Why bother paying a premium for a 2230 and putting it in a desktop? omegabruh

Clever idea, at least. I don't know if I would have thought of that. Holds it down while being thin enough to allow it to radiate heat instead of say a stick of wood or cardboard

#

send them to Sarah, I bet she could solder on new ones for a lot less in about 5 minutes

dull garnet
#

or buy a hot air rework station for $50 and do it yourself

modest moss
#

or use them as trade ins when samsung run a decent offer

dull garnet
#

i've done one before with desolder braid but that's annoying

#

alternatively look after your devices

#

yeah that looks more fucky than a usual port

#

hot air required

cerulean talon
#

Mmmm. Hot air rework is the best kind of suffering for soldering tho.

#

Other than ginormous ground planes.

#

Those are pretty good too.

how did you go from 8 letters to 9 letters to 10 letters and think 'same letters'

sly elk
#

at this point
intel ARC: Actual budget GPU
AMD Radeon 6000s: GPU for people who want more performance and fewer driver bugs than ARC , and have more $$
Nvidia RTX 30: Unobtanium
Nvidia RTX 40 series: "Yo dawg I decided to try this computer gaming thing out and bought a dual xeon rig with 5 RTX 4090s in it. Think it'll run cyberpunk 2077 at 60fps with RTX on?"
Redditors to the RTX 4090 chad: "Maybe. If you're using 1080p"

#

Other redditors: "You need a 4080 or faster to do 144hz on 1440p, otherwise just get a 1080p monitor"

#

i still wonder what kinda clusterfuck game can't do 144fps on a 3080ti/3090

dull garnet
#

Ask it how to have a working computer

sly elk
#

I heard that during the first few days, chatgpt was able to write actual software better than those bloated overpaid silicon valley programmer types

#

but then wokeness won over and now it can't even tell you what the weather is

#

<that was major sarcasm>

uneven spade
modest moss
#

my 3070ti mostly does that at 1440p

#

except for stuff like jacked up rtx in cyberpunk type shit

uneven spade
#

I assume they look at this from the point of. 1440p@144 with max RT which is alright fair

#

but tbh. people are looking way too much at "max settings"

#

the difference between high and ultra is usually like 5% difference in quality yet the performance cost is like 40%

dull garnet
#

The real answer is

#

"it depends"

uneven spade
#

some might give you a genuine objective advice but the vibes I get from r/nvidia are basically that people there really tend to overestimate the reality

#

also if I have to be real. out of Ada cards

#

only the 4090 is worth its money

#

4070Ti and 4080 need serious price cuts to be considered "viable"

#

but I don't expect it to happen. there are already rumors that NVIDIA might price the 4070 non Ti at 750$

dull garnet
#

Any overly big subreddit is worthless

#

Too many cooks

#

Checked the Nvidia store for funs, they only have 4080 and 4090 listed now :(

uneven spade
#

gonna stick with the 3080 10GB until the 50 series. either might pick a 5080 or go for a used 4090 (depending on the price and other features)

#

I thought about AMD but I just can't trust their drivers at all on Windows + need CUDA specifically

dull garnet
#

I kinda want a used FE 3090 for funs

#

But I'd need a new PSU too

uneven spade
#

You better off to aim for the 3090Ti instead. since you have less RAM chips to deal with (both are still 24GB)

#

better OCing results and less heat

dull garnet
#

🤔

uneven spade
#

add option C, test the GPUs without any upscaling

sharp star
#

Option D: all of the above

uneven spade
#

that will be like idk, 100+ benchmarks if HUB decides to make another video with a lot of GPUs being tested

#

while very useful. producing those videos will likely take forever

sharp star
#

real talk though

#

people care more about rasterization than ray tracing or upscaling

dull garnet
#

#

that's pretty much how you can keep modern games remotely playable on old cards like the 1060/rx580 and etc

sharp star
#

I guess

#

ray tracing is at the bottom of the priority list for me

uneven spade
#

RT is certainly impressive and Overdrive in Cyberpunk looks amazing. but the problem with RT is that its not really viable for most people. so developers aren't making full use out of it

#

its a cool tech that we needed for a long time but that's a long process to go through

paper tusk
#

path tracing is probably the long term goal since ray tracing is too expensive relative to the end experience

sharp star
#

WAIT

#

the 4070 is $750+?

