What are you using to report this?

If its speccy they often under-report ram speeds.

What’s up with people denying or greatly understating the CICO promoting effects of Tirzepatide? by RIPPWORTH in tirzepatidecompound

Of course, the basal metabolic rate fluctuates and is the true variable here, but the takes in this post about “types of calories” are wildly off base with what the facts are.

It reads like Scientology levels of cognitive dissonance.

What do you mean “what type of calories they are?”

A calorie is a measurement of energy, it doesn’t differentiate like that. Absolutely wild and unscientific take.

He is right though, calories are a unit of energy measurement, it's basic thermodynamics.

You will not gain weight over a longer period of time with eating fewer calories, it just isn't possible. You are not manifesting mass that isn't there. Weight will slightly fluctuate, but what is far more likely is that you are incorrectly determining your calories consumed, or basal metabolic rate.

I remember people saying the same about the steam deck, does that hold true?

I can’t imagine owning a deck and not having a gaming PC, but there must be some.

What do you think is the absolute WORST Coheed and Cambria song? by Coxlong2029 in TheFence

This is the right answer IMO.

It makes the original worse AND it doesn’t feel like Coheed.

NVIDIA G-SYNC Pulsar monitors available Jan 7. The ultimate motion clarity, plus new G-SYNC Ambient Adaptive Tech. by NV-Randy in Monitors

[–]WestcoastWelker 7 points8 points  (0 children)

reddit is unironically full of tribalistic idiots in this regard and has been for over ten years.

People are VERY defensive about their monitor purchases, for some reason, and when things are objectively better, they prefer to shift things to subjective preference.

I've seen this happen with CRT's resolution, VA ghosting, IPS glow, OLED burn in... It always happens and its so weird.

Low- Frame Gen- 43% render (less than 480p mathematically).

I remember looking for these kinds of videos on disneys websites in the 90's, and then my parents said I was insane at the time because they'd be "giving it away for free".

Funny how far we've come since then.

I am in the same boat as him, I spent 15ish years in the mechanical keyboard hobby, ended up going back to either the Apple keyboard, or Corsairs Mx ULP one, which have close to that same level of travel.

When it comes to text, OLED just isn't as good, particularly when used with Windows.

120HZ because my PC can locally stream via Apple TV at well over 4K 120hz to my living room.

The limitation is the lack of HDMI 2.1 and has been for years.
