5080 Prime is 304 x 126 x 50 mm which is a bit thick and could be a problem, length could also not fit into every single tiny case, but that does sound SFF ready

Tera which is a bit long but pretty small supports max 322mm, 145mm height and 62mm width (but removes a fuck ton of space from CPU fan side)

5080 Prime would not fit in a max CPU fan configuration of Tera so you'd need to adjust it a bit, 33mm width clearance for max fan config so, that 5080 is a bit too thick for max fan Tera, gotta look for a smaller CPU fan

[distant tapir]

I don't have a Terra, but yeah I checked and it wouldn't fit in mine. I can't have a gpu taller than 48 mm

Or thicker I mean

[analog sinew]

thicc

[cursive summit]

Try getting an FE model?

[analog sinew]

try getting a n Fe model

[cursive summit]

5080FE seems to be 304 mm x 137 mm x 48 mm

Which is pretty damn perfect for SFF, a bit high but great length and width

[distant tapir]

I am. But they haven't started selling in my country yet

Nvidia is so slow 😢

[cursive summit]

In more than one way

Go AMDGPU

[wheat plume]

ytmusic () {
    mpv --no-audio-display $(yt-dlp --get-url --extract-audio "ytsearch:$*")
}

just add this to your shell config
and boom, you got searchable yt music in your terminal 💜

sadly the song name doesnt show up... but it plays the first result it finds for your search query

[fair gull]

which will 100% guaranteed always be what you want it to be

also not yt music

but youtube videos audio

[chrome prawn]

MPV enjoyer! BASED 🔥

[wheat plume]

MPV is freaking GOATed

[chrome prawn]

Indeed

[wheat plume]

yeah thats the main issue 😅

but 90% of the time it will be the right result

how do I make it show the song name in the output???

[chrome prawn]

Do you use yt-dlp with MPV?

[wheat plume]

cause this is nonsense

I want the song title and artist

[fair gull]

wouldnt u just name the output of yt-dlp

oh no you only pass the url

[wheat plume]

huh?

I dont pass any URL

[fair gull]

smh

[wheat plume]

well, tehcnically the command does pass the URL to mpv

[fair gull]

no shit

also pretty sure mpv has a --title option

so --title="whatever" should name the window

[wheat plume]

yeh but idk how to make that dynamic

oh wait, I could do $1 to use the search query maybe

[fair gull]

yes

if it needs to be more complex youll have to store more info than just the url and do a lot more work most likely

youd prob pipe yt-dlp into smth like jq and then process it

[chrome prawn]

I can confirm this is a thing, https://mpv.io/manual/master/

mpv "filename with spaces.mkv" --title="window title"

[fair gull]

or apparently using ytdl-raw-options

[chrome prawn]

dlp*?

[fair gull]

as mpv can automatically do ytdl it seems

[fair gull]

cant find docs mentioning such a flag in mpv only --ytdl-raw-options

[chrome prawn]

oh I meant "ytdlp?", maybe its ytdl in the flags

[wheat plume]

GNOME's new Text Editor is garbage :/ no syntax highlighting .-. the app its meant to replace had that by default

what a stupid regression

[fair gull]

mpv --no-audio-display --ytdl-raw-options=extract-audio= 'ytdl://ytsearch:$*'

[wheat plume]

also WTF is Firefox External??? it came preinstalled with Fedora Rawhide

[fair gull]

fixed the command

[wheat plume]

so confused

[wheat plume]

oo imma try it

[fair gull]

works fine

even pulls the art

[wheat plume]

oo having the art would be nice

oh, it opens the video

[fair gull]

well its art if you hit the yt music one from the topic channel

again this isnt a yt music search

[wheat plume]

good point

it plays the same URL no matter what I search

[fair gull]

mpv --no-audio-display --ytdl-raw-options=extract-audio= 'ytdl://https://music.youtube.com/search?q=$*' apparently should also just work

it does seem to have picked just the first song it found

not the top result, video or album

[thick elk]

Guy said he done measurements, personally my instinct would be to blame the riser cable, the one there does not look great at all.

[wheat plume]

this just plays the same song no matter what I search also, but a different song to the last command .....

[fair gull]

what

works more than fine for me invoking it with different searches

also might need to fix the $0

to include all args

[wheat plume]

this is not inferno by kard

[fair gull]

ah maybe cause

it didnt parse $0

but literally put it in

[wheat plume]

maybe...

im using zsh instead of bash, if that might cause issues

[fair gull]

same

[wheat plume]

though zsh is meant to be POSIX compliant

[fair gull]

but i also dont put them into a bash script

i just ran them from the cli

[leaden kiln]

I believe that's only in a specific mode, I think it isn't by default

[wheat plume]

[fair gull]

mpv --no-audio-display --ytdl-raw-options=extract-audio= "ytdl://https://music.youtube.com/search?q=$*"

is prob more what youd want

[wheat plume]

LOL yeah ok that works but only takes the first word of the search query

[fair gull]

did you leave it as $0

[wheat plume]

no

ytmusic () {
    mpv --no-audio-display --ytdl-raw-options=extract-audio= "ytdl://https://music.youtube.com/search?q=$*"
}

[fair gull]

might need to change IFS to be + and not sapces

[wheat plume]

huh?

