you really wont
smartphones (on the android side) have some insane options
Now I will go with phone ?
Ummm
Do u think phone can make a yt videos
easily
honestly taking photos i much prefer using an actual camera over a smartphone since the ergonomics are just way better plus the user experience when it comes to controlling the settings
Yeah
his videos are not that impressive visually
mkbhd actually spends the time
When u capture some details , it somehow feels weird to see
and a phone is never going to match an output of an apsc or fullframe sensor anytime soon even with all the software help
?
all problems that are cheaper to fix on phone than to buy a camera
youd be surprised
if your camera cant record raw video, smartphones can surpass them now at least at the wide end
im talking about photography
This one is tru , but I do think cameras got their own advantage that phone don't have ?
not videography
computational photography can do massive things for photos
olympus does them but noone else does things that are easy pz on phone
I imagine this on "Samsung"
nah you do it yourself in post
and its still going to look like shit at a large scale because thats the limitation of the sensor and lens combo on smartphones
record raw video, then you process it how you want
again youd be surprised
a ton of the annhialation of detail is from sharpening then compressing to hell
capture the raw data and you can do some incredible stuff
watch me capture you raw
like if you want good ergos on a phone to capture photos it starts getting bulky real quick without any of the benefits a mirrorless camera has
I do think sensor is the most problem , u got good lense but with limited sensor , whatever how good it is I don't think it will reach the camera lvl
Smal sensor can't capture well on details ?
Or no
uh not necessarily
again youd be surprised
a nice grip is a heck of alot cheaper than a camera with a nice grip
we're not talking about price tho
Wdym
everything's gonna limit you at one point but you can get pretty nice images with the right setup but not the greatest sensor
small sensor does actually have serious advantages for detail in an image
if you want to capture as much in focus on a larger sensor, you need a much smaller f number
and the same f number gets you the same light
so an f16 that you need to match an f1.8 on a smaller sensor will be massively lower dynamic range if you cant get a long enough shutter
and the f16 will have serious diffraction issues even at 12 megapixels
and the tiny sensor will still have more in focus
But now shet phone does great quality on picture , this is real , I opened a 50mp stuff and it can does better than my s10e
dont get me wrong, a mirrorless can smack around phone images depending on the scenario
Uhhh sorry my bad English , I do try to capture landscape with my s10e honestly , is bad , not so good , but the close details is def 10000% better at this point
using the samsung app?
Uhhh yeah , all is manual
Yes shet is bad
gcam mods sometimes get rid of the sharpening without going too manual
so heres how you get good images
for landscape
iphone 13 pro in raw still looks like shit
iphone doesnt make raws available
Tbh , the reason why I love the captured from Sony phone is because , they are so original
they just repack heifs
I remember it has
just like samsung "expert raw"
they take a regular picture, then package it as if its a raw
So u mean is fake + useless raw
Samsung got raw for quite a long time though
the sensor data has been denoised over and then sharpened, making it useless for postprocessing
Since s10e
are you sure about that ?
iphone proraw is raw + image processing
It alredy exist
theres also using 3rd party apps
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motioncam.pro
this cuts all the processing
But need to pay I believe
yea theres a free version
Wait free version got full features
free version limitation is no processing on phone, and limited clips
Somehow not convincing
works great for photos tho
image processing is the biggest factor in taking pictures with a smartphone, you don't really want to cut that out
i thought so too until recently
Sometimes original is better
Process photo is always a no if u want to do expert stuff
48mp proraw is really good
I see
Ummm
it gets slaughtered by 12 megapixel true raws from my phone
Willl wait to get 13t pro
and yes i have a 15 pro and a s21 ultra
is it possible to set a macro that just spams a button?
not with wootility
its a great phone its just samsung took the cripple hammer to the raws
ah alright thanks
either take a look at wootomation or other macro softwares
And their auto mode not good
Like everything is over processed
I mean if u just want fast pic
yep
are you spending most of your time pixel peeping images? @astral haven
just coming across that way
also if you want to do "expert stuff" and want to use a phone, you are doing something wrong
for the average person, smartphone camera is more than enough
Tbh , I always use phone to do something like this , is pointless but I have a lot of fun for doing so, let me show u guys
i thought so too but now androids can shoot raw
the game has changed
camera will beat a smartphone in every scenario, just look at the size difference
Introducing 'Epic Worlds' starring Emma Myers and directed by Zee Ntuli. This short film is captured entirely with the Galaxy S23 Ultra. Learn more: http://smsng.co/S23Ultra_Emma_Main_yt
#TeamGalaxy #GalaxyS23 Ultra #Samsung
raw also isnt going to help a bad photo
Is fun when u do something like this even though is pointless
ofc not
but it limits how bad processing can mess up a shot
and it uncaps the limitations that the stock processing lands you with
was that actually captured strictly with the phone or with external lens like companies have done in the past ?
strictly with the phone!!!
is there a behind the scene setup ?
they used a pretty serious rig and they did not use the stock app, but you can see in the behind the scenes
Yeah I have to admit for this one , but who knows in the future I need a camera or not , I somehow think that way do I need a camera before when I am editing my stuff , if is not enough maybe I will get a camera then , if not I will think i Will stay with phone
again tho this is a misconception
a smartphone is a camera
and many of them are extremely capable ones
What is a misconception
i dont expect them to use the stock apps i mean apple for their recent one was using blackmagic i think along with the usual lighting setups they would use for any other cameras
that a camera will beat in every scenario
blackmagic app doesnt get you anything better tho results wise just makes it more convenient for pros
U mean overall use ?
yep
the phone can fit into places the larger cams cant
thinner
lighter
far more lenient focus
much more light for deep focus
but most importantly, its its more often on you
thats one very narrow area then
not talking about the phone being with you at all times tho
landscape and street are pretty major categories
And one of the advantage is , u can capture everything u see , when u don't have a big camera by ur side , I found this a big advantage
Like when ur inspiration kicks in , u can take out ur phone and capture it
Anyways , before I poof
I wonder , general video content 13t pro will not be a problem right ? @astral haven
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fP8LC4b11oY&t=9s
to be clear they rigged it up to the nth degree, but it was still raw capture from the phone

