[pale sigil]

I'm baffled these are still used wtf

[wheat plume]

even my HP Omen needs it

.-.

and it's PSU has the worst coil whine ever :/

[pale sigil]

I haven't had a monitor that uses these since like 2011

[crimson wigeon]

It's so they can cheap out on some certification thing

[pale sigil]

Oh

[wheat plume]

I need to use headphones when using this monitor otherwise the coil whine from its PSU brick gives me a headache

[pale sigil]

You're a strange one.

[steep creek]

O wow

[umbral heron]

Aren't we all?

[steep creek]

My monitor also has an external psu but I haven’t noticed any coil whine from it

It’s kinda annoying for cable management however

[wheat plume]

Yeh....the brick for mine is almost falling off the back of my desk cause the cable from the brick to the monitor isn't long enough to rest the brick on the ground instead and I don't want the brick hanging halfway to the ground and pulling on the monitor connection

[steep creek]

Aha yea I need an extension cord for mine to avoid it pulling

[wheat plume]

Mine is on an extension cable already .-.

[steep creek]

lol I see

[wheat plume]

Only two plugs in the room and they are at the opposite wall to my desk

Which fucking sucks

[steep creek]

Oh yea that’s unfortunate

[gentle marsh]

Can someone recommend some nice looking keycaps for the wooting mine not looking that good anymore but i cant find some with ISO German layout…..

[analog sinew]

pbtfans has international kits usually

I like their designs

[lyric hatch]

A lot of monitors still come with those connectors

Asus/LG i know do

[gentle marsh]

Thanks i will look at that

[balmy vector]

Msi as well sometimes

[wheat plume]

MSI Claw is a great advertisement for the ROG Ally :')

Cause the Ally is better and cheaper

[umbral heron]

MSI Claw is a perfect allegory of what state MSI is in nowadays

[wheat plume]

True...

At least it doesnt melt SD cards like the Ally, well AFAIK so far

no one bought it so the sample space is small

[wheat plume]

Apparently you need to Dock the MSI Claw and use a 100W or higher charger in order to update the Claw BIOS

Which means, you cant use the charger it comes with to update the BIOS

[balmy vector]

Truly the most amazing designed product

[wheat plume]

Steam Deck gets better FPS in Cyberpunk than the Claw apparently

[vagrant pagoda]

Look at them 1 and 0.1s

[wheat plume]

YEP XD

[vagrant pagoda]

Legion with a 50+% drop to 1% is gonna be shitty

[balmy vector]

Delicious lows

[crimson wigeon]

Damn deck got some consistent framerates there

[vagrant pagoda]

Wonder if that's Linux or just deck hardware

[wheat plume]

Id say its GameScope

GameScope + Wayland

cause playing games in desktop mode on the Deck IMO so far is not smooth feeling, it gets over 60FPS but it doesnt feel smooth

and desktop mode uses KWIN and X11

[frozen ingot]

its been pretty much standard since those times

I haven't seen a monitor with a proper 3-pin in a long time

[ashen spindle]

its absolutely the hardware has nothign to do with gamescope

if MTLs LPE-cores just fuck up lows

[wheat plume]

the lows are good on the Deck, its shit on the Claw though

[balmy vector]

Id cry if i had to play that on the claw

[vagrant pagoda]

I mean all 3 amd apus are rdna2+/3

But the lows are massively different

[ashen spindle]

sure but the reason claw has such super bad lows is because of meteor lakes tiles

then the deck has van gogh which has much better scaling at low power which is where most of the other parts come from

better uncore compared to phoenix

[vagrant pagoda]

Yeah but the deck vs the other amd is the big deal

[ashen spindle]

yeah and thats still 90% because of hardware I would say

[vagrant pagoda]

But even with 30w ally isn't competing

That isnt really low power

[wheat plume]

I wonder will there be a Raspberry Pi 5000?

cause the 4000 is so neat but the RP5 is faster overall

🤔 why so specific?!

[sharp badger]

https://youtu.be/l30sADfDiM8 Dunno but i actually have a Pi video in Watch later lol

[reef patrol]

He made a sequel to that

....that was the sequel. Ignore me.

[sharp badger]

Also interesting that Disney is using SD to control the robots in their ''imagineering'' lab

[wheat plume]

oooo thats awesome :D

they even kept Linux installed

I cant figure out how to stop my Neo4J Aura instance ....

[reef patrol]

Ugh.... my headphone earpads are tearing, and I can't seem to find replacements outside of Ali. 😦

[frozen ingot]

grabem

[reef patrol]

I dunwanna. Too expensive (and faux leather instead of felt)

[sharp badger]

What headphones? 👀

[reef patrol]

Basically the Game One from Sennheiser. Using these cups
https://www.eposaudio.com/en/dk/gaming/products/hzp-26-gaming-ear-pads-1000428

[sharp badger]

How about these?

https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Compatible-Sennheiser-Headset-Earmuffs-Black2-Black-2/dp/B08B1FTVCX/ref=sr_1_3

https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Geekria-Comfort-Replacement-Sennheiser-Headphones-Thick-velvet/dp/B07T9T54Z1/ref=sr_1_4

[reef patrol]

How the fu.... I already tried Amazon. 😮

Thanks a bunch, @sharp badger

Definitely glad to pay a tenth for these of what a new pair or similar would cost.

[sharp badger]

Yeah, always nice to get a good deal 😄 👍

[reef patrol]

My 373Ds are old at this point, but I just can't be arsed to go shopping for something to replace what has become "perfect" for me.

It has a decent mic, it's open back, and the volume wheel is easy to use.

Probably one of Sennheisers last good gaming products before it was split off.

[sharp badger]

Yeah, it checks your boxes and also prolonging the use is also a bonus 👌 😄

[distant tapir]

Changing pads is scary since pads can greatly change the sound.

[sharp badger]

Yeah have been happy with the swaps i've had though

Changed to some Wicked Cushions on my Maxwells and on the old K550MK2 to some Brainwavz

[reef patrol]

No getting around it unfortunately. The lining has begun to tear.

I could thankfully delay it by turning the pad 180 degrees temporarily

Six years is not bad though. A lot of the stuff I reviewed from around that time broke within 2-3 years, Corsair, Razer and others 😄

[pale sigil]

Maybe it's a sign to get good headphones :p

[reef patrol]

Perhaps - I'd rather not be browsing while I don't have functional ones. Kind of need them for work every day

And finding "good" headphones with a mic is a rarity.

[pale sigil]

Sadly good headphones don't have a mic.

Time to invest in a mod mic

[reef patrol]

Heck no. One cable.

[ashen spindle]

ew cables

[sharp badger]

The Maxwell have a ''Okay'' mic but i use a seperate mic so eh

[pale sigil]

https://antlionaudio.com/collections/microphones/products/modmic-wireless?variant=12529444126775

[reef patrol]

No more batteries 😄

I'll wait for this pair to break before having to compromise.

