[old marlin]

well what your mouse is touching is glass

[somber coral]

Well I can bend it

Right

[old marlin]

it is bendable

but if you roll it up you will damage the surface

also the glass beads fly out during use

so it won't last a year if you use it a lot

[somber coral]

…

[old marlin]

in case that happens you can peel the entire layer off

and you got a hien

[frozen ingot]

make it stop please

no more garbo ngreedia cards

[halcyon moss]

why are you angry

[magic minnow]

They should bring back the little paper clip from Microsoft office, but packed with Ai features!

yeah he should tell me im a failure and kms

[magic minnow]

And have him breakdance as well

[nimble arch]

Clippy in Fortnite when

[slender root]

hi

[wheat plume]

LOL trump mobile only allows iPhones

[old marlin]

what

what's trump mobile

[wheat plume]

It's his son's new company
They offer phones and network plan

[old marlin]

ah

so they offer a phone and a network plan that doesn't work on their own phone?

[wheat plume]

Apparently so

[old marlin]

imcredible

[wheat plume]

Cause it's probably Android powered

[old marlin]

probably

watch it be webos

[ashen spindle]

it doesnt work with their own phone because said phone doesnt exist yet...

[old marlin]

wdym I can buy the same phone without rebranding

[ashen spindle]

phone comes out in august so yeah it doesnt work with it yet?

[old marlin]

why would it only work with iphones anyways

[ashen spindle]

I'm sure we will have details following the short statement any second now

[wheat plume]

I assume the iPhone thing is a "for now" situation

[pseudo hound]

I cant decide what keyboard to buy

[umbral heron]

Aite, quite big news
On new Wine with NTsync fixes and all that wow64 fluff Photoshop and whole CC suite works practically out-of-the-box
You just need a small script to configure prefix and it runs with almost native speed and smoothness
Even integration with OS like drag-and-drop from file explorer works

[nimble arch]

That sounds really cool

[wheat plume]

Ooo wow!!!!

You heard of "Steer by Wire"
Now get ready for....

[old marlin]

he assumes that companies can't already gate steering modes behind subscriptions or yoink all steering inputs without alla that

[glass flint]

1.76TB data network usage for the last week… Am I cooked?

[vagrant pagoda]

only?

[glass flint]

Huh?

[balmy vector]

Could go higher

[glass flint]

769GB in Chrome

just in case

[balmy vector]

Why only 769

[glass flint]

[balmy vector]

You need at minimum 1.4tb

[halcyon moss]

769 gb in chrome is a lot though

[glass flint]

I’m just realise, i’m commonly woke up at 12PM and use my phone 12 hours per day

[analog sinew]

modern life

[glass flint]

Thanks at least that when I was little, I didn’t play on the computer but spent time outside from morning till night, only coming home to drink or eat

[balmy vector]

What is outside

[frozen ingot]

things were better in my time where there wasn't even enough to do on the computer for 12 hours straight

[plush stirrup]

on mobile data?

[glass flint]

Yep

[plush stirrup]

damn

[glass flint]

I know

I’m cooked asf

[plush stirrup]

I remember once doing 170GB in a weekend, my ISP illegally limited me for months after that, until I switched away

it was so bad I didn't even have data in the cities at all

I got the lowest (illegal) priority, a roaming SIM from the USA has 6x faster internet, with 250ms latency

[wheat plume]

Last weekend 120gb

[plush stirrup]

Well I was paying for 300GB 😢 companies here love scamming people xD

subscriptions above 300GB don't really exist, and the only reason they exist is because that's the mandatory minimum for "unlimited" they used to sell 40GB as unlimited 😄

at home we don't even have unlimited, 3TB is the minimum there

[somber coral]

Is it worth a trade for a 7800x3d and 5080 for a9070x t and a 9800x3d

[nimble arch]

I have unlimited in my contract but the fair use policy is 600GB per month. Not that I usually go over 150GB though.

No speed cap either so I can get a nice 400-500 mbps download in many parts of London.

[plush stirrup]

I have one unlimited sim, one 35GB SIM, the unlimited in reality is 300GB, after it's 0.5Mbps

[nimble arch]

Upload speeds on my cellular connection are interesting, 50 mbps is the best I've seen in a speedtest.

I wonder what the roaming is going to be like when I'm on vacation next month.

[plush stirrup]

this is the fastest I've seen on my unlimited so far

[plush stirrup]

Which country are you visiting and where are you from?

[nimble arch]

UK to visit Portugal

[plush stirrup]

I hope you enjoy the EU! 😉

But jokes aside enjoy your vacation

as for speedtest it's likely it'll select a server in portugal, but without local breakout traffic will go to UK and back, so it is better to select a server in the UK for lower latency.

[unkempt lake]

No

[astral haven]

Here's the best I've gotten up
Not quite got the down but got you beat up

My best down was awful up lol

Cellular is really all over the place

[vagrant pagoda]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDP7qenJWG4

[covert ravine]

This is driving down the highway

(I'm not the driver)

[plush stirrup]

same though I focused more on price vs speed with current subscriptions

[iron wave]

I get around 980-990 both ways.

[astral haven]

these are from different places with different cell coverage, my plan isnt that high priority, but its higher than any mvno

[iron wave]

I meant at home.

[astral haven]

yea we are talking about cellular

while gig is possible on cellular down, it pretty much isnt possible to get upload that fast

[iron wave]

Yeah it's designed that way.

70/9

[lyric hatch]

Mines capped at 40 both ways

[unkempt lake]

Yall get cell service?

https://tenor.com/view/calishibe714-doge-doge-speed-speed-dogecoin-gif-22486457

Generally its between 0 to 80

Xd

[covert ravine]

$27.50ish/month

Tello is the provider. P/sure through T-mobile(?)

