I posted the video about Wendell looking skinnier not the gpu itself

#

Projectors have always been fast

#

I mean yes

#

It's a dlp

#

Pixel response is fast

#

Sony sxdr isnt great, they Are like 20ms

#

I think they do 2k/1080 120fps at 12ms

#

But the full 4k60 is slow on them

#

I mean cheap ones sure

#

My last actual permanent projector was a used Panasonic I got

#

When I still did 3d

#

It was 1080p120 and had 5-6ms max

#

It has almost zero internal digital image adjustment

Shameless floatplane plug dogekek

vagrant pagoda
#

I mean he has no shame

#

Lmao

#

That ran out a long time ago

#

I meant floatplane isn't a money sink

#

It makes money

#

It just has zero growth without other social media

#

Why

#

It isn't cheap for what you get

#

Brightness for oleds however is such an gigantic factor that you really need to be careful with it

#

And yea wrgb is not great unless you crank the dpi way up on a monitor as good luck getting good subpixel rendering

ashen spindle
#

I know after a year of heavy useage for both home office and gaming, nothing on my qd oled yet

#

so at the current rate I wont need to make use of the 3 year burn in exchange

#

and thats good enough for me

thick elk
#

Conservative brightness targets make all the difference, I remember some youtuber making a completely static burn in test on his nintendo switch with relatively little issues.

ashen spindle
#

oh yeah I havent used much HDR yet and have brightness down quite a bit

#

that probably helps

thick elk
#

hdr probably isn't a big factor as it's generally not sustained for long enough to matter, however if you keep the brightness cranked to 100% in an office it's probably going to end up worse

#

Also relatively dynamic

ashen spindle
#

ya I'm at 38% brightness lol

thick elk
#

I know, I just don't find his channel that worthwile in general but the burn-in test gave a good illustration.

just

#

and like that, I became painfully aware that my body could produce semen

vagrant pagoda
#

No 16 inch amd 😦

crisp granite
#

I hope that comes down the pipeline tbh

#

either way, framework went from "passing fad" to "the hottest shit" within my mind in about half an hour

vagrant pagoda
#

I mean Linus went all in too

thick elk
#

Still don't like their expansion port design, however recently I come to see it as less relevant on a laptop.
A relatively inexpensive usb-c dock can include all the io you need most of the time, so in terms of ports I have started see it's not too terrible

ashen spindle
#

maybe they hacked LTT because linus didnt give them enough to fund the next step

thick elk
#

usb-a + 2x usb-c seems pretty much fine for most use,

#

of course also having a 3.5mm port

shadow minnow
thick elk
#

My point was mostly that I could be perfectly fine with a laptop + dock, just requiring power and a mouse on the go, and more peripherals ready for when you plug it in the dock. a dongle can just be the more convenient option for a laptop.

shadow minnow
#

Tbh I kinda don’t like docks or one to multiple singles

#

I am lazy

thick elk
#

Take my mom as an example, connects her laptop to two screens, keyboard + mouse + ethernet.
Using a dock means just plugging in one cable when getting home, having all directly in the laptop means a lot more plugging.
Using the dock is the lazy option.

shadow minnow
#

Oh dock is great for that

#

If you have a monitor kb mouse setup at home

#

For me I use my monitor as an usb hub in such cases

#

But I am more often using my laptop on the go

#

Where I don’t bring a charger nor a dock

thick elk
#

I personally found that when really on the go, I also don't have a lot to plug in.

#

just charging and a mouse mostly

final flame
shadow minnow
#

I mostly use just trackpad, and due to good battery life no charger need when going to school even if I use my laptops for many hours

#

Oh yeah same, though I haven’t been using mine too much anymore as I usually just don’t use a mouse unless playing Minecraft which is not often anymore

crisp granite
#

only time I use my mouse is the occasional bit of metro exodus

final flame
#

I use a mx master, which I rarely charge for months

thick elk
#

One thing I personally dislike about modern laptops is the god awful keyboard layouts My current 14inch laptop has a straightforward 75% layout newer ones often have home end pageup / page down all locked behind modfifiers

shadow minnow
#

Slovak keyboard language is fun, need to hold shift to write numbers

crisp granite
#

slovak has...46? iirc

thick elk
#

Another key I would personally miss but most people won't is the menu button it's really quite convenient when using keyboard navigation

crisp granite
# crisp granite slovak has...46? iirc

no way that was going to fit neatly on an ISO keyboard
I know Georgian can cheat because capital letters aren't a thing, so shift can be used to access more characters on the alpha cluster

