48hz is supported on few monitors, not often (but can be hit by gsync/freesync/VRR); 24hz is sometimes supported (often seen in TVs). And you can set it to 59.94, nobody is stopping you. This entire comment chain started with, ess

So set your monitor to 119.88 instead of 120. Theres a reason why monitors give you both x/1000 and x/1001 framerates.

I do one meal a day (OMAD). The guideline is approximately 0.5g-1g per pound of lean body mass. 0.5g minimum to maintain mass, 1g to body build. Anything more than 1 isn't useful unless you're trying to hypertrophy like Arnold and

Columnar stores were in use in games since at least the mid-90s. Very common way of optimizing for CPU caches.

Oh man, I put so many hours into Spring via Balanced Annihilation. Filled that missing part of my soul that TA and SupCom left, but SupCom 2 (an otherwise really good, but casual and much smaller RTS) didn't. Also, we don't speak

Huh. I didn't realize displays had gotten this efficient. I remember when LED backlights were more efficient, but not efficient (huge leap over CCFL, obviously). So yeah, sounds like the parent comment's Ubuntu is just gross

I agree. However, how do you go after people who have so much money they can literally buy their way out of any appropriate punishment? We need something stronger than the ICC.

To be fair, the only major complaint I have with that website is the gradient background (the strong red and strong blue) are both relatively the same perceptual brightness and tend to lead eyesight away from the content. Else, it looks lik

Who said I'm shilling for System76? If I'm buying a new laptop today, its gonna be a Framework. If I need to recommend something more inexpensive and casual, System76 exists, but I'd only recommend that to people have yet to

As of someone who discovered Plan 9 far too late to do anything about it: everything is a poor man's Plan 9 something. Everything. All of it. Plan 9 lived in the goddamned future.

`kill <tab>` will list all pids, `killall <tab>` lists every process name. fzf.bash just turns `kill` into `ps (args) | fzf`, and does not yet have an equivalent for `killall`.

Thats a weird strawman; compute in Vulkan is a replacement compute in OpenGL and legacy D3D, and as a twin sibling to compute in D3D12. OpenCL is the actual intended replacement for all the pre-standard APIs, and has achieved its goals. If

The only time I've heard this happening is on Ubuntu. Don't use Ubuntu, and switch to Debian or SUSE, and your problems go away. The only times I've ever heard of this not being Ubuntu pathology is people running builds of t

I wouldn't wish a Synology box on anyone. If you need a well supported NAS that anyone can operate, just slap TrueNAS onto a budget NAS box and be done with it. TrueNAS uses ZFS, and actively discourages btrfs due to a history of data

There is no reason to ever use btrfs, IMO. btrfs is the result of Oracle trying to clone, badly, ZFS. When they bought Sun, they discontinued development on btrfs completely, as they (thought they) owned ZFS. Nobody sponsors btrfs developme

Why do you think I can't use standard APIs on Nvidia? I literally just said same compiler does both ; Nvidia sits on the Khronos committee! They co-wrote the API that everyone uses, that their compiler also speaks!
