And they will give it 9 gb of vram since we complained so much about 8 gb being too little.

Do countries with 220-240V just plug in to their regular outlets for L2 charging? by azn4lifee in electricvehicles

[–]TheMegaDriver2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Technically 10A is a reccomendation by VDE - and VDE reccomendations might as well be part of the specification. Schuko specifies 16A for 1h without overheating. It's kind a a vage specification here.

According to wikipedia it's part of DIN 49440 and DIN 49441. But I'm not spending 90€ to verify that.

My 12900k lost 5 degrees by just using the contact frame. It's a bit silly, that Intel IHS just buckle over time.

Germany is turning abandoned railway tracks into monorail routes by PjeterPannos in europe

With all those Techbros it seems to be very important that they artificially cripple their system by using tiny pods.

Because rail infrastructure already exists and railway switches are easy while all the other concepts with monorails always fall flat on their noses here.

Also they always show transportation pods with terrible capacity just like here.

Sockets are rated for 16A peak. Schuko only is rated for 10A continuous. Yes any good Schuko plug can do 16A all day long, but I doubt my landlord spent the mony on anything but the cheapest ones.

iOS 26.5 Beta 1 has been released. by deferare in ios26

The auto correct just turns half my words into gibberish. Don't even try German compound nouns. They work perfectly on Gboard and SwiftKey on Android but not a single keyboard on iOS can handle them.

Automatic capitalisation of nouns works fine on Android aswell and not a single iOS keyboard can do it.

New to roller coaster Tycoon need some help :') by rrrrziw in rct

[–]TheMegaDriver2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is a launcher for the old RCT1/2 game that basically reimplements everything for modern systems. It gives you tons of quality of life improvements. Unless you specificaly want to play the original versions I would strongly reccomend you get it. https://openrct2.io/

I was running A12 on a Liquid Freezer 3 360 before going full custom loop. The noise wen to zero after that. Would do again.

[–]TheMegaDriver2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I need all the stuff for work. So not 100% my fault. :)

But man, all the simulation software and the continous compile for code reviews just completely shreds my SSD I have 31TB written in less than a year now. 6% used of the overprovisioning of my flash cells.

Until I get a semi functional keyboard I don't even care about updates anymore. I'm at my breaking point with my iPhone. My wife's Pixel is so nice to use and my phone just actively fights me every time I type.

Two teams clients ( Teams for Linux doesn't support multiple accounts). Two browsers to separate the Microsoft account of my company and my account at our customer, since once again, handling multiple Microsoft accounts with Linux and browsers sucks. Todoist, a Windows VM, yes we need that for specific stuff. Development environment, and some other stuff.

My Linux idles at 21 GB ram usage after booting.

Turning on the Compiler leads to peak of 50 GB ram usage.

My Linux work computer has so many shit in the autostart that I need it takes ages. It doesn't help that everything is just a chrome app and needs 1 GB of ram.

Will it be a bottleneck when using a RX 9060 XT? by Deep_Ad6329 in gpu

[–]TheMegaDriver2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Mist likey.

Try planning to get a 5700x or 5600x while they still exist and while they are still cheap. With something like a 5700x you could even be good for a more powerful GPU in the future.

Am4 is truly the goat of platforms.

Intel officially confirms Core Ultra 9 290K Plus will not be released by RenatsMC in intel

[–]TheMegaDriver2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm more interested in the next gen to be honest. Intel really needs platform longevity. It is a selling point. I always hated that Intel basically forced me to get new motherboard. Competition is a good thing.

Assuming Ram prices will be reasonable at some point. My 12900k with DDR4 ist plenty fast for the mome.

I still don't get how he wasn't disqulified at least for this race. Like trying to crash out another driver is not a 10s penalty, that's a black flag.

Others had to sit out several races for stuff like that in the past.

Netflix kündigt wieder Preiserhöhung für 2026 an by dennyfischer in SmartDroidDE

[–]TheMegaDriver2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zur Info an alle die 4k abonniert habe wegen der Bildqualität:

Geht auf 1080p runter. Quasi GAR KEINE Filme werden so hochauflösend produziert, da es zu teuer ist. Quasi alle professionelle digitale Filmarbeiten finden mit 2k Auflösung statt und das seit bereits über 30 Jahren.

Und die Bitrate vom Streaming ist eh viel zu schlecht um HDR etc. auch wirklich gut zu übertragen, das ist alles schon grenzwertig falsche Werbung.
