Lisa automatically positive to music that you're listening to while typing

Really messed up that sentence

At least it automatically passes the music you're listening to

[halcyon moss]

I never use Voice

That is missing typing.. I did say that

[fair gull]

i also dont understand how my girlfriend can to the swipe typing

where you just glide around

[halcyon moss]

Oh I love swipe typing, especially when one handed

[wheat plume]

I love swipe typing

[halcyon moss]

On the SwiftKey though

[fair gull]

i still just tap type even one handed

[wheat plume]

No swipe typing is the best

[halcyon moss]

Tap typing one handed I find to cumbersome

[fair gull]

it is but i never got to properly learn swipe

same for 10finger typing

i could never get used to it despite only using it for a few weeks

[wheat plume]

I can't do that one either

[fair gull]

i just stay with my highly modified version of whatever its called

most of it is now muscle memory anyway so typing blind is no issue even though i mainly use my left index finger, right hand index and middle finger.

[wheat plume]

One of the laptops they had on display at the store but not even open the window settings because the Nvidia drivers were not installed

So much for showing off the laptop properly

[astral haven]

Window settings?
Everything besides multimonitor and 3d pretty much works on generic drivers
And it's really hard to tell if Nvidia drivers are installed, (Nvidia) control panel and gfe aren't required

[fair gull]

yeah

[wheat plume]

I could tell that the drivers were not installed because to display resolution was really low and there was no special effects like the blur

And all of the animations were super laggy

[pale sigil]

When I didn't have drivers on my laptop it was laggy and shit res

[wheat plume]

Yeah like how this laptop was

[pale sigil]

I was backing you up Hun

[wheat plume]

I know! Lol

[shell cave]

I SPILLED A SMOOTHIE on my kb how do i disassemble my wooting 2

[rough patrol]

take off the keycaps to get at the screws

[shell cave]

7

[rough patrol]

at least thats how it works on my one and it should be basically the same

[fair gull]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mj66YesiJJk

also take out the pcb and clean it as well with IPA

[shell cave]

i cba ill just get a new keyboard

[fair gull]

uh sure why not spend like 20minutes when you can just waste money on a new keyboard

[shell cave]

`i have no idea what ipa or pcb s

is

[fair gull]

the video tells you what the PCB is

[rough patrol]

take out the thing that has all the electronic parts

[fair gull]

and IPA is rubbing alcohol

[shell cave]

this is what i have

is this ok

[fair gull]

thats IPA

(I)so(P)ropyl(A)lcohol

[frozen ingot]

if you're only using windows where's the issue

it'll work

[ashen spindle]

I think he's just completely delusional at this point @astral haven

[fair gull]

the frig is going on with geohot

lol

[ashen spindle]

idk money drying up so the next grift is coming I gess idfk ay this point

[marsh pewter]

you're probably going to want 90% or higher

[astral haven]

Nah you'd be surprised, he is gonna try stuff until it works

[ashen spindle]

ehhhh

if we change the definition of it works perhaps

[shell cave]

yuh but is 70 ok

[fair gull]

yes

just takes longer to evaporate

[shell cave]

kk

tysm

the screws are so fucling tight \omg

[wheat plume]

How long does a MacBook laptop battery typically remain usable without bringing a charger everywhere for?

3-4 years?

[atomic hornet]

Depends on how often you use / charge / how you charge

[wheat plume]

Charge when it's low
But likely using it while charging

I try to only charge when not using the laptop but that's impossible now :/

How much system resources do you need to use for the fans to spin up on MacBook pro?
Like is using an ide for a code project and running a database in browser and chrome and YouTube Music gonna ramp the fans?

[shell cave]

can u call at all?

im in gen vc

[fair gull]

the only time my MBP fans ramp up is when i run the code projects (so a rest api server, and some frontends) or i run tests

or i watch high res videos above 1080p

[wheat plume]

O...
Interesting

[fair gull]

might be just having the smallest M1 though

[shell cave]

@fair gull do i use it on this?

[fair gull]

you take that black thing (the pcb) out as well as the video shows

thats the actual part that can break from the smoothie

thats also what you clean with a tissues that you put some IPA on

and then carefully wipe the affected areas

(of course you take it out to see if either side is affected)

[shell cave]

join vc im struggling

[fair gull]

i cant

[shell cave]

ok

[cursive summit]

That was awfully imperative

[wheat plume]

I'm tempted to be like "Fuck it. Imma get a MacBook and use MacOS" for my next laptop
But then I see how much they cost once you get 16gb ram and 512gb storage and I change my mind quickly ;_;

Cause I also don't wanna buy a windows laptop despite immediately installing Linux on it because then I'm paying 100 Euro of so for a Windows licence I won't use

[cursive summit]

Translation: "Fuck it, imma become skill issue"

Why tf are you even considering of buying a laptop

[steep creek]

How about framework then? Can order one with no os

[cursive summit]

You have a Deck, use that as a portable workstation

[wheat plume]

If the framework laptop didn't have a garbage really dark screen I'd definitely get it
But it can barely get bright enough in a sunny room

[steep creek]

Fair

[wheat plume]

It's only like 400 nit

[steep creek]

Yea I know the horrors of a dim laptop display, mine is basically useless without some cover in sunlight

[wheat plume]

Yeah....

