Why UE 5 is so bloated? - sh.itjust.works
Have anyone else noticed that UE 5 is significantly harder to run than other
game engines in the current generation. Every game that uses UE 5 is hard to run
and the visuals doesn’t look worth the performance hit. Games from other engines
and Games uses UE 4 is so much better. Just take a look at S.T.A.L.K.E.R, yes
they might be qble to optimise it more but even games less buggy if it’s UE 5
it’s hard to run. I play a LOT of AA games that uses UE 4 and all of them hits
100+ fps without breaking a sweat while still looking beautiful. It’s crazy. Why
do you think this is? Also while you’re commenting, drop the best performing 9th
gen game you’ve played too!
Non toxic mobile privacy community - sh.itjust.works
So I’ve been in the rabbit hole of android privacy for some time, last I joined
the GrapheneOS community but let’s just say that they doesn’t have a “healthy”
opinion about other projects like f-droid. So I am looking for generic
communities that focus on mobile privacy that doesn’t have drama or toxicity or
“extreme opinions”. Any suggestions? I prefer chat based communities like matrix
or simplex instead of like reddit or lemmy.

What is the best cloud storage provider right now? - sh.itjust.works
What is the best cloud storage that gives a nice balance between features and
privacy? I know you can manually encrypt files to use any provider, but I would
prefer an open source E2EE for the sake of convenience. Currently I have heard
about the following: - proton - filen - sync - icedrive - pcloud (Not including
GDrive, Onedrive etc…)
List of really good AA games? - sh.itjust.works
I 'd like to get some AA (not AAA) games to play as I tend to like games in that
category the most. If anyone has good suggestions, or better a full list of
games to check out, that would be very appreciated. I look into all genres, but
the most I like is FPS, Action RPGs, and if possible good open worlds.
Good AA single player games? - sh.itjust.works
Hello, I guess everyone knows the current state of AAA games in general, so I am
looking into other game markets. I have looked into indie games , but while I do
like it, I feel the budgetary constraints and dvelopment limitations are a limit
to indie games. Does anyone can suggest good AA games or AAA titles without crap
in it? My go to genre is FPS, open world games and story based games in general.
Also, no need to mention popular games, I am looking more for “hidden gems”, if
you will. Thanks.
100°C CPU when recording gameplay - sh.itjust.works
Lately I was trying to record some gameplay from my laptop using MSI
afterburner. The game was old and was easily hitting 100+ FPS, so I recorded
with x264vfw with fast settings at 90FPS. The game dropped to around 60-70fps,
and the CPU almost immediately hit 100°C and throttled to like half the clock
than normal. Is this normal? The CPU in question is i7 12650H, normal clocks are
around 4.2GHz, at worst case during recording it dipped to 2.7GHz. What can I do
to improve this?
Installed GOS and am loving it - sh.itjust.works
Installed grapheneOS on my pixel (finally) the other day. Actually was loving
stock, until it got corrupted due to a bug. Had to factory reset to boot up
again. Anyway, used that opportunity to install GOS. NGL I do miss adaptive
features and now playing, but I am liking GOS more and more day by day. Better
battery life despite not having adaptive features, more security options like
sensor permission and scopes, auto reboot if not unlocked feature and all that.
I use GPay and my bank app on a secondary profile. works seamlessly. Some UI
improvements and adaptive features and it will be on par with the stock pixel
experience itself.
Wire messenger - a lost cause. - sh.itjust.works
It seems like yet another good messenger app has become shit. I am of course
talking about wire. I REALLY like where it didn’t need my phone number to sign
up, unlike signal does. Also they heavily market it towards corporates and
governments. Back when I first started to use it, they had the old UI. It was
good looking, it had a lot of normie fun stuff like scribble and GIF (I can live
without it but always a +) and it worked fine at start. It didn’t need my phone
number, so it was a BIG +. So I started to use it with my friends and family.
After finally convincing them to join here, issues started popping up. Messages
aren’t being notified to the users. I mean fun stuff is good but THE ONE THING
eveey messenger MUST have is to NOTIFY THE PEOPLE. I tried turning on websocket
connection, helping my peers troubleshoot and all but NO. NO NOTIFICATION
WHATSOVER TO THEM, or rarely they get a delayed one. Left it temporarily in hunt
for other apps. Session was too buggy in connecting to nodes, simpleX is a bit
too hard to connect with links and stuff, briar is also like simplex, so after
long time I came back to wire in desperation hoping they have fixed this, as
again IT IS THE ONE THING A MESSAGING APP MUST HAVE. But nope. NO NOTIFICATIONS.
It came to the point I can’t communicate with them unless I SMS them (I don’t
use whatsapp). And finally, I took the decision. I apologized to them and
deleted my wire account. Thinking for now let’s f***ing use signal (the other
option is whatsapp so yeah). WHY WE CAN’T HAVE A SINGLE GOOD APP THAT BALANCES
BETWEEN CONVENIENCE, USABILITY AND PRIVACY? Is there any app, even paid ones
that fits as a perfect alternative? (By payment I mean crypto based, otherwise
it’s basically as bad as giving the phone number)
