[royal forge]

Give or take

[hard drift]

Galax are over engineered OC cards

[royal forge]

Im assumin 4MYR to USD

[jaunty light]

Which galax

All the cards will perform the same p much. So find a bench of which ones got a better cooler design, or warranty

[royal forge]

Er. Gimme a mo

Cuz theres a few

And inno3D

[jaunty light]

Damn zotac warranty in USA sucks

2 years wtf

[royal forge]

Oh

there's an EVGA RTX 3090 XC3 for 1200 USD

[jaunty light]

nope

[royal forge]

Galax GeForce RTX 3090 Ti EX Gamer for 1200 USD or thereabouts

Inno 3D Ichi X3 < what the fuck this name

for ALSO 1200

[jaunty light]

3090 or 3090 ti

[royal forge]

3090

TO BE HONEST

[jaunty light]

get Ti if its same price

[deep sapphire]

Honk

[royal forge]

Um, the Ti IS from a lesser known store

so there's the risk of fuckery

[deep sapphire]

Yeah don’t risk it

[royal forge]

But i'll googlefu around on reviews

[jaunty light]

if its brand new and warrantied from MFG i wouldnt worry but then again your laptop and all

in america we'd just go into the store with a tank and wreck it

[deep sapphire]

Plus a weeb is trying to get you to trust him

[royal forge]

I mean

[deep sapphire]

True Americans are judge and jury

Fuck with me I’m blowing your hand off

[royal forge]

There's ALSO, the Galax 3090ti GAMER for RM5,499.00

so thats.....

UH

around 1140?

[bitter girder]

Hope it doesn't rain later so I can finally obtain

[jaunty light]

its gonna rain so you better abstain

[bitter girder]

No

[jaunty light]

embrac the succ

[bitter girder]

Annnd it rains after I finish this job

[royal forge]

ngl

the 3090 ti gamer looks

cheap

the fans

[jaunty light]

cant expect much for a card named GAMER

[royal forge]

See, the MSI tri 3090 is going for 1400

so you see, i get nervous when a better card is cheaper than the competitors card

[jaunty light]

brands are brands u aint buying a garage special

[dull garnet]

thonic bewm

[jaunty light]

if the store isnt reputable dont buy from em but galax is a known brand

[dull garnet]

buy the cheapest one ez

[royal forge]

it's the "why is it cheaper" thought that gets me

like, WHY can it be cheaper

the "what's your game" tag on the side might be a legit deal breaker

LMAO

[modest moss]

Should be fine if you left the door shut

[jaunty light]

whats the worst that could happen just eat it

[dreamy chasm]

I just told them to get a b660

[modest moss]

That thing saying toss eggs

Bruh you don't even need to store them in the fridge

Sure they last longer but it's not essential

Eggs ain't in the fridge in the supermarket

[dreamy chasm]

You just get a locked multiplier

Boost behaviour stays the same

And it boosts to 5.1 on its own if you give it enough cooling, so

[modest moss]

If the z690 is only a little more I'd get that

[dreamy chasm]

Equivalent z690 boards quality wise usually cost a good chunk more

[modest moss]

Can oc in a few years to extend life

[dreamy chasm]

low end z690 isnt great

[modest moss]

Yeah it's a tradeoff based on what aoi can get

[dreamy chasm]

its also 100 bucks more

iirc

pricing in MY is diff

maybe

[royal forge]

hold on, which mobos we talking?

sorry. I was browsing GPUs just now

3090ti for 9k, same shop selling 4090 for 8k

https://tenor.com/view/inugami-korone-processing-thinking-pondering-calculating-gif-24147534

but yea, z790, z690, was it?

