Hond@piefed.socialto pics@lemmy.world•Someone asked for one more phone astro pic so here it isEnglish7·4 days agoNot OP but i often just use the timer in these cases. I also have a cheap bluetooth remote that was included with a selfie stick ten years ago(got it for the 1/4" thread to put my phones on a tripod).
But atleast on android you can also use most bluetooth game controllers as a remote to release the shutter. I snapped quite a few pics with my xbox and 8bitdo(small and pocketable) controllers over the years.Edit: Which reminds me that my old DSLR had a IR receiver for remotes. So i often just borrowed my parents tv remote in the night because one random button had the same ir signature as the official camera remote of the manufacturer. Good times
Hond@piefed.socialto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•RDNA2 FSR4 Performance vs FSR3 QualityEnglish6·4 days agoNeat!
I didnt know RDNA2 would work with FSR4 too.
Hond@piefed.socialto Virtual Reality@lemmy.world•Valve Launches Steam Link On Pico Headsets & Vive Focus VisionEnglish1·5 days agoSadly doesnt seem to work right now with my Pico 4 in combination with CachyOS. Steamlink just doesnt want to establish a connection to my PC. I can stream a super laggy virtual pancake stream. But VR mode wont even connect at all.
WiVRn and ALVR work flawlessly though. So i’m not too sad about it.
not wearing pants is a sign of success tbh
Removed by mod
Why would you intentially seek up a prostitute in a game though?

Hond@piefed.socialto memes@lemmy.world•I've been looking for this dude all of my life!English5·10 days agoWhat? ‘IF?’ ?? JUST TELL ME YOU STUFFED FUCK!!!
Fair, but your real life constelation is pretty different to a videogame.
Eh, i got over it pretty fast. But in the end i was really happy about that experience since in gave me introspection about myself. More than i would ever expect from a fucking shooty video game with light rpg elements.
NGL, happened to me exactly like that. It was a bit ‘unpleasent’ as in the unknown can be pretty scary. Like i’m fairly open and especially dont give a fuck what anybody else does. But the first person depiction of same sex… sex was pretty intimate in that game. Yeah, i like to see myself as _progressive _ and open but i’m still an average cis white male gamer. I’m mature enough to admit that it challengend me. I’ve never seen something like that. It was my first time. Dont get me wrong i still dont have anything against LGBTQ+. In the end i handled it as dumb as it sounds. But tbh i never saw somebody talk about that? Like i still want to be an ally but experiencing _gay _ stuff kinda first hand still was weird.
Nothing but to agree. But we are way past the point of facts. This fallacy implies just projection of your own competency onto morons who just dont care. Your enemy doesnt care.

Hond@piefed.socialOPto Music@beehaw.org•Calyx - Follow The Leader [Genre: DNB] of Midnight Club 3 fameEnglish2·10 days agoI’m slightly drunk and i have the need to express myself via racing game soundtracks. If you want i’ll take you on a ride through my ongoing playlist and suggestions regarding that genre.
With that said we start with my(!) OG MSX FM in GTA III which also includes Tracks from Calyx:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EI3tV6EhUjU
But with that we get introduced to Moving Shadow who has bangers in the late 90’s and early 00’s like:
99.1 CD1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EI3tV6EhUjU
99.1 CD2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NV7kBJPxds
or 01.1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwzYXZhuPJs which basically is MSX FM without MC(it gets pretty hardcore with playtime)
Lots more to check out if you like the style. But lets move on:
NFS Undercover was the first badly received Need for Speed game but i’d consider the Soundtrack one of the best:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wj3QZq_NECc&list=PLfEZ2UIciT73tCl9KzvmFPG89vQ2DXmY8 As a warning its not DNB. But it has some really nice EDM between the rock bangers and it just flows. I’m not big on driving cars in RL. But it has that perfect Jamiroquai music video quality to it? Anyway back to DNB and Moving Shadow: With 99.1 CD2 we got introduced to E-Z Rollers. How about some more?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXGmWhkt590&list=OLAK5uy_lQP0zweupIdyQCjpfHiJrhAmT9tJeAypY&index=1
Less Breakbeats but more BoomBoom? Have you heard of the upcoming Genre of Rally House? Which is based on the tracks you’d find on late 90’s PSX rally games like Colin Mcrae Rally?