[steady sail]

Its okay for a 30$ unlimited plan

[plush stirrup]

Speed on both of my subscriptions in my room

[raw zephyr]

you should setup QoS 😅 that ping when loaded is crazy

[plush stirrup]

it's mobile 🙂

so QoS is not my doing 😄

[raw zephyr]

ah

[plush stirrup]

I'll test WiFi aswell, little faster, but still sad for the price 🥲

[halcyon moss]

this is slightly more than i pay for 🙂

[plush stirrup]

here they give exactly what I pay for

and it includes overhead

[halcyon moss]

800/70

[plush stirrup]

250/20

[raw zephyr]

the fastest speeds i can get are 65/15mbps 😅

[plush stirrup]

Well, if I use too much data they put me on 10Mbps down and 1Mbps up

so don't feel too bad about those speeds!

unless they also have a data limit 🥲

[raw zephyr]

oh i meant on my wifi 😂

[plush stirrup]

yes my internet at home will get limited if I use too much data 😄

only option is 75Mbps internet, if lucky (depends on the state of the cable, if unlucky you'd need to be happy to reach 50Mbps :P)

[rough osprey]

wtf

[nimble arch]

5G at home

[plush stirrup]

this is the unlimited option, btw, which is my only alternative to what I got now

[plush stirrup]

Lucky, my town's doesn't even reach that high if I have line of sight, does have high upload though, but that is with line of sight I'm happy I got 5G at all 🥲

a year ago 10Mbps 4G was what I had to deal with when they did one of their unplanned maintenances, I feel like 3rd world countries have better internet at this point 🥲

[raw zephyr]

is 5g the only available connection? my friend had only 5g and it was barely able to reach the cell tower, he switched to starlink and has 0 complains

[plush stirrup]

oh I have coax, VDSL

vdsl is unlimited, coax is not

[raw zephyr]

even fog would cut out the internet 😅

[plush stirrup]

5G here as home internet gives you max 300GB 😛

[raw zephyr]

that's rough..

[rough osprey]

just get fiber :)

[plush stirrup]

If I'm hopeful I'm not living in this shithole anymore at that point

called poison control today, they basically said that pesticides here are safe 😄

can't do internet right, can't do health related services right 😄

Basically the entire conversation:
"if it is licensed for use here, it's unlikely to do harm"
and "it's unlikely he'd be using anything illegal on his field"
also that if I still have a headache tomorrow it's unlikely to be from pesticides

• I didn't have to look out for any other symptoms

even AI said they're downplaying it 😭

[nimble arch]

I’ve got a 1150/100 HFC (hybrid fibre coaxial) connection that I use at home anyway. The 5G speeds are a nice backup but equally that’ll vary. It’s only just 8 AM here but if I did that test again later in the day, it’ll drop much lower.

Plus that was indoors as well. The 5G speeds are generally faster, albeit not by much at times, outdoors.

[plush stirrup]

I can get 1000/40 coax, but that one drops to 20/2 after 3TB

and that costs 80eur/m

[nimble arch]

If my home broadband has a fair use policy, I’ve never reached it.

We’ve collectively pulled 5TB in a week once and they didn’t care.

[plush stirrup]

We use about 3TB/month, technically 17h of the day are actually unlimited, but those are the hours where nobody is home, midnight till 5pm. So only scheduled downloads download at that time

[umbral heron]

Wen you run speedtest from server to other server in the same company but other office which is 2km away

[plush stirrup]

And they could take that away at any time I'm sure + they've been known to just limit 600 homes to 10Mbps (instead of gigabit, for some) because they had too little capacity and applying dynamic limits or such was too costly for them... imagine saying that to someone that's paying 80eur/m for gigabit

[nimble arch]

I’m still in the FTTP waiting room

[plush stirrup]

I used to have a VPS with that speed, fancy 😄

[nimble arch]

Although the top consumer package from the FTTP provider building in my area is only 1600/120

[umbral heron]

I wanted to update at my home to 8000/2500, but 10G devices expensivo

[plush stirrup]

If in theory I ever get fiber, and this ISP still exists, I would have this option

[nimble arch]

If I get the 1600/120 package through EE, I can then get my cellular service cheaper. I’ll also get an ISP router with all 2.5 GbE WAN/LAN ports and WiFi 7 so I’d be future proofed for some of the initial FTTP improvements they’ve already got planned.

[rough osprey]

why so cheap

[plush stirrup]

Roughly the cheapest fiber prices here, especially with unlimited data, others still carry a FuP, one big ISP even has 8.5Gbps but with 6TB FuP where you have to constantly add free 600GB packs to.

[nimble arch]

Although if I lived in the right parts of London, I could get 5000/5000 for under £60 per month.

[rough osprey]

oh it doesnt scale well lol

[analog sinew]

fiber with 50 mbps xD

what is that shit

[plush stirrup]

If I live in the one street this ISP got coverage in:

[rough osprey]

i mean gotta exist too

if we getting rid of all the other connections

[analog sinew]

ig

[plush stirrup]

for small users, it's probably their cheapest option

we still got this stuff on other ISP's

50GB of data, 30Mbps down 2 up, makes the 50/10 fiber instantly look good 😉

200GB for 40Eur? 😄

[umbral heron]

If there's data cap it's a no-go

[plush stirrup]

35eur for 150GB if you have coax (there's currently a promo at another ISP for 29eur/m 150/15 with 3TB cap)

[analog sinew]

[plush stirrup]

providers here don't really care for competition, they know people either stay where they are or will come back eventually

[analog sinew]

data cap is such a pain

and hq streaming n shit eats it fast

[umbral heron]

50G is literally less than 1 day for me

[analog sinew]

or if you wanna download a few games

[plush stirrup]

I know, but no alternative to this 3TB really 😄 luckily it's 3

[rough osprey]

ye gotta need atleast 1-2tb a month

[umbral heron]

Only unlimited

[plush stirrup]

I wish

I mean I was with one ISP that provided unlimited, my experience was subpar 😄

[fair gull]

has anyone noticed youtube has a new timeline marker. a white dot to show where the in video sponsored segment ends

[umbral heron]

All ISPs here provide unlimited
They know data cap is a suicide
There are even popping out 5G unlimited mobile plans

[reef patrol]

You sure that isn't a helpful add-on? I still have to skip past the wargaming ads every other video.

WAR THUNDER!

