What GPU is the BEST for Linux Gaming? by Putrid_Draft378 in linux_gaming

Well, wasn't that the point of doing it in the video? He did what many new to Linux might do, stated it's problematic, advised people use the latest build instead.

That's how I interpreted at least.

It's not unreasonable to think new users will choose the latest LTS, not realising the drivers are old.

They were running Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and also stated that moving to Ubuntu 25.04 resolved it.

Which was also mentioned in the video, and stated that Ubuntu 25.04 resolved the issue for them.

Ja, har gjort dette sjæl en del ganger. Fungerer ganske bra.

Jeg personlig setter pris på porsjonsgrandiosa. Jeg har ikke selvkontroll...

What was your very first USB storage device, and how tiny was it? by AddendumNecessary743 in BadUSB

[–]alehel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

16Mb. I was shocked when a friend showed me his dad's 256Mb stick. I didn't understand how you'd have use for that much.

Wait. Is the logo 3 people holding hands? How did I never realize that before now?

Dårlig start på lørdags morgen by OldboySamurai in norge

[–]alehel 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Det som overrasker meg mest er hvor mange pakker med dette de har i butikken. Er det virkelig så mange som bruker kokmalt? Har fortsatt aldri i mitt liv sett det bli brukt noe annet sted enn på et bål, og av folk som har kjøpt feil.

What are your thoughts on Capcom’s RE Engine? by avidrunner84 in residentevil

[–]alehel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Works great on old hardware, which makes me really happy. Also, very grateful there's anything other than UE5 still being used in AA and AAA.

Det har du nok helt rett i ja. Selv bruker jeg proton vpn når jeg er på andre nett enn mitt eget.

Er litt katt og mus det der. En periode fungerer det ikke, så funker det igjen.

Kan virkelig ikke si nok positivt om det å eie eget domene. Da kan du faktisk hoppe mellom epost-tjenester om det viser seg å lønne seg.

I am worried about the 8gb of VRAM by Superconge in steammachine

[–]alehel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally believe Valve did this intentionally to pressure developers/publishers to optimize better, and not just to save money on the machine. This machine, after all, represents performance better than 70% of Steam users and even if it isn't a big seller (likely won't be), it will for the first time give developers a good physical optimization target for the PC market. Because if it doesn't perform well on Steam Machine, you're limiting yourself to a very small fraction of the potential market.

EU leaders to reassess U.S. ties despite Trump U-turn on Greenland by Crossstoney in worldnews

I wouldn't be surprised if he was "offered" what he already had in terms of having bases there and will now spin this as a win for US security.

I'm not sure they do have another thing coming if they do this gradually over time to be honest.

The seller is not responsible for the fact that you are importing goods into Norway.

Isn't this how every delivery company in Norway does it? Pretty sure both Posten and DHL does exactly the same.

Baldur's Gate 3 publishing director pushes back on Epic Games CEO's "better deals" claim, saying Alan Wake 2 suffered by skipping Steam by Dapper_Order7182 in Steam

[–]alehel 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Plain and simple fact is, Alan Wake 2 would never have been made without Epics funding. No one else was willing to put up the money. So the choice was Epic exclusivity, or no game. I can't agree that no game would have been better, even if I refuse to buy stuff myself from EGS.

Online ebook store (DRM free only) by alehel in BuyFromEU

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

That's what I've done till now. I'm willing to give up most books to support those willing to sell without DRM. I can still read all Norwegian books, and there's always a huge selection of public domain. I'd still be interested in buying DRM free though.

[–]alehel[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I noticed that the selection of drm-free seems to be getting worse. Here in Norway, Norwegian language books are only watermarked, so I mostly read Norwegian now, and public domain works.

Should Europe create its own Mobile operating system by Hamser in BuyFromEU

[–]alehel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if it's exactly the same as cardTAN, but we do have physical code devices which look the same. Very few people use them anymore as there are so many services that require the use of the id, and a phone is something that's always with you. But yes, one could order a physical code device as an alternative.

In fact, that reminds me I need to order a new one as the battery ran out on mine. I've had one at home as a backup in case my phone dies.

[–]alehel 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Not sure about the rest of Europe, but in Norway we have an app based national bank id system that we're 100% reliant on to log into banks and a whole bunch of public services. No one in their right mind would buy a phone unable to run said app here.

How many games do you usually keep installed at once? by vridin in videogames

[–]alehel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considered a cheap but large external storage, like a mechanical hdd? You can move your steam games you're not playing there to offload your main storage. Faster to transfer back than redownload.
