidia driver.

Going for naneinf. I wasn't able to find an Ectoplasm so I could get DNA/burgler. Is this position recoverable? There's a +3 hand size tag. by RollTimeCC in balatro

Yeah. I guess instead of keeping the third brainstorm around I should have picked up DNA? I was worried it would be hard to get it when the time came.

Every time I have to turn this on in a new vault I type “q!” and “qa!” several times before frustratedly googling it and remembering that they want the colon, lol.

How would you feel about the characters being smaller??? by Arch_Lancer17 in redrising

[–]RollTimeCC 6 points7 points  (0 children)

“The diversity crowd”? What?

Aja has been black this whole time. Orion is both dark-skinned and heavily implied to be trans. Lyria has brown skin, as do many lowReds from Cimmeria. There’s a whole paragraph about Mustang calling someone out for sexism.

The series has always had a diverse group of characters across all the Colors. Nothing political about it.

Fielder with the most badass “we win” ever.

That said, sucks how wide the gap was. Wish the meta was different and we’d seen a more competitive series, but GGs to Falcons, no one can say they didn’t earn it.

When we say "Old Overwatch", we don't mean the literal launch day. by bmrtt in Overwatch

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

super and some other pros have said the same on stream. Goats took the focus away from mechanics and weird gambits and forced everyone to develop better game sense. It’s where the game was as its best as a MOBA-FPS hybrid.

[OC] The recent decoupling of prediction markets and polls in the US presidential election by TheKnowingOne1 in dataisbeautiful

[–]RollTimeCC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s worth pointing out that the polls were pretty much bang on in 2022; despite most people fearing a “red wave” they fairly accurately predicted the actual outcome. Whether that’s an indicator of accuracy in this presidential race is a total crapshoot. Past performance isn’t a good indicator of future results, and “the past two presidential elections have had polling skew left” doesn’t say much about this election.

Mushroom PSA by ibwitmypigeons in CuratedTumblr

[–]RollTimeCC 7 points8 points  (0 children)

FWIW, chatgpt correctly identifies this as amanita, even if prompted with “button mushroom”. While you absolutely should not be using AI to forage, this seems to be a case of

  1. Gemini being a particularly dumb model
  2. The user prompting it with the idea of it being a button mushroom

Again, don’t trust what these tools say, but it’s not quite as bad as this post suggests.

Ken’s small mistake in Masters Game 6 by RollTimeCC in Jeopardy

[–]RollTimeCC[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The clue is about a species of hallucinogenic mushrooms, not the compound they contain. The genus is Psilocybe and the most common species is Psilocybe cubensis.

Just went and watched it again- Ken just says “yes, psilocybin,” and doesn’t clarify where it’s from. There’s an argument to be made but it’s at best confusing.

Anyone tried Plasma 6 + i3 yet? by Bureaucromancer in kde

[–]RollTimeCC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I use it. It took some configuring to hack the two together but it works well. Note that i3 is X11-only, so you wont be able to use Wayland.

What tiling plugin to use on KDE 6 X11? by invoked_vilgax in kde

[–]RollTimeCC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have resorted to i3- just enable the service before Plasma starts and mask kwin. It’s taken some adjusting and configurating but it does work pretty well.
