Not a single cover by Roger Dean? WTF?

Gaming@beehaw.org•Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of April 13th
4·7 months agoMorrowind.
Ages ago I got a new video card that came with bundled games, including the slightly-old Morrowind.
That was the intro for me to deep RPGs, and I fell hard.
A few weeks ago I decided to revisit it, and went with Open-MW and a vanilla experience.
So awesome.

Amazing, interesting, and relaxing jazz. You can thank me later.

Technology@lemmy.ml•How China Is Advancing in AI Despite U.S. Chip Restrictions

The USA needs China.
Your attack was weak, unfocused!
Much like the Gnome user experience! :-D
I don’t say much about it because it’s stupid to argue, but I’ve used a LOT of different desktop interfaces over the past 45+ years (yeah, really!), and GNOME…well, GNOME sucks. When Gnome3 was first released we all had high hopes for it improving on Gnome2 (which for those of us on Unix systems was a huge improvement over CDE), and instead it was buggy, clunky, awkward, and an enormous resource hog. Oh yeah, and it was massively unconfigurable. AND it continued to not improve for many many years, until most people I know switched to KDE or one of the other environments (MATE, Cinnamon, and xfce were very popular).
Gnome 4x added a touchscreen paradigm, whether you had a touchscreen or not, and made the experience worse in the process.
If you like it, great! Use it and love it all you want! I’ll play with it once every year or so just to see if someone has finally designed something that doesn’t suck so badly, but for a functional desktop, no thanks.
I think the fact that most of the ‘fringe’ desktops are well-known in the community because of people trying to escape GNOME is pretty telling.
Swordgeek@lemmy.caOPtohomelab@lemmy.ml•When adding disks to a Synology SHR volume, is the data re-laid out?
2·1 year agoWell, I’ve found some of the answer.
/volume1 is a single LV on a single VG - no surprise there. There are two PVs comprising it, each of which is a RAID5 group across an extended partition on the disks.
pv0 is /dev/sd[abcd]5 and pv1 is /dev/sd[abcd]6
Now what I find most interesting right now is that SHR supposedly required btrfs to operate - and yet, /volume01 is an ext4 filesystem.
Part of me would like to convert to btrfs, but I’d need a spare 10TB of storage just to back up to, before starting down that odyssey.
More digging, more questions.

And by “forgot” you mean "couldn’t affotrd,’ right?
Honestly, the first thing that came to mind when I saw the picture was that her son made her a crown, and she was proudly rockin’ it.

2·1 year agoI fought with Broadcom’s shitty website for hours, but finally have Workstation Pro, in which I will test my workflows in Linux.
Games and Lightroom will be a challenge, but I’m going to avoid Win11 at all costs.

It’s a simple question. They are deliberately misleading and lying to customers for unlawful corporate gain.

Geekbench did some testing a month ago, and came up with ‘comparable to a gtx 660.’
