I just shut down the containers before backing up and it has worked totally fine

Of course LTT hired the investigator, who else would hire an investigator?

Easy way to try out a bunch of different DEs? (lemmy.world)

I'm planning on moving (back) to Linux from Windows, but I'm not sure which desktop environment I want to use. What's the easiest way to try them all out? Just do a bunch of dnf/apt installs? Is there a distro or project out there that makes this easier?

Looking to try out kde, gnome, budgie, cinnamon, xfce, others

Can't add gas meter to energy dashboard (lemmy.world)

I have a gas meter that I am reading through rtlamr2mqtt that I am trying to add to the Energy dashboard, but it does not show up in the dropdown. I have checked the FAQ and it seems like my sensor is setup correctly... any ideas?

Best cases and components for a quiet gaming build? (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago by PotatoPotato@lemmy.world to c/sffpc@lemmy.world

I'm looking to make a "media console" type build that will live under my tv. Main purpose will be playing games at 1080p@60fps

I had a build with a Ryzen 2600 and r9 390 in a Fractal Node 202 but it could get really loud. What's the best way to make a quiet gaming build? Would a higher end GPU that is under volted be best? Or just a mid range GPU at stock settings?