#

Come the fuck on Nvidia

What're you gonna do

Buy an AMD card?

#

So I'm thinking about replacing stock coolers at work because I fucking hate stock coolers

#

Should I just get the Thermalright Peerless Assassin/Deepcool AK620?

paper tusk
#

sounds good but might be annoying to size the case up (if it's to replace a hockey puck oem jobber)

sly elk
#

just run the case without the side door

are they even running hot?

Is the Steelseries arena 7 worth getting or should I just get the arena 3?

when things don't go thermalright, go thermalleft

heh

never saw this before

#

my favorite quirk is the system controller can drain the batteries down to the point you have to use a special external charger to get the batteries to work again lol

paper tusk
#

the feeling when the most basic binch chineseium battery management can do better than that

#

(oh but it can run linux!)

sly elk
#

and the damn thing's like 95% made in china anyway

#

ok maybe more like 75%

wraith agate
#

Ah yes

#

Privacy

sly elk
#

aside from the horrid looking lower case and the janky battery controller

#

I like the idea of a fully open source machine

#

hmm maybe not the firmware for the system controller or the motherboard 😦

or the soc...

oh wait the motherboard is a carrier board for a som

be neat if it was pin compatible with a jetson som lol

#

@cerulean talon oi you seen like the fella to ask, what platform do you recommend for a dedicated hypervisor box?

#

EXSCI and 10G Networking. Storage is on another system so the local drives can be literally a 2tb drive

#

Probably gonna host 10-15 machines

cerulean talon
#

Depends on how much cpu you need and if they need any specific processor extension

#

About half of the houses windows infra is virtual on a esxi box running a 3xxx Ryzen and a 10gbe card

potent arrow
#

Fuck you really are me in the future

#

I'm basically doing the same thing but with a 5600x

#

-_-

cerulean talon
#

Well. The 5950x isn't virtualized

#

It's the main nas instead :D

#

Tbh, consumer chips are fine for 99% of virt loads imo

potent arrow
#

Mines just dying lol

cerulean talon
#

I am planning on swapping my last phys boxes and my nas to epycs this year if I land this job tho

potent arrow
#

So I was wondering if anything was new and better then an off the shelf 5600x

cerulean talon
#

7003s are dropping like bricks in price

#

Not down to consumer prices, but more than cheap enough for my need of high grade internal infra

potent arrow
#

I thhhhhhhhink I have AMD-V extensions.....

#

........

#

Maybe

cerulean talon
#

Amd-v is just amds vm exts

#

It's be more stuff like "do you use the sha256 exts"

void dove
# night leaf

Amazingly, I knew all of those, except the apple ports

potent arrow
#

Probably not

#

Maybe

void dove
#

Beacuse fuck apple

cerulean talon
#

Yeah, just throw a decent desktop chip in imo

potent arrow
#

Idk like I built this when I was younger and been upgrading it with AM4 chips till now

#

So I'll be basically redoing it from the ground up

#

Actually figure out what I was doing

cerulean talon
#

I like Talia's setup for a small vm host, I'll pull out it's specs when I get out of bed

sharp star
#

I got a couple of Thermalright Peerless Assassins in the mail today, gonna run Prime95 on an Intel system to see if it runs as advertised and if it truly is a Noctua killer

cerulean talon
#

Runs like 600$ for the entire thing, and that's w/ 128g of ram

#

Lands you a passable xeon processor and 2x10gbe onboard

potent arrow
#

I'm tired of hitting a light switch and then HASSIO turning on a blender because CPU load spiked causing it to somehow magically misread my config YAMLs

#

Whatever the fuck I'm doing for xbee capture needs to be redone too

cerulean talon
#

Slapped a sas hba in her, and got 8 ssds :3

potent arrow
#

Which I'm not looking forward too because I have no idea how it works

#

Maybe switch to z wave or something

potent arrow
cerulean talon
#

This is the core of talia

potent arrow
#

How is that so cheap

#

Is that standard io?

cerulean talon
#

Embedded xeon, not the greatest chip, but ecc is 50ish for 32 gig

#

Yes

#

Has dual 10gigs and ipmi

potent arrow
#

Oh niiice

cerulean talon
#

Mmhmm

#

Also has room for a self-powered sata boot drive

#

Then 5 built in sata jacks and a nice nvme port

#

Don't mind me, just future you here tempting you

#

I legit might build 1-2 more boxes in this spec soon for various support vm putposes