[sharp badger]

https://interestingengineering.com/science/sodium-battery-charged-in-seconds

[ashen spindle]

meh

we have some sodium batteries finally but still need to see more mass production first

[sharp badger]

Yeah still interesting

[ashen spindle]

at first sure but I dont think it matters much

fast charging would mostly matter for like a car where it's still important to not increase weight so lithium has an advantage

grid storage doesnt need that fast charging

[sharp badger]

Yeah, sure but nice to have another alternative

[cursive summit]

You show how outdated your knowledge is with this statement lol

[reef patrol]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyeCn7HlLck

Oh no. The one device to end me.

suffers from "hearing old tube TVs" syndrome

[frozen ingot]

hypnotoad device

[sharp badger]

Maybe Venjent could use that sound for something lol

[zenith silo]

My family thought I was crazy because I could hear it🤣

[sharp badger]

Gaming early mornings and starting the TV hearing the high pitched sound thinking it would wake everyone lol

[final flame]

it's not even that high pitched, it's about 15 to 17khz

[zenith silo]

Really?

Does that just mean my parents/grandparents have really bad hearing?

[pale sigil]

What?

[final flame]

grandparent's would likely just loose it with age, and depending on how old your parents are, it could be concerning

[reef patrol]

Naw. Most people can't hear it regardless of age.

[final flame]

it does tend to naturally get tuned out by your brain over time
but also every tv is different, some are louder and worse than others

[reef patrol]

I'm referring to the ones who had it from factory - and that most people would never be able to hear

[proud thistle]

Does anyone know if the wooting 60he works on Xbox series X

[reef patrol]

As a keyboard? Sure. If you disable nKRO

You'll still need a PC to configure it in any way

[sharp badger]

Getting there 👌

[cursive summit]

38" already? Wonderful

That's very much computer display size at 21:9 even if on the higher end

If not for price, whatever this will cost, OLED would be dead already

[balmy vector]

ever so closer to perfection

[cursive summit]

There's tech that is I suppose superior already that microled in research stage

But microled in my eyes is going to be the new standard

Replacing all the LCDs and OLEDs as the superior panel tech

[ashen spindle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bEKOp1GLDs

didnt see that when it was uploaded 10 days ago

also good example for VA smear in there

[south pulsar]

I wanna know how rapid trigger works with all the technical aspects of stuff like the how the pcb is made and how the software works

Rapid trigger is the big part of wooting fascinates me and I wanna help work and develop the industry with features like rapid trigger

[fierce terrace]

rapid trigger is software based

and software is opensource

i mean firmware

[south pulsar]

well yeah but like how does it change the way the switch is read by the computer?

[fierce terrace]

sorry tought u meant rappy snappy

[ashen spindle]

rapid trigger is also software based like snappy

[fierce terrace]

anyways ^

[south pulsar]

would this question be better suited for a different channel?

[ashen spindle]

#🤖│community_dev if you want to deep dive I guess

[lyric hatch]

i imagine in basic sense it just takes the analogue data from key and when it is updated to be within your rapid trigger lift off range it resets the switch

can't imagine it's very easy to replicate the pcb since most wooting clones use the same pcb and the firmware is usually just straight from the pcb manufacturer

[empty wren]

@scenic kayak

Made some mileage progress since last time

[visual junco]

anyone know how to get your macro on wootimation on repeat?

[zenith silo]

Don't think you can, at least not yet

I seen someone mention they might be adding it soon

[limpid grail]

Hi all : ) just wondering how I can get a game to start using my keyboard as a gamepad? I finally have a game I can test it on but it's not reading any of my inputs

[zenith silo]

Go to your settings in wootility and set it to gamepad mode

Also gotta bind the controller inputs to an analog profile

[limpid grail]

I did this part, but I forgot to do the first I guess. Thank you lol

[vernal vortex]

anyone dell aw27 360hz qd oled ? setting panel

[static plaza]

Hey, if I "disable gamepad" mode for the 60HE do I still get to use the analogue actuation for the keys?

[wheat plume]

yep yep

[static plaza]

Cool. I think it's messing with my Steam causing disconnects etc.

[reef patrol]

Depends on what you mean. Rapid Trigger? Sure.
Pushing down a key halfway and moving slower than if its pushed down fully? (If the game supports it), no

[static plaza]

Yeah, rapid trigger is what I was going for, couldn't remember what it was called.

[royal crow]

Hi there ordering Wooting60he+ was wondering if I could get it in white case with the white 60HE+ Module - also what foarms etc are used?

[unkempt gyro]

Wrong keyboard

[wheat plume]

Gnome 40 really missed the chance to make the album art preview have rounded corners too

it looks strange being the only element with square corners

[knotty summit]

I need help, where is the tilde key on this keyboard

~

THIS

How

[lyric hatch]

Fn + shift + esc

[knotty summit]

Doesn't work

[sweet cairn]

Should just be FN + Esc

check your wootility

[lyric hatch]

fn + esc is this `

[knotty summit]

¸

This

Is fn + esc

[sweet cairn]

Are you ANSI?

[knotty summit]

ISO

:(

[wheat plume]

fn + shift + esc works for me

[knotty summit]

¨

This is it

[crimson wigeon]

It depends on your keyboard layout, how do you do a tilde on a full size keyboard?

[sweet cairn]

I have no idea what it is for ISO, check wootility, you can see what it is and cusotmize it there.

[wheat plume]

cant customise ~ on Wootility 😢

[knotty summit]

Yeah

Can't do that shi

It's shift coded

[sweet cairn]

yeah you can lol

[wheat plume]

you would need to make a new keyboard layout and set it in your OS to possibly move this key

[wheat plume]

? no?

[sweet cairn]

It's in FN layer 1 by default on the esc key, you can move it however you like.

[knotty summit]

Its different for me

[wheat plume]

I cant move it

[sweet cairn]

It's because you are ISO I think, but if you check your FN layers in wootility, you should be able to see what key it is.

[knotty summit]

It only exists on US layout

Windows layout

[crimson wigeon]

So how did you do a tilde on your previous keyboard then? You need to hit that key combo!

[wheat plume]

its hardcodes to your language layout in the OS

also this is showing US layout on UK key layout? wtf

[knotty summit]

Yeah

[wheat plume]

RE: Windows CoPilot being automatically installed in all Windows 11 PCs

What a mess

[vagrant pagoda]

Mega oof

[shadow minnow]

Ek going down

[gusty kiln]

yeah it seems like there's no way to turn the ship around with the current upper management

what do people think of LTT nowadays?

did they turn it around?

