#

But I still think , I will still need a camera

#

For the future content

astral haven
#

you really wont
smartphones (on the android side) have some insane options

hidden quest
#

Now I will go with phone ?

astral haven
#

my phone can record raw video for example

#

at 2000mbps

hidden quest
#

Do u think phone can make a yt videos

astral haven
#

easily

hidden quest
astral haven
#

purely shot on phones

hidden quest
#

Tru

#

Without lense huh

#

I mean expandable lense

boreal kiln
#

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

hidden quest
#

Yeah

astral haven
#

his videos are not that impressive visually
mkbhd actually spends the time

hidden quest
#

When u capture some details , it somehow feels weird to see

boreal kiln
#

and a phone is never going to match an output of an apsc or fullframe sensor anytime soon even with all the software help

hidden quest
#

?

astral haven
astral haven
#

if your camera cant record raw video, smartphones can surpass them now at least at the wide end

boreal kiln
#

im talking about photography

hidden quest
boreal kiln
#

not videography

astral haven
#

olympus does them but noone else does things that are easy pz on phone

hidden quest
astral haven
#

nah you do it yourself in post

boreal kiln
astral haven
#

record raw video, then you process it how you want

astral haven
boreal kiln
#

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

hidden quest
#

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

astral haven
boreal kiln
#

we're not talking about price tho

hidden quest
hardy idol
# hidden quest 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

astral haven
# hidden quest Smal sensor can't capture well on details ?

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

hidden quest
#

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

astral haven
#

dont get me wrong, a mirrorless can smack around phone images depending on the scenario

hidden quest
hidden quest
astral haven
#

doesnt help

#

samsung uses a ton of sharpening

hidden quest
#

Yes shet is bad

astral haven
#

gcam mods sometimes get rid of the sharpening without going too manual

hidden quest
#

This is why I dislike Samsung

#

On camera

#

Whatever how insane that was

astral haven
#

so heres how you get good images

#

for landscape

boreal kiln
#

iphone 13 pro in raw still looks like shit

astral haven
#

iphone doesnt make raws available

hidden quest
astral haven
#

they just repack heifs

hidden quest
astral haven
#

nope

#

its fake

hidden quest
#

On 13

#

Pro max

astral haven
#

just like samsung "expert raw"

#

they take a regular picture, then package it as if its a raw

hidden quest
hidden quest
astral haven
#

the sensor data has been denoised over and then sharpened, making it useless for postprocessing

hidden quest
#

Since s10e

boreal kiln
#

are you sure about that ?

raw zephyr
#

iphone proraw is raw + image processing

hidden quest
#

It alredy exist

boreal kiln
#

theres also using 3rd party apps

astral haven
hidden quest
#

But need to pay I believe

astral haven
#

yea theres a free version

hidden quest
#

Wait free version got full features

astral haven
#

free version limitation is no processing on phone, and limited clips

hidden quest
#

Somehow not convincing

astral haven
#

works great for photos tho

raw zephyr
#

image processing is the biggest factor in taking pictures with a smartphone, you don't really want to cut that out

astral haven
#

i thought so too until recently

hidden quest
#

Process photo is always a no if u want to do expert stuff

raw zephyr
#

48mp proraw is really good

hidden quest
#

I see

astral haven
hidden quest
#

Willl wait to get 13t pro

astral haven
#

and yes i have a 15 pro and a s21 ultra

hidden quest
#

I will think it can feats well

#

No way s21 ultra

#

Meme moment

clear acorn
#

is it possible to set a macro that just spams a button?

hidden quest
#

Eh wait

#

S20 ultra is eh

raw zephyr
astral haven
#

its a great phone its just samsung took the cripple hammer to the raws

clear acorn
raw zephyr
#

either take a look at wootomation or other macro softwares

hidden quest
#

Like everything is over processed

#

I mean if u just want fast pic

astral haven
#

yep

boreal kiln
#

are you spending most of your time pixel peeping images? @astral haven

astral haven
#

nah

#

differences are immediately obvious

boreal kiln
#

just coming across that way

raw zephyr
#

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

hidden quest
#

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

astral haven
#

the game has changed

raw zephyr
#

camera will beat a smartphone in every scenario, just look at the size difference

astral haven
boreal kiln
hidden quest
#

Is fun when u do something like this even though is pointless

astral haven
boreal kiln
astral haven
#

strictly with the phone!!!

boreal kiln
#

is there a behind the scene setup ?