[frozen ingot]

other people tend to go outside occasionally

maybe even travel

[ashen spindle]

you can also just get one of the laptops that are sold without a windows license

[cursive summit]

350 nits is considered pretty damn good

500 is pretty damn bright

I can use 250 no problem in daylight conditions

[pale sigil]

Are you sure lol

[cursive summit]

Hence, use the steam deck

Get a portable 13" display, connect it as an external monitor

Portable workstation that fits in any backpack

[pale sigil]

Although TBF

[wheat plume]

JSAUX flip go

[steep creek]

That’s a lot to carry around tho, laptop is just thinner and lighter typically

[wheat plume]

That shit is awesome looking

[pale sigil]

Eh

Kinda

For me using the desktop has always been shite

But apparently others it's great

[cursive summit]

You are underestimating how much laptops weigh a bit I think lel

[pale sigil]

Depends on the laptop

[steep creek]

I mean those thin laptops

[pale sigil]

But yes I do feel like people underestimate even small ones.

[wheat plume]

I can barely tell my laptop is in my backpack most of the time

[pale sigil]

MacBook pro is 1.6kg for example

[steep creek]

The 14” thin ones I barely notice in my backpack

[wheat plume]

Yeh xd

[steep creek]

lol oh

[pale sigil]

Isn't yours a chonk

[wheat plume]

No xd

[pale sigil]

I hated having my laptop in my bag that was 2kg

I swapped it out for an iPad very quickly and just used that for my 3 years in uni

[pale sigil]

That's a chonker

[wheat plume]

?

[pale sigil]

Heavy boi

[wheat plume]

Bish you drunk?

[frozen ingot]

maybe for a soyboi

[pale sigil]

Oh apparently my laptop was 1.6kg

Wait no 1.95 so basically 2

[pale sigil]

It looks heavy

[wheat plume]

It's just the lid's thickness thicker than the tablet

[pale sigil]

Take the tablet case off

XD

Can you share the model

I know it's a custom build

[wheat plume]

Ok xd this makes a difference

Xf

[pale sigil]

There ya go

[wheat plume]

Nope....
They don't sell this one anymore on the site ;_;

[pale sigil]

We are totally ignoring the sides means shit since it curves too

But anyway, too big and heavy for my liking.

[wheat plume]

It's a 14 inch laptop in the body size of a 13 inch laptop

[cursive summit]

This appears to be 2.2kg apparently?

[pale sigil]

Tbh though

Oh hmm

Looks bigger in the pic TBF Lana

[wheat plume]

Yeh

[pale sigil]

Can you take a pic from above with the tablet

[wheat plume]

Want to compare to steam deck? Xd

Oh ok

[pale sigil]

No

Tablet

[cursive summit]

I'm just saying, getting an external display and pairing that to a Deck circumvents the biggest problem of laptops which is usually the shite keyboard and terrible ergonomics

Plus you end up paying like 5x less cause a decent portable display is like 300 at max lol

[pale sigil]

I like the laptops with removable keyboards

[steep creek]

Don’t you need a separate mouse and keyboard for this tho, doesn’t seem all that portable lol

[cursive summit]

You can use Deck's built in controls for that

[pale sigil]

The surfac is nice but overpriced

[pale sigil]

Ah ye

That's fair

But ffs

My anxiety

The screen on metal

[cursive summit]

Or you can carry around a 60HE, or a G915TKL or something, something small

[steep creek]

I guess you can but I am not programming on a touch screen

[cursive summit]

Lana isn't programming in general

[pale sigil]

She is

[wheat plume]

https://jsaux.com/pages/flipgo2

[pale sigil]

That's literally her job

[steep creek]

lol

[cursive summit]

T'was a joke about how Lana can't program

[pale sigil]

Clearly she can

[cursive summit]

Not very well

[wheat plume]

Xd

[steep creek]

Looks ok but think if you’re outside it can get a little overwhelming, in the office you’d have monitors anyways

[wheat plume]

Not well in Python

[pale sigil]

God forbid people learn

On a specific language

[cursive summit]

2

[pale sigil]

It's like judging someone who focuses on C for struggling with python right away.

[wheat plume]

I learned Java and c# in college
And the rest is on my own ..... Even though they were also subjects in college

We just got dropped into the deep end with immediately starting data science in Python without an introduction module :/

Going from Java and c# to using pandas library in Python is a big contrast

[steep creek]

I know how it is, prof gave us an assignment in C knowing we’ve never done any C before

[wheat plume]

Right???

"it's similar to JavaScript. You'll figure it out" or some shit they'd say

[pale sigil]

Same here

But it was java

[steep creek]

dude just went “it’s self study and this is easy”

It was not easy

[pale sigil]

Assembly was worse because I redid my year due to health and it had been 2 years since I touched assembly and my professor was like you did it in the first year.

Bitch my first year was 2 years ago now

[wheat plume]

Yup

Xd

[pale sigil]

I barely remember what I ate for dinner the night before.

[steep creek]

Of course prof says it’s easy he has a phd and years of work experience lol

[pale sigil]

It gets worse

He designed a tool that a lot of unis use to do CPU language etc

Says it's easy to use

Bitch you made it

[wheat plume]

Idk why that reminds me of the job interview a guy lost despite him being the creator of the library they use

He didn't have 5 years of experience in it despite it being only 3 years old

And he was the one who made it

[steep creek]

loll

[pale sigil]

https://teach-sim.com/

It was funny though, the work we did he provides on the website and you could Google the answers.

https://teach-sim.com/tutorials/#ComputerArchitecture

Since other unis used them and people uploaded them.

[steep creek]

Oh this stuff is quite similar to what we were doing

Nice stuff but can get a little overwhelming in the start yeah

[pale sigil]

"little"

I know how it works and I can explain it

But make me do it? Pfffftttt

[steep creek]

I think it’s ok it’s just the C coding I loathe

[wheat plume]

What type of screw is this?
I need to get a screwdriver if I wanna replace this battery

[cursive summit]

That.. is a philips screw

[cursive summit]

C# my beloved

Such a powerful language

[wheat plume]

But what size
The 2 screwdrivers I have are slightly too big

;_;

[balmy vector]

Tell them to shrink

[cursive summit]

How tf are we supposed to know from a picture with no scale to it

[wheat plume]

Fair xd

[steep creek]

yea friend of mine loves it too, im sure its great just havent tried it myself yet

[cursive summit]

Try doing some Unity game coding

[reef patrol]

That looks like a 00 or smaller. Like borderline jewelry lit screwdriver need.