[ashen spindle]

we'll have to see when they do the next review I guess

but I havent cared for their reviews in a long time, it's more a fun channel if they have some big tour or similar

[supple nest]

LTT has always been entertainment not actual research or insight, highly doubt that will ever change

[ashen spindle]

I do think they could make labs and their things a useable version of userbenchmark

but that's still going to be a bit out

[supple nest]

I dont think they have any interest in doing it

[ashen spindle]

I mean thats what they said they wanted to do explicitly with their benchmark tools lol

[lyric hatch]

https://www.lttlabs.com/

The website is up now

Has limited stuff on it since it just came up but looks not terrible

[fierce terrace]

(obviously not inspired by linus tech tips)

wanted to check keyboards

and its nothing there

linus hello

[ashen spindle]

yeah its just in beta to test things

they said thats how they are going to start things

[umbral heron]

Knowing LTT I certainly won't go anywhere near there for any "analysis"

[fierce terrace]

second that

bro this site is pure trash

[ashen spindle]

oh yeah but for things like specific games a custom hosted site akin to userbenchmark could be nice if you want to find a hardware recommendation based on a game thats not on reviewers list

[fierce terrace]

opened this https://www.lttlabs.com/articles/gpu/nvidia-geforce-rtx-4080-super-16gb

opened hardware

one thing on the right

second thing on the left

3rd thing about the clocks on the far left and far right

tf is this

[ashen spindle]

man if the only issue you have with a site in beta is left/right spacing then that's a good sign xD

[fierce terrace]

nah this is terrible site design

[lyric hatch]

The graphs are nice and allow a lot of customization

[fierce terrace]

put that information in a straight line

way easier to read

[ashen spindle]

then click the feedback button and tell them that

like thats the point of a beta

and site formatting can be changed at any time, I don't think that really matters, if it has useable data and I could use it to look at things I wouldnt care if it's alternating between left right up down and diagonally every other box

[fierce terrace]

site formatting does matter a lot

look at userbenchmark

[ashen spindle]

if the other options are userbenchmark and [empty void of no other sites] I'm not deciding what to use based on looks

[fierce terrace]

everyone doest take their community stats seriously

but still

[wheat plume]

Or game banana
It's impossible to know if you are logged in or not on that damn website

[fierce terrace]

many of people looks at 'em first

just because their site design is clear and easy to read/compare

[lyric hatch]

Techpowerup still the goat for me

[fierce terrace]

too bad that they are so so slow about mices...

[ashen spindle]

tpu is nice but has the same as other sites, if I want to look at what hardware to use for game X specifically that isn't tested by any reviewer, it's not helping that much either

[fierce terrace]

tpus is testing things about mices that rtings does not

for example polling rate stability

[ashen spindle]

yeah I know and I do like tpu for many things

[lyric hatch]

Wish someone would test rapid trigger properly

[vagrant pagoda]

Lol

[vagrant pagoda]

I mean the actual benchmark side has always been one of the best

[supple nest]

Anyone got rec's for a mouse in the g502 or razer basilisk vein I've used both and and looking for similar options price not a concern

[mild dome]

What do you want in a mouse? Light weight and easy to click heads or heavy and stacked to the brim with buttons?

[supple nest]

the g502 and basilisk are my prefered shape two side buttons would be nice

something without a dumb software to install would be nice

don't care much about weight

[final flame]

keychron m6

[supple nest]

keychron makes mice?

huh

[final flame]

https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-m6-wireless-mouse?variant=40664466849881

there's also the light version of the logitech software, doesn't run in the background and instead stores your profile onto the mouse
could uninstall it after you configure it

[supple nest]

I suppose i will just go back to g502

[gusty kiln]

are you using on-board memory manager?

[supple nest]

I'm using a basilisk pro right now

[gusty kiln]

Logitech onboard memory manager is a barebones software that lets you change settings on logitech mice

won't bother you like g-hub or synapse and does not need to be running

but if you want no software at all, then it's either zowie or vaxee mice

[supple nest]

I don't think Zowie makes anything in this size

i don't think i've seen vaxee

[gusty kiln]

EC1-W is pretty big

[supple nest]

I like the thumb rest

the basi and 502 have

hell i would be happy with just saving led settings

on the mouses on board memory

looking at razer there

[gusty kiln]

then g502 using obmm is probably your best option

[supple nest]

oh wow you can get a g502 super cheap these days

[gusty kiln]

G502X is the newest version

[supple nest]

$45

oh wait

amazon was messing with me

(renewed)

[final flame]

refurb moment

[supple nest]

i could honestly just get a 502 hero

for $35

🍿

I don't use wireless anyway

[languid pawn]

good for you, when I tried wireless I couldn't go back without my brain nitpicking the wire resistance

[supple nest]

literally can't notice it

im blessed i guess

then again I have a few grand of audio gear on my desk

so maybe cursed in other ways

[gusty kiln]

a nice cable bungee can make a wired mice feel just as good as wireless

[primal pagoda]

what actuation do you guys use

i feel like 0.8 makes me overstrafe in cs

i keep overstrafing for no reason

[zenith silo]

0.1 on wasd

[primal pagoda]

wtf

[fierce badger]

i use 0.1 on WASD

[worn echo]

i wish there was a way to bind it to other keys, and add a fourth color. that would be so cool for rythem games

[wheat plume]

Why is the command to make a constraint in MongoDB called "createIndex"?

Indexs are different to constraints usually

[fair gull]

because mongodb is considered schemaless i believe

[wheat plume]

yeh it is

[fair gull]

yeah thats why

schemaless DBs (at least to my knowledge) dont enforce constraints except unique by marking smth as index. everything else is usually constrained by whatever interacts with the DB

[halcyon moss]

its not a constraint, its an index.

[fair gull]

well they use it as a "constraint"

[halcyon moss]

while also being a constraint i guess

[fair gull]

yeh but its smth unique to nosql DBs

[halcyon moss]

and unreliable 😄

[fair gull]

correct

[halcyon moss]

why are you doing a constraint in mongo

@wheat plume

[fair gull]

i guess work

[halcyon moss]

i guessed as well

as to what is the reason

[wheat plume]

to prevent the same user profile being added twice

cause you can insert the same data into mongo as much as you like and it doesnt give a shit

but we only want one instance of the user in the collection

im in charge of cleaning up duplicates .-.

the fact they havent been using constraints already is shocking

[rough patrol]

Job security

[wheat plume]

LOL

I mean, they clearly dont give a fuck about security

I have access to all user data in this collection
and im using my personal laptop.... with my own wifi network

I could do anything I want with this data

They either trust me or they dont realise this is a stupid

[rough patrol]

Both

[wheat plume]

none of the other staff have been given work laptops either, so they must trust us all!!!

[wild hedge]

It’s my first time modding a keyboard. I got the tofu redux and ws dash keycaps. Do you think I should burger mount it and if so which size o rings should I get?

[reef patrol]

Try over in #🔧│keyboard_modding

[wild hedge]

Oh sorry didn’t see that

[wheat plume]

Maybe I am using too many virtual desktops....

each dot is a virtual desktop

idk how to do this shit in mongo .-.

got to add a value to an already existing value in the documents but I accidently added a new parameter instead

[halcyon moss]

I mean.. You're a dev. Of course you have access

[umbral heron]

Devs get access to very limited subset of stuff on the network
And get scolded if they ask for more

[wheat plume]

yeah, that isnt the stupid part

The stupid part is that its on my personal laptop on my personal wifi network
I can send this data to anyone I wanted to and theyd never know

leak all the company code LOL

[halcyon moss]

Yup.. And you won't. It's trust. You're a dev. You have "rce" access anyway

[umbral heron]

I have unlimited access to pretty much every single device in our company
And I use my personal PC to do stuff at home because I'm too lazy to carry work laptop

[wheat plume]

idk about you, but my friend has to use a company laptop and company setup VPN access to even login to his work account

and hes just a dev too

the laptop is setup to monitor everything he does incase he tries to leak shit

[umbral heron]

VPN is a must, exposing servers to the internet is just asking for trouble

[halcyon moss]

I don't want to work there

[halcyon moss]

It's on gce, so you need a strong login anyway

[wheat plume]

I said that to the manager and they were like "What do you know, you arent the networking team" basically

[halcyon moss]

And kubernetes.. No need for a vpn

[wheat plume]

there is non of that, I just ssh into the server over the IP address....

