AdrianTheFrog , to memes in "Soundblaster" was such an 80s/90s name for a computer part.
@AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world avatar

yea, IDK how it works as I've never had a computer back then, but the quoted reply makes it sound like getting a sound card would take load off of the CPU.

Not in the same way, as you aren’t using the integrated gpu at all if you get an external one. I guess if you’re talking about shared ram this makes sense though.

I’m using a cheap one of those from amazon for my headphones on my laptop because the audio jack suddenly stopped recognizing when headphones were plugged in. (although I still get a dmesg error log when I stick a q-tip in to the jack? If anyone knows how to debug this, please tell me)

AdrianTheFrog , to Ask Lemmy in Lemons(?) of Lemmy, what is something that feels so obvious to you that you just get lowkey pissed at the world for not knowing?
@AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world avatar

Language is always going to change over time. There’s not much anyone can do about it, whether they like it or not. And if you understand what is being said, does it really matter? There have been language mistakes that have slowly been formalized into written language in the past, and I’m sure that will continue into the future.

IMO writing is only really ‘wrong’ if it doesn’t convey the intended meaning or tone (which I’m sure happens a fair amount as well)

the idea is that god created semi-hairless primates intentionally to look similar to him. IDK how that is supposed to fit in with our knowledge of natural history, it’s weird to me that people who understand evolution can still think “well some of this is obviously wrong, but perhaps these completely unprovable parts (that seem to rely on the other parts) are right?”

AdrianTheFrog , to Technology in Apple Reportedly Suspends Work on Vision Pro 2
@AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world avatar

Are there still no 3rd party controllers? It seems like controllers like the quest pro has (that can track themselves) would be an easy match. I guess meta is spending millions on development though, so it’s probably not something easily made by a small company.

I would think Bluetooth should provide enough bandwidth, but IDK if apple’s OS is configurable enough to support something like that.

@AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, I think it could be useful for CAD or 3D art (with proper software) but I can’t think of many other jobs where it would be all that helpful.

Everyone knew that they would release a cheaper model, and it was always their plan. That’s why it has ‘pro’ in its name.

AdrianTheFrog , to 3DPrinting in [Purchased Bambu A1 mini] Low End FDM for Miniatures, Hobby Parts, and Messing Around?
@AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world avatar

Do not get a base ender 3. Get something direct drive with input shaping and auto bed leveling if you can. If you want a printer that "just works" where (after some setup) you can just press a button and get a print, auto bed leveling is a must-have IMO. I don't have one myself, but I think the neptune 4 for ~$220 is a good option, anything else with similar specs would also work. Look at some reviews on youtube.

AdrianTheFrog , to Technology in 512MB ram is nothing now
@AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world avatar

A raspberry pi zero 2 w ($15) has 512 MB of ram

Are a wiki and a discord mutually exclusive? They seem to fill very different roles.

AdrianTheFrog , to internet funeral in Google ad on a magazine from 1999
@AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world avatar

yea, its funny to see xkcd.com/792 from 2010, back when google wasn't evil

AdrianTheFrog , to Technology in The Internet Archive is under a DDoS attack
@AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world avatar

I would say the distinction is that lemmy doesn't have a personalized algorithm.

@AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world avatar

IDK, blender.org got DDoS-ed for a while too. It seems like it would take a lot of resources for no possible benefit to anyone involved.

AdrianTheFrog , to Technology in FBI Arrests Man For Generating AI Child Sexual Abuse Imagery
@AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world avatar

Well, with models like SD at least, the datasets are large enough and the employees are few enough that it is impossible to have a human filter every image. They scrape them from the web and try to filter with AI, but there is still a chance of bad images getting through. This is why most companies install filters after the model as well as in the training process.