[cursive summit]

It's easy to get into and pretty fun

[reef patrol]

Here's a better question, Lana. What kind of device is it? Usually easier to Google DEVICE X screws

[steep creek]

thats nice ill try to remember to try c#

[wheat plume]

Laptop I sent photos of just earlier

[cursive summit]

That's not what Anders asked

[wheat plume]

I don't think I'll find it on Google search since it's an OEM custom

[cursive summit]

You don't even know what device you have?

[wheat plume]

I do

But that don't sell it anymore

So finding info will be hard

[cursive summit]

... well what device is it?

[umbral heron]

Gibe model

[fair gull]

inb4 its irish crap oem

or irish crap si

[wheat plume]

PC specialist M141517

[fair gull]

i knew it

[wheat plume]

They aren't Irish xd

[cursive summit]

PCSpecialist is.. British I think

[fair gull]

well the idea is the same

[cursive summit]

Didn't take long

Whatever PZ0 is

[slate holly]

for some reason my wooting wont stay on rapid trigger profile

[umbral heron]

Found the same thread

[fair gull]

its not pz thats for sure

[reef patrol]

Stay? In what sense?

[slate holly]

it keeps turning off and once i open the wooting program it switches back on

[reef patrol]

Also not the most appropriate channel.

[umbral heron]

It's not Pozidriv though, pretty sure it's PH0

[fair gull]

PZ is typically what furtniture screws use

[cursive summit]

You sound sure, it fits the image

[fair gull]

id have said 00

[fair gull]

PZ has diagonals as well

[umbral heron]

Oh, it may be 00, true

[fair gull]

PH left and PZ right

the screw might actually be a JIS screw due to the sharp 90degree internal angles of the head

but without any sort of measurement units on lanas image its hard to say which size

[fair gull]

heres a better image than before PZ0 bit and you can clearly see the added diagonal angles for extra grip with a proper screw use. this would damage a non PZ0 head

or the bit depending on whats softer

[cursive summit]

I did some digging, cause it's fun

Seems the laptop is PCSpecialist Lafite V 14

Chassis isn't Clevo but some chinese manufacturer

[fair gull]

sounds like a name lana posted in the past ye

[cursive summit]

The screw might be M2

Or M2.5

[fair gull]

thats a thread

[cursive summit]

Looks the part in images

[fair gull]

m2 doesnt specify the head

[umbral heron]

That's M2.5 too

[fair gull]

yeah M# refers to the thread (or threat idk) part of the screw not the head or length of it

usually its M#x## where # is thread related and ## is the screw length

and then you still dont know if its hex, slit, ph, jis, pz, torx or whatever

not to mention head geometry

[cursive summit]

Pardon, in the industry of Home Depot I have absolutely no clue whatsoever

[fair gull]

lol

[cursive summit]

No clue what this type of head is called

X is Philips, that's about as much as I know

[fair gull]

slotted head

[cursive summit]

Hm, would have just called it an I-head

[cursive summit]

Heard of torx before

Good knowledge for the next 5 minutes before my ADHD forgets anything I just read

[fair gull]

the most interesting one is JIS screwdrivers having moved from their official version to be more like frearsons

basically the cross head but with closed ends

[wheat plume]

Interesting
Every 50KM
That's really cool!

GG Norway

https://youtube.com/shorts/rZCMnva65fs

[cursive summit]

I highly doubt it

[frozen ingot]

"in europe"

[cursive summit]

Norway's north is rather narrow, but sparsely populated

[frozen ingot]

which norway makes up like 5% of

fucking americans man

norway is an anomaly when it comes to EVs

[reef patrol]

Ah yes - Norway being EUROPE all of a sudden 😄

He makes some good points though - It should 100% be like that.

[wheat plume]

What I got from this video is that you don't get a charger cable if you buy an EV in the US

Seems a bit odd ....

They aren't exactly a common cable

[frozen ingot]

the cables are fitted to the charging stations

[wheat plume]

Oh ...

[frozen ingot]

imo I find it kinda weird that you have to supply your own cable but oh well

[wheat plume]

It makes sense
Imo

Cause the cable could be a hazard to have permanently attached

If the previous person charging didn't roll it back into the charging bay properly

Could get damaged or make people trip over it or drive over it in the car

[reef patrol]

Considering how people drive around with gas pumps on their cars in the US, it makes sense

[frozen ingot]

I mean unplugging it, rolling it up and taking in and out of your trunk everytime will cause wear on your cable too

[reef patrol]

BYOC as an option makes a lot of sense.

Murrca

[frozen ingot]

shit happens when you don't force the customers to pump their own gas

[wheat plume]

LOL

[reef patrol]

...wha

[halcyon moss]

Heh. Every street charger definitely does not have a cable over hete

[wheat plume]

Sounds about right for America

[frozen ingot]

a lot of US gas stations still have someone pumping the gas for them

[halcyon moss]

Only fast chargers have cables

[wheat plume]

Most do yeah

[reef patrol]

No they don't? Only in one state - by law.

[wheat plume]

No
Most places

Yes
By law is different xd
They don't have to but they do

[frozen ingot]

yeah a lot still do whether mandatory or not

[reef patrol]

Everyone pumps their own gas in the vast majority of the US.
And even if they didn't, that would have the OPPOSITE effect of what I showed.