I just need the username and password

[steep creek]

Looks like they haven’t learnt the hard way.. yet

[wheat plume]

they have 🤦‍♀️ data breach from a company employee who got pissed off about something
leaked the managers data

[umbral heron]

We have some elaborate programs to scan our work laptops, lansweeper, some custom scripts, they even pull browser history, only they can fix anything that happens and preconfigure everything on laptops etc.
On Windows

On Linux it's basically - you have encrypted drive? Aight, go on then

[wheat plume]

as a result, they have a seperate database for staff !!! woooo

[steep creek]

Oh I guess slow progress it is then lol

[wheat plume]

yeah....

[wheat plume]

at least they let you use Linux .-.

even my company's servers are fucking windows

🤦‍♀️

[umbral heron]

Should they make us use Windows*, half of the datacenter team would quit on the spot

[wheat plume]

LOL

[rough patrol]

Only half?

[umbral heron]

Half of them uses Windows, mostly because of Windows servers we have to have, because some of our corporate partners use dedicated proprietary and heavily customized software which works only on Windows

Out of 16 people in our team, 13 use Linux, 1 use Windows and 2 use both

[fair gull]

corporate software requiring windows... hate that shit

[halcyon moss]

Docker solves most of that

[fair gull]

made a snaffu there

though about one os and wrote it instead of what i wanted to

[wheat plume]

ayy, most linux

[halcyon moss]

Anyway, docker still solves most of that :p

[wheat plume]

aha

[halcyon moss]

thats not a lot

[wheat plume]

11mb worth xd

yeh is small

[umbral heron]

Huh

[wheat plume]

🤔

[ashen spindle]

Seems normal?

[umbral heron]

I mean why DP goes with 240Hz, but HDMI with 144Hz

[lyric hatch]

Because hdmi 2.0 maxes out at 144hz 1440p

[ashen spindle]

If it’s not 2.1 hdmi doesn’t have dsc

[umbral heron]

Oh, that makes sense

[ashen spindle]

And even dp 1.2 has more bandwidth than hdmi 2.0

[umbral heron]

I can get AW2723DF or AW2721D for pretty cheap, 23 being €20 more expensive

[wheat plume]

this unix time?!

didnt expect to see that in a database running on windows server...

[old marlin]

what

that is the default timestamp format

[fair gull]

iirc cant run windows in docker on linux host

[ashen spindle]

Did you think windows uses windows time that starts 5 days earlier or something?

[umbral heron]

Everything is possible with a bit of magic and KVM https://github.com/dockur/windows

[fair gull]

not really docker anymore if it needs kvm

the point of docker is to not have a vm running for a container

[fair gull]

i mean technically

very very technically.... .Net has smth where the epoch starts at 01.01.1

here we go https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.datetimeoffset?view=net-8.0

[ashen spindle]

Yeah I know but that’s just for .net but I guess you could say it’s Microsoft’s version of it

[umbral heron]

Ah yes, delevompent

[ashen spindle]

Yeah generics always look funny lol

what usb c cable can i use instead of the one wooting gives ?

[old marlin]

andy cable that is compliant to USB spec

[fair gull]

the crap doesnt it just put TResult first and then a variable arg number

[umbral heron]

argc and argv are concepts a bit too advanced

[crimson wigeon]

Well yeah it is for Windows, apparently there programs receive arguments as a single string and have to split it themselves

[vagrant pagoda]

You run KVM in the container silly

[wheat plume]

how many layers of emulation can you go? XD

[fair gull]

that seems worse honestly

[vagrant pagoda]

It is

But you can manage it like any container

[wheat plume]

I was wondering why I couldnt filter the database by customers from America....

the dataset has a space after the A 🤦‍♀️

"America "

[reef patrol]

The Americas are a big place with lots of countries.

[wheat plume]

yeah, but my query didnt work cause I forgot the space I didnt see was there .-.

it can filter America > State > City

but nothing from America was showing up cause my query searched for "America" instead of "America "

I thought my query was invalid..not the fucking dataset

[haughty rover]

Can someone help me. I’ve had this issue way before getting a wooting. Basically, if I unplug my keyboard and then plug it back in, it doesn’t work. I’ve tried different cables, usb ports, bought new keyboards, I’ve tried doing the power management stuff, everything. I’m getting annoying and need help

[rough patrol]

Ok buy why are you unplugging your keyboard mid usage

[knotty sand]

may we talk about the gpu prices

[wheat plume]

is the cable for your keyboard coming from a USB Hub?

[umbral heron]

That happens only with keyboards, with keyboard, mice etc. or with any USB device?

[haughty rover]

Only my keyboard.

[haughty rover]

Nope. Plugged into the motherboard

[umbral heron]

So problem with keyboard HID driver most likely
Uninstalling keyboards in Device Manager and reboot to force Windows to reinstall should help
For Linux that may be a problem with udev

[haughty rover]

I just uninstalled the root hub, going to restart the pc then leave my keyboard u plugged for 10 mins or so and see if it works when I plug it back in

[wheat plume]

If you use the Code block feature in WPS Office and open that document in MS Office, will it render correctly?

I dont want / like pasting code directly into a document... feels strange, so I used the code block instead

[halcyon moss]

time to do a migration 😄

[halcyon moss]

America is 2 continents though

[wheat plume]

ah yes, ofc...the trailing space represents the second one

/S

WPS Spreadsheets wont open this file, its stuck loading for nearly 10 minutes

csv is a widely supported i thought

[halcyon moss]

yes

word perfect ?

that still existS?

[wheat plume]

huh?

WPS Office

[halcyon moss]

wps?

[wheat plume]

is an office suite

the most compatible with MS Office

https://www.wps.com/

[old marlin]

Didn't they get bought by ms

Apparently not

Owned by alludo

Had a release in 2021

[wheat plume]

fucking hell, over 1mill online

They're using it to generate stuff iirc.

