guh

[stray siren]

Pretty much I find blown capacitors to cause flickering in them. Other than that it's get it above like 85 Hz.

Or just hit it with the DC and resistive controller

There's also some sort of ones that are well into the kHz range, and I hear a distinct high pitch whirr from them at different brightness levels. I've found this on headlights, and on flashlights.

And when those died on me it was either dying LED, or dying PWM chip also associated with dying crystal if it were a crystal controlled one.

[robust relic]

checked it out, why are some pages on separate subdomains altogether?

[lost furnace]

I don't know

Wait subdomains?

[gray karma]

cuz funnie

[lost furnace]

Maybe

Idk

I don't recall adding other subdomains tho

[robust relic]

ig, but it makes it slow af

wtf

thats vencord right

120M total requests is fucking insane

[harsh minnow]

yes

[lost furnace]

Oh that's intentional

[pine zephyr]

hm

[robust relic]

cf ate my ddos requests :(

[gray karma]

do you have a paid cloudflare plan

[pine zephyr]

i should check mine

[gray karma]

[harsh minnow]

cloudflare loves 2tb bandwidth usage

[gray karma]

is it static

or does it have a backend

[harsh minnow]

[pine zephyr]

statss

[harsh minnow]

it's hybrid

[lost furnace]

I don't know

[gray karma]

so like static that uses a backend api like for stats for example?

[harsh minnow]

some pages are static but https://vencord.dev/plugins is auto generated based on the current plugin data and the result is cached for 5 minutes

[lost furnace]

And I don't care enough atm to change anything

[gray karma]

OH

OHH

that makes sense

i set my website to have a 1y ttl

[somber leaf]

I can very easily see 60hz and I assume you can but I didnt think something like 85hz would be enough to make it go away

I have a massive monitor that I don’t use anymore that’s shit that I wanna make a diffused light panel out of for cheap. Was thinking of a USB-PD board for just 12 volt and wire it directly into a PWM dial and some high CRI white led strips

For fun

[jolly temple]

its just a ellipse of metal basically

[lost furnace]

Okay nerd

[stray siren]

Actually now I'm not sure lmao. I was thinking of it like a CRT montior. Actually not sure what Hz is needed to make an LED PWM seem smooth. I assume it's well into the kHz range though because I hear the high pitch whirr from some I have running LEDs

[lost furnace]

[sand citrus]

why are they in front of carl johnsons house in grand theft auto san andreas

[sand citrus]

[somber leaf]

I wonder if PWM would trigger your average USB-PD charger current protection or something

[lost furnace]

cooks my pizza with bacon and pineapple in the oven take that Italians

[somber leaf]

Do LEDs have a spike load when power is first applied?

I might need a capacitor somewhere if so

[robust relic]

Inductors and capacitors are your friends on that.

I love cloudflare

Stay away from my pookie cloudflare

[stray siren]

I don't see an inrush causing it, but the dirty power made from PWM might trip up a crummy power supply that doesn't have good filtering in it

if this indie game showcase doesnt have prime 4 i will commit murder 😕

[stray siren]

Me when 8k+ color temp flickering at prolly 30Hz because it's behind a half-wave rectifier and resistor in a light fixture made of dangling glass balls hanging over the dinner table at a buddy's house. It just about makes me a nauseous headache. Constantly flashing off and on to me with the piercing light. No one else seems to notice it either. It doesn't always get me, but sometimes I just have a moment where my brain stops working, and then things like that get in my head bigtime.

Same I just find incandescent bulbs at estate sales for a dollar a box full of random bulbs. Smooth light no headaches. Although they're hard to use in the Summer, a good 10:1 heat production to light ratio. They are very nice to use in the Winter though. 700+ watts worth and it keeps the room super warm in the Winter.

My mother was mind blown to hear the somewhat modern flatscreen TV in the living room uses 330. Yeah just because it's new and improved and slim doesn't mean it uses nothing.