[frozen ingot]

or they'd drive away before its done because they saw a mcdonalds sign on the opposite side of the road and completely forgot they were gassing up

[reef patrol]

In fact the US are so backwards that you in most cases have to go inside and ask for "ten bucks on pump one", instead of just charging afterwards via card or in store.

[languid goblet]

i honestly do nt think ive ever seena gas station where someone pumps gas for you

ive lived in the us my whole life

[reef patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-slam-michael-scott-shout-thank-you-gif-5042457

[crisp granite]

Some states require it still

[reef patrol]

One. One state.

[crisp granite]

Which one?

[reef patrol]

New Jersey to be specific - And everyone mocks them for it.

[crisp granite]

…NJ moment

[steep creek]

uh most places pay at the pump now dont they?

[languid goblet]

yeah, justu use your card to pay at pump. pump your gas and go

[crystal halo]

Literally never have done this. True this is necessary for cash transactions, but card is done at pump:
Swipe card (or NFC payment like Apple Pay etc), select fuel grade, and off ya go refueling.

….we aren’t cave men.

[steep creek]

yea i thought so, the US isnt that backwards lol

[crystal halo]

Granted my main set of wheels is an EV so in-garage charging

[fair gull]

the fact you pay before pumping is the true crime

[crystal halo]

…it’s a $1 temp charge, then when you’re done the actual charge goes through.

The $1 goes away regardless. It’s just to verify it’s a valid payment

[steep creek]

lots of stations do that here too

[glacial meteor]

HeyGuys best mouse to match a 80HE?

[fair gull]

so would you guys also go into a walmart swipe first and then shop

(i know thats not how it works rn)

[wheat plume]

America is still backwards for paying by NFC in shops though .....

Most shops only have a card swiper and no contactless scanner ;_;

[crystal halo]

It’s to help prevent Mr. Florida trucker man from filling up his 70 gal truck and then driving away

[languid goblet]

you can put stuff back at walmart. you cant put gas back in the pump

[fair gull]

well yes but i also dont go to a walmart or gasstation if i dont have money

[crystal halo]

Around me, NFC is very much catching on, even in restaurants

[fair gull]

its the same off ass backwards thing as american tipping culture

[crystal halo]

Bro tipping culture is the worst.

I friggen hate it

[steep creek]

ok yea hating tipping culture i agree on

[lyric hatch]

Wish samsung pay took off, allowed contact less payments at any eftpos terminal

[fair gull]

not to mention that apparently speaking my mind on the food inside the restaurant is a taboo in texas

cause i could hurt someones feelings or smth

[languid goblet]

got me there. tipping as a mandatory way for servers to survive is absolutely ridiculous

[wheat plume]

That's the same here too :/

[crystal halo]

I will go into a sub shop, and pick up a sandwich. Nobody did anything to serve me, the workers are paid minimum wage, and bam tip window pops up on the terminal

[lyric hatch]

We have nfc payments at 95% of places here in NZ but a lot places have a surcharge for using it now which sucks

[wheat plume]

....ew sub charge

[crystal halo]

3.5%~ credit card fee is popping up here and there around me

[reef patrol]

Every tiktok comparison between US and EU from expats say otherwise. So clearly it's happening somewhere 😄

[wheat plume]

....oh ffs

Are they trying to force people back to physical cash?

[crystal halo]

Maybe out west where they’re real wacko, but I’m on the eastern coast and never had that problem.

[reef patrol]

The business pays fees on having the card readers and services. And they would prefer to pass that onto customers. That's just business in general.

[crystal halo]

Well, the credit card companies are increasing their platform fees

[frozen ingot]

tipping culture has its roots in slavery just for adding another level of godawfulness to it

[reef patrol]

Slavery? Mafia.

[lyric hatch]

I blame visa here they charge extra per every wireless transaction so some places take the charge for the customer and other charge it to the customer

[crystal halo]

I will gladly tip on a sit down restaurant where I’m served promptly and efficiently, and I’m not rushed to leave, but where I go to pick up the food myself, no tip.

[frozen ingot]

it was common for people to tip slave waiters back in those days because they didn't make any wage otherwise

[crystal halo]

Servers base wage is like $2-3 an hour

[lyric hatch]

Kinda defeats the purpose of being wireless when you have to press to accept the surcharge anyway

[steep creek]

i rarely eat in resturants but besides that i refuse to tip. not my responsibility to ensure that waiters are properly paid

[frozen ingot]

I only tip a bit in restaurants if the service is above average

[crystal halo]

Unfortunately that can have the adverse effect of giving you lousy service if you go back and are remembered…

[wheat plume]

....you have to tip on collection too??????

[crystal halo]

“Yo this guy didn’t tip, get him”

[frozen ingot]

well if they don't pay their staff properly I'd rather not go back period

[steep creek]

ah how bizzare

[crystal halo]

Well. You can

I don’t heck no

[frozen ingot]

its not my fucking problem to pay your staff

[reef patrol]

In the US you're expected to - cause it's part of their wages. Yes the US needs a proper fair wage revolution and removal of tips as wages 😛

[cursive summit]

Some general channel topics today

[wheat plume]

it really does .-.

[crystal halo]

If I’m doing the waiters job of bringing food from the kitchen to my table I’m not tipping.

[cursive summit]

Slow sunday eh?

[frozen ingot]

if you can't afford to hire waiters then you shouldn't have a restaurant, stop relying on the kindness of strangers you greedy manupulative cunt

[lyric hatch]

Yeah tipping is wild to me, fair wages is a much better solution 😉

[reef patrol]

Tesla chargers, gas pumps and tips!
Get your americana right here, folks!

[wheat plume]

"buT ThAtS SociAlisM, we AinT COmmUNisT" - a lot of americans

[cursive summit]

I dunno, is it "outrageous", "unfair" to not tip?

