I'll have to check this out. By any chance can you give it a Playlist and have it monitor it for changes and auto-download any new entries?

Maybe they make them better here in Denmark. Plus we have "Pant" where you pay more for the bottles but get money back when you return them so it's a "belt and braces" approach I guess!

Perhaps becuase you've only opened it half way, you need to lift it back over again and clip in under the rim.

Out of touch old timer planning a new build (feddit.dk)

Hello all, looking for a sanity check and any advice from you good folks. I've always built my own PCs, however I haven't done a build for myself in some time. For a bit of perspective my current system is an i5-3750... so yup.

Anyways, I'm thinking of hopping up to an AM5 system hoping that it will be valid for a few years (though maybe not the 10+ I've had out of this system!) while also getting in as relatively cheaply as possible, whilst still being in a fairly solid place. So my thought are as follows:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X (Cooling via a Pure Rock 2)
MoBo: ASUS TUF Gaming B650-PLUS WiFi
RAM: Kingston FURY Beast DDR5 6000Mhz 32GB
GFX: MSI RTX 3060 Ventus 2X (12GB)
NVMe: WD Black SN770 2TB
PSU: Corsair RM850e
Case: NZXT H7 Flow Midi Tower (Will be a shame to let go of my old NZXT Phantom but too many of the fans are weird sizes so awkward to replace, and wasn't designed with modern AIOs in mind, should I go that route in the future.)

A couple of extra bits of information:

It's mainly a system I will use for gaming, though these days there's not so many fast pace shooters as there are slow paced city builders and the like, so ultimate frame rates are not a super top priority for me. Edit: Gaming on a 1440P LG Ultragear

I went RTX 3060 as it seemed to be the cheapest way to get a relatively modern card (Currently using a GTX 1660 Ti) with 12GB of VRAM, as I've started playing around a lot with AI Image Generation which does like to eat up VRAM.

PSU is probably way more than this system will need, but figured it was best to leave headroom for future CPU/GPU upgrades, and the price difference for lower wattages seems negligible. (Contemplated a 1000W, but there the price jump seems to lie)

So any advice, or just "yup looks good" feedback would be welcomed before I jump back in to building.

Oh also this build is currently around the 10,000 DKK range and hoping to stick around that area. ($1,400 / £1,150 / €1,350)

Maybe clean-up after the Enchantment Under the Sea dance?

Just to confirm. It's okay to have two monitors and one be HDR and the other not, correct? (Windows 11) by countstex in c/pcmasterrace@lemmy.world

[-] countstex@feddit.dk 4 points 1 year ago

Working for me in Windows 10 using a GTX 1660Ti om an aging Intel i5-3570 so anything from the last 10 years should be fine. My HDR monitor is running over Display Port rather than HDMI I should mention however.

I had the same issue with NVMe, but you can get 4x PCI-E cards to install them on. Wouldn't work as a boot drive but it's great for a games installation space. Just check installing another card doesn't drop your GFX from the 16x. My old ASUS Gene V had two 16x style slots and an extra 4x so I could manage to add one card without dropping the GFX to 8x.

My XBOX has the internal 1TB then 4TB of USB3 storage for 360/XBOX One games (or Series games I'm not currently playing). Main PC is 500GB SSD Raid 0 System drive, 1TB NVMe data drive and a 6TB HDD Storage Space. Then my NAS has 20TB (RAID 5) of space for everything else. (Including a full set of install files of any games I bought via GoG since you can keep their DRM free install files just in case GoG suddenly disappear)

where do yall go for your gaming coverage/pods? by countstex in c/games@sh.itjust.works

[-] countstex@feddit.dk 2 points 1 year ago

Podcast wise: Rebel FM, though after all these years it's more just to catch up with them than the actual talking points, but always enjoyable.

For deep dives into specific games Cane & Rinse (full disclosure I have met and consider friends some of the guys involved).

For Indie Games, The Sausage Factory by Chris O'Regan, which these days is hosted by Cane And Rinse is a great way to hear directly from the game devs themselves.

You may feel a little prick.

Throwback Tuesday - Show us your oldest Android screenshots! by countstex in c/android@lemdro.id

[-] countstex@feddit.dk 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

From 2011, I thnk this was on the original Samsung Galaxy (Can't find it only to confirm), the one with the "sticky out chin". This was my first true smartphone after having used a Blackberry Bold I think, before which I had a Blackberry Pearl, and before that Dell Axim alongside maybe a Nokia 6820? How far we've come!

Edit: I think this might actually have been from my HTC Hero... probably shortly before I move on to an HTC Desire or maybe even the Desire itself.

Edit 2: It must have been the Desire, resolution of 480x800 on the screenshot.

I've been paying the sub so I can pick up and play on my phone, tablet or PC whichever I happen to be using when I want to listen, but I'll be dropping it if that is indeed the new price!
