It was a friend's reserve that came up but they couldn't afford it. Well I bought their reservation and said they could have it once they paid me back in full
I'm letting a friend borrow it right now but yeah, they've paid me half up to now. I told them pretty much verbatim, "it's mine until every last penny is paid."
Jesus
Thing is Id like like pay this much now and rest later if I trusted them.
But based on what you said.... Ooft
Are they struggling financially?
That reservation must have been a long time ago.
It has been. They are technically struggling financially but it's less from hardships and more from stupidity. They haven't had a job in years, get money for their birthday and what not from fairly wealthy grandparents.
They're only now getting their GED at like 26
Well time for work
What deck did they get
Lol
Don't wanna sound judgemental but I just wouldn't ever bother with this position.
I'd only do it if I really trusted them
Yeah lending money to friends is always a risky endeavour.
It's not nice having people owe you money that are "friends".
At least in my experience which is why I stopped that, if they can't afford it they can't afford it. Be a bit different if they literally have no food but tech stuff is a no go
At worst a friend thinks of you as a doormatt and thinks he can either get away with never paying you back, or just doesn't care enough about you to ever pay it back. The best you can hope for in these situations is that your mutual friends cut him off, but it's unlikely you get your money back, or if you do the friendship is null and void.
At best a friend feels they owe you, and will work very hard to get the debt paid back. Even if they know it's the right thing this can still sour the relationship at the very least in the short term because everytime you talk the debt will be in the backs of your minds like a bloody phantom.
it's a decked library now
Time to go to the apple store and rant about ios again.
@crisp granite @shadow minnow
Man
Apple are the only place that makes me wanna become a Karen
If they are appointment only today I'm gonna yeet
Apple is a company
you know what he meant
Oh, like apples on a tree? But wouldn’t it be apples then?
pro has better display
want to say the right seems as if its a better display but could be light+angle or smth
you probably dont need the speed on a tablet i guess
So don't test them in an Apple store. Go to literally any other electronics store large enough to have an Apple section?
Has not stopped people from jailbreaking iphones lol literally in the store
12.9 Is night and day though
Fuck ghem
Playing games on these are so insane
FFS
This mouse pad
I hate it
@shadow minnow I forgot
What's the equivalent of start
What
The thing that pops up
No idea
"bind" sounds like customizability
Notch
I keep going to tap the screen
Every time
Man
The mac mini is way heavier and bigger than I thought
Holy
The mac mino studio is insane
Will say
Speakers 👌
I mean tbf it's not the first time playing with them but I was reminded again
Pro higher size has superb speakers
Tablet user😏
Well some laptops do have touchscreens
Aye
Idk how MacBooks don't
Apple wants to separate the lines
i’ve never understood touchscreens on laptops
Nor did I till I got one
“our touchpad is shit so have a touchscreen that’s hard to fuck up”
You can use in tablet mode at times and I guess you could feel less cubersome
I like touchscreen if it doesn't fuck up thr quality of screen
No?
If anything I find the touchpad irritating on the MacBook
I'd probably have to get used to it though lol
personally if you want a for drawing work tablet I'd get the iPad pro 12 inch
if you need it as a computer I'd just get a macbook
I have a first gen pro
I don't really draw and that's why I'm struggling to justify the cost
I don't want a MacBook
I don't like osx no matter how much I try.
Guess I'm stubborn
But also they are only good if I spend thousands
The 13" "pro" Vs bigger one is night and day
Didn't realise till now how different there is as there weren't many people in the apple shop so I could prop compare
Speakers are good but bass is weird
Probably because I wasn't in a super optimal position
Don't think I ever really said this
But @shadow minnow when you were teeny or even before you were born j was using osx regularly
Did I spell that right @digital cliff
…
The last word ha
pixel response time moment
Mhmm but also later on around 2007-2012
I used to use them a lot because the computer/science lab next door let students go in after school till 6pm k
Bexin was still shutting himself then, yeah
Used to live there
But we also did lots of work there
Like making videos and music
That's why I hate garageband forever
And apple mice/keebs, always hated and always will.
command key placement just doesn't make sense
Only good apple keebs were from the 80’s
Today, best Mac keyboard is just a keychron board
They’re worse imo
Disagree lool
The apple ones at least aren’t built like wet cardboard
Unless you mean the shitty flat dell keyboards
if you even get a Mac keyboard for free anymore 
Because apple takes control
With imac models, yes
Also a mouse or touchpad iirc
ctrl makes sense on the far bottom left because you can hit it with your pinkey allowing you to hit shortcuts on the further side of the kb with better hand extension
meanwhile commands placement is designed for you to hit with your thumb
that is kinda insane, 2 drives for the space of one
They are just a normal 20tb with the actuator split in the middle
So top platters and bottom platters on are different actuators
But the pivot is the same
They sound like 2 hard drives I bet
I suspect it actually probably sounds a bit quieter since the different heads are moving at different speeds
I am considering getting a picoscope
Which one
Cause the cheap ones are outperformed by the 6022be, and the expensive ones you can get a scope from a metrology company
https://sigrok.org/wiki/Supported_hardware
Anything with a checkmark here is good
How are they outperformed? Only 20mhz
Tbf for the pric e
It looks pretty good
Near doubling the sample rate is alot for 70% the price lel
And pulseview is solidly the best scope application on pc
Go used for sure for more expensive than a 6022 but cheaper than a modern real one
You can also get an analog scope with passthrough used then hook up a digital scope to it for computer capture
Is there a higher frequency version of Hantek 6022BL?
