  • Plex Announces Massive Price Hike on Lifetime Subscription Plans

    Jump

  • Watch Together isn't removed, but it's been deprecated and has stopped working on at least one platform (Chromecast).

    Really shitty move to be removing/deprecating functionality and then asking for more money.

  • Minnesotans strike to protest ICE surge in state: ‘No work, no school, no shopping’

    Jump

  • Or ban them outright! Benefits of running my own isntance, haha.

  • Verizon carriers start switching to 365-day device unlock policy, up from 60 days

    Jump

  • Yeah, their BYOD plan works great if they sell the phone you're using. My Pixel 7 I got from the Google Store worked just fine with AT&T for two years before I upgraded. I just didn't even consider whether they sold the device or not to be important to the functionality of the phone.

  • Not with AT&T. Bought a Pixel 9 Pro Fold on a huge sale from Google themselves, but because AT&T doesn't sell it, they couldn't provision it correctly on their network. Went through all the troubleshooting, they sent me a new SIM even. Finally I did my own research online, found a reddit post where someone talked to an employee on some internal AT&T team that said they probably won't ever support it properly since they don't sell it.

    So that was frustrating.

  • RAM prices soar, but popular Windows 11 apps are using more RAM due to Electron, Web components

    Jump

  • Yep. My 64 gigs of RAM died in my old setup a few weeks ago, and instead of paying out the ass for replacement DDR4 RAM, I decided to pay out the ass for DDR5 RAM and upgrade while I was at it. Only did 32 gigs, because I really wasn't using most of my 64 gigs (I thought). A few days ago, I ended up having to set up a swap file because a Rust project I was working on kept crashing VSCode while it was running the analyzer. What are we doing here.

  • Framework supporting far-right racists?

    Jump

  • Well I guess now I've gotta transition away from Hyprland. That fucking sucks, I just moved to it a month or so ago and really like the workflow. Anyone have suggestions for alternatives? Or I could just go back to KDE.

  • Open-Source NVIDIA Linux Driver Usage About To Become Much More Reliable

    Jump

  • I've checked it, just to be sure, it's definitely a 2.1 cable, but unfortunately the cable doesn't matter in this case. My monitors are good, but they're older. HDMI 2.0/2.1 wasn't around back then. I get good refresh rates over DisplayPort (I believe they have DP 1.4), and my RX 6800 XT had three of those, so I just naively assumed a 9070 XT would as well.

  • Open-Source NVIDIA Linux Driver Usage About To Become Much More Reliable

    Jump

  • The 9070 XT supports HDMI 2.1b, and unfortunately my Sapphire NITRO+ has two of them and two DisplayPorts. None of my three monitors support HDMI 2.0 or 2.1, so one of them is stuck at 60 Hz right now, and I'm pretty annoyed about it.

  • As a T1 diabetic, artificial sweeteners don't affect my blood sugar either. Caffeine does, though, unfortunately.

  • Telegram and xAI agreed a one-year deal to integrate Grok into the chat app; Telegram will get $300M in cash and equity from xAI and 50% of subscription revenue.

    Jump

  • The only problem with Telegram = IRC angle is that I can't scroll up in IRC to see what I missed throughout the day. I legitimately would love to switch my friend group to a self-hosted IRC server, but chat history is important.

  • RFK Jr.’s FDA chief says diabetics should take cooking classes instead of insulin

    Jump

  • This is an effort to kill anyone who isn't young and fit.

    Or also chronically ill. I'm (relatively) young and very fit, but I'm also type 1 and require insulin to live. It's eugenics, plain and simple.

  • What's a relatively minor thing to most people that you WISH you could have?

    Jump

  • A functional pancreas. Worked perfectly fine for 27 years, then my body just decided it was evil. Super neat.

  • Threadripper Pro 7955WX retail?

    Jump

  • Interesting, Amazon has other TR Pro CPUs, like the 7965WX and 7995WX. I guess the 7955 just isn't in as much demand.

    I'm much prefer a Pro since they have a lot more PCIe lanes than the non-Pros, but I may look into the regular TRs, just to see...

  • Votes for billionaires, shocked when billionaires act like billionaires

    Jump

  • In the TikTok video, no, but in the BlueSky video, he mentions he voted for Trump. Although, your point most likely still stands, because he doesn't place blame.

  • Your New Order Has Arrived

    Jump

  • Hahahaha... ha...

    sob

  • All the other brands went along

    Jump

  • That's one of the cool things about the framework, though, just the fact that you can, because I swap my ports all the time. I use it to game on my big TV at home, but I almost never need an HDMI port on the go, so I pop it out and pop in another USB-C or something.

  • One of my company's customers is a DoD contractor that uses the government version of Teams, which does require Chromium, unfortunately. Or at least, I haven't found a way to make it work on Firefox yet.

  • Mastodon's Founder & CEO Gives His Thoughts on Meta's Threads

    Jump

  • I'm preemptively defederating from Threads. But I'm not necessarily opposed to refederating in the future, if Meta proves benevolent. Some bigger Mastodon admins are going with a wait and see approach, but as the sole admin of a small instance, I'd rather not have to rush to defederate if shit hits the fan.
