Because I don’t use them. I either keep them in a pile at the bottom of a drawer or they go to a landfill.

Just because it’s less that becomes e-waste since I don’t need them.

And you could still have them at the same price.

I think the issue is that for these companies, it’s cheaper to only make one SKU that includes the adapter (or sometimes a mini and full adapter) rather than making 2 or 3 separate SKUs. That costs extra money for the separate packaging, branding, registering UPC symbols, etc. and they’re not sure if there’s enough demand for it. And the profit margins on SD cards are razor thin already, so there’s not much room to experiment with stuff like that.

It sucks for the environment.

Is now a good time to start a peertube channel?

im still debating wether i start a peertube channel or not, and im no pro but we all have to start somewhere. ive aksed variouse family member si know if i should do some sort of video content creation. i was thinking gaming but there are so many genres im not sure plus i have school and im worried it might make my life more...

I’d say go for it. Even if you don’t make a lot of content right away, you can still get a feel for how Peertube works, how to set up your channels, add thumbnails, how to automate closed captioning, etc.

Plus the hardest part will be choosing an instance, looking at the videos posted and seeing if you want your videos on that instance (extreme politics, NSFW stuff, etc). Plus see what their instance rules are; anyplace that says everyone is welcome here is eventually going to become a gathering spot for a–holes that got banned somewhere else.

I started my channel about a month ago during the Reddit migration. So far I’ve fallen behind on putting out videos, but it’s still a fun hobby.

Additionally, if your server disappears cough VLemmy cough you should be able to load a backup from somewhere and register your channels on another server. I realize this is still a crawl-walk-run scenario and that’s going to be far in the future. But we can still hope for it.

Need help getting eldenring to use prime offload

Hello! I recently switched from arch linux to nixos about a month ago. Up till now everything has been flawless. Im running on a laptop with integrate graphics and a nvidia 3060. Recently eldenring has stopped using my gaphics card when run with nvidia-offload, other games like apex linux still seam to use it. Im at a loss on...

When it was working, did you have to put in any command line arguments or did it work on its own?

In my case, direct3d(dxvk) games always choose discrete graphics, but openGL always chooses internal and I have to force it from the command line.

It exists for the clueless. Elite users use RebeccaBlackOS

“… one of those God-ugly American Pickup Trucks …”

Why’d you say American Pickup Trucks twice?

I kid, but really those things are hideous. The front end looks like a Baleen whale feeding.

@fediverse Vlemmy refugees logging in from elsewhere, how's it working?

I had 3 communities I was trying to build up and now, nothing. I finally made a new Lemmy account, but I don’t know if I want to restart those communities.

I’m thinking about starting my own instance (with blackjack and hookers of course) but that has its own set of headaches. I just want to make content, not spend my day being an admin.