[sonic smelt]

Can you use lekkar switches on an Akko magnetic keyboard, and vise versa

[rough patrol]

Love this guys videos

[tepid oxide]

guys how can i swap my wooting uwu switches

[rough patrol]

He could make a 6 hour video about the in depth process of paint drying and i‘d watch the fuck out of it

[rough patrol]

Use a keypuller

[tepid oxide]

i dopnt have one

[halcyon moss]

He likes his puns

[wheat plume]

Yeh xd

And general sass

[lyric hatch]

No pretty sure akko uses a different pin layout

[sonic smelt]

How do you know what aftermarket switches

[supple nest]

pretty much just gateron right now from what i understand

could be wrong

[umbral heron]

ffs
Netflix - 80zł/mo
Prime - 10zł/mo
Disney+ - 20zł/mo
HBO Max - 30zł/mo
Polsat Box Go - 30zł/mo

All that, but when I want to watch Ocean's Eleven now I have to pay 10zł on top of that to "rent" the movie? Fuck that

[supple nest]

i have no idea why anyone would pay for streaming services tbh

[fierce terrace]

its easier if you share accounts buddy

[sharp badger]

Only had HBO Max for GOT, Netflix had a few interesting series but just stopped watching stuff there because of the selection i'd just rent a movie from Youtube nowadays

[umbral heron]

I don't use them, my parents, auntie, grandma and brother do
I watch a movie once a week maybe

[frozen ingot]

people need to coonsoom content

something to distract them from their existential dread

[umbral heron]

I prefer books
And anything that sits on my Jellyfin instance

[halcyon moss]

I have a rule to only have one vid service at a time

[smoky frigate]

me who never gave these assholes a penny

[umbral heron]

Speaking of

[fierce terrace]

you lil thiefs

[smoky frigate]

you see the light!

[fierce terrace]

im gonna put you in jail for this one

[frozen ingot]

stealing is based

[cinder tinsel]

guys

[fierce terrace]

well sometimes you have to

[cinder tinsel]

i bought a pc

[fierce terrace]

for example to watch oppenheimer in 4k with dolby atmos and close-to-cinema quality

you just have to suck it from the bay

[cinder tinsel]

my first pc in my life

and im gonna build it

[cinder tinsel]

risky

[umbral heron]

I'm up there already for a long time

[frozen ingot]

piracy not theft tho just permanent loan without permission

[lyric hatch]

one day ill get my jellyfin server setup, but atm my friends plex is working well

[fierce terrace]

holy

[smoky frigate]

fuccin noice. can't rely on torrents too much due to bloodthirsty lawyers

[fierce terrace]

nah they aint gonna do sht

they aim for the bay owners mostly

[smoky frigate]

depends where you live, where I do it's easy to get a few hundred from some sucker caught torrenting

but it's usually just for shit that's recently released

[umbral heron]

Here they cared once or twice when people pirated some shitty Polish romantic comedies
No one cares about anything else
Everyone knows everyone pirates everything

[fierce terrace]

im pretty sure no one actually use their pc for seeding

[fierce terrace]

you just pay like 3€ for a shell server and you're fine

[sweet cairn]

Only sub you need is a vpn

[umbral heron]

What for?

[blazing crescent]

I set one up and none of my friends use it 😭

[distant tapir]

I don't use a VPN ever no matter what I torrent.

[lyric hatch]

plex is a much easier sell, with it being supported on pretty much everything

[fierce terrace]

yea using vpn makes you suck it slow

[blazing crescent]

Yea I guess

[frozen ingot]

if its a bad vpn sure

Ah right im here to ask if the usb c slot of the board is soldered on or is it on in another way (for if I ever need replacements (I don’t know much about pcbs))

[umbral heron]

It's soldered on 60HE and UwU, 2HE and 80HE use daughterboards

[woven laurel]

I expect you to know this pie chan

smh

I did not read that

[blazing crescent]

I’m failing at my entire life

[woven laurel]

I think you are at the beginning of figuring it out

getting it sorted

[blazing crescent]

Wut did I say in that deleted message that was so criminal in this discussion about pirating

[woven laurel]

we are not breaking laws ok

[blazing crescent]

Perhaps

[umbral heron]

Back when I was living in my family town, our local ISP used to turn the Internet speeds up during the night to basically as much as infrastructure could handle, called that Internet Turbo
What people used it for is another thing entirely

[woven laurel]

logical

its also cheaper to run the large household electronics at night

[blazing crescent]

What else would you use it for..

[smoky frigate]

downloading linux isos

burning them on DVDs, then throwing them at passing cars on the motorway

[blazing crescent]

Efficiency

[umbral heron]

I thought about setting up T2 Arch mirror
I have spare server space and disk space
Heck, I use SSDs as coasters

[pseudo cipher]

Verbesserung Vorschläge?

[umbral heron]

Yeet 14900, swap it for something 7xxx Ryzen X3D
And for the saved money get 4080 instead of 4070Ti

7900X3D is €450 on Amazon for example
And you can get 4080 Super with that then

[supple nest]

solid advice

[hasty thunder]

i wouldn't pick the 7900X3D if it's for gaming only

[blissful imp]

7800X3D better

[hasty thunder]

since the 7900X3D is a multi die CPU

[ashen spindle]

oh yeah didnt notice that, probably a typo, 7800x3d is the only option

[blissful imp]

I went from 3900x to 5800x3D

staying at AM4 for now.

performance gain, which I used exactly same board. is actually quite amazing, that I was genuinely surprised

[astral haven]

Looks like intels new ai score is lower than their last one, they needed to say ai another 71 times to beat their previous high score

[ashen spindle]

dont worry computex AI-tex gives them a new chance soon

[astral haven]

ikr

[balmy vector]

Cant wait to see them beat their record

[vagrant pagoda]

AI/min is one of the dumbest units ive ever seen

i love it

[ashen spindle]

perfectly fits to the speeches they gave then

[umbral heron]

@astral haven! You know stuff about monitors - should I go for AW2723DF or AW2721D or something else entirely?

[vagrant pagoda]

5800x3d is still competative lol if only the msrp dropped

[steep creek]

Ai / min lmao

[ashen spindle]

price for it dropped quite a lot in the eu

like 280€(including tax)

[astral haven]

I dont have either, nor anything that uses their panels
I also really dislike IPS,
with those caveats, they are different years of the same monitor model, just get whichever is cheaper, or the newer faster one

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah it was 300 USD for a bit

now it back up to 340 USD

[vagrant pagoda]

no ips? what do like actually enjoy blacks being black?

[astral haven]

bleh
maybe avoid the new one in general, local dimming that bad is real pain

oh nvm it doesnt have local dimming, its edgelit

[drifting cypress]

Does the wooting 60he+ not support the v2 lekker switches?

[ashen spindle]

it does support them

[drifting cypress]

strange, I assume its an error that on the 60he page it shows the v1 switches vs the 80he page shows the v2

[ashen spindle]

the switches arent out yet

[drifting cypress]

Ah, I was told a running change was happening this month for them

[ashen spindle]

yeah idk when but it will be changed when they are updated

[thick jackal]

any1 know why i cant set per key actuation

doing this does nothing

[late compass]

anyone here got a 3d model of a case for the wooting 60he that i can 3d print?

[ashen spindle]

the wooting github has cad files

[limber cove]

how does one make a profile permanent

on laptop startup i have to change to my profile

[final flame]

put it on the top of the list

[limber cove]

its the only one i have

LOL

unless

hmm

oh its under inactive, is that why?

