Works for me

[wheat plume]

I think
Idk where the setting is anymore

[vagrant pagoda]

get one of those alarms that just shakes your bed

[hasty thunder]

place your alarm, phone, whatever rings the alarm, far enough from your bed so you have to get up in order to turn it off

[coarse cloak]

need to try that out next time

haven't used alarm in forever except for naps

Discord doesn't like images anymore

[warm night]

truly a discord moment

[astral haven]

android 14 bug?

[warm night]

fine for me and im on 14 so i dunno

[wheat plume]

Speaking of Android 14....

DISCORD
PLEASE MAKE A THEMED ICON, FFS

Even WHATSAPP has one .-.

[woven laurel]

AI

[final flame]

just make your own at that point

[woven laurel]

5G

[final flame]

there's a reason why I don't like extremely themed icon packs, since they make the icons that aren't made stick out so much

Meeyo icons are the icons I like to use

[warm night]

question mark

[wheat plume]

....wait how ?.

[warm night]

i just have it ..?

[wheat plume]

Do you have Nitro??
Did they lock it behind nitro?

[warm night]

lmfao

nope

no nitro

[wheat plume]

Wtf

[warm night]

snap & tumblr suck tho

[crisp granite]

that would be the dumbest and most niche shit to lock behind nitro

[warm night]

at least tumblr is close enough to my colours anyway

it doesn't mega stand out like snap

xd

[wheat plume]

All the other discord app icons are nitro only

[warm night]

I actually dunno why i have it and you dont

I've done nothing special (that I am aware of)

[wheat plume]

Idk ;_;

[warm night]

unless its another one of those rollouts that take 308 years to get to everyone

but that seems like such a silly thing to do like that

is your app up to date

[coarse cloak]

they've.,............,,,,,,,,,,, already locked some icon apps behind nitro.......,,,,,,,,

[wheat plume]

Yep I'm in beta

[final flame]

Meeyo icons ftw

[warm night]

i hate squircles

wtf

[wheat plume]

I just have default Android ones xf

[astral haven]

my icon pack has a ton of generic icons that are easy to apply to any app

[warm night]

didnt know i could hate an icon shape that much

kde connect user

lets go

[final flame]

Just because you have a opinion doesn't make it right

:)

[wheat plume]

KDE Connect is my favorite app ever

💜💜

[final flame]

KDE connect is alright, has quite a few issues connecting for me

[coarse cloak]

is mario kart a good game

[wheat plume]

You connecting it to Linux or Windows or Mac?

[warm night]

it always just connects for me at least, never really had an issue

[wheat plume]

Yes but the controls suck on touchscreen

[final flame]

also can't select multiple files you want to send at the same time, easiest option is just to compress the files into a zip and send them

[coarse cloak]

f

[final flame]

Windows pc to a ipad

[wheat plume]

Oh
You are connecting to Windows

[warm night]

even using gsconnect on gnome it just worked

[wheat plume]

You can send multiple files at once on Linux

Both ways

[final flame]

so the windows app just sucks bruh

[wheat plume]

Even different file types

Yep

Well ..the app is the same

But on Linux its integrated into the file manager

So you can highlight many files and right click and send

It's not integrated into windows file explorer

[final flame]

so that's the issue

[wheat plume]

Ye

[warm night]

its probably possible to integrate it

but not going to happen probably

[wheat plume]

I bet Microsoft disallowed it

[warm night]

ive seen a few interesting things integrated into explorer

[wheat plume]

Dave

Same * lol

[warm night]

so i cant see that not being possible, also dunno if Microsoft would really restrict that

[wheat plume]

The keyboard is smaller in Android 14
I'm not used to it

[warm night]

unless they really wanted to push the link to windows

[warm night]

is it??

[wheat plume]

They have their own Kde Connect clone
So ofc they'd limit competition

[warm night]

ive been on the beta for ages so i really dont know

yeah i guess maybe

[wheat plume]

It's shorter

[final flame]

this is as close as to being interated in explorer as they've done

[wheat plume]

Oh hmm

That's new

[astral haven]

thats not an ofc
these days microsoft sees competition as a challenge to do better
the only thing they prevent is apps from adding themselves to the top of the right click menu

[final flame]

that's been there lol

[wheat plume]

Does that only send one file even if you select multiple?

[final flame]

just nobody uses "sent to" since everyone forgets about it

[wheat plume]

True

Still
Sending from the phone to Windows works with multiple files

[final flame]

I think you can send more than one file, but I have yet to test

[ashen spindle]

no clearly microsoft wants to limit what a usb protocol can do for non windows apps because they hate everything /s

[wheat plume]

Either way it works flawlessly on Linux
And even better in plasma desktop, ofc

[wheat plume]

USB?

What?

[astral haven]

uh what
its definetly not flawless

[wheat plume]

For me it has been

[final flame]

I've had many issues connecting it

[warm night]

its sometimes iffy getting it to pair at first

after that its fine

from my experience

[wheat plume]

You need to make an exception in the firewall for it though
Firewall blocks it

[warm night]

i dont even have a firewall bro

[final flame]

it's iffy even after the first pair

[wheat plume]

Windows

[astral haven]

that doesnt make it flawless, and you have been provided an example of it not being as such
i also found it really annoying with my deck

[wheat plume]

I've had issues with the windows build

[warm night]

its windows

gonna happen

insert trollface

[final flame]

doesn't that say more about the application more than the OS

[wheat plume]

Not really

[astral haven]

sure but you dont need it for windows, they have something that works, and better

[wheat plume]

