V2 has place to solder hotswap adapters while V1 only lets you solder onto the board.

 

I have had pretty bad pain all week in my stomach. And today I started to actually feel sick.

It seems like my ibs/gastritis ridden stomach feels all of this happening miles before anything even happens. Anyone else have similar exp?

Worst in these thoughts is that you never see clearly in the thick of life, only in the blissful decadent moments when you smoke some cigarette or take who knows what that will make your chronic stomach pain worse in the long run.

Since you are not telling me the issue I cant give you what might have went wrong. You might have learned from that.

One advice, nobody will like linux who painstakingly has to play catchup on the terminal on a pre-baked OS.

All the distros I ever cycled through, I always had issues with pre-baked systems. There are always these little things you expect that does not end up happening even if you sweat blood. Then you start looking and you find out that nobody ever had this and there is no documentation whatsoever.

The only antidote aganist that if you are in control and if it is documented. I only ever liked linux in the advanced form.

NTFS?! Yuck.

But like what was the issue?

What ended up being the issue?

How is NixOS going? I am also an Arch convert, but the issue with Gentoo is that it feels like a clusterfuck after days spent on configuration that is not easy to replicate. I mean it works but I might not want to go through it next time.

Weeelll not for long. Open kernel module works like a charm for me. Wayland support is now actively worked on and is already functional for the most part. HDMI 2.1 was always supported while AMD would not be able to. HDR and 10 bit support also dropped just now.

Of course they do. People today confuse most online arguments for people being knowlegable within their field with people being knowlegable on winning the same argument over and over.

That is why any debate over here is not to be taken seriously. Let the source hoarders have their fun, its not your game.

FYI: Zenfone 8 got 2 years of software support and they forcefully closed down the ability to root it almost right after support ended, even lying they will turn it back on to no avail.

I do not recommend anyone to choose an Asus as their next phone. Im ashamed I bought so much Asus PC parts since.

It means that literally nobody fucking wanted or asked for this, yet this quirky useless stuff exists.

 

I guess I want to see whether there are some advanced solutions so I can play movies and anime in 120fps 4K.

Is gamescope pretty much the only solution in case of games?

 

I am new to ergonomic and programmable keyboards, but something felt fun about making it as cheap as possible by doing 5 at once, and cheapinos at that. I spent quite a few hours on slimming down the cost and ended up spending roughly 35-40 bucks per board, switches and keycaps included. For this I have:

  • Magnetic USB-C cable
  • 360 rotatable RJ45 cable
  • Hotswap Cheapino V2 board that hopefully works
  • Spare PCB that can serve as bottom.
  • Of course it has rotary encoder as well.
  • ABT Green/Red Aliexpress sourced keycaps.
  • Either Gateron G Pro v3.0 Silver or Tecsee Purple Panda switches (very good budget switches based on reading)

For this, how much would you realistically ask for? Either max profit or your preferred cost.

What a story this guy has. Being a spy for multiple parties, finishing up as the claimant of being the Dalai Lamas reincarnation then dying under suspicious circumstances after writing Hitler to stop the holocaust.

The wiki page speaks for itself.

 

I am trying out Fedora for multiple unrelated reasons (use RHEL at work, new config, it might be more optimized) and I noticed a number of concerning caveats, even in mind with the fact that I already use RHEL:

  1. Software support seems lacking. I have a growing number of software neither the repo, nor rpmfusion has. In any other case I would need to use copr for installing community maintained packages. However copr feels relatively abandoned and unreliable. That mainly comes down to packages being undiscriminately displayed without download stats or upvote status (unless you look them up one by one). Also a large part of packages are incompatible because they were made specifically for Fedora 38 with no 39 fixup in sight. Rpmfusion is weirdly empty, I expected it to have majority of the stuff I need so I dont inevitably have to rely on copr. I already had to download executables from upstream.
  2. Install Groups. They are not getting listed properly! It only lists the most basic meta groups. This is combined with the lack of actually being able to search for groups and you got yourself a lot of random groups you wont find unless you start looking it up online.
  3. Xorg wiki page. Ex fucking cuse me?! Did I mistype something, because I clearly remember trying to use one of the most popular and allegedly well put together distros. At this point why even have a wiki page?
  4. base-x group contains everything needed for running Xorg. I will actually eat my hat if you can tell me I can find that info without stackoverflow. Cant search for the group, nothing is documented about it.

I would agree with the sentiment that I could technically write the documentation and package all the things I need in copr, but Im having serious doubts if this "platform" developed by the same guys who dont document it is actually worth the hassle.

I guess the positive thing to say about it is that it performed better for gaming than my Arch install, and I had done zero optimisations on it yet.

 

I am going to build probably a few keyboards (like 3) for people to gift to. Since 100% PCB is not as popular as ergo boards, Im having a hard time finding any.

Do you have any 100% PCB (aliexpress or gerbers for printing in a PCB service like jlcpcb) that you prefer?

My goal is to make it as cheap as possible.

 

It turns out I can do fuckall with my nh-d15 on my new setup. GPU wont fit full stop. Im very skeptical with trying to purchase nh-d15s this time around, as Im pretty sure I wont be able to use the offset mounting kit for it without running into the same issues that need that cooler to begin with.

Is there a cooler that is just straight up for am5 and cools like a champ? No fucking around with offsets and such. Can be AIO for all I care.

 

Im planning my new config and one of the primary issue is that Im unsure whether 7950x3d is worth the hassle. If I went with 7950x, I would surely want to fiddle with overclocking.

As far as Im aware, 7950x3d can be overclocked, but only the one without the 3d cache. How reliable is this?

Also, I suspect that the TDP difference is a non-issue, as it is mostly just a limitation of the 7950x3d thermals rather than actually better power consumption.

Also the L3 cache is 64mb for the 7950x vs 128mb for 7950x3d. How much does that matter?

Things I want to do: gaming, software development, virtual machines, VR, AI related work. Im asking here since I mainly want to know about the status on linux.

 

Im not sure how it would fair as a regular workstation. Apparently the Ampere Altra is already being used for remote gaming workloads in China and it utilizes RTX 4090 for that.

It looks like a pretty solid value for 128 cores at 3000 bucks. Maybe even 32 cores for 2000. It is even competitive with M1/M2 macs and Epyc/threadripper.

 
 
 

You cant. They just shut down the server and removed the unlocker app from their site. Maybe, just maybe, they will release a "rewritten version" in the coming months according to some guy on xda who asked them.

This shit is the last asus product Im buying for a loong time if ever.