Cause while it won't be accurate, an analog scope will show you signals far beyond it's actual bandwidth limit
Be
The other hanteks besides the ones listed here as green check are nearly useless
Oh wait
Bl?
That's a logic analyzer not an oscilloscope
What do you want?
Pretty sure it’s 2 in 1
Which would be preferable
I'm afraid not
"The device can either be used as oscilloscope or as logic analyzer, but not both at the same time. I.e., it is not a mixed-signal-oscilloscope (MSO).
Currently only the 8-channel logic analyzer mode is supported."
Get one of the $20 logic analyzers
They work and are shockingly capable
Hmm it seems to have way less sample collections
So I wonder if picoscope going beyond supported range wouldn’t work way better
The 6022be has as much sample collection as you have disk space on your pc
No I mean per second
Ok so get a used scope from a real company
Because of sponsorship
The tech companies I know is not sponsorship related
They are overpriced and based on off the shelf scope chips for the cheap models
And the expensive models are just worse versions of the actual big name scopes
Had it recommended by maker of a keyboard you are probably typing on rn 
Samsung?
Well from what I can see they collect more samples
Okay not rn then 
How much does sampling rate matter?
Because picoscopes seem to have it much higher than the alternative
At the same price? No
Sampling rate doesn't matter above 2x the bandwidth of the scope practically, but it can make prettier graphs
Also if you are doing things professionally, it makes a huge difference from being a hobbyist
Fast support matters alot
A used scope won't have support at all
But you can likely get a 1gsa/s scope for about 500
https://www.ebay.com/itm/285056659975
Now this is a monster lmao
https://www.ebay.com/itm/255931487049
Here's a usb 1 gig scope for about 200 in the us
Get ready for the next generation.
Announcement February 1st.
848
Another copium announcement

Well that’s almost the price of a 1gsa picoscope
Hmm can even see one for 10£
24mhz
Yes but for that price you should get a 250mhz 1gsa not a 100mhz one
Yep
They exist
They rely on your computer for memory
I have two of that Mac 😄
the wendell telport gets better each time
Rip pins
Yandex did not provide additional information on why the ‘N word’ was used in this case, but onlookers noticed it seemed to have also been used to replace 'workers' in various parts of its codebase.
Russian company
Racist
Considering what the Russian people been doing the only surprising thing is this was allowed in professional software.
...what have the russian people been doing?
I thought the issue was the government
they aren't an actual democracy, so it's not like one feeds into the other
Although the government holds a lot of power it's only in place because the people actively support. Yes a lot of this is down to propaganda, but at some point they do have to take accountability for throwing support behind Putin.
I would consider any anti-Putin Russian an ok guy, but they do seem to be in the minority after seeing so many putin stans. I feel as though many would actively choose to genocide Ukraine out of existence.
...the people do not actively support
and they aren't the minority
any average russian on the streets of a city would probably say "yeah this war is just fucking terrible and stupid"
propaganda is just wonderful at masking
It seems to me that many are against the war not for Ukrainian's sake, but their own. Considering the international backlash and fear of mobilisation.
Hard to tell exact percentages as any data collected in Russia about this event is going to be tampered with to appease the dictator
that's as good a reason as any lol
economy in the gutter, sons dying
you don't need to give a shit about Ukraine to realise life got a lot worse back home lol
sounds shallow, but that's your average person
My point being that if the Ukrain war had no cost they would've chosen genocide lol
nah
probably would have just let their government do their thing, turning a blind eye
most of em don't actually know the harsh reality
and it's effectively what they're trained to do from a young age
the truth would slowly trickle in, and the backlash would be a lot less widespread and easier to tamp down
information is power, and the average russian doesn't get much
I think that would be "impressive" for Russia to somehow maintain that, with the support Ukraine has they will eventually retake back their land including Crimea and then Russia will be stuck paying reparations for generations.
why tf are people mad about microsoft implementing a better idle shutoff
people are mad about that?
The what now?
series s/x idling behaviour
current idle behaviour takes 20W
Ah - Thought you were talking about the ongoing sleep state issues with laptops* 😄
Oh people aren’t mad about it, some republican on fox needs just used that in his braindead talk as if the evil woke are coming for your console next
Oh that stuff.
What extra components are required for hall effect switches to work vs mechanical switches? Like, you can hook up a switch to a hotswap socket, what would be the equivalent for a hall effect switch, what are they mounted to? Do you need a pcb for hall effect switches or could they be hand wired?
Instead of a physical pin based connection to the PCB, the Lekker switches rely on a magnetic sensor soldered to the PCB under every switch. The switch itself is basically just a magnet on a stem going up and down.
