I'm somewhere between Robert Evans and Benn Jordan on politics and tech.

I like Calling In Sick Magazine for cycling stuff as they seem to be one of the only ones in that space with a "don't worry about what you ride, just ride" ethos.

He not my favorite musician but I love how Chris Thile talks about music and just seems to generally just love music.

As far as media/cultural discussions I've always really liked Mike Rugnetta.

    I could use a little advice on upgrading my machine without spending too much money (lemmy.world)
     

    So I've been using this machine for a little over 10 years now and making upgrades as nessesary. I don't care much for graphic quality so it's mostly been fine. However, my FPS on certain games has started to become pretty frustrating so I'm trying to come up with inexpensive options to upgrade.

    In particular I'm trying to play Nuclear Option online and am having a lot of trouble late in the match. I'm guessing this is due to the high amount of smoke effects but I'm not an expert in any way.

    I'm getting 10~20 FPS regardless of graphic settings. I've also checked on my GPU and it maxes out at around 50% utilization so I'm guessing the processor is my limitation

    The best CPU my motherboard can take is a i7-4790k (please correct me if I'm wrong) and I think I can get one for $100ish but I'm not sure if that would make enough of a difference. It also seems like DDR3 era board/CPU combos are a little more expensive but fairly affordable on ebay. However, I'm not really sure what would be a good value and worth the investment performance-wise.

    Any advice you could give is appreciated. Thanks

    I'm thinking of buying a Pinephone. Trying to get an idea off what I'm getting into... (lemmy.world)

    Hi

    As the title says I'm thinking of getting a PinePhone. I intend to make it my daily-driver. I've read it isn't ready for daily-driver use but I really only need it to do 3 things...

    • Calls
    • Texts
    • Run a Signal/Molly client

    I have an iphone for work and de-Googled Androids that I can turn on if I ever need but I want to avoid it as much as possible

    I was happily living with a Punkt MP02 when it worked but it's Signal client is a constant shit-show

    So what is it like? Are calls and texts reliable? Has anyone used Signal on it? I'm probably going to do the PostMarketOs/Plasma combo

    any experience you can share is helpful
