and a longshot better than the PS4 controller I used to have

crisp granite
#

Wouldn’t make sense to considering joycon triggers aren’t either

wheat plume
#

Yeah, I know

#

Im pretty sure the Switch cannot handle analog input anyway other than the joysticks

stark bobcat
#

pro controller has by far the highest latency

ashen spindle
#

genoa goes brrrr (but quiet)

cursive summit
#

How many more times is it even efficient

ashen spindle
#

yes

cursive summit
#

4x?

#

Although if my calculations are correct it's 50% efficiency boost

#

A very much sizeable result

ashen spindle
#

holy shit Papermaster firing shots at intel

#

just casually mentions how zen4 will beat intels sapphire rapids, "whenever they release"

cursive summit
#

Ahh no wonder I didn't see Papermaster in Radeon conference

#

He's Ryzen staff

cursive summit
#

Ok

#

Move on with your day

#

Xbox released a 200 euro controller just last month or so

#

60 euro ones are just as good

frozen ingot
#

just companies in the 2020s thinking they can charge hundreds of dollars for literally anything

#

in the midst of hyperinflation let alone

#

just shows how fucking out of this world these CEO figures really are

#

feed my beluga caviar snorting addiction you peasants

ashen spindle
#

someone doesnt know what a controller from scuf already costed 5 years ago lol

#

thats not new prices

#

also you do know inflation still means products cost more? they arent immune to that lol

frozen ingot
#

and they keep making more and more expensive products despite of knowing full well people have less and less to spend on frivolous things

#

aaand they still increase their profit margins on top of increased resource prices, its pretty obvious looking at many markets

ashen spindle
#

not a snapdragon huh

#

thats surprising

cursive summit
#

Mediateks are nowadays just as good as snapdragons

ashen spindle
#

phones are a bit different though

#

dont think they had a XR1 or similar

gusty kiln
#

I wouldn't be surprised if the next update to the g pro superlight is going to be 200 USD

astral haven
ashen spindle
#

yeah razer costs a lot , likely overpriced, just wanted to show that price range is nothing new

astral haven
#

psvr can only be mediakek because its rendering on the ps itself

ashen spindle
#

ya

gusty kiln
#

"Mecha tactile action buttons"

frozen ingot
#

never said the prices were "new" or that nobody has charged these amounts before, but its increasingly becoming a norm for companies to charge more and more for the sake of it

#

with less substance there to motivate that price

astral haven
cursive summit
astral haven
#

you are just only noticing now

stark bobcat
#

controllers have always been a fing ripoff darn things break so damn easily

gusty kiln
#

Oh man, the controller comes with it own android app

astral haven
frozen ingot
#

well no, it wasn't as universally applicable to nearly every tech product category just 5-10 years back

astral haven
#

ah well i cant find a dimensity 9k of the same

astral haven
#

heres gen 1 vs dimensity 9k

#

over 10% faster for the same or lower power is not bad at all

gusty kiln
#

Sadge

ashen spindle
#

why sad

gusty kiln
#

Apple only for now

ashen spindle
#

oh thats fine, I want apple to do what they did with tsmc

astral haven
ashen spindle
#

put ungodly amounts of money it

#

so we get some QNED goodness sooner

cursive summit
#

"That said, it seems like Samsung will try to win over Apple as its first customer for the panels, rather than launching them under its own brand."

#

Do those apple panels even work normally with Windows PCs?

#

They're touch enabled right?

astral haven
#

lmao no

stark bobcat
#

is the reacton time good on these?

astral haven
#

apple hasnt had touch on computer ever

astral haven
gusty kiln
#

Apple won't even put touch main screen on their laptop

stark bobcat
#

I mean what are the characteristics of these panels?

astral haven
astral haven
stark bobcat
#

sounds exciting

frozen ingot
#

people have been bugging apple about making touchscreens for their computers for ages

#

but they refuse because its ergonomically crap

astral haven
frozen ingot
#

because its ergonomically crap

astral haven
#

nope thats irrelevant

stark bobcat
#

nah u can make it work if u want to

#

just an engineering challenge like anything else

gusty kiln
#

They just want you to buy a ipad along with your MacBook mm

astral haven
#

and its perfectly ergonomic, i see plenty of mac users with fingerprints all over their screens 🤣

gusty kiln
#

You can use an ipad like a second monitor right?

