Pop OS worked straight out of the box with the Nvidia driver build BUT it’s using an old version of Gnome desktop environment so doesn’t have support for HDR or VRR. Pop is based on Ubuntu so all the Debian and Ubuntu terminal commands will be familiar.

Fedora is leading edge and so long as you opt in for non-open source drivers works with Nvidia and runs HDR and VRR in KDE (haven’t used the Gnome version).

Haven’t tried any other distros but Bazzite seems well recommended.

Lutris is the recommended software for non-steam games. If you search for that and Sims/EA you should be able to find out if it’ll work for you.

I only use windows now for sim racing and Vr, but I also don’t play online games with anti-cheat. Linux seems pretty stable and I’ve found it easy to use.

Gran Tourismo 2 & 3 and Unreal Tournament. Basically recreations in modern engines.

Those games defined the late 90s/early 00s for me.

If Treasury and RBNZ are correct that the low point of this economic cycle will occur this year, then people will feel like things are improving by election time next year. The public has a very short memory so I have zero confidence that they will vote them out for making the downturn worse.

National will campaign hard on how it’s getting better and the public will eat it up because they’re the party of FiScAl ReSpOnSiBiLiTy

Star Wars: Squadrons and BallasticNG spring to mind. They will definitely make you get motion sickness though if you’re not fully acclimatised to VR.

I had so little to go on I even tried guessing

All prices in NZD. Highest priced air cooled card, the Asus ROG Astral, is $6299 and the Asus ROG AIO is $6599.

Even after stripping out the 15% sales tax the lowest priced card is still USD 2655.

I can recommend Yanis’ actual book titled Technofeudalism. It’s an easy read for lay audiences as he’s written it as if he was explaining the outcomes of his research in simple terms to his father.

I found it to be a fresh take compared to most post-capitalist research that I’ve read over the last few years.

Being based in New Zealand, the XX90 cards come with a significant markup and are wholly unaffordable. They’re priced at about 8% of the median pre-tax salary. I built an entire premium sim rig for less than the cost of a 4090.

It should be DOA but it’ll still sell out for the next couple of months. Think my 3080 will need to last 2 more years unless there is a 5080 ti that uses cut down 5090 dies.

 

I was going to wait for a 5080 super anyway, or ideally a 5080 ti, but my 3080 might have to do its duty for another 2 years. This is pretty pathetic.

lol. I searched “nvidia 570 Linux” less than a week ago and nada. Just did it again based on you comment and it looks like it was released 2 days ago.

You’re an absolute legend! Thanks for the heads up.

I found an old (more than a year) post where someone had issues with filtered keywords being reset. At the time it didn’t seem reproducible.

On iPhone, running iOS 18.2.1, it consistently clears the filtered list if I quit the app from the app switcher. Community and user blocks are unaffected.

I’m unsure if this is a new issue or not as I haven’t used a keyword filter until now.

 

I'm trying to host a vaultwarden instance through docker and failing miserably. This isn't my first attempt either but I've got much further than before.

I'm using a DuckDNS domain with caddy as reverse proxy, but it appears that the domain is defaulting to port 80 no matter how I set up the config. I can't specify a port number in DuckDNS as far as I can tell. If the simple solution is to just buy a domain name I will consider it. Otherwise could really use some help in sorting out why it's not connecting.

I can't access Vaultwarden on the internal IP as it's not being served as SSL but both Vaultwarden and Caddy are running with no errors in logs. I've left out a bunch of admin env variables for the Vaultwarden service to truncate the code.

docker-compose:

`[___](services:

vaultwarden:

}

Any idea where I'm going wrong?

 

Merry Christmas dnb crew. I got back into mixing and producing this year after a 15 year hiatus and polished off this mix today. It’s a mixture of neuro, darkstep and techstep, mainly the tunes I have on repeat which is why there’s a few older ones in there.

I’m pretty happy with it, but unbiased feedback would be great even if it’s critical.

 
 
 

Coming from an 8700K so will be interesting to see how Assetto Corsa and Path of Exile do with the significant cpu upgrade.

 

A Kiwi classic for the start of summer festie season.

 

Lol, that was quick. Effectively, “Thanks for your supporters but we’ll be fine without you”.

 

Google pushed their Ai Overview onto my country last night and that finally gave me the push to change search engines.

One thing I did find useful was having product prices displayed in the search result headers but this doesn’t appear to be enabled in any other engine. I used it to quickly scan between retailers as not everything shows up in pricespy or priceme.

I deployed a searxng instance this morning and have heard that you can use json to modify result presentation. Does anyone know if it’s possible to use that to display prices?

Upgrading from an 8700k to a 9800x3d once it’s out. It’s currently a long weekend in New Zealand so there are some decent sales, but we do suffer from a real lack of choice. E.G I'm sure somebody will recommend the Tomahawk but it’s out of stock and NZD 500.

My main criteria for a motherboard is having 3+ m2 slots. I’d previously found the ASUS TUF GAMING B650-E ATX for NZD360, but the MSI X670E GAMING PLUS ATX has recently been listed for NZD400.

I’ve previously almost exclusively used Asus mobos and am not concerned about Asus’ poor reputation for RMA as we have legal consumer protections that mean I deal with the retailer not Asus. So I’m happy to go ahead with the Tuf but wondering if it’s worth paying the extra $40 for an x670e board?

Anybody have experience with either mobo they can share?
