Win 7 64-bit handily beats any distro of Linux at .69% (nice). Comparing only to 32-bit isn’t a fair comparison. Not that I’m against using Linux, I use Pop_os on a spare computer as a Linux test bed for gaming.

Gaming@beehaw.org•Space sim Squadron 42 is "feature-complete" and gunning for Starfield's lunch with massive new video
10·2 years agoI watched the video and what they showed certainly looks impressive. The level of detail in actions, variety of gameplay, immersive first person perspective, and visual details all look good. I hope the game looks and plays as good as what’s shown and actually releases sometime soon, but I’m not holding my breath. Even if you ignore all the baggage the game has, gameplay trailers to games still in development are lies more often than not. I stopped following the development like 8 years ago, now it’s off my radar until it actually releases.

Technology@beehaw.org•Vintage Mac Community Begs Manufacturers for New Supply of Rare Dongle as Resellers Charge $250
3·2 years agoThankfully, at least recently, most devices have settled on only a few standards. And some older devices can be modded to work with newer ports. I know rhere are some mods to add a usb-c port to the 2ds, and from what I understand they’re not too difficult to do.

Technology@lemmy.world•Philips Hue will force users to upload their data to Hue cloud
4·2 years agoTrue, but thankfully there are a lot of choices in that space, and it’s constantly growing. And if there aren’t, a lot of times it’s possible to make one (or buy someone’s) using an esp32 or similar. Zigbee, zwave, and matter devices should all be possible to run local only.

Unethical Life Pro Tips@lemmy.world•Rent requirements in the US are nuts

Yeah, which is why you shouldn’t use strong household cleaners around kids, and should only use it with proper ventilation and a respiratory device if warranted. And smoking is bad, don’t do it around your kids.

politics @lemmy.world•Sinema calls for Biden admin and Tuberville to find 'middle ground' in abortion standoff
22·2 years agoAnd I can understand why when you abuse the word “literally” like that. What you mean is that she’s figuratively Dolores Umbridge from Harry Potter. /s
It may be more difficult than a relatively static price, but if they can figure out how to charge it, they can figure out how to display it. Any ISP sites I’ve used have you put in zip code anyway to view services. There’s no reason they can’t set it up to show the exact fee rates per area. I know you said you’re not defending them, but “it’s hard” isn’t really an excuse.

Gaming@beehaw.org•Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Accessibility Features Let You Slow Down Gameplay - IGN
1·2 years agoI liked them fine enough the first time through the game. But I absolutely loved that I could disable them for my second playthrough. More customization like this is a big step forward.

News@lemmy.world•Disapproval of Elon Musk is top reason Tesla owners are selling, survey says
2·2 years agoThat is a bit surprising for the reasons you say. EVs having less reliability overall kinda makes sense given the market is still going through growing pains. I’m betting it will improve quickly given that most manufacturers are still ramping up production.

News@lemmy.world•Disapproval of Elon Musk is top reason Tesla owners are selling, survey says
1711·2 years agoIf I already had a Tesla I don’t know that I’d sell it because of him, but he was one of the major factors in me not even considering them when I was shopping for my EV. The other reasons being shoddy quality control, shitty practices, and dumb design decisions. All of which probably stem from him anyway.

A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•You didn't bought it you rented it! - Lemmy.world
161·2 years agoWhen I bought my house the previous owners didn’t want their old printer and asked if we wanted it. I said sure, figuring if it was crap I can just get rid of it. It’s a 14 year old Brother laser printer and I’m never getting rid of it. It’s big, it’s got no wifi, can only scan to USB or an FTP server, and (obviously) only prints in black and white. But I’ll be damned if the thing doesn’t just work without any fuss. You turn it on, hit print and it fucking prints. No fade lines or misprints because you haven’t printed in 3 months.
My old inkjet sits in a closet now collecting dust. Fuck dealing with ink that dries up and constantly needs to be changed or cleaned.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Could we have had Beast Wars in the 60s?
16·2 years agoYou’re not wrong, but I think the above poster was sarcastically pointing out that people who believe that the government is highly coordinated and competent don’t trust the government to run healthcare because it’s too uncoordinated and incompetent. Both incredibly strong and also laughably weak.
Same here. Verizon Fios?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Opinions: What is a movie you genuinely like, that is rated below 60% on rotten tomatoes?
8·2 years agoThe critic vs audience score divide is pretty telling for some movies. Ant-Man: Quantumania and both Venom movies come to mind as movies that were critically panned but had pretty high audience score. They’re nothing spectacular but still dumb fun movies.
You don’t buy a company for their servers or employees
Clearly he didn’t buy it for that either, since he chucked those out the window shortly after purchase. Pretty sure he spent billions of dollars to shitpost and create a safe space for nazis.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Have you ever dumped a job right after youve been hired?
311·2 years agoStringing them along and wasting more of their time and money was the not a dick option? I’d say that’s the be more of a dick option. I’m all for walking out on a shitty job, but it sounds like their worst crime was not giving you as good an offer as somewhere else.



Even better, when they film vertically, and then encode it to widescreen. Ensuring that no matter how you view it on a phone it’s microscopic.