She never reads anything about devices. She's the one who plugs a 9v AC water fountain power supply into her 18v DC vacuum cleaner battery and wonders why it doesn't work, but she insists it should because the plugs fit, and her and I have a good 20 minute debate that my father has to break it up.

im wanted by interpol

[somber leaf]

That would require buying a voltage converter from 5 to 12 or 24

i do it already but the shit i use is annoying

[noble quest]

noo, not worth

[junior ridge]

i do anyway

[fallow drum]

why lol

[crude fern]

@paper gate

[fallow drum]

use something like posteo or whatever

hosting your own is useless and is 99% of the time just an inconvenience

[junior ridge]

i just set it up and honestly forgot about it

doesnt use much resources

[fallow drum]

self host everything you want but email is just not worth tbh

[junior ridge]

and just works

[stray siren]

mailed e's

[noble quest]

yup

[fallow drum]

even people who stand by privacy and self hosting 100% will tell you to not self host email

[fallow pawn]

@fallow drum

[fallow drum]

unless it's for a bysiness

@fallow pawnmaplesign alternatives!!!!

[junior ridge]

its not about privacy its just about being fun lol

[fallow drum]

oh okay then yeah

[noble quest]

even then just pay someone else

[fallow drum]

fun is always great

[fallow pawn]

All of them are on hold bc apple

[fallow drum]

wrong

i know everything

[fallow pawn]

theyre delaying stuff

[junior ridge]

i just like the fact that i own it entirely and whatnot, plus its fun doing stuff likethis

[fallow drum]

apple is delaying what

[fallow pawn]

giving out files + registering your udid

[fallow drum]

oh yeah it's for sure fun but it will never be convenient and good for email services. things like mailbox.org and posteo are amazing though

i would personally never do unless it was for a business

a small business

[junior ridge]

plus im also doing it for experience

as thats like

the entire point of my homelab lol

i doubt itll ever come to use really but

who knows

maybe that one day will come when i need to figure out why an smtp server isnt working

and my experience setting this up will help

[fallow drum]

that is why i also do my homelab stuff yeah

i may do email someday for fun but as of now it takes way too much time

we should replace emails with letters

and why it should do?

[keen kernel]

gmail goes under

majority of emails gone

including my own

[sturdy folio]

🔥

[keen kernel]

protonmail runs out of servers bc of large influx of users

[crude fern]

why do i have an image of @light cedar 's neofetch

[oak forge]

why

[keen kernel]

brb going to r/monkeyspaw and posting i wish gmail did not exist

[flat kelp]

both protonmail and tutanota is blocked in my country btw

[fallow drum]

all widespread technology has to advance at one point or another, and email has been stuck in the same place for a very long time. there a lot of standards and therefore there are a lot of vulnerabilities

[open pasture]

[crude fern]

why

[open pasture]

we have to neutralize bad actors

[open pasture]

and protect the children

[junior ridge]

cause :3

[fallow drum]

EU does some great things for privacy and all but they want things to not be encrypted so they can see "hate speech"

[crude fern]

it is what it is

[junior ridge]

you literally have just newer stuff than me 😭

[sturdy folio]

fym killed

[crude fern]

WORSE

[keen kernel]

to be entirely fair, encryption is i feel the #1 way to hide criminal activity

[junior ridge]

7800x3d vs 5800x3d

4070TiS vs 4070 regular 😭

[fringe cradle]

i love fakeprofile plugin

[fallow drum]

i know and idc much for encryption i just hate how people act like it's for more than just control

[flat kelp]

alongside alt mail.ru because protonmail emails cannot be accepted by local email providers by obvious reasos

[fallow drum]

he will die mysteriously lol

[noble quest]

man, i hate how criminals drink water, we should outlaw water for everyone so the criminals cant drink

[fallow drum]

it is really only a matter of time before telegram is done for tbf

[junior ridge]

THANK GOD

[sturdy folio]

[junior ridge]

@soft mosshuiiiiiii

[noble quest]

didnt he get charged with link 100 things

[fallow drum]

why would you not like telegram

[keen kernel]

depends on type of encryption

[junior ridge]

ive never used telegram i just hate it

cause why not

[fallow drum]

yeah

[junior ridge]

i love hating things ive never used

[sturdy scaffold]

i want to try out telegram

[keen kernel]

i cant personally find a good reason to use e2e encryption assuming you trust the company providing the chat services

like think about it

if you dont trust the company what stops them from giving you malware?