astral haven
#

they used a pretty serious rig and they did not use the stock app, but you can see in the behind the scenes

hidden quest
astral haven
#

again tho this is a misconception

#

a smartphone is a camera

#

and many of them are extremely capable ones

hidden quest
boreal kiln
astral haven
#

that a camera will beat in every scenario

astral haven
hidden quest
astral haven
#

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

boreal kiln
#

thats one very narrow area then

#

not talking about the phone being with you at all times tho

astral haven
hidden quest
#

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

astral haven
hidden quest
#

So that I can convince myself to say no to sony phone

hidden quest
astral haven
astral haven
hidden quest
astral haven
#

you wont get as much zoom

#

if you dont care then thats great

hidden quest
boreal kiln
#

depends what you're comparing it to

astral haven
#

its very expensive in absolute terms compared to the monthly income of the median human

hidden quest
#

Tbh I somehow think those videos are telling ppl

hidden quest
#

U don't need to spend tons of money to get there

#

U can use Less to do more

#

I assume

astral haven
astral haven
hidden quest
#

I wonder does phone got pro kit ?

boreal kiln
#

currently the s23u is $500 aud cheaper compared to the 15pro max

hidden quest
#

Like holder something like that

astral haven
boreal kiln
#

and inline roughtly what a basic mirrorless camera kit would be like

hidden quest
#

15 pro max got improved quality on photos ?

#

I don't think they improve a lot

astral haven
#

compared to the base 15 its pretty major

#

the zoom is a complete night and day difference even vs the 14 pro max

hidden quest
#

I See

boreal kiln
astral haven
#

the main camera is better but still somewhat limited

boreal kiln
#

kinda silly at that point

astral haven
#

the 15 is a 14 pro

boreal kiln
#

shifting goal posts

astral haven
#

very minor changes

boreal kiln
#

14pro is still more expensive here compared to the s23u

astral haven
#

yikes

#

yea thats a regional issue

boreal kiln
#

and only $100 less to the 15pro max

hidden quest
#

Wait

#

Doesn't iPhone always expensive than Android

#

I mean strt from i15p

astral haven
#

for the same quality pictures yea

#

but they arent that much more expensive than the flagships on the android side

boreal kiln
#

all the flagships seem to hover around the same range

astral haven
#

and sony also likes to throw that out the window
charging an insane amount for their phones

hidden quest
boreal kiln
#

its just do you want android or ios

astral haven
#

android is always available for cheaper

hidden quest
#

Tru

astral haven
#

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

hidden quest
astral haven
#

at least for main camera photo and video

boreal kiln
#

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

astral haven
#

^

hidden quest
#

Maybe is for iOS enjoyer ?

#

So se still exist

#

For the ppl who want cheap

#

But still lives ios

#

Loves

astral haven
#

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

hidden quest
#

So u can buy a camera if u just like the big camera right?

#

No way I ask a weird questions

astral haven
#

big camera gives you more options

hidden quest
astral haven
#

yea

hidden quest
#

Can't be this cheap

#

I assume at least $200 to get one

astral haven
#

apple put the expensive processor in to make it not slow
everything else is competitive with $100 androids

hidden quest
#

Yeah

boreal kiln
astral haven
#

yep

hidden quest
#

Imagine SE got a big upgrade in 2025

astral haven
#

doubt it

hidden quest
#

And then ppl ditch iPhone 17 for se 2025

astral haven
#

gen 2 to gen 3 se was unnoticeable upgrade after 2 years

#

(2022 is gen 3)

hidden quest
astral haven
#

it didnt really perform better

hidden quest
astral haven
#

thats not a bad thing since the gen 2 performed excellently besides IO

hidden quest
#

I somehow wonder , does se last whole day , since the CPU change but the battery still stay the same

hidden quest
astral haven
#

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

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?

reef patrol
#

No difference whatsoever.

hidden quest
#

3 to 4 is massive improve

umbral heron
#

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

hidden quest
#

Strong enough to compete with thunderbolt 3

#

Means that for laptop users is a big upgrade

#

For desktop users is nothing

cursive summit
#

There is still functionally no reason a keyboard needs USB3 let alone 4

umbral heron
#

Who needs fast USB when SATA is hot-swappable havo

cursive summit
#

Thunderbolt might help with latency since you are wired to PCIe at that point, maybe, not too sure

#

USB2 does it job though

reef patrol

It literally couldn't care less.