#TeamGalaxy #GalaxyS23 Ultra #Samsung
So that I can convince myself to say no to sony phone
Is stunning tbh , somehow proof that skills > hardware
wont be a problem, but i highly recommend going for the ultra
the matched sensors, the telephoto, all real sweet
well lets be clear, the s23u is a damn expensive peice of kit
Uhhh , what If I just don't like to spend more for that ?
Yeah , their ultra is always expensive
it is and it isnt
depends what you're comparing it to
its very expensive in absolute terms compared to the monthly income of the median human
Tbh I somehow think those videos are telling ppl
that depends on country tho
U don't need to spend tons of money to get there
U can use Less to do more
I assume
yes
but for the average human, its over half the yearly per capita income
yep
the s23u has 4 lenses
I wonder does phone got pro kit ?
currently the s23u is $500 aud cheaper compared to the 15pro max
Like holder something like that
thats not saying much
and inline roughtly what a basic mirrorless camera kit would be like
compared to the base 15 its pretty major
the zoom is a complete night and day difference even vs the 14 pro max
How about compared from 14 pro
I See
then you should compare the same for same with samsung instead of comparing one high end with 1 entry level
the main camera is better but still somewhat limited
kinda silly at that point
the 15 is a 14 pro
shifting goal posts
very minor changes
14pro is still more expensive here compared to the s23u
and only $100 less to the 15pro max
for the same quality pictures yea
but they arent that much more expensive than the flagships on the android side
not always depends
all the flagships seem to hover around the same range
and sony also likes to throw that out the window
charging an insane amount for their phones
U mean , Android is not always expensive than iPhone ?
its just do you want android or ios
android is always available for cheaper
and you can get better quality out of it if you work hard enough
but the iphone is a kind of guarantee
tho the se is atrocious
and there are phones at that price that run circles around the iphone flagships
Bet is because of "creator phone" is for prosumer ,not for consumer
at least for main camera photo and video
also at the end of the day unless its a tech person or another photographer thats curious no one is going to give a shit about what its taken or filmed on
^
Maybe is for iOS enjoyer ?
So se still exist
For the ppl who want cheap
But still lives ios
Loves
my work buys them, we pay $70 each for em
real good deal
se is for the small and the iphone
its a complete tragedy for taking photos and videos
but thats not what its for
So u can buy a camera if u just like the big camera right?
No way I ask a weird questions
big camera gives you more options
Why is so cheap u mean latest iPhone SE
yea
apple put the expensive processor in to make it not slow
everything else is competitive with $100 androids
Yeah
buy what you want to use since at the end of the day you're the one who has to live with it
yep
doubt it
And then ppl ditch iPhone 17 for se 2025
"performance"
it didnt really perform better
thats not a bad thing since the gen 2 performed excellently besides IO
I somehow wonder , does se last whole day , since the CPU change but the battery still stay the same
Thanks!
Yeah , thanks about the suggestion tbh
my se would be dead on sunday after putting it in my backpack on friday
the power is low, but the battery is tiny
and the chip is very very powerful
the battery life is good but its just too small
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60y5pMVFt-o
but yea phones vs full frame
closer than youd think...

