[frozen ingot]

which is a bit silly

I'm using 1600

[stoic thorn]

what games do you play

[sacred sleet]

Apex legends exclusively, with .8 sens

[stoic thorn]

does seem very high for apex

[left grail]

Also played for 800 but switching now to 3200. for modern games like Valorant it's no problem but I'm afraid to start boomer games where even 800 dpi is too much

[frozen ingot]

huh

[stoic thorn]

here is the top players

there dpi do go to 1000 sometimes

[frozen ingot]

I got used to high sens in boomer shooters

[stoic thorn]

same

quake was

my drug

[frozen ingot]

like quake and unreal tournament

[stoic thorn]

going 1000 miles a hour rocket bhoping then railing some dudes head off

gad damn

[left grail]

I switched to 3200dpi and ingame sense in Valorant is 0.06 or so

[frozen ingot]

yeah arena shooters is where you wanted high sens for fast combat where pinpoint accuracy wasn't super important

but rather being able to do a 180 instantly

[sacred sleet]

I used to have an insane high sense

Then I realized I could actually control recoil if I wasn’t moving my mouse a millimeter every time I wanted to do a tap strafe 😂

[stoic thorn]

fortnite had me having crazy dpi and senses for a while

[gusty kiln]

Aim>>> movement

Though my sense is still kinda mid-high

800@2

[frozen ingot]

well that depends a lot on game

[ashen spindle]

weird clicking noises, shit focus, how is every billion dollar company incapable of having decent audio and streams for their telcos and streams

like please hire some people that use your tools for broadcasts ffs

[fickle ore]

she is banging.. her hands togehter. Flexing those metal rings onto each other

[gusty kiln]

[ashen spindle]

no it happens when she doesnt move too

[astral haven]

broadcast folks are expensive

[ashen spindle]

I dont care, hire a single person that can use rtx voice or anything and knows how to make a good camera focus

hell get an intern for it

if its money they could hold this all remote and save even more

[fickle ore]

Lol the production thinks Genoa = Jenna on substitles

XD

[astral haven]

rtx voice isnt quite broadcast quality and doesnt run on amd hardware
amds voice bs is super awful and nowhere near useable for broadcast

[fickle ore]

WHO IS THIS GUY

[ashen spindle]

that's just the most simple thing I could think of, the other option is to not put shit mics wherever they pic this sound up from lol

[astral haven]

this sounds like a classical music hall using the room mics

even tho lisa is wearing a lav mic

absolute disgrace

is he micced? not sure

[ashen spindle]

at least this time I'm not getting the feeling that the ceo is getting dementia live on stage

[astral haven]

lol

[fickle ore]

this guy is making me zone out

doesnt even mention AI

even stock went -0.6%

[snow moon]

Meta on stage? Stonks?

[snow moon]

@pale sigil this live stream

[pale sigil]

Ah

[astral haven]

ew dinosaur juice

avoid a hummer and itll charge overnight

and not a single one ever has a gas station

never had a problem myself

if the gas station is a 5 minute drive away, it can take close to a half an hour to get in and out

yea, most of the time im dealing with company vehicles, so its not my money that gets spent

company card

no clue

we are instructed to never press the rewards button

dunno
we are nonprofit so its probably a different story

🤷 i dont do the accounting
i just write what im said to write on the receipt and send it to transportation department

what do you mean

oh yea ive seen that

what about it?

yea our ceo writes a report for the board that has a bunch of that info except significantly more digestible
and at least i as an employee have access, dunno if its public

[final flame]

now this is just fucking ridiculous

I signed up yesterday to facebook for my job

[empty wren]

Huh

[sharp badger]

ETA Prime had a similiar video but with the Radeon 6850 XT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mm6w_X5-55o

Steam deck or ROG Ally, which one would people here choose?

[gleaming oak]

I have a steam deck. Really good bang for your buck

[ashen spindle]

if you need more battery the deck, if more power the ally, assuming the screen specs of the deck work for you

[astral haven]

that will come to the ally soonish

wont be as polished as official valve but there are projects en route already

[cursive summit]

There is no 6850XT?

[gusty kiln]

6850xt is an egpu unit from asus

[astral haven]

Welcome to mobile radeon

[wheat plume]

Steam Deck:

• Better controls
• Better software integration with the hardware
• Constant quality updates
• RELATIVELY great battery life
• Cannot play some AAA multiplayer games because the devs don't want it to

• Runs more efficiently below 15w than the Ally so better performance and battery life

Ally

• Windows : all games run (in theory)
• More powerful than Deck above 15 watt, at expense of battery life
• Windows: got to deal with all the tinkering and shit

• Worse controls than Deck, no touchpads for desktop use or for radial menus in games that need a lot of keybindings

[sharp badger]

https://rog.asus.com/external-graphic-docks/rog-xg-mobile-2022-model/ This didn't type the M out but yeah

[wheat plume]

That only runs on some Asus devices and not upgradable
And costs 2-3 times the price of the Ally itself

[sharp badger]

Yeah

[astral haven]

Battery life is unknown btw
Asus has released a fix
And the windows touch keyboard is far better than valves

[wheat plume]

The windows one doesn't have dual touchpad typing!

Which is the best shit ever

[astral haven]

Yeah 😦

Well it does have a split touch keyboard but I dunno the ergonomics on the ally

[empty wren]

Sounds like a fun trial

[astral haven]

I can't reach the screen on the deck with my thumbs

[gleaming oak]

I have huge hands so this isn't a problem for me.

