[jovial coral]

Dunno never used it on mobile

[young hill]

I see now why api was no updated though

Android lollipop would be dead and anything after until queen cake

I doubt this will be fixed

Unless they want to disable support for a ton of Android devices

Since I think most of them by now are on android pie

Anywho thanks anyways guys

Maybe if they ever change their mind I can hook my phone up to a monitor and a two he

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[hot spire]

just make a legacy app

[young hill]

That would work too

To be honest I do not know why I am so stuck on the official client either

Bruh glaxes

[rancid hearth]

I mean you're free to use osu droid

that's probably the most popular mobile osu client for actual play

[young hill]

Your song is too fast at normal difficulty

[young hill]

Oh another client

Opsu seems to actually work fine

Despite look butt ugly or basic looking

[rancid hearth]

if you think opsu looks bad look at osu droid

that's actually where the most competitive players are

[young hill]

[rancid hearth]

https://youtu.be/x9_0JWgw-3A

[rancid hearth]

it has multitouch unlike opsu

[young hill]

That screen looking like an MMO lobby

[jovial coral]

Not too different from stable

[young hill]

I see what multitouch is useful for though

[rancid hearth]

I mean you're not wrong, without any skin stable looks very similar

[golden wedge]

how well is the keyboard for music games

I play mostly DJMAX V on steam

and the hardest part for me is the endurance for double stacked notes

usually notes that hit 1 4 1 3 1 2 or 4 2 and 4 3

[young hill]

Wopting does have a midi application

[fading spade]

https://youtu.be/UdqrFa6pWLA

ah yes, 15 billion dollars well spent

[young hill]

Lol the back of the screen

I am gonna be honest mkbhd made a video of what it should be

Like scans of peoples heads and a bit of torso

That gets articulated by the facial tracking in the headset

[fading spade]

why tf are the bottom half of the avatars not shown for most of the game?

when you are in a player world, no legs, just upper body

[barren pewter]

honestly
markass brownlee's vid was pretty informative

sums up the "metaverse" crap in a pretty simple, digestible format

[fading spade]

its so creepy

without the lower half of the body

[barren pewter]

"no racial, homophobic or other derogatory jokes"

the fuck man

[fading spade]

thats the default text xd

[mossy dock]

Im a critical but positive person in general. Like to see everyone achieve what they set out to and would rather a good outcome over failure... apart from for facebook
I'm so happy mark is destroying his company with this meta trash 😁

[fading spade]

me too, I want facebook dead

and for them to no longer own Oculus so I can actually buy one of those headsets

[mossy dock]

This is the reason I've taken zero interest in VR. Oculus is a great headset, but no way am I ever owning one while facebook owns it

[fading spade]

^

and I cant afford an Index

[mossy dock]

Same lol

[fading spade]

and my room is too small for a dedicated setup that needs those things on thr walls and shit

[barren pewter]

I mean...tbh
I'm just waiting for deckard

I want a vr headset and I can afford one
I just don't want to help meta on their quest to ruin the internet

[unique bane]

I'll buy a metaquest 3

[feral ferry]

So, hold on a minute

Metaverse is VRchat, but worse

Why would anyone use metaverse if VRchat exists

[trim rock]

Sounds about right

[fading spade]

far far far worse

very VERY FAR worse

[fading spade]

EXACTLY!

[feral ferry]

Okay but maybe

just maybe

Metaverse is not infested with horny people and furries

Like VRchat is, it's damn cringe

[orchid prism]

https://tenor.com/view/yet-nolan-sykes-donut-media-not-yet-working-on-it-trying-it-gif-21597661

[fading spade]

Yeah, that is true
Its free from those

mostly cause there is only like 50 players at any one time

[fringe salmon]

you know there are more vr options than just index and meta?

if the index is too expensive get a pico

[feral ferry]

Don't

[fringe salmon]

or a reverb

[feral ferry]

Get a Reverb G2

Well priced

And really good lens on that thing

[pastel jackal]

ye caus those people are on VR chat lol

[fringe salmon]

yeah but reverb is still like 200 more than pico4 so its not the same thing

[fading spade]

Reverb? is that the brand name or the headset name?

[feral ferry]

Headset brand, I guess

[jovial coral]

hp reverb

[feral ferry]

HP is the maker

[fading spade]

oh, fuck that, Aint buying anything else from HP

[feral ferry]

Reverb is the brand, G2 is the latest, really damn good model

[feral ferry]

Your own fault

They cooperated with I think Valve while making it

[fringe salmon]

its a vr hmd not a printer...

[fading spade]

how is my monitor getting 2 dead pixels in less than a year, my fault?

or all HP laptops coming with shit tons of uninstallable bloat

[fringe salmon]

fyi hp does not make monitor panels, so the dead pixels have about nothing to do with hp either

[feral ferry]

Oh shit HP Reverb G2 V2 is out

That's cool

Much needed improvements on tracking with the new version

[trim rock]

What they also can't count to 3?