Of course Panasonic is better over all but ...
like its immediately obvious which is which when you know to check, but π
the s1h is over 50x the price
moonstone is what you went with right?
Uhhh , only 1 day , usually phone can survive few days when u didn't use isn't it
No way lg
yea
i really shouldve bought a 4090
they're expensive now
y'all know how USB 3 slots are faster than USB2 slots?
What if I have only a little data to pass through, e.g. my keyboard.
Will my keyboard have the same or more input lag if I put it on USB 2 slot instead of 3?
No difference whatsoever.
3 to 4 is massive improve
They are only faster in data rates, not in latency/input lag
And besides 480Mbps USB2 provides is way more data rate than tens of keyboard would need
Strong enough to compete with thunderbolt 3
Means that for laptop users is a big upgrade
For desktop users is nothing
There is still functionally no reason a keyboard needs USB3 let alone 4
Who needs fast USB when SATA is hot-swappable 
Thunderbolt might help with latency since you are wired to PCIe at that point, maybe, not too sure
USB2 does it job though
Not for a keyboard.
Ah yeah
It literally couldn't care less.
U r right
Ancient stuff
It's funny how the best iPod is an LG V20 or whatever was that overbeefed phone with a stronk DAC
Basically all LGs V20+ I think, they were nice
This story is weird
So Altman is already hired by Microsoft
Yet he publicly said he already wants to return to OpenAI?
Then why is the whole team resigning lol
Wasn't it "it's either Altman and Co. or the rest of the board" kind of situation?
It is
Altman already moved on lol
He's at Microsoft now
But then why is Altman saying that he wants to go back to OpenAI already
Why is the OpenAI team STILL petitioning for board to quit and rehire Altman
When OpenAI has a new CEO now
And why is Ilya Sutskever, the one that came up with this whole thing of firing Altman, suddenly doing a 180 and petitioning to work with Altman again and kick out the board

I don't think anyone knows what's going on lol
Maybe it's some kind of 5D chess ending with Altman on a safe seat and with OpenAI under Microsoft?
Ilya kickstarted this
Ilya was always pro-safety and Altman is pro-money-fuck-safety
So naturally, Ilya wants Altman out, and got the rest of the board on his side
Then why is Ilya now backing down on Altman to return and also wants his board colleagues fired?
The weird part is also that apparently after some allegations Microsoft wanted him gone from open ai
Not to be cynical but almost as if they wanted to take over open ai and all employees, they already have access to the dataset
I do think that Google has a better AI team than OpenAI currently
Ilya back at Google would be fun
Actually shot in space (real)(not fake)
If you'd like me to design a mod similar to this for your mouse of choice, let me know! I've been really enjoying designing in CAD and that'll give me more content to make/stuff I can offer. Eventually I'll make a guide on how to design your own but I promi...