[ocean kelp]

did anyone recive their keyboard early? just orderd mine im not getting it before august mid

[sharp badger]

That front display is really interesting, quite usable, just wished that there would've been some Zoom lens but with that form factor it's a bit difficult to achieve i guess

[empty wren]

You mean like 5xor10x

[ocean kelp]

can u answer my question pls

[empty wren]

[ocean kelp]

did anyone recive their wooting earlier than it said when u orderd

[sharp badger]

Yeah, optical

[empty wren]

If you look at the batch information

You will get your answer

Last person in the previous batch if they ordered recently

Probably will get it much more soon than you

[hasty elm]

How to find answer

[empty wren]

Maybe next time they can use a ultrawide main then crop and include the telephoto 3 lenses with 3 sensors seem excess

[ocean kelp]

i need it my keyboard is ass

tried my friends and it feels 1000x better

[gleaming oak]

Patience is virtue

[sharp badger]

Yeah would like to have something like that

[ocean kelp]

wooting was like doing molly

jk

wasnt that good

[gleaming oak]

I had to wait about the same amount of time before I got mine.

[empty wren]

Ideally if they can somehow turn the parascope camera into an ultra wide that would be even better

Like when Samsung had dual aperture that was pretty cool

And likely would not break before the phone gets replaced

[astral haven]

A wide becomes an ultra wide with a panorama
Nothing can create more real zoomed in detail

[empty wren]

Well google can do good 2x

But it ends there

[astral haven]

That's using sensor trickery even lol
And it doesn't create detail it just makes it easier to notice

[empty wren]

Alright then

[sharp badger]

Yeah that front screen on the Razr+ is quite usable

[empty wren]

I imagine maybe in time that screen will be full

[sharp badger]

Yeah wonder if the Samsung flip 5 will implement something new

[empty wren]

They could honestly

But quality will still look bad

Still better than the under screen front camera though

That reminds me of we had more rollable phone display these days

The screen could roll in

And then the cameras could have clear quality

[sharp badger]

Would be bad if Samsung release a bigger front screen and only support some Samsung apps the Motorola would win that battle then

[astral haven]

Oh also the internal selfie camera can be a high quality ultra wide, and you can still use it perfectly with the flipping

[thick elk]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoIcv0WZ6IU
This channel is just too satisfying to watch,
Even if the end result really isn't that great

[wheat plume]

from reviews I saw, its similar to the Deck but your arms are turned at an angle similar to holding an xbox controller

[empty wren]

Okay so essentially then the recipe would need to be a main camera that can also pericope and ultra wide selfie

[astral haven]

why?

[empty wren]

Is it really necessary to have so many cameras on the back and also the camera quality will likely vary

[astral haven]

main camera would be a standard 24mm "wide"
secondary cam would be 100mm+ telephoto
selfie cam would be <16mm ultrawide

[empty wren]

Alright I guess

[astral haven]

what Id really like is a 14-25mm zoom main with macro capabilities, a 50-100mm standard zoom, and a 200-400 super zoom
and then a standardish 14mm selfie cam

but that aint happening

[empty wren]

I too would like a good macro

[astral haven]

ive got a pretty nice macro
but the utility is really not that great...

[empty wren]

How many mp

[astral haven]

uh
12

[empty wren]

Whoah

[astral haven]

but thats not the important spec

[empty wren]

I guess

[astral haven]

all that matters is reproduction ratio (.2 or something for mine)
and sensor size

[empty wren]

I got good use of mine but I wish it could have more zoom ability

[astral haven]

a 5mp 1 inch sensor with 1:1 reproduction would be hella good

[empty wren]

That reminds me did htc had some lower mp count sensors but the photos were good

[astral haven]

the macro is slightly better than the main but not by a crazy amount

and you have much more pain with lighting

[empty wren]

Looks a bit out of focus on the second photo for sure

[astral haven]

may have gotten a bit too close on the macro lens

[empty wren]

That is a good one

Actually would it be stupid to use a telephoto as a macro?

[astral haven]

its hard to take the exact same picture lol

[empty wren]

Yep

[astral haven]

the longer the focal length, the further the lens element needs to move for focus

[empty wren]

Crap

[astral haven]

would work but youd have less zoom

all professional macro lenses are somewhat telephoto

[empty wren]

Okay then

I guess the best macro would be a built in microscope in the phone then lol

[astral haven]

🤷 microscopes need tons of light

[empty wren]

Right I should know that

How about a periscope

On a wire

[astral haven]

what

[empty wren]

This silly thing

My bad

Endoscope

[astral haven]

lol

[empty wren]

😄

Yeah that is meant for distance not close up

The endoscope however

[astral haven]

id prefer to just have a usb c one

infrared too

thats another super fun one

[empty wren]

Mmm yes I gotta get a thermal camera sometime

[astral haven]

infiray is selling real highish res 24fps infrared usb c cameras for very cheap

[empty wren]

I think CAT also has a phone with one

[astral haven]

yea but its really low res and 12 fps?

[empty wren]

Ah a shame

[wheat plume]

I wonder what percentage of Americans know what the clutch pedal in a car is

[astral haven]

tends towards 100% for the 60+ and tends towards probably 30% in the 20s
and 0% at 0

[wheat plume]

now I need to lookup if America always used automatic cars or did they switch at some point

[astral haven]

we made the switch when automatics got better than manuals
so basically 20 years ago

[empty wren]

😵‍💫

[final flame]

as much as it is annoying that the blackout has been inhibiting me from accessing some subs, it needs to continue until we are successful

[vagrant pagoda]

there are other sources of porn

[final flame]

Imagine using reddit for porn smh

I have a great deal of sites that are better

[astral haven]

but reddit is the frontpage of the internet right
and we all know what the internet was made for...