#

To support the big epycs

potent arrow
#

-_- there is no escaping this fate

#

The fact that you do not have a centralized server room scares me too

cerulean talon
#

:3

potent arrow
#

I've always dreamed about having a proper rack room, but I end up just having a ton of systems everywhere instead

#

...it doesn't get better does it

cerulean talon
#

It does eventually tbh

potent arrow
#

.....

cerulean talon
#

You start to be able to get actually powerful systems, build the core infra to a stable point

#

Like a full network overhaul to 10gig helps, because now you're in a state where sharing data across hosts is less useful

potent arrow
#

Yeaaaaah

cerulean talon
#

Questions like "oh, streaming this much data is annoying" goes away and you can centralize eventually

potent arrow
#

Only my main machine and Nas are in 10gig

cerulean talon
#

It's what's letting me even consider scrapping a bunch of machines to vms

potent arrow
#

Bruh "is annoying" is an understatement

cerulean talon
#

Throwing hundreds of gigs of data across the net regularly makes it hard

#

Now with dual 10gigs to anything important with dual 25s soon to the nas storage arrays

potent arrow
#

Rather then full net transfer, I just run downstairs with a 2.5 SSD and throw it into the toaster dock that's plugged into the NAS

cerulean talon
#

It's really trivial to throw stuff anywhere

potent arrow
#

Open terminal and copy the files over

cerulean talon
#

Yeah, we can saturate 10gbit regularly, but it's fast enough it's not worth moving disks for

potent arrow
#

The files are pre dumped into a loading folder so I don't have to find it, all I do is wake the monitor and press the up arrow to load the last copy command

#

-______-

cerulean talon
#

Next house is gonna have 40gig backhauls tho

#

Already decided on that

potent arrow
#

Ughhh i wisssssh

#

Mannnnn

cerulean talon
#

Hopefully I hear about second round interviews in the next day or two

potent arrow
#

10gig I want please

cerulean talon
#

Then I can go back to planning my 1pb nas

potent arrow
#

Idc, is it so hard to ask

#

Just for me to have a nice infra

cerulean talon
#

Depends on how you define nice

#

xD

potent arrow
#

Fair, I assume to most mine is overkill

#

But like what I have now isn't...nice to me

cerulean talon
#

I wouldn't know that feeling at all

potent arrow
#

...do we ever get satisfied with our set up....

#

....does the constant improvement stop

cerulean talon
#

Do you really want me to answer that?

potent arrow
#

....

cerulean talon
#

That shiver you just had of existential dread.

#

You know

potent arrow
#

Yeah I always feared there's no endgame

#

Just fucking constant upgrades and tweaks

cerulean talon
#

There is eventually, at least for me

#

I've had particular plans for years, and they're not unsimilar to some of your dreams

wraith agate
#

One day we will run out of Moore's law

cerulean talon
#

Moore's law isn't the issue with our setupa

wraith agate
#

Then?

cerulean talon
#

This is more about the joy and fun we get for the insane setups we want to build

wraith agate
#

Ah fair

potent arrow
#

its the constant obsession to live on the bleeding edge and finding ways to play with new tech and making our flow more efficient

wraith agate
#

Hey Codingway, build me a PC

cerulean talon
#

By far and away, I have more cpu than I should ever need, except for the fact I love to push the limits and love knowing how hw works

potent arrow
#

Yep

#

What is aid but more elegant rofl

cerulean talon
#

If your in the us, I can just ship you something retired :p

potent arrow
#

Do you think we can like

#

Get scalable ARM cpus eventually

cerulean talon
#

Some day, yeah

potent arrow
#

Like good ones

cerulean talon
#

It's on the Todo to eventually get an arm rig in the setup, as well as a power9 and risx

potent arrow
#

I want to get an arm rig but idk where to look yet

cerulean talon
#

There's not much good out there yet

potent arrow
#

I do have like a pile of cyclone boards for development hell but nothing with actual processing power

cerulean talon
#

The arm crowd needs to stop making so many different processor extensions, then I can consider it

#

Tbh, I figure I'm 30-40k away from my final form of computing setup for the next decade or so