[final flame]

make sure you're actually pressing the save button in wootility

[limber cove]

i imported one

[final flame]

yea, that'd do it

[limber cove]

alright

thank you o7

[primal pagoda]

does anyone know what the rapid trigger sensitivity is

and do you guys keep it on high or low

ive used this keyboard for a few weeks and i still dont understand all the things

i'll look at some yt vods

[vagrant pagoda]

it literally tells you what right under the name

[primal pagoda]

i have it on low

which is 2.35mm

see what i dont know is if that means thats it the amount of distance before it resets or thats the depth of the key itself

[vagrant pagoda]

please read the description in wootilty again

[primal pagoda]

thank you for being so helpful 🙂

i appreciate it

[vagrant pagoda]

it anwsers your question

"The sensitivity determines how much you need to release the key to deactivate it and then press to activate it again"

so setting to 2.35 means the key has to be released 2.35mm to deactivate, then pressed 2.35 to activate

[spare valve]

yo my fn double movement doesnt work i did every tut possible to fix it still dont work

[frozen ingot]

yay more landfill

wtf does this do that smartphones can't

I really think we need to start shaming companies more for shitting out useless crap like this that does nothing but waste natural resources and pollute

[old marlin]

ngl

to me it is very important that those devices get honest reviews

to show how stupid they are

[umbral heron]

It's not about what it can do what smartphones can't
It's about what smartphones can do, but this thing can't

It'd be amazing in the world without smartphones

[frozen ingot]

$200 bucks for that

remove a 0 and it might be of some use for people who wants some alexa copypasta on the cheap

[cosmic thunder]

i dont understand whats the difference between this thing and on-device ai

[zenith silo]

Nothing

Unless you count the ugly orange plastic as a bonus

[cosmic thunder]

[steep creek]

Wonder how long these ai gadget guys can stay in business

[frozen ingot]

every semi interesting feature that thing boasts about isn't even on the actual device yet but still on the developer roadmap

[steep creek]

so they are actually selling an unfinished product lol

[frozen ingot]

who isn't these days

[steep creek]

fair

[mild dome]

So far I have been quite disappointed with AI.
It really does seem like the only thing it's useful for on the mass market is filling in missing information, cleaning up noise, plagiarism, or spouting insane misinformation

Why the fuck does the AI future have the robots doing art and humans doing manual labour?! This was supposed to be the other way around!

[halcyon moss]

turns out that stuff done on computers is easier than stuff in real life

[fair gull]

define easy

[halcyon moss]

easier

and we've automated shitloads of manual labor already.

[proud imp]

I've had an issue with my keyboard and I can't really replicate it

Don't know where to type this in

The issue is when I press 2 keys at the same time there's a chance it freezes the inputs for like 2 seconds

i just turned it up

[crimson oak]

help me please

[primal pagoda]

i thought low was high and high was low

@crimson oak #1019755933959733258

[vagrant pagoda]

Like?

Manual labor = unskilled physical work, something computers really can't do at all

[halcyon moss]

Paper press, loom, car manufacture robots

[vagrant pagoda]

None of those are computers, they are machines

You said stuff done on computers is easier than real life.

[halcyon moss]

What? You. Replied to the manual labor thing

[vagrant pagoda]

Computers have replaced massive sections of skilled labor jobs, and almost no manual labor jobs

[rough patrol]

Computers is also robots

[vagrant pagoda]

Also all of these machines replaced huge numbers of skilled labor jobs with a few manual labor jobs

[rough patrol]

Farming machines replaced a lot of manual labor jobs

[vagrant pagoda]

People say robots are coming for their jobs, not realizing how many skilled jobs computers replaced

[rough patrol]

Main thing coming for people‘s jobs is not computers or machines, it‘s executives

[vagrant pagoda]

Accounting firms, investors, banks etc needed 1000s of people to run numbers that just got replaced by one dude with excel.

Same for architects and engineers.

Excel/spreadsheet has replaced more jobs than ai lol

Hell Linus featured one in that last "wish" video

[gusty kiln]

@ashen spindle today is da day

[ashen spindle]

Yee I really hope they mention El Capitan online and GA for mi300 sales and maybe even Turin

And maybe even the Financial analyst day that should be later in June

[vagrant pagoda]

Laptop 4090 is just half power desktop 4080.

Wonder if they can bypass the power limit?

Because it might be better for most gaming uses vs a desktop 4080

Desktop 4080 uses 200%+ the power for only 25% clock boost.

So even if it used 150% power for the same clock boost it would be cooler and quieter

[ashen spindle]

Did they put it on to a G6 or G6X vram board though

[wheat plume]

is this a curled or straight quote????

"

cause apparently this cypher code has a mix of straight and curled quotes .-.

[fair gull]

you can literally tell by the text you see

if its straight its straight

if they are angled its curled

[marsh glade]

https://tenor.com/view/tiny-text-cant-see-ken-jeong-gif-5957945

me looking at which quote is getting used

[wheat plume]

apparently we must use the curly ones and idk how tf to type those

[fair gull]

“” vs ""

can you see the easy to spot difference

[marsh glade]

no

[fair gull]

lol

[marsh glade]

If I do this, then I can

[fair gull]

yeah the easy was sarcastic

idk whod actually enforce using curly quotes cause they basically look identical in a lot of fonts

especially at smaller font sizes

[wheat plume]

idk how to type these ones

[steep creek]

pretty sure even my professor mixes between those

[ashen spindle]

doesn that text snipped even say the non curly ones are the correct ones?

[wheat plume]

they arent the correct ones .-.

the manager is dumb

the code wont work in the database, clearly

but he dont know that yet

[fair gull]

i mean we dont have the rest of the text so we only know some parts use the curly ones

not if that should be the case or not

[ashen spindle]

it says these are correct unless there is a part missing that curly ones are supposed to be used for something else

[fair gull]

the thing is the sentence is a but sentence and we dont have the end of it

all we know is that " is correct BUT some parts use “ smth smth smth smth

also typing curly quotes depends on OS and keymap

[ashen spindle]

anyway just use unicode for whatever you need https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/quotes.html

[fair gull]

theres no universal way to type them

[wheat plume]

it just says neo4j requires straight quotes and to replace the curled ones

[reef patrol]

"

[fair gull]

so

[reef patrol]

Just shift + 2?

[fair gull]

wheres the issue lol

[rough patrol]

You can probably replace them all at once tbh

[ashen spindle]

so you press ctrl f or whatever the key is in your texteditor and do a replace all

[fair gull]

“ ” this is opening and closing curly

[wheat plume]

The issue is that the manager wants us to use the curled ones

.-.

[fair gull]

what

it says to not use them right there

[wheat plume]

I sent the file with the code through phind to see what the issue was when trying to import it .-.

and it told me this about the code having the curled qoutes

[rough patrol]

Your manager wants you to use quotes that wont work?