[latent mural]

what happened here

[vagrant pagoda]

where is a better source of amateur stuff

[final flame]

kemono party has everything amateur

[vagrant pagoda]

Is there anyone that can help me with an audio question

I have the senheiser 560s and the schiit magni, I was wondering if getting a dac would be worth investing in or are the benefits minimal

[gusty kiln]

Modern motherboard audio is usual good enough nowadays. But if you're worried you can just buy an apple dongle with the right cable to be your dac

But I wouldn't stop you to buy a modi of you want a nice stack

Just buy what you can reasonably afford

[eager fossil]

I do have the apple dongle actually, but i’m not sure if I have the right cable, I don’t remember which audio cable I bought unfortunately since it’s been awhile.

[old marlin]

wait

ddg browser is public now

[empty wren]

That is interesting

[old marlin]

lol where you on that meetup

someone ik has been there

ah

was at a meetup in finland afaik

[crisp granite]

le no thank you

Miatas...nah

not for me
I don't like riding bright red angry lawnmowers

...was about to say

mazdas really are built for spanish twinks
not men

eh
could see that in a porno or a fast and furious 17 or whatever they're on at this point

pro tip
skip the asian designs
just get a comically large north american truck with a stupid lift kit

[crisp granite]

they're built to keep at least 250kg in each seat

gratz

I started lifting again, because before covid, I was a mess mentally and it fell apart, couldn't during covid

back above 110kg though
so I'm proud of that

yeah...
tbh, even at my lowest during covid when I barely ate or moved and lost a massive chunk of my mass and...ability
BMI still said I was overweight

thank you, genetics, for a comically large chest

I feel ya there

PT

is suffering

just because
running

swimming is nice and low intensity though

beach?

you mean a stretch of gravel along a waterway, right?

no wait you're an islander

lucky bastard

I would move somewhere where there is sea...but then I'd have to deal with the sun

I'd like both

please

[sharp badger]

Quite a different climate there compared to Hawaii 🥶

Yeah for sure

[snow moon]

Physical activity helps a lot in staying warm tho

So I get it for hikes and stuff

When I'm walking in the city in winter I'm only wearing a hoodie while everyone else is wearing jackets.
Well, until the days where it was -10 and less, I wore my jacket there but I found it quite hot

But too cold to go without

We gotta get some clothing tech that can just change the clothes' properties

[sharp badger]

Yeah had a guide in Portugal that also was like that (-the hat)

But it feels so nice now that we finally seem to have some summer weather in Finland 🌞

[astral haven]

from far away it looks like one of those old lamborghinis lmao

like a silver countach?

[fickle ore]

fck I want a lambo

I want Lambo Urus performante

plz gib

but this goes 306 kph

tbh i just want an expensive car bc mine is the shittest can of rust on the road I live

I don't either, but all the grandpas driving here with their 30k-50k new cars makes me wish I could get a 150k one 😄

[true quest]

reminds me of that one company that charges $30000 per brake pad

[marsh glade]

1995 Toyota Supra enters the chat

[hollow grove]

When are they planning to have them back in stock? Or release date for the pink model?

Why are these 12khz monitors?

Ok but how?! 😮

prob horizontal hz

[astral haven]

nah they are likely talking about proper refresh rate

[fickle ore]

so odd we havent got anything over 500 and now suddenly 12khz

Np Ill take one for 2k$

[astral haven]

🤷 plenty of high speed displays exist

and these panels are each only 720pish

[fickle ore]

ah

[astral haven]

ok so theres a clarification on their pamphlet, "visual refresh rate"

that probably means they are strobing

https://displaysolutions.samsung.com/pdf/e-catalog/6975/Samsung_The_Wall-for-Virtual_Production_Catalog_220805_2P.pdf

video rate 120hz yep definetly strobing

[fickle ore]

Whaat is visual refresh rate 😄

[astral haven]

1/mprt presumeably

[ashen spindle]

what if someone mixed up . and , in a spreadsheet and misread it

[astral haven]

nah

12khz is only .08ms strobes

they make 30-40NS switching time leds (tho these arent that)

[fickle ore]

cool nonetheless

Even at 120hz thatd be good

[astral haven]

agreed

now they just need to shrink the 4k screen from 6 feet tall to 6mm tall so that we can use it to make a nice vr headset

[dusk kayak]

whats up

im a newbie in the chat

also a tech geek

except i cant fucking decide on which mouse to get and i need some insight STAT lol

i definitely enjoy having multiple mappable buttons on it when gaming, im talking like 4 or 5 (not including right/left click obvi), high DPI also obvi

anddddd it doesn't seem there's one that's the outright best, all mixed reviews everywhere i look, if you got a recommendation hit me im all ears

[astral haven]

theres never an outright best

[dusk kayak]

thats what i was afraid to hear 😂

hahaha

fack

[astral haven]

original gpro is pretty cool, and all the logitechs can use gshift to double the action options per mappable button

razer has good hardware, but the software is actually a virus

[dusk kayak]

im using a razer basilisk ultimate rn

its heavy af

wanted to try something lighter but i do enjoy having multiple buttons, the GPRO superlight has phenomenal reviews and im inclined to try it out but it's only got 2 side buttons i think

[sacred sleet]

That’s what pulled me away

The g502 k/da edition has 3 side buttons and I’m kinda addicted to it

[astral haven]

superlight is 2, however i have bound 5 extra functions using gshift

original gpro is 4 but you can bind 9 total with gshift

[dusk kayak]

this seems more up my alley, i need buttons for CAD as well not just gaming

[dusk kayak]

doesnt that get annoying in gameplay? when you have to switch what the buttons will do? i dont know anything about gshift really

[astral haven]

it depends what sort of binds you need

its extremely nice for autoclicking for example

[dusk kayak]

i legit only play cod hahaha

[waxen swan]

Which color between white or black for the logitech g pro x superlight looks better?