[fair gull]

i dont have such addons so im sure

[plush stirrup]

got one abuse report, I assume from my brother's PC, just blocked the ports, a few days later they claim I got a 2nd abuse report and they used caps in their mail like "ONE MORE" I couldn't even get the IP they claimed I got an abuse report on... Also a tech of the ISP they rent from unplugged my cable and I had to use my 2nd connection at the time for 2days (still had that just in case, now I only got 1)

[rough osprey]

it sometimes shows an autoskip button too for me

[umbral heron]

do you hab YT Premium?

[analog sinew]

i have sponsorblock on revanced so that does that

[plush stirrup]

Well unlimited mobile used to be 40GB here 😛 few years ago

[rough osprey]

vid link?

[fair gull]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mfathDEfIM

dw its clickbait

[rough osprey]

not seeing it on mobile

[umbral heron]

Must be Premium thingy I think
Or A/B testing

[rough osprey]

oh wait

[fair gull]

ive never checked mobile

[reef patrol]

Probably yeah. Can't wait to never experience a positive AB test

[fair gull]

just noticed it on my mac and gaming pc

[rough osprey]

if i skip once i get this

and then it says it skipped it to the interesting part

[fair gull]

hm maybe its more a "this is where people stopped skipping"

[rough osprey]

😭

[umbral heron]

I have still 4TB of mobile data left
No wonder they want to switch to unlimited, will be just simpler to manage I guess

[rough osprey]

ye probably

[plush stirrup]

meanwhile my main sim, though the bundle just reset this seems about the average usage, I just did a speedtest earlier to show 🥲

I use the other one for data

[rough osprey]

https://youtu.be/rs5PfanIkC0?si=9FwQjIB9Mg8LWiCG

[plush stirrup]

[fair gull]

ive never seen a button

[umbral heron]

[fair gull]

just the white dot

[rough osprey]

did u skip

[nimble arch]

That's what this feature is

[fair gull]

yes

to the white dot

[nimble arch]

I've noticed it a few days back

[rough osprey]

nah just do the normal 10s skip

[fair gull]

i usually guesstimate skip distance on the timeline

[umbral heron]

What if - for people with Sponsorblock player automatically skips sponsors, so that makes this moment most played, so YT uses that data then?

[rough osprey]

double click on the right side

[rough osprey]

thats a very small data point tho

[nimble arch]

I wish I could get this 😔

[umbral heron]

My uncle has small digger, we can make FTTH at night

[nimble arch]

I don't feel like moving into the city itself just for 5000/5000 broadband

Guess I'll just have to wait it out like every other non-London resident

[umbral heron]

Uh?

[analog sinew]

maybe flash too while youre at it

[umbral heron]

https://tenor.com/view/canaan-428the-animation-428shibuya-scramble-hakko-anime-waifu-gif-16940097

okay

[nimble arch]

[steady sail]

Nice one cals

[plush stirrup]

I only checked their 5Gbps, but even if you get exactly 5Gbps it would still take 0.16sec, if you round that up, as one should, it's 0.2sec for said 100MB file at perfect 5Gbps speeds.

[vagrant pagoda]

eh when you go over gbps the server is normally the limit

i have 3gbps and could get 10

EGS is irconicly the only service i always get full speed form

steam is hit or miss

youtube is literaly the worse, i constantly get buffering

i could stream raw 1080p vikeo, and it takes seconds to load compressed ones XD

[rough osprey]

huh

thats just unlucky lol

[vagrant pagoda]

nah its just how the internet is. we have speed but have never improved resposonse times

[rough osprey]

yt has always been super fast for me 🤔

maybe premium helps idk

[vapid ruin]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-G6A0rJSeE

[reef patrol]

So glad I splurged for the regular A1. That thing is TINY 😄

[umbral heron]

Oop, A1s mini will be out of stock

[reef patrol]

[plush stirrup]

The solution is to find services that provide over gigabit speeds!

[vagrant pagoda]

Which is very low

[somber coral]

OPTIMUM UPLOADED

[vagrant pagoda]

when something isnt gig+ you dont really go somewhere else, you just wait for it to finish lol

[plush stirrup]

Depends on which services, for certain you can just switch what you're using, usenet for example, or backups

[vagrant pagoda]

multi-stream downloads arent the issue, its always single source

[plush stirrup]

I wish I had faster upload tbh

With 20Mbps, and I can only really back-up at night (data limit), I risk my services landing in a failed state if internet goes down 😄

[astral haven]

Yes but 20 and gigabit are very different stories

[plush stirrup]

One can get a faster backup server

[vagrant pagoda]

not always the option

trying to get gig+ over a single stream isnt easy

[astral haven]

Often tho you have the option for multiple streams

[plush stirrup]

Multiple streams, in the case of usenet, torrent, etc

though the backup's I'm using I have no clue if multiple streams are supported, but I'm sure say veeam has support for it

[astral haven]

Backblaze does

Google drive too

[vagrant pagoda]

and those services generally dont have an issue getting gig+

that isnt what i was saying i had issues with

[astral haven]

Sure but there's not much more you need those sorts of speeds for

[vagrant pagoda]

youtube have buffering issues was the thing i brought up as its funny

[plush stirrup]

could be ISP routing issues, could be adblocker, etc

[astral haven]

Its also that youtube choses not to send data that fast

[vagrant pagoda]

exactatly its a forced slowdown

[plush stirrup]

I remember my ISP had issues for 2months once, most services incl streaming services were like 10Mbps and 400ms, but only one route was left that still has 30ms and with VPN I got 25Mbps on that! (I was paying for 240)

[vagrant pagoda]

i am saying more speed isnt always the issue

[astral haven]

If you nab the video directly from the API, you can bypass that, the webpage and app just don't

[plush stirrup]

Well that just depends on the services one uses, or if an ISP sucks

[vagrant pagoda]

im saying expecting to get gig+ out of the interenet as a consumer isnt an isp issue most of the time

as someone who has had gig+ for a decade

but its also a non issue

[astral haven]

🤷 you can get gig+ whenever you want, just gotta multitask

[vagrant pagoda]

yep

the reason for gig+ isnt so one thing goes at gig+

its so that when you do 10 things at once youre still getting the max speed

it isnt an issue that steam is downloading at only 800mbit

the reason you have multi gig is that steam is downloading at 800mbit and you literaly dont even notice

i dont even have steam pause downloads while im gaming

because a gbit download wont even effect my ping

[plush stirrup]

for me it has some effect on my ping but that's just because coax xD I also just download while I play fps games

I usually lag anyways, not sure if I should blame valve or my ISP, but monitoring shows no issues on my side

stuff moving out of kernel, anti cheat news might come soon too

[vagrant pagoda]

dose nothing for dma cheats though

[ashen spindle]

well its not about those its about getting them out of kernel

helps for privacy and emulation etc.