KDE Connect is originally Linux only

[final flame]

there's plenty of apps that work great on Windows that do a similar thing
for example pushbullet

[wheat plume]

Yeah but Pushbullet is Windows native

[astral haven]

and the built in windows one also works

[wheat plume]

KDE Connect is QT

[warm night]

the link to windows thing just did not pair with my phone ever

[wheat plume]

Yeah but you need a Microsoft account and Bluetooth enabled at all times

[astral haven]

qt is an app design framework not a linux specific thing

and yes

that isnt a reason that it doesnt work

[astral haven]

this is a reason for it not to work, however it is also possibly user error

[astral haven]

just like this

[wheat plume]

But it was made in Linux first
Only on Windows because qt happens to work there
And most of the features had to be wet reworked to work in Windows

[astral haven]

but both of those mean the app isnt flawless

🤷 same could be said for a ton more about linux

[warm night]

i forgot what it wanted me to do but i did it and it just didnt pick up that i did it

i gave up shortly after

because i didnt really care

[astral haven]

yup

ive got a pretty tight firewall and i had to jump through hoops to pair it first time

[warm night]

probably could have got it working but at the end of the day most people dont feel like troubleshooting

so i guess its gotta work first time for people to actually use it

or at least tell you what's happening or something

[astral haven]

but ofc it was the same story on kde connect, except kde would just disconnect when i turned the firewall back on unlike with the windows built in one

[warm night]

i literally didnt have a firewall installed when I was using kde connect so i dunno about that

[astral haven]

network firewall

on your router

[warm night]

even that im pretty sure is just

not doing anything for my pc

yes very insecure no i dont care

[astral haven]

🤷 i have a slightly more manual setup than that

[warm night]

(until i get fucked)

(then ill care)

[wheat plume]

KDE Connect has themed icon

💜

Ffs discord

Wait wtf

Themed icon is only on stable branch and canary??

[coarse cloak]

are you on the other one

havent used it forever so i even forgot what its called

[warm night]

beta

[wheat plume]

Also.....
Android 14 seems to let you slide away persistent notifications

Just did it for Kde Connect's permanent notification

[coarse cloak]

PTB

[warm night]

oh

it does

that's interesting

[wheat plume]

See!

That's pretty neat

💜

Even shows in the history

[astral haven]

that was already in 13?

[warm night]

wtf why is the android 14 easter egg like a space ship flying game thing

[wheat plume]

Idk xd

Oh ... Guess I'm stuck in beta on phone

[astral haven]

the only things I cant dismiss are the system notifications like DND and system updates

can you get rid of those?

[wheat plume]

Probably yeah
You can turn off notifications for whatever app sends them

[astral haven]

even system?

[wheat plume]

Samsung doesn't let you, as we found out yesterday

[astral haven]

sure but dont think google did either on 13

[wheat plume]

They do

[astral haven]

neat

[wheat plume]

I have a few system apps that I disabled notifications from

[astral haven]

no

SYSTEM

not system apps

[wheat plume]

Hmmm

[astral haven]

yea those are not system

search all for either "system UI" or just "android system"

[wheat plume]

Yeah I forgot to enable the show system toggle

[astral haven]

now see thats a difference

Nice!

im stuck with both of these

[wheat plume]

Can turn them all off

[astral haven]

what happens if you enable do not disturb?

[wheat plume]

Hmmm?

[astral haven]

"do not disturb"

its a feature

pretty sure its android generic?

[wheat plume]

I have DND on RN

[astral haven]

sweet yea this bs is annoying asf

[wheat plume]

I've never once seen that notification

Must be Samsung thing

[astral haven]

yup 😦

[warm night]

i get the bedtime mode one

i can swipe that away i dunno if you couldn't before

honestly can't remember

[wheat plume]

I get no notification about DND
But it shows the DND schedule in the tile

[vagrant pagoda]

thats a lot of grunt

[astral haven]

where does the air go?

assuming those are 400w gpus, that prolly gets super toasty

unless ofc those are 2k+ rpm 38mms

[wheat plume]

Discord's "Uploading files" notification can ignore DND.....

Why though

[astral haven]

did you hide all?

[wheat plume]

Not for discord

You mean in DND settings? Then yes I did hide them all

[astral haven]

interesting yea thats janky

[wheat plume]

I think I remember Facebook Messenger also ignoring DND

Hearing that fucking ding sound every message

[fading cloud]

so how many new things are there for android 14?

[astral haven]

many

[vagrant pagoda]

6k rpm delta

[astral haven]

yeeeeee

[vagrant pagoda]

and 6 4090s

[fading cloud]

I feel like every since android 7 to android 8 there weren really any more features, year over year. imo

[vagrant pagoda]

hence the dual 2kw psus

[astral haven]

also 6k rpm?
are they 120mm? if so which model
my pfc1212de are 5400rpm

[vagrant pagoda]

dnd dosent hide notifactions that dont pop up

discords upload dosent pop up, it just shows on the bar

[astral haven]

it has a button that says "hide status bar icons"

[steep creek]

Never seen hspa here either. Very interesting

[astral haven]

seen it before, dont remember if it was in the us or europe

[steep creek]

Ah

[astral haven]

I think it was probably in europe

[steep creek]

Probably couple countries have it

[fading cloud]

Yea I have seen h+ too, germany however germany being germany shut down all 3G towers

[fading cloud]

atleast they kept 2G for basic comunication in areas with bad coverage and backwards compatibility

[steep creek]

Yep same. 2g 4g and 5g are the only ones remaining to my knowledge

[fading cloud]

Thing about 5G it isnt even true 5G *mostly

[astral haven]

i mean it is

[fading cloud]

Nah dawg

[astral haven]

its just 5g has 2 parts

the good part and mmwave

[fading cloud]

5G NSA is based on 4G+ with some very tiny benefits, mostly imo marketing

[astral haven]

for the end user?

