I don’t think it would matter that much since a desktop at 3k is very similar on modern hardware to a desktop at 1080.

But I’d be interested in someone who had the hardware to test this. Right now I use my laptop for school work, and in trying to squeeze every ounce of battery life I was running my display at 45hz instead of 60hz. I had a free day during the summer so I charged it up, ran a YouTube video on repeat and timed the battery life, then changed the display frequency and it was like a 2 minute difference. I also tried it while running a second 1080p monitor through hdmi and the difference was something like 10 minutes. Like, so small a difference or didn’t matter.

I don’t have the data sheet anymore so these numbers are anecdotal etc etc YMMV. The biggest change for me was buying a 65w PD battery bank and keeping that charged in my bag.

Blog posts and peer reviewed articles are not the same thing.

Yeah, sometimes there’s something else outside could have been saying but not here.

Here it’s clear as day. And the host says nothing at all, which says a ton about her.

Thank you. I was too lazy to find it.

So, at one point there was 14 competing standards. That was too many, so a bunch of nerds got together and made one all encompassing standard. One that had all the best parts of each other standard.

Now we have 15 competing standards.

I’ve enjoyed my time on fedora. It’s recent enough that my hardware works when I upgrade, and stable and supported enough that I haven’t had to go out of my way to get something working.

The author gets to the crux near the end. Trump supporters don’t come to speeches for policy, they come for performance art. That’s what they expect from their leaders, because that’s what they’re trained to expect.

Between American entertainment trying to blur the lines between fantasy/ reality, and 24 hour news networks making everything a big deal the public at large has atrophied critical thinking skills.

“Is it more important that democratic elections continue, or that your party win?”

“Well I do like being on the winning team…”

I lost my friggin glasses two weeks ago, it’d be nice to find them.

I never heard of this game, except for how poorly it’s performed. I didn’t see any sneak peaks, or ads on the Playstation store. I didn’t hear about it from friends or guildies.

I know that’s a sample size of one, but no one I know or play games with had it in their radar at all. This game showed up one weekend with some drama over psn accounts or something, then flopped and I still know almost nothing about the actual game.

I saw more information on The Finals than I saw on this.

On Windows or Linux?

Compelling, but I don’t want to break the set.

Look, if someone cut me a cheque right now, for payment of my bones when I’m done with them I’d take it in an instant.

That’s not what’s happening here, those are likely bodies that didn’t meet the grade for medical/scientific use so they were sold off, which is gross and shitty.

However, bidding on my meat carcass starts at $5000.

I mean, yes in theory, but it’s also a social contract. We shouldn’t allow people who advocate for violence or harm against other people.

There should be no censorship in theory. In theory, communism works. In theory.

User choice is an accident. Got it.

This was the weirdest thing. That dude had energy, and it tanked his run. One time he did a weird thing and it ruined his chances, now we’re counting the weird things people do daily and it has no effect.

I loved my Xperia XA2, but when the next android update came down the pipe I literally lost features.

Naw, it wasn’t a bad experience overall, once I fell into the habit of mixing sick days with vacation days.

They had some exploitable policies, doctors notes for 3+ sick days in a row but no questions asked about 1-2 days, vacation days with 2 weeks notice one day at a time with no right of refusal if there’s proper coverage.

This meant you could book Wednesday to Friday off two weeks in a row, and call in sick Monday/Tuesday two weeks in a row, giving you 10 days off for the cost of 4 sick/ 6 vacay. Other exploitable shenanigans were possible around Stat holidays.

The front line managers knew what the situation was, but HR never got wind unless something tripped the system,so if everyone works together on their sick days it was pretty good.

I worked really hard at my first year at a big company and didn’t take any sick days. During my performance review, I scored 4/5 for attendance, even though I arrived early for every shift and did every overtime opportunity. When I asked my manager, she said it’s policy not to hand out 5’s because it sends the message that there’s no room for improvement.

No one could tell me how I could improve my attendance.