[umbral heron]

Windows' security is an oxymoron
But it's good that they are moving stuff out of kernel
Maybe anti-cheat devs will use proper integration like eBPF and not hammering kernel

[steady sail]

But kernel loves hammering

[vagrant pagoda]

ebpf cant safeguard against the actual kernel being compromised, so if the cheaters have unlimited access to thier own hardware, ebpf only for cheats would make it less usefel

ebpf would make it harder for the game to attack the os, but not the os from attacking the game

[umbral heron]

Well, if actual kernel is compromised, then you're fkd either way

[vagrant pagoda]

we are talking about anticheat, it is there to detect if the kernel is compromised

[umbral heron]

I still think it'd be better to isolate game process to run in isolated container

[vagrant pagoda]

but that makes anticheat worse

[nimble arch]

We looking at macOS without anti-cheat

[vagrant pagoda]

macos dosent have game that people want to cheap on

[lyric hatch]

League is on Mac although it still doesn't run natively for arm based macs

[umbral heron]

Recompiling base code of League for ARM would make any Mac running it commit suicide
Probably the game with most technical debt and spaghetti code

[lyric hatch]

Having used it on my Mac I can confirm

[umbral heron]

Hiby x Migu player

[vagrant pagoda]

they just anoucced metal support like this week

[lyric hatch]

Well, hopefully they fix the Windows client while they are at its all a mess

[umbral heron]

Installing Rito Launcher right now is like giving your PC cancer, and I'm not overexaggerating here

[vagrant pagoda]

and it isnt kernel anticheat on mac, as apple has a fully locked down kernel

windows would have to make windows 2, that isnt backworards compatible with anything that uses kernel access to do the same

[astral haven]

They might be able to do an emulation layer like wow64

so what’s up guys in need of some help here lol…., i’ve got two viewsonic 185hz monitor one 27" and one 24". my 27 is vertical, my 24 is normal. on my 27" i’ve been getting these lines, but they’re never the same and sometimes there isn’t any. is my screen fked? any fix

& they just disappeared

[sharp badger]

Have you checked your cables?

[rare zinc]

i haven’t but i did since you’ve told me, nothing seems wrong. i unplugged it and re-plugged it in and here what it does

[pale sigil]

Aka can you try a different cable

Different video port etc

Looks like a cable issues Vs artifacts

[rare zinc]

i will be trying to find another cable and trying, thank you for the feedback

[lunar elm]

the client, the anticheat and the games themselves are all cancer

[crimson wigeon]

And yet people get hooked, somehow

[magic minnow]

I’d use that

They should stop calling it Linux

And just refer to it as SteamOS from now on

ArchSteamOS

Sounds cooler

[umbral heron]

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

[ashen spindle]

Ah the classic text of why windows is better because there nobody acts like that :p

[nimble arch]

I will break your systemd configuration

And recombobulate your kernel

Would you look at that https://www.phoronix.com/news/Bcachefs-One-Week-Later-Merge

[halcyon moss]

I think we'll be parting ways in the 6.17 merge window.

You made it very clear that I can't even question any bug-fixes and I should just pull anything and everything.

Honestly, at that point, I don't really feel comfortable being involved at all, and the only thing we both seemed to really fundamentally agree on in that discussion was "we're done".

Quoting is hard

[vagrant pagoda]

Linux would exist with out gnu, but gnu would be dead if it linux didnt exist.

[halcyon moss]

Tbf, gnu software does what is supposed to.

[vagrant pagoda]

im not saying gnu software is bad

stallman is a amazing for free software

but he ALWAYS is like linux exists because of gnu, which isnt true

Linus had more progress than gnu did on their kernel BEFORE he ever used gnu software

[crimson wigeon]

Except for the longest time you could only compile Linux with GCC, which is very much gnu software, and one of the first things ported was the gnu coreutils and such

[vagrant pagoda]

linus has said many times linux wouldnt exist if gnu had been successful with their kernel or if bsd had been out 6 months earlier.

[crimson wigeon]

Exactly

So it exists thanks to gnu

[vagrant pagoda]

but it would have existed with out gnu

the lack of any free kernel is why linux exists

not just the lack of a gnu kernel

[crimson wigeon]

Yeah and we luckily (or unluckily, depending on how you feel about monolithic kernels) live in this timeline where it exists and is pretty great, instead of being say a BSD where every vendor does their own proprietary changes and contributes nothing back

[vagrant pagoda]

the gnu kernel dosent exist because gnu failed to make a kernel, not because linux exists

[halcyon moss]

Herd.

[vagrant pagoda]

dosent work

[crimson wigeon]

And it doesn't exist because "eh, Linux.. good enough"

So it became a research project instead of a properly usable product

[vagrant pagoda]

gnu had been working on kernel projects for almost a decade before linux existed

gnu used a nonfree kernel and built the tools, which doomed the kernel support because for 99% of people they use the tools not the kernel so no one wanted to work on kernel dev

linus going kernel first made a massive difference for support

early gnu was plauged by kerels being depceated by thier manufactures, or just poor hardware support

[crimson wigeon]

And also didn't they want it to be pretty cutting edge instead of using something that works

Also known as microkernel

[vagrant pagoda]

the biggest difference between linux and gnu, is in gnu you do you

in linux you make youre software work with everything else

Linus and his NEVER break userspace motto has been a big part into it lasting

[crimson wigeon]

muh unix philosophy

[vagrant pagoda]

gnu is the opposite

its why you need 900 gcc versions

it was a huge deal when linux dropped 386 support

[crimson wigeon]

