“Did you know that every time you sigh, a little bit of happiness escapes?”

  • Senjougahara Hitagi

  • The amount of metadata sometimes stored in pictures can be insane

  • Can confirm, the taco is a Russian nesting taco.

  • ERROR Insert Coin

  • Something tells me he would be appalled by learning his invention leads to synthol.

  • But I do have the option to create a separate non-mesh network from the AP

    Channel 165 tends to be empty if you do try that.

    If your core problem is bg3 itself crashing then I've gone on a silly tangent here.

    You might find act 3 is more stable in dx11 mode assuming proton is up for the challenge.

  • Another thought of mine is that wireless devices can perform poorly if they are too close to the AP. (Like less than a meter)

    I don't get the option for channel 106

    Assuming you're not in a country that blocks the use of those channels. There is a bunch of corner cutting gear out there that won't let you use a big chunk of the 5ghz spectrum.

    If you're shopping for new stuff look for gear that supports DFS channels in the future.

    ...and two AmpliFi mesh access points to provide the wifi.

    Mesh networks can perform poorly for applications that are sensitive to latency and jitter. (Such as steam's remote play)

    a whole bunch of hidden networks come with it. I think this must be related to the mesh network, it's a lot of networks though! 8 or 9 of them

    It's possible that some of those are related. My assumption is that there's interference from your own devices and the neighbours. But a mesh network isn't an ideal environment.

    In the app, what does the width of the bar represent? It says something like Wifi_Network 157 (155) and has a big flat top that seems to cover a range.

    This is indicative of the channel width. It's a common occurrence to have a network use overlapping channels to increase performance.

    The take away is that not all channels are isolated from one another and it's possible for a network to have many of them bonded together.

    With Wifi_Network 157 (155). It's indicating that the network's real channel 155 with a 80mhz channel width. But it's configured to channel 157 for its beacon as not all devices will connect in 80mhz mode. 157 represents the 20mhz channel it's configured to camp on.

    Is that indicating that nearby channels can interfere with each other?

    Yes.

  • So there's a few issues at play.

    That automatic channel changing feature is more harmful than helpful in this context.

    If you're able to lock it onto an entirely empty channel it'll help. Try for channel 106

  • Do you see any overlap on yours in the graph view?

  • If I recall correctly the framework laptops have a bunch of USBC ports?

    If so you could just get a USBC dongle for it.

    In the meantime we can evaluate the quality of your WiFi. If you have an android phone, I find this app works fairly well for visualizing the network.

    Additionally, If you have a dual band router I would suggest disabling the 2.4Ghz band unless you have any legacy devices that use it.

    Check that your network isn't overlapping with any other networks.

  • Are you able to connect everything involved via ethernet?

    Wi-Fi can be unreliable for many reasons so being near it isn't going to change the thought much.

    A quick google suggests to me that it's Vulkan if you are running it that way but I can't confirm.

    What may be happening is that when the connection is unstable it may not be well designed enough to handle the dropped connection gracefully to let you reconnect.

  • I noticed a pretty extreme difference in performance in openssh when using x11 forwarding when I touch the cipher suite.

    AES128-ctr vs AES128-gcm on kubuntu 22.04.

    I was wondering if anyone could shed some light into that. I'm mostly curious if it's not using hardware acceleration when I switch it to GCM.

  • Are you trying to do this over ethernet or WiFi?

    If you're trying to use wifi that connection needs to be stellar for this to work well. No over-lapping channels with the neighbours and not too many clients.

    If you're experiencing this on a wired connection, look into if your gear supports jumbo frames and confirm it's a gigabit link.

    Try using Vulkan mode for BG3.

  • I love how needlessly complicated this is.

  • I always thought her character was the weakest aspect of the show. Being able to sense their emotions from another starship was harder to accept than the introduction of Q.

    If her scope was limited to the room I wouldn't have minded.

  • I never imagined a world where Intel was the little fish. Wild

  • I have a 4k BluRay player I picked up for cheap. But I only have like 2 movies for it.

  • Could you expand on why you didn't like Spotify?

    It's really popular with my friends and family. So I'm curious what's missing to make it a winner for you?