thick elk
#

Maybe specifically in spreadsheets

autumn igloo
#

is it better to put all keys set to 0.1 or is it better to set only the ones I use to 0.1 and the ones I never use even to 4.0

ashen spindle

floral meteor

Depends what you do

ashen spindle
#

hmm either get fucked UK or they might discontinue the 64gb version

pale sigil

Yeah the wd black 1tb is like $50

Does steam deck support pcie 4.0

astral haven
#

Nope

empty wren
#

Sigh so difficult to find a G¼" male to M5 female adapter

empty wren
#

Well the tubing I want to use is 4mm OD and on top of that EPDM or silicone is a better choice so my option is only barbed fitting

vagrant pagoda
#

4mm is tiny

empty wren
#

Indeed

vagrant pagoda
#

What are you going to cool with that little of water

empty wren
#

The heatblock of this hotend

vagrant pagoda
#

Why use g 1/4

astral haven
#

I bought an sn740 on ebay and it was fine

vagrant pagoda
#

Just use a smaller pump/res/rad

empty wren
#

Not sure why that did not cross my mind

vagrant pagoda
#

Best you could do g 1/4 is a alphacool mcx

#

Which is 3mm

empty wren
#

I see

vagrant pagoda
#

They are tiny single vram blocks

#

They sell a g1/4 to 3mm to run them

#

But you're going to kill a g1/4 pump running only though 3mm

empty wren
#

I see, guess I need to look at something cheapish since most of what I saw look big

vagrant pagoda
#

I mean you need like a passive 120mm rad for a hotend

#

It's like under 100w lmao

#

Probably 40w?

empty wren
#

But honestly it might have to been stupid to buy the liquid cooled version, seems like it is a headache now to figure out what to use for it. I just wanted to get rid of all the fans on the x carriage.

old marlin
#

You can cool it too much lol

hard wadi
#

I just realized

#

wouldn't it technically be possible for steelseries keyboards with omnipoint switches to have a rapid trigger kind of function

old marlin
#

Yes

#

But last time they made such a feature you had to buy a new model

hard wadi
#

wait they did that already?

ashen spindle
#

so it was someone on sales clicking a pdf that was malware to steal session tokens and no 2fa/pw got broken

frozen ingot
#

from the description it sounded very much like a variant of the one described in this vid

#

those things are meticulously crafted

cursive summit
#

I remember reading about this a long time ago

#

The funny thing is

#

Adobe Acrobat guide literally teaches you how to add executable actions to your pdf document

zealous lake
#

ThioJoe literally made a video about this, last month.

ashen spindle
#

and linus mentions thio in the video

cursive summit
#

It's a years old issue

ashen spindle
#

eh, session token theft isnt that common years ago

cursive summit
#

Although, wasn't that common back then, yeah

#

But it existed and was a threat vector

ashen spindle
#

also lol ofc it would be steve from GN to first notify linus because that man never sleeps

cursive summit
#

That was funny too

#

Tech god / jesus saves everyone

frozen ingot

email scams/hacks being this well dressed and legit looking is not common

It’s nice how nowadays you can get a 4 layer pcb for 2$

I can respect the hustle

Honestly, clever criminals are respectable dogekek

shadow minnow
#

What?

cursive summit

The indian scams are just sad

It wasn't exactly my finest hour, but it does go to prove that anyone can be scammed if the circumstances are exactly right. There were a few unfortunate incidents just prior to this phishing email and I explain how I was convinced to delete my own YouTube channel.

Thank you so much for your continued support through all of this.

#

I love a genuinely well executed social engineering attack

#

Yes, they are malicious

#

But they are also beneficial to protect ourselves better

#

Indian scams make people lax

#

Good attacks make us think of protection

old marlin
#

also ffs that could have been MUCH MUCH worse

reef patrol
#

Linus explained that they use a tool to handle access to the different channels on YT and social media. Instead of giving everyone the same login.

old marlin
#

ah

reef patrol
#

BUT - They had failed to actually set the proper permissions.

old marlin
#

well ig I will watch the video later

ashen spindle
#

probably to get metrics from dashboard for sponsor deals since they need to know the numbers and you dont have great options to add limited accounts to only see certain things

reef patrol
#

So the end result was the same as giving everyone root access so to speak. Though YT also bears some fault for not requiring reauthentication for stuff like... mass changing videos, hiding stuff etc...