#

Not including desktop upgrades

#

But for my internal infra needs at the least

potent arrow
#

This sounds insane but I think once I rehaul infra and barring from desktop, I don't think I'm gonna do too much vertical upgrades for a bit

#

I'm heavily fixated on ARM development rn and I would save up for a top of the line arm processor if there's a good one

cerulean talon
#

Most of my cost is going to be ram and drives, cpus are cheap af atm

potent arrow
#

Drives man

cerulean talon
#

64core epycs are like 2k rn

potent arrow
#

That's where I am at

#

I can't even shuck anymore because WD/Seagate is now using none sata drives

cerulean talon
#

My want for 500tb of ssd flash and 1pb of drives is gonna hurt

potent arrow
#

I don't know what to buy for flash rn

cerulean talon
#

Then I might do a 256th nvme array

potent arrow
#

Afraid of Samsung with degradation issues and Intel drives are sooooooo expensive

wraith agate

I did make a small game engine in C

cerulean talon
potent arrow
#

Wasn't too bad

cerulean talon
#

Lots of play game engines are passion projects

potent arrow
#

Wasn't too functional

#

It worked....ish...

Oh no, the mill is for fueling my KFC addiction

I'd just fry my own chicken, but KFC is mid here in vegas

#

Codingway you can stick with internal tool development and I'll stick with my RF stuff

wraith agate

also maybe getting HRT on the black market

We find a way to form a demon child of a company, hmu

potent arrow
#

Oh god

cerulean talon
potent arrow
#

I mean we could totally get into space industry tbh

cerulean talon
#

True

potent arrow
#

Our skills do line up with stuff like low powered monitoring systems

cerulean talon
#

I've got some contacts with astra? I think

potent arrow
#

And communications and stuff right

cerulean talon
#

I'd have to see who's in the chats I know, they owe me a favor, maybe we get a reduced cost launch seat

wraith agate
#

I can jump in on networking

#

Also got knowledge in C

potent arrow
#

I would just rely on the stuff NORSATS use

cerulean talon
#

I need to do my ham studies soon too

potent arrow
#

Codingway you seen that stuff?

#

It's so cool

wraith agate
#

Do you think computer vision has a usage in space stuff?

cerulean talon
#

Not offhand, but I don't pay too much attention to space

potent arrow
#

I mean it's being used rn as we speak

cerulean talon
#

I've got a cv project I need to get back to which could make some thicc cash

#

Because nerds are too lazy to sort TCG collections, including myself

potent arrow
wraith agate
#

I can recommend OpenCV, I wanted to spec into augmented reality but school forced us to do self-driving car

potent arrow
cerulean talon
#

Opencv is t powerful enough

#

Already played with it, I'll have.to do a custom model train

wraith agate
#

That's what we did too

cerulean talon
#

Thankfully, my model set is really only a couple hundred thousand images max due to limited input width

potent arrow
#

Also if we get into space things ever, you'll have to keep me away from tasting the kapton sheets

wraith agate
#

We ended up with a custom built RC car that was self-driving based on signs and also could read Shakespeare.... don't ask

cerulean talon
#

Why? Kapton is tasty

potent arrow
#

....

#

There's no hope for us

cerulean talon
#

It's way better than pvc insulation

wraith agate
#

Also I can confirm kapton is yummy

cerulean talon
#

Don't even get me started on low quality silicone . Blah

potent arrow
#

Blegh

#

Welp back to working on my car >_ >

cerulean talon
#

How to tell someones work on hardware, we've got tierlists for wire insulation

potent arrow
#

Still won't start

cerulean talon
#

Oof, I gotta get mine on the lift and redo some suspension bolts soon

wraith agate
#

But yeah honestly kapton is an amazing stuff

potent arrow
#

That come from china

#

In cheap wire bundles

cerulean talon
#

That shit was naaaaasty

potent arrow
#

Aaaaaaaaaa that shit fucking sucks cuz if you don't strip it enough, and solder it to a board it melts and gasses the fuck out of you

#

400 PAIR????

cerulean talon
#

Yeah

#

Dad got it off a job site when they finished install

wraith agate
#

Oh yeah, didn't China's rover stopped moving for the past few months?