I've never had to use a specific gcc version, my experience is more like "oh yeah we only support (gcc / clang)"

[vagrant pagoda]

in like 2015

which is insane

and 486 was only dropped recently

nah they actually removed the code that made it work

[crimson wigeon]

And I think it probably barely worked, if it all anyway since no one tested it

[vagrant pagoda]

they were emulating 486 calls in software to make it work on 386

the fact that all the kernel had to work on a 386 in 2010 is wild

yeah it was comapre and exchange

they had it software emulated for 3865

[crimson wigeon]

Yeah it was fun running a modern distro back in like 2008 on a 10 year old (or so) computor at the time, even got a composited desktop going but oh god it was SLOW

[vagrant pagoda]

The fact you could compile and run a modern kernel on a non mmx Pentium is wild

[crimson wigeon]

But at some point, legacy compatibility starts to hold things back, just look at Windows for example

Although this more about userspace compatibilty

[vagrant pagoda]

You just have to include workarounds is all

You can use modern extensions if you include workarounds

Like id imagine 3dnow/sse floating point ops are used for all kinds of things

[trim crane]

I got this Radeon RX 9070 XT Prime OC a few days ago, and I'm pretty happy with it :)

[sudden imp]

I really like this thinner styled cards

No excess

[analog sinew]

gpus need edges so jagged you can baerly hold to install it smh

[reef patrol]

Do you want performance, or do you want thin.

[sudden imp]

Hmmm

I mean for the 9070xt a thinner cooler is fine

I think there is a balance

But if we really wanted to we could just have no cooler on the cards. Nvidia could charge extra for those!

[steady sail]

I want the thicccest gpu ever

[paper quest]

why is there no german layout for wooting software like its rng wich sign comes out when i press shift and 1234567890 one of these or if i try to press plus this comes ]]]]]]]]]

and i cant press the german a with the dots on top

wen i try this happens ''''''''''

it wasnt like this in the past its one of the newer updates

[reef patrol]

That is your OS

https://help.wooting.io/article/166-how-to-change-windows-keyboard-layout

[paper quest]

no its not

i checked

do you want a screen shot?

[magic minnow]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/comments/1llybn7/microsoft_has_retired_the_iconic_blue_screen_of/?

[reef patrol]

Wootility nor your keyboard has a language. This is entirely dictated by your Operating System. If you're using the browser version of Wootility, then you have to ensure it's not blocking access to your language settings (Brave shield fx), or it'll assume English.

[paper quest]

i use the app and i sent you a screen where you can see that i have the correct windows layout

[reef patrol]

My DMs are not open. You're more than welcome to make a thread in #1019755933959733258 or reach out to customer support. I'm just stating facts here.

[paper quest]

obviously not facts lol

[reef patrol]

Feel free to do your own research.

[fair gull]

from the output described and me knowing what german keycaps look like... it sounds like your pc is set to US keyboard layout

[frozen ingot]

was about to say

[paper quest]

i can sent you a screen shot too if you want

[digital cliff]

yeah bro's just on US english tryna type german here

send it here

[frozen ingot]

I've learned to never let windows have more than one kb layout as an option because it'll switcharoo those bitches on random occurrences

[digital cliff]

click the 3 dots

[paper quest]

ok that might be the case let me check

[fair gull]

one menu up what languages are installed

[paper quest]

yes there a 2 i think thats why i will delete the other and see if it works

[digital cliff]

windows at some point decided that you have to have "languages" under which you have "layouts"

[fair gull]

each language can have multiple keyboards

[digital cliff]

instead of just having layouts, which in and of themselves are of a certain language

fucking idiot design and not helped by the fact that windows goes "LMAO you wanted to use the other language/layout? here, I changed it to a random one for you!" every single boot

[crimson wigeon]

It makes sense, so you can type whatever language you want in a familiar keyboard layout (the language is there for things like spellcheck and autocorrect, predictions, so on)

[paper quest]

ok thats why thank you man +1 Tony -1 Mansen

[crimson wigeon]

Can also just hit winkey+space to switch whenever it gets autoswitched for whatever reason

[reef patrol]

It's still in your OS, not the keyboard.

So I'll admin that +1 back to 0. Sorry

[digital cliff]

yeah so just have ISO-FI and that comes with finnish spellchecking

[reef patrol]

[digital cliff]

I don't like the two-tiered menu because not all information is visible to the user

and to have two different keycombos to switch languages and/or switch layouts, or both, is crap

[paper quest]

you still couldnt help me so put it back to -1

[crimson wigeon]

I do agree it should be made more obvious but what if say I wanted to type in another language without also having to relearn my keyboard layout

[reef patrol]

You wouldn't provide information required TO help you.

[paper quest]

how did tony solve it then

[reef patrol]

He's German and has gone through this often 😉

[halcyon moss]

This discussion is going nowhere and only angers ppl

[reef patrol]

Indeed. I've got dinner to make and a weekend to enjoy.

[umbral heron]

Oooo, we hating on Germans?

[reef patrol]

Only after nein o clock.

[digital cliff]

so just use the keyboard layout and type in another language i guess

[paper quest]

das crazy

[crimson wigeon]

And deal with the nonsense

[umbral heron]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZpmnJS1TG4

[digital cliff]

what nonsense

[crimson wigeon]

Now all my words are apparently spelled wrong!

[digital cliff]

fair point but truthfully I'm not sure if most people use spellchecking

[fair gull]

given that im too lazy to fix my own issue where a bugged japanese keyboard is installed despite me having removed it ages ago.... yes

[crimson wigeon]

Although to be fair, the split makes slightly less sense with physical keyboards, it makes more sense if you think how touchscreen keyboards work

Since users of those tend to rely a lot more on autocorrect and such

[frozen ingot]

well no they assume chatgpt knows how to spell

[reef patrol]

I recall having a ton of issues trying to rebind the language change shortcuts that Windows seem to insist on being hardcoded.

