Thank you! That makes a lot of sense.
As far as I understand normal cooking will create additional seasoning layers, and a cast iron skillet will get better with time. But if I only rise the temperature high enough to cook food (and not high enough where I see smoke), how does polymerization actually happen? I thought that if there was no smoke, then polymerization was not happening, but is that the case?

On one hand it is a very comfortable, beautiful keyboard, and wireless has worked flawlessly. On the other hand, 2 blue leds have failed, so currently dealing with warranty.

Is there really a black edition? Isn't that one the g915 tkl?

If people get enough from a free demo maybe it's time to make shorter cheaper games, and start churning out 2 hour playtrough 15usd games, but with high quality graphics/acting/voices/etc. Or just abolish capitalism and make fun games no matter if they sell or not 😂

If demos hurt sales, that means that game devs depend on gamers buying games they don't actually end up liking right? I understand making games has become pricier and pricier, but if the whole business model is dependent on "We want to trick people into getting stuff they don't want", then we have a problem.

Different instances have different ideologies. You can get a user on "everything-conservative" which blocks half if the federation, or you can get into a free for all instance which allows all. Big generic instances like lemmy.world do have a big problem on their hands, they have to make the bubble the common denominator of all users, which is hard to know.

I think the beauty of federation is that each instance can have it's own moral code, I figure we will see everything-not-illegal-lemmy.com at some point, without any conmunity except meta ones, with admins that just do not de-federate from anything else.
You can be part of any instance that aligns with your values. And each community can decide which instance to live in. If some community wants to live in an instance which allows everything so anyone can comment, then maybe they move or start their own.
And I don't think only horrible people would want this. I figure some community like suicide watch might want to allow everyone to comment no matter where they are from. Making de-federation the only option would suck, but it's not. There can be different bubbles, and bubbles which contain them.
Buenas, creo que todos aca querrian que esta comunidad no se vuelva como las de reddits, en donde se vuelve un circle-jerk de un solo lado de la grieta, y las opiniones del otro lado no sirven. Siento que estaria bueno que se pueda hablar de politica civilizadamente, y que opiniones de derecha e izquierda tengan lugar, sin que sean acribilladas a downvotes. Queria tantear un poco un par de cosas: 1. Les parece bien que se hable de politica en general? 2. Que opinan sobre linkear a sitios de noticias muy de derecha o izquierda? Porque ya me veo venir que si comparto algo de laizquierdadiario.com, capaz hay gente que no le cabe, y lo mismo si hay un articulo de clarin/infobae super tendencioso. 3. Como hacemos para que no sea todo downvoteado a la verga cuando alguien opina distinto? 4. Podemos ponernos de acuerdo en que las discusiones sean civiles mas alla de opinion? Podriamos hacer un rejunte de ejemplo de cosas que son provocativas al pedo y que no valen. 5. Contenemos la politica a ciertos posts especificos de eso? Cuantos por semana? Disclaimer: Me consideron de izquierda, pero tambien me gustaria que se mantenga el respeto/etc con gente de derecha. Quiero que no hinchen las bolas con chistes de polenta, pero que tampoco haya criticas agresivas/maleducadas a la derecha.
Me acabo de comprar una RTX 3090 usada. Supuestamente fue usada unos meses para mineria y con el crash la venden. Vamos a ver como sale. La ultima vez que hice esto con una RX580 salio joya. Les recomiendo que se fijen que encuentran y no compren GPUs nuevas porque salen un huevo y medio. Si les da ansiedad comprar cosas sin saber si andan, compren en mercadolibre. Es un poco mas caro por las comisiones y porque tienen que facturartelo, pero tenes 30 dias para devolver la GPU si no anda, o si simplemente no te gusto como funcionaba. Si a los 31 dias se te funde, bueno, estas salado, no hay mucho mas que hacer.

Search by community is not working. If you go to search page, and select a community and click search, it will search in all communities anyway.

Could we also use AI in our benefit? We could try coding an AI mod helper, that tries to detect and flag which posts are irrelevant/agressive/etc. It can take the data of all modlog instances, and start learning what probably needs to be banned, and then you can have a human confirming the data every time. We could even have a system like steam's anticheat where a few users have to validate reports as a user.

Spirited away, just because I saw it as a child and it got me hooked on Miyasaki for life. It remains one of the most fun ones for me. It has the right balance between reality and fantasy, between fun and action/danger.
It also has that feeling of looking at a strange world as an outsider that I love, which is the reason I liked the first harry potter film/book for example. The wonder of a new, strange world with new rules that we do not comprehend.

Even if they do, they would not be able to force instance owners to update to the closed version. And people would take over the last available open source version and fork it. Also, a closed and open source version could co-exist, since the api is open.

Yeah things have improved a lot! And emulators like yuzu being open source really helps.