U r right

#

It's funny how the best iPod is an LG V20 or whatever was that overbeefed phone with a stronk DAC

umbral heron

Basically all LGs V20+ I think, they were nice

cursive summit
#

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

umbral heron
#

Wasn't it "it's either Altman and Co. or the rest of the board" kind of situation?

cursive summit
#

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

umbral heron
cursive summit
#

I don't think anyone knows what's going on lol

umbral heron
#

Maybe it's some kind of 5D chess ending with Altman on a safe seat and with OpenAI under Microsoft?

cursive summit
#

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?

shadow minnow
# cursive summit This story is weird

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

cursive summit
#

I do think that Google has a better AI team than OpenAI currently

#

Ilya back at Google would be fun

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?

reef patrol
#

Saves you having it sit on your desk. Very niche but there's an application.

dusky herald
#

plus theres not much point in a dedicated dac imo i find the onboard audio jack works fine

old marlin
reef patrol
#

Well you just made it super clear that you're not the target audience right there πŸ˜›

dusky herald
#

a good use for one though might be for surround

old marlin
dusky herald
#

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

old marlin
#

the moon river 2 in the moondrop board btw

dusky herald
old marlin
#

consoles already have issues with peripheral support

dusky herald
#

very obscure purpose but it might make a compelling usecase

#

if it worked

raw zephyr
#

keyboard with a dac seems like a nice idea to me

old marlin
#

keyboard with a dac seems like a niche idea to me

raw zephyr
#

i'd use it

old marlin

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)

dusky herald
#

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

umbral heron
#

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

dusky herald
#

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

boreal kiln
#

gpx is a super safe shape

umbral heron
dusky herald
#

wait whats OOM

raw zephyr
#

onboard memory manager

boreal kiln
#

its goat

dusky herald
#

if its ghub without all the bloat i might switch over to it

boreal kiln
#

ghub is trash

boreal kiln
#

oom just saves the settings on the mouse and thats it

umbral heron
#

I forgot about it completely

raw zephyr
#

"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. "

dusky herald
#

welp imma have to uninstall ghub

bold iris
#

I’m currently using a glorious model d but it seems to often double click and I’m 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 can’t say anything as I have never tried any other shapes ever

dusky herald
#

get uninstalled bozo im gonna get OMM

reef patrol
#

Out of mana, clearly.

theyre very well known for doing that

old marlin
#

well, might not have known it

bold iris
boreal kiln
#

not everyone follows and keeps up with mouse related stuff

dusky herald
#

also glorious mice are pretty shit anyways

#

i used one in the past

old marlin
#

also only became popular for minecraft quite a while post release

boreal kiln
#

avg person just buys stuff and use it

old marlin
#

^

#

when will gloros have a unique shape tho

dusky herald
#

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)

umbral heron
#

G502 is great pepeyes

dusky herald
#

i think its roughly around 70-80g closer to the lower end

bold iris
boreal kiln
#

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

old marlin
#

not bad

#

imo g502 shape still sucks anyways

#

but it ain't horrible PeepoShrug

dusky herald
#

my first gaming mouse was an ergo (razer basilisk) so its not too foreign a shape to me

umbral heron
#

I love G502 shape, feels like made to my hand

boreal kiln
#

iv never tried a g502 before Sadge

#

one day i will

old marlin
#

ah

umbral heron
#

I can show you mine, you'll never want to try out G502 after that dogekek

old marlin
#

g502x wired is 89g

dusky herald
old marlin
#

so slightly below most EC1 versions

dusky herald
#

at least its not over 100g like the wireless ones

old marlin
#

ya

#

or the old one

dusky herald
#

i am going to admit the unlockable scrollwheel is really nice too for some specific things

old marlin
#

thing is

#

keychron m6? also has it

#

that thing is wireless and 78g

dusky herald
#

fair but i also wanted the extra buttons

#

(next to the left mouse button)

boreal kiln
#

i really want to try this

old marlin

lol

#

idk what I would use a second wheel for

let alone a third

triple the scrolling action

Windows scheduler being another hindrance yet again?

#

Thought they patched it scaling badly with lots of cores already

dry plaza
#

Need VRR with multi monitors

cursive summit
#

More linux nerds

#

Eh

dry plaza
#

Skill issue

#

Was probably using ancient Debian on x11 and some other weird shit

#

Maybe entirely wrong driver

#

Or very dated one

thick elk
#

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

dry plaza
#

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.

thick elk
#

Suppositly hyprland works better with nvidia according to my brother

#

Still the control panel doesn't even work under wayland or xwayland

dry plaza
#

No VRR with multi monitors = πŸ›Œ

thick elk
#

Mixed refresh rate is a worse problem to have imo

dry plaza
#

Should have xwayland explicit sync support soon tho

dry plaza
#

But yeah lol

thick elk
#

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.

dry plaza
#

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

#

πŸ™ƒ

thick elk
#

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.

smoky frigate
#

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

smoky frigate
thick elk
# smoky frigate multi monitor on X11 with nvidia is fine with some config effort. not with VRR t...