[modest moss]

Aoi was showing combo z790 cpu/mobo deals so we're just saying not to ignore z690 deals if there are any

But again, fuck this aoi rabbit hole

[royal forge]

these are rough prices

[modest moss]

Bounce

[royal forge]

for a z690

a z790 is ABOUT the same

same price*

diff stores

i thought we settled on the B660 tomahawk

the z790 and 690 stuff is AROUND 500 ringgit more?

uh

give or take one to two hundred bucks

[dreamy chasm]

yeah, that isn't worth it unless you have fuck-you money laying around

[dull garnet]

here's your garbage but perfectly acceptable motherboard bro

[dreamy chasm]

The cooling on those vrms look a little sketch

[royal forge]

Lemme browse around more then

[dreamy chasm]

I'm talking about

what icehunter sent

[royal forge]

The 3090ti was a surprise tho

Ye ye

Galax 3090ti for 5k

[dreamy chasm]

but yeah, idk, a b660 should be fine

[royal forge]

Das QUITE good

[dreamy chasm]

What's the warranty on it

[royal forge]

UH

Um

Well

Complicated

[dreamy chasm]

[royal forge]

Its like

Its dependent about whether the shop will help me with the warranty

Or give me the runaround

Ye

I guess so

(Which is why i DID debate buying the zotac from amazon)

And like.. just prayin they dont notice its for US

[dreamy chasm]

there's nothing wrong with the chipset

the vrms on it are good

[royal forge]

But the galax 3090 is certainly a pleasant surprise

I'll have to ask the seller a bit more

Inno3D < galax i assume?

[dreamy chasm]

I can't say, check reviews, all cards have different coolers regardless of the brand

Only thing I can say outwardly is that one might have better warranty policy than the other

[royal forge]

Hmm

[modest moss]

inno3d are widely sold here

they are one of those ok brands like zotac or pallit

[bitter girder]

[dull garnet]

lol

[bitter girder]

Hmmmmmm

[dull garnet]

new ltt saying every time they tried amd gpus their production workflow was interrupted with driver issues

[jaunty light]

skill issue

paid by nvidia

[dull garnet]

[jaunty light]

linus probably grips the whole girthy card with his butter hands and drops it multiple times

then says its an AMD issue

[kindred brook]

I FINALLY DID IT

I FINISHED MY BUILD

[night leaf]

Is going from GTX 1660 Super to a RX6650 XT a decent choice?

[dull garnet]

seems like a decent step

[dull garnet]

that seems like a great deal

[hard drift]

it's about 1.5x better for gaming at 1440p

[night leaf]

I'm good with 1080p

1440p makes me dizzy and gets me headaches, so

[hard drift]

???

[dull garnet]

lol

[hard drift]

brain overload

[night leaf]

But good to know about the card

[hard drift]

yeah, at 1080p it's still going to be decent gains

[night leaf]

Any particular brand I should look for on that card?

[dull garnet]

amd

[night leaf]

8GB XFX Radeon RX 6650 XT SWFT210 Core GAMING retail is for 340€

[dull garnet]

I would literally just get the cheapest one

skirting close to 3060 Ti money there

[kindred brook]

yeah my brother got it for me

its pick up only

[jaunty light]

if only i coulda got dat 170 dolla 5800x3d

[kindred brook]

closest microcenter I live next to

is like

8 hours away lol

[night leaf]

It's the cheapest one

[kindred brook]

the taxes tho and cost of living around one

pretty high

Lol

i wonder sometimes about people who put their chair up so high that it's almost touching the bottom of the desk

[kindred brook]

oh lmfao

[dull garnet]

Should have got the hs50m

[sly elk]

if it were me, I'd get the HS8s 😄

having giant white speakers

[dull garnet]

Having them 2 ft from your head is stupid

[sly elk]

true

hmm i wonder if studio monitors have a volume range where they sound best

now that I think about it

I remember having this complaint about the ipod hi-fi

it only sounded good past a certain volume

at low volume it offered nothing that you couldn't get from any cheap ipod dock

[late basalt]

Gas spring compresses when you sit

[jaunty light]

why does this dude have a garden pail full of miniature baguettes

[sly elk]

i think theyr'e drum sticks or something

man if I sat with the desktop on my lap like that

i'd have to have some really tall monitor arms lmao

[dull garnet]

Much too short

[sly elk]

yea I know lowering the desk to where your upper arms are parallel with your body is ideal