[jovial coral]

eh I mean hp could be buying low quality panels but at that point you didn't do your due diligence researching the product you bought

[fringe salmon]

also keep in mind if it was not facebook that bought meta, a quest 2 would also be like idk, 200$ more expensive at the least

[jovial coral]

tru

[feral ferry]

The G2 is pretty damn phenomenal though

[jovial coral]

too expensive for what it is

[feral ferry]

I wish I didn't have ocular issues, or else I would be able to use VR

[feral ferry]

$494.00

For the goggles and controllers

That's.. really good

[jovial coral]

new and which version?

[feral ferry]

https://www.amazon.com/HP-Virtual-Reality-Headset-Version/dp/B09Z6L3SWM

[fringe salmon]

pico 4 is cheaper

[jovial coral]

ain't no one from eu importing this shit from the us

[fringe salmon]

g2 starts at 590€

[feral ferry]

Isn't that chinesium

I can't say I trust chinesium

[fringe salmon]

version 2 at 650

[jovial coral]

hmmmm quite a bit better than it used to be still can't say I would buy it

[barren pewter]

ain't no one from outside the US importing lol
it's an additional hundred USD to ship to me in Kanuckistan

[fringe salmon]

pico 4 is 430€

[barren pewter]

just gotta hope best buy gets it here

[jovial coral]

did they improve their tracking at least?

on the g2

pico 4 sounds interesting

[feral ferry]

Clearly if they released a new version of their goggles just to address that issue

Man I wish my eyesight was worse

[fringe salmon]

on low budget quest 3 might be able to compete with it next year but only if subsidized, on higer budget I'd say wait for deckard or try a pimax

[feral ferry]

My eyesight is good to the point I don't need to go to any ophthalmologists

[jovial coral]

well they released the pro and it was still shit the last time I checked on vr hardware

[feral ferry]

But bad enough that VR is literally unusable

[jovial coral]

what I have terrible eyesight and vr even on my vive is still a great experience

[fringe salmon]

also something to keep in mind as well, meta is losing money in oculus, if they would not own oculus, a lot less R&D money would be pumped into VR space

including stuff like lenses or manufacturing that other companies also use

[jovial coral]

yeah really a shame facebook is such an ass company

but at that size I guess you have to be

[feral ferry]

Meta's down bad though

Financially they are kinda fucked from what I saw

[mossy dock]

I wouldn't even take an oculus for free! Lol

[jovial coral]

let's see what happens I def believe in vr as a whole

[feral ferry]

VR's amazing

[mossy dock]

Even if you paid me to I'd still never ever touch it

[barren pewter]

I would
if I could jailbreak it

[mossy dock]

Hmm jailbreaking one 🤔 now that's a different story

[barren pewter]

and...honestly if someone gave me a quest for free, I'd just flip it and put the money towards a VR headset I'd actually use

[rancid hearth]

there's nothing wrong with the oculus hardware wise it's just meta that's the issue

[jovial coral]

hot take: I'd use a quest

[mossy dock]

Icukus headset are amazing .. but yes facebook

[fringe salmon]

get an oculus go or what it's called, they made it end of life and they made it open so you can use it like semi-official jailbreak

https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2021/10/john-carmack-pushes-out-unlocked-os-for-defunct-oculus-go-headset/

[jovial coral]

same for the rift s please

[fringe salmon]

I mean rift and rift s are not defunct yet really, you can still use them just fine

[jovial coral]

rift s software is pure ass

[fringe salmon]

my rift still works aside from sound gone on one side so I just a headset on top

[unique bane]

I love facebook and Meta

it's the future

[fringe salmon]

found the guy who bought meta shares right before the drop and is now in pain

[unique bane]

No I bought after the drop 😄

still gonna quest 3 tho

[fringe salmon]

not going for high end?

[unique bane]

Naw, I need 2 for both me and my gf

so we can duel with swords

[fringe salmon]

fair probably a good choice then if they can release on time

[rancid hearth]

pinemax

or pimax whatever it's called

[fringe salmon]

ehhh I want to like pimax

but like, just too many issues

[unique bane]

tbh I know jack shit about VR, so will see next year ;D

[fringe salmon]

oh right, the pimax event is tomorrow

yeah waiting for next year is a good call, so much stuff out that can be tested instead of having to speculate lol

[jovial coral]

maybe next year I'll have money for another vr headset again

[unique bane]

Time to sell some stuff Ig

[jovial coral]

I don't like selling things I'm afraid of ppl who will scam u on sites like ebay

[rancid hearth]

I need to stop buying figurines, ffs why do all my hobbies have to be expensive

audio
keyboards
figurines
knives

[fringe salmon]

hey at least yen is also getting weaker compared to the usd so figurines get cheaper for you

[unique bane]

make em urself. Atleast knives and figurines.