old marlin
#

I mean in the end the problem still is that youtube has no proper tools for bigger channels

ashen spindle
#

ya

old marlin
#

you basically have your one channel admin

#

and that is it

ashen spindle
#

and you dont get asked for type your pw in for renaming or changing stream key etc.

old marlin
ashen spindle
#

many easy things that they could add that would help big and small accounts alike

old marlin
#

which would be nice obv

#

but a big channel is just fucked

reef patrol
old marlin
#

oh yea

#

esp with a very large channel

#

should not be a thing

reef patrol
#

Linus is lucky he has a huge channel. I know several small creators who had to wait a week or so just to get the channel locked and fixed. That doesn't include the time to re-hide videos and all that.

old marlin
#

response time for that should be immediate for any channel over like 1 million

ashen spindle
#

it makes sense that big channels have priority because while obviously it hurts youtube more, it also reaches more potential victims than if randogamer69 suddenly shills bitcoin to 5 followers

frozen ingot
#

ngl for the extent of the hacks reach they got it sorted rather quickly imo

old marlin
ashen spindle
#

ya

reef patrol
old marlin
#

imo a channel should be locked down within minutes if it is of that size and changes that drastically

ashen spindle
#

oh yeah it's a mess

frozen ingot
#

I mean, if it happens at 3am in the heckin morning havo

reef patrol
#

And this is a big and obvious enough hack that you can literally go to youtube, search "Tesla" and filter by "live" to see a bunch of them.

ashen spindle
frozen ingot
#

sure there might be some staff around but am guessing LMG entire staff is stationed in NA

old marlin
ashen spindle
#

I get the argument dont make it annoying for users to use your service, but it's not like changing channel name or hiding thousands of videos is what a user does daily

#

ehh they are large enough that they should have IT for these cases

old marlin
#

I mean

ashen spindle
#

as a backup

old marlin
#

for the 3 channels that do

#

just make an override checkbox

ashen spindle
#

google should still do better

old marlin
#

that you need a password for

ashen spindle
#

ye

old marlin
#

only other brand that I am aware of that even has something like rapid trigger planned for a model is realforce lol

#

though theirs is much less granular

frozen ingot
#

so I got a pair of linkbuds s

cursive summit
#

@final flame

#

Might be interesting

cursive summit
#

Design looks exactly like 10$ chinese airpod knockoffs

shadow minnow
#

But it has trump on it

chrome estuary
rough osprey
#

only costs $25

#

so not that bad

final flame
#

Probably sounds even less than $25

rough osprey
#

oh Instagram says 25 but 35

#

weird

frozen ingot
#

the sonys sound quite nice for in-ears

#

good noise cancellation too, been sensitive to that pressure feel on other sets I've tried but none of that here

astral haven
#

ive heard the linkbuds s are basically the wf xm4 but with rubber tips instead of foam and smaller

frozen ingot
#

read things along those lines too, some users seem to even prefer the links

rough osprey
#

Samsungs are nice

frozen ingot
#

these are my first pair in like 2 decades havo got em for free due to an order mishap

#

its not something I'd normally look at buying

ashen spindle
#

SDK approach has a lot of good stuff that hopefully is easier to add now so we see it in more places

frozen ingot
#

I quite like the ambient mode, sounds a lot better than my cheapo sony bt over-ears

#

its nice being able to toggle between noise cancellation and ambient mode also

sharp badger
#

Is there any good "audiophile" wireless headphones? or will there ever be wireless headphones up to par with wired? 🤔

#

Focal Bathys would probably be one contender which would work good both Wireless and wired

fickle ore
#

I wish, I hate wired heaphones and I hate my wired IEM's too since I can't talk, it feels weird

#

tbh I cant use my wired iems, the cable is too short to go behind my pc

final flame
final flame
fickle ore
#

link plz

frozen ingot
#

there's plenty of great sounding wireless headphones nowadays

sharp badger
#

HiFiMan Deva might also be good?

final flame
frozen ingot
#

you'd have to go pretty darn high up cost-wise to reach the point where wired boutique phones outperforms the best wireless to any significant degree

final flame
#

Eh roon is overrated

#

It's a overpriced audio player, it does some cool stuff but not really worth the thousand dollars for a lifetime license

#

Imo musicbee is the best overall player

frozen ingot
#

still on foobar2k

final flame
#

I just use mp3tag

reef patrol
#

Winamp and MP3TAG ftw.

