I would hope 16C/32T CPU from 2017 could handle software transcoding
I didn’t say it couldn’t handle it. Just that it was very inefficient.
peak power consumption while playing a movie does not really matter compared to idle power consumption
I mentioned both things. Did you actually read my comments?
I think it’s a point of a interest for any hw running 24/7 but you do you.
Regarding transcoding, are you saying you’re not even doing it? If you are, doing it with your cpu is far more inefficient than using a gpu. But again, different strokes I guess.
Isn’t ryzen not recommended for transcoding? Plus, I’ve read that power efficiency isn’t great. Mostly regarding idle power consumption.
Lemmy is getting most of its contributions from people that migrated from Reddit. Reddit had (and has) tons of more content people still came here looking for a better alternative.
Hopefully you can now see the similarity.
This is very ironic coming from someone using Lemmy.
So? Every platform starts at 0%.
No. You can’t game on it meaning that the games do not even launch.
I don’t think your experience is representative of a generic user. This level from Level1Techs paints a completely different picture. Gaming for example, is pretty much out of the picture in the ARM version of Windows.
Does it? All of the “windows on arm” video I’ve seen say that tons of things are broken.
It also makes the app show your own profile to fewer people.
Are you referring to distros? Just pick one that’s widely used and that’s it.
You can use it online. Or, even better, use something like LibreOffice. For adobe and autodesk you’re SOL but that’s very intentional and it sucks. The only solution is a VM.
I don’t really get this. You can’t avoid using cmd on windows either when shit goes wrong. There’s nothing strange there.