10x upload bandwidth with the same signal strength

[fading cloud]

5G SA is true 5G that is actually based on 5G

For Vodafone, to enable 5G Sa you firstly need a two year plan, and go into the app to enable SA mode for the sim card

[astral haven]

ah

[fading cloud]

Yop

[astral haven]

tmobile just does SA automatically

[fading cloud]

germany?

[vagrant pagoda]

ill never get sa

im to far from towers

😦

[astral haven]

doubt

[steep creek]

Standalone here in the big cities, 4g elsewhere

[vagrant pagoda]

i mean 5g nsa is everywhere 4g is for some networks

[vagrant pagoda]

im like 30 miles from a tower at minium

i have to have a booster to get more than 1 bar on my property

[fading cloud]

Thing is, some people complain about 5G - while others dont
I am assuming those who complain about 5G (like bad coverage, drop outs etc) are 5G SA users while the other peasants like myself get 5G NSA which is almost everywhere where a 4G tower is

[vagrant pagoda]

i mean even on 5g sa

it will still connect to 4g/5gnsa

and will failover

[astral haven]

yea thats on your network operator tho, not the tech

[astral haven]

ive been to some mmwave areas and its incredible

[vagrant pagoda]

yep

[fading cloud]

Highest speed test I got on 5G (NSA - so 4G+ essentially)

[astral haven]

i got faster than that pre5g on regular lte

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah

was gonna say

that isnt that great

[fading cloud]

Yop germany my wooting members

THough it is about 10x faster than what I get at hiome LMAO

[astral haven]

yea and thats 3x what i get on SA indoors

[fading cloud]

This is what I get at home with my internet connection

I srl like my Ping, I always liked my ping

[vagrant pagoda]

oof

[fading cloud]

but my bandwidth sucks ass

[astral haven]

This is my best 5g score

Non mmwave

(presumably)

[fading cloud]

All data plans cap out at 500mbps here in germany :)

[astral haven]

get rekt, tmobile is only priority

pretty sure i was the only person using 5g on this tower

was in the middle of nowhere lmao

[steep creek]

Mmwave is quite fast. Afaik it’s still being tested here but they’ve recorded speeds 4 Gbit/s at the 26Ghz band

[astral haven]

ye

this was sub 6 for sure

[steep creek]

Yes it is

[fading cloud]

here this is my ping to google.com
varies from 9-12ms throughout the day

[steep creek]

But looks like the 700 mhz band is coming soon

[fading cloud]

on csgo (when it was csgo) I had to frankfurt steam servers 6-11ms ping

[astral haven]

also cloudflare is usually fastest for me
1.1.1.1

they also have a really fantastic speed tester at speed.cloudflare.com

[fading cloud]

it is wrong about two items

downloading stuff makes my latency go to the moon

any way I am gonna go it is 2 am

[astral haven]

Mfw when the 5g in my house is faster than the wifi

[steep creek]

My phone is faster with 5g than WiFi at home as well lol

[astral haven]

like come on
this is a wired connection slower than cellular

at least it has ok latency

It is just way to dank to get fibre where I live.

is it nvme?

[astral haven]

not by default obviously

emmc

but it has a slot where you can add an nvme

[vagrant pagoda]

ok

some just have sata m.2

[thorny mirage]

Could be big if it's a family plan thing too

[old marlin]

I love how he blames windows for asus shitty software

[wheat plume]

The Asus part of Windows worked fine for him

[old marlin]

no

he complained about asus launcher not properly resizing

"just windows things"

[umbral heron]

Like Windows isn't notorious when it comes to resizing/scaling problems

[old marlin]

like asus isn't notorious for shit software?

[halcyon moss]

they are, thats why this exists
https://github.com/seerge/g-helper

@umbral heron

Considering CPU wise Exynos 2200 was pretty damn competitive with Snapdragon

"1.7x increase in CPU performance", whatever that really means, could make it the top performing mobile chip

[halcyon moss]

No, just need to pay

[umbral heron]

RDNA3 in mobile processor, what a time to be alive

[frozen ingot]

Dankpods doesn't normally review stuff like this, I wouldn't put too much weight to the actual "info" in or general statements the video

he's an entertainment channel

LOL

[frozen ingot]

again, entertainment channel, doubt he wants to break the flow of his videos autistically drowning people in specs

[wheat plume]

yeah, he wont

he doesnt have to in order to realise what is a windows issue vs an asus issue

[frozen ingot]

he'll get things wrong a lot, or stuff not working when there's easy fixes

its fine, can still be entertained

if it was LTT or GN I'd probably be less forgiving

[fading cloud]

Hey someone knows smth about PSUs ?

My current one has bad smell

[reef patrol]

Define... smell. Like burnt plastic? or fish?

Or warm dust?

[fading cloud]

Like in the store are Corsair rm750x, seasonic GX series ROG strix , Thor

[fading cloud]

Like a cable slowly but surely melting I guess fish?

[reef patrol]

That is NOT a good smell. Could be a capacitor leaking, dying. I wouldn't trust a PSU like that and immediately chuck it and replace.

