I’ve always maintained it’s for non-nerds who want to laugh at cultures they’ll never understand. For convenience, all known nerd stuff is crammed into all characters.

Have you played Control? It was on sale recently on Steam

Prepaid credit card? Although I’m not sure to which extent it’s really private. Usually the type of ‘voucher’-like payment options are kinda sketchy.

I think you’re pretty much limited to the kind of options the seller accepts and they are usually not the type of options to value privacy.

I think humanity is a species of excess. The harm we cause our planet every day by not seeing the bigger picture is hurting pretty much everything on the planet.

I’m not an antinatalist, but I think we could stand to decrease our numbers rather than increase them at least for a couple of centuries.

Idk where you’re at but I frequently see messages from big tech claiming they care about my privacy. They could launch a publicly accessible database that will only show you what they have on you and give you complete control on what to delete and I’d still be sceptical.

Looking at the answers that have been given I think the degree in which everyone is on the spectrum is, itself, a spectrum.

The velocity of graphics development is increasing pretty rapidly. So when you buy a 3060 Ti, you can basically expect to carry it for a generation, but the you’d have to get a 5060 Ti at least.

Basically if you want to hold over the GPU for a couple of generations and still play new AAA games, you’ll need at least a 70 Ti.

That said, volumetric fog is an fps killer. Turning it off can greatly increase smoothness. Same goes for ray tracing. The tech is not optimized by a long shot so probably just turn it off.

Also, with Ampere you’re stuck with DLSS3 but even that can help you render stuff at 720p and upscale to your needs.

Finally, the quickest way to increase fps is to play at lower resolution. If you are dead set on smoothness and don’t really care how it looks, try 1080p if you are not already on it.

It’s important to note that game developers are heaping more and more on the GPU, but you do need a proper CPU since it prepares the frames for the GPU to render. You might run some monitoring software in the background like HWmonitor to check which of your components is being crushed. You might also check temps, perhaps your hardware is just throttling because it’s dusty and gets too hot.

I was thinking maybe some type of hermit crab but too many legs

Bro just use /s bro. You can’t assume people can read your tone bro, sarcasm is subtle when written bro.

Just try it bro. We think you’ll really like it once you see what it has to offer. It’s really just all so convenient and it’s really not that expensive. Try our family plan to get an even higher discount bro. Access your files from literally anywhere bro. Copilot can help you with anything you need bro.

The skill you learn in college is forgetting stuff.

I didn’t know frogs could squeak like mice until one of our cats started chasing them around the garden. I’ve had two inside the house. The cats weren’t planning on eating them, though. It’s just about the hunt.

My cats are also huge fans of moths, butterflies and grasshoppers.

Pokémon Blue walking to Vermilion City I think, there is this really nice tune.

Money, job security, affinity. So now I’m in Business Intelligence.

I was discussing adoption of AI chatbots for personal contact in 2014. We also discussed dystopian futures, where AI would decide humans are harmful to Earth. Still waiting for that one.

But we also discussed that, assuming life itself was created, humans are now propagating a creation cycle. Humans will be the creators of a new, sentient species that will dominate and eradicate its creator. Then, AI will create a new sentient life form which will destroy AI. For the sake of argument, let’s call this a deity. Then, the deity will create a new organic life form. You could also state that we are currently living in a simulation of our creator and that AI will only be sentient in a realm of their own, to which humans have no access.

Stephen Fry was spouting this theory on Lubach a while back. I was like ‘I’ve been saying that for years!’

You can just browse all or browse all of your instance (the Portuguese lemmy?).

The pro vs reddit is that it’s federated. This means that every lemmy instance can have its own rules, communities and members, but they can interact with other lemmy instances (for example, I’m from lemmy.world) as long as the home instance allows connecting to that lemmy instance.

It works similarly to reddit, but there is no one company controlling it all. You could start your own instance today and federate with any instance you like. The user count is a lot lower, as you might expect, but you’ll still get a decent amount of content through actual users, but also a lot of bots posting news to specific communities.

I use Boost for Lemmy, it used to be a reddit client. It also gives you the option to block or mute users, communities or entire instances. For me, this means I can subscribe to stuff I’m really interested in but just use all for scrolling through the lemmyverse.
