ShadowRam, to kbin

@kbin kbin is constantly returning 50x and 404 errors to me for the last few weeks. It's literally unusable, even for browsing. What's going on? Is it just me? should I move on to a different instance?

ShadowRam,

@kbin

Thanks for the thread info,

Norgur,

@ShadowRam Same goes for Lemmy. 0.19 seems to have produced some issues with outgoing federation, While most instances seem to be in the process of fixing this, the outgoing federation queues are days behind the curve in some cases.

I want a new PC in the foreseeable future, so here I am asking for advice

Here's some basic info about my current build
-Processor: i7-7700
-RAM: 32 GB DDR4 (originally they were 16GB, but one module died and I had to buy new ram modules)
-Graphic Card: RTX 3060 (originally it was the GTX 1060 3GB but it died too)
-Motherboard: Asus Z270H
-Case: Zalman Z11 plus. I hate it, it's ugly, I did not chose it (they didn't had in stock the one I bought and gave me that one instead) and cleaning it is a pain in the ass

I'm planning in changing teams, leaving Nvidia, Intel and Windows behind for AMD and Linux

I can't afford a high end PC, but it will be a gaming PC, so let's stay in the middle (more or less in line of what my current build was 6-7 years ago)

The thing is Idk much about AMD (I've been inside the Nvidia bubble for too long), are they going to launch new hardware (procesors and graphic cards) soon? should I wait? will the wait be worth? (yeah, sorry. those are the eternal questions, I know never is the right moment to upgrade)

I DON'T have any interest in most AAA graphic intensive games (like GTA VI) there are some exceptions, (like the next Monster Hunter) but I rarelly play AAA games (In general I'm more into a A or AA games) so here it is possible to cut some corners a little

Ok, those questions were a little bit generic and I can investigate on my own, you can ignore them, but I have some questions a little bit more specific

I have a PCIe 3.0 NVME M.2 SSD and a Samsumg EVO 870 EVO (Sata 2.5'') I'll like to reuse in the new build. would it be possible? are new motherboads (with PCIe 5 or 6) backwards compatible? (asking about the M.2 SSD that uses PCIe 3.0 mainly, the other one is a normal Sata SSD) I plan to buy a newer (and faster) M.2 SSD too, but the extra storage is always welcome even if it's slower

About the case I just want a simple case, easy to clean and as silent as possible (so the bigger the fans the better) with plenty of room inside so it's easy to work with it when I need to do some maintenance like cleaning or replacing something, I don't need RGB nor a glass window nor all the fancy stuff so what do you recommend?

Another dilemma I have is the screen, it's so old it it only has a DVI port!! (SyncMaster BX2335) but still works, is full HD and its size is 23'' I don't have room for a much bigger screen so idk if 1440p or 4k screens are worth, tbh.

nvidia drivers still do not support wayland.

You can definitely run Wayland with an Nvidia GPU. I have on a 3060 Ti, on Debian, before I switched to an AMD card. And I also ran xorg with it.

IIRC Sway, a Wayland compositor that I use, didn’t earlier in the year, back when I tried it, but it’s not the only compositor out there, and I’m guessing – perhaps incorrectly – that if you’re doing the jump from Windows to Linux, that you aren’t concurrently switching to a tiling desktop environment anyway.

Also my current GPU does not have DVI neither (I have a HDMI to DVI cable, so that’s not really a problem) it’s more about missing modern features (like freesync) and the whole pc being “limited” (not in the literal sense, I know monitors don’t cause bottlenecks) by the old screen

Fair enough. Was just saying that if you do want to keep it, you should be able to do so.

@tal

Yeah, you can use wayland on nvidia (like I said wayland give me less headaches than xorg), but the drivers do not support it officially

I posted my issues in the official forums of a couple of linux distros, followed the instructions they gave me and the conclussion was that my speciffic hardware configurarion does not get along with linux for whatever reason

J'ai terminé Pocket Bomberman sur GBC, et c'était franchement sympa ! Bomberman dans un plateformer, c'est plutôt surprenant :p. Pas convaincu par le concept au départ, j'ai rapidement changé d'avis après quelques niveaux.

Pour les curieux, je vous recommande la video de RumblePad : ici
