  • Steam Deck gets a Battery Charge Limit control in the latest Beta

    Jump

  • The problem is that the Steam Deck APU doesn't support amd_p_state and you need to rely on auto_cpufreq. This explains why the power consumption in sleep is so high.

  • I implemented the same on my laptop with tlp. It is actually pretty easy to do so.

  • GeForce RTX 5060 Driver Won't Be Releasing Before Retail Launch: NVIDIA Supposedly Doesn't Want Reviews To Go Live Before Sales Commences

    Jump

  • True, they should be 5050 or lower class, what NVIDIA did the last couple of years was to upgrade the class of every card 5050 -> 5060, 5060 -> 5070 etc. and as a result that increased the rift between 90 and 80 tiers of cards and make the generational performance increase lukewarm at best.

  • Same with 5060Ti 8Gb. We have an extreme greediness and planned obsolescence in full force on display here.

  • Update: About the BLOBs in Ventoy · Issue #3224

    Jump

  • Fair point, and I am happy that we can engage in a civilized conversation without turning toxic. So kudos for that and for your openness.

    Regarding the issue of the radio silence. It might seem odd to you, but you should also understand that sometimes when you are a solo developer you need to prioritise tasks and define what is more important. Whether it is the continued development of the project and bringing new features to the table or answering the security concerns of a handful of people. He said that addressing this problem is rather complicated and time consuming and perhaps he was procrastinating on that just because he didn't want to deal or spend time on this issue.

    My point is that it is better late than never and let's give him the benefit of the doubt. Because I would rather believe in the inherent good nature of people than suspect everyone of ill intentions.

  • My problem is that a lot of people are giving a lot of shit to open source developers, who are creating great software in their free time.

    Instead of enjoying their free time, they give a lot of it to the community, and then they get accused of wrong doings if the quality of their code isn't at enterprise level. The problem is that people are being toxic to them and this makes them less likely to continue doing that. I am trying to give credit as I know how hard it is to build and support some software and I want the open source community to thrive and not turn into a toxic cesspool.

    Jia Tan was a big warning for everyone, I admit, but if you look at the big picture he was a single person in a sea of open source projects and honestly speaking if we are talking of state sponsored attacks, I would say that big corporations like Cisco, Fortinet, etc. would be more of a target than small open source projects. I just wish we could give the guy some credit for all his work and at least let him prove that those blobs are harmless.

    I also think a big part of your qualms is the fact that he is Chinese and you are less likely to trust because of your bias.

  • The guy is trying to address the issue and he is building this in his free time. Give him some credit at least, I am sure this is consuming a lot of his free time.

    I personally find this Ventoy an amazing piece of software and he also seems to be willing to address the issue and be more transparent in the future which is also commendable.

  • Nvidia announces RTX 5060 release date of May 19 for both the $299 desktop GPU and $1,099 gaming laptops

  • Even more considering how much crippled and dead on arrival this card is. I would be seriously surprised if it is even faster than a 4060 Ti. And this VRAM configuration is just pathetic

  • Is upgrading the ssd easy enough that it is worth the cost savings?

    Jump

  • Absolutely, the best upgrade you can make.

  • Here's the most played Steam Deck games for April 2025, Balatro still top but Oblivion Remastered sneaks in second

    Jump

  • I just wish the SD was a bit more powerful. Recently especially with those UE5 games we need to install some custom scripts just to make them playable and usually they don't even look good. I love the Deck, but Steam should really update the APU.

  • Hate to say it, but Docker compose is giving you the best flexibility and portability of your files. Any of those services can decide tomorrow to enshittify their services and you will be left with nothing.

    Look at Plex, now they require Plex pass to stream your own content.

  • Any S3 compatible server where I can define where individual bucket storage is?

  • Why don't you do some bash scripting and route files to different buckets depending on their extensions or mime types? You can easily do that with rclone for example.

  • For me the only good thing of consoles are the discs and the ability to buy/sell them. Apart of that, they just offer you some convenience, but nothing more.

    Usually games for one console are not playable in 1-2 generations, you can't install mods, you can't upgrade the GPU or the CPU.

    PC offers a lot more flexibility, unfortunately after COVID and now the AI craze, the prices of the GPUs went bananas. Not to mention that you can usually play a lot more games on a PC and the STEAM discounts and prices are much better compared to consoles.

  • RTX 5060 Ti 8GB - Instantly Obsolete, Nvidia Screws Gamers - hardware Unboxed

    Jump

  • The whole fact that NVIDIA is not allowing AIBs to send the 8GB card to reviewers is quite telling. They are simply banking on illiterate purchasers, system integrators to sell this variant. That's another low for NVIDIA but hardly surprising anyone.

    Planned obsolescence.

  • Is it worth migrating docker apps to truenas scale community apps?

    Jump

  • Yes, and Nix is another bag of worms. My suggestion is first try to backup your Docker compose file and the configuration files, you can define in .gitignore which files or dirs to ignore and not backup. You don't need any automated installation for your server, as it is fairly standard but you can easily do that if you run it as a VM on top of Proxmox and just create a snapshot of your VM.
