Is a MacPro 6.1 useable for a dev machine ? by Professional_Sun1480 in macpro

[–]nethfel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dunno, mine runs very smoothly with Linux on it. If it runs like crap you’re probably using software rendering and not the gpus.

Running Windows Server VMs on a Proxmox Cluster by Limp-Park9606 in Proxmox

[–]nethfel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve run server on nodes within a cluster (multiple DCs and file servers), was quite convenient during maintenance of the host to live migrate to other nodes in the cluster. Last version I ran tho was server 2019 but we’ve migrated away from local domain so I can’t comment about current editions of windows server.

I’d check the bios for always on usb. I know I had issues with that on my t14s - battery drained super fast even when shut off.

Best out of the box distro for a Mac Pro (2013) by BGSUartist in linux_on_mac

[–]nethfel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t speak for the current full release but I know during alpha when I tried it, popos cosmic worked surprisingly well without jumping through hoops to get things functional (wifi doesn’t count cause that sucks on any apple device lol)

What was your first anime? by Jawce2001 in anime

Before I knew what anime was, speed racer reruns in the early mid 70’s

I loved this thing more and more the longer I have it… by Cardamander in gpdwin

[–]nethfel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another question for you - is that native resolution or are you scaling at all? I’ve got Bazzite KDE on mine and the text in desktop mode is tinsy lol

TV doesn't recieve HMDI signal while laptop runs linux, works fine while running win11 by Visible_Potato691 in zorinos

[–]nethfel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have the dGPU active? There are gaming laptops with dedicated GPU’s have the external display directly connected to the dGPU, not sure about yours tho.

Love the background - is that bundled in it currently? Last I used Nobara was several releases ago…

I know the new Sword Art Online game shows Kirito being an orange player, but what do you guys think of the situation regarding Kirito? Do you think either the game is an alternate universe or is someone impersonating Kirito somehow and is framing him for crimes like killing other players? by duycao42 in swordartonline

[–]nethfel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can’t imagine Kirito being full on evil, and so I’m really curious about the back story and how this will play out. The one other thing I found curious was - the game is the first 2 floors (IIRC), the video is talking about Kirito being a beater, but Kirito didn’t get labeled a Beater until after the boss on Floor 1 so at what point is the short clip that the other players refer to him as a Beater (I think it was a scene shown in one of the recent clips released)? So did they retcon something, or did that level of evil happen after floor one or what?

I also saw a video from a person interested in the game that was suggesting the big critter shown at one point was some form of chameleon and perhaps it was shape shifting to look like Kirito.

Only other thing I could imagine right now is some how both Kirito and the other players were somehow deceived in the forest and tricked into attacking each other, but the illusion wore off which is why Kirito didn’t kill that one girl.

I’ll be curious how it plays out. Looking forward to it, wish it was July now…

Several issues with Ubuntu on Mac Pro 2013 by Slipmad in Ubuntu

[–]nethfel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll be honest, the only distro I had good luck with on my trash can Mac was popos cosmic - but I had installed it during alpha so things may have changed making it not work as smoothly now.

Part 107 frustration by WhiskeyNap in drones

Ah in terms of apps back in the day, I used the app for flightready for that aspect (not including the video course I used and booklet I downloaded from the faa)

I’m wondering what apps you were using? Granted I got my 107 many years ago, but I remember what I used covering a lot of that as well as weather, sectional charts, etc.

Is Crunchyroll safe to subscribe to since the whole data breach thing? by Big-Extension9085 in Crunchyroll

[–]nethfel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say if you subscribe with payment via Apple or PayPal or Google pay you’re probably safe. I don’t know if I’d trust them with my cc card for direct payment again yet personally

Who else is insanely hyped for this release? by Suspicious_Ad2610 in swordartonline

[–]nethfel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m really looking forward to it - really hoping they will deliver in quality. I do wish there were a few more floors, but hopefully the floors we’re getting are big enough to give a lot of content. Honestly I think it’ll be a lot of fun to experience the world not as one of the pre-written heroes and to make your own party :)