[crystal halo]

At this point yep

[lyric hatch]

Service in America just comes across as fake because of it just being nice so you leave a big tip

[cursive summit]

A waiter, delivery driver, room service person they all get salaries

Why would anyone expect to tip a person that has a salary?

[wheat plume]

I saw so many posts online from insane door dashers who put spit and other chemicals into customers orders because they didnt tip

[crystal halo]

Because your American server only makes like $2 from serving your table.

[wheat plume]

.-.

[crystal halo]

They’re exempt from federal minimum wage

[cursive summit]

Well, America is just stupid in general so, bleh

[wheat plume]

Why tf is that a thing? -.-

[frozen ingot]

thank god for living in a country where people actually get paid wages for this stuff and you don't have to play into some psychological social game where you have to rate someone how much they deserve to get paid for the job

[cursive summit]

Europe is so much better

[wheat plume]

Minimum wage exceptions

like wtf

[crystal halo]

Because they get tips as tippable workers.

[wheat plume]

tips were always designed to be OPTIONAL

but in the US they are not .-.

[frozen ingot]

because the US is fucked

[reef patrol]

Meanwhile in Denmark - Technically no minimal wage, but unions are basically mandatory 😄

[wheat plume]

hmm

[crystal halo]

And the thing is, successful waiters don’t want it to change because the real good ones rake in hundreds of dollars a night.

[wheat plume]

o.o

[cursive summit]

I was thinking of relocating there, would you recommend?

[crystal halo]

I’m not joking.

[cursive summit]

I heard good things about DK

[wheat plume]

I thought the restaurant took most of their tips also?

The tips dont go to the waiters

[crystal halo]

Nope that’s illegal

[crystal halo]

It’s split between the chefs and wait staff

[frozen ingot]

wait til they open their mouths

[cursive summit]

Huh

[wheat plume]

ooohhhh ok, thats not bad then

[crystal halo]

Yeah restaurants get in very hot water if they skim tips

[wheat plume]

good

as they should

[crystal halo]

IRS comes a knockin’

[wheat plume]

they should be paying a liveable wage though and tips being optional as designed though

[reef patrol]

Denmark is great - If you happen to be white, have a college education and are willing to learn the language - or work in a vocation where everyone speaks english anyway.

If you're middle eastern or one of those "other problematic people", expect to get targeted both socially and legally.

[wheat plume]

Ah.....sounds about white

[crystal halo]

I have danish friends they’re great

[frozen ingot]

looks at how things are going in sweden

[cursive summit]

Sounds good

[frozen ingot]

gee wonder why

[wheat plume]

👀 do tell

[frozen ingot]

explosions, shootings, killings, rapes

on a daily basis

[wheat plume]

😅 oh.....

[cursive summit]

Explosions, shootings?

Wtf is happening in Swe

[crystal halo]

Sounds like the good ole USA too lmao

[frozen ingot]

um yeah what kinda rock have you been living under

[wheat plume]

is it targetting specific group of people??

[cursive summit]

I heard nothing about anything happening in Sweden?

[frozen ingot]

its been worldwide news for some time

[wheat plume]

dont watch the news..too depressing

[cursive summit]

I don't watch the news either

[frozen ingot]

we've had more bombings than any other country in peacetime for the past few years, except for mexico

[wheat plume]

yikes

wtf

[cursive summit]

If nobody talked about it on some subreddits or discord, I am virtually unaware of it

[frozen ingot]

my guess is denmark doesn't want a piece of that action

[wheat plume]

yeah... same

which isnt the best way to get news xd

[crystal halo]

Totally unbiased

[wheat plume]

LOL

truly

the most unbiased news source is Reddit /S

[cursive summit]

Seems Sweden has issues with ISIS rn?

[frozen ingot]

islamic extremism in general

[crystal halo]

I love when people claim they report unbiased news and that’s a flat out lie everyone has biases

[wheat plume]

ikr

[cursive summit]

I always knew Europe will pay for allowing refugees, good to know it's happening more and more

[steep creek]

the parts of sweden i visit are peaceful enough, but thats right by the border

[umbral heron]

Calling Reddit a news source even is a stretch

[wheat plume]

I was also in Stockholm and it seemed chill

[frozen ingot]

we allowed some individuals the right to burn the quoran here and as you could probably figure out that turned the entire muslim world against us

those people don't really grasp freedom of expression

[wheat plume]

isnt burning the proper way to dispose of that book?

[crystal halo]

I mean doesn’t r/news exist

[wheat plume]

or is that a different one im thinking of?

[crystal halo]

Probably a different one.

[frozen ingot]

yeah burning quorans will put a price on your head for the rest of your life

[wheat plume]

I know that some religious book, burning it is the proper way to dispose of it

forgot what one though

[cursive summit]

Well I only follow realistically.. one "news" source, r/lithuania for local stuff

Everything else is gaming or science

[crystal halo]

They will want to burn… uh… you

[cursive summit]

I don't like news in general, makes the world seem depressing

[cursive summit]

What fuckin gangs

[frozen ingot]

it sure does feel like it for most of us living here

[reef patrol]

How many this year?

[frozen ingot]

you open the news see there's been yet another bombing and be like "oh well"

I dunno, but there's been well over 650 since 2018

[umbral heron]

[reef patrol]

Couldn't be biker gangs, oh no.

[frozen ingot]

that's more than enough to feel like this shit just keeps happening and happening and happening

[cursive summit]

Is it biker gangs or mafia?

[frozen ingot]

its not

[reef patrol]

It is though.

