karmic grail
@latent mural I plugged it into my 1-5fan splitter
The CPU fan speed is controlled by the AIO - hence max speed
karmic grail
I could slow it down but all my other fans would be slowed down too
Cause the motherboard only has one control for both plugs

they pretty much all are 100% hardware or have terrible software
the best one is the commander pro from corsair and that one is expensive af

they are either a:terrible or b:need a 5.25" bay
guess what his Inwin A1 doesn't have
yep
their marketing is genius though
the worst part is
with some improvements they could potentially have a pretty good product
at the current point people wait for finalmouse rights on their shells to be over and either nixeus or dream machines to improve it

Some apps don't support slplit split screen
plush summit
They remove split screen in Android pie
They're supposed to add it back but until now it fucking sucks that I don't have it
solar hinge
i've never used it before :p
crimson wigeon
No they didn't.. ?
Long press the app icon in the switcher, split screen is right there
wheat plume
Split screen exists in Pie
You need to press the app icon in the recents screen
@plush summit
plush summit
Where
wheat plume
Open the multitasking view
plush summit
That's a solid no
wheat plume
Press the app icon above the preview
plush summit
I click an app icon and it opens full screen
crimson wigeon
Long press it
wheat plume
My mom's phone is stock Pie and you just need to press it
plush summit
What the fuck
wheat plume
Huh?
plush summit
You click the icon of the app itself to open a full-screen window
What
I thought you meant the recently used but you mean the currently open apps
crimson wigeon
Oh I swear just pressing it didn't work in the past
wheat plume
It does now
plush summit
This is soooooo unintuitive
wheat plume
At least on this ROM and this ROM is stock as possible
Yes
That's the recent app screen
plush summit
You think that just holding the task view icon will bring up an option for split screen
I swear Google's getting Dumber
wheat plume
This screen is called the recents app screen
crimson wigeon
Well with my phone with "physical" buttons I can set the recents button to do split screen on long press 😃
wheat plume
Same on my navbar
wheat plume
Xd
crimson wigeon
And yeah works with onscreen as well but why would I waste screen space on those
wheat plume
Waht do you use rn Callum?
plush summit

Huawei's interface is garbage

1. When executable code is loaded into memory, it needs to be stored in addressable memory locations. This means that the code instructions need to be bound to specific address locations in memory so that CPU can execute them. State and briefly discuss three methods of address binding. Which method is used for relocatable code?
Compile time binding
Load time binding
Execution time binding
Run Time Binding
They called French and German
"Modern languages"
solar hinge
i know german because my grandfather lived in Aachen
and my parents only watched german TV until i was like 10 (then the belgian TV kicked them off)

Think I'm gonna try gpu pass through again
Technically 4 including 2x 570s kappa
But in reality 2
Gtx 750 and a 1070ti
I could just yanno use inboard
Onboard
I'm almost tempted to duel boot again but it's so annoying
Originally tried using virt manager
Fuck knows everything jsut wasn't responsive
At first it couldn't miht mount the gpu
Then it just wouldn't work, couldn't even boot the vm
I re installed it twice
The entire os
Followed all guides
So fuck knows what happened
I just gave up
Also when I was using lutris
It ran like shit
No one on the Linux discord could figure out what was happening too
No I know
I just shifted the topic a bit
I'm really bad for that
Sorry xD
I did not
Really wish you could use steams software to run none steam games

pale sigil
Ye I can but there's various reason why I hate it

I don't think you can play division 2 on ultra with any normal hardware
pale sigil
Performance, having to download the game again (can't use existing files) and other issues
And yes I can
pale sigil
There's 2 options that remove performance issues completely
1 being shadows and 2 I can't remember :p
timid chasm
What is normal hardware? I feel that's the case for most modern games and Ultra
volumetric fog hits the hardest for me
fair gull
psure ubisoft recommends the 2080ti and vega vii for ultra on division2
timid chasm
the game looks good even toned down I can't imagine the need for Ultra or how much it actually adds
timid chasm
hardly a super computer
I meant looks good toned down from Ultra to even medium. You can get it looking great if you play with the settings for a bit
latent mural
I have problems with the Ryzen 2700X and the Vega64, which both include it in a bundle
ond 2560*1080
fair gull
the fuck is that resolution
latent mural
21:9
fair gull
i mean id like to bench it on my rig
but i dont own it
nor do i wanna spend money on it
timid chasm
VII and 2080 Ti is their 4k recommendation but it sure as shit isn't running at Ultra for 60 fps
latent mural
if you didn't like the first game don't get teh second
timid chasm
unless you mainly hated the bullet sponginess
latent mural
it's worse in about every aspect imo
fair gull
i never played it cause of the massive changes from the trailer
timid chasm
definitely has issues but more enjoyable as a looter shooter than both Destiny and Anthem so far, imo
fair gull
how much is division2
timid chasm
60 if you go retailer. Probably 30 or 40 if you go Ryzen bundle
latent mural
40
timid chasm
If you get the pick two you may be able to sell off DMC or RE2 to get some back
I paid 35 for it personally
fair gull
too much
timid chasm
just to bench? yeah
fair gull
no even for finding out if i might like it
i dont know anyone who owns it and a decent rig to play it