(and your elbows make 90 degree angles)

but if i lower my desk that much my monitors are way too low lol

[sly elk]

lol I like this pic

[dull garnet]

Chad

[sly elk]

maybe the ps5 is for her and he's carrying it for her

lol this is how it is for one of my work friends. his wife spends tooooons of time playing KRPGs and JRPGs

[dull garnet]

Maybe the 4090 is for her and he's carrying it

[sly elk]

he even complains about it

like he goes to the work sponsored gatherings alone and whines about his wife not wanting to come with him

[sly elk]

also a possibility!

ya know what, I'd be proud of that!

[dull garnet]

My gf mainly just plays Minecraft to my dismay

Can't stop looking at her waist

[bitter girder]

cute

[dull garnet]

[jaunty light]

that 4090 box is fucking huge

[dull garnet]

That's what she said

[bitter girder]

[dull garnet]

Hope he bought the expanded storage option

Modern problems require modern solutions

[bitter girder]

MacBook Pro

Horny on main

I saw that

Uncut gems was a good movie

could be worse i have a physical firewall that loves to kick off televisions

its been 2 years and i still dont know how to fix it ahaha

man uses wifi for light bulbs

[sly elk]

i thought the pros with the panda keyboard had speakers on the sides

guess not lol

[bitter girder]

they do

[sly elk]

oh derp nvm yours does have speakers

my macbook pro is old now 😄

[bitter girder]

i originally was never gonna own a macbook

but i liked my mac mini i wish i got an air instead of it

later down the road i had hardware issue with my zenbook pro and decided to pull the trigger and buy a macbook pro

and actually have nothing to complain about

[sly elk]

^^

they are nice

[bitter girder]

1 problem actually

the screen is a smudge magnet ahahahahaha

[sly elk]

lol

[bitter girder]

im gonna go back to iphone once my contract ends in 2024

[sly elk]

what are you using now?

[bitter girder]

xperia 1 iii

software is incredibly bad

[sly elk]

what tempted you to get it?

[bitter girder]

honestly

i dont know

i cant jump ship early either

[deep sapphire]

Sony phones suck ass

[bitter girder]

they do

[deep sapphire]

didnt you shill the fuck out of it too

[bitter girder]

its the software mainly thats the issue

[deep sapphire]

[bitter girder]

i've got a decent deal with it but its just not a good experience as it was

android 12 made it awful

[sly elk]

the problem with android phones is they work great with the software they were sold with, and that's all that is guaranteed. updates may screw it up.

[bitter girder]

yeah 100%

[sly elk]

and often the software they ship with has a bug.

so you have to upgrade lol

also, carrier roms are bullshit

[bitter girder]

carrier locked phones in the uk are kinda rare now

thankfully

[deep sapphire]

I had a sony phone a few years ago, it was easily the worst phone ive ever owned

same story as everyone else

great hardware

embarrassingly bad software

[bitter girder]

yep

is a shame

oh well

also

[deep sapphire]

a sham

[bitter girder]

the worst thing about sony phones

[deep sapphire]

report sony to the FTC

for scamming people

[bitter girder]

the trade in value is non existent

[deep sapphire]

while an iPhone gets you 80 percent

[deep sapphire]

holy shit

really?

[bitter girder]

THAT BAD MAN

[deep sapphire]

that'd be a great used phone then

[bitter girder]

init

i really want to end the contract now but its just not worth it

im actually just stuck against my will

meme is right if i end the contract i still have to send the phone back to the company

i might be wrong i might call em up soon and see if i dont have to send it in i might be able to get a few hundred back from it

might go to apple refurbished and get a 256gb 12 pro max

[deep sapphire]

call sony up and say they are a scam dogshit company

I want too after buying the XM4s

[bitter girder]

bc if i get it used from them its guaranteed the battery has been replaced

the xm4 headphones honestly

[deep sapphire]

once again, GREAT hardware

[bitter girder]

good water resistance

[deep sapphire]

