I’ve had issues on Linux as well! Granted, those have been due to the package maintainers pushing out a bad configuration file and refusing to fix it after they were made aware of it
Has issues with Nvidia drivers in the past on both operating systems. They claimed it was hardware related but everything pointed to a fault in the common driver code causing random hard freezes. On Linux, I was able to recover by going into the lower level console and manually reloading the drivers and modules. Haven’t touched Nvidia cards since then. Even Evga, who manufactured the card, agreed with my diagnosis. Very irresponsible of Nvidia!
Yep! Can’t do 10 BPC without proper driver support! It’s quite nice when working with photos 🙂
I did used to like tweaking things but support has gotten so hairy (hello cousin It!) that I mostly just use the basic stuff now, outside of theming that is. Still like tweaking the snot out of GTK 😛
We need more game discussion going on!
Weird! Yeah, definitely try doing a clean install of the full driver package and seeing if that helps. A lock may have gotten set somewhere for who knows what reason. These things can get strange!
Updated the AMD drivers from 23 to 24 the other day and, while the update itself went smoothly, there were some oddities after install. I always try to leave the settings at the defaults when I can to keep wonkiness away and after the update the fans kept revving up more in non-resource intense programs (this was on Windows). I tried capping the frame rate in Adrenaline using both Vsync settings individually (didn’t have them both on at once) but those settings didn’t seem to have any effect and things were still hitting 600 FPS (need to report the bug to AMD). The default profile is HYPR-RX under Gaming -> Graphics so I changed that to Default and everything went back to normal. Definitely a bug in Adrenaline there but if anyone has issues with version 24, try changing the profiles. 🙂
Could also set up a sort of planetarium but that may be overdoing it a bit. We don’t want tech overload to set in! That’s one of the many complaints about Universal Studios: too many screens. Personally, I don’t mind it but a lot of other people do.
Wouldn’t mind having miniatures of astronomical bodies around the home. Going to need to look for a source!
Could do a fun little ASCII art like thing, sure. Maybe include it in the technological history section? Put you in a real rogue-like! 😀
Yep, moving walkways are a good idea. They’ll give the illusion of freedom while making sure the crowd keeps moving in the proper direction 🙂
Redirecting things wouldn’t be too much of an engineering challenge. We could simply reverse the direction of the motors for the connecting conveyor belts, sending them to a different belt that was previously covered by a scene now removed (probably underground so people don’t look up and see the works)
Been having some issues with my hand muscles getting strained when doing fine tasks with my fingers since January, such as preparing salads and working with screwdrivers. Any ideas for how to keep it from happening? It’s rather annoying as I lose the strength in the digits for a couple of days after they get strained and need to take it easy. Maybe a stress ball would help?
It’s becoming increasingly obvious that I’ve outgrown this human body. 😛
Just realized I didn’t reply to the theme park thread two months ago. Will try and fix that soon! Sorry about that.
Perfect. Thanks! They could have made that clearer! I do lose weather information, which was helpful, but don’t miss the news ticker. 🙂
Sounds good. No hurry! My tools came in the other day, just haven’t had a chance to get things sorted yet. Will get there! Also need to see if some reading glasses help with the eyestrain I’ve been experiencing. 😛
Yeah, could be the CDN doing something or it could even be something like an embedded media post not being able to load. That’ll also do it
Yeah, I’m not sure what’s going on. So, apparently, subscribed topics send you an email notification while favorites are just a bookmark in your personal list.
Looking at the full list of notifications over here, it seems that it lists only posts that have been posted in topics you made, as mentioned, but the full list differs from the hover menu. Not sure why.
It would be nice to have an option for subscriptions to send notifications through the forum in addition to email (and a toggle to just do one or the other if desired) to make it easier to keep track of things. Would also be nice to get @ mentions and quoting notifications but those would be more useful in a larger community (still optimistic!)
I somehow missed the terahertz revolution in science, it looks like….
The shop didn’t order the snowman cover for Power Girl. Makes me sad. 🙁
They do tend to be hit or miss on the event related covers so I always pick a back up if I’m not a big fan of the main cover in case they didn’t order the event ones. I may need to ask them how they decide which ones to order sometime