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.

smoky frigate
#

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

thick elk
#

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.

smoky frigate
#

as you pointed out, the second issue can't be blamed on either X11 or nvidia.. just the circumstance of having to disable them

thick elk
#

At no point am I blaming, I am just stating that my personal experience has been a lot smoother on AMD.

smoky frigate
thick elk
#

Something like that yea

#

moving the cursor around felt like 60

smoky frigate
#

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 πŸ˜›

rough osprey

it's fun

it has vesa 100 mounts

fair gull
#

or what is that

hardy idol
hardy idol

PSA1+

fair gull
#

close enough

cinder tinsel
fair gull
#

vesa 100 mount means theres mounting points in a 100x100mm distance on the back

#

center of the monitor

astral haven
#

vesa has 100 and 70 options for monitors

thick elk
#

In other words yes it supports desk /wall mounts

cinder tinsel

fair gull

hardy idol
thick elk
#

It litterally says Vesa 100x100mm in the description

fair gull
#

but usually TVs get the bigger ones

hardy idol
#

what is good here

cinder tinsel
fair gull
#

i wouldnt use those

thick elk
#

That would be perefectly fine in that regard yea

fair gull
#

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

cinder tinsel
hardy idol
#

oh so

#

untick everything

#

?

fair gull
#

ye

hardy idol
#

okii

fair gull
#

ideally use microsofts tool to make the win11 stick

hardy idol
#

I did

#

and it made a corrupt one

#

I couldn't install

fair gull
#

oh interesting

#

but yeah untick all

hardy idol
#

So here I am, back to rufus

fair gull
#

and then remove stuff after the install if you want bloat gone

hardy idol
#

ah ye

#

thanks toner

fair gull
#

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

hardy idol
#

Oh so no internet?

fair gull
#

i usually do no connect cause less clicks

hardy idol
#

I will do that then

fair gull
#

and then once its in windows i can connect

thick elk
#

On windows pro you can say set up for business use, join a domnain, local

hardy idol
#

i have pro

thick elk
#

something like that

fair gull
#

still a longer route imo

#

rather than not connecting and just spamming next

hardy idol
fair gull
#

yeah its a workaround

thick elk
#

The option actually doesn't join a domain

fair gull
#

windows makes a local account if you say join a domain and dont specify a domain

thick elk
#

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

fair gull
#

well it does

#

by username

#

the standard has been username@domain for years now

#

smth smth backwards compatibility and keeping old dialogues around

thick elk
#

It asks for the username, but not for the domain part, at least last I tried it

fair gull
#

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"

thick elk
#

Ah, I just write down a normal username without an @ at that point, fair enough. Functionally it does not seem to matter much.

fair gull
#

yeah if you leave out the @domain part it just makes a local user

#

cause it auto appends the PC name as the domain

almost done

God-damn AM5 motherboards are pricy.

not like lga1700 is any cheaper now

both kinda suck sadly

I don't think that'll make things cheaper. Because then I'll just want to buy 8000 series.

woven laurel

better value

(That's what I'm looking at)

ashen spindle

what prices are you seeing

crisp granite
reef patrol
#

Don't want to cheap out TOO much with a 7800X3D

crisp granite
#

A620 mobos are just fine for that

#

Most of them have solid VRMs

ashen spindle
#

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

reef patrol
#

Was looking at something in the Livemixer range (shame it isn't purple on AMD)

ashen spindle
#

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

reef patrol
#

Too used to A chipsets being utter garbage πŸ˜„

ashen spindle
#

on intel they still kind are and there you also do want better vrms for better chips lol

ashen spindle
#

but yeah if you only start looking now probably better to wait for next gen anyway

crisp granite

yeah no reason for a x570

vagrant pagoda
#

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

crisp granite

yeah...but the RAM is...tbh 32gb for a hundo is really solid

vagrant pagoda

a 7800x3d and 100 worth of ram is 470 bucks

not many good am5 boards for $30

crisp granite

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

odd sleet

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