DOG SHIT software

[bitter girder]

but too bassy

you're walking and it fucks with the anc

[deep sapphire]

plus the ear tips are beyond unreliable

[bitter girder]

ahaahaahaha

true

[deep sapphire]

im not gonna spend 20 minutes on a fuckin lathe rolling these things before I put them in my ear

[bitter girder]

their linkbuds s are okay

[deep sapphire]

and aftermarket ones just fuckin fall out of your ear

[bitter girder]

yep

i dont want to get airpods pros 2 but like

[deep sapphire]

the most frustrating things ive ever owned

and I regret it

I hate sony

I legit hate sony

[bitter girder]

i do

[deep sapphire]

I wish they went out of business

fuck them fuck them fuck them

[bitter girder]

i used to think exactly the same

at least the software for their playstations are good

i like the part where no one can get them though

@deep sapphire with your xm4s did you ever have ambient sound control on

and you'd be walking and it would randomly detect that you've said something when you didnt

and it would just pause the music for 20 seconds

[deep sapphire]

DUDE AND IT FUCKIN PUASES YOPUR

YES

AOPSI9DJ0PASIOJHDFASD

FUCKIN DOG SHIT

[bitter girder]

i legit threw one of them on the floor out of pure anger because it once ahhaaha

[deep sapphire]

or tapping your earbud

and it does nothing

tap again

[bitter girder]

YEAH

[deep sapphire]

does nothing

TAP AGAIN

like FIX YOUR FUCKING SHIT

THIS IS A 250 DOLLAR FUCKIN PRODUCT

[bitter girder]

the xm4 in ears sound so good its such a fucking shame

[deep sapphire]

and if you were on iPhone the sound quality was a complete random guess

because over 70 percent volume the quality dipped drastically

and it wasnt even loud at 100 percent

[bitter girder]

no no no

dude

they were like that on my xperia

one day really good

go outside to work

[deep sapphire]

oh my god

[bitter girder]

sounds like horse shit

[deep sapphire]

I just figured it was how bad it was on iOS

[bitter girder]

i thought that was just me

[deep sapphire]

oh

[bitter girder]

what the fuck

[deep sapphire]

OH

and

it use to fuckin

turn my system sound volume down

which is your alarms too

so I wouldnt wake up

[bitter girder]

my sony phone does that itself

[deep sapphire]

because the fuckin earbuds just decided to randomly turn my alarm volume off

[bitter girder]

i woke up and almost snapped it in half

[deep sapphire]

like I legit dont get it

how can you charge so much for your shit

and be this bad

on a regular basis

[bitter girder]

literally no quality check

and the firmware update process

LOL

[deep sapphire]

yeah you have to have them in your ear like ???

why cant you have them in the case

[bitter girder]

apple does it without you fucking knowing

and its actually so fucking seamless

[deep sapphire]

sony is what made me go back to apple

and reading what you said

just cracked me up

[bitter girder]

ahahahahahahahahah pain man fucking pain

[deep sapphire]

[bitter girder]

thing is right

i bought the sony from themat first

just to try it out

and then sent it back happy and got it on contract

boy was that

A FUCKING MISTAKE

[deep sapphire]

hahahaha

like

even back in the day

my PS2 broke for no reason

barely even used it

[bitter girder]

sony likes to indulge you and fuck you over in the long run

[deep sapphire]

my PS3 had the yellow light

somehow my 360 never RROD'd

[bitter girder]

mine never either

the 360 arcade i had

[deep sapphire]

how is this company still tricking people all these years

[bitter girder]

still fucking works but threw it away because i treated it like shit

[deep sapphire]

haha

I had a 360 elite, yeah I never did anything special to it. never cleaned it or anything

guess just got lucky

[bitter girder]

we got the good batchahahahaha

[deep sapphire]

my PS3 got fuckin hot though god damn

[bitter girder]

we're the only people in the world to of had good xbox 360s

[deep sapphire]

touch the back of it burn your hand off

[bitter girder]

feature

remember that psn feature they had

where they let someone steal everyones information

[deep sapphire]