[fair gull]

ytmusic () {
    OLD_IFS=$IFS
    IFS="+"
    SEARCH_QUERY="$*"
    IFS=$OLD_IFS
    mpv --no-audio-display --ytdl-raw-options=extract-audio= "ytdl://https://music.youtube.com/search?q=$SEARCH_QUERY"
}

changes the concatenation of $* from spaces to whatever

also just realised we need + for yt search

[digital cliff]

my honest reaction to that information

[analog sinew]

feesh

[fair gull]

apparently doing inferno in my ass plays 50 cents disco inferno

and it is the actual first result

why

[wheat plume]

I searched for "Dumb Litty Kard" and it played "Red Moon" by Kard instead

dafuq is going on xd

[fair gull]

the fact its from the same album

[wheat plume]

ah

[fair gull]

are you now just not even reading the window title

[wheat plume]

oh now it did it

[fair gull]

as my job of education is done i shall wipe my zshrc clean of this filth

[wheat plume]

:')

[raw zephyr]

its neat, but i will never use it 😅

[wheat plume]

ok missing album art might be an mpris issues and not MPV

[fair gull]

exactly

[wheat plume]

cause the command itself shows the album art in a window when I run the command

[fair gull]

opens ytmusic website

[fair gull]

well "video"

the way topic channels and albums/singles work is the cover is the "video"

a single frame over the song length

[wheat plume]

[fair gull]

that way they work in ytmusic and normal youtube

[wheat plume]

right.... guess it makes sense

then how come GNOME can show the album art for YT Music when im playing it from the browser?

[raw zephyr]

magic

[fair gull]

cause the browser can fetch the frame and present it? its controllable via js

[wheat plume]

The function works without the IFS part

ytmusic () {
    SEARCH_QUERY="$*"
    mpv --no-audio-display --no-video --ytdl-raw-options=extract-audio= "ytdl://https://music.youtube.com/search?q=$SEARCH_QUERY"
}

[fair gull]

you could prob do the same but then you need to break out of just mpv handling everything

[wheat plume]

True

ooo if you used TWMs you could possibly integrate this into your command launcher like dmenu or rofi

Official Firefox fursuit?!??

[distant tapir]

My replacement PC parts are here! Time to get building

[rough patrol]

FANcy

[distant tapir]

If only the CPU cooler were black then everything would be black. Oh well

[reef patrol]

Oh god. I remember those 😄

[marsh glade]

I recommend against using redbull in your water cooling loop

[rough patrol]

I recommend it

It helps the metal corrode which causes the metal to leech into the liquid

Leading to higher thermal conductivity

[bold coyote]

i recommend milk tea with bobas

[marsh glade]

Does that result in a satisfying floop floop sound as the bobas go through the piping?

[reef patrol]

That looks... genuinely dangerous to run.

[rough patrol]

That one probably has filters on either end of the reservoir

So that the boba dont go into the loop

[reef patrol]

One would hope so. But even then the material is going to leak into the coolant over time.

[marsh glade]

Best case scenario, it's a double reservoir where the outer layer is boba but static, and the inner section is the actual coolant.

[analog sinew]

the milky fluids are all ass too

finclogger 3000

[rough patrol]

Yeah the best fluids are actually the ones with glitter

Where you can see the flow

[vagrant pagoda]

And they sand down your blocks!

[distant tapir]

Now that my huge AIO is out I can finally do some real cable management

Any tips for what you'd do here? I haven't started yet

[vagrant pagoda]

The 9 is the only chromax low pro they make still?

[distant tapir]

Idk what that means. Low pro?

[vagrant pagoda]

Gonna get hate, but I love using black bread ties XD

Low profile. You have a l12s

Last I checked the only low profile that noctua made in chromax is the l9

[distant tapir]

Oh yeah

Even if they make a Chromax of this one I'm not gonna replace it since the case is closed

[vagrant pagoda]

I have the opposite, a P1

It's like half of the size of that entire case XD

[distant tapir]

Look at how unecessarily long (for my use) the extension cable is!!

[analog sinew]

in my xl case they are useful.:P

[distant tapir]

I forgot to buy a splitter... I hate myself

[vagrant pagoda]

I haven't needed an extension in a long time

[distant tapir]

I had a case once where they weren't long enough. That sucked

[vagrant pagoda]

Cases are better laid out and fans come with longer cables

[analog sinew]

doesnt every noctua fan come with y splitter

mine all did

i have too many

[vagrant pagoda]

No?

[distant tapir]

There are none here no

[vagrant pagoda]

Dual fan coolers do

[analog sinew]

my a12 and a14 also had em

but ig single fan coolers dont then

[distant tapir]

It looks so nice

[vagrant pagoda]

They make the best stuff

But it's wild how none of it matters when you can get 99% of the performance for 10% the price

[analog sinew]

shit brown fans my beloved

[vagrant pagoda]

Wish they made a fan that fit in the torrent

But the fractal thiccc bois do be good at spinning

[distant tapir]

Serious question

[vagrant pagoda]

Not so serious answer.

