car audio folks do crazy bs

vagrant pagoda
#

fuses arent that big

#

they are just pricey

#

if the are real

vagrant pagoda
#

you can get 1000a in 1/2 inch format

#

yeah

#

bussmann 1000a 1/2 size fuse is only $175

#

but yeah

#

200kaic at 150v ac

#

20kaic at 150v dc

astral haven
#

no shot our friend here has a mains 1kamp breaker tho
literally a quarter megawatt

vagrant pagoda
#

lmao

#

they dont even make 120v breakers that high

astral haven
#

i mean you can just use a 600v breaker on a 120 circuit

vagrant pagoda
#

but its going to be a 3p

astral haven
#

sure thats fine

#

i think?

vagrant pagoda
#

dont think its code

astral haven
#

no shit 🀣

vagrant pagoda
#

because i dont think they are rated with only 2p

astral haven
#

gotta be?

vagrant pagoda
#

2p loaded would be a fault

astral haven
#

nah

vagrant pagoda
#

but the largest ive seen in 2p is 400a

astral haven
#

for huge residential you will often be given 208 from 2/3 p

vagrant pagoda
#

im sure someone will engieer a tandom kit for it

#

yeah

#

but they alternate the phases for each tenet

#

and they use 2p breakers

#

you can but a 3 phase panel 2p breaker

astral haven
#

you could easily end up with a pattern of apartments left empty that leaves one of the phases unloaded

vagrant pagoda
#

it isnt that its going to break the breaker

#

its that it isnt code

astral haven
#

why?

vagrant pagoda
#

you cant run a single condutor to a 2p breaker

#

i dont think you can run 2p to a 3p

#

because they arent rated for it techically

#

even though they are literally seperate breakers internally

#

same reason you cant technically just stick a 6/32 between to breakers and call it a 2p

astral haven
#

no like

#

you have items wired into each phase

#

but coincidentally only items on 2 of the 3 phases are running at the moment

vagrant pagoda
#

oh that is fine

#

im saying code wise

#

i dont think anyone rates a 3p for 2p use

#

and if it is explictedly rated

#

its no no

#

no one rates a tandam for single phase loads

#

so you cant do that

#

will it work

#

sure

astral haven
#

im pretty sure that it would just trip at 1/3 the current?

vagrant pagoda
#

same current

#

1/3 power

#

you could literally pop of the handle connector and use it as 3 single breakers

#

but that would violate code too

astral haven
#

i highly suspect that as long as everything was actually wired up and the individual items themselves met code you would be allowed to wire it up

#

say you run a laundramat and you have 60 dreyers on 208
you could theoretically have up to 20 of them running without any load on the 3rd phase

#

(while still meeting code i assume)

#

now good luck getting enough service to run 60 industrial dryers but its theoretically possible?

No, I am getting a Wooting

why not both?

Only can use one keeb at a time

one for gaming and one for typing lol

Guess they pushed a new update for "some" YT users. Hopefully they catch back up soon πŸ˜„

severe phoenix

Yeah

Maybe they need a Wooting to speed things along πŸ˜›

Someone's Void, which released like 4-5 months back, turned yellow

#

They are white

thick elk
#

White ABS + UV light

cursive summit
#

Never seen that word

thick elk
#

In general though white plastic is best kept out of direct sunlight, it can yellow rather fast

#

Unless they use some other plastic than abs

cursive summit
#

I have never heard anyone even use or discuss the reddit API

reef patrol
#

I assume it's used for those dreadful autobots?

but unless the sun only was shining on that spot it's not probably

my bet is just grime KEKW

I use Variety on Linux to change wallpaper everyday and I pull the images from Reddit

cursive summit
#

Wtf are automatic wallpaper changers

wheat plume
#

.-. ;-;

#

Once a day to get a single image, unless you manually tell it to change wallpaper

#

but not anymore if you need to pay for API usage now

#

oh?