I remember trying to figure out how you switch the output from standard def to high def

[bitter girder]

that was cool

[deep sapphire]

and it was like

hold the power button down for like 10 fuckin seconds

like wtf is that

[bitter girder]

AHAHAHAHAH WHAT

[deep sapphire]

swear to god

[bitter girder]

imagine having to change the resolution by doing a power and eject button combo

[deep sapphire]

I had the 2nd gen one

the slim or w/e

and it only came with standard def cables

[bitter girder]

no way

[deep sapphire]

so when I got an HDMI cable

I got no video out

I was super confused

and then I found that out

[bitter girder]

OHH IT FUCKING WOW

the fact the firmware does not auto detect afterwards

wow

[deep sapphire]

right

[bitter girder]

wow

[deep sapphire]

SONY MAKE.BELIEVE THEY ARE GOOD

[bitter girder]

they say believe

they want you to believe

[deep sapphire]

yeah, like im not even mad they have low market share in phones

they deserve it

[bitter girder]

well wanna hear the biggest L of my life

[deep sapphire]

fuckin leave already, stop tricking people

[bitter girder]

i spent £600 on one of their tvs to find out its their entry level 2022 tv

it literally has no features

[deep sapphire]

hahaha you can get some shitty westinghouse for 3x less money and it looks no different

hurrdurr bravia looks the best

yeah whatever maybe slightly

[bitter girder]

my 2019 £400 bravia

fucking beats it

im done with sony

i like their playstation 5

but apart from that

i fucking hate them

the problem with sony aswell when you realise you've just been played

its too fucking late

this is my fucking joker story

sony when they're about to go bankrupt but start doing really well because they dropped prices on everything and started to do good software

[deep sapphire]

LMAO

Only reason PS is doing well is probably because they left Japan

In the 90s

Sony made some good shit

But it’s like they got cocky

And stopped caring

We had a nice ass trinitron

[bitter girder]

Yep

[deep sapphire]

Discman was the best CD player by far

[bitter girder]

i also like how they're milking the fuck out of one franchise for playstation

[deep sapphire]

Could be worse, Microsoft seems to never learned anything lol

[bitter girder]

i have not played the last of us and because they've milked the absolute shit out of it i do not care at all about it now

[deep sapphire]

“We have exclusives?”

[bitter girder]

buys out everything

[deep sapphire]

Does absolutely nothing with them or let’s everyone buy them anyway

Like okay that’s nice and all but that gives you zero reason to buy an Xbox lol

Like why even bother making the console they make no money on them anyway

[bitter girder]

gamepass

thats all they care about is gamepass

[deep sapphire]

Halo infinite was by far the biggest joke of the decade

[bitter girder]

100%

[deep sapphire]

Delayed multiple times

Complete trash supporting it

[bitter girder]

it was only good because it was better than 4 and 5

still doesnt make it a good game

[deep sapphire]

343 literally says “we don’t want to make halo anymore”

[bitter girder]

the bar was incredible low

[deep sapphire]

Wym that’s WHY YOUR STUDIO WAS MADE

[bitter girder]

HAHAHAHAHAHAA

THHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA

NAH im crying

[deep sapphire]

[bitter girder]

i really hope bungie starts making new ips soon

destiny was good

[deep sapphire]

and Forza

Oh boy

[bitter girder]

but im bored of it now

[deep sapphire]

They’re just as lazy

Like when was the last time we got a motor sports game

[bitter girder]

they're making a new one

[deep sapphire]

They’ve made 3 horizon games since 7 came out

I’m sorry but horizon gets old quickly

[bitter girder]

it does 100%

[deep sapphire]

They aren’t bad games

But I don’t like sandbox games

[bitter girder]

its fun racing around a a sandbox

but it gets boring quick

i played it like 10 minutes a day

mainly just to relax and drive around in a virtual world ahahah

not to play the games core

[deep sapphire]

Plus the vehicle selection is just boring like it’s mostly high end cars like what made forza great was you got to buy regular boring cars too