[vagrant pagoda]

my windows goes between russian japansesne and english

no idea why

[fair gull]

ok guys the terror is over

i just forced it out

[digital cliff]

perhaps. I'd just personally rather see all active layouts in one screen rather than being divided into language menus

you could still have a language attached to each one for spellchecking, if you want

just have them be visible in one menu to make it apparent which ones are enabled

something like this is peak imo, everything is split into languages to make it logical, but all in one menu

[frozen ingot]

I don't know if its because I use one language for the OS and another for the kb layout that it keeps insisting on having two or more keyboard layouts to toggle between

[digital cliff]

I think so yes

since I don't think you can have an english OS without "English" being installed as a language

[frozen ingot]

that's not how the programmer intended it to work 30 years ago so it still gets confused

[digital cliff]

and each language needs to have at least one keyboard layout 🤪

[crimson wigeon]

There is some weird bug/feature that consistently makes the US keyboard layout (and maybe some others!) reappear even if you don't have it enabled

[frozen ingot]

I think I managed to delet the US layout from the layout "shortlist"

[crimson wigeon]

#justwindowsthings

[vagrant pagoda]

got multi gig fiber, cant even get 30 seconds of buffer

[reef patrol]

Gotta have premium for that kind of luxury treatment. And watch popular videos.

[vagrant pagoda]

i have it 😦

and this is a video from a 4m+ sub channel

[reef patrol]

[wheat plume]

My theory is that they don't prebuffer a lot because it all gets removed after the ad plays throughout the video
It has to start buffering from scratch after playing the ad
So the buffer it had loaded before the ad is all wasted data

[ashen spindle]

what ad

he has yt premium

[reef patrol]

That's not how caches work though.

[wheat plume]

Before I had premium
It would always have to start loading the video from scratch whenever the ad finished playing

[vagrant pagoda]

i have prem so no ads

ive had premium back when it was free with gpm

[hushed bridge]

Anyone know how to recalibrate the Wooting One? Every key is perfect except for the E key which struggles to hit 3.6mm, it stops at like 2.8mm generally.

I think its a calibration issue, I just got it as a gift from a friend

[crimson wigeon]

Unfortunately I don't think those old boards can do such fancy crap, I suggest swapping out the switch with a spare (if any are still remaining) or another switch where you don't need the full range

[hushed bridge]

Tried switching the switch between E and F9, E remained having an issue

[crimson wigeon]

Well that's odd

[hushed bridge]

Really awesome keyboard, plan to use it till I can afford the newer ones 😄

But was hoping I could get the E working, or at least add a per key deadzone

[hushed bridge]

Very odd right 🤔

[crimson wigeon]

Would make it be something on the PCB I guess

[hushed bridge]

I wonder if its something with the switches alignment, but unsure I have the expertise to figure it out lol

I can sorta hit 3.6mm if i force down on the bottom right corner specifically

So it can hit it

[plush stirrup]

Does yout ISP have cache servers?

[vagrant pagoda]

i mean what isp dosent

you can see that it is refusing to send me more than 30 seconds at a time

[unkempt lake]

I made it to the future guys

from 500/50 to 940/50

[vagrant pagoda]

almost

only 3 digit

[unkempt lake]

;-;

[vagrant pagoda]

4 is more better

[unkempt lake]

For only 3$ more per month

Worth

[unkempt lake]

No fiber

Coax only

[vagrant pagoda]

try cloudflares test, it might sneak 1gb

[unkempt lake]

nope

It actually gave me a worse speed xD

[vagrant pagoda]

F

[unkempt lake]

But its testing with a toronto server where as with ookla i can use a quebec city server

Which well quebec city is significantly closer

Seems to be hard capped at 945 down

55up

Plan is 940/50 so rhat makes sense

[exotic plinth]

Try dowlanding steam game as true test

[unkempt lake]

I did

I hit 900 peak

[vagrant pagoda]

nah i can literally download at 2gb and not slow down my steam

[plush stirrup]

Mine even goes up to 57 while playing, hence I was thinking maybe capacity issues somewhere?

[plush stirrup]

934Mbps is basically gigabit with overhead, could technically get a little higher still but not much

[vagrant pagoda]

i ment that Dashi could score a speed test that was quad digits

[plush stirrup]

just go to fast.com for that

that test is mainly fake and will show over gigabit if that's physically impossible

Does seem to be a little more accurate now though, at least is you assume overhead is included

[unkempt lake]

I tried several speedtests and it seems like 940 down with 5 overhead as it hardcaps at 945, 50 up with 5 overhead as it hardcaps at 55

[plush stirrup]

I mean they're just giving you gigabit

[pale sigil]

I don't think I can hit gigabit

But like 950

[plush stirrup]

you don't "see" that on your speedtest, but it is there, it's just overhead

[pale sigil]

Who cares though TBF XD

[pale sigil]

What is with that latency

Nvm

@unkempt lake imagine not having symmetrical

[plush stirrup]

haha fast.com showed it's true self again 😄

270 yet only 250 on my router hmm 😉

[pale sigil]

"fuck it, you have gigabit basically"

It's slow tonight

[plush stirrup]

I think fast.com can show 1.1 - 1.3Gbps if you only got a gigabit port in your PC 😄

[vagrant pagoda]

Cloud flares is better, gives you ping and jitter during the tests

[plush stirrup]

So does speedtest.net

Well not sure how the jitter is shown on speedtest.net but it does show some kind of download and upload latency.

same prob

2027-2028 for me

[nimble arch]

I’ll be upgrading to a new phone in 2029. Purchase my current iPhone last year so will be intending to get a full five years out of it. Same for the accompanying Apple Watch.

[lyric hatch]

battery might have other plans 5 years is a long time

[nimble arch]

I can get a replacement though

[magic minnow]

Is this for every phone model?

[nimble arch]

Pretty sure it’s covered, at least partially, under AppleCare.

[nimble arch]

Yeah, there’s a few other changes regarding availability of parts etc

If I’m being honest, it’ll make phones more expensive in Europe. I expect some of the budget brands to leave the EU market also.

[magic minnow]

I wonder if certain models won’t be sold in the EU because of that

[lyric hatch]

probably see an exodus of a lot of chinese brands I'd imagine

[nimble arch]

Which will suck for affordability outside of Western Europe where economies are weaker.