[dusk kayak]

depends on your setup i'd say

[waxen swan]

Well its all white

But then my wooting will be black

Lol

[dusk kayak]

😂

[waxen swan]

White iem, white mic but will have black wooting

[dusk kayak]

sounds like youre going black my friend

[waxen swan]

I'll have a mix

[dusk kayak]

can't just have one thing not match, might as well get a black mouse too

[waxen swan]

Yeah would look weird to have just a black keyboard

I think ill go black

[stoic thorn]

i got a viper ultimate today

feels nice

"AMD openSIL is a long-term project that should reach "production" status in 2026 and replace AGESA with that generation of hardware. The proof-of-concept phase is expected to run through 2024. "

So, what does this translate into for consumers?

Better platform stability?

I doubt it's better performance

[fair gull]

the fuck is that abomination

[mild dome]

In theory with many eyes looking at it openSIL would enable better stability, security, and maybe a smidgen of performance

Oh man, Sony made it a real pain to get real headphones to work on the PS5.

No optical, no 3.5mm port, and no support for above UAC1.

the Schitt 2HE looks the best of the bunch, but if you google, it's QC issues are otherworldly

Like you got a real good chance of a dud

USB to 3.5mm adapters seem to be the best choice, but you're limited to UAC1

Most are UAC2. Only cheaper, older Chinese brands are UAC1 typically

Yes but then that's bluetooth.

And not good Bluetooth

It's SBC

More than one party are at fault here 😛

[old marlin]

ah wait

i forgot

razer bad

no matter what

[reef patrol]

Oh shush.

[old marlin]

so how are they at fault

if pokemon only is ready to give the SEA license

[reef patrol]

If you're going to do, do it properly.

Razer is not an Asia only company.

[old marlin]

aka

you are not doing it

because pokemon won't give you the other license

• like most of the buyers are in those countries

[reef patrol]

Ah yes - Pokémon. The famously Asia only popular franchise.

Not like it's worldwide known or anything.

[old marlin]

the merch is way more popular there

[reef patrol]

Asia has a lot of people. That doesn't mean there aren't a lot of customers elsewhere.

[old marlin]

well

tell that to the pokemon company

[reef patrol]

I told Razer - The company that chose to market these products.

[old marlin]

marketing those products in the market where pokemon products not aimed at children do historically sell well

[mild dome]

Razer is following the rules, if Nintendonk didn't want outside regions purchasing then they should have specified

[old marlin]

no but you forgot

razer bad

[reef patrol]

According to what? Now you're trying to hard data without actual sources.

Pokemon is huge in Europe and the US. Remember a little something called Pokemon GO?

[old marlin]

pokemon go is not merch

[reef patrol]

No the merch is merch.

[reef patrol]

And yes. Razer bad. For doing an Asia exclusive thing as a global corporation.

[old marlin]

gl getting better data on that

like second largest franchise is purely made from merch sold in that region btw

aka hello kitty

[reef patrol]

Well would you look at that. Adding two regions would double expected sales.

[old marlin]

that is not merch

that is just pokemon revenue per region

[reef patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/eye-roll-ugh-stanley-rolls-eyes-gif-9403428

[old marlin]

merch and revenue is not the same thing

and there is no official financial report that gives you more than that

[reef patrol]

provide data
I provide data
Well would you look at that.
No no. Not THAT data.

[old marlin]

yea ok no use arguing with you

[reef patrol]

I'm just going to move right along, cause you're obviously not interested in a good faith discussion 😛

[old marlin]

"cute" merch just sells better in SEA

I literally can't give you pokemon specific data

since it is not public

[reef patrol]

Then don't try and use it as an argument based on pure guesswork? 😛

Source: TrustMeBro™️

It's almost as if Asia has three to four times the population of Europe and the US combined or something.

[old marlin]

it's not about population

they just buy different stuff

that is why hello kitty is so big

[reef patrol]

Uh huh...

[old marlin]

preeeetty sure japan has like 120-130 million people

so like

half the US

and like less than a tenth than "asia"

not saying pokemons break down will look exactly the same

Beware of very current ROG Ally benchmarks. @StarFire2258 alluded to performance degradation in his updated review over on The Verge and it appears to be related to the Day 0 Bios Update. This update cuts performance by as much as 33% and could be fixed in an upcoming update.

A bit weird but we'll see how it goes

Seems like just more confusion for no reason

Eh, still not as bad as AMD's new naming scheme, that's just sad

[ashen spindle]

we'll have to see for metor lake/ raptor refresh to come out and then we know what is used for what

[woven parrot]

Hello guys, am I the only one that feel that the keyboard is less responsive since some weeks ?

[ashen spindle]

probably yes

[woven parrot]

Is there a way to revert driver / firmware to 0.1 rapidtrigger instead of 0.15 ?

well a friend felt that too without talking to each other

maybe I got too used to it idk

but I'm not crazy there was a 0.1 rapidtrigger option before no ?

[ashen spindle]

the change did not make it so you have less room, it only made the displayed numbers more accurate

[woven parrot]

ok

[ashen spindle]

nothing got nerfed or changed

[wheat plume]

youtube.....

you good, m8?