or do you have 2 screens, otherwise i'm confused to what you mean, you mean the taskbar right?

not the freaking middle

latent mural
why left taskbar though?
wheat plume
save space
latent mural
only have 1 screen?
wheat plume
yeh
wheat plume
it saves vertical space
latent mural
you usually have less verticality
latent mural
it'S something
sudden glacier
auto hide saves even more space 
latent mural
and verticality is usually more imporant than horizontally
wheat plume
sadly you cant disable decorations on windows :/
latent mural
auto hide is garbage though
wheat plume
or the gnome desktop
solar hinge
i just have 2 vertical monitors and one ultrawide on horizontal 😃
sudden glacier
it's been pretty good for me too on windows 10
wheat plume
OP
that doesnt make a difference on the taskbar when vertical
the clock cant be made smaller
so the taskbar cant get smaller
indeed
fair gull
if u want more space get a 4k screen

sick creek
what is samsung flow
pale sigil
replacement for side sync
sick creek
ah
pale sigil
Im just going back to side sync
its much better than Air thingy
you can remote it with the screen off
which is important for OLED
sick creek
i use an iphone, so i'm only super familiar with icloud
what is your use case for remoting to your phone
to access texts? or what
pale sigil
i can also use my desktop for calls
which is handy
i dont use it often but its nice to leave my phone in my draw
and just remote in when i need it

Well that fucking sucks
wheat plume
if you were on Linux, KDE Connect is incredible ❤ I use it all the time