[fallow drum]

telegram has no ads, is encrypted, is lightweight, supports all platforms...

[fringe cradle]

anyone?

[fallow drum]

it is a great app

[crude fern]

ehats wrong w/that

[noble quest]

how tf do they make money

[crude fern]

y

[open pasture]

ive seen telegram like for a few bot thingies that i needed at some point

[sturdy scaffold]

is it just a messaging app right?

[keen kernel]

if you do trust the company then you shouldnt need to worry about e2e unless you are doing something illegal

[fallow drum]

they have their cheap subscription

[boreal torrent]

subscriptions

[fallow drum]

for random things

[noble quest]

ah

[open pasture]

i know nothin about it'

[fallow drum]

like something nobody would use

[flat kelp]

hot take: encryption in telegram is a lie

[crude fern]

i dont trust any company

[fallow drum]

encryption in telegram is complicated

not a lie

[boreal torrent]

proof?

[crude fern]

windows fetch

[junior ridge]

neofetch breaks on windows

lol

[keen kernel]

you clearly trust discord with your payment information

[open pasture]

meow nya mrrp :3

[junior ridge]

TRUE

[noble quest]

it even has l's to tell you how bad the os is
||this is a joke i love windows||

[fallow drum]

telegram has pro features for free and you can get better pro features for a small fee

[crude fern]

]honestly skill issue

[junior ridge]

i cant say anything ive had nitro consistantly for 6 years

[fallow drum]

pretty cool

[sturdy scaffold]

wait rlly?

[crude fern]

nope

[open pasture]

i love proprietary software

[boreal torrent]

because its bash

[open pasture]

especially osx and w11

[flat kelp]

the only actual e2e encryption is in secret chats, anything other is encrypted on server and can be easily decrypted

[keen kernel]

is it really all gifted even the avatar decorations?

[boreal torrent]

and it depends heavily on coreutils

[junior ridge]

i love

[noble quest]

why doessnt bash work on windows

[boreal torrent]

ye

[junior ridge]

i like how windows 11 looks but i hate windows with a PASSION

[boreal torrent]

then its not a lie

[sturdy scaffold]

understandable

[boreal torrent]

id rather use signal tho

[flat kelp]

partially

[open pasture]

i hate how w11 looks but i love windows with a passion

[keen kernel]

uh uhmm

dont make fun of my OS

[noble quest]

i hate windows 11 with a passion, but 10, 7, and vista were great

[sturdy folio]

the only thing i want on windows is a good polybar implementation

[junior ridge]

honestly not a big fan of 10

[crude fern]

then dont use windows

[sturdy folio]

and well i started on that but its in PYTHON and i hate having to work with it

[keen kernel]

10 wasnt great

[open pasture]

Windows was always great

[keen kernel]

7 was the last good one

[noble quest]

nop

[flat kelp]

signal got recently blocked too

[keen kernel]

7 was amazing

[crude fern]

windows was never good

take off your rose tinted glasses

[open pasture]

<|endoftext|>

[flat kelp]

i dont like it much through

yall

[crude fern]

Windows is still good

[junior ridge]

not really much of an option. trust me, ive tried

[crude fern]

wdym

[jaunty trellis]

[boreal torrent]

where

[open pasture]

you should switch to macos

[crude fern]

ive used winodws in a vm once this last year

[sturdy scaffold]

if microsoft didn't add ads onto their apps I would have liked windows

[sturdy folio]

id run linux if linux had apps to run

[flat kelp]

in russia

[open pasture]

same here

[crude fern]

like?

[open pasture]

linux has fuck all

it's just a kernel

[jolly temple]

protonmail

[keen kernel]

windows is good because i can actually rely on it to not break in some random bullshit way

[junior ridge]

games and some software i use do not work on linux, particularly due to the software being old and super obscure and needing really weird things to be installed to work, and then games are just cockblocked because the devs say no anticheat access for you, and no anticheat = no game

[open pasture]

this is xfce not Linux

[keen kernel]

literally yesterday

[sturdy scaffold]

when i get my asus zenbook pro duo i am installing linux on it

[keen kernel]

so youre saying i should use barebones linux?

no. i need to configure my linux to work

[junior ridge]

also i have a macbook

so

[crude fern]

syper old and obsucre is the same for windows

[keen kernel]

thats not what everyone wants

thats not "fun" for everyone

[open pasture]

BASED :3

[keen kernel]

thats in fact NOT fun for a lot of people

[junior ridge]

windows is not obscure

[fallow drum]

i love telegram as a company because of the way they do things. they handle business very well and for the people and they still make good money

[junior ridge]

old, sure maybe

[keen kernel]

a lot of people want something to work and be simple easy intuitive etc.