[distant tapir]

Why don't cases make these cables with curved connectors or something? They are so incredibly stiff and stick out so far

[vagrant pagoda]

Some do, but also you would need left and right angle ones

[distant tapir]

That's true..

[vagrant pagoda]

Needs a Halon fire extinguisher

[reef patrol]

Heh... yeah

[bronze vessel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhtVic3Vm0Y

mmmhhhh

so no 5070ti. no 5080

what do we buy lol 😛

[sudden imp]

Nothing

Buy second hand probably

[vagrant pagoda]

I mean 80 for MSRP is fine, just wait for the rush to pass over

[sudden imp]

That aswell

My gtx 1660ti will be in my pc till it dies or stops running my games

Then I’ll probably have to build a new one

[wheat plume]

I made an alias for mkdir that automatically moves you into the folder you just created

[halcyon moss]

Yeah that's not gonna cause issues lol

[cursive summit]

[unkempt lake]

Good lick finding anything

[unkempt lake]

That thing already struggles with a lot of games

Or well can't run them

For new games i mean

New doom for example

New ff

Indiana jones

[spiral island]

Aliases aren't inherited

[wheat plume]

oh, scripts wont use them?

[spiral island]

Subshells won't, no

[wheat plume]

ah okkk

[spiral island]

I often get annoyed by this when I run a command that uses a shortcut alias (namely k=kubectl) and try to use a watch on it. Can't, gotta expand those out 😢

[halcyon moss]

No, indeed. But copy pastas do

[spiral island]

Nothing is safe from copy pasta

[sudden imp]

I know 😭 atleast I play more indie games and some “esport titles” that play at higher frames

[unkempt lake]

nvidia be like

have a 4080 -

For the same price as a 4080 super

what a deal!

[rough osprey]

wouldnt be that bad at msrp

[analog sinew]

isnt the msrp pretty high

[unkempt lake]

750usd

But in reality its 900-1000usd

[umbral heron]

MSRP is how much Nvidia is getting from sale

[unkempt lake]

spring is not coming

[cursive summit]

Yeah another shit generation

9070XT for the love of god do not be 699

599 PLEASE

[unkempt lake]

I'm calling it 750usd

700-750

[umbral heron]

AMD, please do funny and release 9080 with 32G and rendering power like 4090

[unkempt lake]

700 usd would match the leaks

[cursive summit]

They did say it's not happening

[cursive summit]

Yes and fuck the leaks, 599 max

[unkempt lake]

I agree but its not happenning

AmDisapointed

[cursive summit]

Advanced Marketing Disaster

[analog sinew]

i doubt amd will save us

[unkempt lake]

then they wonder why they can't gain market share

[analog sinew]

Atp we have to pray for intel xD

[unkempt lake]

ITZ CUZ OF THE NVIDIA MINDSHARE GUYZ

[umbral heron]

I know, but they could
They won't for 9070 because 256-bit, so 16G max, but I wan 9080

[unkempt lake]

THE MINDSHAREEEEE

[analog sinew]

amd gpu division is weird. they just try to up nvidia nvidia instead of doing their own thing

thats what made their cpus good

[unkempt lake]

They can make some good products... when they're lower than msrp

Like legit all of their cards release too damn expensive

Get meh reviews

Then drop down in price snd become good value hut no one looks st then anynore

[umbral heron]

Radeon aka GeForce-$50

[steady sail]

4080 Super Super Super when for 1500$ ?

[unkempt lake]

radeon aka shitty launches with no momentum and unless you keeo an eye on them you never botice the deals

[umbral heron]

You mean 5080?

[unkempt lake]

5070 ti super!

[umbral heron]

That's not even 4080

[unkempt lake]

Fine then 5080 12gb when

[steady sail]

no i want the 5070 Ti Super Super Super

i want my 5060 8gb

[unkempt lake]

6700xt forever

[umbral heron]

[steady sail]

if thats my future im just gonna buy a ps5 pro

FUCK PC gaming

[umbral heron]

Meh, 6700XT can handle all games in medium-high 1440p just fine

[unkempt lake]

W fsr

But fsr ain't THAT bad

[umbral heron]

Wouldn't know, I'm not using it

[steady sail]

i mean im suprised that i can play Atomic Heart in 1440p with High settings

[unkempt lake]

Its old

Lol

[steady sail]

old

[analog sinew]

the only thing keeping pc gaming worthwhile are indies and steam sales

[unkempt lake]

Hot take

[analog sinew]

Hot Tak

[unkempt lake]

Steam sales haven't been good since like 2015

[analog sinew]

better than console game prices

[umbral heron]

We don't talk about old, Nvidia does all their showcases on 5-year old game

[steady sail]

i still find gold stuff in steam sale

[unkempt lake]

consoles have sales too and you can buy used right after launch

Like that time i bought god og war for 20$ the day after launch from a drunk

Guy was drunk at like 8am

And saying the game was too hard

I think he was just too drunk

Always buy your used games from drunk people

[umbral heron]

Try to reset your keyboard, that usually helps with lots of firmware kerfuffles https://help.wooting.io/article/90-how-to-restore-reset-my-wooting-one-or-wooting-two-flaretech

[halcyon moss]

I'd honestly want an upgrade from my 5700xt.. But not at these prices and current market