[frozen ingot]

I have a gx750

its nice

seasonic in general is a very solid psu brand

[raw zephyr]

hmm smells more like a used shoerack

i got the seasonic focus gx850, very solid

[fading cloud]

I have that in my hand I think gonna go with it

[raw zephyr]

indeed

you cannot go wrong

[warm night]

i believe (not too sure) that fish smell may be electrical fire

i would replace that thing

pretty quick

regardless of if its actually an electrical fire or anything there should really not be any smells coming out of it

[fading cloud]

Either way I got the seasonic one.
It was just to extreme, my mom recognized the smell of electronic burn because in the past something already had burnt.

Here was No flame no smoke just smell

[warm night]

seasonic is usually always a good choice

[old marlin]

except when it wasn't

and they had massive issues with transients

[umbral heron]

Hah!
No, I'll never get anything Seasonic again
I got 2 PSUs from them, 650W, whereas my PC ran great on 550W
Both of them has horrible issue with turning on PC, like if you flipped a switch on the back they needed 5 minutes to "warm up"
And while playing they could randomly turn off PC just because
Got myself 650W Cooler Master and lo and behold - no issues at all since

[old marlin]

usually it might only smell a fishy when new (espescially some corsair units)

and then possibly a hot plastic smell for a short while when they heat up the first few times

[ashen spindle]

Yeah no those are broken units if that happens lol

[fading cloud]

Yeah no, on idle the smell didn't develop but as soon as I fire up an intense game the smell started

[ashen spindle]

And personal sample sizes are always misleading

[old marlin]

well

it randomly turning off could be transient spikes

but sounds very much faulty

[fickle ore]

wen cybenetics diamond rated psu

been w8ing

[old marlin]

mine is only platinum

big rip

[fickle ore]

same

[fading cloud]

Found the issue

Aren't GPU cables rated for 350-400watts?

[old marlin]

no

8 pin is 150

[fading cloud]

It is 8 pin + 8 pin on one cable

[old marlin]

yea

150 + 150 is still not 350-400

[fading cloud]

Oh

Yeah if the GPU draws 310w of course

Oi that was close

[old marlin]

no

can still draw power via pcie

officially up to 75W iirc

realistically some cards draw 100

[fading cloud]

Yea But I heard that Nvidia usually doesn't use the PCIe slot

[ashen spindle]

everyone uses the pcie power

[cursive summit]

https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-rad-win-23-20-11-7

What's up with embed

[ashen spindle]

lower end cards even use pcie power alone

without any cables

[fading cloud]

Either way the PSU should have noticed it is drawing to much power and shut it off

[raw zephyr]

"Audio may intermittently become out of sync with video when recording from AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition with AV1 codec. " this happens on obs too

[ashen spindle]

I mean psus do that, but we dont really know if this is what happend ehre

they dont hard enforce a limit on every rail

[fading cloud]

Yeah it cooked the connector

It looks internal too

[reef patrol]

[fading cloud]

Safe to say I connected to the new Psu two PCIe connectors

The new PSU works and is installed

[cursive summit]

So, unless I read this wrong

There was a major breakthrough in PS5 jailbreaking today

People managed to run fake (unauthentic) packages on firmware 4.50

Those buggers are actually not far from jailbreaking the thing

Oh lol they literally did it, they managed to load games

PS5 officially jailbroken?

[fair gull]

link?

i know theres a kernel exploit but it doesnt lead to full jailbreak

[vagrant pagoda]

i thought 4.51 was broken for a bit now?

but you need a game on your ps5, but you cant connect a ps5 with the supported firmware to psn

and even then you can only run ps4 games at this time

[fickle ore]

Ok, BEV's are done for

Discord is pulling an EA and putting Microtransactions behind microtransactions

You need to pay for Nitro to be able to buy stuff from the shop

[reef patrol]

Oh hello Internet Explorer.

Bit late to the outrage party.

[wheat plume]

hhmm

is not even currency balanced

its 7 or 10 no matter the currency xd

[pale sigil]

Nah

In turkey it's cheaper

[wheat plume]

yeh xd im sure

[pale sigil]

So it is currency balanced

[wheat plume]

its 7 dollars and also 7 pounds if you in UK, so thats not balanced

[pale sigil]

If my account was in turkey I'd buy the ❤️ one.

[rough osprey]

oh wow that sucks

[pale sigil]

That's normal

[crimson wigeon]

Why would anyone buy that shit anyway

[rough osprey]

true

[marsh glade]

I know of at least one person who got one

[old marlin]

I know of 2

[marsh glade]

And it was absolutely the right decision

[old marlin]

at least

[rough osprey]

I was forced to

[old marlin]

kind of yea

[pale sigil]

I know 2

Poor buggers

True, peer pressure from Wooting.

Isn't Tony also financing Wooting through twitch

[marsh glade]

Tony directly drives a non-zero amount of Wooting's revenue

[rough osprey]

i bet wooting wouldn't survive without this

[cursive summit]

Is that technically allowed

[smoky frigate]

of course

[marsh glade]

A news source reporting on it would be

[cursive summit]

Well it's more like a direct download

No news I've seen on it yet

[marsh glade]

Let's uhh... Maybe not then 😛

[rough osprey]

🕵️

[cursive summit]

This should be fine

Nothing to trace it back

Discord, it's fine, trust

[vagrant pagoda]

again is it ps4 or ps5 pkg

[cursive summit]

Both

Initially some peeps ran ps4 packages on ps5

[smoky frigate]

epic. sounds like a good time to buy a ps5 now

[cursive summit]

But they made it work with ps5 packages too apparently

[cursive summit]

Old bundle editions ONLY

If you get a new revision you are probably fucked

Look for a ratchet and clank sealed bundle, if those are still around

[vagrant pagoda]

srouce?