[rancid hearth]

figurines are very difficult to diy, knives require equipment which I don't have

[jovial coral]

my hobby currently is feeding myself and that too is getting expensive

[rancid hearth]

I wish I had a workshop that'd be so nice

[unique bane]

I'm looking for a hobby to spend monies

also tryna sell shit I dont need

[rancid hearth]

kb people complaining their kb they ordered is coming next year, me preordering figurines that are going to ship in December 2023

[nimble current]

I only buy practical stuff

[rancid hearth]

figurines are an investment

🧠

[jovial coral]

are they? I literally know nothing about that

[rancid hearth]

they technically can rise in value since they are sold in limited amounts usually

[jovial coral]

first reply I see thorin already cringing throughout my whole body

[fringe salmon]

just like old pokemon cards are way too expensive now lmfao

[jovial coral]

do they

[feral ferry]

Thorin

I hope he dies off one day

A walking disgrace

Wasn't thorin part of some sexual assault allegations?

The lad's washed

[rancid hearth]

I say technically but they're not a real profitable way to invest imo, I just use that as justification as a joke

[jovial coral]

no clue I try to avoid him as much as I can

[fringe salmon]

the world if thorin and richard lewis could be halfway decent humans

[feral ferry]

I'd much rather have Lewis than Thorin in this world

But we are better off with neither

[jovial coral]

wait rl is also a dirtbag I didn't know that but I also admittedly don't know much about the guy

[feral ferry]

Lewis has done some interesting work over the years

[fringe salmon]

he is a massive cunt but also does do some work that helped people/situations so not as bad as thorin

[feral ferry]

It's just really funny how everyone loves Sadokist

Yet, you know

Drops an N bomb live on stream

[fringe salmon]

idk who that is but almost all people who do that are still more charismatic or appear to be better humans outside of such a moment than thorin lmfao

[feral ferry]

Sadokist's a caster

A top end caster at that

You know the hypebeasts that have a cool voice

[fringe salmon]

yeah I watch majors but dont pay attention to the talent really

[feral ferry]

There was another n word scandal fairly recently from another major caster

Man it's almost like being affiliated to CS:GO makes you racist

What queueing with russians does to a person

[fading spade]

another few jumps IDK how tf to do

[bleak pike]

@fading spade the leaves on the left?

[fading spade]

I tried

A lot

Nope

[bleak pike]

@fading spade holding shift?

[fading spade]

Hmmm...

I ran out of time sooo xd

[feral ferry]

@barren pewter https://twitter.com/insider_wtf/status/1587026283447320577

Ain't you horny and jizzing all around for this game

I don't see what makes it that good

[barren pewter]

nice

so much for "release Q4 2022"

like ffs did mobilisation hurt them that much?

[feral ferry]

They russian?

Or ukrainian

The devs

If Ukrainian, yes, they got hurt really badly

[barren pewter]

ruski

[feral ferry]

If russian, fuck knows they are prolly emigrating to UAE as we speak

[barren pewter]

honestly, idk
I'll wait and see

I hope it's good

it's been on my radar for YEARS

[golden wedge]

Not for DAW for music based games

[feral ferry]

https://youtube.com/watch?v=f8piCZz0p-Y

Damn Kliks is fanscinating on this one

@fringe salmon since you work on game dev, how hard would it be to detach control sampling from framerate sampling?

So let's say, sample at 240hz(FPS) with framerate target being.. 90FPS?

[fringe salmon]

idk need to watch that first

[feral ferry]

Take your time, a take from a dev would be interesting

[fringe salmon]

most likely will say no clue, I dont snort enough cocaine to be able to do render pipeline at that level

[fading spade]

ah yes, mounse

[golden wedge]

INVERT

the mounse

mouse 🐁

[tough jay]

It turns it into a rat

[golden wedge]

you mean a snitch

it sells your data.

[young hill]

Nevermind

[fringe salmon]

so basically do what the demo game did? idk, depends on how its done so far, diabotical does it already iirc

[feral ferry]

It seems really effective

I wonder why it's not more widespread

[tough jay]

I would guess it complicates coding / is not supported in the major game engines

[fringe salmon]

it's not something you want in current ways for competitive games like csgo and as seen in the examples its not like you can just select it and the game then works normal, you need to touch render pipeline etc.

[tough jay]

The real fundamental question is if it gives you a superior experience, why not develop game engines that way?
Are there any real difficulties in handling input asynchronously, or is it just that the task of redesigning an existing game engine is too much effort and new in-house engines are rare.

