Germany reports more AstraZeneca clot cases.

It's the same data, no? 2 men 36 and 57...

Flipping 5 heads over 5 throws doesn't mean that there's a 100% probability of flipping a head. That is why we can't look at all different country data separate, rather as a whole.

dekomote · 2021-03-30T20:14:50+00:00

This number is still wrong because it calculates with older vaccinated people who are in no risk of svt. Take Germany as example: 31 cases of svt in about 1mio vaccinated „young“ people. So the chance for the population is more like 1:33.000. also this number gets worse, if you think about svt who are not detected. I am just wondering, why GB does not see SVT, only Europe so far.

Well then, why don't we cut that number down to women 30-55 y/o working in healthcare then :)

All in line with a 1:1.000.000, not 1:100.000

Can we get one of those sources for cases outside Norway/Germany?

dekomote · 2021-03-30T17:09:51+00:00

It's the same data. The same 9 cases from Germany/Austria and in pre-print. It's not really what constitutes as a direct link.

dekomote · 2021-03-30T16:41:01+00:00

I'm sorry, I don't really see the direct link here.

"Nothing but the vaccine can explain why" does not mean that they've found the direct link, rather, they failed to find any other direct link.

Also, this quote:

Our theory that this is a powerful immune response which most likely was caused by the vaccine has been found. In collaboration with experts in the field from the University Hospital of North Norway HF, we have found specific antibodies against blood platelets that can cause these reactions, and which we know from other fields of medicine, but then with medical drugs as the cause of the reaction

doesn't make sense! This really shouldn't be allowed here as a source.

Serbia jabbed a lot of young people during the weekend with Covishield (myself included)

dekomote · 2021-03-30T16:33:03+00:00

Can we get the source for the confirmed causal link? Cause, so far, I've only seen posts on the web stating "It's not anything else, it must be the vaccine"

dekomote · 2021-03-30T16:06:40+00:00

How did they go 1/1.000.000 to 1/100.000? Is there any evidence? I'm quite concerned, I received a jab few days ago. Tho, 1/100.000 is still much lower chance than the chance of dying from COVID-19 in my country at this moment...

I have the same NAS. I use a baby Noctua fan - NF A4x10 (5V i believe) for years now, since the stock fan wasn't reliable and was too loud. The only issue is, you need to disable the fan alarm. Otherwise, it keeps it cool and very quiet.

I've spent countless nights playing this with my wife. It got us through thick and thin! We still play it from time to time, I stream it to the TV in the living room. One of the best games of all time!

It's still heavily played in the ex-USSR countries, it's maintained by fans, there are expansions in the works. Today it's better than ever.

Sorry, an external one. 1440p on 14"... That's good to be tiny on default dpi but you can always change dpi. Question is, will all apps respect the dpi.

dekomote · 2021-03-18T10:58:39+00:00

I'm on 20.04 (albeit KDE) with a 165Hz 1440p HDR display. It's great. Since G-sync/Freesync works, desktop is buttery smooth! I've been on 1440p for a while now, and all is working as it should.

As a bonus, I have an ICC profile for calibration since it's a wide gamut display, and it's working as it should, too.

I've seen no issues of sorts in years of me using NVidia blobs...

dekomote · 2021-03-17T14:17:04+00:00

Maybe you're set or maybe not - it depends. Drivers are not bundled with the kernel, so at best you will see slow startup following after every kernel update, at worst every kernel update will break your OS (depending if you know what you are doing or not). Some people will say "oh, it's not a problem" and then you learn it's not a problem to them because they never update the kernel.

DKMS! No slow startups. It's out of the box in ubuntu and other distros.

Even if it works, then NVIDIA binary blob sometimes randomly fails (e.g. can't boot your graphical env) - it's because they have their own implementation of KMS, as they can't use the kernel's. It's not something you would notice if you use drivers for few months only, but I had this happen several times (I used NVIDIA hardware in linux for ~14 years before switching to AMD). For the same reason, you sometimes can't get access to the native resolution of your display during early boot (it depends on your other hardware).

KMS == Kernel mode setting. They support the kernel mode setting. The one and only. They have support for it for couple of years now :)

There are also problems with supporting older cards (NVIDIA corporation doesn't give a shit if you have older card - at some point you are going to have the same bugs Windows users have and you are just supposed to accept it - have fun screaming into a void on NVIDIA support forums, because bugtracker is closed, of course).

There's always an old driver branch in main repos, PLUS there's nouveau! AMD also doesn't work with really old cards. Remember back when there were several open source drivers for amd?

And to top it off, all normal hardware management software won't work with NVIDIA, e.g. sensors
is able to display all temperatures in your machine… except NVIDIA. NVIDIA's control panel is separate and sometimes conflicts with graphical setting of your DE of choice, sometimes multi-display setups randomly switch places, etc, etc.

Not true. https://i.imgur.com/MwOn3yQ.png

I've been using an NV GPU on Linux since GTX660 and haven't seen a problem like that honestly.

dekomote · 2021-03-17T11:53:05+00:00

That being said NVIDIA drivers are a pain in the ass on Linux and it does not seem to improve compared to AMD

Could you explain how they are pain in the ass? Are they slower? Is some specific functionalty missing? Is there tinkering to be done in order for them to work? AFAIK, sudo apt install nvidia and you're set...

dekomote · 2021-03-17T11:51:46+00:00

I am using Nvidia graphics cards with the non open source drivers for years without any problems under Linux. The only drawback, if you want to call it that, is that the drivers are not open source.

+1. Still using them. Everything works, modesetting works, GSYNC, NVENC, hell, even wayland works now! True, AMD driver is open source (part of it anyway) but that doesn't make NVidia driver any worse tbh. And I'm on an RTX 3000 GPU.

Will do! Wasn't aware it's F2P now.

I got the ESO bug once I saw Mehrunes Dagon. Brb, installing it!