[umbral heron]

Thinning soup a bit too much

[unkempt lake]

This is why you shoulda bought when you felt like it wasnt enough

Not waited

The waiting game is risky

Better just replace it when you need to

[steady sail]

im 100% sure that i would be stupid if i just buy a 6800

[unkempt lake]

What a poopy year for pc gaming

boring cpus except 9800x3d
overpriced gpus

[unkempt lake]

Coulda bought a gre,xt,xtx

Months ago

We told you how to import one

You just blamed hungary and ignored everyone

[steady sail]

u told me to import one but i never got any website

[unkempt lake]

...

im not european but europeans like @digital cliff gave you some

Other people also tried to help you

[steady sail]

i never got the websites from him either

[unkempt lake]

I literally saw them posted here

[distant tapir]

Found this in my old PC case! I am saved

[unkempt lake]

[distant tapir]

[steady sail]

nope lol

[distant tapir]

I needed a splitter otherwise I would not be able to run all my fans

[steady sail]

i mean im just not gonna care and get a 7900 gre for 660 euro

[analog sinew]

yayy

[ashen spindle]

I swear at this point I’ll see you buy a card 1 hour before rdna4 announcement

[steady sail]

im gonna do that

[unkempt lake]

I literally discord searched and saw plenty of chats giving you suggestions

Literally search hungary and its just people helping you

And you complaing about hungary lol

[leaden kiln]

the more times you say you'll buy a new gpu the cheaper they get

[fathom venture]

Zotac 5090s will be sold on msrp apparently, need to join their dc for that, zotac doesn’t provide the best pcb though

[ashen spindle]

Just for the US

[halcyon moss]

You assume I think the market has been good since corona

[unkempt lake]

My 1200cad 7900xtx 6months after launch disagrees with you

[halcyon moss]

Yeah that's way to much money

I want to spend around €550

[ashen spindle]

Man it just worked. Had the ram been 1 mm higher I'm not sure it would have worked

[fair gull]

so you wont get an answer

[cursive summit]

Eh, not much lost then

[leaden kiln]

almost like lib and c tells you a lot of the story

[unkempt lake]

It's not that bad if you keep it for a while

[steady sail]

[unkempt lake]

Kept my 2080 for like 5 years, and it still was good enough and is still used by nico to this day so

[steady sail]

but for this i need to remove my AIO or buy a new pc case

[thick ermine]

Just build a whole new pc 😂

[unkempt lake]

Thermalright cooler

[steady sail]

im not interested in a new pc till AM6

[thick ermine]

That’s what, at least ‘28?

i thought everyone in norway was super rich and drove around on their EVs and had 10 80HEs in the trunk too

[distant tapir]

I think it's great. Feels wonderful to type on. Not great for games due to high latency (20ms or something, can't remember) and if you have to mash and hold a bunch of keys quickly it feels a bit bad too. But typing on it is excellent imo

[chrome prawn]

same, I run US ansi layout

and yes same density but tells you nothing really

just saying bc u always say im late with shit and I saw that like 10 hours ago when I was on lunch break xD

[ashen spindle]

I say it when someone else already posted it here 😛

[fickle ore]

lies

[ashen spindle]

anyway doesnt matter much for the node since as you can see synopsys got it on 3nm tech to the same density

so missing way too many variables to get anything from it

[fickle ore]

were they not same density before or why is this news

[ashen spindle]

its news because its how ian started his thread about what the current ISSCC session was about

Great thread by Dr Ian Cutress. Both TSMC and Intel are running test chips at 0.021 um2 SRAM density (same as TSMC 3nm) . But can achieve 0.0175 um2 depending on the tradeoffs a designer would want. Intel didn't advertise this in the headline paper so many people such as myself thought 18A lagged in SRAM density vs N2. Not the case. Lots of cool slides posted including the frequencies achieved by N2 and 18A for SRAM

ok ok

[gentle osprey]

your late

Intel x3d incoming at 0.0175 µm2 wooshhh

[gentle osprey]

It's gonna oxidize and require 1000 watts

[distant tapir]

It's nice that this server has a dedicated Intel guy

[fickle ore]

someone has to be the sacrifice for the greater good

[ashen spindle]

oh yeah how much up are you on intel dag? I'm at 26% 😛

[fickle ore]

two fiddy

xD

[ashen spindle]

no the 200 something I had left in the trading app I used in the past and thought that could be a funny all in

[fickle ore]

Haha I was up like 10% yesterday but today its just few %

Just a small position

[fickle ore]

U will make 10x when its 1T, then you can use it to buy new intel x3d cpu

[ashen spindle]

nah it will either crash when the takeover doesnt happen or maybe get split up

[fickle ore]

Split up has Intel priced at ~38 usd/share

[fickle ore]

Did u read about this, what was the consensus any good? Quantum timeline?

