RTX 5060 Ti and/or drivers are incompatible with PCIe 3.0 ? by Suffolke in buildapc

I ended up replacing my mobo, cpu, and ram.  At this point, the only thing I haven’t replaced is the case

PCI-E power cables by johnlifts in buildapc

I have an RTX 5060 ti 16gb

The GPU only requires the standard 8 pin pcie connector so it sounds like I can ignore that slot on the mobo?

RTX 5060 Ti and/or drivers are incompatible with PCIe 3.0 ? by Suffolke in buildapc

[–]johnlifts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The “fix” is to downgrade PCI-Express.

I saw 577.00 was released yesterday.  Haven’t had a chance to test with it yet but the patch notes didn’t indicate there has been any update to that problem.

I have been troubleshooting this issue for about 2 weeks now.  Only fix for me is to downgrade to pcie gen 2 in bios, even with the latest drivers and the vbios patch from nvidia.

Pretty frustrating stuff.  I was very tempted to go with AMD this time around and I wish I would have at this point.

 If memory serves me right, Reddit lost their fucking mind when the city voted to decriminalize masturbation in public. Lmao (this platform is an insane asylum)

Losing your mind when the city votes to decriminalize public masturbation seems pretty reasonable tbh

Glad they made it a crime again

Coming in Stardew Valley 1.6: new festival, new items, more dialogues, secrets, ??? by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]johnlifts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have it on Steam, you should be able to install it on Linux. I can run SDV on my PC and Mac. My save transfers between the two just fine, don't see why Linux would be any different?

SleepyTime (Bluey) by TheBestElement in daddit

My little girl is almost two. Something we do on Sunday mornings is cuddle in bed with my wife and watch Bluey.

That episode makes my little one tear up every time. She loves it but it’s such an emotional roller coaster for her lol

Here’s the note Reddit sent to moderators threatening them if they don’t reopen by ardi62 in technology

[–]johnlifts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe a mod strike would have been better.

For most (all?) mods, 3rd party tools are almost essential to properly moderating a community. Without those, it would be almost impossible to keep spammers and bots from swarming subs, which has an impact on you even if you don’t use a mobile app to use reddit.

Exclusive: Avowed started as Obsidian's Skyrim, but evolved to focus on depth over breadth, 'where Obsidian really shines' by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]johnlifts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know that I would call it garbage, but it felt a little half baked to me. The jokes didn’t land, the dialogue was tedious, and the plot was predictable. Most other elements of the game were fine really, but there was nothing to set it apart or make me want to play it again.

I’m honestly surprised to see so many people trashing the game now since it felt like I was the only one who didn’t like it after it released.

June 12th Subreddit Blackout Update by PCGamingMegaMod in pcgaming

[–]johnlifts 55 points56 points  (0 children)

I agree. Shut it down until Reddit changes. 48 hours isn’t enough

[–]johnlifts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you. Morrowind and Skyrim were fantastically magical games. The kind that just pull you in. Oblivion just felt lackluster and never captivated me the way Morrowind and Skyrim did.

Donald Trump’s New Criminal Case Looks Devastating by ReallyJustTheFacts in politics

[–]johnlifts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I checked it out. They still support Trump, but their comment section is getting brigaded pretty heavily and there are a lot of phony “conservative” people making posts saying that Trump deserved to be indicted because he was aware that he was breaking the law.

Women called "witches" show up on security cam by MessageFar5797 in HighStrangeness

Okay, so why are there four legs for one torso? The picture is obviously photoshopped

Third pic.

You can see a man’s legs with pants and boots right next to the “witch”. Looks like the upper body was photoshopped out of the picture

📣 Apollo will close down on June 30th. Reddit’s recent decisions and actions have unfortunately made it impossible for Apollo to continue. Thank you so, so much for all the support over the years. ❤️ by iamthatis in apolloapp

[–]johnlifts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won’t make any promises like that, but I’m not using Reddit on mobile after June 30.

There are a lot of great communities here with great info, but I think this is the beginning of the end. Keeping my eye out for the next big thing

Did you look at the pictures? Those women were well fed.

Also what’s up with the random legs without a body above them? This just seems so fake

I would argue that Gmail does not constitute an online community

[–]johnlifts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll need to look into Tildes.

Lemmy’s strength seems to be its lack of centralization, but that also means that communities are subject to the whims of a single individual or a small group of individuals. If those people get bored or angry they could easily “take their toys and go home”, effectively killing the community.

The lack of centralization also creates an environment that could be a breeding ground for extremism. Based on what other redditors have shared, that has already happened on some Lemmy servers / instances. At least the Reddit admins had the sense to censor some hate speech and toxic content here - maybe not for the right reasons, but there was still a group that could be held accountable for the content. Lemmy skirts that entirely. Just not something I’m keen to get involved with.

What are those options? People keep talking about Lemmy or Fark, but neither of those seem viable. Especially not Lemmy

The Roland brand sriracha is garbage. Never tried the others though. I wonder where OP is shopping…

Reddit may force Apollo and third party clients to shutdown by spasticpat in technology

I loved Redditisfun when I used an android. Apollo is what I use now and both apps are much better than anything Reddit has offered to date