actually shared the files even
optimum in shambles again 
gaming mice are becoming a meme with the lightness obsession
At this point you can just take Viper's PCB and stick it to your hand, boom, the lightest mouse
I mean this thing just purely exists out of spite

theres already been a few who have done the 10g to 15g range
a really lightweight mouse is great if you fingertip otherwise the weight does get uncomfortable quick even more so if the mouse isnt balanced well
at that point just work out instead
still doesnt change the weight tho
but it makes it less of an issue for you
im use to ftip on a 60g mouse already but if i have to pick between one thats lighter or the 60g im going to pick the lighter one its just more comfortable overtime
its also a very different feeling to use when gaming
so he made a shorter version π€
man
never know thta fiio will coming out something like this
moondrop got one too

wait why do you even need a DAC in a keyboard
that has to be a joke
i mean i dont use a DAC but wouldnt it be better to have a standalone one if you are gonna use one?
Saves you having it sit on your desk. Very niche but there's an application.
plus theres not much point in a dedicated dac imo i find the onboard audio jack works fine

Well you just made it super clear that you're not the target audience right there π
a good use for one though might be for surround
yep i know

but i was unsure what the point of it was but it makes sense for saving desk space
some people wire DACs up to amps though which might get rid of the desk space saving stuff so it seems like its a niche of a niche
actually i think i just realized something
the moon river 2 in the moondrop board btw
wouldnt a keyboard like that be good if you're like using kb/m on console and want a DAC
consoles already have issues with peripheral support
keyboard with a dac seems like a nice idea to me
keyboard with a dac seems like a niche idea to me
i'd use it
I personally wouldn't
seems annoying to move your keyboard with another cable stuck out one side
i don't move my keyboard anyways
Death adder v3 pro or Logitech g pro x superlight 2? (Logitech is 10$ cheaper in my country)
i'd go the g pro x superlight 2 tbh if its cheaper
from what i hear its a good mouse
also razer synapse makes me want to pop a blood vessel
At this point it's down to what mouse feels better in your hand
Although I'd lean towards DeathAdder, considering how GHub abysmal is
ghub is kinda awful too but at least with ghub you can set a config and forget it and tell it to never open on startup again
also razer synapse sneaks into your device like malware, it can even inject itself before windows installs itself
the Dav3 is a pretty big mouse
gpx is a super safe shape
Tsuki, you're right
Pontan, go with SuperLight and use Logitech's OOM instead of GHub https://support.logi.com/hc/en-us/articles/360059641133-Onboard-Memory-Manager 
wait whats OOM
onboard memory manager
its goat
if its ghub without all the bloat i might switch over to it
ghub is trash
Pretty much 
oom just saves the settings on the mouse and thats it
I forgot about it completely
"OnBoard Memory Manager (OMM) is a utility for pro gamers to quickly view, customize, and fine-tune the onboard memory of a compatible Logitech G mouse. "
welp imma have to uninstall ghub
Iβm currently using a glorious model d but it seems to often double click and Iβm upgrading my whole setup so why not a mouse as well. The model d has roughly the same proportions as the DAV3 and I love the feel of the glorious but I canβt say anything as I have never tried any other shapes ever
get uninstalled bozo im gonna get OMM
Whatβs OOM?
I've literally linked it 
Onboard Memory Manager
the thing is glorious mice double clicking like mad is actually a selling point (they got crazy popular with minecraft pvpers because of how consistently they do that)
wonder how that happened
Yeah well I donβt even own minecraft and I didnβt know that but in my opinion itβs kinda annoying
fair enough but you're basically memeing if you dont expect a glorious mouse to double click rampantly
theyre very well known for doing that
well, might not have known it
Lmao I actually didnβt know about the fact it double clicked but my bad then
not everyone follows and keeps up with mouse related stuff
also only became popular for minecraft quite a while post release
avg person just buys stuff and use it
i am gonna admit though my current mouse is heavier than my model o
cause its a g502x (i got the wired version because the x revision's wired model doesnt weigh like an insano)
G502 is great 
i think its roughly around 70-80g closer to the lower end
I canβt say anything as itβs the only mouse Iβve ever used but yeah from my experience itβs a decent mouse but Iβll probably notice the difference if I decide to buy a Logitech or deathadder now
like i once saw a streamer playing cod on pc at 40fps the experience was worse then playing on console but they didnt even notice
was ~80 iirc?
not bad
imo g502 shape still sucks anyways
but it ain't horrible 
my first gaming mouse was an ergo (razer basilisk) so its not too foreign a shape to me
I love G502 shape, feels like made to my hand
ah
I can show you mine, you'll never want to try out G502 after that 
oh lmao
how bad is it
so slightly below most EC1 versions
at least its not over 100g like the wireless ones
i am going to admit the unlockable scrollwheel is really nice too for some specific things
thing is
keychron m6? also has it
that thing is wireless and 78g
i really want to try this
triple the scrolling action
this is the only mouse i want to try https://www.reddit.com/r/MouseReview/comments/17iph6c/pengrip_22g_titanium_fingertip_mouse_10ms_faster/
that one looks super interesting
I shucked the cable and hot-glued USB-C connector
It has the glides made out of some random transparent foil
It has small plastic bit glued to it to make it easier to reach buttons on the side of left click
And it weighs close to 200g 
sounds amazing
So yeah, it took me a while to switch to dav3 
design award winner
@astral haven!!
?
Problem?
I mean, keeps users from leaving it plugged in killing the battery atleast
you would think that wouldnt you
just add an annoying popup telling people to unplug it 
Today I decided to design a fix to Apple's biggest design flaw on the Magic Mouse and the way you charge it....but Tim Cook really took me for a wild ride on this one.