The sensor does all the hard work as far as telling how far down each switch is pushed down. It's all about precision and range - Machine soldering will be more accurate and allow for a wider range of 0-100 than doing it by hand. And of course you'll need firmware etc.. as well.
Could those magnetic sensors be hand wired like hotswap sockets can?
it needs to be firmly in place
Read what I said again 😄
if you want to diy with HE
this can give you an idea
it uses DIGITAL HE sensors though
I can’t find a single picoscope review that’s not about automotive industry …
in the end the important part is that HE sensor and switch housing are roughly the same distance on all switches and don't move independently
the rest can be done in calibration
with analog sensors
Yeah analog sensors are much better for this usecase
the switches work well actually
you just need a good method for keeping them all in the same place
Ideally I'd be mounting the sensors directly to an aluminum case itself, providing the stability needed for it, but I don't know what the sensors look like/how they work exactly
I made a small project utilizing that, and there is also someone making minipad fw, which has way more features but is slower if you need too many keys
Both using arduino
But for a thing like this you definitely need some mcu coding knowledge
I'm not as concerned about the software side of things at the moment, I'm trying to get a grasp on the actual physical mechanisms, dimensions, constraints, etc, to see if it could even be viable to physically make what I have in mind
Hence why I'm asking about no pcb/hand wiring: I know I could hand wire something, but I don't have anywhere near the experience or knowledge to work on something like a custom pcb yet
I wouldn't hold my breath on doing a noPCB setup for this. Way too loosey goosey and inaccurate.
If the sensors were mounted to a precision-machined aluminum frame, wouldn't that be stable enough? I don't know how the sensors are mounted to a pcb to begin with. Is there somewhere I could learn about the sensors more?
Remember the Mori Calliope earbuds I showed?
There are Bocchi the Rock earbuds now :')

so basically, brand that does merch deals uses same product with new merch packaging
imo the most important part about headphones are the headphones
and not what was printed on them
The thing is anime merch is a whole different level
How so? :')
If you can stick an anime reference on it, it can become merch and most places wouldn't go to the extreme that Japan does when it comes to merch
no these are licensed deals not just random engravings
inb4 licensed vtuber rebranding
its the same product just with branding on it
e.g NGE has merch from model kits of crustaceans to alpacas
it is both 
NGE has merch of fucking everything
Yeah, they are the meme of merch
GET IN THE LOBSTER, SHINJI!
(lewd butter noises)
how does that change anything though
The point that if it can be anime themed it can be made into merchandise
at this point I'm more surprised there isn an american private healthcare company sponsored by depressed shinji
Closest you'll get is the health/energy drinks
I will say that the NGE motherboard looks sick imo
not worth the price tag but still cool
it looks like toys for 10 year olds
the fuck is that anime stuff.... it looks not good imo
yeah I think the other mecha branded gpus were done much better by yeston and such
was about to say i saw better colabs on stuff than this
the only good looking thing design wise is the deskmat
wait yeston made an nge gpu?
but overall it doesnt tie in as it lacks the purple
tought only asus has those
I said mecha not nge
ah
asus also has the gundam cards that are a bit better
cant find if it was yeston or someone else but there were gpus with gundams on them that werent nge
idk whod want this nge design except so die hard fans they are blinded by the fact its nge related
iit might be a hit in the east so they just take what they have and are selling it in the west too
idk the colors are cool ig
idk purple and light green dont scream cool to me
I know that brand, but there were some shrouds that had the actual gundam on the backplate not just the color scheme
i feel like the green accent is just too present
also asus?
nah it was china only stuff becuase they didnt have a license for it lol
cant find it
Personally I love all the crazy out there stuff but in reality my PCs are in boring Fractal Design sound proof cases

those new fractal cases are really nice though
the new wood one and that torrent one before it are both so nice, fractal really killing it with basic cases
does apex pro tkl 2023 have something like rapid trigger on wooting? or only wooting has this type of function
steelseries and adding features
nope - apex didn't implement analogue in a way that allows rapid trigger, so without a physical rework they can't add it in
that's it
they do though
they just haven't implemented it
so then i have to wait for wooting xd
and it won't happen because steelseries seems to be incompetent
i just cant wait so long i just ordered it and it says itll be in stock in april
im very impatient person xd
they don't - people have tried to figure out how to do it with just software but their method of analogue isn't setup to do rapid trigger
mb i should just pay to a hypnotist to make me forget about it before it delivers?
they have the same method of analog
there's a few threads around from people trying to work around it, but no one was able to
legit
the board has very similar hardware
but you can't just attach a software to it
yes similar but slightly different
since it doesn't have an sdk
like wooting does
so you can't just access switch data yourself
steelseries COULD implement it
but it won't happen
would bet on that
is one of the threads discussing it
so basically they can't just patch it without physically changing something in the keyboard first
You need to do it on the keyboard not with drivers
They aren't incorrect there
that's just bs
No because while it can process inputs the MCU isn't capable of outputting analog values because it doesn't run the proper scans via the board.
If the board is reading analog values it can output them
the mcu HAS to run proper scans on the board
It has to read analog for every key to work
Yeah
also it was asked about the newer version
That person has no idea how the keyboard works
which already has something akin to dks
Now it's possible the MCU is to slow to do xinput
Butttt
The woofing one isn't fast by any means
so would it be possible to software patch then? or would they still have to do something on the actual keyboard?