[frozen ingot]

you barely hear about the biker gangs anymore

its gangster clans

[steep creek]

yikes

[cursive summit]

Nor mafia nor bikers are a problem here

[cursive summit]

Drug dealers?

[reef patrol]

Those are typically the biker gangs.

[cursive summit]

Huh, we are that tapped now in Europe eh?

[frozen ingot]

drug wars mostly yep, and human traffickers

[steep creek]

hope the police and whatever else gets this under control, not good at all

[frozen ingot]

except these new gangs have no connection with biker culture at all

[astral haven]

Nah I mean talk to different companies, he's tried Nvidia, amd, intel, Qualcomm, now he is trying tsmc, maybe Intel foundry?

[cursive summit]

I will look into accelerating my permanent residence permit in New Zealand

[cursive summit]

You lot destroy yourselves, I want to live in an island in the middle of nowhere

[frozen ingot]

not here

[reef patrol]

LTF and all the other ones.

[frozen ingot]

maybe in denmark

[steep creek]

nz is niice, either that or hawaii, maybe even mauritius for retirement

[frozen ingot]

the most prominent gangs that's been in the news for the past few years has been the foxtrot network and the dalen one

[cursive summit]

Mauritius is culturally weird, I heard

NZ is as close as it comes to utopia on earth

[steep creek]

aha? i just thought the place looked beautiful, havent looked much into culture and all that

give me some place by the beach so i can surf daily

[umbral heron]

I'd love to move to the south of Chile, cold, mountainy climate

[lyric hatch]

You here already?

[steep creek]

i love south america, have met lot of great people from there

[cursive summit]

I am never setting my foot anywhere in both Americas or Africa lol

Way too unsafe

[cursive summit]

Nyo, I wish

[umbral heron]

Eh, it's as remote as it goes, NZ sounds nice, but Australasian climate is not for me I think

[steep creek]

going from norway to a place like hawaii would be like moving to a different planet lol, maybe sometime when i get older

maybe when our oil runs out

[cursive summit]

Fair enough famalam, I wish you find your inner peace

[ashen spindle]

and do what with them? get his software people to magically make an asic that outperforms h100?

[lyric hatch]

NZ ain't as bad as Australia, where I live it gets to about 28°C in summer max and -3°C at its very lowest

[cursive summit]

NZ seems to hover around 20 most of the time

Which is perfect

[lyric hatch]

The sun here hits different though

[cursive summit]

Huh, what's up with it?

NZ just incredibly surprises me in ecodiversity

It has everything, apart from deserts I guess

Jungles, mountains, valleys, just the perfect place

[lyric hatch]

We have a weak ozone layer which means the suns rays get less filtering

Nz/aus have the highest rates of skin cancer in the world

[cursive summit]

Oh shit, I guess body creams are mandatory

[astral haven]

Probably find a company who builds ip blocks and I would guess make a chip that boots Linux probably arm or riscv and has a modo Ai accelerator on it of the order of mtl or s8g3 but at 1/5th the area
Or 5x the perf of those in around the same die size

[cursive summit]

I'm basically half bald in my early 20s so I feel fooked

[lyric hatch]

Yeah a good sunblock is mandatory here in summer

Especially if you're fairer skinned

[cursive summit]

It doesn't get much higher than 25 in "summer" right?

I think our summer is your winter lol cause of how the hemispheres work or something

[lyric hatch]

Depends where you live further North it's common to hit 30°C+ in summer

[cursive summit]

Oh I was thinking Christchurch thereabouts

More south towards mountains

Auckland is.. eh?

[lyric hatch]

Christchurch is actually an exception gets pretty hot down there for some reason

https://www.rnz.co.nz/national/programmes/first-up/audio/2018781111/christchurch-breaks-records-with-high-of-36-point-7-degrees

[cursive summit]

Wait, only 36.7?

It gets up to 40 here in the north sometimes

[lyric hatch]

As I said though the sun hit different here

[cursive summit]

Fair enough

Still seems like the perfect country

As long as work is available I guess

[lyric hatch]

I don't think any country is perfect but I'm happy with the balance here

[ashen spindle]

[cursive summit]

Ah right what's with the gun laws now?

[astral haven]

Perhaps, but he's willing to publicly try everything

[pale sigil]

This has become the norm for UK

[cursive summit]

Last I read it's american-ish but after.. certain events, guns are a bit more prohibited

[pale sigil]

And that's saying something

Since 30 used to be seen as high

[ashen spindle]

idk I just dont read it as him trying and failing but closer to grifting and not having serious intentions, also his PR sucks with how he does things that you dont do publicly like that

[astral haven]

He streams alot of it

And again he is trying to finance a company internal project and thought that he would be able to build a full on low density server for less than the price of a single a100 with the performance of more than 2

[young spindle]

hello my friend bought a wooting 60HE , the keyboard works fine for some time (varying from 1h to 4h) but it suddenly stop functionning all together, the only way to make it works again is to restart computer
: i have tried to update all drivers and use wooting software, its all up to date, keyvboard is detected but nothing works when we open notepad for example
any idea what would be the issue? is this related to PSU due to too much psu usage?

[cursive summit]

Sorry?

https://videocardz.com/newz/microsoft-directsr-revealed-making-resolution-upscalers-easier-to-implement

Oh I guess I forgot context

[ashen spindle]

what part about it is outdated

[cursive summit]

FSR2 instead of FSR3 Upscaling

[ashen spindle]

those are the same thing

[cursive summit]

They are not?

[pale sigil]

@fair gull any idea why i always struggle to install libjasper1 libjasper-dev?