#

ye

#

wait... this will affect third party clients

#

Like Sync or Infinite

#

I think

#

Maybe only if you are logged into them

#

Yeah :/ same but I really dont want to

#

the official client is garbage .-.

ashen spindle
#

please just read more than the headline of an article before you come to conclusions on what changes lol

wheat plume
#

I am reading it

#

I rejected the cookies on that link and it took me to the website homepage

ashen spindle

then you clicked on something else

wheat plume

can you not browse the article without allowing cookies?

rough osprey

wheat plume
#

I got rid of this language bar on desktop
But it still shows up on the fucking login screen

#

I have only ONE language and ONE keyboard layout installed
It shouldn't be showing up

cursive summit
#

This on windows or what

#

That doesn't look like an out of the box feature, I don't recall ever seeing that

wheat plume
#

Windows yeah

cursive summit
#

Lana, sunshine

#

Don't get this wrong but

#

Why are you enabling random features that are off by default

wheat plume
#

this is default

cursive summit
#

That is not default

wheat plume
#

yes it is

cursive summit
#

Which OS

#

11?

wheat plume
#

this is legit a clean install

#

Yeah

cursive summit
#

I have no clue about 11 honestly

#

But that should not be on by default

wheat plume
#

its on by default in the taskbar too

#

this shit

#

but you can turn it off by turning this ON

#

oddly enough

#

this is not a new 11 feature

#

this is an old ass window

#

and it doesnty do anythign cause this is the only language installed

#

so idk why it shows

ashen spindle
#

english ireland but english US as display language might be enough for it to show in some places?

#

idk I'm getting the feeling we had that topic some weeks ago already

crimson wigeon
#

Yup

#

It's part of the loop

#

You actually got the glasses huh

#

I wish I could use them, but I use glasses already

gusty kiln
#

They come with an insert for prescription lens

#

Rokid have a glasses that have eye adjustments built in

#

Hm interesting

gusty kiln
#

Range of 0.00D to 6.00D

#

How bad are your eyes?

final flame
#

I'm pretty sure within that

#

I posted my prescription in here a while ago

gusty kiln
#

I'm glad/surprised I don't need glasses with the amount of screens I've been staring at my whole life.

#

Both my sister and my mom have trouble with near sight

vagrant pagoda
#

I love nreal

#

But I can't use them alm the time right now

#

Don't have enough display outs

#

Should be doing am5 soon ish

gusty kiln
#

Ooooooo

vagrant pagoda
#

And my goal is nreal via igpu

Yeab

I run fanless cpu

In a torrent

gusty kiln

Keeping most of the build the same?

vagrant pagoda
#

5800x3d dose fine

vagrant pagoda
#

Issue is

#

Only like one board meets my sepcs

#

And it's msi

gusty kiln
#

Kek

vagrant pagoda
#

I want usb4

gusty kiln
#

I'm going to stay loyal to asrock atm

vagrant pagoda
#

And a type c that will directly connect nreal

#

I want to

#

Maybe they will make a new razer

#

I love the black

#

My case is black

gusty kiln
#

Or evga x670

vagrant pagoda
#

And everything is black other than the p1

gusty kiln
#

Shame since noctua does have the ability to make black coolers

vagrant pagoda
#

The x670 itachi only has display over usb4 and hdmi

#

Which is why I demoted it

gusty kiln
#

Rip

vagrant pagoda
#

Don't want to use the USB 4 for the nreal

#

Or anything else

gusty kiln
#

My 2080 has usbc out

#

Hope it is plug and play

vagrant pagoda
#

Dose it do data too?

#

Like USB data

gusty kiln
#

Not sure haven't tried

#

But it is meant for VR

#

So probably

#

Weird how usbc were the rage on gpu one year and now it's all but gone

#

The MBA cards have them

vagrant pagoda
#

I mean my 1080ti have internal hdmi

#

For front panel vive lol

"newest generation is better than any generation before!"

uh, yeah it better be

thick elk
#

Intel 11th gen, Bulldozer, netburst: pepesweat

astral haven
#

teeeeechnically all of those did have some advantage over the previous gen lol

#

besides 11th gen they just lost painfully to their competitors previous gen

thick elk
#

Bulldozer lost to their previous gen 6 cores

astral haven
severe phoenix
#

Bulldozer was a big ol joke

astral haven
thick elk
#

It did indeed get some wins but yea normalizing for power consumption

astral haven
#

insano power usage, and extremely thermally sensitive

#

the bigger problem was it was just outright worse than core

#

by such a large gap that it wasnt even comparable

thick elk
#

Also this was vs sandy bridge at stock where the release was very close to ivy bridge

astral haven
#

yup

thick elk
#

Actually never mind that much the two were still half a year apart

#

must be misremembering things

astral haven
thick elk
#

Also it was almost criminal not to oc ivy / sandy bridge

#

my 3570k happily went to 4.7ghz

#

sandy bridge could often do 5ghz

astral haven
#

yeeteroni

wheat plume
#

uh

#

What you up to there, XDA?

