I mean, it’s just a matter of time before it starts trickling down, right?

Right??

You can’t really disable rgb but you can set brightness with openrgb to 0.

I guess that’s good enough.

Do you speak from experience with 9070, or just in general as a “thing that OpenRGB does”?

I can just imaging an AI tool going in the messing one little thing up, and it being near impossible to find the error.

It doesn’t put formulas into the cells. It will write the formula for you, but you have to put it in yourself.

Also, there’s versioning in Office, so your spreadsheet blowing up for whatever reason isn’t a problem at all - just roll back to the previous version of the file.

Tell me, how do you imagine a PhD student getting in a firefight with five people and not ending up dead?

Also tell me: do you honestly believe that if such thing happened, the psycho-right wouldn’t spin this as “violent Brown attacks police who bravely take her down”?

Huh… Push Britain to get back to the EU and then you guys (and Australia, and New Zealand) could join on the basis of being in the Commonwealth!

do you have nvidia?

AMD. The distro I had did something weird where I was getting around 10-15 FPS on the Desktop until I added the community repos and installed drivers from there. Everything was great until I realised that Steam stopped working at all and Heroic Launcher wouldn’t launch any games. After hopping over to Garuda, everything is fine-ish. Every now and again I launch something like Hogwarts Legacy and just need to reboot because nothing loads after the disclaimers. Still haven’t figured out how to launch Mafia DE. Etc., etc.

i’m going to push back on this a bit (…) gaming on Linux isn’t like it was 10 years ago

I’m not arguing that, I myself said that it’s great today with things like Proton.

But saying that it’s “better than on Windows” is just flat out insanity.

but that isn’t Linux’s fault, it’s theirs.

Average Joe doesn’t care who’s fault it is, just that he can’t play his favourite game without issues or terminal hacking.

I mean, he always calls trade deficit a “subsidy”, and has since 2016. I honestly don’t think he understand what that concept means, he’s not that subtle with manipulation.

Most people also forget about another element in this puzzle.

Usually what happens is, you buy goods in bulk, and plan for that in advance. Say, you’ve planned a shipment of 1 million dollars worth of telescopes, $800 each. But now with the tariffs hit you can afford fewer telescopes per 1 million dollars. Which mans that - because you’re now ordering them at $1k - you can afford 250 fewer telescopes which rises the price per telescope due to a smaller order. So now you’re not paying 1.25 on the dollar from 800, but rather from 1k! Which makes you afford fewer, which rises the price, etc., etc., etc.

GamersNexus has a great documentary on this shit show of a situation, I do recommend giving it a watch. :) It’s oh so optimistically titled The Death of Affordable Computing.
