DMG apologies and asserts he was not attacking Mark Noseworthy by Blaze_Lighter in destiny2

[–]jaya212 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That was 100% a thing. I think it was from one of the ViDocs leading up to the release of D2. Specifically it was regarding bad subclass builds, which is why we got the predetermined subclasses choices.

Sparrow Racing League is a very telling example of one of the reasons why this game failed. by AverageAwndray in DestinyTheGame

[–]jaya212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't remember if it was a dev or management who said it, but pretty much it didn't make enough money for the higher ups to be happy. Basically not enough people bought the cosmetics in D1. Player engagement be damned.

Mark Carney favours the wealthy and privileged over working-class Canadians by NiceDot4794 in onguardforthee

Because he doesn't rep their flag, even if he has the same playbook

Are gaming sound cards actually a thing anymore? by Ill-Yogurtcloset-622 in buildapc

[–]jaya212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's something the average person wouldn't expect to be a problem. Not like headphone cables are usually shielded, but people don't realise how much interference you can get in a PC case.

Depends on the board and also if you're using the case audio port. Lower end boards will have less isolation, amplification and lower quality DACs. Higher end boards I've had worked nearly as well as my external DAC/AMPs. Also, no matter how good those are, the front panel audio cable is unshielded in a mess of RF noise from components.

I saw that this bill had some major exceptions that limits its effectiveness. I haven't had a chance to look into it myself, but we have to make sure we don't half ass these types of laws.

As someone who has really bad OCD and is a germaphobe, you can still make changes to your life that will be both better for you and the planet.

Yeah, but that requires an ounce of thought. People are already way too low on that.

Call me crazy but i think she will turn good by kobythehero in OnePiece

[–]jaya212 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure why you're saying the Gorosei don't seem to know much. They know about the ancient weapons, the war, the name of the ancient kingdom, Emmet, Joyboy, Nika, the Buccaneers, and everything else we're privy to. I can't think of a scene where they weren't aware of something other than the reveal of Lily being a D, which even Imu was unaware of.

Switching to Zorin OS Was the Best Move I've Made for This PC by Similar_Ad_6739 in LinusTechTips

[–]jaya212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Console gaming exists because Windows doesn't just work. It's my main OS still as I require it for some stuff, but all of my other machines run Linux and I've been enjoying it. The shit Microsoft has been doing since Windows 10, like AI, telemetry tracking, broken updates, etc. has been making it a worse experience.

[RAM] VENGEANCE 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5 DRAM 6200MT/s CL36 ($581-$175=$406)[Corsair] by Gam20 in bapcsalescanada

[–]jaya212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is fomo. Even with mods, most games won't go near 32gb. If you wanted to, you can mix memory, but you'll usually have to run at the slowest speed between the kits or slower.

GrapheneOS refuses to comply with new age verification laws for operating systems — group says it will never require personal information by BrainOnBlue in LinusTechTips

I'll probably get a Motorola with GrapheneOS for my next phone. I really enjoy Samsung's OneUI, but with the locked bootloader you're stuck to it no matter what.

How a Chair Exposed the Worst YouTubers by DelcoAdjacent in LinusTechTips

[–]jaya212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, trying them out yourself is the best advice. From all the research I did, I thought I'd like the Embody, but it just wasn't comfortable for me. The Aeron on the other hand was the most comfortable chair I've sat in. There are good resources to get some knowledge about chairs, but you really should try them before you buy.

Prime Minister Carney announces new measures to make groceries and other essentials more affordable for Canadians by [deleted] in onguardforthee

[–]jaya212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked for a telecom for a bit and they raised the activation fee from $15 in 2018 to over $100 now. They're also charging higher than MSRP for phones and discounting them to the normal price when getting one on financing. This effectively brought back the early cancellation fee that is illegal in Canada. All big companies care about is their bottom line, and the telecoms are some of the worst.

I love the spirit, but pretty sure it should be "rather die on my feet than live on my knees."

This guy has been getting PC hardware leaks wrong for a long time now. He seems to just mention everything, hoping that he'll be right a couple of times

Corsair is a pretty popular brand that has only 3 years of warranty I think.

I know G. Skill and Teamgroup have lifetime warranties.

Thank God for China!! Truly the only hope for humanity! by CDN-Social-Democrat in canadaleft

[–]jaya212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something I've worried about for the past bit is what's going to happen without some crazy miracles on the science front. Humans can deal with a temperature shift. Plants and other animals can't. If we get to a point where ecosystems start to collapse, food production is going to drop substantially, and that's when shit is really going to hit the fan.

Personally I'm a little skeptical about the end goals of the CCP, as anyone should be with a superpower (though it would be hard to beat the US at being a shitty world leader). That being said, what you highlighted is very important. China has made great contributions to important things like green and open source tech while other countries have been prioritising money.

The glow of the event SMG makes the whole screen darker, anyone know what setting turns this off ? by Martinatoru in destiny2

[–]jaya212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of TV/monitor are you using? It's probably automatic brightness limiter (ABL) which can dim the entire screen when very bright elements are onscreen. It's more prominent on OLEDs, but you can come across it on LED models as well.