[bitter girder]

gran turismo is still great

they sorted the micro transaction part out a bit i havent really seen it become a problem yet

but it still feels like good old gt

[deep sapphire]

Yeah it seems decent from what I saw

[bitter girder]

my complaint for gran turismo 7 is

[deep sapphire]

They learned from sport

[bitter girder]

you have a cafe to go to for briefing right

you cant choose the coffee

its just black americano

[deep sapphire]

LOL wtf

[bitter girder]

man i want latte

[deep sapphire]

cant enjoy the lounge menu music with no cream and sugar

[bitter girder]

exactly

[deep sapphire]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0k5rdU-m7A lets bring back these

[bitter girder]

i brought my ps5 over my uncles and we played on it for 9 hours

[deep sapphire]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhKdgsWvDFA

forza motorsport 4

it was so good ahahahahahhaha

[deep sapphire]

hahahaha

game telling you to pick one of the 5 shitty cars and you dont even want too cause the music slaps

[sly elk]

I was planning to buy one before i went on vacation last month lol but i didn't and my 2014 was fine

[deep sapphire]

[sly elk]

the new design is kind of a tibook throwback

[bitter girder]

hank

do i get the iphone 15 when it comes out

or do i get an older model

[sly elk]

in terms of lower body shape anyway

[deep sapphire]

the 14 just came out

get it when carriers are gonna throw them on sale

[bitter girder]

oh yeah thats true

[deep sapphire]

[bitter girder]

we'll see how much they charge for the 15

im gonna try out magsafe

[deep sapphire]

on one hand yes they should be adopting USB C

on the other, the connector doesnt hold up well over time

its not micro usb bad

[bitter girder]

but its still a port that wears out

[deep sapphire]

but lightning never seems to go bad

[bitter girder]

oh

[deep sapphire]

its always felt like a tight connection even 3 years after owning it

[sly elk]

my favorite thing about macbook pros is how smoothly they open and close

[bitter girder]

@sly elk one problem with the macbook pros

it aint life ruining but

[sly elk]

as long as you keep the port clean

[bitter girder]

the hdmi port is a lil loose

[sly elk]

but the lightning cables apple includes are crap

[deep sapphire]

yeah I have to clean mine out haha

and that is also true

I have an anker one thats held up well for multiple years

[sly elk]

I will agree that I think usb-c is more delicate

buuut

ok here's the thing

[bitter girder]

heres the thing

[sly elk]

if you wirelessly charge your phone

[bitter girder]

theres 6045345435345345 different gens of usb c

[sly elk]

I think the usb-c durability goes out the window

[deep sapphire]

if they made the data path faster for lightning I would rather they kept lightning

[sly elk]

apple never uses usb 3.1 over lightning

[deep sapphire]

right

[bitter girder]

2.0

lol

[sly elk]

i'd still be ever so slightly in favor of dumping lightning just because it's apple-exclusive

[deep sapphire]

one can argue hardly anyone uses it for that but its still not excusable

[sly elk]

and I don't hate apple

back when the 5 was new and the lightning connector was introduced, I think it was perfect

[deep sapphire]

as long as we can all agree usb c is still more reliable than any sony product

[bitter girder]

ahahahahahahahaa

[sly elk]

lol

[deep sapphire]

micro usb was by far the worst port ever made

like wtf

[bitter girder]

100%

[deep sapphire]

I bought a fuckin milwaukee head lantern

MICRO USB

LIKE WTF

[bitter girder]

noooooooo

my external drive for my macbook is that weird micro usb

with the extra thing for 3.0 speeds

[deep sapphire]

oh my god

that one was even worse

thankfully that never took off lol

[bitter girder]

im never ever gonna remove it

[deep sapphire]

LMAO

[bitter girder]

im terrified of it

[deep sapphire]

just super glue it in

[bitter girder]

eya hahahahahahahaha

even e cigs use usb c now

[deep sapphire]

my e cig charges at 40w explodes in your mouth

[bitter girder]