Cause I do have premium

[frozen ingot]

ew premium

[thick elk]

I have premium lite myself, honestly for the amount of YouTube I watch and have watched with ad blocking enabled I find it only fair that I pay for premium

[wheat plume]

lite?

[thick elk]

Basically just ad free youtube without the premium features in the app or youtube music stuff.
I don't use those anyway.

of course I could buy out of region cheaper youtube premium but for my uses that makes little sense and € 7 per month is acceptable cost wise

[vocal ocean]

I just swapped out the switch in my doubleclicking sensei ten

now it workie again

I don't need a new one

but I'd like one

google pixel with graphene os - source louis rossman

sounds something u like

[pale sigil]

Also i have a Pixel 7a

[frozen ingot]

phones are so damn overpriced these days I don't know when I'll ever buy a new one

[woven laurel]

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

hahahaha

going to watch it

[fair gull]

they have a lite?

[woven laurel]

maybe get a fairphone

[empty wren]

Just get the nophone

Only $14 right now due to a sale

$6 if you need a selfie camera

Displayport obviously

[reef patrol]

The keyboard uses 2.0

[ashen spindle]

^

[fickle ore]

I put it on usb 3.2 gen 2 10 gbps bc I can

and it zoomz faster

[reef patrol]

You have to look HARD to find a USB port that it won't run at on paper. Like my Mac from 2004 with USB 1.1.

[ashen spindle]

if you talk about an 8khz mouse, sure that needs usb3

no

[reef patrol]

Still bound by USB 2.0 limits.

[ashen spindle]

oh also I was wrong I was thikning of something else, 8khz mouse still runs fine in usb2

[reef patrol]

It's a keyboard, not a USB SSD. You don't need bandwidth, you need low latency and power. And that doesn't exceed those specs.

[woven laurel]

oooh yeah people love to advertise with those polling rates

[fickle ore]

wdym usb 3.2 gen 2 is atleast 4x faster than usb 2 for latency.

[fair gull]

the what mode

[ashen spindle]

any issue is more likely coming from the usb controller having multiple things on it and then usb3 has more than available so there it makes sense

but if its the only device on the usb controller, that shouldn't matter

[fair gull]

should run on 1.1

[empty wren]

When wooting use ps2?

[fair gull]

1.1 introduced 1khz polling and has more than enough bandwidth

[reef patrol]

My Mac doesn't like it 😄

[fair gull]

thats a power limitation

which we do overstep a bit

with i think 600 or 700mA instead of the 500 that most ports will do

im almost certain a powered usb hub on a 1.1 port will work a ok

[reef patrol]

Though to be fair my Mac has bigger problems. Like needing open source software to use right click mice 😄

[woven laurel]

as a software developer mac makes me cry

[ashen spindle]

I can tell you from experience usb2 hub will cause issues if you have a wooting and a mouse on it, usb3 no issue, but keyboard alone on usb2 also no issue

[fair gull]

also fun fact u dont need usb3 for 8khz polling

[woven laurel]

u want to make something ios/mac compatible you need a license for everything

[pale sigil]

Good job a lot of Wooting shit is deved on Mac

[pale sigil]

[ashen spindle]

yeah I corrected myself, I mistook that for something else

[fair gull]

i mean idk how much bandwidth those mice actually use

but a keyboard with 8khz can easily run on usb2

although if a mouse sends more than 480mbit thats kinda insane

[ashen spindle]

there are posts on blurbusters how the 8khz razer at first had issues of not running well on usb3 lmfao but fine on usb2

[woven laurel]

would be kinda insane for a mouse to require usb 3.2 noo?

[ashen spindle]

the idea is not that it requires it but supposedly makes it better because higher bandwidth = faster

which isnt true but that sort of pc "enhancement" is what people placebo on

[glad scroll]

That is extremely unfortunate, I was looking into possibly getting a pixel and flashing it with grapheneos. But now I won't be doing that after seeing what a sociopath the project leader is

Though its just as possible its just a thing to make it seem like that was planned instead of the nuclear meltdown that it actually was xd

Lol

Fancy way of saying "time for us to sell stocks and be enslaved to investors"

I really don't mind Reddit monetizing the API access

I think where the problem lies is the quota they have given for how much it would cost

Cause Reddit basically pays with their own infrastructure if some guy creates a reddit app clone and fetches all data via the API

[solemn remnant]

so? maybe they shouldn't have created reddit in the first place

stick it to the man

[cursive summit]

Oh, brand new reddit news https://mods.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/articles/16693988535309

Yeah I think Reddit is being fairly reasonable

They aren't monetizing it for everyone, just the main major traffic consumers

Again maybe they are planning to charge just a bit too much for traffic

[ashen spindle]

bit too much is good when apollo dev showcases charging every user with a small price wouldn't cover costs lol

[mild dome]

Reddit is charging more for API access due to AI companies scraping everything they can off the platform. Reddit is trying to extract as much money out of those companies as possible, and it just so happens this plan hurts third party app developers.
Truly they and their bandwidth usage was never a factor, it was always about AI.

[old marlin]

surprising to see them kill double clutches in favor of torgue converters

[wheat plume]

What they gonna do in Ireland?
You must drive manual unless you get an exception due to some impairment

[somber ridge]

Wait? You HAVE to drive manual in ireland?

[ashen spindle]

Yeah that sounds wrong, what rules are that?

Are you mixing it up with licenses made in automatic cars only allow you drive automatic?