[wheat plume]

yes 🤦‍♀️

[rough patrol]

Tell your manager to fuck off

[fair gull]

oh this part wasnt a requirement but you trying to debug smth

[wheat plume]

id love to

[fair gull]

i mean the question is where does your manager want curly quotes

inside strings it makes sense

[wheat plume]

in the fucing cypher queries

[rough patrol]

Just say "some random guy on the internet wants me to tell you to fuck off"

[wheat plume]

:')

[fair gull]

unsure why the query would complain about curly quotes inside a string

[steep creek]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJQsAOon6og

[fair gull]

not beta anymore?

despite the bugs?

oh boi

[steep creek]

i got the 1.0 update couple hours ago

i notice some bugs but at least now it lets me install extensions ,,

[fair gull]

also url bar still only allowed to be in the top

no little arc

extensions like bitwarden still dont work properly with hotkeys

[steep creek]

yea mac arc vs windows arc is so different rn

[fair gull]

random crashes when opening new tabs

like the win version imo is still far from release ready

[steep creek]

my ublock refused to work in my study profile up until today lol

yea agree its not 1.0 worthy yet

[fair gull]

extensions trying to open a window for settings or such also still sometimes open in fullscreen no matter how you previously resized them

pip sometimes resizes to minimum size cause why not

multi window doesnt start properly with the previous spaces but all in the first available space

[steep creek]

yeah and also the way extensions open is a bit weird imo, the x to close them was invisible for me

also downloads list remains and i cant find any way to clear it, despite doing so in file explorer

[fair gull]

you have to hide it in arc

by clicking the 3 dots and say hide from arc

oh on the topic of download... sad arc on windows doesnt have the archive icon bottom left where downloads are on macos... and starting a download forces ALL arc windows to the front

[steep creek]

yea i miss archive button after using the macos version

[fair gull]

also context menu still isnt populated with options for me

like new window

a very complex option

and a new bug i just noticed... closing a multi window process and restarting it sometimes only opens 1 window at a random location of the previous ones

[steep creek]

yea and stuff is just a bit messy, like to change the downloads directory you have to go to arc chrome settings cant remember the link, should just be in the browser settings

[steep creek]

aha i have not gotten that yet

[fair gull]

its arc://settings

[steep creek]

yep that was it

one small thing is when i enter fullscreen on a youtube video, the cursor does not disappear

[fair gull]

ah great i just figured out that the shortcuts work if you set them to global instead of in chromium

cant see this going wrong at all

[steep creek]

lol should have just kept it in beta for now

[fair gull]

idk why they released it at this point in time

[steep creek]

same

[astral haven]

im gonna try it out, how bad could it really be?

[fair gull]

it works

its just that its unpolished af

[astral haven]

uh
how do you not make an account?

[steep creek]

you cant

[fair gull]

needs an arc account

[astral haven]

fantastic

[fair gull]

also dont think thisll change since its the same on macos since forever

[steep creek]

yea they seem pretty fixed on that

despite the bugs i still prefer to use arc on windows tbh

[fair gull]

yeah its also my prefered browser despite having used firefox for ages

and waterfox at some point

[steep creek]

yeah i used firefox at some point, switched to brave and now arc

[fair gull]

i never made the switch to another chromium browser

mainly cause chrome never worked on my pc

[astral haven]

except arc

[fair gull]

first tab didnt load until i opened a second tab

[fair gull]

ye but mainly cause arc on macos was a blast over safari and FF

[steep creek]

i just did because of oryx configurator, requires chromium, and had some weird hiccups with firefox at times

yea on macos its my favorite, stopped using safari because of arc

[fair gull]

also love the default sidebar tabs and how pinning and folders work

no fiddling with settings or such to get it to work this way

[steep creek]

yeah thats really nice

[fair gull]

but its also why i hate arc on win cause the url bar at the top is space wasted imo

[astral haven]

how does it work with multimonitor?

[steep creek]

i think they will fix / change it at some point for windows

[fair gull]

sure hope so

[steep creek]

uh i tried it using sidecar with my ipad worked great, but dont have a secondary monitor unfortunately

[fair gull]

also only got my 32:9

[astral haven]

i mean How
does it have a single sidebar for both monitors?

[fair gull]

no

each window has a sidebar

and windows can have the same space or different spaces open

basically allows stuff like this

ofc the tabs sync between the windows if i open a new one in one of them

since its the same space

(those videos played separately)

i think the main feature i like the most is the auto PIP mode for videos so i can watch while browsing other tabs

[astral haven]

I wish i could try it without an account

[fair gull]

i mean

just us ea 10min mail to make the account

nothing is stored in it unless you activate the sync

[steep creek]

yea was about to say use a throwaway or something

[astral haven]

I more meant convenience wise

[fair gull]

oh yeah but like i said dont think itll vanish any time soon

they use it for arc sync and easel (i dont think easel is available on arc on windows). other than that its for bug report feedback and informing about updates etc

[astral haven]

id happily have signed in with google SSO if they had it, but i just dont want to bother with creating an account and filling everything out

also passwords 🤢

[steep creek]

yea it would be nice if it supported sign in with google / apple or passkeys tbh

[wheat plume]

here we go again...

[wheat plume]

.-. they look identical in this font

“ ”
" "

hmm, they are different on here though

[crimson wigeon]

It is very very subtly different yes

[fair gull]

there is a difference

[wheat plume]

if we have to get a damn microscope to see the difference, thats a bad font

[analog sinew]

grandma with size 72 pt text disagrees

[fair gull]

the main issue is curled quotes are rarely used these days

[wheat plume]

LOL

[astral haven]

since they are mostly used interchangeably, its a miracle they are even different in the font to begin with

[wheat plume]

Yea, I had to copy them from your previous messages cause I have no idea how to even type them

[marsh glade]

https://tenor.com/view/enhance-super-troopers-working-typing-police-gif-16281060

[fair gull]

like curled quotes have a use in proper text writing as they denote where a quote starts and ends better than straight ones

since they curle toward the quoted text

[wheat plume]

yeah, ive seen them used as such before in books and shit

especially if the character is saying a quote, so the curly ones are used for what the character says

[fair gull]

but in programming and other normal communications these days they arent used at all

unless you use word

ms word will make em nice sub and sup curled quotes

[tulip delta]

guys, how can I get the keyboard if UPS doesn’t deliver it to me and says it’s the wrong address?

[fair gull]

idk how UPS can even tell you its the wrong address... since its the wrong address

[tulip delta]

Well, what if I'm not at home but in a hotel?

[fair gull]

that wouldnt be a wrong address though

[astral haven]

alot of word processors automatically curl the quotes towards the words regardless
“Test” (copied from word)
"Test" (typed directly)

[fair gull]

if you got an SMS or email about this from "UPS" its a scam. the only reliable source is the tracking link you got

[tulip delta]

no I have a tracking link but wait 5 seconds

[fair gull]

youll most likely have to contact UPS

if you have further issues with shipping please email us at [e-mail]

[tulip delta]

He doesn’t answer me, he just has a virtual assistant, but it’s not clear how to talk to a person

ok

Nice way to integrate heroic

[wheat plume]

Junk Store xd

I agree with that name

[gusty kiln]

Is game pass still only through the browser and streaming?

