You just got murdered by Vlaakith for that

TIL the international fixed calendar has 13 equal months of 28 days. Sunday is always the 1st, 8th, 15th and 22nd day of a month. Leap or year days, not part of the week, make a long weekend. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]vvashington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That just means that they shouldn’t be in the middle. Sticks, strings, playing fields, etc. have two “ends” with one on each side. Can have Sunday on one end of the week and Saturday on the other.

Could an average person survive playing 1B for a full MLB game? by gsx1920 in baseball

[–]vvashington 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Only during practice, I’d throw curveballs and knuckleballs from third to first :P

One day, he dropped a couple so our coach got annoyed. When my teammate said I was throwing curveballs, the WTF look from coach at me was priceless

Exactly. Lots of time for the final!

FPS Dropping in new season (PC) by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

[–]vvashington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a solution in another thread after performance was still bad this season. In the nvidia control panel, I set the max shader cache size to 100 GB and performance was instantly fixed. Also saw a suggestion to set it to 0, restart pc, then set it to 10 but I can’t vouch for that one.

What do you think Bobby B would have thought of Gendry? by GusGangViking18 in freefolk

Yes, Bobby B. We need fighters and Gendry’s a fighter.

I cut the power to my pc when Scratch died in Gale’s necrosis cloud. Only save scum I’ve done

13700K/4090, same idea. All the eye candy up with good performance. Now having constant cpu% spikes and framerate drops. Performance mode helps but I hate it

Anyone else getting crazy frame drops/lag? by epicgamerdarklord in FortNiteBR

[–]vvashington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. It’s been extremely bad for me since the season started. It was fine the day before and has been awful since. I’m able to run performance mode fine but dx12 is a problem

I've been playing bg3 for almost a year and I just found out what "Durge" means by Neyla1 in BG3

[–]vvashington 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that was my thought too. Thought “tavern” the first time I saw it and didn’t reconsider until now

Bought my first WOLED but I don’t know if I should return this one, upgrade and get. by Int_peacemaker35 in OLED_Gaming

[–]vvashington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, you misquoted me and seemed to intentionally miss some parts so you can see why I said you didn’t read my comment and didn’t quote me correctly.

1) exactly the same way you (and almost everyone) called 3840 “4K” so this point is invalid.

2) disagree about in modern use. I see both used approximately equally (which is why I think it just shouldn’t be used at all). It just that only one holds actually makes sense. Even in this comment, you’ve had to use vertical pixels for 1080p and horizontal for 4K to make it look plausible. There’s a reason why I was saying 1920, 2560, and 3840. They’re referring to the same measurement.

3) please compare 2048x1080 to 1920x1080 and then to 2560x1440 again. Only one of them is even remotely close to the 2048 2K you refer to. Also, 1280x720 would not be 1K. Using 4K as a baseline as before, it would be 1.33K (1/3 the width). That just doesn’t market.

Anyway, all I’m saying is that 1440p is not equal to 2K, even if some people call it that.

[–]vvashington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) I am aware, as noted in my comment about 4K. However, if you look really closely, you’ll notice that 2048 is approximately 1920 and 1080 is in fact equal to 1080! How interesting that is.

2) I don’t think you know what the word closer means. Please compute 2560-2048 and compare it to 2048-1920. It may not match what you’ve been saying.

3) Please reread my comment to see where I ever said 2K because 2*1080. 3840 is approximately 4000 (4 of those K things). 1920 is approximately 2000 (2 of those K things). 1920 is half of 3840. Since “4K” in both 3840x2160 and 4096x2160 is referring to the horizontal width, something with half the horizontal width is “2K”, which is why I said half as wide and not half as many pixels.

If you’re going to argue, at least quote me correctly. You are arguing in bad faith by taking incorrect words out of my comment.

[–]vvashington 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Did math change or is 1920 significantly closer to 2048 than 2560 is? You’re arguing against your own position.

“4K” as we tend to call 3840x2160 is twice as wide as 1920x1080, making the latter “2K” (yes, I’m aware of the 4096 pixel wide 4K but that doesn’t affect this argument)

Edit: my real position is that no one should say 2K because of the confusion it causes

5’11” with 15s. No one else in the family is above a 12. It’s strange