An ardiuno can do xinput emulation
would be possible
If you wanted to do it you would have to rewrite the entire firmware for the keyboard
Because you don't have the current source code so you have to start from scratch
And last I checked there is no open source analog capable of keyboard firmware
do i rly need rapid trigger if i counterstrafe anyway, whats the use for it in game like valo?
It's not something you do in drivers
Wooting is all done on the keyboard, Wootility just changed the settings on the keyboard
integrating it in qmk yourself is not impossible
hardware is the bigger issue
rapid trigger thatis
it's still an improvement (especially in valorant where counterstrafing is very minimal effect)
but u stil counterstrafe all time so is there any use for it specificly for valorant?
easiest way to think about it for valorant is you know that timing window when you stop in between shots (or if you jiggle shoot where you shoot in between the 2 strafes without stopping)
that timing window becomes way easier to hit with a wooting
DKS works on Ones though?
because it's more precise and it happens exactly when you release the key vs. you waiting for that split second to actually stop/change direction and fire
the 2023 model has a dks equivalent
no like
hmm
and u had before apex tkl?
sounds good if its like that
i had other boards but not apex tkl
and the apex pro has been their product with the most revenue outside audio
but none of them have rapid trigger which is what makes your strafing movement feel so exact
easiest way i can explain the effect is you know the movement error graph in valorant? Turn that on and go do jiggle peek shots in the range - if you see blue it means your timing was off slightly
yes
when you have a wooting it becomes way easier to do it consistently without any blue bars
and u had other keebs with fast actuation?
just having your strafe cancel closer to when you let go makes it easier to time it
yeah like razers
the problem is always that fast actuation just means your key has to go all the way back up to actuation point again to release, but it happens instantly on wooting with rapid trigger
yes but i think if i counterstrafe then it doesnt matter
everyone on the artisan/artisan clone hype train
coz i press the opposite key
not just that
gigantus v2 for example is just a better qck
but i understand coz i release my first key before mb itll help depends on the window of time
cheap af as well
before releasing of the first key and pressing the opposite
theoretically if you counter strafe perfectly every single time then you only save a slight timing every time with a wooting - but basically no one can do it that precisely every time
noted, who's the ex rainbow pro and only counterstrafe shoots with a phantom himself can't do the timing every time in game - so having things like wooting makes it way easier to hit that window where you let go and time the shot
i understand how it may work i just didnt have wooting before obviously so idk about the timing
Increases the chance of the first shot being accurate 🙂
so u release the first key
and even before pressing the opposite key to counterstrafe u already stop?
well in valorant to begin with counterstrafing doesn't matter much
because unlike cs you stop almost instantly once the game recognizes you stopping the key press
Yeah Valorant is 1 frame for stopping, CSGO is 7 frames
So it's much more effective in CSGO
the main advantage in valorant is just that your strafe happens exactly when you want it to instead of that slight delay you have to time
so it feels easier to time and input your burst fires with that window vs. having to time for that slight delay
The Wooting helps that 1 frame Val stop though 🙂
yep, theoretically you stop the strafe faster too
so do u stop after releasing the first key before pressing the opposite with wooting?
or the counterstrafe will still help
well you don't really have to counterstrafe, but what we're basically saying is to exaggerate the idea - think of if you want to stop you let go of the key then you stop and fire
without the wooting let's say you do it in 0.5 seconds or whatever
with the wooting you do it quicker because there isn't that delay while the key goes back up
to maybe put it a different way, to stop with a normal mech switch, you need to recross the actuation point to deregister the press, with the wooting, it deregisters as soon as it recognizes the swith moving up
its just that if the window of time before releasing 1st key and pressing the opposite is shorter then it takes for valorant character to stop after releasing movement key (without counterstrafe) then its not so useful. i need to find out how many ms exactly it takes in valorant
i think you're not quite getting it
the time for the character to stop never changes, you're just able to do those start and stops quicker
You don't need to counterstrafe in Valorant to stop quicker xD
and that number of MS is going to be far more dependant on how fast you individually can press and release rather than how fast teh board registers it
People are just used to doing it because of CSGO
so the character will stop in the same time after releasing button and with counterstrafe?
yes
counterstrafing in valorant doesn't do much
with or without counterstrafing you stop almost instantly
i feel my movement better with cfing
And that stopping is multiplied by using Wooting rapid trigger xD
yeah that's fine, a lot of people who played cs still counterstrafe, I do it too since i came from cs
it just doesn't do much beyond me being used to doing it when i strafe
where you'll notice the wooting more is jiggle peeking angles
like where you jiggle out 1-2 steps and instantly strafe back without stopping
when you fire the 1-2 shots in between the movement change there it's way easier to time with a wooting
yeah thats a good use
when i watch good players they often strafe, spray 2 bullets, repeat
Sounds like Apple might be constipated

Oh definitely, but mine are the define r5 and define S which are the blandest of the bland.