you see texan german makes sense... look up pennsylvanian dutch.....
you wont believe how stupid it is
What makes the Logitech superlight 2 better than the DAV3?
preference about the coating
someones buyers remorse prob
you dont have to buy the adapter if you want more than 1k polling out of the box
shape
but shape is subjective so 
Yeah thatβs a plus but other than that polling rate dongle they both seem to perform the same and they cost about the same cuz the superlight 2 is on 25% discount
the funny thing about pennsylvania dutch is that its not based on dutch but german yet they call it dutch
The US is funny like that. They also couldn't tell the difference between Danish, Norwegian and Swedish, so some community names and areas just wildly don't match up who immigrated there.
you cant go wrong with either
just go with the shape you like best
my gf explained to some texans that shes from the netherlands and they were like oh thats with sweden right?
"oh you are from texas, that is with california, right?"

this is the most hilarious thing though
Have never tried the Logitech shape so is it safer to go with the deathadder? As said I currently have an glorious model d which has pretty much identical shape to the DAV3
imagine your neighbour doesnt want the euro so you become a pp
well the gpx shape is prob one of the safest shapes out there tbh
it seems to work for most people
(norway has since been added so the euros dont have a pp on them)
Alr + a lot of pros use gpx so they gotta be doing something right
still looks like a pp
I never noticed. Not like we handle euros ever here, except if you live right on the German border.
just more cartoony
its only like pre norway joining so pre 2007
basically all 1999-2006 coins have it
basically EU borders vs continental europe
Whatβs this program?

Are 19 cm hands considered big?
How 19cm measured?
if thats the width or thickness yes
Not really
From the tip of my middle finger to the part under the end of the hand idk what the name is so yeah in length
19cm long is like, slightly above average I think
My hand is 20.5cm 
Keep in mind Iβm 14 though
Yeah that's not that special
Not what I said but most probably my hands will keep growing for some more time
My hands were around the same size at that age, they just haven't really grown since
Not really, they'll grow 0.5~1cm at most
I had 18/19cm hands at 14, I'm 19 now and their 20/21cm
Im also short and stopped growing a while ago though
You measuring the length from top of middie to wrist?
From the end of middle finger to the end of hand, through the middle
Hm, you peeps either have large hands or I'm smol
Barely reaching 20, my height is 203
19cm is average for men
π€·
I have long fingers, my hand isn't that big
20 is long
1cm above average, not really
Mine are 20.5x8.5cm 
Just above the thumb
Is it true that hand size is related to your length as in full body length
Eh, I dunno, I have long hands, but I'm 181cm
here
Not at all
I'm 5'9
Dang alr average βevidenceβ lie
Ah
Did everyone in my class hit puberty early or smth cuz like thereβs 2 short ppl and everyone else is like 6'1 and taller one of my friends is 6'3
I hit 5'9 and just stopped growing
Because my parents are both short asf
My dad's like 5'5 mom is 5'7
Both my grandmother's are like 5'2>
So your like the tallest in the family
Not at all
I just got shafted genetics wisd
Most of the men from both sides are 6ft +
Ah alr
On my dad's side some of the men are like 6'8
Wow thatβs hella tall
can you use real measurements instead
5'5 = 5m50cm 
I don't measure my switch weights on 0.00006735 pounds or whatnot

