    Ubuntu 24.04 LTS released

    We switched during the whole alama, rocky, stream thing 2 years ago. I ran prod workloads after like a week of testing and it was absolutely fine. Personally my production workloads have always been on Ubuntu; the biggest being my front end nginx servers and those have cruised alone with no...

    Does anyone here overclock their video cards? Is it really worth it?

    damn honestly? no. Not anymore. I do it when I first get them, just to see how far they go. Thats it though. I stopped years ago. Overlocking was so much different when I was growing up with PCs though, they might as well have put chains on me. Architectures are also getting very strict and...

    Stable Proton 9.0 Version Released With Multiple Fixes and Improvements

    It was a few years ago but it wasn’t a great experience. Given that they rebased off of upstream wine just use that, or see of glorious eggrole still maintains a wine-ge repo

    Cybersecurity - OSINT Software for Linux

    In that case take a look at this repo https://github.com/jivoi/awesome-osint And services like shodan. Kali Linux specifically I think has some built in osint modules and if they don’t or they aren’t what you are after you can install them yourself. The repo above will have info on specific...

    Cybersecurity - OSINT Software for Linux

    What? You want to learn security without study? That’s not going to go well. It’s a lot more complex than using software. The software is the tool; not the cure. You will still need to think. I will restrain myself but go look into the Security+ there are free resources on YouTube, people...

    Sony Reverses Decision of Mandatory PSN Account for Helldivers 2 After Negative Feedback

    I think it’s already dead. Too many people take steam reviews as the gospel (they review bombed it because of policy not gameplay) It’s not like those 200k people will delete their reviews. It would also be up to steam to retro actively re add the game to the 170 countries it delisted from ( I...

    NVIDIA to Only Launch the Flagship GeForce RTX 5090 in 2024, Rest of the Series in 2025

    way too overpriced and not even remotely worth buying at that. GPU prices are so bad it's crazy, what a real shame. Still plenty excited for what nvidia, amd and intel make this generation. From technological perspectives anyway. I try not to let price and availability tint what I think of the...

    Only some humans can see refresh rates faster than others, I am one of those humans.

    I did mean IGN woops For sure, I was just confused because it was stated that the article being referenced was based on dwell and not actual fluidity which was being discussed so it caused confusion. Thanks for clearing it up. Though I must admit, starting a thread about one thing and...

    Only some humans can see refresh rates faster than others, I am one of those humans.

    I think? The OP linked the research paper and the TOMS article that is using the research paper on LED flicker to apparently extrapolate fluidity? That toms article and this thread then are just touching speculation?

    Only some humans can see refresh rates faster than others, I am one of those humans.

    I took a look at the actual journal and while I didn’t read every section the section specific to testing methodology indicated most people started to fall off as they got closer to 60hz. They briefly used 80hz as a baseline and had them work lower from that. I didn’t see anything in this...
