      At the office: Windows 11 issues. At my apartment: Linux issues? I'll take Linux issues because they're super easy to fix. Windows 11 is a lost cause.

      Currently maintaining the SMP6 Public Utilities. One of the villagers was on 2 hearts, I used a splash potion on it to get it back to full health.

      LMDE 7 drops 32-bit support. This is the end of an era, but totally expected. We need to move on from 32-bit support.

      My cable management has gotten marginally better. Just enough that my CRT monitor doesn't have any distortions on it lmao

      The EU is leaving Windows for Linux. I'm so happy for you guys! I hope you enjoy machines that just work and not having to deal if spying, licensing fees, and worrying about awful Microsoft Support! So happy for you all!!! ❤️❤️❤️

      Out of curiosity, I turned on anti-aliasing when playing Minecraft on my CRT monitor, and it looks too smooth: very unnatural. I prefer it with anti-aliasing off. The jagged edges do not look anywhere as bad as they do on my LCD panel.

      I've been doing some ancient city spelunking. New items I see, disc fragments, trims, and echo shards. No idea what they are or how valuable they are, but I've been collecting them as I go along.

      I gave my friend my RTX 3080. I no longer need it anymore, and it'll be a major upgrade for him from his 1660.

        That’s cool! The 3080 was built to run in a 4th gen lane, but it shouldn’t noticeably hurt anything assuming they’re running it in a 3rd gen lane. Unless they expect every ounce of speed of course, it will be a great upgrade. It may also be worth mentioning to check that the power supply is still sufficient for the setup after the upgrade.

        Instabilities caused by shallow power can also be a contributing factor for overheating, slowdowns, crashes, unexpected shutdowns, and worst of all - hardware damage.

      If anyone sees caves that have an obscene amount of torches, sorry, that was me. Minecraft caves are pitch-black on my CRT, even with brightness set to 100%, unlike an LCD panel. Truly the hardest difficulty one could even fathom for Minecraft. Spooky.

        I tend to double down in the deepslate layer but only do as much as I need to in the stone layer. I can see the stone layer fine as long as there's any light, but deepslate is a much darker rock, straining my eyes.

      Hey Joy, we haven't seen you on the EMC Discord for a while. Just wanted to check if you're ok. We all care about you.

        Thanks DreamyFeather, just took time away to focus on my personal life and other matters. I appreciate your kind words. I might pop back on the EMC Discord, just for people to keep in touch if they wish!

      RTX 5090 issues, 12-pin cables reaching over 100°C? Yeah Nvidia, that's what we call a major issue, due to negligence. Please fix this before something more serious happens.

        My solution? Go integrated. (Or replace it because the fans are NOT doing their job)

      Sparkle Intel ARC A750 8GB model is more expensive than the Intel ARC A770 16GB model on Amazon? What? Shouldn't it be the other way around...?