[fringe salmon]

well idk if it would matter if the input tickrate would fluctuate since that could happen since the example game was just an empty scene, there isn't much going on there

[feral ferry]

Based on the fact quintosh is unsure we must be on some uncharted territories

[fringe salmon]

nah just because I work with unity doesn't mean I instantly know how super low level stuff works

like that stuff isn't even exposed in unity unless you write your own input thing

also as he showed in the video, if you do not do anything that adjusts the rendering part, you get black bars when you move the mouse because you essentially move the image while a new one is not done yet

gl explaining to your publisher why thats a good thing to have lol

[golden wedge]

@young hill I only asked how is it on music based game

games*

cause you clearly showed an rhythm game screenshot

and I wanted to know how well is it compared to other keyboards

like the ducky one two

I know one of the players on djmax respect Aubry is one of the top ranking players

[sudden prawn]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/yip3wq/mei_disabled_until_november_15/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

[golden wedge]

why is it overwatch

and not overwatch 2

oh wait

CAUSE ITS JUST OVERWATCH 1.

[nimble current]

"we're gonna encrypt the character files so community can't make porn of them" like bruh its 90% the same characters as the first game

[golden wedge]

Encrypt

Bro

So you're saying we cant draw

the same Body type brest size

hight and weight of a character by hand

BRUH these kids funny

[fringe salmon]

oh its not about drawing

it was just to make it so people cant just directly take the 3d models and put it into blender porn animations

[golden wedge]

that too

but still its easy to make

😫

games been out how long

and how many people have modals?

[fringe salmon]

wouldn't call it easy

[golden wedge]

people already got the modals

?

[fringe salmon]

well yeah now after it got decrypted

they dont use the same models as in OW1

they all got some reskins and remodeling

[golden wedge]

ah

[rancid hearth]

modeling takes a lot of time and skill to get right, especially when it comes to non inanimate objects

[golden wedge]

True it does it does

How many people modaled overwatch since it came out

out of the billons on earth

its not rocket science

shits dumb

[fringe salmon]

that doesnt change the fact a new model means its not the same anymore

[golden wedge]

mew models I can agree with

new

[sudden prawn]

Also all three of the new heroes are females

[golden wedge]

so

I want males

I dont care about the genders

But i agree

removing access to steal new modals

sucks

but what can you do

its not your game

they can do whatever they want

They made it and spent money

not like artist are paying a commision fee to use their modals

models*

[nimble current]

the game caters to thirsty teenage bois after all

[golden wedge]

meanwhile

[sudden prawn]

Each of them definitely targets a fetish

[golden wedge]

all the new games are bad

but mw2 idk

[rancid hearth]

well yes ofc

[golden wedge]

ow2 is just ow1

[sudden prawn]

[golden wedge]

apex legends got new season but still bad skins

and audio not fixed

[sudden prawn]

Soujurn thighs are comically thick

[golden wedge]

gundam evolution is dying.

as said by the gunsam community

and tournament hoster that also with X ray

so yeah

lets look at these other games

like deathverse

very nice game

[nimble current]

games kinda suck these days ngl

[rancid hearth]

yea

I also have never enjoyed playing competitive shooters to begin with, it's just a ground for toxicity to spread

[golden wedge]

anything competitive is bound to be toxic

like sports as well

its competitive

[rancid hearth]

not necessarily

[golden wedge]

Unless your talking about pubs

Yes

bro

there's been fights

In the NFL

NBA

and hockey and baseball

[sudden prawn]

Tf2 released today would probably not do as well

[golden wedge]

its toxic eitherway

[nimble current]

I stopped playing pvp/competitive a couple years ago now

[sudden prawn]

[golden wedge]

TF2 or TG3

TF3

[nimble current]

all the tryharding and toxicity kinda gets old

[rancid hearth]

Many small sports hold a minimum amount of respect for the other team/person

[sudden prawn]

I still sweat on apex occasionally

[golden wedge]

so you don't tryhard to make money

or make a living

you just do normal

tryharding isnt bad

its just people trying to play good and improve

People out there get mad respect cause of their skills

my friend got gifted more then 50 subs

[nimble current]

to the point of forgetting to actually have fun playing a game

[golden wedge]

cause he was so good in the ALGS

thats money

[rancid hearth]

you're bound to find a toxic kid no matter the situation, the only way to avoid it is by queuing with people you know

[golden wedge]

you still get toxic teammates irl

in sports

that just have a short temper

[sudden prawn]

Yeah 5 man overwatch is fun until the matchmaker fucks with you

[golden wedge]

sometimes your co worker could do some dumb shit

that ends up viral on the internet

toxic is basically everywhere

it cannot never get old

[nimble current]

yup, that's kinda why am tired of competitive anything lol

[golden wedge]

even phones

[nimble current]

like I've played in various clans since the 90s

[golden wedge]

iphone is removing sim cards

you know what every brand does

removes sim card

[fringe salmon]

good, esim is long overdue

[nimble current]

first game I joined a clan in ever was quake 1

[rancid hearth]

should still be a optional feature

[golden wedge]

^

[fringe salmon]

nah then it wont put pressure on ISPs to make the system better

[sudden prawn]

Quake is fun, shame arena shooter is a dead genre

[nimble current]

quake 3 was kind of the peak of my pvp fps enjoyment

and its mods

[rancid hearth]

