  • I think in this case, it's the proper nouns that should be used. If we learned it as Zhōnghuá Rénmín Gònghèguò (or at least whichever part of that translates to "China"), it wouldn't be too bad. There's not much point in also using the Cantonese versions of "country", "language", etc., since most languages have their own analogue for these concepts

  • A demonym is a noun that specifically refers to a person from a particular location; you can't use it as an adjective.

    So in your second list, a school can't be a Muscovite, since it isn't a person. You could have met a Muscovite at the school in Moscow.

    You would just say that you dated a Londoner. You would then use an adjective to describe the Londoner further (a female Londoner) or make the sentence longer and a bit clunkier IMO (a Londoner who was a woman)

  • The Exynos, M series, and Qualcomm chips are all ARM architecture, as opposed to the AMD and Intel CPUs, which are x86.

    Because of this, the majority of software wouldn't natively work on them. Apple has obviously developed versions of many programs that function on their laptops, and could extend the same treatment to the hypothetical desktop product. The other chip companies do not have this benefit, and would have to develop supported software from the ground up

  • You should remove the nvidia drivers. AFAIK leaving them on won't affect the AMD GPU, but no sense in keeping them if you aren't using them.

    AMD's open source drivers work perfectly out of the box and come with the mesa package which comes packaged with most Linux distros, so it's pretty much plug and play.

    Just some FYI notes : Arch purists might get upset if you ask for help with Arch-derived distros (like Endeavour) on their forums. Also, RTFM. Check if https://wiki.archlinux.org/ has clear answers before asking online. Learning for yourself is always better than being spoonfed

  • Normally no, since one gonosome comes from each parent: The mother (XX) and the father (XY).

    If somehow a series of unfortunate meioses occurred to create a zygote that had two Y chromosomes and no X chromosome, the foetus would absolutely not be viable, since the X chromosome contains many essential genes, while the Y chromosome is a truncated version that has less than half the information

  • ... the government's Anti-Corruption Office would investigate and determine whether anyone had acted improperly, including the president himself.

    Boy, I'm glad we have government-funded experts to investigate .... Corruption in the government

  • DEI

  • I still browse the reddit front page occasionally (I know, ban me) and most posts there from r/conservative have them celebrating because Trump is apparently enacting a plethora of beneficial policies.

    I'm not from the USA, so I don't know how accurate or significant those claims are, but it seems the conservative agenda is advancing as planned

    Install issue on OnePlus 11

    I was following the installation guide and things were going smoothly until I started flashing the recovery.img

    For some reason the phone started power cycling, which interrupted the flash. Unplugging and re-plugging it in seemed to resolve it, and it got back to bootloader mode. I flashed the recovery image onto it and tried entering recovery mode, but now it only goes to the bootloader, irrespective of the option I choose.

    Is the phone screwed, or can I salvage this?

    ED. Fastboot detects the phone when it's plugged in but adb does not

    Upscaling really is black magic

    I have an RTX 3060 that I bought about two years ago. Until recently I only had a 1080p 75Hz monitor, so I could play pretty much anything on max settings.

    Then I decided to treat myself to a 1440p 180Hz monitor, which has been amazing. Obviously this is a lot more GPU intensive, so I have had to turn down some settings. Then I decided to try out FSR. I'm on Linux and gaming mostly through Proton, so it was as easy as adding a launch command.

    Holy crap. Elden ring (admittedly not a very intensive game) went from a choppy 50 fps on high settings and medium ray tracing, to a smooth 60 fps on maxed out settings and high ray tracing with FSR Quality. And I can't even tell the difference from the upscaling! I'm super impressed and can't wait to try out FSR 2 and DLSS now!

    How it feels to be a high-level necromancer in Grim Dawn

    PS. Play Grim Dawn! Amazing ARPG with really good classes and customisations.

    If you'd prefer something older and simpler, the same devs made Titan Quest.

    New-ish devices compatible with custom ROMs

    I am currently using an S9 with /e/OS, and I'm thinking about upgrading next year, since the battery is starting to act up.

    Are there any phones released in the past few years that are a decent upgrade and that support a privacy-oriented ROM?

    I can go up to 500USD, but I live in a 3rd world country, so Fairphones, Pixels, and some other phones aren't available here.

    Thank you in advance!

    Can Bash aliases be nested?

    For example if I have a setup like:

     alias ll = ls -la
        
     alias llaa = pwd && ll'''
    
    Will the second command work, or would I have to set it up in a more verbose manner (like alias llaa = pwd && ls -la)

    what is the recommended procedure for replacing a pool on TrueNAS?

    I bought some new drives to replace the old ones I had lying around, and want to replace them entirely (4x 1tb -> 2x 4tb). I have a few apps running on it (Syncthing, Transmission, Tailscale, etc.), and I wanted to know what the best way to perform a drive upgrade would be. AFAIK the apps are installed on the pool as well, so will I just have to reinstall them from scratch?

    The motherboard has 5 SATA ports, which are all currently occupied, so I don't know if I can do an "in-house" replacement.

    What EldenSoulsBorne boss gave you an embarrassing amount of trouble?

    Many bosses are really hard and have racked up a dozen kills per player.

    What boss has the community labeled as a pushover that you've died an embarrassing number of times to?

    Crystal Sage from DS3 has killed me at least 8 times every playthrough, but every forum I've visited has made them seem easy.

    Navidrome functionality

    [Cross-posted from [email protected]]

    I have Navidrome set up on my home server running TrueNAS, and I've set up a few playlists there via the web interface. However, I've noticed that the android apps with OpenSubsonic support do not allow me to create playlists on them. Are there any apps with this feature (as well as local download support), or is this not supported over OpenSubsonic?

    Accessing NAS when not on LAN

    So I have a TrueNAS server set up at home, and it would be cool to have access to it at all times. I currently have Syncthing set up to access and back up my most essential files on my phone and laptop, but it would be nice to be able to access all the ... legally obtained files I have stored there wherever I go. I looked into Nextcloud, but that requires paying for a domain. So are there any other options for this?

    How do I get links within a NAS working on multiple OS?

    Hello again. I have several movies saved on my NAS, and wanted to have them in one folder for easy searching while also having folders for specific genres.

    I tried creating some symlinks on my Linux machine, but those aren't visible on Windows or Android. I then tried creating shortcuts on a Windows machine, but those don't work on Linux or Android.

    Is there any hope for setting up universally recognized symlinks/shortcuts?

    Accessing NAS from phone

    Hi all. I recently (yesterday) set up a TrueNAS Core server from some old hardware I had lying around, and it feels great to be self-hosting!

    I currently only have Syncthing set up on it for a couple of files, but I'd like to be able to manage all the files on the pool from my phone if I need to. What would be the best software to accomplish this?

    Hi, all I'm going to list games here, and you can DM me to ask for the code. I'll try to timeously update the post to exclude games someone's already claimed, but please don't be upset if you miss out on one you wanted.

    Have any brave souls out there been daily driving the open Nvidia driver on their gaming rigs?

    These drivers are listed as "alpha quality", and they're not technically the full open driver, but how are they compared to Nouveau or the usual closed driver? How's the stability and performance?
