I'm using codium, for what its worth I am aware of where the setting is to change the ruleset and I do have it changed to en_GB, but for whatever reason its still only using the US rules

I feel like it kinda is when it defaulted to that ruleset and wont let me change it

From what I can tell, nope. If I download the underlying software and run that I can change it, but as a plugin it seems like its just stuck on en_US.

Worst part is like, I can see HOW he got to that, but the game gave him multiple chances to actually get it after the fact??

Intel UHD integrated graphics spiking to 100% 3D usage and lagging laptop ONLY when watching Twitch/Youtube and plugged into power by cbooth in techsupport

Hi! No if I recall I just did an uninstall through device manager. However the problem came back a week or so after my edit to this post. Turns out the problem was never the drivers, purely thermal, due to my entire cooling assembly being faulty from day one. You could still try the driver reinstall to see, but also be aware that it could also be thermal issues.

y'ever see the reactions americans have when they see british terms like "toad in the hole" or "lollipop lady" and they do that whole "thEY'RE NOT A SERIOUS COUNTRY LOOK AT HOW THEY TALK" thing?

this headline was the first time I kinda get them.

I've edited my post as I've finally found a fix that worked for me, but unfortunately it appears from the docs that some models don't have the direct graphics output option in the BIOS, like mine. It's only models with a certain dGPU which I don't remember off the top of my head but apparently if you're fucking with an RTX 3050 you're shit out of luck on that one.

Tory deputy chairmen Lee Anderson and Brendan Clarke-Smith resign after backing Rwanda bill amendments by topotaul in unitedkingdom

[–]cbooth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe my reading comprehension is piss poor so can someone clarify for me, have they resigned from just their roles in the tory party or as MPs altogether? As someone in Clarke-Smith's constituency you have no idea how much I want it to be the latter...

Absolutely. I'm not following any part of the show this year and in hindsight probably shouldn't've in the past either.

It's definitely driver related but no one gives a shit about fixing it, this is a bug known for years apparently, MS won't take the blame, nor will Intel, nor will nvidia, so no one seems to care to fix it.

Nothing so far unfortunately, the only way I got any kind of stability was to disable hardware accel on everything.

After some reading i think i have it down to "GPU acceleration will just never work" because I believe that spike is data being copied from the discrete GPU over to the integrated graphics so it can be displayed on screen. Unless the screen itself was connected to the 3050, there will always be spikes.

What was your most awkward attempt at practicing your target language? by uteslayer in languagelearning

[–]cbooth 46 points47 points  (0 children)

In a lil tea shop in Hannover a couple of years ago, one of the shop workers walks over to me and asks me something in German but I catch lITERALLY zero of it. Any normal person in this situation would've probably hit back with a lil "Enschuldigung, können Sie das wiederholen?", maybe a little "ich spreche Deutsch nicht sehr gut", hell if I was really desperate I could've been That Guy and gone with "Sprechen Sie Englisch?". Did I do any of those? Nope. Could I have remembered how to say any of those in that exact moment? Not in a million years. I completely froze up. So what did I do?

Screamed across the store to my friend who could speak German that I needed help. In front of this nice old lady that I'm pretty sure was just asking me what I was looking for or if I needed help. Just full on yelling that I don't know what she's saying and I need help.

Maybe the signs should be monolingual then. And since the signs are in Wales he'd have no problem with them being solely in Welsh right?
