I'll chime in with a weird take: this is a privacy community, we are united in a sense of defending our peaceful and unproblematic browsing on the internet and sending messages to friends from lunatics who seem to want everyone treated with the suspicion of highest criminal activity. the article posted describes a "privacy infringement" onto someone who not only has already broken the rule, but strongly publicized it by making people have to smell it. the perpetrators didn't even have an expectation of privacy, so the premise is ridiculous.

I'll say it like this: if the tv detects nicotine patches on someone's skin, then i pick up the torches and pitchforks.

Hey y'all, I bought a x4x4x4x4 4 slots M.2 PCIe card foolishly thinking that if it fits in the slot, it would surely work. In the end, I got 2 of the 4 SSDs working on my old AM4 X470 chipset. I'm coming to you for advice what the cheapest way to get to use this would be. I've noticed that a lot of CPUs have a PCIe lane limitation of 28, just short of what I need (I'd like to run the SSDs but also a x16 GPU). I'm not too keen to buy a threadripper setup for this occasion...

Cheers!

I love how everyone understands the issue wrong. It's not about being on Windows or Linux. It's about the ecosystem that is common place and people are used to on Windows or Linux. On windows it's accepted that every stupid anticheat can drop its filthy paws into ring 0 and normies don't mind. Linux has a fostered a less clueless community, but ultimately it's a reminder to keep vigilant and strive for pure and well documented open source with the correct permissions.

BSODs won't come from userspace software

HDR Confusion (lemy.lol)
submitted 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) by SitD@lemy.lol to c/linux_gaming@lemmy.world

Hey fellas, could you help me understand a bit more about HDR?

  • I understand that it's an absolute brightness standard, not like the relative levels in SDR
  • But why does it end up washing out colors unless I amplify them in kwin? Is just the brightness absolute in nits, but not the color?
  • Why does my screen block the brightness control in HDR mode but not contrast? And why does the contrast increase the brightness of highlights, instead of just split midtones towards brighter and darker shades?
  • Why is truehdr400 supposed to be better in dark rooms than peak1000 mode?
  • Why is my average emission capped at 270nits, that seems ridiculously low even for normal SDR screens as comparison.

Cheers 😊

😤 as far as I'm concerned every Anna is guilty until proven innocent. After that we can investigate Berta.

there are too many little details to point out but windows just controls your experience too much. for example on a widescreen i don't want to be forced to have the taskbar on the long edge. and up to including w10 the taskbar placement could be chosen. in windows 11 it's forbidden... i installed a software to hack this but of course then explorer.exe breaks every 10 minutes.

the spirit of computer technology is a universal tool. Microsoft strongarms the user to be a tool. so no thanks

bought hades 2 straight up without reviews and knowing it's gonna be wonky early access, just because the dev has a history of honest and inspired banger games. 😎👍

keep in mind that most profiteering rats pile onto the biggest cash cow games. indie scene is better than ever these days

Danke, unangenehmer Fehler meinerseits. 🫣

die einzige Schande die ich hier sehe ist die erbärmliche Erbschaftssteuer unter Gerhard Schröder. Jetzt ist die SPD in der Regierung und tut nichts um das wieder gut zu machen. Eine Arbeiterpartei die die Arbeiter derart hintergeht und nichtmal daran denkt, den Kurs zu korrigieren, kann ich nicht brauchen.

Edit: Dolch Metapher entfernt, hätte den historischen Kontext nicht auf dem Schirm und war unbeabsichtigt. Danke für den Hinweis.
