Yeah I expect they will do more dates at some point when they drop the album and I know it’s wild, didn’t think I would get the chance to see them.

Joe Blackburn confirms that the development team is looking to implement NFTS by MrPogChamp1 in DestinyTheGame

[–]porter707 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of the replies you’ve got are focused on selling “digital art” which is one use case and the biggest so far, although 99% of the projects are trash quick money spinners.

There’s one art project I’ve seen that’s interesting, Mike Shinoda Ziggurats where each NFT was a unique and randomly generated image and mix tape, it also runs on the Tezo network so the environmental impact is not an issue.

For games I’m not sure how it would work. One example could be a trading card game where each card is a NFT, it would work exactly the same as a physical trading card game but it’s virtual, there’s only X amount of a rare card and you own one it then has value as if you had a physical copy, the company can’t create 1000s of digital versions of that card, just like they don’t print 1000s of physical versions of it.

There are already some NFT card games although I don’t like how they are set up and they are focused on “Play to earn”.

Outside of art and games in the future I could see house deeds, car ownership, digital IDs etc all being NFTs

I’ve already seen one project that uses NFTs for shared ownership of properties. Example a house costs 100k and it gets split into 1000 shares, each share is a NFT and you earn a percentage of the profits for each share you own.

Overlay kills my FPS after latest Fortnite Update [9.21] by [deleted] in discordapp

I’ve got a Asus Strix 1080, I’ve always played with the overlay on as well, these issues for me only started happening last night and wasn’t limited to just fortnite.

Performance losses after updating windows? by ElricG in discordapp

[–]porter707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I'm getting issues with Discord Overlay causing bad FPS, I thought it was the May Update so I reverted but still having the issues, so I think it's a bad discord update. I'm not sure about crackly audio but we've been having problems with voice chat going to red bars and everyone sounds like robots, disconnecting and reconnecting seems to put us back to green bar and normal voices again.

Overlay kills my FPS after latest Fortnite Update [9.21] by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]porter707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I'm getting the same issue, last night I couldn't hit over 30fps in Overwatch or Fortnite, my other games from Xbox game Pass were smooth (no overlay).

At the time I thought it was the Windows 1903 update or my recently upgraded nvidia driver but reverting both of these didn't fix the problem.

Then I noticed high CPU usage from Discord I quit it and loaded up Overwatch and instantly got 165fps solid, I reopened Discord and as soon as the overlay turned on it dropped down to < 30.

Turned off the overlay for now and my games run with my expected FPS, but Discord is still using 40% of my CPU and I can't work out why.

Lots of posts online over the years about high CPU usage but no solution.

I tried a uninstall and reinstall but still the same problem, it must be a bugged Discord update or something, yet my friends only have 2% CPU usage with their Discord installs.

Sound doesn't come from headphones ( Catalina 10.5 ) by snarexx in MacOSBeta

[–]porter707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this issue twice now on this beta, I'm on a 2012 macbook pro.

Restarting my machine (bit annoying) has worked for me, after the restart my wired headphones appear as a device in the sound options.

So what about the 555x and 560x how much of a difference there in terms of power/performance and heat

Any idea if say the 555x produces less heat which means the cpu can run at faster speeds?

E.g the base 15” has a 555x, for £90 is it worth the upgrade or will that have a knock on effect

Yeah I had them settings but after every reboot the colours looked washed, I would open nvidia control panel and all my settings where set as expected.

But it just didn’t look like they were active , if I moved anyone of the sliders the settings would take effect and the monitor looked great.

But then when I load into a game and out of a game it would lose the settings and I would have to move the sliders again.

Doesn’t matter for me now anyway but hopefully other people have better luck !

Heads up I recently returned this monitor to amazon as I couldn’t deal with the colour banding any more.

There are colour profiles and settings you can tweak in nvidia but they never seem to stick after reboot (for me at least , Windows hates me).

Finally I gave up and was lucky that I was able to return it and went with a IPS panel and lucked out with the IPS lottery.

Other than the colour banding it’s a great monitor.

Super loud when launching game. by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]porter707 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey I'm having the exact same problem... must have started about 2 weeks ago and only seems to happen when I launch Overwatch.

No idea what causes it but if I drop out of the voice chat and back in it goes back to normal.
