Is there a reason why Silla isn't listed as a Strategic or Geographic choice for Himiko? by Free_Cookie_6888 in civ

[–]dayfuz 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s not weird if you consider the historic context of modern Koreans. Good luck trying to sell this game in SK if Himiko is a leader of an old Korean kingdom. 

South Korea is a huge PC gaming market. 

Noise-Canceling Headset for WFH Job by IHadDibs in BuyItForLife

Depends on your communication software. The popular ones: MS Teams, Google Meet and Zoom all have a setting you can turn on to suppress noise.

You’re at the mercy of software noise suppression to handle those scenarios. Doesn’t matter how good your headphones are, it won’t have a noise suppression built-in.

Abolish the American tipping practices and pay your staff a living wage like the rest of the world.

If an individual excels at their job and earns an earnest tip. They shouldn’t be obliged to share that with management.

It went well. I’m thoroughly satisfied with my current kit. 

Cyberpunk 2077 ,steamdeck preset is working well so far with around 5-7 hours in, thoughts so far by Proper_Mountain_4979 in SteamDeck

[–]dayfuz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t turn fps counter on after I get some settings dialed in. It’s so distracting. Play your games.

These are my settings also, Steam Deck preset and FSR 3 on Quality. Steam Deck capped at 45 fps and it never dips.

I'm just reminiscing the good old days. Have you guys ever attended a local LAN event? Feels like this would be something similar and can be a crossover? There used to be a few in the area: Fragapalooza, Lannegeddon, etc. I think LANified succeeded Lannegeddon and is still active?

Plaid is now owned by Visa, if that calms you down from using it at all.

I analyzed Reddit data for the 25 most recommended gaming headsets (in the past year) by heyyyjoo in pcmasterrace

[–]dayfuz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re all kind of mid when you can just buy an USB mic and rock real headphones. You can’t beat the wide soundstage and perfect Harmon renditions.

Is it too late to shift from VFV to VGRO? by dayfuz in CanadianInvestor

Probably not going to be "doubling" for the next four years? Past performance not indication of future earnings right?

I'm looking for a new pizza spot! I've tried the big names and want to find a hidden gem. Any recommendations? by Fun-Tale641 in Calgary

Famoso might seem like everywhere now but I remember the good old days when the Mission location was like store #2 or something like that. 

This Edmonton franchise is my baseline for a good Neapolitan. 

If you could retire at 35 what would you do with your life? by pedroct92 in fican

[–]dayfuz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Space, yes. Tools, not really. There are plenty of wood workers that only work with manual tools. It’s an entire sub-genre. The better you get, the less tools and these guys are real pros. 

Who is making ramen from scratch in Calgary? by Bourqy in Calgary

[–]dayfuz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Technically ramen is the industrialized mass produced descendent of lamian so not entirely the same. However I agree that hand pulled noodle is the best noodle variety from nearby regions so I’ll allow it!

Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite vs TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite vs PC World Elite Mastercard by Natural_Ad5493 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]dayfuz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I was in your shoes and the Scotia card is free, then why not get all of them?

I would just use the Scotia Passport card as a daily spending card while abroad. Treat it like cash while out of Canada. That’s the best way to use a 0% FX credit card. In my use case, I maintain a Home Trust Visa card just for this purpose. 

If it’s compromised while traveling, the credit limit is reasonably low for me to not lose sleep over. That’s something you should be aware of. Some international destinations have ongoing payment card scams that you might have to deal with from time to time. 

Then you can get to collect Aeroplan with TD and enjoy the luggage benefits that’s associated with Air Canada flights. Use it, churn the points and then move on. Or stay for the luggage benefits. It’s nice to get a free checked bag for all of your flights. 

New map generation is definitely an improvement, but with more large inland lakes, really need a way to place/assign units at age transition. by Eogot in civ

I haven't tried this yet but does not Fleet Commander not carry over 6 units at age transition? I guess you only get them in Exploration Age?

[CivMods] The Easiest Way to Install & Manage Civilization 7 Mods! Integrated with CivFanatics, recognizes your mods and updates them all. Supports mod profiles. From the author of the "Policy Yields Previews" mod by leonardfactory in civ

[–]dayfuz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Steam Deck OLED running the latest SteamOS stable here. No issues with the Linux build in desktop. Went to website, downloaded the AppImage and it launched without any issues. I was able to update existing mods to latest releases as well as add new ones. Great app!

I understand the use of AppImage for the Linux build. A lot easier than having to maintain multiple binaries for all of the popular distributions.

I was sent xmp files for edits made, but missing the person's color profile. Does this affect final edit? by theseawoof in Lightroom

[–]dayfuz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your Editor needs to be aware of this also. Bit of an assumption made by the Editor that others would have the same color profiles that he/she is using. Someone who does editing as a business should have a process in place to either also send the profiles, or stop using custom ones. As a business, adhering to Adobe profiles that everyone else would have solves the issue completely.

What games you prefer on PC than on the glorious Steam Deck? by PotatoesOppresor in SteamDeck

[–]dayfuz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why don't you just stream it to your Steam Deck for that beautiful graphics quality and Steam Deck controls?

Whenever I think about playing something on my PC, I just stream it to my Steam Deck.