[ashen spindle]

idk too stupid to understand enough lol

need to wait for someone smart to break that down

[fickle ore]

Same same lol

[marsh glade]

You crack me up

[ashen spindle]

tbf I can see it

not because I think intel would be that good again, but because I think they would do stuff like splitting fabs and making shareholder value blah blah for sales

[unkempt lake]

@fickle ore you should buy an intel ultra cpu

they need all your money

cant wait for the 90700.05XTXT Max

Was it the CPU or motherboard? (This is a test mobo to test the CPU) @unkempt lake

[unkempt lake]

I bet the mobo was bad

Cpu failure is insanely rare

[ashen spindle]

what do we count it as if the pins are fucked

because aside from the stocket mobo dying is rarer than cpu dying

[unkempt lake]

I'd have assumed he'd have checked this..

[ashen spindle]

how would you do that with the cpu in the socket still

and idk if they looked intot he old socket

[analog sinew]

my bet is on mobo too

[pale sigil]

Screwdriver trick no work

To turn it on

[reef patrol]

So mobo.

[ashen spindle]

well no this is the same cpu on a new mobo

[reef patrol]

A dead CPU won't prevent the motherboard from powering on. Just POSTing

[ashen spindle]

well I doubt its double mobo death

so more likely cpu or something else is off like the psu

[reef patrol]

Remove the CPU and see if the motherboard reacts to being turned on. If not...well it still ain't the CPU 😄

[pale sigil]

It's a brand new mobo

Also the PSU itself isn't turning on hmm.

Usually if there's an error there would still be lights and the PSU on

[reef patrol]

Could have lead with that. Dead PSU 😄

[pale sigil]

It's my psu @reef patrol

[analog sinew]

lul

[fickle ore]

but yea agree with quin

[reef patrol]

Considering how a motherboard can turn on and self-test without a CPU or RAM...duh 😄

Couldn't be the CPU preventing it from POWERING ON

[unkempt lake]

Had that happen but it was due to a bad mobo

Would not power on with a cpu installed but would without one
Socket was pristine too xD.
Ordered both a replacement mobo and cpu and it ended up being the mobo, og cpu was fine

[reef patrol]

[unkempt lake]

@pale sigil does it have power without the cpu lol

[fair gull]

the name only brings one thing to mind
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOkhEimaB9E

[pale sigil]

Ok so like

It has the mobo power and CPU wire

Just work work

Inb4 I fried my PSU somehow

[unkempt lake]

it has power that way?

[pale sigil]

No power

[unkempt lake]

Remove the cpu

[pale sigil]

My PSU won't start when I do the screwdriver

[unkempt lake]

From the socket

I know it sounds stupid

[pale sigil]

Surely it would still power

[unkempt lake]

I had this happen before

Just do it

[pale sigil]

But thermal paste

[unkempt lake]

You don'r even need a cooler on to test it

[fair gull]

depends. if it shorts the cpu power rails a psu could just refuse to power on

[unkempt lake]

It's just a post test

[pale sigil]

I'm doing it now

[unkempt lake]

good

[pale sigil]

Nothing

Am I going to have to bloody use my own case cables

[unkempt lake]

Wait

Does the psu turn on if you do the good old

Paper clip test

[fair gull]

was about to ask if we know the psu works

[pale sigil]

Paperclip?

[unkempt lake]

Yes?

[pale sigil]

The PSU worked like 15 min ago

[gentle osprey]

I know im late but ima guess mobo

[unkempt lake]

https://help.corsair.com/hc/en-us/articles/360025085372-PSU-How-to-test-a-PSU-Power-Supply-Unit

[pale sigil]

Idk the paperclip test and I don't know how anyway

[gentle osprey]

its easy

[reef patrol]

Test the Motherboard without a CPU is what I have said repeatedly now...

[pale sigil]

I don't have a paper clip

[unkempt lake]

He just did

[pale sigil]

I did

[unkempt lake]

I made him do it

[reef patrol]

...

I was responding to Tony 😛

[pale sigil]

Just going to plug it back into my computer

To check it works

[analog sinew]

atp i dont follow what works and doesnt anymore

theres a bunch of components

some might work

testing might be done

:D

[fair gull]

it would be quite funny if callums cpu just kills mobos

[analog sinew]

yea

[unkempt lake]

Or if the cpu killed his psu

[pale sigil]

PSU definitely works still

So ye very odd

I really don't want to remove the front button wires from mine

[unkempt lake]

were you using a magnetic screwdriver...

Or a real metal one

@pale sigil

[spiral island]

Is is possible you're just seeing a black screen while memory training is executing? It can take a while depending on how much RAM you've downloaded.

[pale sigil]

Alright I'm an idiot

Let's test

And the results are.....

[unkempt lake]

What did you do lol

[pale sigil]

https://tenor.com/view/excited-so-drums-gif-11982656

[wild coyote]

[pale sigil]

It was the motherboard!

[wild coyote]

Wohoo, mystery solved!

now have a cookie for yourself

[pale sigil]

My desk is a mess

[crisp granite]

looks clean and organised to me

[wild coyote]

Pretty normal ngl

[pale sigil]

Definitely

[unkempt lake]

now pour the fanta on the mobo

[pale sigil]

Probably tripping the wrong pins, however Im pretty sure I tried all of them, in the end I just use my own cases button

Which I'm going to cry about putting back in

[wild coyote]

Don't worry, we're here for you

[sharp badger]

Organized chaos

[gentle osprey]

I knew it all along

[pale sigil]

May as well boot into Linux

[pale sigil]

Ye I did too

I was extremely confident but didn't wanna risk it

[gentle osprey]

lol I’m just joking but I did assume it was mobo

[pale sigil]

I'm going to hate putting this back into my own case

There's no space for my fat fingers and I'll probably need to remove my GPU

😭

[sharp badger]

Do you have any good small needle-nose pliers?