#

oh, leaked engineering 7A's went on sale to Ebay LOL

#

but not before Google pushed an OTA that bricked them xd

vagrant pagoda
#

Thuban had better single thread and 6 thread

#

Bulldozer had better in the middle

#

But with the same power limits you could push a Thuban harder

#

4ghz wasn't much for a 1090/1100t

#

Without needing full custom water like a bulldozer at 4ghz lol

#

I went from 1090t to 4790k

#

Because amd didn't get better lol

astral haven
#

if only you had waited another 6? years to upgrade they would eventually lmao

#

wait no 4790k so 4 years

vagrant pagoda
#

Yeah I went from 4790k to 5900x then 5800x3d lol

#

I still love that board

#

Z97 SOC

astral haven
#

5775c goated

astral haven
#

the ln2 variant is goated

#

didnt get one myself tho bc im a pleb who wants ram capacity

vagrant pagoda
#

Still have mine in my media server lol

#

Water-cooled

#

The force had 4 dimm

astral haven
#

force ln2 was 2 dimm

#

but yea i have the 4 dimm force

vagrant pagoda
#

There as SOC, SOC force and SOC force ln2 lol

astral haven
#

yeep

#

notice the main reason this one is undailyable?

vagrant pagoda
#

Yeah I had the force with the ekwb kit

astral haven
#

look carefully to see what may be missing

vagrant pagoda
#

?

#

It's just 2 dimm

astral haven
#

no theres 1 gigantic change besides that

vagrant pagoda
#

I know they don't have mounting holes

#

But you could daily it

astral haven
#

yeeep 🀣

#

gigantic pita tho

vagrant pagoda
#

I mean it would be for ln2 too

#

No mounting force

astral haven
#

🀷 get a bigger pot lmao

vagrant pagoda
#

Itx mounting hole pattern XD

astral haven
#

?

vagrant pagoda
#

The mobo holes l

astral haven
#

oh shoot yea wheres the middle screwhole

vagrant pagoda
#

Also pretty sure they used socket mount

#

Ie remote the ilm and used a contact frame with pot mount

#

I was almost right

astral haven
#

janky stuff like this just doesnt happen any more 😦

vagrant pagoda
#

Ilm stays

astral haven
#

ye
the socket holes are there

vagrant pagoda
#

I mean the ilm is there XD

astral haven
#

yea its very jank

vagrant pagoda
#

PCB mount ilm would be fancy though

astral haven
#

sounds like an easy way to pull up traces

vagrant pagoda
#

Yeah

astral haven
#

what id really like to see is someone go mental and make a ceramic ln2 motherboard

vagrant pagoda
#

Wouldny you worry about thermal shock?

#

Miss the pot with the torch and she's done

astral haven
#

🀷 it was fine for ibm and they use chillers on those 2-3kw cpus

vagrant pagoda
#

I think a built in socket heater would be better

astral haven
#

eh why not both

vagrant pagoda
#

Yeah but chiller is constant temp

#

Ln2 oc isn't constant temp

astral haven
#

when the cpus load down, the temp rises drastically extremely fast probably

#

also gotta remember ceramic is actually insanely thermally stable

#

most fire bricks are ceramics of some kind

vagrant pagoda
#

Yeah but ln2 you go from -200 to blow torch

astral haven
#

🀷 i think you are thinking of the ceramics you make in elementary school

vagrant pagoda
#

I have rf ceramic pcbs

astral haven
#

have you tried ln2 cooling them lmao

#

also fiberglass is absolutely incapable of handling actual blowtorch temps...

vagrant pagoda
#

I mean you need a few seconds to get to normal after ln2 with the torch

astral haven
#

sure but thats pointed inside the pot

#

not literally at the pcb itself

14 pro buggy mess

astral haven
#

saj

#

we havent really noticed that here and weve got a few users on ip14p

ashen spindle
#

well warren buffet will be happy if it were a buggy mess

#

assuming his idea is still that he hopes for apple stock to crash so he can buy more lol

astral haven
#

🀷 dunno if that will even crash the stock

ashen spindle
#

no but if it were then apple would probably have some bigger issues to let that slip

thick elk
#

Still these types of issues are especially bad for apple, as it's basically the go-to argument for getting an apple device

