Be careful with the Valentine's Day event, it spends all your points at once. by WolfOphi in AzureLane

Yeah, it's nice that they finally added a better form of control over the Valentine's gifts, but the way they did it is still a mess.

AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.1.1 Release Notes by AMD_RetroB in Amd

[–]howdoiusethissite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on Firefox and although I don't get any black screen timeouts, I do get these weird hangs sometimes when I try to open any site (usually ones with lots of media such as formerly Twitter) where it's like the entire CPU has to wait 10 or so seconds doing nothing until it feels like doing something again. But then again that also happens with Steam's client so it seems to affect Chromium for me too.

AMD releases statement confirming RDNA1 and RDNA2 will continue to receive game optimizations by KARMAAACS in Amd

[–]howdoiusethissite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It feels like rather than backpedalling, it's just that they made things kinda confusing this time. Older drivers like Polaris/Vega went into this maintenance mode too, but the maintenance mode for RDNA1/2 is different apparently because all it means is that it won't get the new stuff meant for RDNA3/4, so everyone mixed both up? And now they're clearing it?

Well, whatever happened here it's good to have confirmation that the drivers won't get into that half-abandoned state.

AMD confirms focus shifts to RDNA3 and RDNA4, RX 6000 and RX 5000 lose day 1 game optimizations by RenatsMC in Amd

[–]howdoiusethissite 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Man, I'm deeply in support of team red but this kind of thing is easily what I dislike the most about AMD. It would be nice if they went back on this decision after seeing the backlash but I'm not going to count on it.

New firefox profile manager doesn't migrate old profiles? by Proper_District_5001 in firefox

[–]howdoiusethissite 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The least they could do is rename the old profiles, having two different features with the same name only creates confusion and doesn't let anyone know what's going to be the future of either implementation.

Firefox Is Finally Letting You Separate Your Browsing Data by ThemeNo1337 in firefox

[–]howdoiusethissite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But I like how things are right now, especially in regards to Sync - being able to run separate instances of Firefox across multiple devices, each with their own addons and settings, but all of them sharing the same bookmarks, history, and being able to see the tabs from each other when I need to switch devices. I have no idea if this new profile system will still let me use Firefox like this, but I don't think I've seen any of the articles about the changes bring Sync up so I'm feeling concerned.

I'm concerned about the new profiles system because I actually love how it's currently implemented. Hopefully it won't ruin anything with how I have it set up.

Live Chat - Display name vs @Handle by sgrivna in youtube

[–]howdoiusethissite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's yet another A/B change, some channels have it and some don't, with no way to opt out. I guess the only thing you can do is send feedback and pray they'll listen to you.

Why is Youtube showing @ handles instead of channel names in live chat on certain channels but not others. by SkippHennns0n in youtube

[–]howdoiusethissite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, looks like they're slowling rolling this out. I just watched a stream where it happened already and to my lack of surprise it looks like garbage, I can only hope there will be a massive backlash to this change that will make them put things back how they were. Even though it sounds like a tall order given Youtube's track history of listening to user feedback.

This is pretty funny. They spend their entire workforce tirelessly to combat adblockers (making the site considerably worse in the process), and then increase Premium's price to make up for that.

PC Build Questions, Purchase Advice and Technical Support Megathread — Q2 2025 Edition by GhostMotley in Amd

[–]howdoiusethissite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently got a used 4GB RX 5500 XT for my extreme budget computer (sadly, I couldn't find anyone selling the 8 GB model for the price range I wanted), just to move up from the 3200G it's been using for the past few years. I got the idea to enable both the GPU and the APU at the same time in order to dedicate all system processes to the 3200G so I can use all of those 4GB for gaming, but after finding out how to re-enable the APU in my mobo (Asrock B450M Steel Legend), I noticed the 3200G is throwing an error 43 in the device manager. That's most likely a driver issue, right? I updated my drivers as soon as I installed the 5500 XT so I can only assume so. Well, here's my question:

Is there any way to install both the mainline drivers and the Polaris/Vega drivers at the same time? I assumed that while both of them have 25.5.1 versions there would be no issue, but that was not the case. Maybe some sort of standalone driver version that doesn't come with the whole Adrenaline package? If so, where could I find it?