I doubt anything besides the government or mass boycotting will make isps better

isps have a monopoly for the most part

[fringe salmon]

well, they want money, if they dont have esims working apple users wont have contract with them

rare case of apple doing something good by swinign around their control of a big ecosystem

more of a sideeffect of them wanting to get rid of it, but I see that as a long overdue change

[rancid hearth]

still would be nicer to remove it and add a micro sd card where it was

but y'know anti consumer is the usual

[fringe salmon]

yeah that would be nice

[sudden prawn]

Only cheap phones have them now

[rancid hearth]

they would lose money from the larger storage skus

[sudden prawn]

And some mid ranger

[fringe salmon]

and the eu model still has a sim slot since eu isps are even worse than NA somehow in some regions

but I hope this is giving enough of a wakeup call that next year they all work with esim too

[sudden prawn]

Man wish everyone had south Korea internet

[rancid hearth]

^

[bleak pike]

For me I can't see any use for a microsd in my phone

[fringe salmon]

expanded storage?

[bleak pike]

64gb is more than enough for me, 128gb 👌

[sudden prawn]

Most people it's just for pictures and videos

And those pile up fast

[bleak pike]

But I also don't buy stupidly expensive phones and prefer using a camera.

[rancid hearth]

for me it's almost a necessity, since I use my phone for local music, tons of lossless flac takes space

[bleak pike]

Oh I know, Bexin complains all the time.

[sudden prawn]

I've given up on local music and just stream now

[bleak pike]

Eh I don't get it now will I ever.

[bleak pike]

Same

[rancid hearth]

I prefer local music, I daily drive iems, yes I can tell a difference

local music won't ever have dropouts because of connection issues

[bleak pike]

So can I but I don't care enough since I don't listen to music a shit ton on the go.

[fringe salmon]

local music just means you can listen to it even if connection is bad or so, dont even care about the quality

[sudden prawn]

Usually don't to music on the go other than my car

Most listening at home

[bleak pike]

Spotify downloads innit

I used that lossless steaming service for a few months

[sudden prawn]

Is spotify a still on oob?

[rancid hearth]

also poweramp is just a insanely nice player app

[sudden prawn]

Ogg*

[rancid hearth]

yes

[bleak pike]

Honestly for on the go I simply don't care, music is just filter to me in most cases.

When I'm out.

[rancid hearth]

320kbps ogg is what Spotify uses on high

[sudden prawn]

It's not bad

[rancid hearth]

I listen to music while I work

or read

or just anytime I'm not talking to someone

[sudden prawn]

Too many damn meetings for music

[fringe salmon]

imagine not drowning out meeting with music

[bleak pike]

320kbps is perfectly fine when it's correct.

Flac on the go to me is pointless, especially the power consumption.

If you're using the right tech to even hear flac

And are using power hungry headphones

[rancid hearth]

iems are quite efficient

[bleak pike]

Well, regardless, I get it but I also don't, I used to do it but I never really listened to music to really jam, it was just filter for me when walking around or in the city XD

Probably wasn't the best choice using mx50s either

If you wanna listen to flac correctly on the go get one of those devices that are an amp/dac/android

[sudden prawn]

Need a really now noise floor for iems

[bleak pike]

Rather than use your phone, please tell me you don't use the default port.

And not a cheap ass dongle.

@rancid hearth

[sudden prawn]

You mean a dap?

[rancid hearth]

I use a apple dongle US version

[bleak pike]

Good

[sudden prawn]

Apple dongle + any $100 standard amp is a nice ghetto setup

Obviously you lose headroom on power

But most peeps shouldn't be maxing out anyway

[bleak pike]

Tis a must for your phone.

Sadly my phone is USB Type C 2.0

[nimble current]

flac is kinda pointless period to me, I really can't tell the difference between that or 320kbps even on my home equipment

I still record shit in wav though

[rancid hearth]

it's more to me like you're maxing out what the device can output
if you have the ability to max out the quality why limit it

it's like having a 4k display and only ever doing stuff in 1080p, despite having a pc powerful enough to handle 4k no issues

you could also compare it to a wooting kb, squeezing that last bit of performance'

people still buy wooting kbs whether they can tell the latency difference or not

if you have the option to, why not

[young hill]

Just get some usb c earbuds with a dac

[bleak pike]

Or I could get a new phone

[sudden prawn]

Lg come back your quad dac

And just use stockish android

[rancid hearth]

yes

[feral ferry]

There is no difference between 320kbps and 192kbps

It's all elitism bullshit

[rancid hearth]

https://www.npr.org/sections/therecord/2015/06/02/411473508/how-well-can-you-hear-audio-quality

feel free to test yourself

[feral ferry]

Sadly I think they left for good

Which is sad

[young hill]

Yep I find it weird seeing a headphone jack on my phone lol

[feral ferry]

Cause LG's phones were innovative

[fading spade]

how well does shit like this work on youtube? idk how high quality youtube audio can go?

