Is it time for me to get a whole new pc, or is there anything I can salvage from this one?
  • I usually leave mine on game mode for day-to-day stuff because the mouse latency is unbearable otherwise. However when watching a movie or TV show, I'll swap it back over to cinema mode to smooth out frames and reduce artifacting.

  • As a fellow TV-as-a-monitor enthusiast, it might be your display. Most TVs do a lot of frame processing to give you smoother playback at the cost of latency, making games feel sluggish. My TV has a "Gaming" preset that actually turns off some of that processing, allowing for 60hz refresh rate and minimal latency. Might be worth checking your TV for a setting like that.

  • What are you working on this week? (Aug. 25, 2024)
  • Just started reading the Rust book. Made it through Chapter 3 and finished the suggested Fahrenheit/Celsius converter. Been trying to figure out the next suggestion, finding the nth number in the Fibonacci sequence.

  • Disney has made and destroyed many pop stars. Miley Cyrus explained in an interview that she had to act as crazy as possible for Disney to stop forcing her to tour as Hannah Montana.

  • Final Fantasy 14: Dawntrail's 7.0 graphics update really is a game-changer—breathing life, colour, and atmosphere into the 11-year old MMO
  • Do they still slow you to a snail's pace as soon as you progress to a new area? It felt so scummy losing my flying and mount speed as soon as I hit an expansion in a subscription based MMO. "Let's slow that roll there gamer, can't have you beating that content too fast. Why not buy a few more months play time?"

  • how can I remove an LLM from my Ubuntu computer?
  • Just as a general piece of advice, the --help flag will usually list out flags that can be used with a command.

    Also the tldr package is available for a lot of distros. Might be worth seeing if yours has it. It's like --help but a little more human readable.

  • Top post of PCMR on Reddit today XD
  • You see, the joke is that "dual boot" means you have two drives/partitions you boot from.

    "Duel boot" would imply your boot drives will take 10 paces apart from one another, turn, and shoot each other, one dying and the other emerging victorious.

  • Not who you asked but, Ubuntu is basically Linux from a corporation. They are forcing people to install 'snaps' instead of your typical .deb package. They are like flatpaks but way worse.