Razer released a mouse today with Hall Effect mouse wheel. It uses smart fluid (magnetorheological) for the feel though. More HE-gang.

frozen ingot
#

that's good news because the wheel is what always broke first on my razer mice havo

fickle ore
#

Yeah this one doesn't have an axle to break, so feel free to use force ig

astral haven
#

what broke first on mine was my patience with their software havo

fickle ore
#

Shrug, just saying the wheel is quite unusual

frozen ingot
#

I think my last razer mouse broke in 2016 or something like that and I barely recall using their software at the time

#

my headset insisted I'd install the damn thing though and for some reason I did, haven't touched it since I made my preferred settings in it though

ashen spindle
crimson wigeon
#

Those performance numbers are insane!

fickle ore
#

amd is too much up today, wish I bought at 58$

ashen spindle
#

I mean, could've told you that genoa launch is massive

#

then again stock market sometimes cares fuck all about those things

fickle ore
#

They never seem to

#

I fomoed in at 68,14$ ::D

ashen spindle
#

no espanol por favor

sharp badger
#

Probably on

#

Or depends

astral haven
#

its usually good

ashen spindle
#

unless we are talking about pentium 4 or something that old dogekek

astral haven
#

or bulldozer lel

ashen spindle
#

yes something running at 6000fps is not realistic at all so anything gained from that isn't really relevant for actual use cases

#

also probably still within margin of error at that amount

astral haven
#

it will have problems with borderline stable systems

#

it does in fact increase ram load

#

yes it is

fickle ore
astral haven
#

🤷 so they have a borderline stable system

#

not the fault of the prefetcher

#

if you need to turn off the prefetcher for higher performance, you need to drop your oc

#

lel

#

yea so your error margins are not that tight

ashen spindle
#

that is not how you determine error margins

astral haven
#

yea you obviously havent passed statistics lel

#

you have no way of knowing if it is if you dont know why the error is happening

#

because you havent passed a statistics class

ashen spindle
#

if I get the same result on 3 test cases I don't suddenly have a 0% error margin lol

#

error margin is not the same as deviation of your results

astral haven
#

and you were forcing a mem retrain every time?

#

well there you go

#

that was a trick question because first i know you werent, but second, if you were allowing memory to train, theres a huge error bar right there

ashen spindle
#

deviation of your results is not your error margin

astral haven
#

look gyro, if you were slightly less confident about your previous bs we probably would be a bit more charitable about this

#

yea if you are willing to make mistakes anything is

#

yes because people with actually scientific testing methodologies have proven benefits

ashen spindle
#

I really have no clue what it does aside from guessing based on the name but that doesnt change how statistics work

astral haven
#

even the government has tested it

#

theres plenty of testing running around just spend a second or two looking

#

again you need to lock settings

#

particularly voltage, temperature, and timings

ashen spindle
#

that is not what I said

#

in really short terms, if you have a margin of error of like +-500 in your example, they could all be the same thing on average in your actual usecase

astral haven
#

No they aren't because a significant portion of them are hidden

#

And besides that I doubt you are even telling the truth about that

#

Well no that's not all of them

#

But if you do actually lock them and aren't bsing like you normally are then sure

#

But prove it

#

Where's your test data?

#

Nah just the data

#

Also your rtls are kinda fucked

#

Are you sure you set these?

#

And if you just used what it trained for you then set that, what makes you think your ram is stable?

fickle ore
#

Gyro is usin win7 /thread

astral haven
#

You can't run multiple stress tests at the same time to consider yourself stable unless it's designed for that

fickle ore
astral haven
#

Practically you find as much as you can then add that to your run to run variance

ashen spindle
#

yes that's why he said "theoretically"

#

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margin_of_error has some nice visual displays to show semaple size, confidence level and such

The margin of error is a statistic expressing the amount of random sampling error in the results of a survey. The larger the margin of error, the less confidence one should have that a poll result would reflect the result of a census of the entire population. The margin of error will be positive whenever a population is incompletely sampled and ...

#

though I suspect dag knows this just too well and just wants to harass me

fickle ore
#

=b

#

No

ashen spindle
#

wasn't that part of your dayjob? might've misremembered that then

astral haven
#

I provided

astral haven
fickle ore
#

I'm just wondering. Do you just count your PC performance, give it a x value, add error to it, then slap it on a normal distribution scale? Then use e.g CI = 90%, calculate the critical z-value (given 30+ sample size), multiply that with the standard deviation (but it's a infinite population so maybe Standard error of the mean instead?) then get the true margin of error from that? Or how?