cerulean talon
#

Armored, shielded, grounded, the whole 9

potent arrow
#

How do you even terminate or solder that stuff

#

Without damaging the neighboring pairs

cerulean talon
#

It was solid core from 20+ years ago

potent arrow
#

Aaaaaa

#

You would need a massive terminal block

#

Has too ne

cerulean talon
#

I'm an old man, alreaight :p

#

We also used that stuff for hookup wire for most of my childhood

#

\o/ my baofengs just shipped

potent arrow
#

You know what I use for bulk hookup or like bodge wires?

wraith agate

#

But I need some cheapies for using around town and events

potent arrow
#

According my liscence it can definitely bleed into the bad juju bands lol

cerulean talon
#

I need to get mine so I can hit transmit

potent arrow

Weirdly my amateur liscence was bundled in with my red cross training here

cerulean talon
#

potent arrow

cerulean talon
#

I want to get technician eventually

potent arrow
#

No need for me

cerulean talon
#

I don't need it, but I want it

potent arrow
#

Fuck you right lol

#

You know what I need?

cerulean talon
#

Besides, I have to make sure future you knows what he'll you're in for

potent arrow
#

All of the Google microcerts

cerulean talon
#

A full chip fab in your house?

potent arrow
#

LOL

#

I have my CCNA, if I get all the microcerts from Google I'll be set

cerulean talon
#

If hf wasn't so corrosive, I'd seriously consider it tbh

#

Ew, ccna

potent arrow
#

I have some just chilling in my garage lol

potent arrow
#

Came with a college course

#

And I was like sure I just take it

cerulean talon
#

I don't keep hf around, but I do keep high grade sulfuric

#

Oh, that's okay theb

#

*then

wraith agate

Hmm

Just a resume bolster

cerulean talon
#

Cisco and I don't get along

potent arrow
#

Cisco and any network nerd born in this century doesn't get along

wraith agate
#

Can you repurpose a 3D printer as chip prefab?

potent arrow
#

Cisco is aging so poorly

#

Do you have a lithography set up?

cerulean talon
#

Nah, you can do most of it in a spincoater and with some litho setups, like a mf camera

wraith agate
#

I don't even have a 3D printer

#

😭

cerulean talon
#

But you really don't want to get into etchibg and doping imo

potent arrow
#

I have a hasseblad

#

R u telling me I can get a litho set up lol

cerulean talon
#

Yaaaas, my boba pearls are being delivered today

#

Yeah, check out applied science

He did a full study on microwtching features using a mf camera for it's lens elements

Oh yeah I have him subscribed

He's insane

cerulean talon

He's normal

Just like you and me :D

wraith agate

He's normally insane

potent arrow
#

Right...

#

Mmmm

wraith agate
#

I should get back into watching applied science

potent arrow
#

Fuck when can I call myself fullstack

#

Do I really need mobile dev

cerulean talon
#

Frontend is the only thing keeping me from the fs moniker

wraith agate
#

Do you know jscript?

cerulean talon
#

And I'm learning react

#

potent arrow
#

For me it's mostly mobile dev

cerulean talon
#

Fuck mobile, embrace responsive webapps

potent arrow
#

Yeaaaaaaasssss

wraith agate
#

Okay react

cerulean talon
#

Thankfully, the next job will likely require 0 js work

potent arrow
#

I think I need to know more about ansible/Jenkins too

cerulean talon
#

Which will be nice, I'm way faster at real languages

potent arrow
#

Idk if Jenkins is still used

cerulean talon

It's not

cerulean talon

Back to nerdy conversation

#

Ansible, chef, terraform

#

Depends on your taste and industry,

wraith agate
#

What terraform do?

cerulean talon
#

Terraform is infrastructure as code, mostly designed to wrap deployments to cloud providers via an agnostic interface

#

Really, infrastructure as yaml

wraith agate
#

Lol

cerulean talon
#

But to make devops people feel better, we now call yaml code

potent arrow

Yaml yaml yaml yaml yaml yaml yaml

How to sum up the last 5 years of software in one word: YAML

cerulean talon

I hate yaml more than I hate apple

And that's saying something

It's better than HTML imo

potent arrow

I hate yaml and Ruby

Excuse me?

