My best friend gave me his sound blaster after upgrading to the Pro. Later I upgraded to a Gravis Ultrasound. Offloading sound processing to the sound card (1MB) improved gaming performance significantly.

Windows 11 is now automatically enabling OneDrive folder backup without asking permission in c/technology

Oddly enough, OneDrive is the least of my problems with windows. It’s pretty handy at work since I have to juggle tasks between multiple PCs. My only hang up with Linux is games, which is odd since time wise I don’t spend most of my time there.

Are there any household gadgets you found unexpectedly useful after you'd gotten them? in c/asklemmy

[–] renrenPDX 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I was under the impression that my source was food grade as well, but I noticed it when coming from soda stream to kegged carb water having a slight bitter taste. Disappeared with the filter and subsequent refills for both soda and beer. It could very well be how strong I made the carb water too.

Ability to subscribe to a curated Community list. Is this/can this be a thing? (self.asklemmy)

After setting up accounts on different Lemmy instances, I think it would be great for a new user to be able to easily subscribe to a bunch of communities without doing it one by one. It doesn't strictly have to be curated; it could be top 50 posts count or whatever. You can then add or remove additional communities.
I feel it would save a considerable amount of clicking and searching for the active communities.