#

Theoretically ofc

ashen spindle
#

personally I'm way too lazy to make super accurate benchmarks for anything

#

I just know that with memory retraining, background tasks and all that running I wouldn't call a frametime difference of what, .1ms or so outside of margin of error that I just made up

astral haven
#

Anyways if you already did your own testing and came to your own conclusion, you are probably better off taking advantage of that to get the full effect of placebo

ashen spindle
#

nobody disagreed with your data just the interpretation and conclusion you made from it

astral haven
#

Because I know that results can easily be manufactured?

#

I can (and have) made tests where the 2080ti gets slaughtered by the r9 nano with otherwise identical hardware

@ashen spindle Btw how big was the perf increase on genoa? I don't have the time to watch 😦

ashen spindle
#

yes

#

lots of yes

fickle ore
#

YES

#

so 100%++

astral haven
#

1.2x to 4x+

ashen spindle

not that most servers ever see idle anyway lol

yea

fickle ore

good to see nontheless

crimson wigeon

Good. I need that for me NAS!

fickle ore

I want an EPYC

astral haven
#

If genoa-x releases before 14th gen and 70003d then it would legit be the fastest for gaming

cursive summit
#

Here you go

astral haven
#

Not would could

ashen spindle
#

that would be mega troll

#

but I doubt it happens

#

surely its easier to ramp up OSATs to package it on the less expensive consumer chips first to get failure rates lower and then start on the server chips?

pale sigil
#

ffs PayPal

#

you cant transfer crypto in the UK

ashen spindle
crimson wigeon

Not even to your own wallet oh wait transfer fees would probably be more than what you're sending pepelaugh

"We aren't allowed to actually talk about sapphire rapids for 2 more months"
But "sapphire rapids CPUs will absolutely not be competing with Genoa on a CPU to CPU basis"

AMD just dropped the core hammer on Intel. With 96 cores the AMD EPYC 9654 gaps Intel by providing more than 2x the core count per socket and enormous performance improvements. In this video, we get into the details of Genoa, and how the EPYC 9004 series fits with Bergamo, Genoa-X, Siena, MI300, and Intel offerings like Intel's 3rd Gen Xeon Scal...

fickle ore
#

It doesn't matter1

#

😄

ashen spindle
#

wonder what the BOM of an HBM version is vs Genoa-x

astral haven
ashen spindle
#

lets see, like 250 for the ccds on a 96 core

#
  • io die + OSAT costs
astral haven
#

And tbf that iodie is not gonna be cheap

ashen spindle
#

well they have 2 different io dies I think, one larger for the big chips

#

but yeah trying to find measurements to estimate it

astral haven
#

Specifically not...

#

They added more iodie links so that each ccd can connect to 2 links for minimum bottleneck on the 4 ccd or lower parts

#

Also 12ccd is just beautiful

ashen spindle
#

it really is

astral haven
#

And they could make a 6ccd substrate in theory too

#

With 2 links per ccd

#

6x 3d ccds with dual links would be an actual monster

#

Oh my goodness I also realized that 3D probably offsets some of the massive socket size issues

#

Imagine that on threadripper

#

Buys threadripper
happens to be faster than msdt part in games

ashen spindle
astral haven
#

Still has 48 cores

ashen spindle
#

ah found the chip sizes so lets see how many we get on a wafer

#

oof that thing is massive

astral haven
#

yes?

ashen spindle
#

so around 75$ for the io die

pale sigil
#

what tf dso i use to send someone crypto

ashen spindle
#

you get their address and send the amount from your wallet

#

so we are at 12 CCDs for 20$, IOD for 75$

#

10$ for zen4 desktop packaging so uhh, idk, 35$? would be 350 for the 96 core then

#

or 400 if packaging is a lot more

pale sigil
#

ye but shit like revault wont let me transfer to someones wallet

ashen spindle
#

idk how you expect that we can tell you how to do it if you do some weird specific thing lol

fickle ore
#

paper wallet

pale sigil
#

cant i just use a wallet like the old days

#

ahhhhh

ashen spindle
#

unfortunately I cant find anything on the cost of HBM2e aside form old numbers when vega used it

astral haven
#

eh its the same as intel pays lel

ashen spindle
#

well idk if it dropped since 2019 and if hbm2 and hbm2e cost the same

astral haven
#

me neither

#

but i highly doubt price dropping

ashen spindle
#

2 years ago it was 7.5$ per gb

#

so lets say they pay 5/gb?