[cursive summit]

Some of the oldest playstations in the market that should have old firmware

[vagrant pagoda]

ive never seen ps5 fpkg running

[cursive summit]

We know the drill

It's bad

[pale sigil]

Well

Tbf

[vagrant pagoda]

i mean

you can show a tweet or screen shot or something

im into the ps mod sence

[cursive summit]

Well I don't think so cause the tweet literally has a link in it

[vagrant pagoda]

and no one is talking about ps5 fpkg

[pale sigil]

I didn't wanna talk about it but the guy who notoriously jailbroken PS4 tweeted he claimed a bounty

And keep consoles old

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah for ps4 fpkg on ps5

[cursive summit]

It's this morning's news as far as I could gather

[vagrant pagoda]

yes

[smoky frigate]

about the mobile internet btw, a 60bux router + taping it to the attic window is pretty fine. getting 35-50ms in games, download speeds at around 70mbps. mayhaps I have misjudged 4G @cursive summit

[pale sigil]

Idk if I got that across

[wheat plume]

https://youtube.com/shorts/1EvNX2_4zfE

[cursive summit]

4G is ass though

[wheat plume]

🤔

[pale sigil]

But basically it seems the PS5 was exploited

For side loading

Wouldn't surprise me if PS4 pkgs worked on PS5 as people even backport games

[vagrant pagoda]

you can run most ps4 and lots of ps1/ps2 game in fpkg

[smoky frigate]

considering the price, it's mighty fine. when 5g gets cheaper I'll get a router for that. 70mbps is one of the better internet connections I have had up to this point, didn't think 4G could do it

[pale sigil]

https://twitter.com/stretchecho/status/1710071516937998606?s=46

[cursive summit]

Why not just get fiber

[smoky frigate]

don't have it in this neck of the woods

[pale sigil]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Hkj_JYgcdfs

There it is

[cursive summit]

That's prolly what I saw

[vagrant pagoda]

again nothing about ps5 fpkgs

[cursive summit]

Do PS5 games not come in fpkg format or something?

[smoky frigate]

this house doesn't even have a cable connection. 4G is my only choice, that or ultra shitty DSL at 6 mbit. no sir!

[pale sigil]

They do but it's the keys that are needed

Irrc

[vagrant pagoda]

they come in fpkg

[cursive summit]

We call that... starlink

[vagrant pagoda]

but ps4 run with a different container

running ps4 fpkg isnt a big deal as ps4 is broken

[smoky frigate]

naw no way that ain't laggy as hell

[vagrant pagoda]

you want ps5 fpkg

[pale sigil]

Keep your hopes as low as your firmware is the good olde saying.

[cursive summit]

I probably misinterpreted the tweet as "PS5 fpkg" as running ps5 fkpg's

[pale sigil]

Higher fps?

[cursive summit]

So, yeah no ps5 jailbreak yet

[pale sigil]

Yesnt

[vagrant pagoda]

i have a cfw ps4pro and a cfw ps3

ps5 is marginal over the pro for ps4 games

[pale sigil]

Same

Well PS4 normal

[vagrant pagoda]

i use my ps4 pro with vita to stream games

it works amazingly well still

[pale sigil]

The guy who exploited the PS4 multiple times tweeted the other week they submitted a bounty as he always does each time.

Don't update bla bla

Once it's complete he usually discloses itn

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah

[cursive summit]

A bounty as in, for Sony to patch?

[pale sigil]

Ye

[vagrant pagoda]

running ps4 fpkg helps find exploits

[cursive summit]

Well that's a bastard

[pale sigil]

Why?

[vagrant pagoda]

as now you have the entire ps4 library to find an expooit

the issue is to get this to work

[cursive summit]

The less patched these consoles are the better

[vagrant pagoda]

you need a ps4 game on your ps5

withouth psn

[cursive summit]

But eh money is good so whatever

[vagrant pagoda]

one that isnt disk based

the real jewel is when the bd expoit leads to code execution

[pale sigil]

If you're serious about jailbreaking you're on the version that can be jailbroken

[vagrant pagoda]

right now you can only run ps1/ps2 emu from the bd expoit

[cursive summit]

Is 4.50 the one everyone uses?

[vagrant pagoda]

for 4 or 5?

[cursive summit]

5 of course

[vagrant pagoda]

4 is 6.72

5 was 4.5, now its 4.03

[cursive summit]

How did the version number go down?

[vagrant pagoda]

the current expoit is for 4.03

to run any fpkg

[cursive summit]

Any?

[vagrant pagoda]

yes

so anything that runs on ps4

[cursive summit]

For the uninitiated, is this whole fkpg thing the same as, let's say Switch's nsp?

[vagrant pagoda]

fpkg is fake package

[cursive summit]

But not on PS5 eh?

[vagrant pagoda]

its how ps4 games get packaged for ps5

[cursive summit]

Ah

So no running PS5 games off an image of sorts yet

[vagrant pagoda]

yes

i keep saying that

it just removes the license check for fpkgs

[cursive summit]

Ew

You can't even run the game off a hard drive

Why did they stuff the logo on a 100$ hard drive anyways

[rough osprey]

are the missing npcs on that drive

[vagrant pagoda]

yoiuve been able to install pkg and fpkg if you had licences for them

[smoky frigate]

this is where they store all their wasted potential

[vagrant pagoda]

and there are "publicish" accounts with loads of licenses you can find

but it didnt work for ps4=

tl;dw of the video: no

[ashen spindle]

basically, amd released it too early, stuff needs to be fixed, some stuff is, try again in some days/weeks

[astral haven]

same could be said for dlss3 tho too

[ashen spindle]

yes

but amd setting their goal to a september release was just a shot in their own foot like so foten with forced software release dates

[astral haven]

it is nice to see that you can stack the two of them tho

the game one and the driver one

noticing something rather weird with the fsr3 output, it really looks like all of the frames are somewhat garbled when theres stuff not moving and other stuff moving

https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_exynos_2400_detailed__70_faster_cpu_xclipse_940_gpu_with_amd_rdna_3_graphics-news-60133.php

[cursive summit]

Lite was also a whole 100$-200$ less and came out much later

[crisp granite]

switch 2
who cares?