astral haven
#

the ekocystem

thick elk
#

Ah yes apple jail

south maple
#

Lol

thick elk
#

To be fair I use a poco x3 pro (rooted) with a custom rom so there is that

#

I am just not the target audience for apple products

astral haven
#

and we get iphones for 99c as a business

fickle ore
#

Applepay 4.15% interest

#

with about 6* asterix

ashen spindle
#

apple pay is just the next step to them legally owning you

fickle ore
#

is the 4.15% rate available in EU

astral haven
#

and goldmann is trying to get tf out of that deal

fickle ore
#

would be pog NGL

ashen spindle
#

yeah their bank partners made such a massive loss with apple cards and all so far lol

astral haven
fickle ore
#

they pay 4.15% interest on ur savings acctg

astral haven
#

oh yea

#

is that part of apple pay tho?

fickle ore
#

idk probably not in eu

astral haven
#

hunh

#

wow thats even higher than goldmann sach's native marcus savings

fickle ore
#

yes GS has 3.9 % iirc

ashen spindle
#

US only yeah

fickle ore
#

but there are 10 asterix's on that apple thing

#

one is maximum cap so prob like 5k or less dogekek

ashen spindle
#

250k limit

astral haven
#

yea ive got over 3% myself 250k limit like usual

#

250k limit is the us banking limit normally

fickle ore
ashen spindle
#

GS europe is smart enough to not partner for this lol

marsh glade
#

If you have more than 250k in cash or cash equivalents you'd just park it in a money market fund directly

astral haven
fickle ore
#

yeah afaik market funds or bonds are yielding over 5% rn

astral haven
#

bonds are way higher atm

fickle ore
#

but I dont follow US rates that much

ashen spindle
#

yay, let money sit around and gain less than inflation, always fun

marsh glade
#

Fidelity and Schwab are both offering 4.5+%

fickle ore
#

For EU, my savings acct offers a 3% - 0.5% yield so basically ~2.5% yield, which is just garbage and I'll keep buying stocks

astral haven
#

currently everyone in the us can buy 20k in bonds that are currently yielding 6.9% for inflation adjusted bonds

fickle ore
#

@ashen spindle we will never FIRE in EU 😦

gusty kiln
#

Ooff

ashen spindle
#

idk what that means

#

paris riots everyday it feels like with fire

#

Financial independence, retire early

gusty kiln
#

Financially independent retire early

astral haven

should have just been born 50 years earlier lol

ashen spindle
#

just gamble and become millionair?

Lifestyle creep is one of the biggest challenges for some people

Just buy all the numbers ezpz

fickle ore
#

gf wont 10€ on her first try, dafuq

ashen spindle
#

but once you get rich you start thinking about needing even more millions to avoid nuclear winter and self sustain forever and all mm

#

so the safer you are the more you start to worry mm

astral haven
#

that issue got fixed tho lol

gusty kiln
#

Kekekek

ashen spindle
#

honestly a bit surprised at that

fickle ore
#

Everyone keeps saying lottery isn't worth statistically, but it is

#

Idiots!

ashen spindle
#

since that means you need money to make money lol

#

so it only shafted the poors once again

#

so why did they not keep it, fits in the US xD

gusty kiln
#

Just get a large loan

#

Ezpz

astral haven
ashen spindle
#

just wait for the lottery to be so massive you win even if you buy every single possible combination

fickle ore
#

Tho 2€ per week is my max

astral haven
#

ive yet to actually buy a lottery ticket

fickle ore
#

Probably not worth it in US for tech ppl that can FI/RE without gambling and risking getting addicted

ashen spindle
#

honestly dont buy tickets for 2€ a week put them into random stocks or crypto and you are more likely to have hit the next bitcoin in 10 years lol

astral haven
#

different risk vs reward

gusty kiln
#

I need to put more money into my stock account

astral haven
#

even if you hit a bitcoin, gains are higher by winning the lottery

fickle ore
ashen spindle
#

fair enough

astral haven
gusty kiln
#

I'm looking into a lot of things including bonds

#

there's also CDs

#

But not as much as bonds

marsh glade
#

I mean if you're going to gamble then do it right.... Aim for 1.5% return per week day trading stocks, 6% per month, turns $1,000 into $1,000,000 in ten years