[feral ferry]

You must be the reason they are including them less and less then

Meh, I just refuse to buy phones without jacks

Thank god sony exists

[feral ferry]

192kbps on Youtube I think

[rancid hearth]

this isn't youtube, it's streaming actual files

[young hill]

Nah bruh

I bought a phone recently with it, but okay sure I do not care about much. I care about front facing stereo speakers much more

[fading spade]

oohh

[sudden prawn]

Don't mp3 usually chop off some higher and lower frequencies? There's definitely people who can hear in those ranges

[rancid hearth]

yes they do

[sudden prawn]

I for one am not

[feral ferry]

I forgot dark horse from katy perry existed

[rancid hearth]

at lower bitrates specifically

[sudden prawn]

Think listening to cymbals will show the most difference

[fading spade]

huh?

[sudden prawn]

The decay

[rancid hearth]

also detail

[young hill]

And asus

[rancid hearth]

cymbals have a insane amount of detail

[feral ferry]

This is pissing me off https://www.npr.org/sections/therecord/2015/06/02/411473508/how-well-can-you-hear-audio-quality

I'm on my K702s, Modi 3+ and Heresy

[sudden prawn]

I've given up because my high frequency hearing is poor even when i was in grade school

[feral ferry]

I can't hear any difference

[rancid hearth]

listen to small differences in detail

that's the way I can tell

[feral ferry]

No difference

The only song from those I have listened to the most if Coldplay's speed of sound

So I can a little bit tell the first one was a bit off

Others I have no clue, no difference

[rancid hearth]

so you can tell

it just has to be something you know

[feral ferry]

I played all three and I could hear no real difference

Just had a extrasensatory tingle that the last one sounded kinda less choppy

In a weird way

But really there's no audio benefit that anyone should worry about with audio bitrates

192kbps is plenty enough

[rancid hearth]

listening to detail in voices, crash cymbals, Lower bitrate will almost sound "smoother"

and higher bitrate will almost have a noise to it

[feral ferry]

I can't hear shit

Which is prolly why I don't go elitist

If it's good, it's good

Raw audio enjoyment is the best

Which is why go be damned with your tws earbuds

[rancid hearth]

I mean if it's good enough for you, then I don't really care

I always suggest people try it at the very least though

[feral ferry]

I listen to music exclusively on youtube anyways

Which for some reason raises eyebrows

"HoW aRe yOu NoT oN SpOtiFy"

[rancid hearth]

All the kids use spotify for whatever reason

[feral ferry]

Spotify sucks anyways, half my songs aren't even on there

Imagine using Tidal though

That shit's got even less of a catalogue

[sudden prawn]

I use YouTube music coz i paid for premium

[rancid hearth]

a part of the reason why I don't stream is because my music selection is very niche

[sudden prawn]

[feral ferry]

Music's good

I like their discovery queue

Found a lot of really cool artists there

[sudden prawn]

I just upload niche stuff to YouTube music

It's nice

[rancid hearth]

Hatsuki yura is a artist that just doesn't have any streaming options, so local is the only option

[feral ferry]

I just can't really be bothered with switching from normal youtube to music.youtube

So I just use the normal youtube anyways

Audio bitrate's the same anyways

[bleak pike]

I'm to busy to pay attention

Lol

When I'm out I mean

[sudden prawn]

Lol jpop, lots of high frequencies

Makes sense for that

Most of my music are a lot more mellow

[rancid hearth]

I also listen to stuff like kevin penkin osts
which are very atmospheric

[bleak pike]

Marsh, that you?

[sudden prawn]

Been listening to Roosevelt a lot

[rancid hearth]

https://kurokotei.bandcamp.com/track/20-years-of-dysphoria-and-a-half-entropy

this song, insanely good

[nimble current]

was more thinking COD could just change it in-game

[barren pewter]

yeah
it wouldn't take too long

a small team a work week at most

[nimble current]

am curious to play the game just for that level

[barren pewter]

idk, CoD is cool and all, but I don't feel like paying for the hottest game of 2017 for 90 FUCKING CAD

[nimble current]

visited amsterdam a long time ago and looking at in-game shots really takes me back

[fading spade]

Lol

[barren pewter]

yeah

RWS

they hit the nail on the head there

[fading spade]

Hmmm?

[barren pewter]

although I'd like a mac port from them

they did have a linux port in the works post-launch

or at least plans to

a mac port is now arguably even easier

[fading spade]

The problem with the steam deck
It even runs Linux native games through Proton

Even though it doesn't need to

[barren pewter]

linux games are few and far between
there's also that...linux is so fucking varied

not every game works with every distro

[fading spade]

Yeah
It is ...
;_;

[barren pewter]

it's a lot less sloppy on valve's end to just shove everything through proton

[fading spade]

Splitgate is such a great game
I wish I didn't suck ass at multiplayer

And it's native Linux

Runs flawlessly 😍💜

[barren pewter]

...Lana

if you want a really good native linux shooter

[fading spade]

Yo?