[frank wind]

Does the wooting keyboard processor have a cache?

[cursive summit]

Yes, there is on-board memory for saving profiles and configurations

[fading cloud]

as the comments say it needs Anti Aliasing

[frank wind]

In other words typed words on the keyboard may be present in the cache after it is unpowered?

[cursive summit]

Me

[cursive summit]

That is not how that works, no

On-board memory is strictly for saving configuration settings from Wootility, nothing else

[crisp granite]

that's hilarious

[frank wind]

Ok, so key pressed would not be saved at all in any way on the keyboard itself?

[cursive summit]

No, why would it

It's not some keylogger

[frank wind]

Perfect perfect tyty

I can convince my paranoid friend that he won't get keylogged

[cursive summit]

What

[smoky frigate]

of course, how do we verify that...

[cursive summit]

Ditch the conspiracist

[frank wind]

Well basically his concern is

If he yanks out a tails usb stick with a landyard which shuts down the entire system, could an attacker extract the last pressed keys from memory prior to that

Yes he is that kind of person

That has exposed hard drives and a strong neodymium magnet "to wipe data just in case"

[cursive summit]

Fymrin?

This you?

[frank wind]

Nah some French guy in an attic

[cursive summit]

No, you cannot really

[frank wind]

Good good

Was also curious

Also who is fymrin

They were paranoid like that?

[cursive summit]

@dawn epoch

Local paranoid cybersecurity expert

Emphasis on paranoid

Everything needs to be secure

[astral haven]

and not an emphasis on expert

[smoky frigate]

even if he is, nothing stops him from connecting a 90s PS/2 keyboard to type his important shit on... but then if he uses windows, that oughtta make him a lot more paranoid

[astral haven]

no but i dont claim to be

[cursive summit]

Oh what did they say

A fight is brewing

Good morning, Fym

I hope you get better hun

[frank wind]

Lmao

[cursive summit]

Go beat em real life viruses too

[frank wind]

Do u actually do those

Security measures

I mean you're using discord so I'm guessing you're not that paranoid

The guy I'm talking about forced me to download element matrix to talk to him

[cursive summit]

Everyone needs a get off, son

Fymrin is quite paranoid about digital security

"I moved everything to linux"

Signs of impending disaster

[empty wren]

You mean the fragmentation of Linux?

[frank wind]

Lol

So no tails?

[astral haven]

just use redhat /s

[frank wind]

No qubes?

[fading cloud]

I'm not dealing with this BS today, I have better things to do
Like making tea, eating bread with honey, or sleeping to get better
proceeds to type further

[frank wind]

Ok real question

How do you avoid phone number verifications

[empty wren]

That is may be false but I heard someone could just write their own good protection on Linux.

[cursive summit]

XEN???

Half-Life is leaking

[frank wind]

Can you teach me the ways

Im interested

Lmao

[fading cloud]

DOes tails allow for VM to be ran?
Like tails on the front inside is a more secure linux distro?

[astral haven]

you would want the other way around

[crisp granite]

jewish pennicillin
acquire and consume

[astral haven]

run something like xen as the secure os, running tails inside for the privacy

[frank wind]

How would you properly be secure on tails in that case?

Just never download anything ever no matter what even an image?

[cursive summit]

You wouldn't use linux

Linux has no security

[astral haven]

*linux desktop operating systems

[smoky frigate]

[astral haven]

linux the kernel is great to build secure appliances

i mean you arent wrong

the windows kernel has none of this either,

its just tools built on top

[cursive summit]

Well neither of us do so, if you think that's funny or clever, get better at it

No wonder you are constantly single

[crisp granite]

has it occurred to you
that perhaps because of what is going on in my life, that it might not be worth roping someone else into it?

perhaps not

You don't seem to think so either, so the answer's obvious

yea because if it doesnt apply to games, we dont care yet

[ashen spindle]

but its funny how people thought unreal would never do something like it lel

[astral haven]

people will only get mad when they can see how it will affect them

[ashen spindle]

yup

[astral haven]

but also this, it was weird

[pale sigil]

I wonder how much places like Lucasfilm pay to use unreal engine

[astral haven]

and it is definetly the best virtual production tool

[pale sigil]

Because they use it A LOT for TV

[astral haven]

apparently not enough

[pale sigil]

A lot of people use it for none gaming stuff tbf, id imagine there's a huge money pit of potential earnings

AAAAAAYYYY

@pale sigil

https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-rad-win-23-30-afmf-tech-preview

AFMF adds frame generation technology to DirectX® 11 and 12 games on AMD Radeon™ RX 7000 (and now 6000!) Series Desktop Graphics Cards.

Radeon 6000 getting driver level FSR3 on every single game

[ashen spindle]

no thats not fsr3

[cursive summit]

Oh so NOW it's not FSR3

When last time I told YOU it wasn't FSR3

[ashen spindle]

fsr3 is the non driver version

[cursive summit]

Oh shush

[ashen spindle]

but both use interpolation to fake frames

[cursive summit]

Anyways frame generation for 6000 series is amazing

Glad they figured it out

@ashen spindle Oh yeah

We discussed these mouse pads over a week ago.