ill make one
hi
just have a txt file on your desktop huh
Lamzu thorn or superlight 2?
So does the superlight
Saving 50 bucks on it
then order both :D
Nice
Windows scheduler being another hindrance yet again?
Thought they patched it scaling badly with lots of cores already
If only Wayland wasnt completely borked with Nvidia
Need VRR with multi monitors
I wish, too broken to daily.
Skill issue
Was probably using ancient Debian on x11 and some other weird shit
Maybe entirely wrong driver
Or very dated one
I can do 144hz 1440p on amd on linux just fine
Being able to do mixed refresh rates and adaptive sync multi monitor really makes a huge difference
nvidia + plasma wayland = garbage
Yep
And x11 with anything is garbage
Once they fix Wayland support or I get AMD I'll try to switch again, even then idk a bunch of games don't work still.
Suppositly hyprland works better with nvidia according to my brother
Still the control panel doesn't even work under wayland or xwayland
No VRR with multi monitors = π
Mixed refresh rate is a worse problem to have imo
Should have xwayland explicit sync support soon tho
Not on Wayland
But yeah lol
Of course problem when being hard stuck on X11
To be fair it's not just Nvidia, I am still getting multiple pings a week for a bug I reported on kde with krunner crashing on wayland + nvidia so there is that.
I'd love to use an AMD GPU for a bit so I could try Linux for realz
But I'd probably find 5 other deal breakers
π
I already worked around Nvidia for a few years before switching and it mostly felt like an improvement, even when the drivers for my 7900xt were not that mature at the time.
Not saying AMD is perfect on linux but in general usage it gives me less headaches than Nvidia.
multi monitor on X11 with nvidia is fine with some config effort. not with VRR tho. but that's okay, display hz = fps can be reached by other measures
if you look for them, probably. what do you want from your OS?
I had montors at 165hz, 144hz and 60hz, so not ideal, same with VRR. On the desktop especially, games could make use of the higher refresh rate, and I did sometimes for VRR disable everything but my primary monitor.
Sadly that came with another problem, my 2 gigabyte monitors constantly try to reconnect themselves unless you turn them off, which triggers an update of the active displays / update of the panels. So really not ideal or stable.
ic. I have a monitor with 360hz and one with 59.96 (cheap HDMI to vga converter lol), got rid of the tearing on the second one by forcing full composition pipeline on it
in hind sight locking my high refresh rate ones to 120 could have made the desktop feel smoother? I don't know, but either way I am happy with my current setup on wayland.
It was not like I was going to keep my GTX 1080 for longer anyway.
as you pointed out, the second issue can't be blamed on either X11 or nvidia.. just the circumstance of having to disable them
At no point am I blaming, I am just stating that my personal experience has been a lot smoother on AMD.
was the desktop locked to the lowest hz?
hm.. games used to lock to lowest hz for me, unchecking "Allow Flipping" was the solution. with these settings, it's great. admittedly, it was an arse to get the knowledge π
for desktop AMD is far better, agree. but I would still pick nv for games
it's fun
I think I remember, __GL_SYNC_DISPLAY_DEVICE=DP-0 in /etc/environment/ fixed that
syncs to specified display, problems weren't
can you put this monitor on a monitor arm?