[cursive summit]

FSR3 upscaler is completely different from FSR2

You literally said so

[fair gull]

idk what libjasper is

[ashen spindle]

it's the same thing just different marketing name because until fsr 3.1 the upscaler and frame generation are not seperated in fsr 3.0

afterwards its just the name for amds upscaler

also this could show fsr1 and it wouldnt matter because those are just whats using the api its not like microsoft is adding these 3 things and then nothing can be changed

i just wanna acess my pi cam

[pale sigil]

inb4 needs a specific version of raspbian

[pale sigil]

i think it does not support over 18

which is bullshit

[fair gull]

over 18 what

[pale sigil]

ubuntu version

the dependency

[fair gull]

why would u use ubuntu

[pale sigil]

https://github.com/EbenKouao/pi-camera-stream-flask/issues/32

eh i think im using debian

regardless

im using server not gui

[fair gull]

sudo apt update
sudo apt install libjasper1 libjasper-dev```

apparently that does the trick

[pale sigil]

i tried

no luck

dead repo or something

[fair gull]

why

what error do you get

[pale sigil]

404

[fair gull]

copy of the log output

[fair gull]

arm64

hahaha

inb4 arm32 only

i have run into that wall on my pi too many times

[umbral heron]

There are older packages for libjasper in arm64

[fair gull]

well callum hasnt read the error correctly

thats why

i also didnt

just needs a keyring update i believe to put the keys for that repo in

This is pretty to look at

The GDDR6 memory chips are made by Samsung and carry the model number K4ZAF325BC-SC20. They are specified to run at 2500 MHz (20 Gbps effective)

Well yes they fucking are, WHY AREN'T THEY THEN

Read that even with the GRE OC fixes, the thing doesn't reliably OC to 2500MHz

Must have fucked with power management or something

Still a far better card than 7800XT, with an OC it shouldn't be far off XT

jfc Chrome.

To disable media keys you now have to add a launch argument.

Mnope. Suddenly wiped from there.

And no actual option in the UI

yeah still works for me

[crimson wigeon]

Oh well I use Firefox so HA HA

[reef patrol]

[raw zephyr]

yeah that would be nice.. i just use wootility desktop

[crimson wigeon]

Literally just fire up chromium for shit like that that only works in it

All it's good for

A Side browser tab, for my wootility :)

Guys what mices could you recommend for FPS/MOBA players? Without bloatware.. lightweight if possible and maybe ghostshell with nice light (polling 2-8k)

[smoky fractal]

price range?

wired/wireless?

[glacial meteor]

hmm.. wired is good.. not a super fan of wireless.. but if it's impossible to get 4/8k poll.. wifi.. price 0-200€

[glacial meteor]

Ohh.. and good quality scrollwheel with maybe endless scroll switch would be nice.. couldn't find any that have this except for Logitech/Razer..

🤔 it doesnt fetch anything, ever

restarted everything I can think of

I dont get Neo4J

[chrome spruce]

Is this normal?

[ashen spindle]

yes

[chrome spruce]

[ashen spindle]

those sites dont measure the actual values

it can only estimate them by checking when you release it

[chrome spruce]

Ah

[ashen spindle]

so you can get <1ms with wootings on them but if you just cant release them fast enough you might never get lower than 100ms

[chrome spruce]

Okay, seems fine

Can't release it faster, i'm 28 years old

Wish i was 16 in 2024

[old marlin]

Considering the shortest possible time would be 2 that seems fine

[fair gull]

well even young people get high values with normal presses. the usual way people estimate it is by flicking keys just at the edge while having 0.1mm actuation set

that way you barely actuate and due to it being a flick it immediately releases

[old marlin]

Yea basically

Still a very roundabout way to get polling rate

[fair gull]

its to estimate scanrate not polling

[old marlin]

Well, both kinda

[cursive summit]

https://youtu.be/q5tbCbm1IYM

[old marlin]

Lower of the two

[cursive summit]

Hm, I was wanting more FPS boosts

But it seems GRE can do 21.5gbps in HU's case

Sadly, no power testing

TPU says 340 W is max power limit which I doubt just a VRAM OC can max out on

[misty ibex]

Are AM5 asus (ROG) motherboards reliable? I had a friend who told me to go with ASRock instead because Asus had a weird warranty policy where if you updated bios your warranty would be voided

I’m doing a $2000~ build

[ashen spindle]

every vendor has their ticks and will always try to dodge warranty or repairs

which means they are all mostly equal

the update thing was when one issue came up and pr messed up their statement but that got retracted same day

[gusty kiln]

B650E taichi lite is basically top of the line for a mid range price

[cursive summit]

EVGA didn't

[hot basin]

If you live in the EU they can't bs their way out of warranty

[ashen spindle]

since the price was posted in $ I would assume its not paid in euro

[cursive summit]

Funny thing about that, I prolly already saved like at least 700 or so euros on warranty

Got a gaming laptop few months back cause waifu doesn't really have a PC that's powerful enough for anything more than vanilla minecraft, and even then, barely that

In a few months time, the speakers literally fried lol

I suspect there was a voltage spike of sorts cause of a system crash and speakers somehow got impacted cause the speakers completely disappeared off BIOS

Bring it to warranty, wait a few weeks, verdict: mainboard failure, replaced the whole mainboard

Can't imagine that's a cheap thing

Last time I'm buying HP products though, ridiculously unreliable

[reef patrol]

I'd you're willing to take legal action via small claims court? No.

Otherwise they can do what they feel like, unless you get media involved

[hot basin]

usually threating to stomp on their toes is enough for companies to reconsider

[zenith silo]

depends on the company, and their wealth 🤣

[cursive summit]

I hate laws on headphones

If you ever opened the product up, it's not returnable, sometimes you can, but if you ever wore it, it's definitely not returnable

How are you supposed to know if you like the product without ever listening to it

you gotta feel its aura man

dont you dare open the product to try it

[modern belfry]

yo if anyone from the wooting team sees it, why is my warranty request sent to wooting gmail not getting answered? i sent it like 4-5 days ago and it says that wooting answers within 3 days...

not to be annoying or anything, i just need my keyboard working before i need to play in the tournament...