[pale sigil]

It is not nice having a zinc 80he on my lap

[sharp badger]

It's good for the gains

[halcyon moss]

Oof, legs must have compressed

[pale sigil]

@unkempt lake proof

Well, I may as well do some cleaning inside my computer since I opened her up.

[sharp badger]

Yup good to get some dust out

[fair gull]

callum prob shorted the pwr led pins all the time

or his tool used to short the pins aint as conductive as assumed

[fringe tree]

i have this keyboard https://product.geo-online.co.jp/product/gameaccessories/accessories/grfd-gmkmk55/
and i wanted to test out the L45 and L60 keycaps from wooting but idk how i can check if theyre compatible

damn

any other brands that i can try?

[crisp granite]

yikes
that looks to only be compatible with Outemu hotswap MX switches

[crisp granite]

wooting makes some pretty great boards
they even come with those switches preinstalled

[fringe tree]

i cant afford an entire wooting keyboard thats why ive decided to maybe just change some of the keys and switches

like the keys i use for gaming

[crisp granite]

sadly, you need a PCB that can actually support HE switches, because the magic is all on the PCB
the switches are actually simpler than standard contact based switches

[crisp granite]

so yeah
you'll have to get a new keyboard for HE switches
and one from wooting if you want access to all of wooting's cool software stuff

[fringe tree]

😭

rip

[crisp granite]

meh, can save up
a wooting keyboard should theoeretically last you a lifetime if you don't abuse it

it's not like it has metal contacts to wear out

well
it does
on the USB port
but that's it

[fringe tree]

ig

ill save up to build one myself :3

[crisp granite]

getting a prebuilt wooting is even cheaper than buying all the parts a la carte

would just do that imo

[fringe tree]

WHAAAAT

oh yeah it is

[crisp granite]

I mean
you could probably build a more "boutique" board using aftermarket parts
but at minimum you'll need the PCB from wooting

[crisp granite]

less packaging, less products to stock
a higher volume product as well

a lot more people are buying complete keyboards than parts lol

but they won't have any of the nice wooting special sauce

nor do you get emails from Anders :c

[fringe tree]

i just wanna be able to set the actuation point to like 0.4 mm

[crisp granite]

no shortage of HE boards that can do that

[fringe tree]

is this a good HE keyboard?
https://www.monsgeek.com/product/mg75s-he-fully-assembled-magnetic-switch-keyboard/

[fringe tree]

i still wouldnt like to get a keyboard that costs more than my CPU

[cedar fog]

that eye joker website has a lot of keyboard reviews for HE

with prices included

[fringe tree]

.....

half decent for half price? sounds good to me lol

[fair gull]

i really dont get how passing a cpu buffer to opengl es2 works

im pretty sure im doing it right

[ashen spindle]

@old marlin Pulsar Gaming Gears x2h medium, decent mouse to get? need a new one and that seems to fit my hand size well

[old marlin]

if you want that I'd just get an XM2we

or xm2w ig

[leaden kiln]

I want the x2f to come now

[ashen spindle]

which one is less likely to have mouse wheel problems lol

[leaden kiln]

you can't anymore

they closed after 4.5k applications

[ashen spindle]

finalmouse wheel is broken, roccat burst pro wheel is sometimes broken and does double clicks, I just want something thats solid for once lol

[leaden kiln]

*I was quick tho I got the form in
hard to get though since so many applied

[old marlin]

x2firmware issues

seems like a great mouse

[old marlin]

x2h has an open encoder which ain't great

they have basically the same pcb in an xm2

[ashen spindle]

oh I didnt even notice it was a wireless one lol, thats not a need

[old marlin]

I mean I personally really like wireless mice so I would still recommend going for it

otherwise, the XM2 8k is a very solid wired option, even if you don't care about 8k

1khz decent wired mice are becoming rare

wired is mostly reserved for budget stuff nowadays

[ashen spindle]

yeah wireless would be nice just not a need, I really just want something where I dont need to expect having a broken wheel again after using it and getting used to it lol

[old marlin]

oh also

if you buy puslar via maxgaming here

you can prepare for dogshit support

[ashen spindle]

oh nah it would've been on amazon lol

[old marlin]

endgamegear might be part of caseking but that still beats that combo handily

• I know the people there are nice

they design their stuff to be serviced

[ashen spindle]

whats the difference between w and we

[old marlin]

we is the economy version

with boilerplate firmware etc

the w is the fancier one

[cedar fog]

they have a op1 4k wireless now

same case but wireless

$120

[old marlin]

only matters if you care about 4k

if you don't just get the w

[cedar fog]

I think it also has the newer sensor tbf

true but didn't some of the older ones have less configurability

I really wouldn't know tho

[wheat plume]

why TF does Google think its ok to give 125GB storage on a phone that costs $1200????