astral haven
#

oh per gb maybe

ashen spindle
#

means they still have like 300$ of hbm on their 64gb hbm cpus already lol

astral haven
#

sure

ashen spindle
#

yeah intel wish tehy could have amds margins lmfao

astral haven
#

ye

#

and that microdie that glues the subchips together probably also has cost implications

fickle ore
#

A bit of wishful thinking included

astral haven
#

yea if you need a cpu that doesnt have ccp fingerprints on it there arent many options

#

tsmc is working on it tho

ashen spindle
#

yeah with the n3 delays the n5 fab might actually be not far behind of leading edge once that goes online in the US lol

pale sigil
#

trying to avoid fucking fees i end up wasting 3 quid anyway

astral haven
#

bitcoin fees are harsh

pale sigil
#

i meant more as soon as i bought it i fucking lost like 2 quid instantly

#

and then found out i need to exchange it back because paypal cant fucking send in the UK

crisp granite
#

as you should for buying shitcoins

pale sigil
#

then i used revoult and the same fucking shit

ashen spindle
#

I still dont get why you'd want to use btc and then something like paypal instead of just directly paying the person to their wallet

pale sigil
#

Because it was 5 euro fee for paypal

#

3 euro vs 8 euro for a service

ashen spindle
#

no I mean pay directly into their crypto wallet and not try to pay the btc via paypal

pale sigil
#

i was trying to buy crypto to send to their wallet

ashen spindle
#

also how did you lose money from having the btc

#

btc went up like 10% today

pale sigil
#

According to PayPal i lost havo

astral haven
#

buying instantly loses you munz

#

cause you pay under market rate and you can only sell for over market rate

I'd be content with full dive vr with the pain lvls in ALO

literally everyone would be?

fickle ore

Ig

but that doesnt actually make it possible?

stark bobcat

I hope full drive vr exists when I'm old so I don't have to feel like an old person

astral haven

medical full dive like they have later in the show would be awesome too

if full drive VR works when im like 80, I hope they have by then allowed euthanization, so I'll go battle some orcs with that on 😄

Have Snapchat said they aren't bringing dark theme to Android?

It's been nearly 2 years since it was added to the iPhone version of the app

snapchat is really an iphone app

true quest

and here i am waiting for this to release

sony elite controllerOctoDab

wheat plume

So yeah :/

empty wren

also i checked around

#

i think on samsung devices there is a way to force it otherwise root so to answer your question unfortunately so

wheat plume
#

Yeah :/ the force dark overwrite dev option doesn't work anymore for me

empty wren
#

facebook already leapfrogged snapchat with instgram anyways, where i think a lot of people ended up migrating to anywyas

wheat plume
#

I love how Snapchat are trying to hide it was meant to be iPhone only
And they also added a few feature specifically for the Pixel 6 phones

empty wren
wheat plume
#

On pixel 6, you can use all of the rear cameras
And you can double tap the back of the phone to open Snapchat

empty wren
#

hmm i do not think the double tap thing is special mine has it and you can open any app

wheat plume
#

So
.... Pixel is the only Android phone that Snapchat can directly access the camera on
-.-

empty wren
#

yeah that sucks gonna be honest

empty wren

all video chat and messaging apps default to a certainc amera

empty wren

which i wish i had sometimes when i play that goes off for seemingly no reason and takes a screenshot

oh also if you are phone is ip certified you can squeeze it with an app for more actions

such a natural way to interact with a phone

Honestly I will probably end up coloring it in at some point

Huh?

empty wren
#

With a theme

wheat plume
#

How

empty wren
#

Substratum

#

Since most people stopped development on it I will probably get back on it December

So many apps even black ones keep grey borders

wheat plume
#

Oh

#

Forgot that existed

empty wren
#

I think most people have

#

Since phones have gotten so good

#

And a lot has matured

wheat plume
#

I used to use it for a while

#

Dark theme on Snapchat xdd

#

Until Snapchat updated the UI to no longer be themeable

#

Everything in the UI is completely hardcoded basically

empty wren

Hardcode?

#

Do you mean obfuscated?

not the EU models

due to EU laws

frozen ingot
#

you'd have to be pretty naive to think china gives a rats ass

#

its been repeatedly proven with chinese products and softwares outside of china

#

there's a reason many countries militaries bans brands like huawei, xiaomi etc from their workplaces

#

or letting them do their infrastructure projects like 4G/5G networks

wheat plume

didnt most ISPs and carriers in America use Huawei hardware for their infrastructure?