https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Rally+house
With that said i’d like to introduce my favourite PSX youtuber who mixes some rad PSX based mixtapes which are naturally really DNB heavy:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9sveE999ic8&list=PL5wBEnvqci20OJ-ll-exRnLUwc7jUw0gtI think thats too big of dump already. Maybe i come back. I hope somebody in this whole wide world draws some insperation from it. IDK tbh.
Have a great one. The only thing i know i’m pleased with myself because i shared my passion in some capacity.
Greetings
Edit: Oh yeah: Huge fan of the NFS 2 - NFS 5 (Porsche Unleashed) Soundtracks. Ironically and unironically total oldschool bangers.
Hond@piefed.socialto Android@lemdro.id•Murena's HIROH Phone is a premium smartphone that runs de-Googled Android & has privacy kill switchesEnglish8·11 days agoTheres a difference between ‘premium’ and ‘flagship’. The price alone is enough to call it premium (with some asterisks). But its just not flagship hardware. The SOC is more than enough for my needs. But performancewise its somewhere near a 3,5 year old flagship Snapdragon and is itself 2 years old. Also if you give a fuck about these specs because of gaming/emulation or misusing(loaded statement i know)it as a desktop substitute Mediatek SOCs still lag behind in support/compatibility to Qualcomm.
But then there are some unpremium telltales like that third backside macro camera with undisclosed megapixels. That instantly tells me that it probably sports a 2mp unuseable tiny sensor. Its only there to trick the consumer in believing that its more premium then it is. Its not an useful tele like on a Iphone Pro but the design suggest it.
They also dont specify what kind of USB connection they provide. So its most likely USB 2.0 with no displayout. Other things on their official spec sheet:
_Primary camera aperture | 2 Megapixel _ its just typo tbf but still, lmao.
Headphones jack | TYPE-C DAC digital headphone Just ‘no’ would be more honest but i just wouldnt mention it at all and everybody who cares gets it.I’m all in with MudMans assertion that they should just own it instead of tiptoeing around the truth. As he said its a solid device with enough unique selling points. But sadly it feels(!) like they try to deceive me here and there with their messaging. Which is soooo unnecessary.
Edit: It kinda suggests to me(!) that it probably is a badge engineered phone of a chinese company which provides semi customizeable barebone devices. Just a guess by me(!). But that would be unpremium as fuck. And dont get at me how stupid that whole pReMiuM talk is. I’m fully aware of that. But thats the bullshit you need to deal with if you start using these terms. I didnt start it.
Hond@piefed.socialto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Flashing XT BIOS on AMD Radeon RX 9070 Yields up to 25% Performance BoostEnglish22·11 days agoIn real-world gaming, the card only managed to gain roughly 8-12% uplift over the stock SKU, showing the decoupling from the synthetic tests. It is very likely that the longer-term thermal stress from the prolonged gaming sessions is causing this lower performance increase, sustaining lower clocks compared to the relatively short-term load from synthetic benchmarks. The entire cause of this FPS increase is the enhanced power limit, which increases the non-XT 220 W board power to as much as 300 W, representing a roughly 36% power increase on its own. No additional cores/ROPs/TMUs are unlocked by flashing the XT BIOS. In fact, the entire process is very inefficient when comparing the power/performance of the stock non-XT SKU. However, if you are looking to extract the maximum performance from your GPU, this may be a viable option, provided you consider all the risks associated with running your GPU at its non-default settings. Sustained higher power settings can result in GPU degradation over time, and BIOS flashing is always a risky endeavor.
But YT definetly fucks something up when stable volume is enabled. My non audiophile ass can notice it instantly even with podcasts. It sounds significantly worse.