Never been one for having a computer on my desk really
So how it looks doesn't matter to me
Those new cases look like they came out a designer catalog
the tragedy is getting a nice case and 3 monitors but then you realize you have no room for the case on the desk anymore
I have the three monitors and they take up my whole corner desk lol
Under desk case means keeping warm I guess though
I mounted a shelf to the wall
Lmao
the real question is what do you guys do with your monitor stands after mounting
i literally have no idea wtf to do with them and they just sit in a room on the floor. My wife gets angry that they take up space but i don't know wtf to do with the leftover stands after using a monitor arm
I put them back in the monitor's box. Because I kind of want to keep that in case I sell the monitor at a later date or need warranty.
I put mine somwhere and now I can't find them. Was going to give my friend my old monitors but I can't find the stands anywhere 😂
Gone back to keeping the stands on because it allows it to be close to the wall than with an arm.
Plus the arms I'd need would probably cost £500+ 🥹
Neat, I see someone at Discord used Element and decided to copy that idea. Unfortunately this also enables the role badges, yuck!
compact mode ftw
Yep, in box in shed
Wish it was in mobile
Yeah, but I was on about avatars in compact mode which I would totally leave on if it didn't have those nasty role badges
@ashen spindle how do you think the earnings will go today?
should go up, their server demand is still strong
gpus arent doing amazing but that was already in last calls adjustment and its lower volume
idk how the deal with pensando and xilinx is, when that is fully integrated or how their roadmaps look so idk from that aspect
Pantheon desktop is so so so pretty <3 <3 I wish it worked well outside of ElementaryOS
Considering getting Siglent 1104X-E, opinions?
@astral haven
Not a used one, but one many people recommended
This isn't even a bad price new tbh
And it can be hacked to double the bandwidth and more features aparently
Wait wdym
If you are hacking it, your warranty's gone anyways
Well it’s just putting serial number into a script that gives you unlock codes out.
Which could void warranty though legally aparently shouldn’t
Unless the fault is caused by you putting in the code
But like 100mhz is definitely enough for now
its real easy to remove Widgets on Windows 11.... NICE :D
winget uninstall "windows web experience pack"
Or you know... just right click and disable it?
Fascinating. I had no issues removing it back when I used the W11 start menu (and the rest of the W11 taskbar UI*)
That ain't happening. The OS still relies on it for a lot of stuff.
Such as?
does it break anything if Edge is gone?
Only one way to find out.
🤔 this commands dont mention Edge, better not trust that one
oh, you run it from the Edge folder
oh, this is waht you mean
Two things I never use
Hmm
At least it remembers the setting next time the app is launched
Just install your browser of choice and set it as default
No need to get rid of Edge 🤷♂️
I also removed Bing search results from the desktop search box xf
You'll be begging for them both back when they implement ChatGPT into both Edge and Bing 😂
Nah xd
You can ask it and it will make up some I heard
is there a way to get the old windows video editor back lol?
just need a tool to cut videos, nothing else
it was so nice and simple
or does anyone have a suggestion for a free tool that does that?
that aint the old one
oh that works too, didnt know the new one is a thing lmfao
it literally is just a link to ClipChamp LOL
Idk what else you want 😂
Anyone know if MovieMaker is still a thing? 
That's Windows 11
Windows 10 has video editor
lame
guess when I last looked it wasnt there or idk
meh lowers video quality because 1080p is the highest option
but good enough for now
The new Snipping Tool in Win 11 has screen record...
🤔 but doesnt record audio, strange
All Hail ffmpeg
yeah that works but also I have ptsd from having to add ffmpeg into a work project written in C
and having to manually do video shit and deal with issues
does ffmpeg have a good GUI front end?
idk
can you join Windows Insider without having Windows activated?
cause if I activate Windows on my laptop, it de-activates my desktop

ncie, havent seen anything yet, bust raiding haha
It's just ffmpeg. The UI is very slick and has good presets
Get ShareX
Best screenshot/annotate/screen record out there
Why doesn’t Microsoft snipping tool auto save stuff
what if your pc crashes
tough luck
Or you forget about it, I am just used to it being automatic
Why can’t you at least set it
🤷
Pretty sure you can tell it to auto save
At least in win 11 you can tell it to save to the screenshots folder in the pictures library location
I think in win 10 it saves to a folder in appdata
sharex dose it all fam i love it
I looked at high end oscilloscopes for fun and some can go up to 100ghz which is crazy

kighsite has to offical record at like 110ghz 256Gs/s
but there is specialized equpioment for measuring signals faster than that
In this episode Shahriar takes a look at one of the most advanced electrical test and measurement instruments ever created. The Keysight UXR-Series Real-Time Oscilloscope brings 110GHz of analog bandwidth and 256GS/s real-time sampling at 4-channels simultaneously. To make it even more impressive, the entire data-conversion architecture is in 10...
