  • I think support frames start making the cut only once you don’t need high damage frames to make up for lack of damage, unless you foresee playing with a team.

    For instance, I never quite managed to master Volt in spite of it being one of my favorite frames, just because my low weapon damage output and survivability would always force me back into high damage/defense frames.

    I also believe that the way some utility frames work is too much of a wall of text for me to care. I feel this especially with Octavia, Titania and a few others. Everything past Zephyr got too convoluted and it’s only logical that people won’t care for it unless there’s an extremely good reason for it (see people caring to learn how to use Wisp).

    I tried to wrap my mind around Citrine, and even though I’m enjoying it, I can’t help but feel like the kit is as wonky and weird as it gets. I’m sure this happens with other new frames that are not purely “press 4 to kill”.

















  • I am running the RX6500XT graphics card, which if you try to use in a plug and play fashion, you’re completely out of luck when it comes to running any mildly new game out there in ultra or high settings.

    However, the AMD Adrenaline software allows you to mess up with upscaling and many, many other goodies for you to fine tune performance and reach that ultra or high quality in (pretty much) all the games I usually play.

    There’s no way I’m playing with low settings on Linux when AMD developed some amazing tools for people that like hacking around with their cards. It’s just a pity they still work only on Windows.

    Edit: in my experience, ROCm didn’t work in my particular card. Moreover, in order to try an installation of those drivers I was forced to use distros I’m not familiar with like Ubuntu. I had to ssh to my university labs for any ML task.