[wheat plume]

Yes
Unless you are granted an exception

[ashen spindle]

Can you find some source for that? I can’t find any

[somber ridge]

yea, sounds off... in most cases you arent even allowed to drive with an impairent here in germany, or you need to get a special kind of car

[ashen spindle]

Yeah all I can find are the same rules as for automatic licenses here in Germany

[wheat plume]

Idek if there is a different license for automatic cars

[reef patrol]

Do you mean LEARN or actually "automatic gear is banned"? 😛

[wheat plume]

But probably

[crimson wigeon]

Probably just if you learn to drive with an automatic your license only allows you to drive automatics, whereas if you learn on manual you get to drive both

[wheat plume]

No
They aren't banned
But you must request to get an automatic car
They are all manual by default and you must request automatic from the dealership

[reef patrol]

Well... yes?

[wheat plume]

Unless you are getting a fully electric car
Those are automatic

[reef patrol]

That's just market powers.

[wheat plume]

Probably that

[ashen spindle]

yeah so same as most places

aka them ending manual gears in 2030 doesnt matter for ireland at all

[reef patrol]

Automatic gear models are generally more expensive, and everyone learns using manual. So expecting there to be a huge selection of automatics is kind of silly 😄

[crimson wigeon]

And some say manual is more fun

[wheat plume]

They don't even ask if you want automatic
You must manually request it and then wait for them to get the car in

[reef patrol]

I'm not aware of any countries other than the US? that'll let you learn on an automatic.

[ashen spindle]

you can do it here but it means you are only allowed to drive automatic then

same in ireland it seems

[crimson wigeon]

Can do it here as well but I chose not to because fuck that

[halcyon moss]

same in nl

[somber ridge]

but you can definetly notice a big shift in newer cars towards automatic transitions (here in germany)

[wheat plume]

I like being able to drive manual
I've never used an automatic car before

[reef patrol]

Oh sure. It's slowly becoming normalized.

[ashen spindle]

how do you know you like it then if you dont have the comparison xD

[wheat plume]

I'm sure I'd enjoy automatic much better

But I like I have the skill to drive manual

[somber ridge]

ye, driving manual is a good skill to have

[wheat plume]

Yeh...

[ashen spindle]

and yeah in the US automatic is a much bigger part because fuel cheaper there and the slight efficency gains in fuel dont matter as much there

[wheat plume]

Stop and go traffic fucking sucks in manual

[ashen spindle]

but since the systems get better its also less relevant so thats one part why we see more automatic cars here now

[crimson wigeon]

Eh, wouldn't be surprised if automatic is more efficient than manual these days

[wheat plume]

Engine braking?

[halcyon moss]

you have a licence?

[wheat plume]

Yes

Been driving on full license for 5 years

[halcyon moss]

how do you go down a hill?

[ashen spindle]

full speed

[crimson wigeon]

PEDAL TO THE METAL

[halcyon moss]

do you press the brakes? or do you let the engine do the braking?

[wheat plume]

I brake going down a hill if it's steep

[severe phoenix]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDzCwbLuTO4

[wheat plume]

Or if it's a slight hill on the main road I just stop accelerating

[halcyon moss]

I assume V is typing an essay, but thats engine breaking

[wheat plume]

So just letting the car slow down without the brakes is engine braking?

[halcyon moss]

yes, and there are more advanced forms of that, like down shifting

[fair gull]

you cant engine break without down shifting

[reef patrol]

But you CAN break engine.

[wheat plume]

If I know I'm approaching a speed limit sign that's lower than the current speed limit....
I'll just stop accelerating and let the car slow down to the new speed limit by the time I reach the sign

It's so satisfying when I get to the speed right at the sign

Going into and out of town
I know two spots I can do that in

[halcyon moss]

it saves on fuel!

[wheat plume]

Yes!

[halcyon moss]

neutral coasting i've never done

does anyone really?

[wheat plume]

The what?

[somber ridge]

How about double clutching

[wheat plume]

I was forced to learn how to read the rev counter in my new car

It doesn't have a shift indicator

My last car told me when to go up or down gears

[halcyon moss]

/shrug i usually do that by sound

[wheat plume]

Same
But it's hard to do when I play music while driving xd

[somber ridge]

My shift indicators are way to early anyways, I don’t use mine

Same, the second I’m over 2000rpm it’s says to shift up

[ashen spindle]

cant wait for like 5 years or so in the future when I drive a car for the first time since over a decade and I will remember none of these things because its automatic lol

[somber ridge]

You paid for the full rpm range so you gonna use it

Mine don’t do dat

[wheat plume]

I usually change gear when the rev counter shows 30

I would go out to take a photo of the rev counter
But it's too wet and I'm wearing a t-shirt

[somber ridge]

My car is slow, so I usually shift at 3.5 - 4k when I need to accelerate

[wheat plume]

When I start moving from being stopped
I have to shift to 2nd real quickly

It wants to spend barely any time in 1st

I remember when I got my first car
Mom tried to get the mechanic to disable the 5th gear on it before it was given over to me
To prevent me from driving in 5th

🤦‍♀️

She never told me that
The mechanic told me that

[solemn remnant]

wtf

[wheat plume]

She doesn't use 5th gear either

[solemn remnant]

car genius

no way

[wheat plume]

Doesn't drive faster than 70km/h

Even if the speed limit is 100

[solemn remnant]

that's dangerous

[wheat plume]

It's dangerous for the cars caught behind her :/

Trying to overtake her

[solemn remnant]

yep

also she should probably be aware that she can still drive at 70 on the 5th, just uses a lot less fuel

[wheat plume]

She don't give a shit
"Eh, they will overtake if they really want to" .-.

