  • It might be that the data to both disks saturates a common link before the second disk reaches full iops capability, and thus the driver then writes at full speed on one disk and at half speed on the other, for twice as long.

  • I heard good word about Paradise Killer, in which you're also a detective and must figure out the truth

    The outer wilds is amazing. You should play it.

  • To be a victim of maga extremism, you must already be bigoted enough to think that it is a reasonable opinion to have to want black and LGBT people to die. She deserved what she got.

  • DevOps was a lie pushed on devs to make them become sysadmins, unfortunately.

  • Sure, but the pun still works.

  • It's where water comes from :)

  • Their engine is called source.

    The collection of libraries valve release to use steam (the piping, if you will), is called steamworks.

  • There's a guy on TikTok that has really funny experience to share because he learned japanese when he was living in basically a crack house with japanese thugs and he has a great japanese accent but it's basically the hillbilly accent

  • As if finance guys would have ThinkPads and not macs

  • Completely agree. Also, fuck the artificial scarcity culture in mk. Why are DSA drifters a collector item, they're pretty but there's nothing that says only 500 of them must exist.

  • So sick!

  • Custom T-shirts with extremely limited runs (hundreds) cost $10. Creators are selling them for $20+. Creator merch is a scam or if you want to look at it more positively, a donation with an item in return but no items sold by a creator is even close to a reasonable profit margin.

  • The soaking rain thing has happened to me with a not particularly water resistant phone and it was fine. The water ratings are more intended for direct splashes and full immersion.

    My opinion is that this is a comfort we can do without, especially given the ecology and consumer rights implications (not that a phone with a user replaceable battery is necessarily porous to water, plenty of phones meet both criteria)

  • That's the thing though, why is apple the only ones authorized to swap out your battery? That service isn't free, and they're massively overcharging you for it.

    It's also not impossible to build a phone that is water resistant and has a swappable battery, but that's besides the point. Personally I'd rather have a swappable battery.

  • How many times has your phone needed the weather proofing in the last 4 years? Mine is 0, at least twice. On the flip side, I have needed a new battery 2 times.

  • A few years ago there was a fantastic video detailing thorvald's PC and it is a beast, crazy how far we've come

  • While Microsoft and Google merely pretend to like open source but transparently hate it, it is (was) not quite as obvious that red hat wanted to capture the enterprise Linux market wholesale. What red hat has done is terrible for the ecosystem, much more so than Microsoft just throwing out worthless tokens of appreciation.

  • Both have heroes and are shooters, but the similarities end here, but you're overall right. From what I've seen of concord, it's just valorant with a mediocre twist, whereas deadlock has been my go-to game for the last week.

  • Apart from the mouse thing (which I'm skeptical about), cloudflare also correlates your traffic with other sites hosted on cloudflare. Bots typically don't visit many sites, click around there, find another one, etc, whereas humans will have visited other sites, will be slower at clicking the button, will have left comments on some sites.

  • The most likely explanation is that their previous implementation broke due to a website change, and they didn't want to bother with fixing it. People began opening issues for them to fix it, but now it looks like they're aiding people explicitly asking for piracy, so they can't win (and also I'm willing to bet it fucking sucked trying to support that particular website)

  • I get mine from AliExpress. They're by no means good, but I refuse to spend more than 30€ on plastic. I also get my board from there, there are some good deals on subpart boards that are actually quite serviceable.
