  You have a scale of 0 to 100%. Mine is like 200 to 4000%. There is a lot of literature and research on autism. We work differently and the way your post starts made me feel very attacked. And suddenly completely out of energy, although I love informing about it.

  I guess that’s because exactly that is our daily struggle. To all the damaging things we experience add on top that we’re accused of faking and also ‘that’s how it’s for everyone’.

  If you want to get into it but not start reading books I can recommend the book ‘invisible differences’ very much. There’s a pdf on the internet floating around.

  I know you wanted to ask innocently, however keep in mind asking about something and implicating something is not really a thing to people suffering massively exactly for that reason can be very hurtful.

  Don’t feel bad, everyone is just faking it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The right FUCKING time to get TWO ram sticks damaged⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Hm, sounds like it. Micron is certainly reputable, and the issues hint at men, although I’ve had similar that turned out not to be ram. Certainly very weird!

  On another note, I personally do absolutely not trust btrfs due to its creator and very long time shaky lossy raid issues. Since there are enough performant and proven long time reliable filesystems available I use others.

  Anyhow, getting to the point - I’d not entirely rule out something with btrfs as a separate issue too. I’ve just seen too many things that your ram issues could’ve been a few freak issues resulting in this.

  Although I fully agree in your deduction!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The right FUCKING time to get TWO ram sticks damaged⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Interesting. I actually read stuff like that related to Asrock boards and never used them. Sounds like I made the right choice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The right FUCKING time to get TWO ram sticks damaged⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If I may ask: how?

  (background: always owned multiple pc / built frequently / never had one stick of bad ram over decades. Was it just luck or better vendor or good handling)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  OK, I think we don’t understand each other because the spectrum is not represented at all in the US and you can only choose between two parties on the right. If you ignore that it’s not me needing research.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  OK name one party on the left that you could vote and would count?

  I am only aware of dem and rep.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow. First, no I’m not trolling. But we have a bit more open view in Europe. You’ve just got all corporate control with a lot of propaganda in the US. If you’re open to it, I invite you on research on countries with more than 2 (and even almost identical) parties and without backing of the rich.

  Yes I might be off about your spectrum, but the last deeper research I read was that over the decades your two right wing options narrowed down even more and by now they’re indistinguishable (for the common folk. Of course it would be better not to have trump but you have more political issues than that).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay now, this is surprising. Either your statement is way off or the definition of liberal is wildly different between US and EU.

  But liberal is definitely not right but center between left and right. But ad said, maybe that’s the European view.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Your whole political spectrum is from right to far right to us. There is no liberal or left at all.

  Never preorder.

  The fun thing is looking into history… especially the one of Freelancer. It would never have been released if it weren’t for Jörg Neumann who - in short - finished it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a good answer but I do not agree with the conclusion. Why not entertain that thought?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sometimes devs intentionally punish players for struggling with the game⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  All games need accessibility options.

  And those need to include ‘cheats’.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do you hate AI?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nowhere regarding the mp3 code (afaik, of course) there are masses of low wage workers required for data tagging for it to work. So no.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do you hate AI?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Absolutely. That is by all means not an exhaustive list. The shit pile is much higher than that and I regularly forget half of it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do you hate AI?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s built on ‘slave’ labor, illegal use of content and additionally using unbelievable amounts of power so the environmental concerns go right out of the window at a time where we should do everything to not do that.

  Also, AI, even if it’s the currently established term has absolutely nothing to do with neither intelligence nor sentience but is being sold as AGI (overpromised).

  This has caused huge masses of investment to gather which will pop at some point, causing all of us massive issues due to the missteps of a few.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨why is fossil fuel still used?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Lemmy users feel when they delete their Reddit account⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I just abandoned it years ago. ‘deleting’ the account won’t do much of anything than not displaying the account to user side anymore or move it to a internal only database. At least that’s what I would do if I could and companies regularly do much worse.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Epic boss Tim Sweeney thinks stores like Steam should stop labelling games as being made with AI: 'It makes no sense,' he says, because 'AI will be involved in nearly all future production⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I seem to have struck a nerve there, apologies.

  I don’t think it’s a shit example. It’s the latest I experienced. It’s a good game but hampered technically. Nobody needs to tell me, I’ve been gaming since before dos and grew up with it; I’ve also been working in it for a few decades.

  Look; you could just have a bigger or more gpus with more ram in a pc but if the end result does not significantly look better the question is for what all the effort is.

  And that’s what happened with UE5.

  Yes, maybe in a few years it might look different but it’s also been some time and hasn’t really been worth any of the performance impact.

  And - as said - I see quality impact in UE5 games which I personally can not comprehend in an supposed upgrade.

  However, feel free to disagree.

  Maybe it’s my background in datacenters: of course you can always meet demand with more raw power but it’s a losing fight and the intelligent progress is to optimize and use resources in a clever way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Epic boss Tim Sweeney thinks stores like Steam should stop labelling games as being made with AI: 'It makes no sense,' he says, because 'AI will be involved in nearly all future production⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I really am? (no sarcasm here, honest surprise)

  I thought it’s widespread knowledge that the “upgrade” to UE5 mainly brought a lot of performance loss compared to UE4 while having a signature blurry (or whatever) style which actually worsens the perceived quality.

  For example expedition 33, while it’s style is awesome, it’s performance is absolutely not. It should run flawless on ps5 and on superior pcs but still doesn’t and the fps range is not in line with the hardware capabilities.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Epic boss Tim Sweeney thinks stores like Steam should stop labelling games as being made with AI: 'It makes no sense,' he says, because 'AI will be involved in nearly all future production⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think I just understood why UE5 sucks that much…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it completely impossible to do age verification without compromising privacy?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Indeed, technologically it is absolutely possible in multiple ways.

  But the tempting possibilities of doing more than that are just too great.