#

before the ban

a lot of them probably did yeah

because you know, cheaper

I blame amd but I'll give it a shot

#

like looking at the folder it created

it's fucking empty

like wtf

#

what a fucking pain when I reinstall the shit I'll have to alter all the settings again

#

people make fun of nvidia control panel for how it looks

#

but at least it works

ashen spindle
#

control panel is not what has shadowplay though

stark bobcat
#

ofc not but it's part of their software stack

#

amd software has so many bugs

#

altering color settings for games only sometimes just doesn't go away when I close the game have not payed attention to on which games it happens but even if it's the game not properly shutting down amd should know how to deal with that

#

I've never had to reinstall the driver as often as with this card

#

well with the 270x but that is a long time ago

#

like why can't amd write proper software

#

at least the driver is stable

#

but this is annoying

#

funny story when fallout 4 came out I tried to play it on the 270x with a driver that was a little older. the game straightup didn't work

and those were the days of catalyst drivers

what about it

seems very accurate

pale sigil
#

Security is not a valid reason to ban pople or allow people to run it when it runs a new anti cheat

#

that supports linux

#

"not enough of a player base"

#

its as if the number one reason people run windows on the deck is for d2 didn't exist

ashen spindle
#

idk about any bans, if that is somehow relevant that post has no info about it and lacks the context

#

and how many people are running windows on it vs the rest of the playerbase?

#

also literally clarifies that in the next point,t hat steam deck is different from full linux so it's not even about the playerbase on steam deck

Its just laziness

and they retracted it afterwards

this seemed to come back after they were called out, retracted it and then put it out again?

amd just rebranded trash reflects badly on them tbh

#

they sunk even lower after the bike by jumping on the horrid "gamer chair" bandwagon afterwards too

#

like cmon amd I know you're better than that, or at least I thought so

ashen spindle
#

I mean thats just marketing

#

get the brand name out more

stark bobcat
#

just tells me to nerver get amd merch

#

if they don't give a fck about quality

thick elk
#

Basically, large companies probably do not get to make good merch.
It's either go to a trusted supplier who handles it.
They really would not incentivize one or a couple of people doing hard work researching, testing and maintaining quality.
Bureaucracy will just get in the way on a large organization, and the incentives are low.
Outsourcing it mostly to a larger merch making company is generally the road to take.
Same with gaming chairs which as much as we dislike them are still popular in general.

The bike is just a weird one and shows why large companies cannot do original merch well.

ashen spindle
#

nah the bike was also just a rebrand

thick elk
#

I mean original as in not a lot of people would randomly rebrand a bike

#

not as in specifically made to spec

ashen spindle
#

yeah its not like the bikes but tis still just made by an oem and got an amd sticker

thick elk
#

Of course, and for a larger companies who's core business lays elsewhere that makes the most sense to do.

that was mostly the case because b series didnt release at launch

you can see in hubs most recent videoa bout that that cost/frame is much closer now with b series boards

If only graphics cards had eco mode

Within the realm of them getting a bad silicon lottery

ashen spindle

yeah 100 vs 105 fps with just two samples instead of an average over multiple of the same cpu is really insignificant imo

cursive summit
#

You want them to overwork themselves or what?

ashen spindle
#

how many years do you think they want to spend on 54 game benchmarks?

cursive summit
#

Running 54 games multiple times with different CPUs is fucked

ashen spindle
#

54 games x 3 resolutions x2 platforms is 300 runs already, 150 on each cpu

stark bobcat
#

Also do u expect them to buy like 100 and test them each release

#

That seems arduous

cursive summit
ashen spindle
#

nah that also just has canned benchmarks, so any test that isn't using a built in will break after updates, etc.

#

I see the mark bench thing as a replacement for userbenchmark to compare a lot of less accurate numbers

#

not for reviewers to get accurate results

shadow minnow

Also it will still consume time to run the tests

maybe not do it while the device is powered on though to be on the safe side

also don't power it on until the paint is dry

these days you have these thin floppy ones just made of pressed plastic/metal

like the ones you'll find inside mice

they are very fragile and fiddly to plug back in and I really don't like them

something like this though is fine, they'll take a beating

and can usually even be restored if the pins get a bit bent etc

We coat our PCBs with a layer of... something to prevent shorts from spills. If you want to solder on the board, you need to get the coating off again. So... not uncommon at all. 🙂

how else would you find it if you lose it in that state

there are other ways to lose it than someone stealing it and wiping it

Oh you unda the sea?

Yeah a lot of people lose it like that
