Actually it's worse than nothing. Youtube promotes comments based on engagement, so while only an upvote increases the tally, voting at all still makes it more visible.

I got here after they announced the API changes. Took about a week for the reddit posts to slow down at all but they're back in full force now that the changes have been implemented.

It's just people discussing something that's relevant to them. It'll go away eventually.

It's a bug. I've been getting it too, pretty sure it's related to how much stress the server is under. Give it a few minutes and refresh the page.

A month or two ago I got a bunch of downvotes for explaining why I didn't like a game. The people responding said it was because my comment was "too long." It was like six sentences. Why are these people on Reddit instead of Twitter?

Allegedly, but reddit also spent tons of money on stupid shit. My favorite example is their braindead stupid million dollar Superbowl ad, but they also doubled the number of employees to 1400 in 2021. And all they have to show for it is a slow, ugly website and a trashy, extra-monetized mobile app. Fuck em.

Peacock straight up disallows anyone running Linux from using it, regardless of what browser they're using. Guess I'll just pirate lol

Why are you shifting this argument so far? I never claimed the guy had tourette's, and I never said this guy shouldn't be insitutionalized. This is a completely irrelevant example.

The point I'm making is that the "fire" is a classic example of speech that isn't protected in the US, but with this ruling there's no way to prove intent. So what if I sat down and continued watching the movie afterwards? I just got over the delusion. And someone with tourette's would probably apologize, try to calm people down, or even avoid a theater altogether. I'm pretty sure that someone with a peanut allergy can't sue a peanut farm if they go visit and sample the produce; if you know there's an extra danger for you specifically in performing an activity then you are responsible.

Not to mention tourette's could never cause targeted, violent, electronic-message based harassment either. This is a focused, intentional action.

Completely insane ruling. Wild that Kagan went across the aisle for this.

the First Amendment requires proofs of mental state

So I guess it's basically impossible to convict anyone of anything involving speech? If I yell "fire" in a crowded theater, how can you prove I wasn't having a delusion that there was a fire? Maybe there was an explosion in the movie and I was so immersed I thought it was real!

Dude had previous convictions and spent years doing this harassing, it's not like this was an isolated mental break. Truly insane.

Doing some quick searching, I don't think SAM (AMD's name for resizeable BAR) is available on the 5000 series, just 6000 and up. You'd need an AMD CPU as well.

I've been running a 6700XT with an Intel CPU and it hasn't been bad, but not great either. I've had trouble with the most recent graphics drivers; I tried to update in May and had to deal with a bunch of blackscreens before finally reverting to November's drivers. Luckily AMD has old drivers available directly on their website.

Messing with the GPU's performance settings within Adrenaline (AMD's version of geforce experience) is also super buggy, only working for a few hours at best before crashing and reverting. I'm talking anything physical, from overclocking to just increasing ambient fan speeds. Their bug reporter is also terrible! Changing render settings for specific games has worked fine, as well as deactivating the ingame overlay, but while I think you should play with it just to see how it works for you, I can only recommend using Adrenaline as a temperature monitor.

At the end of the day though it's not much buggier than my ancient dual 680 setup was lol, and it's like half the price of Nvidia stuff so I'd say you probably won't regret the purchase

It seems like a deliberate attempt to cause trouble and a federation debate to me. All that nonsense belongs on exploding-heads where it can be easily ignored