[cursive summit]

Anti Lag+ for RX 6000 feasible then?

[ashen spindle]

probably not

[cursive summit]

If they figured out FMF for 6000, anti-lag+ should come too

[gusty kiln]

kek yeah @prisma crag posted it

[wheat plume]

They aren't mousepads though xd

[coarse cloak]

if you use them as mousepads they become mousepads

[reef patrol]

Good luck with that Microsoft.

[wheat plume]

Lemme guess
Any previous perpetual digital licenses will be canceled ?

[thick elk]

I think it may very well be feasible considering this exists on linux: https://github.com/ishitatsuyuki/LatencyFleX
This is basically modified nvidia reflex to work on all gpu's

[cursive summit]

Hmm?

That's cool, would be nice if it comes to Windows

[ashen spindle]

I think thats what anti lag does not anti lag+ which is more limited

[gusty kiln]

Still waiting for the day steamOS can be daily drivable for normies

[thick elk]

I don't know the exact details but this does more than antilag does.

[pale sigil]

Then again adobe.....

[thick elk]

Its not the same as reflex sure but still it seems to do more than antilag.

Could it be that antilag+ uses RDNA3 specific things, possible even likely but I do believe additional reduction over the current antilag implementation is very much possible on older amd hardware.

[misty saffron]

because you definitely pay for windows

[cursive summit]

You shall never know

[misty saffron]

imo this is a good thing

cheaper laptops with preinstalled windows, potentially

[smoky frigate]

oh this is based. I can't enable OG reflex on wow classic atm, but I think that's due to the game blocking it on wine, since proton does in theory support it...

so maybe that modded one will work

[thick elk]

It uses nvidia's api's to work just hte underlying implementation is different and works on amd.

I have not yet tried it though

[ashen spindle]

main poin is that it has nothing to do with frame interpolation so AFMF working on rdna2 doesnt mean anything if anti lag+ works or not

[smoky frigate]

it appears to integrate with proton nvapi.. the author warns against anticheat, but hell, I wanna try it lol

[thick elk]

That is true the two are very much not related

[smoky frigate]

single player? never heard of it

[thick elk]

It's also probably a disclaimer more than anything as messing with these types of things in a multiplayer game is a pretty big red flag for any anti cheat.

[smoky frigate]

the author mentions DXVK, but I'm using vkd3d.. oh well

I have heard of the starfield and I think of the marios before!

(but no I unironically have not played cyberpunk, I never got into any cdpr game)

tbh, how much lag is there to be reduced

[thick elk]

I have cyberpunk installed and played the witcher triology though never finished the third game, maybe someday.

I can tell you about the Witcher 1, playing the pre enhanced edition on a Pentium 4 was rough, you really could have 15 minute loading times

[smoky frigate]

that first game was rough lol

never got very far into it, not into any witchers.

[thick elk]

Enhanced edition made it a lot better and I did quite enjoy it, maybe more so than the later games.

It's installed but not yet started it, maybe tonight.

[smoky frigate]

I pirated it for my gf when it released and she played it, it looked alright. my poor Vega 56 got put through the ringer by it. I will probably give it a go myself one of these days

[thick elk]

I have stopped pirating on pc for some time now, consoles I pirated for longer but sort-off decided against it but still sort of unsure what my exact position is.
On the one hand I am a strong believer in being allowed to use my system as I want.
On the other hand my modded switch is probably banned from buying games legitimately.
So dlc / updates I cannot buy at all, in that sense I feel warranted to pirate.
Retail games I can also buy retail.

Besides that if I were to pirate a multi-platform game on switch even if digital only, it would deprive me from buying it on a different system. this same logic could also be extended to exclusive but rather that I play / buy those instead of playing a pc game.

For now I have landed on the following philosophy.
If a game is available retail and I am fine buying it retail and pirating updates. DLC I should generally simply not use unless I really want to play it and the game is switch exclusive.

Pirating a multi-platform game is only fine if I already bought the pc version before playing, that being said I'd probably rather play those on deck.

Legacy systems I feel is mostly fine, as noone has any expectation of new first sales for those systems and an updated port is a different product.

In practice it has been somewhat easy as I have not had the intention of playing any switch games ever since I got my steam deck.

Random qlumposting I know.

[smoky frigate]

oof, I have no such qualms, I am a bastard. but I do buy everything I enjoy

[thick elk]

I was there, especially as a kid I had little pocket money but over the years I have been thinking about these things more and have come to different conclusions, especially now that I have a lot more disposable income.

There are still things I pirate such as tv-shows and music but my position may move there.

For music it's the generally low value musicians get when streaming it.
For TV shows its my low consumption and dislike for streaming services that make me feel okay about it.

[coarse cloak]

I do buy stuff if it's not overpriced and I enjoy enough to want to support the developer/company

[astral haven]

i get most of my games by buying it on humble bundle

I leave the default cut

[coarse cloak]

like Daniel Mullins' games, The Hex & Pony Island, played them and then decided to buy after loving them

[thick elk]

For me the biggest own against pirating things that are overpriced is that time spend playing those games, that deprive me from buying / playing games that are not overpriced.

[coarse cloak]

i only buy if its on promo tho ngl

[thick elk]

Honestly Humble bundle back at the start was what drew me away from piracy, be it slowly at first.

[coarse cloak]

humblebundle is great

[smoky frigate]

since I went away from windows, getting pirate copies to run is an arse and a half anyway. so I'm buying more than I ever did on winders. go figure

[thick elk]

Humble bundle has mostly been meh at best in the last couple of years.