I mean tbf I probably won’t need that for a bit (while) but it’s definitely interesting something is capable of it
And it’s also funny it’s 10 bit for the price
Like I get why but still funny
i mean
10 bit is more than enough for that
you arent going to get enough snr to read more than 10 bit at 100ghz
its only like 5mv/div
soo
for refrence
110ghz priod is 9*10^-12 seconds
times c, gives 2.7 mm
light moves 2.7mm per period of 110ghz
Hmm that is quite crazy
yeah
now you know why you dont need 10 bit
lol
also its 256gs/s
so its sampling that 10bit at 256ghz
so 1.17mm per sample
Well no, it’s so disappointing, at least 16 bit at that price 
you cant get that resolution with silcon at that bandwidth lol
Just use graphene 
that isnt how that work
you use gallium arsnide or in this case indium phosphide instead of slicon for the front end
the crazy thing the is the second stage is slicon running at 16ghz
all 4 adc run at 80GB/s of data into the asic that dose the fancy magic dsp to make it into 110ghz scope
thats 320 GB/s or 2.56 Tbit/s
going to 16bit would push to 4Tbit/s
Ooo
This would be a great idea for Linux distros
And then users are still free to install any package however they want to
Kinda like a less extreme version of Fedora Silverblue or Kinoite?
But what if I want my 110ghz oscilloscope to also be a 10 digit dmm?
Gimme my 24 bits per sample please
i mean its 4 channel fullysinked you could simply offset the channels by a fraction of a nanosecond
lol
super sample your scope
That increases the sample rate not the precision
scope bit rate is vertical resolution, so supersampling will give you more resolution
not 12bit
but better than 10
And I don't think that scope supports different offsets per channel simultaneously
it dose not
It does taa lel
also like i said
Regardless that doesn't get you to 10 digits
you arent getting that kind of resolution at that freqency on silcon
even though its quad sample
I'm aware that I can't, doesn't mean I dont deserve it if im paying more than a cheap house for the scope...
In this market...
No I mean this housing market...
the front end is indium phsophide, which dosent have the dynamic range to do 12bit
i think the fastest 10bit is like 10ghz
there is no need for it
Intel is doing huge cuts to base wages/salary for ALL employees. Also pausing bonuses. Also cutting 401k match.
I got 3 different messages about this from Intel employees within 30 seconds.
This affects people from product to fab to design.
Oof.
$INTC @intel $AMD $TSM $NVDA
154
Think this could make people leave to other companies lol
oooofofff
shares still have same dividends lel
tbf they might also cut it, but if they dont that is really bad looking, it already is not great
yikes
dont know if this is the right place to ask but anyone have any recommendations on any good usb microphones? under 150
the only USB microphone that is semi worth it in that range is the elegato wave
USB mics generally just are inferior to XLR mics
yeah ive been looking around just not sure if i should rlly put the money into an interface since i dont have one just yet
any cheap behringer will work quite well as a starter
the xm8500 is quite a competent mic despite it's low price
is the at2020 xlr good for its price?
really depends on what you need it for
not really using it for anything crazy, just regular use such as recording
honestly just looking for an upgrade that is worth, i have a blue snowball which i bought like 4 years ago lol
are you recording vocals for music, streaming? YouTube? etc?
youtube/streaming
then I'd get a dynamic mic
not a condenser
something like the Audix OM2
has a very tight pickup pattern and will eliminate background noise and keyboard noise
that and a umc22 and honestly that'll be all you really need, getting anything more expensive just for streaming is a waste of money
yeah i was just looking at this seems pretty good
thanks for the help!
btw dynamic microphones don't need phantom power, so turn that off on the interface
now i really really want to find a lanpart X48 T2R
i own the crazy backside cooler
and a one 5870 with a trad and the backside cooler too
one day
i can complete it
Does the built in double movement on the Wooting work on console?
I do both in this
C2Q with 4x1gb so I can run one stick for 98
5870 that I disable for 98
Audigy 2 for sound
Voodoo2 sli single card + 6200 for 98
Maybe
Pretty fast lol
980 is retro lmao?
Yes I know
I'm just okd
So saying am2/3 is retro is weird
Yeah
I still have a 1090t system
My buddies grandma uses it
It's ddr3 at least
They are $200
When would I get my order if anyone can help me
Is the 60he faster then the twohe?
people be like must spend 2 grand on computer every 2 years or so or other people think am le poors
It's 40% smaller and has the ability to change cases. That's it.
But for months ago was the 60he faster
Please don’t troll me
Hmm? The 60HE will always be a tiny fraction of a second faster. Fewer keys to scan each cycle.
Also please pick a channel and stick with it. Don't ask in multiple channels.
So 60he faster?
Is wooting better then series apex?
software and build quality is a clear cut better imo
also wooting support 👌🏻
they do spend ludicrous amounts on their ads
Summarize it in a sentence. Why should I care about a Corsair PSU?
That has GOT to be the dumbest gimmick I have seen in recent memory.
just break your fingers like usual to not take it out the case
their higher end stuff has reliably been good
not the case with many other companies
and higher end is just just HXi or a dark power
ngl i usually installed modular psus without any cables
and plugged em in after the psu was secured
Not only do you need a wide fucking case, but the plugs aren't even angled 90", so it just adds more fucking wasted space.