[old marlin]

It will probably be a benefit for those people as well

Since it will be a lot cheaper to own a phone over longer periods of time

Better parts availability and software support means that you can use the same phone for much longer obviously

[nimble arch]

The upfront cost might be an issue though.

Long-term averages are great and all but if the initial cost of purchase is too high.

It will price people out of the market.

[ashen spindle]

never understood why people want a headrest, an ergonomic chair generally is supossed to have a posture where you sit upright so the head doesnt lean anywhere

[vagrant pagoda]

i got a big ass head, it gets heavy

ooh, 3D printers are up my alley! P1S is pretty nice.

and the AMS is nice too

historically the only other time the price was this low is black friday

and Bambu Lab makes good beginner friendly printers

Prusa as well, but they dont sell direclty in the US.

[vagrant pagoda]

huh, when did that start

[tribal dirge]

Prusa has mostly always sold from Prague

until recently with Printed Solid, but they dont sell all their printers on Printed Solid and its OOS 90% of the time

machines come with one extra 0.4mm hotend in the box

I would recommend getting 0.2mm for super detailed stuff and 0.6mm for stronger parts if you so choose

[vagrant pagoda]

they ship to the us from there though

[tribal dirge]

yeah, but no US warehourses or storefronts is what I meant

[vagrant pagoda]

but they sell and ship to the us directly

[tribal dirge]

yeah, but that also means Tariffs apply

[vagrant pagoda]

tariffs apply to ones sold in the us though, as they are still made in prague

[tribal dirge]

correct, but this time the customer has to pay the duty directly rather than the US storefront paying for it and increasing the price.

complete hotend since with the complete hotend the swaps are super quick!

I would also recommend getting white lithium grease for the Z axis leadscrews since those need lubrication occasionally.

[analog sinew]

i wish someone would call my end hot

If you remove a cap are they bright under it? The top row.

[plush stirrup]

Nope I don't follow their news

[icy crow]

somewhat

[pale sigil]

Can you set all the colours the same and compare because the spacebar has extra LED on the PCB.

[icy crow]

actually, just fixed it, embarrassing mistake on my part lol

[pale sigil]

So it's brighter anyway and it looks like your keycaps are blocking a lot of the light.

Oh?

not chipped it came out

[tired orchid]

💀

[vagrant pagoda]

what came out?

[tired orchid]

its for te spacebar idk what they're called

[vagrant pagoda]

point to it

there is a stablizer and the swtich

[tired orchid]

the stabilizers

[coarse sundial]

Look at the right there’s nothing in the middle sorry that’s it’s dirty it’s been a while

[vagrant pagoda]

oh yeah you can just get a stablizer kit

okay what stablizers does the wooting 60 cuz thats what i got

[tired orchid]

it dont matter what u get they all should work

oki

okie thanksss

Stabs are insanely easy to remove.

[vagrant pagoda]

[pale sigil]

[pale sigil]

[pale sigil]

You have standard inserts by the looks of it.

It screwed in ones.

So the time code will help

[pale sigil]

Still can't say I've had an issue.

Just don't yank em

[umbral heron]

I need a new phone
Samsung decided to update itself to Android 15
And it's shite
Not only they removed my favourite gestures thingy, where I had "swipe from bottom" buttons for back, home etc.
To access quick settings I can't swipe down from wherever, it has to be specifically from top right corner
Oh, and if course it installed fucking Gemini I can't uninstall
Time to either root and downgrade or just get some flipphone keitai, I'm done with modern technology

[analog sinew]

wait what

if you cant bring up the buttons from the bottom how do you even get back

or are they somewhere else in a stoopid wayy

[umbral heron]

There are either buttons like they used to be in old Android
Or swipe from side to go back and from the bottom for home
I used to have 3 swipe from bottom buttons, supposedly it's not supported anymore

Oh, and phone started lagging, great

[lyric hatch]

Can't you add them back in goodlock

[halcyon moss]

the settings swipe is a setting.
pull down the notifications and then pencil button.

[quasi anchor]

Hi, I updated my keyboard and it stopped working afterwards. How can I fix this?

[umbral heron]

Doesn't support M series

[lyric hatch]

I don't think we those models

[umbral heron]

do we?

[umbral heron]

You get basically the same stuff as A series, but without the whole bloat

[lyric hatch]

And without goodlock apparently

usa is a rogue state

[digital cliff]

lmao, well one good thing to come out of this is EU can hopefully after this be more self-reliant

ditch the american tech giants for local counterparts

[reef patrol]

Microsoft's going to hurt so fucking bad from this 😄

[digital cliff]

in the short-term it's gonna suck since we just don't have the services yet, but let's say after trump's term... we probably will

and MS, googol, and the other evil overlord shitheads in silicon valley will have a EU-sized hole in their market share

[reef patrol]

Office is so integrated here in Denmark. Companies, State orgs... everything.

My thoughts and prayers to the IT staff who have to teach people how to use "not office"

[digital cliff]

eh, good news is office is not good to begin with, and technology, services and apps are more and more moving towards the "simple and just works" design

so if anyone puts out a simple office alternative that does the 80% of the tasks with 20% of the UI, it's probably gonna be easier to use than office, if anything

realistically that's what people need for normal office jobs anyway

[reef patrol]

Indeed. This is undoubtedly going to spark more competition. Hard to compete with "it just works, and it's all available from one source", but now that it has the stigma of "yeah the US could just shut down your shit with no reason or rhyme" that's a different tune 😄

[digital cliff]

right now the "80% of the tasks with 20% of the UI" is google's webapps, but since google is also murica... we need something like proton to pick up and complete their web docs suite soon

or someone else perhaps

[umbral heron]

Same with my work corpo
Should MS servers go down... we are fucked - I mean like we can't access anything
Even our servers because they are behind Microsoft's SSO
No e-mail, no contact, because Teams, no access to any services because Intune

[reef patrol]

We need a bunch of IT companies based out of some no nextradition country with insane fiber internet and no EU or US to interfere.

Time to shore up those tiny island nations that are vanishing from global temperature changes and erosion.