[astral haven]

ive been subbed for 3 years now i think

[thick elk]

I am subbed to monthly / choice yea but I mostly just skip months.

[astral haven]

every once in a while it gets something good, and the 20% discount on any game pretty much is really nice

[coarse cloak]

oh fr? I used to use it a LOT in like, 2017/2018/2019

after that I never opened it cause i wasnt gonna get a sub and stopped farming cheap game bundles for my account

[astral haven]

yea their subscription service usually has 1 washed out AAA, and a game each from a variety of genres

[coarse cloak]

for me that sounds good enough since i barely play any games

[thick elk]

I just have an rss feed or two with free games on epic and game bundles.

So I decide from there.

[astral haven]

I will embrace it

Already a thing?

how much ai you want v?

smart autocomplete?

[cursive summit]

I mean, it's already a thing?

A lot of companies are embracing AI tools already

Still need programmers but AI assist is very much becoming rapidly a thing

[astral haven]

how good an ai you want lel
asus AI suite already exists

heck its probably the most widely deployed ai that isnt a recommendation engine or a chatbot

sure
didnt work, but it had that option

actually not sure about 1:1, dont think it had that much granularity

prolly just set 6400 and it did its best

[empty wren]

Asus already has that

[astral haven]

not you too lel

[empty wren]

https://www.asus.com/microsite/motherboard/Intelligent-motherboard/AI-Overclocking.html

[empty wren]

Eh I do not care for it

[astral haven]

oh icic not what i meant

[empty wren]

From what I heard manual overclocking is hardware longevity wise better

[astral haven]

yea, especially if you stick to the minimum required voltage

asus auto volts is a meme that predates their ai stuff...

[empty wren]

Armoury crates sucks though

Plugged in a chamber fan it completely broke then 5 months later Asus updated it lol

[astral haven]

definetly
especially the part where it installs itself automatically just like the razers do

[empty wren]

I definitely did not have that happen from what I recall

Maybe this is a prebuilt issue

[astral haven]

yea lucky you
my board at least had the option to disable it

ws x570 ace

a fkn ws board with autoinstalling virusware

[cursive summit]

https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2023/10/valves-leaked-steam-deck-model-1030-probably-isnt-a-full-version-2-0/

[empty wren]

Does ace mean anything special?

[astral haven]

not pro

[cursive summit]

I've heard very confusing things about model 1030

[astral haven]

pro boards have management

ace is just slightly lower end

[empty wren]

Oh you mean over locking capabilities

[cursive summit]

Some say it's some kind of dock or whatever

Not even a new revision of the deck

I doubt there's a new "revised" Deck coming

It's prolly some accessory

[astral haven]

its not about overclocking capabilities
its just asus calls their boards for workstations that are meant to be super stable "WS"
and my board has that name yet it has that autoinstalling virus

[empty wren]

Ah lol

[astral haven]

disableable unlike the razers

[empty wren]

Do all brand motherboards come with the ram software and other stuff Asus has built into theirs in the bios?

[astral haven]

kinda sorta

[empty wren]

Alright

[astral haven]

all the options are available on the others

but gigabyte and biostar for example dont properly organize all the options

just the most used ones

[empty wren]

Oh

not sure if biostar has the options available in a submenu, but gigabyte has them, mostly with unintelligible names for all the rare stuff

if you poke down deep enough in asus you can usually find a few unintelligible ones, but its even for some nescessary stuff on giga

[empty wren]

Nothing seemed weird on my z690 but there was maybe too many options

[astral haven]

yea its only for some of the terts and training reconfig settings

but some of those are nescessary...

at least for best performance

[empty wren]

Speaking of training do you mean like fan curve testing

[astral haven]

no i mean memory training

[empty wren]

Oh okay I think I seen something like that

[astral haven]

there are always hidden settings that cant be manually set, or are far too much work to manually set, and you can somewhat modify how the training completes

not that ive ever used that, but ive seen some folks using it

[empty wren]

Gonna have to read about em later I definitely want to try an overclock, especially my Intel gpu

Arc 770LE

[astral haven]

thats not gonna require bios tho lel

[empty wren]

Right but it will not hurt to do it all at once right?

Or do I need to run one component for a few months

[astral haven]

uh if you accidentally have one thing unstable, its a nightmare to find

[empty wren]

Okay then

I do know I am not properly overclocking my memory

I had to reset the bios when I first built my PC like 5 times

But memory is quite complex it seems there are timings, voltages ect ect

[astral haven]

yup

what cpu?

[empty wren]

12700K

[astral haven]

d5 i presume?

[empty wren]

You mean ddr5?

[astral haven]

ye

[empty wren]

Yep

CL30

[astral haven]

yea integral hasnt updated their guide on overclocking for ddr5

its mostly the same, but all the numbers besides the voltage are different

(same process)

[empty wren]

Per CPU or per brand?

[astral haven]

for ddr5

[empty wren]

Like I know one cpu might be binned better

Oh

[astral haven]

the instructions are generic enough to apply to everything

but it doesnt have ddr5 specific info like infinity fabric clocks,, memory chip expected performance, known good voltages for ddr5 cpus, etc

[empty wren]

Infinity fabric is amd related right?

[astral haven]

yea should have said northbridge since i knew you were intel

[empty wren]

I mean I thought Intel did not have it

[astral haven]

with intel you dont have to worry about it

because higher is better as long as it is stable

[empty wren]

Is it true ddr5 still sucks on amd

[astral haven]

infinity fabric is alot jankier and slower, and thus is also more important

[empty wren]

I heard that there was a certain limit