[crude fern]

thats for xfce

[junior ridge]

NT kernel is quite old

[crude fern]

i mean for the software

[fallow drum]

ceo may not be a great guy who knows but he is a business man for the people

[junior ridge]

but so is the linux kernel

[junior ridge]

oh

[crude fern]

if you wanna run 98 stuff you should just vm anywyas

lol

[open pasture]

~~im saying you should use linux with a desktop environment that fits your needs ~~ use MacOS lmao

[junior ridge]

yeah but at least i can install the stuff easier

[quasi ravine]

LMFAO

[boreal torrent]

when ppl say linux sucks theyre only talking about how the distros they tried r trash

[junior ridge]

not that old damn 😭

[crude fern]

true

again

[keen kernel]

macos is good for end users too

[junior ridge]

im thinking like xp era

[crude fern]

go with fedora

[boreal torrent]

its never a critique to the kernel

its insane

[keen kernel]

macos is really good for end users actually

[open pasture]

this is true

[lapis lava]

so true

[crude fern]

stop trying to do some weird ass arch shit

[junior ridge]

maybe win2000

[keen kernel]

just not half power users like me

[crude fern]

just use fucking fedora

[keen kernel]

im a half power user

[open pasture]

i always shill apple products to people

[flat kelp]

||also, you cant tell about how to install vpn or how it exactly works and will go to jail for that (spreading information about meansures for legal restrictions circumvention)

nobody cares, through||

[lapis lava]

same

[keen kernel]

where sometimes i wanna run vms or android

[sturdy folio]

wdym

[open pasture]

they're just better

[keen kernel]

but i dont wanna run linux

[crude fern]

im not even a power user

[keen kernel]

where i am FORCED to be a full time power user

[sturdy folio]

is there any distro that can natively run windows apps?

[open pasture]

same with proprietary software

[crude fern]

im actually dumb

[junior ridge]

i want to run linux but theres just stuff preventing me from doing it

[crude fern]

i can barely figure out shit

[boreal torrent]

ppl say linux sucks but theyre actually complaining about specific distros

[keen kernel]

wine

[junior ridge]

plus i like how my system just works with windows

[keen kernel]

wine is not an emulator

[sturdy folio]

;AKLNS MFDLOKAJSDNGIOPJASWDNGIPANÜS

LNMAFAIO

[keen kernel]

dont you know

[sturdy folio]

LMFAO

[boreal torrent]

not many issues are shared across linux as a whole

[quasi ravine]

i ran mac on my windows laptop because linux wouldnt cut it

[crude fern]

and linux is still better than windows

[quasi ravine]

so understandable

[junior ridge]

i had to fuck shit up a lot on linux 😭

[sturdy scaffold]

i am not going to run linux on my mac

[jolly temple]

clspotify, downonspot, zotify worked fro me with reading biased news sources also apple

[open pasture]

i don't want to run Linux and you shouldn't either when there's so many proprietary alternatives

[crude fern]

more stable if you arent retarded

again

[open pasture]

Why settle for worse

[sturdy folio]

wine try not to have a billion errors challenge (level impossible)

[keen kernel]

true

[crude fern]

lutiris

or proton

or

[keen kernel]

i just use windows bc it WORKS

[crude fern]

bottles

ore

[open pasture]

stop thinking about what proprietary software can do for you and start thinking about what you can do for proprietary software

[crude fern]

just using a vm

[junior ridge]