final flame
#

Foobar is good only if you don't need a gui interface with covers

#

If you have a bunch of music tagged in a different language you're screwed

#

Musicbee is okay for tagging, I prefer just doing it in mp3tag

#

Musicbee is most powerful with it's clean and very fast and optimized ui

#

You can also customize the UI in whatever way you want

#

My foobar is super slow due to the amount of music covers it'd have to load with my current theme

frozen ingot
#

I wish you could quick toggle what audio interface/output to use via keybinds, but that's about all I really miss in foobar

final flame
#

I memorize music by the cover

#

A good majority of my music is tagged in Japanese so yea, makes things easier with the covers

#

And I don't really feel like re ragging everything to be translated

#

Everything I have is organized by folder structure

#

Musicbee is also one of the few players that will still show album art when using folder structure

frozen ingot
#

I have it set up real basic, just playlist tabs listed by artist pretty much

#

I just F3 search whatever I want to hear for the moment dogekek

final flame
#

I just have mostly memorized where everything is in the grid of music covers

#

If I feel like it I could organize things by artist with my folder structure

empty wren
# old marlin You can cool it too much lol

If I got the air version I could have ran it passive, and to be fair heat is not a big concern since the heatbreak is ceramic partially. Even so though the heatsink is not ideal to receive no cooling since it is a block.

#

That seems weird

#

I had to download a different panel for the arc driver

reef patrol
#

If only nVidia and AMD could learn from this.

ashen spindle
#

they cant learn what doesnt apply to them though?

reef patrol
#

Their downloads are MASSIVE.

ashen spindle
#

they also have more content than intels drivers

empty wren
#

Which is what arc essentially is now

reef patrol
#

That is massive for what should be a couple of text files and a Windows XP era fucking UI 😄

#

You genuinely can't convince me it isn't 99.9% bloat.

empty wren
#

I mean could be smaller since there is audio driver even if you do not want it again

ashen spindle
#

uhh I think you dont quite understand what a driver does if you think it is even remotely that much bloat

reef patrol
#

Maybe we need to go back to driver downloads that are actually for - my actual model.

#

You know - That thing both nVidia and AMD specifically asks for anyway

astral haven
#

it highly depends on the complexity of the device

ashen spindle
#

that's not what it comes from either, it's because it needs to translate so many different things to work on the gpu, unlike cpus where the program has the correct code translation to x86 already

empty wren
final flame
astral haven
ashen spindle
#

ya, it needs to take the hlsl/glsl/etc. shit and translate it

reef patrol
#

Jesus fuck. nVidia's driver is 900 megs now

ashen spindle
#

with all different variations

astral haven
#

i downloaded em last week and they were 731MB

ashen spindle
#

otherwise you'd have to download new drivers for dx11 when you only had dx12 games before etc. and that would be a much bigger mess

reef patrol
#

532.41 is 853* something.

final flame
#

I haven't downloaded the latest yet

astral haven
empty wren
astral haven
#

newest i can get for this quadro

final flame
#

Newest usually just means fixes for very specific applications

reef patrol
#

And it unpacks to 2gigs 😄

final flame
#

Just check the changelog for each update

open fable
#

i have a question. is it posible to use a ANIS layout with german keys (so basicly the small enter key but every other key is the same as in the iso-de layout). srry for bad english

astral haven
#

yes because it has alot of highly compressed text files inside...

ashen spindle
#

ah so the classic one example that makes it a general thing

#

any big game has day1 drivers that are massive performance gains that are needed to even play it so you do want them

frozen ingot
empty wren
#

I never said it happens often just that sometimes it can make matters worse

open fable
#

oh fuk. i should have ordered the anis layout

ashen spindle
#

Most of time
sounds like it would happen often

open fable
#

thx tho

empty wren
ashen spindle
#

still just a bug you have which isn't the norm for driver updates lol

empty wren
#

Maybe newer Nvidia GPUs do not suffer

#

But I do remember when the 970 was new I did not really update the drivers for a long time and no issues

reef patrol
#

Surprising absolutely no one, Experience is almost half the download. Something you should be able to forgo the DOWNLOAD of.

ashen spindle
#

yes it doesnt break if you dont update obviously, you are just missing out on massive performance gains on new games

reef patrol
#

#oldManRanting

final flame
#

The only time I'll go out of my way to update a driver is if I start noticing issues, for example program refusing to function or visual glitches and artifacting

empty wren
#

Even more borked these days sadly

astral haven
#

730/900 is 80% nvm

#

yep so a significant majority of the space after extraction is taken up by various drivers

