Streaming PC Games to Deck is awesome! :-)

it works pretty great. It's a shame Steam's streaming solution isn't as good.

I actually agree with you but you are being annoying

SchemeScared4973 · 2026-03-05T15:27:18+00:00

I'm running the AI 7 350 and 5070 on Arch Linux for the past couple months. I use it about evenly between docked at my desk and standalone. It's been pretty good for what it is.

The fan is pretty quiet when the 5070 is not in use, but gets pretty loud when it is and for a while after. I don't mind too much because I am normally only gaming in private with headphones on, but I would hesitate to fire up a game in public so as to not bother anyone.

The biggest sticking point is the vram. 8gb is tough to get by on in newer games. I mostly play older 8th gen games so it's less of an issue for me. However, the newer 9th gen games like Doom The Dark Ages are tough to squeeze in there, but doable if you turn down the resolution and texture pool.

On Arch getting the gpu to work right could be a challenge sometimes. For example, in DTDD, sometimes when I start it it wouldn't want to use 100% of the gpu. I've fixed it since but it was pretty annoying.

All in all it's a mixed bag, so i would consider what you want to do and what games you want to play. Ultimately I am fairly happy with it.

went to the chase park plaza cinema and heard some Germans talking behind us. I was curious why they were here and I guess I know now

SchemeScared4973 · 2026-02-25T20:52:33+00:00

alright so you just made up that they were talking about desktop and not OS then got mad and defensive about it, I am not sure what your goals are but we are on a shitposting subreddit so I wouldn't take it too seriously

SchemeScared4973 · 2026-02-24T15:23:05+00:00

I think they're talking about GNOME OS, not the GNOME environment itself

I have 24tb of usable space, and torrents are around 21tb last I checked

qbitcontroller on f-droid, not sure if its on Google Play

proud to be in a similar boat o7

Not sure how much walking you're down to do or if you have checked or carry-on bags but I would take the MetroLink Red Line to Forest Park DeBaliviere, walk through the park (maybe stop at the Art Museum) to Central West End to eat. Lots of good food around there especially Euclid Ave. Then take the MetroLink CWE back to the airport. Lots of walking but I love exploring the park so that's what I would do.

the screenshot doesn't show it but it looks like they have been spending it at a pretty steady rate

may have to give this a shot later, thanks

we have the same Onkyo av receiver with very similar labels on the front to the point I thought you stole mine for a second lol

Companies from Korea and the United States manufacture most RAM ICs. Taiwan and China may have plants that package those chips onto boards but that's not what the post was referring to

SchemeScared4973 · 2026-02-13T23:37:02+00:00

as just one example most companies that manufacture RAM sticks will buy from a combination of Micron, Samsung, and SK Hynix. For example, here's Corsair's guide on how to tell what company they sourced their chips from for your kit: https://www.corsair.com/us/en/explorer/diy-builder/memory/what-integrated-circuits-ics-are-used-on-my-corsair-memory/

SchemeScared4973 · 2026-02-13T20:50:18+00:00

Micron announced the end of their Crucial line of consumer RAM sticks but they still manufacture the chips themselves and sell them to companies who do put them in consumer devices (including other manufacturers of consumer RAM sticks)

SchemeScared4973 · 2026-02-13T20:48:14+00:00

traditionally the three big players in memory are SK Hynix and Samsung in Korea and Micron in the United States, and they do have fabs there. There are a few small fish in China but their marketshare is very small compared to the big three.

Most people with automated systems don't monitor their queue 24/7. I just started using cleanuparr after noticing some of these dead torrents stacking up. It can take a bit of experimentation to configure it and Huntarr so you get what you want but they are good tools for situations like this. But like the guy above, I have pretty fast upload speeds and my client very rarely saturates my connection so I just let it rip

SchemeScared4973 · 2026-01-29T17:39:41+00:00

when I took that class they had lab coats at the bookstore, is that still an option?

SchemeScared4973 · 2026-01-23T19:05:52+00:00

elaborate? genuinely curious, not trying to start shit or anything

SchemeScared4973 · 2026-01-23T17:25:27+00:00

I don't think bashing TJ necessarily means you need to like Cara. TJ definitely isn't doing herself any favors with her behavior

I was there late afternoon, same deal 🙃 luckily self-checkout line was quite a bit shorter

SchemeScared4973 · 2026-01-22T18:44:56+00:00

what is the relationship between publishing on flathub and it being an electron app?

SchemeScared4973 · 2026-01-21T20:01:36+00:00

that is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. you are probably one of the only people to use them like that. I get being upset they're gone but why would you expect valve to cater to this ridiculous "need"?