All that to not have to (checks notes), loosen four screws if you can't get your fat fingers into the cable mess to plug something in.
yea that psu is just weird
makes sense for a handful of cases
works in more cases than that weird seasonic one
Ye
Imagine inventing a problem and solving it by upselling you not only a new PSU but a Case that'll fit it.
sounds like the kind of company that would sell you a gaming keyboard with mx switches for $180+
having more options is something I wouldn't see as an issue, allows for more case design changes and if it doesnt make sense people will just not buy it I think
- the O11 style case is already hugely popular
I only have a problem with them INVENTING a problem to be solved. It would be different if they had found a niche solution to a huge problem broadly present in the case market.
I dont think they invented the problem though?
Sure feels to me like they invented a new case shape design that allows for these to be used in the first place.
I have - never seen a case where there's room on the SIDE of the PSU 😄
not sure if corsair invented it
but their first case with that fomrfactor is old enough to not have been invented for that
(Going through mental archive of every case he's ever touched - Can't find a single one where this PSU would fit)
The O11 can't fit it. Not sure what you're trying to say 😄
in all cases I put cables in it was annoying having to fiddle with cables once it was in, so the quality of life problem exists, and if its solved by different case and different psu, I still dont see the issue, others can follow up if people like the idea, or cases that are really big could already ahve psace for it
You're not getting this side mounted PSU in an Lian Li.
the 011 has drive bays above the psu
the O11 easily fits it
SIDE MOUNTED PLUGS.
that top HDD cage is removable
even has the option for a second PSU
That is the only HDD mount in the case.
You're not exactly solving anything but putting the side mounted in between the PSU and HDD slot.
but there is also enough space for cables next to the fans unlike the corsair
you use the room more efficiently
You're removing functionality to fix a non issue in the Lian Li.
an HDD is not functionality to me on a gaming rig
Then you are part of a minority - Still to this day.
Yes... that's my point dude.
also not the only case in that style around
Most cases still use a flat mounted PSU, meaning your cables would go out the side of the case. Through the side panel.
but even if it doesnt work in existing cases, that doesnt mean they created the problem just because both psu and case design would need to change for it to be most beneficial
can corsair ONLY release products that target a majority?
the O11D style case got really popular
if it works well for them good for them
if it doesn't work for you you can always buy the same model in a more traditional layout
If the argument is that they're inventing a problem that isn't there, with an upsell of both the product itself as well as the product it fits into? Yes.
As mentioned Lian Li cases don't HAVE this problem to begin with. Plenty of with a traditional PSU.
I really can't see the problem
lian li cases have the problem though
No. No they do not.
They do? There's space for many hard drives above my PSU
fitting a long psu can be very tricky in them
Even though it's empty xD
due to the cables
No.

literally
read the title of the post from the image you posted
They're using long ass custom cables.
Not the ones that actually came with the fucking case.
literally top coment
Check your own arguments, mate 😄
And about 60% shorter.
This is an O11 mini though
still a market for it
also tons of other O11D clones out there
One that they basically invented, yes.
And yeah the cables clearly don't help him 😂
FREMONT, CA – September 2nd 2016 - CORSAIR®, a world leader in enthusiast memory, PC components and high-performance gaming hardware today extended its multi-award winning range of performance PC cases with the release of the new CORSAIR Carbide Air 740. Featuring CORSAIR’s innovative dual-chamber D
yea corsair has been playing the long game
inventing a case formfactor in 2016
to then release a PSU that MIGHT work slightly better with it 7 years later
greedy fuckers
Ah yes - So little space there for a long PSU and cables.
the entire left space is used for cooling now though
actually
make that 10 years
All the space in the world.
again
entire left space is cooling now
is it really that horrible to you
that they dare to offer something different
Yes? And? I can still fit a 360mm fan with rads, 18 RGB and fan case cables plus controllers into this case.
Your arguments are terrible. You're more than welcome to disagree with the notion that Corsair didn't literally invent a problem that wasn't there to begin with, only to sell cases the solution required. But I'm pretty adamant about that being the case from where I'm sitting.
what
so you tell me they played the 10 year game
of wanting to sell people 2 chamber designs
You literally showed cases that didn't need the PSU to begin with. There is no 10 year game.
none of their cases NEED the psu though
no one said they did?
Here's a gif of a cat. Because this is the dumbest debate I've had in here in a while, and I have actual work to do 
I still dont see the problem, its a different thing, if people find uses for it or cases that make more use with it exist, good more options
sure its not solving some longstanding issues that breaks computers, but like, it also doesnt need to?
do we need to move on though
old doesn't mean it is bad
just making it a different random cuboid won't change anything
yea uhh
I wish
but 12VO won't change anything about physical layout
if there is an advantage to moving the ports somewhere else why not try it
idk if that would be so great for sff
12vo means more voltage handling on board so that takes away space/cost left over for things
most SFF SI things do something similar anyways
you love to see it
no option for pdf
or any other format that you can actually use
yea well pdf isnt something I would describe as something you can use either
gl opening an oxps or xps then

Intel has announced major driver improvements for its Arc...