cerulean talon

did you need sulfuric and not, like, acetic? lmao

#

seems like a flex more than anything else

#

"I could use the cheap stuff, but nah"

cerulean talon

Yeah sulfuric is better for stripping the copper

wraith agate

Doesn't acetic disolve silver?

potent arrow

Kupobot seems like it's always in intensive care lol

I thought the worst part was the lights

Nah, you can't even see em from my house

potent arrow

Much more stable is relative man

wraith agate
#

Lucky

cerulean talon
#

I'm 10-ish miles from the strip

wraith agate
#

So.... you're not in vegas

cerulean talon
#

The strip isnt in vegas

#

The strip is in paradise city

wraith agate
#

Or you're in actual vegas

#

I can't remember which way it goes

cerulean talon
#

I'm in actual Vegas, though I'm west of the strip

wraith agate
#

Aha

#

So not paradise city

cerulean talon
#

But paradise, nv is where the strip is, not Las Vegas itself

wraith agate
#

I am smort

cerulean talon

Yo

cerulean talon

First step is to build an ai catgirl

We should transfer our consciousness into a Intel 80286

cerulean talon
#

Only if it's rad-hard

#

I'm not gonna let some spicy banana fuck up my processing with a bit flip

potent arrow
#

LOL

#

Then we can use a PIC then

cerulean talon
#

Mmmm

potent arrow
#

Those are invincible

#

I promise

cerulean talon
#

I'm okay ish with this option

#

I mean, I know, I wrote cod efor them in my teens that still works today

#

It's a pic, they never change

potent arrow
#

Isn't it great

#

I love that they are still used today for embedded applications

#

They literally do not go away

cerulean talon
#

Yeah, tbh, I want to play with the 2040 more

#

I really want to make it my uc of choice into the future

potent arrow
#

Chad PIC vs Virgin atmega

cerulean talon
#

Atmega is trash anyway

#

Like trash of the trashiest order

potent arrow
#

Atmel AVR haha

cerulean talon
#

Only cool thing they have is the weird fused pin allocations

#

The pio system on the 2040 is neat af to me tho

potent arrow
#

My professor I quote "I can tell who really works in the industry when I ask them Atmel or PIC"

cerulean talon
#

Even if I'm too stupid to use it yet

potent arrow
#

Man

#

Imagine finding an Atmel chilling in the wild

#

Like none prototype application

#

Permanent installation

cerulean talon
#

I dont have to, I have 3d printers

#

They're super common as rtos chips in those envs

potent arrow
#

That fucking sucks

cerulean talon
#

It's not ideal

#

Hrm, I wonder what a spool of 2040s are going for

potent arrow
#

Is there nothing cheaper for RTOS?

cerulean talon
#

Well, a reel I should say

#

Not really, it's also the hobbiest mindset moved to production envs

#

Lots of 3d printer rtos firmware was written for atmega and worse, auctal arduino

potent arrow
#

Yeaaaah Atmel is definitely hobbiest mindset

cerulean talon
#

Hrm, I might get myself a reel of 2040s to play with

potent arrow
#

So I'm biased cuz I'm Canadian

#

But my school teaches a lot of QNXN for RTOS

cerulean talon
#

I have the worst case of "build up projects while I work" then do them when I'm unemployed :D

potent arrow
#

Runs off a Cortex M33

cerulean talon
#

Damn Canadians and your biases

potent arrow
#

I think RIM used a lot of QNXN so it bled to our secondary education

cerulean talon
#

Tbh, I've never gotten into them much, iirc freertos tends to be the common-ish stomping grounds

#

Nothing I do needs rtos level precision

potent arrow
#

Nice it gets as low as 9KB

#

Well progrom

#

But wew

Tbh, if you need that sort of precision, I’d assume you’d be able to pay/afford for it

I need to do that w/ cleave auctually

Make it roll a 100 and have it post a HONK or HONK related meme instead of a cat girl

late basalt
#

Nah, Nissan for the extra hankness

potent arrow
cerulean talon

I mean if I wanted it to be a good meme, I'd just put a Chevy in

potent arrow
#

Oooh

#

oh oh coding?

cerulean talon
#

It's the first opt-in command versus kupos usual opt-out

potent arrow
#

I was gonna ask do you plan on integrating kupo verify with the global role system?

