I was daily driving an Egpu on my framework laptop with an 11th gen Intel cpu/main board for a few years up until early last year. It did its job, I could play games & run graphically intensive applications, but performance was really bad for the card I was using, which was a radion 6600 (8gb). The problem was the laptop was stuck at only 4 lanes of pcie at gen 1 speeds , resulting in high latency, frequently buggy audio, & poor overall performance for the hardware.

If you have better hardware that fully supports USB 4 & thunderbolt 3+, & is able to link to the GPU at gen 3+ speeds you should have a better experience than I did. If you’d like, I can DM you various resources I’ve found while I was troubleshooting this setup a few years ago.

Use unlock origin to zap it a few times, works like a charm.

The mod has actually been a thing for a while, they only released on steam recently, & before that there were some legal troubles or something…

Point being 1,000 hours on the mod is believable if they played before the steam release & before the legal troubles.

Na, they don’t fall for the old microwave trick anymore, gotta change the date & time in settings

I actually did exactly this last night, & it was as painless as could be. I replaced my old amd RX 6600 with a fresh nvidia 5060 I got for Christmas.

The distro I am using is Bazzite, & because of the immutable nature of the distro, all I had to do was rebase to bazzite-nvidia-open & swap the gpu’s. The process was as follows:

• rebase bazzite using only one command
• shutdown & open case
• swap graphics cards, dust the machine & close case
• reboot machine
• enjoy games my rig struggled with previously for 20 minutes
• watch YouTube for the rest of the night

All there was to it. The download page on their website was all I needed to tell me how to do it.

Some trans feminine people don’t care for being called dude or variations of the same. Trans people in general tend to have complicated feelings about how others refer to them. Others don’t care one way or the other. If you’re not sure, just ask. If you slip up then correct yourself & move on. Not much to it. This advice should also apply to pronoun stuff.

Some transphobes like to act like there’s a whole complicated song & dance you gotta do so the scary trans people won’t be triggered if you talk to them or whatever. Its really not like that, all ya gotta do is ask & be respectful.

Nope, spelling mistake, already edited

Only way it could be ‘stolen valor’ is if you’re a trans/queerphobe, & that’d just be called ‘lying’ & ‘a dick move’. Just do what feels right.

I do have a few alternatives though:

If you want to be clear you’re an ally, there are ally variants, though I wouldn’t recommend going that route unless you have a queer friend/loved one who’s happy to call you an ally before doing so. Some cis people claim to be ally’s & then continue to buy jk Rowling trash or be weird about pronouns & ‘dude’. Don’t want to muddy the waters.

Otherwise, you could just get something like the progress pride flag if you don’t feel like being specific.

Edit: misspelled ‘variants’

Ya, whole show was kind of a let down, TankRat, from the Beginning no less, was the only one that really cought my eye. Oh well, at least Expedition 33 got its due & EVERYTHING ELSE SOMEHOW.

I really should play it already, if even the notoriously AAA subordinate Jeffy K. had to acknowledge those French people’s game so hard.

Just a shame my rig isn’t up to the task. :(

beep beep “WARNING: User DEAD, Imminent”

Fucking REAL.

Like every other year until it or the next thing

u n me both…

There are actually a few versions of this song by different YouTube’s. This one’s my favorite, but I’m biased (JoCat is great)

Besides, I believe there have been drug trials for hormonal birth control for men, but they never got approved.

Take with this a mountain of salt though, I need to check my sources. I’ll update later if I can find them again.

Hold on, sperm banks ( I assume sperm anyway, this is an mtf community after all) allow people to just… store their sperm? For reasons? I got the idea somewhere that places like this as a rule don’t just let any Jack off jo into the receptacles because then any ‘white replacement theory’ nutjob could freeze their seed & be done with it.

Is this an actual option for transfems? What country(s) is this an option in? Any catch 22’s or gotcha’s? Do you have any links I could check for more info OP?

Sorry, don’t mean to bombard you with questions on your celebration post, congrats btw, still, I somehow got it in my head this wasn’t really an option, is it?

100% this, there is matrix, but that was a pain when I used it (this was a few years ago, granted). Signal just works.

Sometimes, I dream about cheese :3 🧀🧀🧀

Its a stereotype: BMW drivers supposedly tend to not use their turn signals in instances when they should, which can make them less predictable on the road which can be very dangerous.

Well said.

Pun Jail for you, pun jail for 1,000 years.