Also wondering what xbox handheld will look like

[wheat plume]

Afaik yeah

[unkempt lake]

@wheat plume it works well im moving on from heroic

This is better in every single way

[atomic hornet]

Haven't tried it, heroic works fine for me at least.
Does it also support gog and to a lesser extend amazon?

Ok checked it out, does less than I thought, but seems nice enough.

[unkempt lake]

Also unrelated but new plushies

[wheat plume]

Is only in alpha now xd

He wants to add more

[wheat plume]

O! I must give it a shot

[wheat plume]

Cute

[reef patrol]

It's battery Pikachu!

[unkempt lake]

Plusle and minun ❤️

[steep creek]

slap a few of these in every ev, bankrupt the charging network guys

[gusty kiln]

Mi300 already passed 1 billion in sales

[ashen spindle]

wonder why its down, q2 outlook below expectations?

everything seems fine

but maybe after the call it shoots up again when mi300 outlook goes up

oh lower custom bc lower console sales

[gusty kiln]

Definitely on the second half of console life cycle

[mild river]

I live in south korea, can I use the hangul(korean language) on this keyboard? Also, should I buy ISO or the American one standard? which you'd recommend?

[analog sinew]

the language is decided by os, so yes

[fair gull]

best to get a layout that is the default in your country

[wheat plume]

https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2024/04/neofetch-system-info-tool-is-dead

Damn
Got to find something else then ;_;

[fair gull]

how about

screenfetch

alos thisll just mean it wont get updates

[crimson wigeon]

It hasn't had updates for 3 years now anyway

[fair gull]

yeah iirc it was just racking up PRs and issues

[dim kernel]

hey guys since a few days i always get a notification when i press caps lock. i tried pretty much every windows setting but noting works 😦 does anyone have a idea ? pls dm me

[crimson wigeon]

Windows shouldn't notify you when you hit caps lock, so you probably installed some bloatware

[dim kernel]

how could i find out what it is ? i didnt change anything on my pc it just came overnight

[reef patrol]

Might be a setting in the acessibility* subportion? Like with sticky keys?

[dim kernel]

already tried that

[cold talon]

Hey, question:
I see wootility supports some XF86 keys (https://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/XF86_keyboard_symbols), but not all of them. Also, for some reason the audio symbol maps to XF86Tools...
Can i use more than those XF86 keys listed in wootility with my keyboard?

((and how would i apply those keybinds to my keyboard if i don't have the selection and not a different keyboard around with those missing xf86 keys on it?))

[analog sinew]

script to intercept the hid code maybe?

[cold talon]

hmmm... more reasonable would be a script to emulate the hid code

[fair gull]

we dont map xf86 keys its plain hid scancodes

[cold talon]

can i specify a hid code to be mapped that isn't included in the "special characters" section then?

[fair gull]

no

use f13 to f24 if you wanna map extra functions via macros or such

[cold talon]

you really think thats enough keys?

hold on i have an idea...

ok yeah no i actually tried with a different keyboard. If i send the hid code it doesn't know about to "press any key to bind" it just ignores that hid code instead of binding it... i guess it isn't just any key to bind that i can press, only supported keys can be bound.... ugh

[reef patrol]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIFE7h3m40U
Obligatory

[cold talon]

i mean i suppose i could layer the fn13-24 with alt/ctrl/shift to get 6*12 extra keys.... But i only have 40 slots for combination sends...

i just want to bind hid code 237 (bluetooth key) to my keyboard and i can't.... sad

yes i know this is stupid but i still wish i could XD

[fair gull]

237 (0xed) is media volume up

[cold talon]

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/include/uapi/linux/input-event-codes.h
linux kernel says its bluetooth and wev says the same

[fair gull]

these are hid scancodes https://gist.github.com/MightyPork/6da26e382a7ad91b5496ee55fdc73db2

[cold talon]

115 is volume up

ah true, hid events aren't linux input events... huh so i guess i need to emulate a layer lower....

[fair gull]

pretty sure USB doesnt even define an HID scan code for bluetooth

unless its some custom usage page

[crimson wigeon]

Yeah it appears to be for laptops that have fancy fn keys

[cold talon]

Different question: Is keypad clear something that i can bind?

[fair gull]

yeah in those cases the driver usually does a translation

[fair gull]

no mainly cause keypad isnt numpad

[cold talon]

well yes but it does have valid hid codes

[fair gull]

correct but we dont implement them

pretty sure it would require another usage page and show up as yet another keyboard

[cold talon]

oh, at that point: why does consumer control show up twice, is that needed for the different layers or what is going on here?

[fair gull]

different consumer control pages

[halcyon moss]

https://aloha-2.github.io/

[cold talon]

interesting how it registers multiple times for various functions. It makes sense but i didn't know USB supports that over the same device ID for effectively multiple inputs

[fair gull]

i mean thats sort of the magic of USB

also a downside

some people have so many usb devices that our keyboard pretenting to be multiple is too many

so 1 or more of their other USB devices dont work

until the unplug the keyboard

[cold talon]

i'd have expected multiple device IDs kinda like pci iommu stuff works: controller:device:component

(which itself is a pain if you do gpu passthrough)

hahaha

who the fuck pitched that anyway

and made it

and bought it

[crimson wigeon]

Gotta look cool man

[balmy vector]

Gamer puke alll the way

[severe phoenix]

RGB teeth next

[marsh glade]

Don't tell Cities Skylines

[cold talon]

Anything more than 8-bit color is unnecessary anyways, full 24-bit rgb gadgets don't represent the peak era of gaming when we didn't yet have microtransactions

[charred nexus]

Does discord void session tokens/cookies after you reset your password💀

[supple nest]

Probably not, discord security is a joke

[charred nexus]

I mean there's a lot of service that doesn't do that

[supple nest]

Most of those aren't trying their hardest to have you store CC information on them.

Fair tho

[charred nexus]

Fair enough

But I agree that discord is a security nightmare for a service that have your cc details stored

[fair gull]

it does though

resetting the password automatically invalidates all previously valid tokens

also unsure how user tokens mean discord security is a joke

basically the same exploit worked (maybe still does) for steam

the only security flaw with login tokens sits infront of the computer

[marsh pewter]

these days most scam servers that steal your account use a fake verification bot that shows a login qr code

you have to be pretty dense to scan a login qr code

[marsh glade]

We ban 1-5 accounts per day of people who have fallen for precisely that

[marsh pewter]

yk, im not surprised judging by how this is discord users we're talking about

[crimson wigeon]

It's funny too because those verification bots are for the horny kind of guilds. So they self report themselves as being horny

[marsh glade]

At least now we automod those posts so nobody sees them other than mods

[pale sigil]

Sadly but just horny servers

I love the Dystopia we live in/are headed towards.

And people are too busy fighting over gendered bathrooms instead of anything that matters

[frozen ingot]

that's the point

corpos fuelling these flamewars on both sides so the peasants fight amongst themselves instead of turning on them

[sweet cairn]

I hate how effective it is

[frozen ingot]

its your neighbor thats ruining your life, not the corpobro in his mansion across the world bleeding you dry

[sweet cairn]

People fighting over random shit when companies and politicians are fucking us and selling us out