[barren pewter]

just play metro exodus

[bleak pike]

Also a few Lana native games run worse than they do proton

[barren pewter]

^^

[bleak pike]

cough borderlands cough

[barren pewter]

some ports are just really shit lol

[barren pewter]

BL mac ports as well

yikes lol

[fading spade]

I played metro last light on Linux
It lagged like hell and all the video settings didn't exist in the menu anymore

I hope exodus works

[bleak pike]

At least they look crisp compared to a recent Mac store game

[fading spade]

Yeh....that port was garbage .-.

[barren pewter]

exodus has a linux port
and a mac port
buddy says linux port runs wonderfully
mac port runs flawlessly for me

[bleak pike]

Metro exodus ran amazing for me on the steam deck

[barren pewter]

you

shut

your fucking mouth

[fading spade]

Through Proton
But still good to hear!

[bleak pike]

You can choose to not use proton

[barren pewter]

"you can choose not to use proton 🤓 "

[fading spade]

Yeh
You can

Sadly the controller doesn't work on Distance when not run through Proton;_;

And proton adds too much lag for a game you need to be fast in

I'm far worse at distance on Deck than on my computer

And I use controller on both devices

I don't wanna use GDLauncher

[fading spade]

why not?

[wheat kraken]

last time i used GDLauncher. it had speed issues in terms of downloading and a few other quirks

if they sponsor directly with CF. I'd seriously consider using it over the shitty overwolf thing

[bleak pike]

If it's as great as the curseforge launcher at making packs I'd switch in a heartbeat

experiencing some slight issues

[fading spade]

Rocket League no longer allows multiplayer on Steam Deck ;-;

[fringe salmon]

got a link to that?

[fading spade]

no, but I launched the game today, immediately the news tab on the side opened and said that from now on Mac and Linux can only play offline

few weeks ago my cousin played it on my Deck and it worked fine

so this is new shit :/

[bleak pike]

What game is that

[small comet]

snow runner

as the url says

[fading spade]

Snow Runner

[bleak pike]

Oh ye

[fading spade]

Funny, there is mostly mud and shit in that game rather than snow

[small comet]

it seems like you read news from 2020

https://www.rocketleague.com/news/ending-support-for-mac-and-linux/

quiet literally

[fading spade]

Yeah, I know this happened back then

but it worked fine until this week

[nimble current]

there's quite a lot of snow maps too

[fading spade]

over proton

[small comet]

yes and there is no other news on steam or their website

and i highly doubt theyd have a third update channel just for ingame

[nimble current]

I got a ton of dlc maps

[fading spade]

there is a 19GB update for it on my Steam Deck now... wtf???

19GB rocket league update

[bleak pike]

Basically

Proton broke the anti cheat

[fading spade]

how? it worked fine the last few times i played

[fringe salmon]

did you try to play online after you started it and saw the popup?

[fading spade]

the option was physically gone from the menu

[fringe salmon]

huh, guess maybe proton breaking the anti cheat literally meant it broke it so anti cheat wasnt working so they had to cut it?

[fading spade]

then I decided to change the version of proton over to proton GE and that is what prompted the 19GB update that im currently downloading for the game

so once thats done, ill see what happens

[trim rock]

Sounds like you somehow got the old native port

[fading spade]

yeh

I think maybe

downgraded somehow

[jovial coral]

I can quite literally play online on the sd

[fading spade]

oohh.......... im a moron
I know how it reverted

🤦‍♀️
A while back, I turned off Proton for games that are native

[jovial coral]

Not that I would with the current input lag

[fading spade]

and it must have downgraded rocket league also

[fading spade]

my cousin had no issues with that the last day

but I have issues with it in Distance

;-; so I prefer to play Distance on my PC which runs the native Linux build and its a lot LOT more responsive

[jovial coral]

It uses vsync how can someone not notice vsync

[fading spade]

I turn that off

and use the gamescope limiter

[jovial coral]

U can not on the steamdeck

It has built in vsync

[fading spade]

you can turn that off

[jovial coral]

Nooooo

[fringe salmon]

last patch or so made it you can turn it off

[jovial coral]

Beta patch

I don't mess with beta stuff

[fringe salmon]

ah yeah I just saw it being a thing after way too long

[jovial coral]

You couldn't weeks ago

[fading spade]

true true

[jovial coral]

Also the steamdeck built in frame limiter adds 3 more frames of input lag to the 3 vsync ones too so it's always better to use the ones built into the game

Maybe when valve allows deactivating vsync on stable I'll be able to have a pleasant experience in rocketleague

[fringe salmon]

not having a VRR screen is by far the biggest thing missing on the more expensive models imo

[jovial coral]

I'm guessing either Beyond good and evil 2 or that new assassin's creed game releasing next year

With shitty va

[feral ferry]

Add some superpowers, slap a soviet theme on it and call it a game

Unique

But looks boring though

[barren pewter]

my brain sees a spiritual successor to bioshock

which was just a generic arcade shooter with superpowers and a dystopian theme

Anyone know if there is a way to choose what display Game Mode uses on Steam Deck when docked?

