Sadly no, my Ryzen doesn't have an iGPU and I only have the one dedicated GPU. VMware's software? acceleration is partially useful however, there are some bugs requiring disabling transparency in Windows but various Direct X progr

If anyone tries running Photoshop under Windows using this and has good performance please tag me in a comment. I've migrated several times from Qemu, VirtualBox and settled on VMware player (for non commercial usage). I found that to

In my personal experience, consuming a deficit below TDEE without concerning macros isn't enough to consistently achieve my weight loss goals. I track everything using myfitnesspal and there's a strong correlation in my weightless

From looking over your Vagrantfile it looks like the project files are mounted from the host into the VM so ssh would only be required for tunneling to the db connection? (Although that can also be avoided by exposing a port or using bridge

I think they want a vertical bar versus horizontal, I prefer this setup for laptops too, e.g. I have the dock on macOS on the left and Ubuntu/Gnome it is the default. It makes a huge difference when vertical screen estate is at a premi

This is true if you put your code in the Hyper-V managed WSL2 VM but now you have the reverse problem of WSL1, i.e. access via Windows P9 is slow and things like symlinks do not resolve whatsoever (on the Windows side). In WSL1, access to f

Something about the article is off. If purchasing a point costs 10 cents and the jet requires 7 million points, his cheque would need to be for $70,000,000, not $700,000.

Same as experience here, i.e. it's not a popup but an icon in the address bar which needs manual user action to trigger (it also supports voucher codes). I do not like the feature, but it's not as UI intrusive as the article sugge

Throughout my career I've found Thursday is consistently "the day" when work people are most likely to go out together. In some places it may have been because the last Thursday of the month is payday, but largely I believe i

Windows Hello does require an IR camera AFAIKA, so a "basic webcam" is not enough. However, it's not clear if this exploit would still work if the custom USB device presented a moving IR video as opposed to a static image.

Apple have 13" models so it's fair to include in comparison IMO. Maybe things are better when comparing the 15" XPS vs 16" MBP but I believe the WiFi chip and precision touchpad hardware/drivers are the same. The sh

This looks very impressive, high specification available, 3:2 high resolution screen, but with a "sensible" resolution where it should be comfortable to run at 100% scaling and the customisability of the IO ports is very unique. D

As someone who mainly consumes Spotify using Bluetooth headphones supporting AAC (and one pair LDAC) but none Vorbis, I may end up subscribing to this. While it's arguable that there'll be no perceptible difference listening to 32

I found this out with my ASUS motherboard on my desktop. There's a UEFI option which bootstraps an automatic installation of their own software called Armory Crate which then invokes itself to install a load of "junk".

In my experience, a 3080 and PCI-E 4 NVMe is not enough to mitigate all bugs, it's certainly better than console videos I've seen on YouTube but many bugs seem to stem from the game engine itself. In no particular order: - cars dr