[crimson wigeon]

Cloud

[ashen spindle]

well time to try it and then complain later if the scrollwheel broke again

[wheat plume]

xd

[cedar fog]

tbh I've never used that much storage

even my old 32gb phone never got fully used

[wheat plume]

my phone uses 98 currently and my tabllet is using 118GB ...which is too close to the limit

[cedar fog]

real

[wheat plume]

got the usb for that /S

[lyric hatch]

Got 512GB on my new phone I don't think I'll be filling it up very quickly

[wheat plume]

my last phone was 64GB but my current is 128....but since I dont have games, im not using it all

[cedar fog]

just download a few gacha games

[lyric hatch]

My last phone was 256

[wheat plume]

still stupid for an expensive AF phone without SD card slot

[cedar fog]

that's the trade off for getting all the cool features

like umm where the google ai listens to you constantly

praise your phone overlord

I just realized

why is WeChat 1.7gb

wtf is going on in that app

bro how much data are they collecting

Ive used the app once

1gb of userdata

[wheat plume]

and all the attachements that people send in chats gets stored too

[lyric hatch]

Yeah 128 is still kind of crazy for a flagship

[cedar fog]

I agree it is a bit low compared to other flagships

I still doubt I'd ever use that storage tho

[lyric hatch]

Even apple isn't doing that anymore

[cedar fog]

wait tho is it the pixel 9

don't they give you storage options

also pixel is kinda on the more budget side now no?

[wheat plume]

Pixel is not at all budget, even the A Series is pricey AF now

the 8A is 750 Euro The 6A when that came out was 450 Euro...they keep going up by a lot each year

[cedar fog]

ah

I've always gotten them while on sale

but idk what kind of sales y'all get in the EU

[wheat plume]

Wonder what the 9A will cost 👀

[magic minnow]

I’m looking forward to that one plus 13 mini

[gentle osprey]

same with gpx 2

[wheat plume]

Crazy that a 6.3 inch display is "mini" now

[cedar fog]

I love small phones

[wheat plume]

same <3

[cedar fog]

none of these 6'7 inch phones

like get that tablet away from me

[magic minnow]

It’s the closest we’re getting, I do hope the rumors are true about the 6000 battery and snapdragon elite processor

[wheat plume]

ooo hopefully

small phones usually suck for battery

[cedar fog]

are pixels more expensive in the EU

[lyric hatch]

Everything is more expensive in the EU

[wheat plume]

^

And we dont get the same deals either

[distant tapir]

I miss the iPhone 12 mini size! It was perfect!

[cedar fog]

I was gonna say pixel 9 is like $650 here

[wheat plume]

ive seen at most a 10% sale price cut on Google Store

[cedar fog]

for 128gb

[wheat plume]

gosh I wish

919 here

[cedar fog]

lmao dude Google will give them away for swapping to Google Fi

T-Mobile and Xfinity give them away all the time too

[wheat plume]

Google Fi is US only AFAIK

[lyric hatch]

Unfortunately it made up like 3% of overall iPhone sales so it got scrapped

[cedar fog]

I got my pixel 8 from Xfinity for free (1 year contract)

[distant tapir]

Yeah, sad

I kinda want to buy a Mini if I can find one

[fair gull]

nvm figured it out. was accidentally binding a buffer earlier on that wasnt supposed to get bound.

[cedar fog]

wow you're a full fledged graphics API programmer

now write your own game engine

maybe like lead developer

[gentle osprey]

Chief of Design

[fair gull]

welp enough for today. i implemented all the code branching i wanted to do use gpu buffers on api9+ and cpu buffers for api8 (god knows why android didnt include the vbo pointer functions in api8)

[rough patrol]

just open source it and if someone wants to nitpick your code just tell them to fix it themselves

[fair gull]

it is open source already

highly doubt theres tons of android opengl devs around though

a security vuln in a livewallpaper?

it doesnt even have user input

[magic minnow]

Around 600$ I think

But!

Only 1,000

[cedar fog]

idk

I could get the same watch off temu for free

[magic minnow]

Wait idk

If it’s limited numbers

Personally I wish they would have gone for a rose gold on the watch instead of just silver

but I just found the most cursed thing I've ever seen

why not a moumouwatch

5600mAh battery :D

thats larger than most non-folding phones

[magic minnow]

Sucks that the Open 2 got pushed to next year

[wheat plume]

oh?

[magic minnow]

Or cancelled straight up I think idk

[magic minnow]

After 7 years I’ve left Verizon now I can save 800$ a year

[balmy vector]

They dont even taste good, worst gen

[thick ermine]

I’ve got 3 pc’s I’m building, so the 5090FE is best price to performance.

Compared to a $3k usd astral or something like that

[marsh glade]

I disagree, but that's because I like burnt food

[magic minnow]

Nice

[balmy vector]

Burnt food is fine if its burnt with purpose

[wheat plume]

Wonder why the folder select color and the message banners do not use the system accent color....

cause my accent color is green but the banner and icon select color is still grey

[balmy vector]

Because trash is trash

[wheat plume]

why grey here though?!

[reef patrol]

I dunno... maybe go ask the devs instead of us?

