    I've discovered Hippocampe Fou's latest album "LOdysée d'Hippo" and so far I'm enjoying it so much.
    His way of matching his lyrics to his instrumental is truly unique, it's an experience in its own right. Especially in the Rap genre.
    It's always really thoughtful and immersive. His text are really clever but it's in French. But even if you don't understand it, it's just a pleasure to listen to the track by itself, considering how good his flow is.
    This one is Ancient Egypt themed.

    Antares23 got a reaction from Bitter in What Linux distribution you use and why?   
    I use Fedora. Because It's the one that works the best for me. I didn't really wanna spend time troubleshooting, and Fedora was the less painful experience (my GT710 cause most distro to boot to a black screen, so I have to install them with basic graphics mode, when I can actually manage to boot to a desktop)
    I also like it because it's more up to date than Ubuntu and I just generally found Fedora to be more stable.
    It also give you a stock Gnome experience which I like more than the customized one on Ubuntu.
    Also tried Manjaro: even tho the gpu work out of the box, it's too unstable, the packages from the AUR tends to break the system way too easily, Debian: couldn't manage to make my GPU work (even under basic graphics mode with the new non free firmware repo in Debian 12, it just won't work) and I just don't have the time to troubleshoot it
     
    Basically, I just want the less painful and most straight forward setup process, install it and forget it.

    Everything I can find about the P106 + Plex is about windows. I don't care if it maybe works on windows, I use linux primary on my server. Somewhere I read there are also linux modified drivers, but was not able to find them.

    We didn’t recommend using the Chinese driver in our mining GPU video, but now, we’ll show you how to make Nvidia’s drivers work for yourself – And how to go deeper.

    How to mod the P106 driver
    Make sure Secure Boot is disabled and Windows is in testsigning mode Check your motherboard manual for information on how to disable Secure Boot Testsigning can be enabled by opening up a Command Prompt or PowerShell as administrator, then typing: bcdedit /set {current} testsigning on bcdedit /set {current} nointegritychecks on This can be done for a single boot by going to Start -> Power -> Restart and holding shift while clicking Restart, then choosing Troubleshoot, then Advanced Options, then Startup Settings - Once you get to the menu, choose to disable driver signature enforcement. After restarting, you’ll know it worked if some text is displayed in the lower right corner of your desktop Download and extract the GeForce driver using 7-Zip In the extracted folder, go to the Display.Driver folder and open nv_dispi.infusing Notepad++ Search for lines containing 1B87 (P104-100), 1BC7, (P104-101) 1C07(P106-100), and 1C09 (P106-090) Change each line's Section number to match the 1C06 (GTX 1060) line - On 416.34, that means from Section110 to Section108 On the third set of lines, the Section numbers will be different; Again change it to match the 1C06 (GTX 1060) line - On 416.34, that's Section109 to Section107 Save the file Install the driver as normal – Windows will complain that it’s unsigned; Click allow. Right-click the desktop, go to Display Settings, then Graphics Settings From here, you can force any game to use the P106 to render while your integrated GPU is used for display output. How to perform the SLI mod
    Make sure Secure Boot is disabled and Windows is in testsigning mode Check your motherboard manual for information on how to disable Secure Boot Testsigning can be enabled by opening up a Command Prompt or PowerShell as administrator, then typing: bcdedit /set {current} testsigning on bcdedit /set {current} nointegritychecks on This can be done for a single boot by going to Start -> Power -> Restart and holding shift while clicking Restart After restarting, you’ll know it worked if some text is displayed in the lower right corner of your desktop Install both graphics cards you wish to attempt SLI with The first three characters of the PCI device ID MUST match to enable SLI To find out what the device ID is, right-click the start button and click Device Manager In the Display adaptors list double-click the card you want to check. Under the Details tab, click the drop-down and then click Hardware IDs. It will look like this: PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1F07&SUBSYS_86701043&REV_A1 VEN_10DE means Nvidia, while DEV_1F07 is the device ID – In this example, an RTX 2070. So in order to run SLI, the other card’s device ID will have to also start with DEV_1F0 Download and install the GeForce driver as usual Download and extract the DifferentSLIAuto package Go to C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository and sort by date Go into the newest folder beginning with nv_dispi.inf Copy the nvlddmkm.sys file to the DifferentSLIAuto folder Open the install.cmd file in the DifferentSLIAuto folder in Notepad++ Replace the three mentions of nv_dispi.inf in install.cmd with the folder name we got the nvlddmkm.sys file Open the nvlddmkm.sys we copied in a hex editor (HxD) In HxD, go to Search, then Find, then click the Hex Values tab Search for 79050fba6b240e Position the cursor at the start of these values Replace with C7432400000000 (no need to delete first, just type over it) Save the file Reboot into Safe Mode with Networking Click Start, then Power, then hold shift while clicking Reboot In the menu that comes up, click Troubleshoot, then Advanced Options, then Startup Settings (on some PCs, this may be behind a “show more options” arrow) - Once the PC reboots, press 5 on the screen that appears. Run install.cmd in the DifferentSLIAuto folder as administrator Reboot into normal mode Enable SLI (hopefully)

    Aight, I'll finally bite. Though, since my coming out story is boring I'll tell the story of when I realized I was pan!
     
    This was my freshman year of highschool, just off of a bad break fup and feeling spiteful. When I say bad break up, I mean bad breakup. Cops had to be called and everything. Really not good.
     
    I had met my girlfriend from a mutual friend group, which included a rather tall and very flamboyant gay guy. Always thought he looked good, not in a gay way, just a solid looking guy. He was single and used to say he envied me and ex's relationship.
     
    My Ex loved this guy like her brother, and as I said one day I was feeling spiteful and made out with him right in front of my ex. I was expecting a negative response from her, which I sadly didn't get, not in person anyways.
     
    But then I realized I actually liked what I had done. After some thought I asked him out, and we dated for a couple months before I left the school. After that we just sorta drifted apart cause I didn't have any social media or real way to talk to him.

    If you can, i'd reccomend stepping up to a 250gb ssd. 128gb fills up real fast when you already have the OS on there.

    Antares23 reacted to mxk in $450 for a cpu and mobo VR gaming   
    From what I remember the 9600k doesn't have much of an advantage in gaming. I personally think the 2700x is a better choice, because games will eventually start to use the 8 cores that the 2700x has, and the 9600k only has 6 cores.

    Those PSU's aren't great, If you are looking at a budget PSU get the Corsair CXM 450W, it will be enough for your system and is a better option then what you have selected. A cheap PSU can fail prematurely and take other components with it. Also, efficiency does not equal quality, just because a PSU is 80+ gold rated or higher does not mean it is made with quality components.

    Better to have the option of PC gaming than to not have it, especially when the price is so low for the APU PC.

    Just start with the cheap APU system which will be fine for gaming and is easy to upgrade. Just need the PSU then in my above example build.

    The only motherboards to consider are the ASrock Pro 4 or MSI Tomahawk, the Tomahawk has a bit better VRM for if you upgrade to say a Ryzen 3000 8 core next year.
     
    and the RX 600 series of GPUs will be out soon, can either get one of those or a cheap last gen one in the near future.