REAL

[keen kernel]

windows doesnt need complex ooOOO use PROTON OHHH WHY DIDNT YOU SAY SO moments

[boreal torrent]

all of the options u listed

[junior ridge]

now have her send it to my house

[keen kernel]

windows is Simple and Works

[boreal torrent]

are based on wine

[crude fern]

yes

[open pasture]

this is true

[boreal torrent]

windows doesnt "just work" on my machine :3

[crude fern]

and they all work better

[open pasture]

use windows

[fallow pawn]

@fallow drum

[keen kernel]

thats why i daily drive windows

[open pasture]

or use MacOS

[crude fern]

same

[junior ridge]

meow

[keen kernel]

because it fucking works where linux might have some stupid bug e.g. wayland and nvidia

[fallow drum]

windows does not just work as is evident with their recent release of broken updates and putting ads in EVERYTHING

[sturdy folio]

"stop using windows linux is better" they said "you just have to install 5 different apps for compatibility reasons and hope they dont error out of their ass" they said

[keen kernel]

windows? perfect support

[sturdy scaffold]

another apple event hm
probarly for the iphone 16

[junior ridge]

does for me honestly

[keen kernel]

linux? questionable support

[junior ridge]

ive never had any issues tbh

ok

[fallow pawn]

well isnt it obvious

[fallow drum]

i am getting the iphone 16 right upon release

[keen kernel]

macos? only on apple hardware is it approved

[open pasture]

i daily drive windows inside of parallels desktop on MacOS

[boreal torrent]

windows tend to break often on my machine just by updating the system

[junior ridge]

that is a fat up LIE

[fallow pawn]

any September event is gonna be an iphone

[sturdy scaffold]

yea

[fallow drum]

iPhone 16 Pro Max

[junior ridge]

but ive had sooo few issues compared to linux

[sturdy folio]

what errors did you have with windows

[crude fern]

i love installing 800 different things to deal with how bad windows audio system is

[boreal torrent]

(not as broke as trash ass arch linux tho)

[crude fern]

like literally

[keen kernel]

finally

[open pasture]

buy apple

[keen kernel]

someone actually tells the truth

[open pasture]

they make better hardware anyway

[junior ridge]

like dont get me wrong

i like linux

[keen kernel]

windows is unironically so much better as an end user

[junior ridge]

i use linux on 7/8 of my servers

[crude fern]

ppl say windows sound sytem is sooo much better than linux

[boreal torrent]

dll errors, system not booting

[crude fern]

when on linux

[open pasture]

Windows is unironically better in every way

[junior ridge]

and 6/7 of those servers run VMs that are also running linux

[open pasture]

same for MacOS

[crude fern]

i have more sound controll options

[jolly temple]

[keen kernel]

for a server? use linux, youre supposed to configure a server anyways

[fallow drum]

windows is what you get when you hire people based solely off of their random masters degree their parents bought for them

[crude fern]

where my jack windows????

[junior ridge]

???

[keen kernel]

again, power user

[fallow drum]

linux is what you get when you have hobbyists and people who actually care

[open pasture]

want a server? It's called windows server and you should use it

[junior ridge]

😭

[keen kernel]

nah probably slow

[junior ridge]

i only use windows server for AD

[crude fern]

for someone who is a music and udio nerd, no.

[sturdy folio]

you have more bugs caused by having to install fucking 2 different audio servers that both have questionable support with most apps while it randomly breaks or shuts down sometimes

[junior ridge]

thats it

[open pasture]

Linux is what you get when you have masochists

[junior ridge]

server stuff is almost def better for linux

i hate to say

[boreal torrent]

openbsd

freebsd

:3

[crude fern]

???"??what are you yapping about

[sturdy folio]

windows audio server try not to break and having to restart challenge (impossible)

[junior ridge]

yeah but then you have software/hardware support issues

[flat kelp]

windows server is hot garbage for everything that is not windows specific (like active directory)

[crude fern]

ah yes

[boreal torrent]

hardware issues on a server?

[junior ridge]

with linux, almost any piece of hardware has had a driver written for it by SOMEONE

[crude fern]

all the audio failures ive had on linux

(0
)

[keen kernel]

um vb cable works for me??

