  • What cheap tool/gadget do you use that greatly improves your daily life?
  • AnonymousLlama AnonymousLlama 1y ago 100%

    I'm pretty fond of these little Velcro straps I got from Amazon that are like 10cm x 30cm, you use them to push all your computer cables into them so you can neaten them up. I've got several of them strapped back to back and it's a pretty decent solution (and being Velcro you can just pull it apart later on)

  • Why am I being suspended?
  • AnonymousLlama AnonymousLlama 1y ago 100%

    I'd also argue that regardless of the server size, it takes literal seconds to explain why your account is getting banned, it's absolutely within the realm of reason that if your system allowed automated signups that you as an admin have an obligation to not be a shitcunt and at least give a reason as to why you're banning accounts.

    I still occasionally run across the odd dodgy website that tried to disable zooming (along with other oddities like trying to disable right clicking on desktop) and it feels honestly that most of these annoyances come about because some asshole in the company (the CEO, lead designer, marketer, whatever) sees any changes to their websites from the user as "ruining the experience", disregarding the whole concept of accessibility in the modern web

    LemmyWorld forced to close shitposting community due to CSAM spammers
  • AnonymousLlama AnonymousLlama 1y ago 100%

    It's a shame it's not written in a PHP framework or something that's more common. Plenty of devs have been helping about contributing to kbin development, it sounds like it's a lack of manpower on Lemmy's end that's contributing to this

    For an "experimental vaccine" it's had a pretty amazing job at limiting the severity of covid and reducing deaths. If only all experiments were that successful

    I thought the selling point behind most Twitter like services is that it's focused on negative positioning. E.g. things that are negative focused get more attention and engagement

  • Linus Tech Tips apology video - BEST PARTS
  • AnonymousLlama AnonymousLlama 1y ago 100%

    Gamers Nexus (another highly respected tech YouTuber) called out LTT for their mistakes and performances over the last few years, the overall point being that they're moving too fast and causing multiple mistakes in their content.

    There's a current controversy with a company called Billet who gave LTT a custom water block to test and instead of testing it properly with the 3090 it was made for, they tried it with a 4090 card (and it obviously didn't work)

    Linus doubled down on their results saying it wouldn't have mattered anyway because it's a rubbish product and no one should buy it (which came across very poorly, why even agree to test a product if you know your going to trash on it)

    The whole situation specifically looks like it's triggered some upcoming changes in LMG and hopefully the outcome is better, more accurate video content

    https://tech4gamers.com/best-motherboard-for-i9-13900k/

    What motherboards are you guys using for your high end CPUs? I stuck with a standard Z790 Gigabyte board for my 13900k. The main selling points I found when I was looking was that more expensive boards usually supported higher memory frequencies / timings and provided extra headers and M.2 slots. I've got my system running 6400MHZ DDR5 memory and by the looks of it, once you go over 7k or beyond the gaming performance seems negligible? What actual tangible benefits are the 500/600/700 dollar boards bringing?

    Looks like Daedalic Entertainment is getting shuttered because of how badly the Gollum game was received. Usually not keen on dog-piling on developers when they're down but it was truly an awful game

    There's a heap of devs working on bug fixes and improvements to the kbin.social website. If you run into a bug or find something strange, it would be great if you can report it on codeberg. With third party apps going away, I'm expecting an influx of new people who will join kbin.social over the next few weeks. The project has taken shape rapidly and it's exciting to see the progress that's been made. I've been working through a range of UI/UX issues focusing on mobile but any reports, along with images or use cases are super handy to people looking at the issues list.

    Anyone else excited for City Skylines 2? I'm pretty impressed with all the changes they've introduced, it should be a more dynamic experience this time around. With the focus on scale, I'm keen to see how performance goes this time around. I remember in previous huge cities it could start to chug. I'm assuming we'll get at least FSR / DLSS upscaling support this go around too?

    The third party API changes come into effect tomorrow **(1/7/2023)** so now's a good time to either **purge or edit your existing content**. There's still no guarantee that Reddit wont just revert your changes (which they've notably done to a few people so far), but at least editing your comments before you delete your account is one way you can let them know how dogshit their handling of this situation has been. This thing was as easy as adding it to your bookmark bar on desktop, signing into old.reddit.com and pressing on it. It's a shame to lose years of great posts and comments but with how poorly Reddit has engaged with the community over this, there's no point sticking around.

    Hey guys. I've been trying to get kbin.social running on my local machine [outlined here](https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/wiki#clone-repo-1) but I'm running into issues [issue with kbin install](https://imgur.com/a/GFFmfBt) I've installed Docker Desktop for windows and I can see the containers being created but I'm getting errors on the front-end build stage, I've put it in a ticket here but not sure what else to do. [https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/368](https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/368) I've already got node, npm and yarn installed, I've done the following and I'm not making much progress `npm install yarn build ` When I view the site locally its throwing errors. I'm pretty new to docker and even yarn so I'm not sure what I should do next, any big brain thoughts from you guys by chance?