#

ez

ashen spindle
#

what about gambling by investing into mark and hoping you get steaks as annual returns

gusty kiln
#

The goal is to have 1.5-2m in a savings account and just live off the interests

astral haven
#

thats not enough lmao

fickle ore
#

It's very much doable if you lean fire

#

imo

#

just gotta live in OHIO or somewhere

gusty kiln
#

Yeah life style matters

fickle ore
#

and own a house

gusty kiln
#

No more high end pc parts

astral haven
#

yea gotta own property no morgage before that amount can be enough

fickle ore
#

But yeh thats the dream Jacona, tryna do that myself

#

I could live in EU for a lot less. Prob 500k

ashen spindle
#

even then maybe not because out need insurance + repair bills etc. unless you want to work on it all yourself

fickle ore
#

and live off the dividends

gusty kiln
#

1.5-2m is just a minimum value i set

#

3-4m would be comfty

fickle ore
#

God america sucks, I saw some guy budgeting about 25k per year for medicals in fire reddit

astral haven
gusty kiln
#

Ooofff

marsh glade
astral haven
#

but series i bonds are quite limited in your yearly purchase amount, you basically have to buy them every year for 10 years to hold a bunch

astral haven
fickle ore
astral haven
#

when the interest rate was actually zero i was getting 1% from it

ashen spindle
#

conclusion, just be parts of the .1%

astral haven
#

you actually dont need that tbh

gusty kiln
#

Yeah

fickle ore
#

Nah, start investing in ur 20's and you'll be a millionaire when ur old

astral haven
#

yup

ashen spindle
#

yeah but at the current rate millionair means nothing anymore by then dogekek

fickle ore
marsh glade
#

Just find a nice stable tech company and join in the sweetspot after they've created a strong foundation but before their hockeystick moment and ride that wave all the way to FIRE πŸ˜›

astral haven
#

thats not how tech companies operate any more unfortunately
at least not in the us

gusty kiln
#

Yeah

fickle ore
#

Even better join the future apple when theyre startup and get compensated with employee stock grants

gusty kiln
#

Early 90s-00 was the best time

#

$$$$$$$

fickle ore
#

I miss the 90's man

#

prob bc I was kid

gusty kiln
#

Kek

#

Same

ashen spindle
#

I think mark was speaking about himself joining wooting at a maybe good time dogekek

gusty kiln
astral haven
#

wooting isnt in the us lol

gusty kiln
#

Well he only said tech

#

Didn't specify county

astral haven
#

tru

gusty kiln
#

Tech startups must be risky now with SVB tanking

#

At least on the west coast

astral haven
#

nah

#

fdic stepped in and guaranteed them

gusty kiln
#

Oh yeah

astral haven
#

they held literally no assets that gain value with inflation

#

and they were also a relatively small bank

marsh glade
#

Sure sent some ripples through the industry

#

They're all good now though

astral haven
#

yea, but larger banks arent allowed to make that sort of mistake

#

the fdic had stepped in by monday

marsh glade
#

Queen Yellen didn't say that all deposits would be covered for a solid week

astral haven
#

the bank collapsed on friday and the fdic made 250k available on monday

marsh glade
#

250k is peanuts if you've got payroll coming up

astral haven
#

thats enough to run most businesses for long enough to make 1 pay period

#

and the issue was resolved in half a pay period

#

besides if you have a staff of 20+ people you should be using more than 1 bank in the us

marsh glade
#

That has to be considered on a cost benefit continuum where the prevailing mindset prior to SVB's collapse was to optimize for cost, which has now shifted towards optimizing for risk

pale sigil
#

Hmm, where would y'all hide an apple tag in a bike

#

Do you think making an insert will fuck with the frame

gusty kiln
#

Bottom of one of the pedals

dusk spire
#

you could also try in one of your handle bars if they are large enough

final flame
#

You want to place it in a place where nobody will find it

#

If it's a electric bike it'd be easier

reef patrol
#

Inside of the hollow frame.

marsh glade
#

Yea I'm with Anders

#

Everything else can be stolen

#

On the gear mechanism is too obvious

final flame
#

What about in the tire

reef patrol
#

Challenge: Getting police to actually care even if you can pinpoint a mass theft to an address.

dusk spire
#

could come loose in the tire and rattle around maybe

reef patrol
#

We've had some cases where people have had to go full vigilante to rescue bikes.

