I've had the Samsung Neo G8 since launch. Its been a good monitor but I'm starting to get weird issues like half the display flickering and when waking up from sleep, it gets stuck in the self diagnostic mode where it just shows full screen color mode. I would like to upgrade to another Mini LED.
I use my computer about 80 work - 20 Gaming, so OLED is not really an option for me. I also have no interest in hiding my task bar, using low brightness, and babying my monitor. Price also doesn't really matter to me.
My only real requirements are 4k, 27-32 inch, high refresh rate (I enjoy the occasional competitive shooter), and good text clarity (which this G8 doesn't have).
Is there a dec
I have a Seasonic Prime TX1600 PSU (The OG, non ATX3.0/3.1 one. So no 12vHPWR to 12VHPWR) and an Asus Astral 5090. I've been using the native PSU 12VHPWR to 2x8-Pin cable. I recently noticed that pin number 1 was inputting about 1 - 1.5 amps less than the other pins. This was an older cable that I used successfully for about 2 years with my 4090. Granted I don't think I was anywhere close to melting down, but I wanted to be safe. So I immediately replaced the cable with the adapter that came with the GPU, and started looking for a safer alternative.
I reached out to Seasonic support because I was looking for their new native angled cables 12V-2×6 cables. They informed me that they aren
Phoronix - Windows 11 vs Linux reivew of Ryzen 9 9950x
phoronix.com/review/ryzen-9950x-windows11-ubuntuI've previously configured gamemode to pin games to my 3D cache cores on my Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU. However, recently I haven't been able to get this to work. Games seem to span all cores (based on core usage) and I'm experiencing mild stutter in some games that are known to suffer from this on these types of CPU's.
I tried on 2 different distros. Arch and Fedora.
I have the "pin_cores=0-15" option set in in /etc/gamemode.ini file. When running gamemoded -t I get the following:
: Loading config

Hey there, I just want to check with other Viper v3 Owners here about the battery life on their mouse.
I run it exclusively at 1000hz and I'm only getting like 16 hours of battery life at most. I charged it to full yesterday its now sitting below 40%.
Is this common in these mice or do I have defective unit? I only bought it a few days ago so I can go swap it out at Microcenter. I updated the Firmware, and I'm running it on Windows and Linux (for work and gaming) and I have the same issue on both so I don't think its Synapse that's the issue.
I just switched to OpenSuse tumbleweed and I ran into some issues with Yubico authenticator. None of the "Accounts" (OATH Codes) configured on my Yubikey show up.
On the Desktop app I get "Failed to open smart card connection" error. In the CLI when I use ykman to try to get a key I get: ERROR: Failed to connect to YubiKey.

Something weird happened after I moved my homelab from bare metal TrueNAS to Proxmox. One of the disks in my Raidz1 pool is not added by ID, instead it was added by device name. Well, I added an SSD into my server tonight, and it seems to have shifted my device names down by 1 which instantly set the pool to "degraded" status and that drive set as missing.
I tried to replace the drive with the /dev/disk/by-id path, but I kept getting "This drive is part of the mainpool pool" error.
I also tried to export the pool and import by ID, but the drive still showed up as missing after the import.
zpool import -d /dev/disk/by-id/ mainpool
After importing with the above command I tried to res

Apple iPhone is not a monopoly – and you really don't want the US Government to win its antitrust suit
techradar.com/phones/iphone/apple-iphone-is-n...This may be kind of a noobish question, but why does my peak brightness vary so much based on if I have HGiG enabled or Tone Mapping completely off? Which is the "correct" setting?
The sticky guide at the top of the subreddit suggests that the peak brightness for the C3 is 0, 1000, and 1500 when configuring brightness using the Windows HDR calibration tool. But my "correct" settings with HGIG on (when the grey pixels blend in) is 0, 800, 800. With Tone Mapping turned off its more like 0, 2300, 2700. (or some variety of that. Definitely not 1000, and 1500).
This is on game mode with HDR turned on. I've been racking my brain for days trying to figure this out, but it seems like my panel's s
Hi,
My wife just got a Thyroidectomy yesterday. Her calcium levels were on the low side today, so she had to get calcium in through her IV. They weren't too low though. I guess my question is how much calcium does she need to take daily in order to prevent her calcium levels from dropping. Is any over the counter brand okay? From those who have gotten a Thyroidectomy, what did your doctor say? Our situation is a little weird because her doctor said her parathyroids were fine, they just had to attach one of them to her neck muscles, but anything to prevent a trip to the ER haha. Maybe her body just needs some time to process what all has happened idk.
Thanks for your help!
For those of you who have recently tried, for a modern Nvidia GPU (I have a 4090), which DE is the least broken? My intended use of the system is to do both Gaming and productivity work (Godot, programming, and a bunch of art tools), and also VR on a Valve Index.
I'm partial to Wayland, but I can go to Xorg if need be (and based on what I've been reading about Nvidia on Linux, I might have to).
I've used KDE on Nvidia in the past and I've had nothing but issues. Visual artifacts, games not starting, black boxes on certain things, and worst of all really bad performance on the desktop. Stuttering animations and unresponsive UI are by far my biggest pet peeves with KDE on Nvidia. Has this i