Wtf is a cruise gear?

[marsh glade]

Your highest gear

[wheat plume]

Oh

You wanna know the sad part?

Her car has 6 gears

She only uses 4

And reverse

Istg she should swap cars with me
Mine would suit her better

And she doesn't make use of the very good infotainment system either
She still answers the phone by hand while driving .-.

[solemn remnant]

you need to do an intervention

[wheat plume]

Her car had a fucking screen to answer calls on

But no
She doesn't know how to pair her phone

It's not

She answers it
Then sets the phone into the cup holder
And just yells out loud to make sure the person on the call hears her

[marsh glade]

This sentence confused me because I read it as "car should be manual" which is precisely the opposite of what you said haha

[fair gull]

i see you dont know lanas mom

or lana

[solemn remnant]

nice mental gymnastics there, I can't drive over 70 or use anything over the 4th gear, but lemme just answer my phone real quick, even though there's an option for me to not use my hand at all

[wheat plume]

Ikr

[solemn remnant]

maybe I should

X)

[fair gull]

u see... we have held a still ongoing intervention for lana since learning a bit of her life

[wheat plume]

Anytime she gets a phone call while driving
She pulls over
Answers it
Puts the phone in the cup holder
Starts driving again
And just talks mega loud to make sure they hear her on the call

And then waits for the person to hang up

So she doesn't have to touch the phone again

[solemn remnant]

[wheat plume]

Meanwhile
My car doesn't have Bluetooth
Or a touchscreen to answer and make calls

So I have to pick my phone up by hand

I have to do what she does
And she doesn't but she still does

[solemn remnant]

if you have a cig lighter you can buy a thingy that plugs in there for 10e, then you just set it to an fm frequency, tune the car radio to that and now you have all the functionality you need

goes really well with my rusty volvo station wagon

[wheat plume]

Yep
I use that xd

[solemn remnant]

~aesthetics~

[wheat plume]

The issue is, I can't find a clear frequency
Except if I'm in town
So anytime I leave town
I get interference

[fair gull]

u dont have a cassette player in your car?

[wheat plume]

My new car has a USB port
Maybe that can play music over it if I plug my phone in? Idk

[fair gull]

usb stick if anything

[solemn remnant]

you can probably just plug in a memory stick

[wheat plume]

I only have a few songs downloaded
The rest I play from yt music

My uncle once asked me to rip all his CDs into a USB stick so he could play them all in the car

Turns out his car doesn't like mp3

It wanted FUCKING WAV

I had to convert them all to WAV .-.

How tf
Do you make a fucking music player
THAT DOESN'T SUPPORT MP3?????

YES

THEY WERE ALL MP3

[fair gull]

lana missing the cbr

[wheat plume]

Wat

[fair gull]

constant bitrate

[wheat plume]

I looked up the car model
It only supported WAV -.-

[fair gull]

ah well

anyway

He is old but he wanted to move to USB stick xd

70% to the streamers....right?? right???!!!

[hoary tendon]

wtf

[crimson wigeon]

However, as noted by PC Gamer, gift subscriptions and Twitch Prime subscriptions do not count towards the 350 threshold.
Interesting, guess primers will be shamed

[old marlin]

the 70/30 cut is the same thing that youtube offers to any streamer

[hoary tendon]

they actually trying to do something good, but it really does not help smaller streamers

[old marlin]

"sub count of at least 350 recurring paid subscriptions for three consecutive months."

means not THAT many people will get it

[wheat plume]

there is no way Twitch will get away with taking 70% for long .-.

[old marlin]

and the 100k anually means that most full time streamers can't get it anyways

[hoary tendon]

it fits a very, VERY tiny group of streamers

[old marlin]

which basically rules out almost everyone

[hoary tendon]

lol

Youtube strikes again with another dumb ass change. Guess which parts of this thumbnail I can click to open it in a new tab.

[crimson wigeon]

Title

[reef patrol]

That's right! Only the title field! Cause if you try and do it on the thumbnail - which is now a full on fucking video autoplayer, the browser expects that you want to SCROLL THE PAGE.

https://tenor.com/view/marah-panda-marah-kesel-sebel-emosi-gif-12789170

[wheat plume]

It does that sometimes

but mostly not

I alos notice that any video I watch a few seconds of, get marked as fully watched in my history

🤦‍♀️

you watched a fdew seconds of this hour long video?

nah, you fully watched it!

[reef patrol]

I always get the opposite.

"oh no, you skipped ahead once to skip an ad? Yeah you only watched 20% of this video"

[wheat plume]

hhmm

[glad scroll]

From my testing you have to watch 10+ seconds for the video to continue playing from the place in the thumbnail.

If you watch 9 seconds or shorter, its reset to the start

[stoic thorn]

i use it personally all the time to watch a video like 15-30 seconds in to see if im gonna like it

[wheat plume]

[wheat plume]

I asked it how do I change that chat wallpaper

and it said the steps

but when i did the steps, snapchat begged me to sign up for Snapchat+ to change the wallpaper

so I said to the Ai that I cant change it without Snapchat+ and it said that it doesnt know what that is

[empty wren]

Alright

[vagrant jackal]

I loved my 7 Pro, what killed it was it updating to A12, didn't like oneplus' version of it

felt like Smasnug

[empty wren]

Yeah so every second version is always iffy

Like battery tanking

Or so

I think that goes for any phone

Also android 12 or so

Killed some nice basic features

Oneplus might have had to comply but they could have still enabled them

[vagrant jackal]

Stock google on my sony is way cleaner although its missing nice features OP has/has

Circle icons

[empty wren]

