Do you have adaptive brightness enabled? For the longest time I did not realize that the screen doesn't achieve max brightness despite the brightness slider manually set to the max unless it's enabled.

My previous monitor, even at minimum brightness with flux enabled, was still uncomfortable to view at night. I finally invested in a monitor with low minimum brightness (~0.5 nits) and couldn't be happier.

750 W seems like overkill for a 5600x + 6700XT.

>Modern cars are far more efficient, performant and easier to drive than a 15 year one

Can you clarify what being "easier to drive" means?

I'll play this, but all these remasters make me wonder if Blizzard is running out of ideas.

>Higher egg consumption (more than 1 egg/day) was associated with a significantly decreased risk of coronary artery disease

Is there an upper ceiling where the benefit goes away? I go through dozens of eggs a week.

I did not realize the MIT License had so many variants [1]. Compare that to Apache License 2.0, which has one canonical form [2]. For this reason alone, Apache seems like a plainly better choice (IANAL).

I'm glad I decided to go with 32 GB of RAM for my current PC build. No longer need to close any tabs!

Noob question: how does food work on these multi-month hikes? Are there stops along the way where you can resupply? Do you forage?

> Games are developed on cross platform engines. I can't remember the last game I played that was Windows-exclusive.

You may not play them, but a significant number of popular[1] games are Windows-only.

Yes! How should we organize this? Maybe start with an IRC channel?

I wonder why these complaints only seem to come from players of team-based games. I have never heard anyone call for an outright removal of skill-based matchmaking in 1v1 games like Starcraft or Super Smash Bros. Is it because the lack of teammates means you can only blame yourself for losing?

I once had to debug an online service from a cruise ship. The network connection was painfully slow due to being over satellite. SSH is practically unusable with that latency. After suffering through that ordeal, I now take much greater care when developing software that requires internet access. Perhaps others could learn from this experience.

I think you meant Snapcraft instead of Starcraft :)

It certainly caught my attention!

>Sure i shaved 4g on my $400 waterbottle holder.... but when i weight 80KG.. and have another 2kg of water with me, does that 4g really matter?

Plus don't cycling competitions set a minimum bike weight anyways?
