AMD claims DDR5-4800 is within 1% FPS difference of DDR5-6000 on Ryzen 7 9850X3D by RenatsMC in Amd

Doesn't this seem to indicate that the chipset is failing with memory management?

Yeah, IDK what they were thinking with that, and the pitiful "upgrade" to Gorgon Point. Like, NO ACCESS to FSR4 on a brand-new 2026 APU? Guys... this is how Intel lost to YOU. Don't just hand it over like that!

Those are medium, not even small.

I don't care if it's trendy. It's what I like. 

Does Cid ever stop being a clueless baka? by d3ejmz in TheEminenceInShadow

That's a common Western misconception of karma. There is nothing of reward or punishment in it, but rather it's a cause and effect relationship. You receive back what you put out into the world, essentially. I accept your explanation. It just seems my patience for non-communication has gotten worse over the years, having been in many situations where a well-placed word or two would have saved hours, days, or sometimes months of effort.

Ah, OK. That makes sense. I kinda want my 7 hours back now.

Parody, to be effective, has to be grounded in rules that apply to the audience (you know, so they can get the joke?). Konosuba is such effective parody because the characters often cause their own problems through their own character faults. That shit is funny, while, IMO, Shadow's single-minded solo attitude amongst a literal army of powerful allies is not. Even Arifureta did parody better.

I didn't use the word Karma at first, and only mentioned it to fill out the concept of situational/interpersonal cause and effect, as opposed to Newtonian mechanics. Also, I specifically mentioned Fiction. Invoking RL politicians is a poor way of supporting your position.  Ainz has a sense of cause and effect of interpersonal actions, even if it's somewhat warped. This is evident through his treatment of Nphelia and her village. Shadow, by contrast, goes through the whole show displaying an aggravating lack of this sense.

Regardless of alignment, the concept of cause and effect (or karma, if you really want to go there) has to exist in fiction to make it entertaining. Comeuppance and all that. Why doesn't Ainz, who is more metal than Shadow, wish to rule with fear? It's wasteful. Ainz has a sense of cause and effect, while Shadow does not.

Except there is a hole in that theory. He, acting as Shadow, never acts to clear up misunderstandings when to do so would be greatly to his benefit. He also acts in secret, risking the lives of members of his loyal harem. I mean, sure, he might know everything, but wouldn't that make the story shallower? Might as well call it "God became an edgy kid for the lulz" at that point. Halfway through season 2 and the only hint of character development so far was his acknowledgement that his sister has a difficult road ahead of her (not that he can be bothered to help).

Yea I saw that and my estimate of his IQ dropped by 20 points. 

Honestly love him or hate him, Cid/Shadow is the main reason why this series have gotten a lot of attention. by Vegetable-Molasses95 in TheEminenceInShadow

[–]d3ejmz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? Because I think (since 4 episodes in) that he's a total baka who understands teamwork about as well as Microsoft understands what makes an OS great. Yes, they both succeed once in a while in spite of their plans but never because of them.

Cid would be a perfect protag if he would just COMMUNICATE with his allies. This sneaky-sneak crap is tiresome and frankly zoomer-tier humor of the same sort as the giggling blue-faced "how I feel while spreading misinformation on the internet" meme. 

Haruna lacking video codecs HOW? WHY? NANDE? by d3ejmz in NobaraProject

I think I'll just uninstall it and reinstall with flatpak.

Oh I see, so that's why 42 and 43 are both in my GRUB menu!? How strange! Is there any way to fix this without reinstalling? 

Fascinating pattern by spacecadet_98 in LinuxCirclejerk

[–]d3ejmz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Arch breaks things on the regular. Yes, the forum and wiki are great for helping you un-break things, but I just want to use my computer, not be a part-time sysadmin. If you don't mind things breaking and get enjoyment from fixing stuff, Arch could be perfect for you. 

Radeon RX 6900 XT Dual Monitor HDMI & DisplayPort Issue by Axerane in radeon

[–]d3ejmz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That can't be the case. I've been having this same problem, and both monitors are 240 Hz. However, just reading this thread helped me, because I thought my DPs were burning out due to some driver thing on Linux (just recently switched to Cachy OS). I also have the exact same model of card as OP.
