I read the article but I'm still confused as to why anyone would want to smuggle ants.

None of your listed use cases will even come close to taxing the 6600k. It's going to probably sit happily in idle states most of the time.

Proxmox also has great snapshotting and backup features. Makes it easier to mess around with your containers/VMs without worrying too much.

I appreciate the hw unboxed and gamersnexus style videos, where they give us all the information in context, and we can choose what is relevant to us. It's not for everyone but I like how they cater to enthusiasts.

Unfortunately, as someone who isn't looking to upgrade atm, the only thing I get out of this video is that the current climate for GPUs is terrible with no relief in sight.

I don't think they're saying it's good economics and yes, for the most part, we understand how these tariffs will affect us.

But there's a lot of anger at Trump here. Booing the American national anthem is not something we do lightly. I haven't seen people this united for a common cause for a long time. I regularly see people checking labels at grocery stores to avoid buying American even if we have to pay more.

We know a recession is likely for both countries and we'll be hit harder by it. It's a small price to pay for our sovereignty.

So what exactly are the rules here about discussing various providers and sources. I'm not a reseller (have no intention of becoming one) but I do have useful info to share. Would be nice to have a dedicated lemmy community that is safe from the usual takedowns & spam.

Agreed but that's just life in Linux in general. If epic and gog don't want to do the work to have a legitimate option in Linux (makes sense given market share), we'll keep doing the best we can with the hacky options while supporting the platform that is putting in the work.

Running a remote instance without some sort of IP rotation became infeasible. I've been running it locally since google started actively trying to kill invidious. The only reason that still works is because they want to avoid collateral damage that could affect other people in the household.

Welcome to the rabbit hole of selfhosted note-taking apps. https://selfh.st/apps/?tag=Note-Taking

Unfortunately, this is going to be a bit of a journey. You'll probably end up going through a few of these options until you find one that works for you and fits your workflow.

I found it very illuminating as someone who doesn't follow the conflict that closely. Moed was there to push a narrative and Brown could've done better to counter some of the lies. Respect to Canadaland for attaching that fact check to the interview.

I feel like I'm limited to pixel phones since they're the only widely available phone that doesn't void the warranty for unlocking the bootloader. I haven't tried roms in a few years but I like having that choice. Fairphones can be a little hard to get. Are there other options? Lineage support would be ideal.

We'll have to wait ~ 2 years since the next round of AMD cards are rumoured to be midrange cards. The Steves are right that if A.I is still as profitable for both AMD and Nvidia by then, expect prices to go up for any flagship. It wouldn't make any business sense not to.

First point is more true today than it was in the past. It is impossible to build a gaming pc for $400-500 that is capable of playing most modern games at high settings (without RT) and play at 60 fps. The gpu capable of doing that is around $300 by itself.

I think the longevity of consoles also plays a large part in their appeal. Knowing you can use the system to play at consistent performance levels for 7-8 years is a comforting thought.

For the PC side, I'm not sure about your point about drivers. Nvidia/AMD/Intel regularly release day 1 drivers to improve compatibility with new games.