What specifically do you miss

[empty wren]

Oh that might be an easy one

Android should support that default check your launcher settings

[vagrant jackal]

OP launcher didnt have any stock

[empty wren]

Oh

[vagrant jackal]

options were square, rounded square, and square/circle hybrid thing

[empty wren]

Oh

I think that got killed recently

I do not have that option anymore you can thank google

[vagrant jackal]

My Sony has circle icons

[empty wren]

Yeah those are stock now

Unless manufacturer overides it with a skin

[vagrant jackal]

I miss one swipe down for media player and settings

[empty wren]

One huge windows phone feature I wish google picked up is media controls when using volume

[empty wren]

You know two finger swiping does the same

[vagrant jackal]

Yeah but thats an extra swipe

oh wait what

[empty wren]

No

[vagrant jackal]

no not for me

[empty wren]

Use two fingers on your status bar

[vagrant jackal]

ooohhh

eh i still prefer one swipe

especially one handing the phone

[empty wren]

Might be an app on the playstore to possibly enable it

Or I do not know maybe if Sony has double tap on bavka nd you are using it you can maybe double tap the phone for the settings/media player

[halcyon moss]

that llooks liek a keychron k3

[lament terrace]

wwhats the difference between the wooting two he and the wooting 60he

[ashen spindle]

About 40%

[halcyon moss]

Size

[lament terrace]

oh ok ty

i just ordered the wooting two he

[halcyon moss]

The 60he is a fraction faster, but meh

[ashen spindle]

Latest wootility fixed that too

[frozen ingot]

yeah with focus zones the difference is even more extremely insigificant than it already was

[halcyon moss]

Ah, I'm out of date

[ashen spindle]

Actually the same for focus zone now so not even placebo advantage

[frozen ingot]

0.4ms could definitely qualify as placebo difference

like yeah its there but its too small for any human to realistically notice

[ashen spindle]

those .4 s are not there anymore with focus mode

[eager fossil]

Are crinacle zeros still the best budget iem ?

[astral haven]

which ones

[eager fossil]

OH

OG*

[marsh glade]

No difference for the focused area. 1ms every ms

[astral haven]

i have em but personally recommend the project red or the salnotes zero instead

[eager fossil]

project red is the newer one right

[astral haven]

project red is the newest

[cursive summit]

No

There still is no "best budget IEM", universally

Cause with audio it's simple, everyone has different preferences

Just cause you mentioned zeros I imagine you like dem bass

Project red's prolly the better bass boosted thing nowadays

[eager fossil]

Makes sense, thanks

What's a good brand of headphone cable to get? I was thinking of getting a 4.4mm balanced cable for my Focal. Something that's a reasonable price and works

[cursive summit]

Cables are a scam

[pale sigil]

[rough osprey]

Does anyone know how i could export an image out of a program (like a game)?

[ashen spindle]

A screenshot?

[rough osprey]

nah i want the original file tho

[ashen spindle]

Open the original file location

[rough osprey]

its all just .dll and .pak`s

cant really access them

[ashen spindle]

I mean it is different for basically any engine if we talk about games

[rough osprey]

okay i wanna export the avatars in the battlenet launcher

Ultimate value is back?

Probably not

6800XT was and remains incredible though

[pale sigil]

RIP

false alarm

[cursive summit]

Not sure how many people genuinely cared that your porn drive was temporarily gone

[pale sigil]

[cursive summit]

Cal's a bit out of touch

[pale sigil]

Im not like i used to be

i dont live on discord

[cursive summit]

Good to hear you're back in your mother's basement

[halcyon moss]

The graph you posted earlier tells otherwise

[ashen spindle]

this is hardly the first time I mention getting one for it

[pale sigil]

Ok, i mean i dont view all channels ok.

[halcyon moss]

Riiight

[halcyon moss]

No need to proof some easy prodding :p

[pale sigil]

hmm?

[ashen spindle]

ah nice, god of war ragnarok downloaded in a few minutes so I can also test it with the free game I got xD

probably still going to get a dongle so I can put the headphone in the ps5 and no in the controller, that cable is indeed a bit annoying

[jagged mauve]

is it possible to macro mouse wheel binds in wootomation ?

[pale sigil]

i have the most gheto way of getting my max download, its actually funny.

Stuck my Pixel 7a to the door frame and im using WIFI 6

@halcyon moss

[halcyon moss]

What

[pale sigil]

tagged because you responded to the last attempt i think?

[halcyon moss]

No?

[pale sigil]

Oh it was@astral haven haha

bloody hate using wifi

[ashen spindle]

ngl might use the ps5 for HDR playback, makes it so I dont need to toggle it in windows everytime lol

also god damn so many videos saying HDR that arent HDR on youtube

so annoying when trying to test it

I dont evne know if they do HDR

@fair gull does your macbook do hdr and does it auto toggle?

[pale sigil]

Also i thought W11 did that now

[fair gull]

hdr yes auto no

[ashen spindle]

win11 has auto HDR, dont think it has seamless switching

as in it maps sdr stuff to hdr

[fair gull]

well it does auto ydr but only on fresh boot

since mine sleeps mostly it doesnt auto hdr

[astral haven]

yea its only for games
also microsoft is improving the native HDR to the point where you arent gonna need to turn it off any more

[ashen spindle]

well

it is impossible for others to see anything if I stream something with hdr on lmfao

so not quite

[astral haven]

as i said improving

aint quite done yet

[ashen spindle]

I doubt they add an autoconversion to have output for streams use sdr anytime soon

wouldnt be mad about it but doubt it
