    Ordinarily_Greater reacted to -rascal- in How does VRAM allocation work in GPU(s) of those in AMD APUs?   
    It *should* be configurable within the BIOS, HOWEVER, that setting could also be locked out.
    Particularly, if it is a laptop or a pre-built PC running a custom OEM (i.e. Acer, DELL, HP, etc etc) BIOS.

    also u won't get a lot of info from AMD because this is controlled by the game or application,  you can only set a portion of your ram to be "gpu ram" in BIOS, usually limited to 2GB iirc.

    APUs don't have VRAM they solely use system RAM. In the BIOS you can reserve a certain amount of system ram to be only APU ram and how much of the system ram should be shared.

    Look for Asus Prime B350 Plus, pretty good budget option and definitely better than the Crappybyte you chose.

    We are exploring other colourways, but right now we're focused on black and black/orange because changing the dyes CAN change the properties of the moulded part, so we want to make sure we get this nailed down before we start trying to alter the formula.

    I would invest in the pro controller tbh, Joy Cons still have drift issues.

    No, it's just almost 10 years of dealing with this crap with no improvement from what I can see today. It's not prediction as much as it's just description of observed situation.
     
    Literally every single comment section about any kind of Android update goes like this:
    - Any idea when update is coming out?
    - Oh, it's live, I'm checking for updates, still nothing.
    - It's been 3 weeks, why I'm not getting the update?
    - Is model X going to get the update?
    - Why is model X not getting the update?
     
    That's how I was involved when I used Android and it's pretty much a typical chain of conversation for pretty much any update that has ever been released for Android phones. Especially when big significant updates like Android 12 are involved, vendors always have some bullshit excuses to leave you out and force you to buy new phone to "update" the OS. Or they had shit policy in the first place and you were left out anyways. That's the problem I have with Android. The OS itself is great, it's the asshole behavior of everyone who make it and use it, starting with Google and their data hoarding behavior to vendors who seem to give no shit about it and only care to sell you more phones with "new" OS than deliver it to you as update. Detailed enough?

    Hopefully, yes.
     
    They've setup a few "no appointments first come first served" vaccination drives already, and it worked really well, so they'll setup more and more of those and I'm sure that'll help with 2nd appointments.

    Ordinarily_Greater reacted to Dutch_Master in Please help regarding resizing partition, just installed Fedora WS 33 and currently live booting (USB)   
    A lot of the advise you'll get here depends on how much data you have stored on the machine. If it all fits on the 32GB SD card, store it there and wipe the system clean by installing Linux on the entire disk. Although Fedora isn't bad, perse, there's more choice: Mint, Mandriva, OpenSuse are suitable alternatives for Linux novices. Debian/Devuan, Slackware and Gentoo/Funtoo are suited for more experienced users (although Debian/Devuan are also fine for new users, their installation tool is not so much targeted at this group and can be considered 'spartan' if you're used a do everything in a GUI).

    How much more cheaper compare to the Predator? GTX1650s is good enough for AC but 4GB VRAM is little bit concerning in 2020.

    you can buy them digitally on the e-shop on the switch. Bear in mind you pay a bit extra but its not that much.

    A plain Nintendo Switch without any games comes without any games, while a Switch bundled with a BotW game card comes with a BotW game card.
     
    There's also a Hulu app for Switch, and the Youtube experience is the same as the TV Youtube app.

    Ordinarily_Greater reacted to UpTheDons in I'm so late on this, asking Nintendo Switch questions...   
    It doesn't come with botw pre installed but a game cartridge if i remember correctly (i got mine back in 2017) The battery on the v2 is better (a relative has it) and i can say that it is a good purchase but $421 if your in the US is an insane price. In the UK the V2 is 275 in most stores so im gonna go ahead and im assuming your Canadian. The only problem i have with the switch is that the games that i find the most enjoyable and fun (the og Nintendo games that they made like oddesy and smash bros) do come at a high cost so i would make sure you are prepared to fork out the cash when you get bored of a game.

    But also I've shot the other car, which is from Canada. Unfortunately that iteration is no longer with us but the full rebuild is underway. For reference, many of these are full competition vehicles hence their classification in Unlimited class. Lightly modified cars that compete in Street or Street Modified are in most cases still legal for street use or double duty as HPDE.

    1. makes sense but even here in California if it is old enough that doesn't matter.
    2. odd restriction they are a safety feature 
    3. wtf the better safety system isn't allowed? I know I'm putting in 4 or 5 points in my modded civic

    7. I thought that was Germany only no?
    Na J type 10/10 is the way to go. you can drop them into a late 90s to early 2000s civic. there are kitted out J types in odessys that make 1400hp+ but I don't know the civics have enough space under the hood to go that far.

    It's "playable", but not enjoyable with 3500u.
    Yeah that Predator is more than enough for Assetto Corsa, even good enough for Assetto Corsa Competizione or any sim racing games available.

    Stirling isn’t either.  There are some two cycle diesels around.  They’re famously dangerous though, and quite rare.  They produce so much power per litre though that the temptation remains around.  Not sure there are any rotary engines at all currently being made.  A lot of old Mazda rx-7s still about though.

    There's also Miller and Aktinson cycle as well, and there's also hit or miss engines but I don't think those are used much if at all anymore.
