I have seen the soap opera effect on my Samsung oled, I just wonder if it can get any better if I have multitudes the processing power.

If it is reported, then it can be done. But my question is with what? :P

Still, want to mess around with my overkill hardware. :P

 

I guess I want to see whether there are some advanced solutions so I can play movies and anime in 120fps 4K.

Is gamescope pretty much the only solution in case of games?

Im not sure. Wouldn't it annoy you to have a bunch of discussions in your c/linuxhardware feed you cant really take part in because they are imported?

We dont want to make it feel lile a lurker botfed feed either. Separate it so people know it is there if they want to query for important info. You can crosspost if you want.

Have reddit data dump sublemmys named like c/r_linuxhardware which is periodically updated, no commenting or posting ability.

Number one issue is to be able to actually look up accumulated linuxhardware content without reddit.

For these guys? Yes! Probably about HIV or something.

That is a pretty standard to phrase it that way. I cant make you invest more brainpower into reading my stupid comments but I cant downgrade my phrasing any more than this.

I was talking about the twitter post the article references? Its almost like my first sentence has something to do with the second.

Oh, another news about "who said what" on a social site crammed into 10 posts with 2 sentences each?

Back in the day they would have straight up banned you from most forums for that.

Gets off the boat, gets out his gun: "Let me show you a magic trick!"

Im planning my new config and one of the primary issue is that Im unsure whether 7950x3d is worth the hassle. If I went with 7950x, I would surely want to fiddle with overclocking.

As far as Im aware, 7950x3d can be overclocked, but only the one without the 3d cache. How reliable is this?

Also, I suspect that the TDP difference is a non-issue, as it is mostly just a limitation of the 7950x3d thermals rather than actually better power consumption.

Also the L3 cache is 64mb for the 7950x vs 128mb for 7950x3d. How much does that matter?

Things I want to do: gaming, software development, virtual machines, VR, AI related work. Im asking here since I mainly want to know about the status on linux.

 

Im not sure how it would fair as a regular workstation. Apparently the Ampere Altra is already being used for remote gaming workloads in China and it utilizes RTX 4090 for that.

It looks like a pretty solid value for 128 cores at 3000 bucks. Maybe even 32 cores for 2000. It is even competitive with M1/M2 macs and Epyc/threadripper.

 

I have been looking at Fairphone and Volla, and it feels like the Smartphone scene for Linux is going very strong right now.

Think of it like this: We got 3-4 end-user ready Ubports smartphones, ~~made by IN Europe~~(Volla/Gigaset is), with recent hardware, swappable battery, very good service and repairability in various formats. You can even purchase Gigaset phones (commercial equivalents of Volla) in stores/Amazon for a very good price.

The immediate orbiters of Linux smartphones like Fxtec, Planet Computers and Jolla are also based here.

I think we reached the year of the Linux phones. Atleast it is not the niche it was in 2020. I wonder how usable ubports is. If you got any experience with these phpnes on ubports, feel free to share.