[zenith silo]

80he founders campaign going on, customer support is swamped and we also just got off the weekend

[modern belfry]

i sent it before the weekend tho

but yeah i get it...

[cursive summit]

Currently the team has a lot of queries, it'll take a bit

[modern belfry]

so i guess i wont have my keyboard working before my tournament

[zenith silo]

what exactly is the issue going on

[cursive summit]

RGB stopped working

[modern belfry]

i think the port shorted somehow

[zenith silo]

does it not work at all?

[modern belfry]

nope, last time i plugged it in it made like a tshhh sound and stopped working

[zenith silo]

yeah that doesnt sound very good

[modern belfry]

and the burnt smell came from the port and cable

i dont get why that happened tho

[zenith silo]

unfortunately customer support is absolutely swamped so it might take another few days-a week

[modern belfry]

thats sad

[zenith silo]

especially when they gotta sort through all the idiots making pointless customer support tickets and such

[modern belfry]

u think it would be possible for me to order a new pcb from wooting, and when they answer me and IF they accept the shorted pcb under warranty, that they refund me for the purchased new pcb?

cuz i got hella used to the wooting keyboard and shi aint feel the same with another kb xd

[zenith silo]

im not sure, however i also think that might end up taking quite a bit longer to order a new module

[modern belfry]

especially when im talking bout playing cs

[zenith silo]

to my knowledge when wooting does ship out warrenty units they are fast tracked so they dont need to wait as long as back ordering normally

[modern belfry]

last time it took all the parts like 4-5 days to arrive

[modern belfry]

damn thats good info, never heard that

[zenith silo]

yeah it heavily depends on whether they have stock/how far along the production line the next batch is

[zenith silo]

take that with a grain of salt i dont work there just from what ive seen replacement/warranty units get sent out quite quick

[modern belfry]

alright thanks for the useble info g

[zenith silo]

hope all goes well with your keyboard

[modern belfry]

thanks, hope so too xd

12GB VRAM isn't bad, don't mind it for what should realistically target.. mid-end of next gen I suppose?

16 would be preferable but 12 is fine

Iirc 3000 series XT refresh brought no improvements of meaningful kind

Okay it brought some improvements

But basically irrelevant still

I remember those memes Making 3600XT out of 3600X by overclocking it by 100MHz

[cursive summit]

I guess AMD still had lots of silicon somewhere in a warehouse and are just giving it a small OC to rid of stocks?

[umbral heron]

Basically - they wanted to get rid of everything Zen 2 they couldn't stuff into APUs

[cursive summit]

I mean, Zen 5 is upon us soon

Seems they really want to get rid of stocks of Zen 3

They really overproduced on Zen 3 eh?

[umbral heron]

I'd say Zen 3 has a bit more in it than Zen 2, as it is the last gen supported by AM4, so quite popular among folks who don't want to upgrade to AM5 yet

[cursive summit]

Yeah I'm on Zen 3 even when I could have flipped to Zen 4

But with Zen 5 soon, I dunno why I wouldn't hop onto AM5

A lot of performance improvements from 2 3 generations of X3D from my non-X3D chip

[old marlin]

makes some sense for china

since the mobos and ram is still cheap

[cursive summit]

China is banning AMD though

Or something like that

Well, one of the Chinas, the good China is still great

[old marlin]

they can probably get around that

XT might just mean it gets made in china

which is what the ban would mainly be about

YouTube comments where you can see nobody has an idea of what components cost

[old marlin]

you can make a solid plastic frame

and it being metal does not mean it is actually a solid frame

[wheat plume]

Yeah i know

but an $850 laptop with the strong Thinkpad branding attachted to it???

nah

this should not happen

[reef patrol]

The video literally explains the difference.

Enterprise in name only

[inland root]

Is here anyone knowing good about pcs ?

[reef patrol]

Only one way to find out. Ask your question.

[inland root]

I switched my cpu and this showed off idk what i have to do

[crimson wigeon]

Read what it says

Basically, do you use BitLocker or similar?

[inland root]

I dont even know what this is so probably no

[crimson wigeon]

Then hit Y

[inland root]

Looks normal. It was not much but thank you .I thought i can do a terrible mistake. ✌️

[reef patrol]

Basically if you had encryption enabled for your PC, you would have had to swap back to the old CPU, disable it and redo the swap.

[fair gull]

or use the recovery key

[reef patrol]

The one they definitely have, when they don't know what the feature even is

could be interesting ig

[hollow flume]

I would like to know if I want to adjust it to just 2 profiles, and can I switch profiles with just one button? If so, what can I do? Please advise.

[reef patrol]

Always gotta have four profiles, but you can just toggle between two of them.

[hollow flume]

how to do that i need 1 button to switch between 2 profile

[reef patrol]

You bind MODE to a key. Or just hold FN and tap Enter on the 60HE out of the box

[hollow flume]

thank a lot bro ❤️

[vagrant pagoda]

Also that is barely clicking

[dusk cedar]

that is clicking plenty

[vagrant pagoda]

[reef patrol]

And I repeat - All possible - If you know what the feature is to begin with!
(Or use an MS account in the first place)

[dusk cedar]

[rough patrol]

You can post it once

And people will see it

If you post it everywhere its spam

[dusk cedar]

i posted it with questions on different chats

not a big deal imo

[vagrant pagoda]

Spamming is a big deal

[pale sigil]

@dusk cedar please don't cross post

[vagrant pagoda]

As it isn't against the rules

[dusk cedar]