it has vesa 100 mounts
close enough
what does that mean?
vesa 100 mount means theres mounting points in a 100x100mm distance on the back
center of the monitor
vesa has 100 and 70 options for monitors
In other words yes it supports desk /wall mounts

so this monitor arm will be fine with it?
nay they got more
It litterally says Vesa 100x100mm in the description
but usually TVs get the bigger ones
what is good here
So it should be perfect?
i wouldnt use those
That would be perefectly fine in that regard yea
if your pc supports win11 natively leave it at that
otherwise you might get no updates or software issues
had this way too often when win11 was new
Im just new in gaming setups i have never had any gaming setup or pc with monitor
ye
okii
ideally use microsofts tool to make the win11 stick
So here I am, back to rufus
and then remove stuff after the install if you want bloat gone
since youre in the eu you also can always create a local account by just saying no to MS
or not connecting internet during setup
both good options
Oh so no internet?
i usually do no connect cause less clicks
I will do that then
and then once its in windows i can connect
On windows pro you can say set up for business use, join a domnain, local
i have pro
something like that
But I wont join a domain
yeah its a workaround
The option actually doesn't join a domain
windows makes a local account if you say join a domain and dont specify a domain
if you don't set up a domain, you just say I want to join a domain sometime in the future
It doesn't even ask you to specify
well it does
by username
the standard has been username@domain for years now
smth smth backwards compatibility and keeping old dialogues around
It asks for the username, but not for the domain part, at least last I tried it
as mentioned youd just write username@domain as the username
thats also how you login to the local pc if the pc is domain joined
the local pc is its own "domain"
Ah, I just write down a normal username without an @ at that point, fair enough. Functionally it does not seem to matter much.
yeah if you leave out the @domain part it just makes a local user
cause it auto appends the PC name as the domain
Interesting developments in the OpenAI saga
Seems Ilya Sutskever might have been a scapegoat all along

69420
use case means what software you run
what even are those numbers
no idea
God-damn AM5 motherboards are pricy.
yea
at least you can get them for 100ish nowadays if you just need the basics
not like lga1700 is any cheaper now
both kinda suck sadly
if u can wait .. wait a bit ryzen 8000 projected q1 2024