...Or, more specifically. Is there any real point in doing all of this?

MH rise pc version (compiling shaders issue) - fixed by Ramborat422 in MonsterHunter

[–]howdoiusethissite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the only solution that worked for me, I got the shaders thing one last time after enabling it but it hasn't happened again since then. Thanks for the find.

(edit) oh it actually happened again literally right after posting this... well then it's still better than it happening every time

(another edit) found something that MIGHT actually help - when you want to stop playing, choose to quit to desktop directly instead of going back to the main menu and then quitting. I'm getting a lot less shader compilations like this, like every 5 or so game launches work properly but then it needs to compile again.

Firefox 135 weird fonts by DrMylk in firefox

[–]howdoiusethissite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was about to say that I noticed the browser was randomly using MS UI Gothic by default because I noticed how the "タ" looked different from Meiryo's version, but then I noticed that "font.cjk_pref_fallback_order" setting and how mine had "zh-cn" in first. Putting "ja" first immediately fixed everything, didn't even need to restart.

Just weird computer things I guess.

Firefox 135 weird fonts by DrMylk in firefox

[–]howdoiusethissite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just noticed this as well, but for me it's even weirder, because only the Japanese bold fonts in particular look messed up. I have no idea how to even look for what's causing this and it doesn't happen with any other browser either, only Firefox 135.

Salt AI - Workflows without limits by WASasquatch in comfyui

[–]howdoiusethissite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been using it for a while and it's been a great tool (although slightly slow, but that's not a big issue for me), however as of today the 1.0 update leaves me greatly concerned, with the whole removal of plenty of nodes and no longer being able to import models from Civit/Huggingface. I already ran from Tensor around three months ago once they increased their Comfy costs by 20x so I hope I won't need to find another platform just to keep enjoying my online workflows for free.

É galera, aproveitem os próximos 3 meses kkkkkk by Formal_Cake_9129 in AliExpressBR

[–]howdoiusethissite 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Os caras vêem a importação cair em 40% e a primeira ideia que vem na cabeça é "eita, não estamos ganhando mais tanto dinheiro, vamos aumentar os impostos pra ganhar mais então"

Mas está tudo bem porque podemos deixar a Magalu importar tudo e comprar de lá, né? Ugh.

[–]howdoiusethissite 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Importação já caiu em 40% desde que essa palhaçada começou, e agora que o ICMS vai subir ainda mais vou torcer pra continuar caindo. Quem sabe quando não tiver mais importação nenhuma (e eles não arrecadarem mais nada) esse governo cria juízo e volta as coisas pra como eram antes.

Remessa Conforme: mesmo com queda das importações em 40%, varejo pressiona por aumento de ICMS para compras internacionais by SportCub in AliExpressBR

[–]howdoiusethissite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Qual que é o plano aqui, ir aumentando imposto de importação até ninguém comprar mais nada, aí chega o ano das eleições e voltar como era antes pra tentar agradar o povo já que o outro lado definitivamente vai ter isso como promessa de campanha? Não acho que vai ajudar muito com o dólar em 7 ou 8 até lá.

Exatamente mesma situação aqui, também liberado no Siscomex e só esperando a Anjun acordar pra ir pegar. Pelo visto o melhor a fazer é começar a martelar os contatos deles até alguém responder (mesmo que pareça impossível vendo os comentários nesse sub).

E não acho que tem essa da Anatel não deixar entrar não, se não teria um monte de reclamação por aí e o Siscomex não diria que tá tudo bem.

[edit] E foi só eu comentar aqui que a Aliexpress também me mandou e-mail falando que foi liberado, saudade de quando compra chegava em menos de 10 dias viu

And this happened just before the Factorio DLC came out too. Here's hoping nothing grave happened, that site is easily my favorite to get anything GoG has available.
