Can't say that I agree. I play rhythm games on a national level and benchmarking and reducing input latency is very important in those games.

The games I play (ITGmania) measure accuracy to the tenth of a millisecond, any fluctuation in your hardware latency can ruin your scores and nothing really is more annoying than an inconsistent setup where the latency change between or during a session is absolute hell.

Vibes and latency don't belong in the same sentence at all imo.

DaVinci Resolve 21 2 months ago

This has not been my experience. I have frequent crashes with Fusion that seem to be related to specific nodes. Checking my computers usage it doesn't seem like I'm running out of juice either.

When it works, it's really nice and I'm sold on the node based workflows, but it's not all entirely roses.

Resolve itself is excellent, Fairlight works just Ok and is still heaps better than Audition ever was. But Fusion I feel like hasn't seen enough love in the past few years.

The whole Reactor setup for installing Fuses feels really broken and for the free users they disabled those entirely in version 19.1.

The 940mx on this laptop doesn't support hardware video encoding, so I'm basically forced to run everything on CPU. I do also stream so it's definitely a nice to have.

I could run the game on the GPU and leave more CPU for the desktop and encoder, maybe I'd be able to record and play on Wayland that way, but there's some additional drawing latency if I run the game on the GPU, the frame buffer gets sent back to the CPU before it's drawn on the display anyways.

As it's rhythm games I mainly play (ITGmania, Stepmania fork), the additional latency for getting the picture out on the display it's not really working out great for me.

my experience us sadly the opposite. when I'm recording gameplay with OBS with x11 and xfce I have roughly a 7-9ms frame render time and with Wayland and any desktop env it creeps up above 16ms, which means I can't get a solid 60fps.

in all other cases other than gaming and recording, Wayland has been a delight.

this is incorrect lol. the water is just to help with humidity, to prevent a dry mouth and sinuses. all resumed cpap machines for example can be used without the water tank as long as you have the backplate.

the water in the tank is heated to increase the humidity of the air circulating.

cpap machines work by increasing the air pressure on breath-ins and help open your airways by keeping your genioglossus tensor veli palatini muscles engaged.

Yeah true. I have an old Asus X550L from 2014, a very budget / mid basic home laptop with the battery removed running as my server. I do some dev on it with VSCode remoting into it and Claude Code, run Jellyfin, Audiobookshelf, Teamspeak, IRC and TS bots, nginx, SyncThing and some static websites.

I'm still usually under 10% cpu usage and at 25% ram usage unless I'm streaming and transcoding with Jellyfin.

It's been fun and super useful. Almost any old laptop from the past 15 years could run and solve several home computing needs with little difficulty.

Huh what? I can easily sit in a sauna for an hour without breaks as long as it has some type of ventilation.

Smoke saunas a bit less, electric or wood stove saunas no issue. It's nice to take a breather once in a while but I'd honestly have no issues sitting in a 80-90 deg sauna for an hour as long as I have enough to drink with me.

One time I sat in the sauna for six hours with a few breaks between with a group of friends shooting the shit. I had a headache the next morning but I blame it on the Jallu and not the sauna.

Markdown without formatting isn't usually the nicest to read imo. I actually appreciate a well laid out and formatted document myself.

Also wysiwyg doesn't mean it can't be back and forwards compatible with markdown, it might just mean that it's a markdown editor gui with a preview.

Not a great way to handle the issue originally, but I think the CEO's response is more than fair.

I haven't had to contact Bunny's support so it's a bit disappointing to see this type of runaround from the support, but as an actual issue it seems pretty minor in the end.

I've been using Bunny for ~four years after looking at video hosting. In the four years we've saved approximately 50 000€ compared to if we'd gone with Cloudflare video streaming service and it's just been rock solid for us.

In this case yes but it's meant as a punycode scam prevention where common Latin alphabet letters are swapped for similar looking alternatives.

Ffmpeg continues to be the most impressive open source project in my opinion.

It's such a joy to use and I've had a dozen of weird use cases where it's been the perfect solution.

Lol what? You got it the other way around. Also out of the dozen or so friends in my friend group who had a PS2, none of us had a modded PS2 or pirated games.

The PS2 was popular on its own and it wasn't related to piracy.

I'm guessing the user you're replying to is meaning that the vscode default config file is 11k lines and the AI setting just one of many lines in the file.

I don't think they meant that their own settings are that long, just the default in the app and they're commenting that it's ridiculous to expect a person to find it there.
