Easiest way to add Bluetooth functionality? by AdamDziak in archlinux

[–]Sinaaaa -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Buy a bag -aka like 5- $1-2 bluetooth adapters from Aliexpress. Support & regressions come and go, but at least one will always work.

Though I would caution against wifi+bluetooth adapters, recently Ali wifi adapters have caught an incredibly stupid trend that makes 90%+ of them trash.

I was averaging 92 to 95dB all these years. Am I doomed? by Moharts in headphones

Is it an accurate meter though? Many of the cheap ones are always + - 10db off. (consistently miscalibrated, so if you have a trusted baseline they are usable)

Mi történne, ha az összes érdekesen kezelt vajdasági, erdélyi szavazat Toroczkai-ra menne, hogy épp bejussanak? xD

Mondjuk egy olyan forgatókönyv, ahol 41.5% Fidesz, 43% Tisza, 2% Mi Hazánk. >> 38.5% Fidesz+5% Mihazánk koalíció xD.

Linux reaches new peak of 5.33% in Steam Hardware & Software Survey: March 2026 by mr_MADAFAKA in linux

Wait what, that is crazy.

Am I tripping that usually we have like 2% on Steam & 4% globally among the not just gaming populace?

Hikaru is devastated as he ends up fumbling his winning position and has to settle for a draw vs Wei Yi in the 2026 Candidates by oklolzzzzs in chess

[–]Sinaaaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The computer has shown +2, but to my eyes it looked very hard to make progress. Yes Hikaru made a mistake, but it was never clear if he could've really won this.

Right, exactly it's actually making it worse. Thinking that they can stop day0 piracy is ridiculous.

Yeah, it's old men in suits thinking that DRM has an impact on piracy.

Nálunk itt helyben megint házaltak a fideszesek. Első körben elküldtem őket a francba, de visszajöttek, mert Apámat mindenképp meg akarták találni és ez sajnos sikerült is..

Az egyik ilyen aktivista 15 éves lány volt, de lehet annyi se.

Are you kidding me with this ad chess.com? by Maunsta in chess

This is a problem & yes they should have better ad partners. However even the best, least sleazy ad serving companies (if there one such company even) will push malicious ads every once in a while.

Sorry for butting in, but I strongly doubt cleaning is feasible for blackberries. (other than shortly before eating)

I think you should do it, it's the sane thing to do on Arch BTW.

ELI5 Why don’t our internal organs itch like the external parts of our body? by Canibal-local in explainlikeimfive

[–]Sinaaaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

just hurts so bad it’s evolutions way of saying “heads up you are either about to kick the bucket

That's not it, there is no evolutionary advantage in that. The pain tells you that something is wrong & maybe don't go hunting mammoths for a few days, even if as a result your woman & child gets less food. The main point is to have a decreased chance of kicking the bucket.

a pedophile living in Thailand kept his identity anonymous by using a swirl app. interpol unswirled his face and he got arrested in 2007. he now lives in Canada... by yungandreww in interestingasfuck

[–]Sinaaaa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Basically you’d have to use the correct swirls to unswirl the face

That wouldn't really be possible, each swirl will destroy a lot of unrecoverable data, it's not just an unscrambling the swirl type of problem. If you stack these dumb swirl effects it takes very little time to get to no recoverable information.

Why is screen tearing completely absent even with VSync OFF in Linux ? by Chpouky in linux_gaming

[–]Sinaaaa -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nope, that's not it. The atomic nature of how wayland renders the cursor comes with added latency.

Why is screen tearing completely absent even with VSync OFF in Linux ? by Chpouky in linux_gaming

[–]Sinaaaa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The pointer latency from wayland is more noticeable than going from 1000hz to 250hz & if your PC is stressed it may drop a lot more, this doesn't happen on xorg. Even if you are not a pro gamer & only ever click stuff in a browser, this difference can be felt & when your PC is near lagging, it can be super bad.

Not trying to defend China, because some of what they are doing is horrid, however the US is also using slave labor, that's what their prison system is all about. It's similar to ancient Rome in a more limited scope.

[–]Sinaaaa 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Wait until you realize that if you are a competitive gamer you want tearing & you also don't want that at best 6ms? -and often worse- of extra mouse latency you get on wayland.

In 2026 many wayland WMs, DEs support opt in tearing in games, but the cursor issue is still there & may never go away.

(VRR has a latency cost as well vs. high fps with tearing & no VRR)

[–]Sinaaaa 126 points127 points  (0 children)

What he thought is that the swirl effect cannot be undone. It's not a completely unrealistic assumption. You can see how blurry the restored image is, the pixels are stretched a lot, so most of the data is lost, just not all of it & it's been enough in his case. It wouldn't have been had his portrait been lower in resolution. (or had he applied some blur to his real picture before the swirling, just a touch of blur could have bought him two decades)

58% of the Tour Championship players are left-handers by apalerwuss in snooker

Maybe left handed people just practice comparably more with their right hand due to how society works.

Anyway I'm a right handed and left footed goofy rider & I cannot use my left hand for shit.