Tfw an e cig has a better port than my 2022 external drive

fuck it im turning it into a storage device

[sly elk]

but the nice thing about phones with usb-c is you don't even have to use phone stuff on them

you can use a laptop charger

[bitter girder]

hold up

[sly elk]

you can use a laptop dock ffs

[bitter girder]

what if i plug my phone into my laptop with the usb c to magsafe

[sly elk]

like if I plug my (fucking) samsungs into a usb-c dock it'll work with the keyboard/monitor/mouse

[sly elk]

hehehehehe

[bitter girder]

brb killing my macbook

[sly elk]

LOL

good luck

[deep sapphire]

its also kinda ironic that apple helped invent it

and then doesnt use it

like okay

[bitter girder]

OMFG

GUYS

[deep sapphire]

hey whats up

[bitter girder]

AHAHHAAHHA

[deep sapphire]

tell andrew and alex I said hi

[bitter girder]

[deep sapphire]

[bitter girder]

[deep sapphire]

the phone knows it sucks, its giving juice to the better device

yeah hahahahaha

[bitter girder]

[sly elk]

there is only 1 thing I don't like about the new mbp

[deep sapphire]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxfjTqaP6zM

DICK

[bitter girder]

ahhahahhahaahha

[sly elk]

the curved screen edges are totally an oldschool vibe thing

[bitter girder]

nah its cool

i like it

[sly elk]

oh i love the curved edges

it has the window curves like old Mac OS X did

[bitter girder]

once i forgot i had face time open right

i went on a porn site

and the notch was green

[bitter girder]

and fuck i spooked myserlf

this is whats behind the notch

[sly elk]

i miss the oldschool mac look

with the floating jelly buttons

and the pinstripes

[bitter girder]

mac os just has vibes doesnt it

mac os ui design is literally the same as fashion clothes

[deep sapphire]

someone at my work has a set of OTC wrenches

I legit forgot they even existed

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OTC_Tool_Company

[bitter girder]

cock and ball

[deep sapphire]

they mostly make specialized automotive repair shit

hahahahahaha

CnB tools

[bitter girder]

ahahahahahaha

[sly elk]

https://youtu.be/2UC9bcPhIZs?t=28

[bitter girder]

"Grip-O-Matic" cock and ball tools

[sly elk]

also their qemu is slow af

[deep sapphire]

hahahahahahaha

this music makes me think im watching a WoW tutorial from 2011

[bitter girder]

when ever i think about wow i just think about the blue dress song

[deep sapphire]

I remember OSX being extremely slow hahahahaha

they put that shit on everything

all the eMacs at school ran so slow

[sly elk]

tbh

they probably didn't have enough ram

[deep sapphire]

like maybe this doesnt belong on a computer with a 700 MHz processor

[sly elk]

also they never should have used single CPU machines with Mac OS X

[bitter girder]

and this

https://youtu.be/nCem2c_apoM?t=83

[deep sapphire]

holy shit I just spit out my beer

[sly elk]

i was using a dual 800mhz g4 with 768mb ram

it ran OS X just fine

[bitter girder]

we dont need no bubble boys

[sly elk]

having a 2nd cpu made things livable back in that time thouhg

like even on the windows side

a dual proc machine was way better

[deep sapphire]

I can see some guy named steve in the comments "HAHAHA YEAH BRO I REMEMBER GETTING OFF MY WAREHOUSE JOB WHEN I WAS 22 AND WE MADE THIS"

https://youtu.be/L_Qsq9J3g8g?t=164

[deep sapphire]

if they did half the place would explode

[bitter girder]

sense make i guess

[deep sapphire]

[bitter girder]

yeah but

either way

you either fix it

success

or blow up

also success

win win

[deep sapphire]

yeah exactly

[bitter girder]

i'd personally want it to blow up because you'd instantly get high off your own adrenaline

[deep sapphire]

and if it exploded you were out having a smoke away from the place

"thats fucked... oh well time to go on indeed.com"

[bitter girder]

explodes and gets done for smoking in a public building