[junior ridge]

HAHAHAHAHAHA

[boreal torrent]

also

[crude fern]

0

[open pasture]

bsd is like linux but worse and Linux is windows but worse and windows is macos but worse

[sturdy folio]

linux doesnt even support my headset how do you expect me to use said sound options when i cant have sound

[crude fern]

just 0

[junior ridge]

you clearly do NOT know

the pain and struggles of managing a server

[boreal torrent]

software issues is gonna be devs fault

[open pasture]

in conclusion buy a MacBook

[crude fern]

what headset do you have

[keen kernel]

ive had an unimaginable number of audio failures on linux

wrong output devices and shit

[boreal torrent]

unless u got some

[junior ridge]

i do.

[boreal torrent]

exotic system

[keen kernel]

having to choose pro audio or whatever the fuck

like i dont care just make it work

[flat kelp]

and install linux on it

[keen kernel]

and windows makes it work

[open pasture]

pro audio infamous linux audio server

[flat kelp]

oasis?

[crude fern]

i mean what is it using besides a normal 3.5mm jack

[boreal torrent]

i dont know ud get hardware issues

[sturdy folio]

a steelseries one, i had to install weird patches or whatever to get it to work after an hour or two while on windows it was p&p

[open pasture]

use parallels desktop to run windows on a MacBook

[keen kernel]

average linux experience

[crude fern]

steelseires makes shit

shit audio

[flat kelp]

🤮

[open pasture]

i wouldn't wish linux upon my worst enemies when windows is just better

[junior ridge]

linux on modern macs sucks

like

imo

[open pasture]

why settle for worse

[keen kernel]

bro u cant just blame the product so you can keep saying linux better

[crude fern]

trash it and buy yourself some dt700s

[junior ridge]

what about hd560s

:3

[keen kernel]

i got a steelseries mouse from goodwill for $2

[flat kelp]

just imagine no speakers

[crude fern]

no im being serious

[keen kernel]

$2

[junior ridge]

😭

[keen kernel]

it has rgb

[boreal torrent]

why do ppl tend to blame Linux kernel and OS devs due to unrelated companies writing bad software with terrible support for anything else

[keen kernel]

$2 mouse with rgb and macros

[boreal torrent]

idfg this mentality

[junior ridge]

i have speakers when i boot linux on mine

[crude fern]

thats a i spent my money on something shity

[junior ridge]

idk about other devices tho

[jolly temple]

apple's like mobile or eye contact... epic games were talking about getting used to connect server where sometimes i avoid noticeable flickering or the driving leds have this @fallow drum? i want

[junior ridge]

TRUE

[keen kernel]

i bet linux wont do the macros out of the box

[crude fern]

SS quality so bad

[junior ridge]

what is kevin yapping about

[sturdy folio]

because its still an issue with compatibility which makes the linux user experience worse

[fallow drum]

breaks often, it is full of ads, they are removing stuff left and right (control panel as an example), they are showing that they care more about ai and less about privacy (copilot standard very soon), they refuse to let you change your default browser (to change, you have to actually go into settings and change every single file extension that opens in edge individually, and soon they will actually be making it close to impossible to change. windows server is not as stable as linux servers and offers less solutions to a lot of things and costs a ton of money... linux, such as debian, will never release an update that breaks the system and will allow you to easily download anything you want and do anything you want with it. very rarely will linux break anything, and is actually better suited for a user that is not as tech savvy. these are actual facts and windows is only doing what is best for their investors and not what is best for their users. give it a few more months and you will understand why this is the case ^^

[crude fern]

ive used several of their things

[open pasture]

steelseries is known for their audiophile headphones why should i settle for something that's less than best in class to use linux (an inferior operating system)

[keen kernel]

like it wont run the fucking macro software i bet

if that happens just switch to macos smh

[crude fern]

get some real headphones

[keen kernel]

"very rarely will linux break anything"

[flat kelp]

and thats the apple fault, everything is reverse engineered like in nouveau development

[junior ridge]

is its fucking location..... cunts......

[crude fern]

hurts me when ppl buy gamer headphones

[open pasture]

it took 15 minutes

[boreal torrent]

It's not an issue with compatibility. Linux does it fine tbh, you should be blaming the companies behind the products instead

[rare trout]

She went and did it

[fallow drum]

steamos is what you get when you try to combine windows and linux lol
