Do you have an approximate timetable for the upgrades/downtime?

Thanks for all you do!

I'm proud to say I've spread the lemon party gospel on lemmy a few times, and the reactions are always worth it.

About a week ago you decided to make your lemmy account. A better idea would've been to learn how to fucking read.

They'd change the rules so they don't have to do that anymore, then make it illegal for anyone else to not do that.

HELL YES LFG

I think you meant for something that sits on my counter and turns ground up bean powder into PURE UNADULTERATED JOY ❤️

See @applebusch@lemmy. world's comment in this same chain.

Breville bambino plus. I love it. It's quarky with the cleaning (when it decides you need to clean it you CANNOT skip the clean cycle) but honestly probably for the best since if I could I'd just skip it too often.

Eggnog. Probably best for my health that it's only readily available for a few weeks of the year. We make our own but still, we don't do that but til we're reminded it's eggnog season.

My espresso machine. They're expensive. I do not know why they are, but they are. I hemmed and hawed for years about us getting one and finally decided fuck it. Im an adult, I want one, we can afford it.

In 2+ years the only times I have not made myself a cappuccino are when I have not been home to do so. It is one of my most used appliances. Espresso owns.

I mean yeah, same with adobe and loads of other enterprise software suites. Unfortunately, most of us have no way of convincing our enterprise to move off of their shitty suite. I personally use open his for as much as possible, but professionally I'm stuck with what my work makes me use.

I knoooooooow. I know arcgis is working on it at least. I'm a geologist, a ton of our geospatial programs require windows.

But I'm about ready to experiment with a dual joot for my home set up! I really never need windows for that anymore

Oh yes that's my fault, I meant quality mode for anywhere I said that I don't get 60 fps pretty much. I feel like I get 50-60 in performance mode on horizon but some of the more lish sections are pretty bad. I run basically every game in performance mode because to me the smoother experience in play is worth the dip in graphical fidelity.

Most games don't give the option of resolution, it's just "performance" or "quality" in the game menus. So I set the system to 1080p in the settings primarily because the PS5 thinks my display won't support 1440, which holds water because I have to force it on my desktop. I don't have the option to force on my PS5 I don't think. Do I?

And yeah, I get awful jittering on just about every quality mode but I don't think I've tried it since setting it to 1080. I probably should! The ones I know for sure were horizon FW getting CRAZY slow on quality, that was def 4K because it was one of the first games I got. Ghost of tsushima was a little better but iffy in entire sections of the game. Returnal was probably the best, and the only one I can remember not forcing to run in performance mode. Lords of the Fallen is most recent and it is BAD in quality mode. It's rough even in performance mode in big sections, but makes sense because it's one of the first UE5 games available.

My GPU is a Gigabyte 3070 of some kind. For all the hate it got for having low RAM (justified) it still smokes most games I run but again - I do 1440 almost exclusively, and disabled ray tracing for the lost part. It's a giant leap up from my 1070 which honestly was fine, but could only do 1080p 50-60fps for most games when I finally upgraded, and def struggled with some of the newer games.

I realize everyone has their own preferences but I opt to run my PS5 in 1080p more often than not, and that's on a 55" 4K panel. To me the smoother experience is completely worth the trade off in density. I hate running things in performance mode and getting 20-30fps. It looks choppy, feels sluggish, and is an inferior gaming experience for just about every type of game in my experience. On desktop I also prefer to force 1440 when playing on the TV. That display can only do 60hz but still feels better to me. The desktop card can put out a much better 4K experience, but I still feel like it's not worth the fps drop. I'll take stable 60fps vs a wobbly 40-50 all day.

Would I need to side load this on shield?

Is it difficult to install? Like do I need to side load it or can I install it straight from the UI? I am definitely over Google shoving non-stop ads into my paid for experience.

Ironically, Nvidia shield is a dedicated streaking device that can be swapped. Don't kid yourself, Roku is just as bad with the ads. They recently updated their UI to pack more apps into their home grid, so that they could show ads for other apps and shows. Recently mine says "continue watching" Supergirl in one of them constantly.

We've never watched Supergirl and don't even have the app it's on installed.

The hilarious part to me is that they aren't even good copies. They're fucking blurry and pixelated like they literally clicked "copy image", pasted it, and then stretched it out because they didn't have a higher res image to work with.

1440 @ 120hz is the absolute sweetspot for gaming idc what anyone says. 4k is completely unnecessary