Yeah! If there's too much attention from US companies the instances related to piracy can just move. I'm wondering what's the law for US residents who host their website in another country, do they still have to respect US laws?

Oh damn, sorry, yeah, makes sense to link locally. Just changed it.

It's a "sarcasm" symbol, but it basically boils down to "just joking around". Spanish speakers also use (?) For the same purpose
I tried playing this game on my m1 max and it was running pretty good, except for terrible frame drops whenever the temperature dropped. It went from 45fps to 10fps, for all of the time that the animation for temperature drop was playing. Found the only setting that caused this was global illumination. It is probably a game bug that can be fixed, but I don't think the devs will do it since they are focused on frostpunk 2.

I think I was running at native resolution, which is much less than what you're running at.
Edit: Ok, I actually tried running it again, on 1080p, and it's faster than I remember, maybe there was some optimization along the way or something happened. I still get really bad frame drops when the temperature drops. It runs at 45fps until it drops to 10fps for like 10/15 seconds while the temperature drops.
I actually checked cpu and gpu usage, and the cpu is not max at all, but the gpu is at 100% all the time, that might mean that a faster cpu might indeed be useful. Maybe at around 45fps it starts to become cpu bound?
Edit 2: on native resolution it runs at 30fps, and drops to 4fps when temperature drops.
Edit 3: Running at 960x600 resolution keeps it running at 50fps, even when the temperature drops. GPU usage is still at maximum.
Edit 4: Found the culprit. Global illumination is the setting that made the fps drop so hard when temperature drops. Can you check if it happens for you as well on m2 ultra?

I'd love for apple to keep improving rosetta 2 somehow, games which run on metal+x86 translation are still very slow. But I think it contradicts their objectives, they want native/real support, and are only providing this tools to help the transition, not to replace it.

That's the one I have! And it only runs to around 30fps, with marked slow downs when the temperature drops, it's barely playable. I'm not going to upgrade to an m2 max macbook, but I was just hoping a possible m3 max might be good enough for the type of games I'm interested and that I would not need a gaming pc, so I wanted to see the improvement from m1 to m2.
I'm about to try this method to clean and re-season my cast iron wok, I will report back once it's done if you're interested.
I'm from Argentina and I can not buy stuff like "crisco", I need specific oils that I can buy in any brand, like sunflower seed oil, soybean oil, etc. This is how it looks currently: 
Hi! I'm waiting for ryujinx or yuzu to be more stable/complete on mac before dipping into botw, and I've noticed botw [only runs if using JIT on mac](https://github.com/Ryujinx/Ryujinx/issues/5219). Do you know if there's any performance comparison of JIT vs Hypervisor? I'm also curious because if hypervisor is really that much faster then the m1 chip would perform much better for switch emulation than any gaming pc (since all x86 pcs have to use JIT).
As far as I understand if any fediverse instance decided to start having magnet links and stuff like that, eventually it would be taken down by DCMA notices and the like. But what could be done so a community like that could thrive? Some questions: 1. Would other instances that federate with it get in trouble? They can always feign ignorance. 2. Could an intance which holds magnet links and trackers be backed up every day, so that as soon as one instance is taken down another one takes it's place immediately? 3. Could an instance be owned annonymously? Can you register a domain and keep a server running somewhere without repercussions? 4. Could a lemmy instance live in an onion domain, and still interact with the rest of the fediverse? Would that improve anything regarding the instance being taken down? 5. What about running instances in countries that do not enforce piracy laws? Could someone in some random country that does not care maintain an instance, which all of the fediverse can access/comment/contribute?
I'm currently using a https://www.hardkernel.com/shop/odroid-hc2-home-cloud-two/, which has this cpu: Samsung Exynos5422 Cortex-A15 2Ghz and Cortex-A7 Octa core CPUs. It is obviously not enough for real time transcoding, which is ok because I do not want it. But getting subtitles out of files and other remuxing tasks are slow as well, I'd like some more power without building a full custom hptc. Is an intel NUC worth it? Or is there any other significantly faster raspby-clone?
I searched for ages for a replacement of something like torrentz, and the rarbg drop made me start the search again. I ended up trying the included search in qbittorrent, and I'm very happy with the results, it scans many public trackers, and I have always found what I wanted. To be clear, qbittorrent is a desktop app for linux/windows/mac, that has a panel where you can search for torrents: https://www.qbittorrent.org/
There's also official support from cable matters since a few weeks ago (seems they got the idea from the thread, which is much older): https://www.cablematters.com/Blog/HDMI/how-to-get-4k120hz-with-mac
Does anyone have benchmarks on how much better m2 is at gaming? Specifically I'd like to see benchmarks for native games, and rosetta games like frostpunk, which seem to be cpu bound quite heavily. I have found lots of individual benchmarks, but no direct comparison.