why does no one benchmark machine learning workloads on gpus
especially new ones where it actually is interesting like intels
look at phoronix or so, they do that
gaming focused content wont have that because that would just be boring content for their audience
HU does some productivity at least in their cpu reviews and I think gn also does some of that
they just lag behind on stuff like ml
yes because its simple do use a blender scene or similar since they use that for video production anyway
none of them use ml for the video process so they would have mostly no clue about what to test, how to test etc.
both yes
and you can just have a gcc compile comparison that is simple to do but they also dont really mention anything about compiler flags or anything since thats outside their scope
anandtech does/did ml testing because when ian was doing it he had knowledge about it
because ML performance can change massively in no time
also it's not quite an apples to apples comparison
not to mention if you dont include cdna, xeons, epyc etc. it lacks a lot of info and those cost way too much for reviewers since they wouldn't get samples for it
well for pytorch comparing between ROCm and cuda is quite accurate afaik
and open benchmark would be the other useable site, since there are so many permutations possible of how you run it and all, it's not feasible for GN or HU to have the data in a relevant format
I'd just love to know the perf of the a770 for machine learning since it is quite cheap for large vram
hard to find that information
especially since intel didn't launch them with any support for that as far as I remember
see, now another issue that needs to be dealt with, oneapi isn't on a level where you can just take cuda projects and test it on arc
that is def true
the time it would take to get data just isnt possible to be spent by any of them when they dont use the stuff daily already
I'd love if they would add that in the future tho
I think it makes more sense if they dont, leave that to phoronix and others that have much more knowledge about it
with stable diffusion and such machine learning is becoming more consumer accessible
unless we get to a point where local SD is something more than jsut 4090 users do and has a canned benchmark that is putting out relevant data
hmmm I ran stable diffusion on my 1070ti and it was okay enough I imagine newer cards would be much better
I'd love too see intel compete with nvidia in the compute domain at least on the consumer side since ROCm is such a fucking mess
yea would be nice
this is interesting behaviour
using win + s to bring the search box makes only the search box appear over a fullscreen app

cause If I press the windows key to get the start menu, the WHOLE taskbar shows up
yea but you then proceed to open something else from your searchbox
which would kick you out of fullscreen anyways
and if I search from the start menu, the search window just floats there without the search box sohwing
wait... searching from the start menu has the textbox at the top
Window's PowerToys Run is the better search anyway
highly recommend just using that
yeah i mean no windows search is gonna compare. but it's certainly the better between it and start menu search
Once I disabled web results and other garbage, the start search is all I need to launch apps now really
Do you still need to edit the registry just to stop it doing that shit?
It's pretty annoying how bad it is, windows 7 was so good at search but it's regressed more and more for no reason.
I used that tool ChrisTitus made to block them

First AMD Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs to launch on February 28th AMD has confirmed the launch date and pricing for its Ryzen 7000X3D series. AMD Ryzen 7000X3D Pricing, Source: AMD The company reveals that its flagship 16-core Ryzen 9 7950X3D will cost just as much as the ‘original’ Ryzen 9 7950X 16-core Zen4 at launch, which […]

well it kinda is
since the prices already are down from msrp/ non-x parts are a thing
I mean 7950x isn't old
And to replace it with a better part for the same price is good
i genuinely expected closer to 1000
they cant, intel is shitting out cpus with such low margins to compete on volume
actually a tempting upgrade now but that also means new ram..
anyone
Russian can't import anything over like 20mhz right now
yeah it’s super easy
They can't import direct from Taiwan
Pretty much
They can just ship them to China first
taiwan -> mainland china -> russia
yep
price premium is the same as it was before war
But that is why there has been some many leaks of the Russian chips
They are stuck in Taiwan
people will always find a way to make money
western media doesn’t seem to realize that
Russian only has like 80nm domestic
So tsmc has been making their chips
But now they can't be exported
does anyone know why I can
So grey market is leaking them
i don’t think so no
https://twitter.com/EricJhonsa/status/1617928708307943425 this is why v cache is not more expensive
Bernstein (downgrading $AMD to Market Perform) says $INTC is engaged in "semi-destructive behavior" in the PC CPU market "as they use both price and capacity as a strategic weapon, continuing to overship even amid broader breakdowns in the industry."
106
does anyone know why I cant set actuation point for specific keys? I cant highlight them in wootility
oh my bad
np
now we just have chinese brands instead of the usual western ones
for laptops for example
why is it even tempting you when you dont even use your pc 😛
Haha you aren't wrong but I'm also incredibly impulsive
I'm addicted to hardware 
also do you even do anything cpu limited, werent the last games still gpu bound?
don’t entirely get that argument
cpu performance affects your entire user experience, gpu performance mostly only games
i guess that’s true
he has a 5600x so more cores for code/render whatever is an option on am4, v cache makes only sense for games on desktop
so no point if hes not cpu bound
Huh
The pricing is not bad
5800X3D pricing remains for the 7800X3D which is pretty bonkers
7950X3D looks affordable though
could be better tho
especially since its only getting the cache chip on 1 of the two ccds
No clue how that'd really impact performance
and apparently the perf improvements arent as significant
gonna be real jank
We'll see in practice how these do when benchmarks drop
i predict great in benchmarks, but on a loaded down system itll be inconsistent
I guess the only question I really have
