Doobeedoo reacted to Tan3l6 in Any Labs changes from new testing at Rtings.com
Is there really any need to rival Rtings.com? They seems to have a good standard for reviewing displays and some other PC parts, not to mention some home appliances.
In case of monitors it seems like quite an ordeal to compete with their reviews.

Doobeedoo reacted to Nexxus in Apr 14 2024. The day I killed the "Can it run Crysis?" meme
These were the OG ones it was just a quick and dirty experiment for fun the remastered DLs were huge, but also seeing how much the FPS was hit with each additional game that was added There was no way it would of been able to do the same thing with Remasteted...also I probably would of run into the Cryengine limitation issue with each of the 3 titles too which would of needed more homework to fix.
Nice AV too, still upset she didn't show up in Phantom Liberty

Doobeedoo got a reaction from foxbill86 in is AMD Radeon Anti Lag Fixed for CS2?
Yeah that one is fine. Under it used to be the + too.

You mean Anti-Lag+ ? That one caused problems, so was removed from the driver. It is said to be returning soon though. The regular Anti-Lag is fine and can be enabled.

They're just non-believers that they'll get it working first time, every time

11 for sure. Especially with latest hardware and 11 has been released for a while now too.

Doobeedoo got a reaction from Needfuldoer in You down woth OGG? No MP3!
Uh why compare low kbps MP3 even, why would one use that. Also streaming lol? 80$ headphones ok. If you want better quality don't use low bitrate files or stream or cheap headphones. Anyone mainly streaming music doesn't care or know better. I use local files.

Doobeedoo got a reaction from Fat Cat11997 in What is the best display for me?
Get 1440p 144Hz+ IPS one. LCD is (TN, VA, IPS) in general, from worst to best. TN is fastest but looks worse, VA can have better contrast then others but not as fast as TN or good looking as IPS, so IPS in 99% case best option.
Cons of LCD over OLED is in many ways, general picture quality, contrast, speed. But costs way more. LCDs have backlight that is on vs OLED per pixel light. So blacks will always feel washed or glowy on LCD and also they transition pixels slower between refresh thus blur in motion. They are not really HDR displays due to backlight.
Cons of OLED aside from price, if used for long with static UI elements like working all day on it, overtime may burn in the image. They have mitigations but not advised to use them for long hours at time with static elements content. Full screen brightness if you care, like full white will not flash you as on expensive LCD may. So if you are in very lit room it would be a con.

Doobeedoo reacted to Needfuldoer in USB flash drive losing data.
USB flash drives are disposable commodities. If it's not working reliably, replace it.

Doobeedoo got a reaction from Average Nerd in How is it that not more people switch to Linux?
You can disable a lot of stuff, though nothing is perfect. This was a thing all the way back from XP days, so I find it odd that people mention this always each ver.
Also, if one is worried about that as much, better not use a single online social media or platform or have email from known big companies.

Meh, many games have issues, and config process is just.. not it for issues on top.
Number of online games are just a big no.
Which well known distro that doesn't need ton of config or that software will work? Doesn't exist, some programs do not work or exist at all.
Where are you getting adds man? And familiarity is a very big deal and it's not the only, along is the software support, those two go also hand in hand that are a big block.
I don't use Windows as a store crap as you describe, I configure it easily update stuff and done.

Doobeedoo got a reaction from WereCat in How is it that not more people switch to Linux?
Well, mine is using more, I keep number of things in tray running. But really? Are we counting bytes of memory like RAM is an issue now? I'm not using my PC that I worry how many tabs I can open man. You'd have 16-32GB nowdays.
Yes I know, some don't want to mess with registry.

Doobeedoo got a reaction from Erioch in How is it that not more people switch to Linux?
But it's not, not that much really. 7 to 8 was the worst ever. 10 was better, to me 11 is around same to me, some things are better with modern settings finally improving and certain context menus. Maybe I adapt fast, though I do use new versions from start. But yes some things like tray settings that feel like a phone with more clicks is bad, but overall I prefer 11 over 10. Though sure both have odd design choices, like removed functionality or customization limits for no reason.
Thing is, any distro can pose issues, along with needed config setup. Thus one of the problems that is fragmentation that doesn't help Linux for mainstream.

One of these again...
Windows wise, I don't see a single add ever, you can configure UI with one of those third party tools easily that go beyond default customizations.
But to answer the question, in a understandable way... it's because it's dogshit still in many ways UI/UX wise and general out of the box usability and look and feel vs Windows for general folk. Even those slightly tech savy. People today get baffeled with a command console in a game if it has, you expect them for OS yet they don't understand folder structure.
Fragmentation of distros is a huge issue too. Also software support is not there, programs, drivers for stuff and games. 99% games my ass, more like the other way around.
Linux has still a long way to go so it can be a dumb proof Windows alternative let alone replacement, not until everything gets in line and with dev support. Would need a proper good distro.

It literally is a thing versions behind so. I have no bloat as some prebuild, really some MS stuff that I occasionally use is there I keep. Can't say that's bloat really.
Context menu for some basics that are there is fine for me, the old one you just shift click it. Can make it default with third party tools.