SQUARESPACE OUR SPONSOR

[ashen spindle]

https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-giving-away-free-one-month-of-adobe-creative-cloud-to-geforce-rtx-30-and-rtx-40-owners what an odd promo

idk im selfhosting my site but its very simple html only

idk probably best to check what similar sites to your idea use

the sponsors are a meme but for basic website wix and squarespace are fine

[halcyon moss]

TS or go?

[marsh glade]

Teamspeak 3 is a perfect piece of software

[halcyon moss]

just dump the website in an llm and watch it code oit for you :p

[digital cliff]

so you're actually coding the website and not using a builder?

[analog sinew]

some large services here have switched to open office already

and if fucking germany can do it

yeah the rest can get off MS aswell

[reef patrol]

Office isn't the problem. Office 365 (and relying on email servers abroad in a country that doesn't care about rights)

I don't think anyone REALLY cares if emails get read. It's having your account shut down with no way to address it.

It's not just a case of getting another email address, a ton of services are tied to that exact email, you probably don't have a catalogue of everyone you'd need to send an email to inform them of the new address etc...

[vagrant pagoda]

you think ms dosent have gov backdoors in the os and software lol, where a server is hosted matters little these days

[reef patrol]

You completely ignored my point.

Getting your shit read ain't the problem. Losing your shit is

[vagrant pagoda]

apple ios the only company with enough balls to say no

again

if you have the server, they can still kill the software

[vagrant pagoda]

the issue ive had with postgre is scale, it sucks ass at clustering

then it isnt bad

but yeah ive never gotten postgre clusters to work well

where maria takes like 30 seconds

[nimble arch]

I use JavaScript solely to insult Richard Stallman

Proprietary firmware as well

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah but galera is like 30 seconds and part of maria

[umbral heron]

I use BusyBox

[vagrant pagoda]

you just going to us ai to get keywords and link images with them?

also is immich any good these days i used it a while ago and it ran like ass

my issue is i have way way to may images

its all om the dB, which ironicly i think is post

inwas using the complete docker container, not a external dB server

but my docker is on nvme and it had 10gb of ram allocated

[halcyon moss]

You must hate yourself

[vagrant pagoda]

way bacjk in the day i ran a tracker and uses nginx and memcachd to directly serve from memory

this was pressd days XD

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah

10k request a second

i dont have the code for it anymore 😦

i let the domain expire

and because its still on a ton of torrents i cant afford to buy it because bots keep it for sale

[plush stirrup]

My dad also did that update lost his buttons aswell

I think I put both my parents on the swipe up thingies, saves a lot of screen space, hope they bring it back someday

[leaden kiln]

I think they removed the ability to minimize notifications in oneui7
stupid watch app has to have a notification or the app won't stay open to get notifications on my watch, and it takes up one of the precious spaces in my status bar

[leaden kiln]

and google killed 2 button gestures a long time ago 🥹

[fair gull]

me just disabling gestures all together and using nav buttons

[leaden kiln]

I do that now but I liked the old 2 button gestures

[halcyon moss]

Buttons all the way

[fair gull]

id i never got into gestures

buttons were always my preferred option

[leaden kiln]

and google kept making the 3 button nav less useful too, can't even activate split screen with them anymore

[unkempt lake]

Once you get used to gesture they become good

The adaptation time sucks tho

[leaden kiln]

I liked gestures instantly on ios but I still don't love current gestures on android
feels like it's been a thing for longer on ios though, they just moved some things around when they removed the homebutton, so it's a bit better implemented
google still has the hamburger menu gesture in gmail that you can't use if you have gestures on(you can still open the menu but not use the in app gesture)

[unkempt lake]

i feel dumb when nico hands me his phone for a sec and i try doing gestures

its a fucking se2 there's no gestures

🤣

[bright briar]

gestures on iphone nani

[unkempt lake]

Shit like swipe to go home or to open the app drawer

[bright briar]

dont use gmail 🤢

[bright briar]

Ooo....tablet with a screen the size of a small laptop

Would be tricky to hold maybe?
It's very very thin so might be fine?

[twin trout]

will the wooting v2 have something similar like the 60he+ founders campaign?

[steady sail]

from wooting

[twin trout]

oof only preorders i see

nvm

[pearl path]

what does 60 he mean and 80 he

[steady sail]

60 and 80 means the size HE is Hall Effect

[analog sinew]

smh when will there be 80SHE

[steady sail]

80HE Pro Max

[crimson halo]

Uhhh soo wooting cancels my checkouts because "my order can be fraudulent" or smth

[steady sail]

yesh

[crimson halo]

Can i fix it somehow or i rlly need someone to order it for me ?

[digital cliff]

latter

you can try the things in the email

[vagrant pagoda]

they just have hand rejection

[pale sigil]

Ok pixel you can do a gesture to start a countdown

Idk if iPhones have that

[regal epoch]

Anybody good with computer and can explain why my computer won’t factory reset and sometimes won’t give me the option to connect to wifi I have rog laptop I can find what type

[lyric hatch]

can also try press shift+f10 and enter in "start ms-settings:" see if you can get into network settings

[digital cliff]

or your laptop has a wireless on/off button on the keyboard and it's just off

[regal epoch]

thanks i will try

[reef patrol]

Get a USB stick, run the windows installer on it to make it an installer stick, grab the WiFi drivers from Asus for the laptop and nuke everything

[bright briar]

what charging brick do you use for your ultra?

[tired orchid]

I only ordered the Wooting 60HE+ Module and nothing else with it, it still comes with screws, and other things I would need to assemble the board right?

[reef patrol]

You're missing the case, switches and keycaps.

[umbral heron]

I don't really see why would you use RAID nowadays outside server stuff
0 is useless, because SSDs are crazy fast, and for bigger storage LVM is better
1 is not worth anything because RAID is not a backup

[tired orchid]

yeah i bought all of them seperately

does the module come with screws needed to build?

[reef patrol]

The case would. That's the only kind of screwing you'll ned to be doing.

[umbral heron]

https://tenor.com/view/nacho-why-confused-jack-black-gif-8714598

[tired orchid]

oh? so the the module is just.. the module @ accessories, the case provides all the stuff needed to assemble?

[reef patrol]

There's nothing TO assemble.