#

biggest one is optix which i guess you could not want, but the second largest is the drivers for directx

reef patrol
astral haven
#

🤷 i think you are confusing the installed size of gfe with the part that is included in the driver

reef patrol
#

I am comparing the folders that you're looking at in your screenshot.

astral haven
#

🤷 geforce experience download adds 127mb to the download

reef patrol
#

At any rate my point remains - Too much bloat that -my- GPU doesn't NEED. It may WANT it. But I shouldn't need to pre-download hundreds of megabytes "just in case" dogekek

fickle ore
#

Im fed up with NVDA as well

ashen spindle
astral haven
#

sure you can argue geforce experience isnt needed, but nvidia actually does need it, you can only get telemetry by getting people to opt in to it somehow...

#

amd learned the lesson of poor telemetry and has now fixed that

reef patrol
fickle ore
astral haven
#

you can and do

reef patrol
#

I have no option to not include experience.

astral haven
#

actually you do

#

all you downloaded was the downloader for experience

#

which yes is larger than it should be

reef patrol
#

Great.

fickle ore
#

hope dx9/10 dies fast

#

and dx11 too

#

intel can then compete better

astral haven
#

meh dxvk is an excellent solution to that problem

fickle ore
#

not competitive

astral haven
#

on average it is

#

and it saves them a significant amount of dev resources

fickle ore
#

And moving onto dx12 would save even more, no need to play catch up

#

Heck we could have more gpu vendors then

solemn remnant
fickle ore
#

Also I have to say, since I've been bitching about it for 5 yrs but since 3xxx gen Nvidia finally made MSI mode on by default

frozen ingot
#

does disk space really come at such a premium these days that you can't afford the extra space drivers take

fickle ore
#

Before that it was quaddro only

astral haven
solemn remnant

indeed

the DAV3 is nice though but idk maybe my grip style is weird

im betting the HTX might be a tad better in grip handling

#

Gwolves mice are really good for diff styles

latent mural
#

I just dont get why razer had to make that edge sharp and not circular

plush pasture
#

their R&D kind of had a weird instance on that i feel

GPX has a nice feel

Well prob not now. Might as wait for m3k

Nah man, they're niche products, m2s will be like what 800$

M3K will be more common I think

not a good look lol

with zaunkoenig it seems to be limited to just the blog posts that they use as creative writing exercises

my thoughts mainly centers around how all the dust, skin particles and hairs gets lit up and pops

My WiFi is decent right now but sometimes downstairs it has hiccups and I feel like I'm making it out.

I use stuff like moonlight a lot

#

And WiFi transfer isn't always super great

#

I want to in general redo my networking when I move room

#

It's a mess rn

astral haven
#

budget?

#

current wifi device?

fair gull
#

the whole wifi backhaul imo sucks for reliable fast network

astral haven
#

well mesh can be consistent

fair gull
#

id always use wired APs

astral haven
#

but you need a wired backhaul

fair gull
#

if you use wired backhaul just use normal aps

pale sigil
#

Wired APs are not that viable for me

#

:/

astral haven
fair gull
#

wireless mesh is the same dumb unfeasable moneygrab as wifiextenders

astral haven
#

except it works far better

fair gull
#

in my experience both suck

pale sigil
gusty kiln
#

even tri-bands?

pale sigil
#

The issue with wired is I can't exactly have wires going everywhere

fair gull
#

like the only reliable cost effective solution i know is normal wireless aps

astral haven
fair gull
#

mine has been the exact opposite

empty wren
pale sigil
astral haven
#

it does highly depend on the mesh type
and you absolutely want to wire up the maximum possible amount of devices

#

for my parents, the main ap (the router) is wired, the second ap is wired to the first, and the 3rd is wireless

empty wren
astral haven
#

the wired connection out of the 3rd device is excellent

pale sigil
#

So the issue is tbh is my mum

#

I was thinking about making an access point via powerline

fair gull
#

so you te her cables or shit wifi

tribal dirge
fair gull
#

easy as that

pale sigil
#

But I feel like my WiFi in general just can't max out much

astral haven
fair gull
#

why

#

you can drill through and fireproof again

I only have 2 meshes here, but locally they go like 800mb which is fine

now go check em all

my speed is around 550-600 Mbps and i usually download from steam around 45-55