cerulean talon
#

Eventually

potent arrow
#

Idk how discord made it native nkw

#

It's actually insane for me to think about

cerulean talon
#

We'll see if eanae wants to go that way, the more important thing I the short term is that I'm planning out per-server characters

#

So you can have multiple chars in kupo at last

#

It's an api system, discord calls an endpoint on your bot to fill discorda side w/ data

#

It's kinda jank, but works-ish

potent arrow
#

Kinda jank workish is literally discord in a nutshell

cerulean talon
#

The main issue is lodestone requests

potent arrow
#

How locked down is lodestone

cerulean talon
#

As the api should use lodestone, which means I'd need to finish my distributed lodestone scraper

#

Uh, it doesn't have an api?

potent arrow
#

O

cerulean talon
#

So we make our own from webscrapers

potent arrow
#

Oh my fuck lmfao

#

I thought it was a se api all along

cerulean talon
#

Nope

potent arrow
#

That would explain the update latency

cerulean talon
#

We build our own GigaChad

#

Xivapi offers one, but kupo can exceed it's ratelimit

potent arrow
#

...I mean how many requests does kupo do a day?

cerulean talon
#

Every !me

potent arrow
#

:3 yikes

cerulean talon
#

Is 7

potent arrow
#

OH

#

My god

cerulean talon
#

It's htnl

potent arrow
#

you said kupobot was stable

cerulean talon
#

Err html

#

We can't get it dowb

#

*down

potent arrow
#

I guess you didnt say it was efficient....

cerulean talon
#

We need data from 5 lodestone pages +char image

#

So we need 6 html requests + the img pull

#

It's literally as efficient as we can get due to how bad square is

potent arrow
#

Tf is the hosting cost with all of these traffic from the requests

cerulean talon
#

For lodestone or kupo?

#

Kupo runs on a single 8 core vm due to intelligent design

potent arrow
#

Kupo

#

Hmm

cerulean talon
#

Even then, he's only using 2 cores actively of the 8

#

And most of m his cpu time is spent in decompressing json or parsing it

potent arrow
#

That's actually pretty decent

cerulean talon
#

I could probably get it down to one core if I rewrite it all in golang.

#

And yeah, when you consider he's in 50k+ servers, it's p.decebt

#

But one of my goals with kupo is to leave it semi-maintainable for eanae and anyone else who works on it into the future

#

Which means golang is a nogo

potent arrow
#

Blegh

#

Dammit stop distracting me

Every friend I have with a job that involves picking up something heavier than a laptop more than twice a week eventually finds a way to slip something like this into conversation: “Bro,1 you don’t work hard. I just worked a 4700-hour week digging a tunnel under Mordor with a screwdriver.”

making the new switch not backwards compatible, is the stupidest thing ever to do

#

why would you need to want to have to hold two switches to be able to play games from the same-ish platform

#

as like, nintendo ds games is compatible with nintendo 3ds

#

but nintendo 3ds is not compatible with nintendo ds

#

it is ok for it to not have full backwards combatible, but then the game must have a free upgrade path

#

to the new version

#

His theory is that if they are going to use the next Gen arm chip with nvidia

#

The code isn't going to be backwards compatible

wide hill
#

both are arm's right?

kindred brook
#

So developers would have to do other fixes

#

It's based on how the switch loads the games

#

Each game would require software emulation

#

A simple solution would be to add the x1

wide hill
#

ok, so let's assume it isn't backwards compatible at all.

then it should be appearant, that you should be allowed to redeem a free copy of the old game to the new system.

and, that the new sdk is easy to port over.

patching prod servers went pretty well despite a few hiccups, surprised this didn't turn out into an all day kind of thing so i left work early

#

rented out a storage unit to set up shop too, i think i might use it to finally build that pc i've always wanted to build among other things

#

couldn't use my place because i don't like the idea of building over carpet even if i could just probably tap something every now and then

#

you rented a storage room to build a single pc?

modern iris
#

And then tweak it if it's outdated stuff the guides are doing

modern iris
#

I'll probably tinker around lots with stuff over time as I get more comfy with it

#

Kind of need to learn soldering too at some point

#

big plans 8)

#

but definitely starting out with pc build first especially while i study for this A+ thing-y

#

i bought those expensive study materials from comptia but it's not really helpful hands-on, they have simulated lab things but idk, i think i'll do better if I can actually build something hands on