pale sigil
#

My original idea was to saw out a small part of the bottom frame

#

Insert/glue then weld it back

dusk spire
#

probably go with the frame idea

pale sigil
#

Police are useless

gusty kiln
#

Homies with shanks

Getting your bike stolen is a rite of passage here

final flame
#

Homies with Saul Goodman

pale sigil
#

Thing is Im wanting to build my own

#

But also get my own motor etc etc

#

For the tire when I want breaks

dusk spire
#

if youre building your own maybe design a small container that you can remove for the tag

marsh glade
#

Wait motor? Are we not talking bicycle?

dusk spire
#

in case it breaks or just stops working youd want to be able to replace it

pale sigil
#

Yes bicycle

gusty kiln
#

Just get 2 hover boards and a 2x4

pale sigil
#

Also I had someone who was going to help me out but he died in a fire

gusty kiln

Ezpz

pale sigil
#

RIP

dusk spire
#

true

#

my buddies and i basically did that in HS we took a scooter motor and build a shitty car out of 2x4s

We're talking past each other here.

heic is absolutely not included with 11.
the free plugin does not work on 11.
the paid one works - but is paid.

I'd buy that for a dollar

or rather not

vagrant pagoda

11 dosent need a plugin

#

It has support for hevc and heif built in

Windows 10 needs the hevc $1 add on AND heif addon to view heif

And yet none of my stock 11 installs can read heic.

How odd πŸ˜›

When did you check?

reef patrol

... now

vagrant pagoda

And how out of date are they

And weeks ago the last time we had this discussion.

vagrant pagoda

Because the November update added it to 11

reef patrol
#

22H2 doesn't have it on any of my machines. Just checked on all of them.

Told to pay a buck for it.

I don't personally use 11 so can't vouch for it, but you can always try

vagrant pagoda

Odd I haven't paid for it and it works

#

Wait

And now we've come full circle to the free plugin that I already explained doesn't work πŸ˜„

vagrant pagoda
#

Do you have a video player installed?

reef patrol
#

Several.

vagrant pagoda
#

Maybe I have a different hevc installed that's free?

#

And heif works by default now

reef patrol
#

Don't have any issues with HEVC as I am not using it. I am having issues opening heic photos πŸ˜„

solemn remnant
#

there's the powershell fix part

vagrant pagoda
#

You know that heif is hevc

reef patrol
#

ANYWAY I fixed it by installing a heic reader.

reef patrol
vagrant pagoda
#

You need a hevc decoder to view heif

solemn remnant
#

and you need both

vagrant pagoda
#

Heif is just single frame video

#

And apple uses hevc

reef patrol
#

What a godawful way to do compression. But it's Apple. Wouldn't have expected any less.

vagrant pagoda
#

You should try a avc heif and see if it opens

reef patrol
#

#

.heic doesn't open. End of line.
Downloaded a .heic viewer and that's all I needed.

vagrant pagoda
#

Apple didn't invent heif

#

Mpeg did

#

Apple just decided to use non free hevc

vagrant pagoda
#

Av1 heif could open on your 11 installs

reef patrol
#

So let's reiterate this conversation.

22H2 doesn't have heic reading on any of my PCs. The free plugin does shit all, the paid plugin is paid.

#

Moving on.

solemn remnant
#

stubbornness

vagrant pagoda
#

No 22g2 has heif not hevc

reef patrol
#

You can keep repeating yourself - It doesn't make it any more readable here πŸ˜„

vagrant pagoda
#

22h2 can view heif if it's a free encoded image.

#

But not if it's non free ie 265

reef patrol
#

Cool. Since they don't come prelabeled I will have to assume literally every iPhone uses non-free.
Moving on with my day.

vagrant pagoda
#

Before that you needed the heif and hevc packages

#

Yes Apple uses 265

#

For images and videos by default

#

And I don't think there's a way to change it

solemn remnant
vagrant pagoda
#

But either at Nokia or Sony is the one that invented heif

#

Many original version did not use 265

#

They used av1

#

Apple in their infinite wisdom decided to use a non-free codec to compress the images by a few kilobytes on a device that has 100 GB of space

Because apple hates the free stuff

odd thing to me is that it seems to only be with the RGB on the wooting specificallyt

if its xlr its a pretty decent mic so makes sense it pics up stuff like this

well yes we know its an issue as we have a pretty big powerdraw due to HE and rgb

other HE keybpards with super bright leds will encounter the same issues id assume

i'm just glad i even vaguely know why its happening now. i used microphone monitoring, so that's another reason i heard it. removing it completely got rid of the feedback