I don't think that'll make things cheaper. Because then I'll just want to buy 8000 series.
(That's what I'm looking at)
what prices are you seeing
at the high end, yes
Low end boards ainβt bad though
Don't want to cheap out TOO much with a 7800X3D
I mean due to the extra vcache they do run lover voltage so the vrms being less is just fine
so if anything they make it easier to cheap out on a board lol
in the end the same thing applies, look what you need in terms of ports and slots and then look at the cheapest one that checks all the boxes and 9/10 times that works
Too used to A chipsets being utter garbage π
on intel they still kind are and there you also do want better vrms for better chips lol
but yeah if you only start looking now probably better to wait for next gen anyway
Fair.
@prisma crag @hardy idol https://amzn.eu/d/1Y1B15r approval?
Yeah we don't do Black Friday or anything like that for real electronics.
Wera is usually pretty good
I also like PB Swiss for screwdrivers
but i myself would go for wera too
I want a good ratchet without breaking the bank
Not... really no.
that wera is going to serve you well
Does anyone know who or what products use Nordic semiconductor chips?
My Stanley screwdriver has lasted me 15 years
I want to replace it mainly due to the bits missing and storage at the top being fucked
@hardy idol strong magnet?
wha
who buying
How could he support nfts lol
think the nft is just a relic that will be ignored lol
Power button illumination leaks into the chassis
I'll have to stop that
And the optane has green LEDs
Maybe there's software to disable those idk
tbh it's probably not possible become it's an enterprise product
Get a Tekton ratchet set
High quality for a good price
....
tekton won't beat wera
Bro $180 is cheap as hell for a full ratchet set like that
and that's a whole set
If you want a really good one you're looking at 500+ easy
As a tool collector
Are you also a tradie? π
BELZER FTW
it's very collectible nowadays becomes of their exceptional quality
exceptional quality that came with a high price
It was the best.
niice
But now I've seen blue collars use fucking chinesium tools
And that's the reason why we can't have nice things anymore
seriously
People don't pay for quality and rather replace the product 7 times and more
yuppp
While the quality product wouldve lasted and wouldve been a nicer product in its entire life
I'd rather bite the bullet and pay a large amount once and have the tool last my lifetime
Yup
Yehs but
Same goes for work boots
lots of people don't think that way anymore
Dudes walk around in $50 boots and complain that their feet hurt all the time and are always buying new ones
the entire fucking climate people that want new electric cars basically every year
they never consider the waste they produce, only the now, never the future of the product
The amount of waste the "green people" are creating
is gigantic
yeah
better to get good ones
even if they last basically as long
get the good ones, you're walking in em every day
yup
i got the red one and the cabinet behind it last week
oh nice 200mp photo again I see
but yeah on the sign on the big cabinet you can see why they were so good
they had their own material
Vanadium-extra
Right on
my budget is $500 and im planning on getting the ryzen 7 58003XD with a x570 asus tuf motherboard I play cs2 siege and sometimes valorant i currently have a z370 asus with i7-8700 (overclocked)
you're better served getting a 7800X3D and a cheaper A620 or B650 mobo
yeah no reason for a x570
be over bgudget with ram
8700 and 5800x3d are ddr4
a b550 is more than enough for a 5800x3d
only big drop from x570 to b550 is only one 4.0 m.2
yeah...but the RAM is...tbh 32gb for a hundo is really solid
can get solid ones for less than 130 though
and...well
this person did say they could go a hundo over budget if it's that big a difference
yeah ill do it honestly cause it is a better choice overall if im already spending $500 and waiting that long i should just spend another $100 so i dont have any problems
i mean cs2 isnt really worth worring about on a modern cpu, and i think valorant is the same
Any tech black friday deals that yall have seen?
on GN 1080/low 5800x3d is only 455fps
yeah it really doesn't but I want to have a really good setup and also don't know what else to get for christmas
granted 7800x3d dose 573
not saying its a bad thing
8700 is long in the tooth
i would save for a am5
7800X3D was only 449.99 here yesterday
normally a 650 CAD part, recently been selling for 529.99, discounted to 48x.99 because it's tech deals week
snagged that guy
but i dont even average over 240 with the 8700
yoink
as amd will most likely have atleast one more generation on am5
wym 78003xd is a am5
im usd
I'm the freak who uses CAD
everyone else present is an american pig
its $359 rn
yes you orginally posted x570+5800x3d
oh yeah
but now im prob gonna get this https://pcpartpicker.com/list/gnYQ8r
Part List - AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
i would say a am5 is better as you can get upgrades
yeah
my guy literally just copy pasted my list
im planning on getting the ryzen 7 7800x3d now

π
my mom told me i should be an IT or do CS bruh thats funny u say that
get good at math and fast
what about being an IT tho
rest in pieces
yes
will it work idk what they mean by backplate
i turn 18 in 3 months
is that old enough or no
some day
you'll be able to go into a walmart and buy a gun
could u guess what state
not really
this state lets u do that
that means a lot of possible states
lmao
I would go there but I think if I told them I think NYC is the best city in the US, I'll get run out of town
yeah i would suggest not going
π
you things are a different breed anyway
"you things" bro think im in a forest
obese, stupid
and somehow haven't discovered the joy that is a perfect bagel
well u got that right
is the asrock a good motherboard the one u listed
and the ram is it good like the g trident
wait the as rock doesnt have 2 display ports?
it's got integrated graphics, do you need more than one?
yes, it is
it's made by the same brand even
well both the monitors i use are display ports but idk
oh ok cool
yeah, it's just fine
oh, and btw
you shouldn't be plugging into mobo displays if you have a dGPU
that's just dumb
yep
checks out
what is a d gpu
display?
port
alrighty
then
is there no problem overclocking the 78003XD
ohhhh
π
smart smart
WAIT
bro
78003xd base speed is 4.2??
...
holy
didnt even notice that
the 7800X3D actually has a lower clock speed than other 7000 chips
the VCache is sensitive to heat as well
so it won't do the boosting to TjMax thing
toms hardware rated the one i use for aio is number 1
W
im really not sure why the guy that built this pc just put a better cpu
everything else on it is good
not like the 8700k is bad its just idk