A lot of people say it defaults to HDMI if both the HDMI and DP port or being used but for me, its defaulting to DP for some reason 🤔

and DP goes to my second screen, I dont want that

[rugged axle]

Wooting analog movement works on mwII unlike other cods like the current warzone

It now only locks your aiming device so you can use controller movement

[barren pewter]

so it doesn't work

just like R6S
can't move mouse (aim) and use emulated joystick (move) at the same time

[solemn juniper]

W

[rugged axle]

It locks your input method as mouse

But you can use controller joystick with it I believe

ok that rephrasing makes more sense

Apple silicon
Gaming

Pick one

[barren pewter]

metal 3, M series, rosetta 2

[barren pewter]

both

I was playing some metro exodus on my macbook earlier
ran smooth as silk

[feral ferry]

I am sorry for your poor gaming experience

[fading spade]

oh.... Fortnite already plays on Mac too

ah yes, but they had no issues about cheating there did they .-.

17gb update.... bruh

[barren pewter]

linux is full of hackers smh

you should know this by now

[barren pewter]

it was perfectly fine

[fringe salmon]

because their anti cheat works on mac and making a mac vm is quite a bit more complicated than just slapping ubuntu iso in it

[barren pewter]

wtf are you on about

[barren pewter]

not too much more tbh

[feral ferry]

I am truly again sorry that you have to resort to second grade hardware to play your games

It's a sad and unfortunate fact

Maybe one day you'll have enough money to buy a proper PC

[barren pewter]

I choose to
over my desktop
because that shit ain't portable

[fringe salmon]

what part about apple silicon is second grade?

[feral ferry]

Peasantry

[fringe salmon]

overpriced is something else

[feral ferry]

No, no

Peasantry

[barren pewter]

...Vexx
I get it
you have the luxury of being able to live in your flat forever

and as such, don't need a portable device

I don't have that luxury
so I need a portable device
it's nice to have one that can do some gaming for long trips, yk

[nimble current]

M chips

second grade hardware

[wheat kraken]

actually i kinda want something the opposite of what you're going on about. I'd like an M2 mac mini to come out with multi monitor support so i could use it instead of my desktop when i'm not gaming. I do it so rarely anymore that having something less power hungry i could just hide under the desk and use a KVM switch to swap all my shit between the two.

[barren pewter]

that's actually quite brilliant

[feral ferry]

No, no

I just feel deeply sorry that you had to stoop down so low as to resort to peasantry for your gaming urges

[wheat kraken]

i know i could get like an AMD ryzen 5600u mini PC as well but i kinda like macos for purely media consumption and basic desktop usage.

[feral ferry]

I hope you will come back into the light, my child, and join the masterrace once more

you should encourage him to spend more on apple

the more apple gets the more they spend on tsmc the better chips amd and nvidia can make

[barren pewter]

it's so fucking awesome
a single charge lasts me a full week of lecture notetaking

[wheat kraken]

okay keyboard and trackpad, great screen, good battery, etc.

I just wanted the IO that the M1 air at the time just didn't offer

the M2 air is an improvement, but not as good

[sudden prawn]

another other arm processor come even close to m1/m2 atm?

[barren pewter]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

not that I'm aware of

[sudden prawn]

wish windows had one

a surface laptop that can be a windows alternative to the m1 macbook

[fringe salmon]

they could do the same with an x86 chip

it's not about the architecture its about apple paying enough to be 1-2 nodes ahead of everyone

[barren pewter]

and the costs get, unsurprisingly, thrown onto the consumer
still cheaper than intel macbooks

while being better in...every way

Trying to launch bf3 on deck

The EA app installs
The game launches
But it takes you to the website where you then need to launch the game itself .-.

It's truly sad to see Apple stoop down so low

[fading spade]

Any workaround? I tried and couldn't find shit other than go offline

Like, what were they thinking

They had the superior masterrace Intel CPUs and AMD GPUs

AMD even graciously offered them a brand new, never seen in 10 years dual GPU

And Apple decided to downgrade to their own, lesser quality sand

They even called it Mediocre-1 (M1)

Idk man, Apple just has so much money they decided that they didn't want the better product

for a notebook
an intel furnace was dogshit

the AMD GPUs too underpowered

it was only when their Mac Studio could play catchup on the Mac Pro, they still sold em

[feral ferry]

Are you a hardware engineer?

If not stop commenting on AMD's hardware

It's too complicated to be understood by inferior species like you

AMD produces super high end dual GPUs with so much power that Apple will be a decade behind

Apple has decided they would rather produce inferior products for more money

Which is okay, they really need to fund Tim Cook's islands purchases

Never enough money for the CEO