[balmy vector]

Tell the computer its not color matching

[crimson wigeon]

Because I already know I'm trash, I don't want to be reminded of myself when looking at trash

[wheat plume]

its just bizarre to add the option to change accent color when mosts places an accent color is used is hardcoded to be grey

[umbral heron]

GNOME and consistency

AMD pls, reasonable MSRP

[marsh glade]

Good thing I just bought a CPU

[digital cliff]

you got it, 950€

[vagrant pagoda]

I mean can you even get a 9800x3d at MSRP reliably?

[steady sail]

what is MSRP ? it something AI stuff or what ?

its controlled by NVIDIA or what

[crimson wigeon]

Yes it is AI

[umbral heron]

98x3d is way more popular than 99x3ds because gamers
Same thing was when 78x3d pretty much out of stock everywhere whereas 7950x3d was easily available

[vagrant pagoda]

Well mainly because the early x3d dual ccd scheduling issues soured people on it.

And luckily amd has given the 800x3d part a huge clock cut compared to 9x0x3d

[gusty kiln]

If you live near a microcenter

[umbral heron]

Bet you that most of people who bought it don't even know what either CCD or scheduling is, they just buy whatever random youtubers tell them to

[fickle ore]

Do u get more fps if u google what CCD or scheduling is?

[vagrant pagoda]

You could for a while XD

[ashen spindle]

Yeah there is massive stock of it

Mindfactory alone is close to 20k sales and it’s still in stock

[vagrant pagoda]

Where

[gusty kiln]

Hopefully not overstocked

[vagrant pagoda]

Newegg is 100 over msrp

Amazon is oos

[ashen spindle]

We have like 5 different retailers at msrp and then more at slightly higher ones

[vagrant pagoda]

Not like that in the US

[ashen spindle]

If the US is oos I assume it’s a lag if LNY shipments that are about to come through

real

let's stop using the word burnt

let's use the word cooked perfectly

all you raw food eaters

i didnt say burned i said browned

How does he consume beef then?

i'll move this to #🍲│food heh

lmao i recommended a game to someone, and they asked what the mini requirements were, so i goto the site and look for them

“I played catadda 0.B on Lego EV3 brick through ssh about a year ago. Every simple move took a noticeable fraction of a second (like 0.3-0.5 second), crafting and such was very slow as well. The specs were - 300 MhZ CPU, 64 Mb Ram (+ another 64 Mb swap on microsd flash) running ev3dev (stripped ubuntu basically), ssh over USB CDC connection.”

[vagrant pagoda]

4000 ada sff is a ~4070 with only 70w

[gusty kiln]

The 8060S is about a 3060?

[vagrant pagoda]

4070 is 3 times the power for 30% faster fps XD

if they made a 10gb and called it 4070 mini it would be amazing

much better than the 4060/4060ti

but nvidia keeps all the gaming card cloked to the moon with cut down dies

instead of fat dies clocked low

ada is very effiecent at low clocks as we see in the 4000

[gusty kiln]

Gotta leave wafer space for the ai gpus

[vagrant pagoda]

just wild it can beat a 4060 everywhere for less power even

[gusty kiln]

Crazy how much nvidia decided to cut down the rest of the 50 series

[wheat plume]

why TF is Firefox RDD Process using 58% of my CPU usage???!!!!

everytime i launch firefox

[vagrant pagoda]

just firefox things

[wheat plume]

its down to 32% now wtf

[vagrant pagoda]

wild is if you give the 4000 110w it go tow to toe with a 4070 and a 3080

[cedar fog]

it's like an isolated sandbox they boot up

for security

[vagrant pagoda]

but youre pulling 110w from the slot

so make sure its a good mobo

[cedar fog]

is it like staying at 32%

[wheat plume]

interesting but its never impacted my performance before, its using nearly 4GB RAM and up to 63% CPU Usage anytime I open Firefox now

[vagrant pagoda]

check your addons

[gusty kiln]

Speaking of motherboard, crazy how overbuilt they are these days

Like some of them can power two 14900k if you could

[cedar fog]

could be crypto mining?

you could also disable it I think

[wheat plume]

I only have trusted addons

[cedar fog]

do you have YouTube or something running

[wheat plume]

nope

I use WebApp Manager to make an isolated instance of Youtube that is seperated from the main Firefox window

[vagrant pagoda]

what dose firefoxes taskmanage say

[wheat plume]

but the high RAM and CPU usage happens without youtube being open

and it doesnt use such RAM and CPU when only having the youtube window open

[vagrant pagoda]

you ahve some media running somewhere

[wheat plume]

yeh, mpv

but thats not related to firefox

[vagrant pagoda]

no you have firefox playing media somewhere

thats what rdd dose

check firefoxes taskmanage

[ashen spindle]

Don’t try to diagnose an issue based on task manager values unless you have an actual issue

[vagrant pagoda]

see

you ahve a video playing somewhere and hardware decoing is failing

so its doing cpu decoding

[cedar fog]

you could probably just disable rdd tbh

[ashen spindle]

If you don’t have lags or whatever from it no need to change something that just works

[vagrant pagoda]

the changelog page on wooting has a ton of videos playing

[wheat plume]

BRUH, I found the issue

it was the wootility changelog site..... wow