remote control your PC mouse and media player
find your phone

not bluetooth xd
fair gull
i use vysor to use my phone remotely
reef patrol
WiFi is made for large files... What are up on about 
It's not like a bad USB drive isn't any worse off
fair gull
just use ethernet cables
pale sigil
Ethernet is bae
fair gull
or if ure really cool use fibre or SFP+
pale sigil
Every device is connected to a switch in my house
fair gull
same for me callum
pale sigil
i always transfer over ethernet vs usb
wheat plume
pale sigil
but this is for my friend
his speeds arew well, not great and 100gb would take some time
fair gull
easy fix
dont transfer
other solution
take it apart, desolder the nand chip, solder it onto a pci-e adapter
easy fix
now u got access to the most insane speeds
if ure chinese it takes like 5minutes max
pale sigil
iw ant 10gb so much 😦
fair gull
okay new solution
dont put large files onto ur phone
just continuosly sync to a custom cloud storage
my english is onpoint today
pale sigil
Nah
Cloud is not great for mass files
Unless in a work enviorment
even then you usually use cloud software on a storage server
Using Cloud simply is not reliable for mass amoutn fo data
and syncing will still take space up
Right now i have everything on my NAS and all my cloud servers are synced with it as i use it for uni, i just mount it on my PC
So no need to sync files
I used to send backups offsite though
Syncing is a bad solution for large files.
Perioud.
Backup yes its good but not normal cloud.
You usually run a script and access images, not access the drive itself.
So no, normal means of cloud services is bad for backup.
This is also true.
Most cloud solutions are expensive.
fair gull
build your own cloud solution
pale sigil
In a work environment usually backups are just another server.
And like i said usually use your own cloud.
Using first party software though
A lot of companies used to use SharePoint
which was CANCER
fair gull
write your own cloud service
pale sigil
Most companies this is not doable and comes with a greater risk.
I would know, it was part of my degree for some reason.
and i used to do this as a job :p
pale sigil
Again this is not doable in a business environment, it costs to much and the risks are to great.
I don't think you realise.
Its not as simple as hiring someone.
fair gull
i do realise... but who said to do in during working hours
fair gull
i mean i wrote some tools for my job already to unpack encrypted firmwares for printers etc
sick creek
where's the LOTR meme
pale sigil
its not just something you build and be done with though.
sick creek
one does not simply...
pale sigil
there is so much more money and time that goes into this.
sick creek
if
pale sigil
it causes disruption regardless of times
sick creek
you guys are really ignorant to the numbers if you guys think building a cloud service thats worth a shit is an easy task
pale sigil
i cant belive im remembering all of this considering how much i hated it
but i have a 6000 word report on why this is a shit idea
if you want to read it xD
sick creek
not true, but ok
pale sigil
^
pale sigil
Because its so much easier.
sick creek
because in-house servers require in-house techs and in-house maintenance
pale sigil
idk how it is in other countries
sick creek
not to mention you dont have to fuck with the infrastructure
pale sigil
but the NHS here, every single hospital is connected.
sick creek
with a cloud provider you can actually pay for a minimum SLA
so your shit NEVER goes down
sick creek
its too expensive and error-prone to do in-house
sick creek
build better software
the cloud isnt the issue
when it comes to data breaches, it sure as hell is
pale sigil
I mean i do agree with brpc
sick creek
if you are having data breaches from the inside, then literally nothing you do can prevent that
pale sigil
But the issue is how difficult it would be to do such a big thing.
sick creek
other than finding and firing/prosecuting that person
we're straying from the original topic here
pale sigil
Multi billion doller countries can do this.
sick creek
the only consideration for a private cloud, if i were to attempt one, would be to start with openstack
but even then, i wouldnt fucking do it
pale sigil
If you look at nearly all companies they never use bespoke software
sick creek
yeah because as soon as the architect quits
or dies
you lose all that institutional knowledge
pale sigil
Exactly so creating even internal software is to risky, costly and time consuming.
sick creek
it is only good for the person creating it, because, job security
thats the only long-term tangible benefit
think about it this way
lets say you get 4 programmers to build your cloud
3 sysadmins on 8 hour shifts
at a minimum
that's 7 employees
that's gonna be around $700k/yr
OR
pale sigil
its not just about the cost of the person making it
sick creek
you can pay probably MAX $10-15k/mo for something insane on AWS or azure
pale sigil
its training, hiring more people to work with it, implementing it, creating a disaster plan etc
sick creek
yeah its a lot more than their salaries, for sure
pale sigil
and this causes disruption which causes loss of money and other issues
you also need to hire experts outside of the programming team
security experts etc
sick creek
the big cloud services do all the hard (read: expensive) shit for you
you can also pay them extra to secure your shit for you
it's still cheaper than hiring people
and building some half-assed shit
sure, you don't "own" it
pale sigil
And you give away your privacy
sick creek
but if your business isn't starting a new cloud service... why would you want to
pale sigil
Actually
if you use first party software hosted internally
its a good solution.
Look at OwnCloud, @spiral belfry uses it and i use it, great software.
There are companies out there that legit use it.
big ones
and its 100% free
spiral belfry
yeah, really very easy to install, will take like 15 mins
spiral belfry
yeah
sick creek
i was more talking about stuff like AWS/Azure for infrastructure
i used to use something like ownCloud
had two O's in the name, cant remember what it was called
spiral belfry
what infrastructure you want?
spiral belfry
ah ok XD I moved away from there because it costs too much to store my 2tb of data XD
sick creek
i'd use something like owncloud if i wanted to run yet another server in my house haha
spiral belfry
😛 what stress?
sick creek
well, 99% of the time it runs without issue
but like when i first set it up, it was running windows
then i switched to ubuntu
pale sigil
We all start somewhere follkes
karmic grail
😂
spiral belfry
@pale sigil yeah, we start on linux 😛
spiral belfry
why did you choose windows then?
sick creek
i cant remember at this point why
pale sigil
Nah my first actual dedi server was Windows, i took it from work to greater understand so work was easier, kinda had to but my personal stuff used Linux offsite.
If you mean serever in general then yes linux was my first via VPS etc
sick creek
it was terrible as a plex server tho
which is why i backed everything up, installed ubuntu and converted the storage array to ZFS
pale sigil
But thats what makes it fun
sick creek
oh boy, lets just replace the mono lib with a new major version and break HALF OF YOUR SERVER DAEMONS
thanks whoever manages the apt repos
i mean the real solution is to not use shit that runs on mono

anyone having trouble loading attachments on discord?
crude cipher
"Assume" lol this person must not understand what opensource means
wheat plume
one of my irl friends does not understand how open source is more secure
she says that if everyone has access to source code and can change it would that not make it super un secure? XD
crimson wigeon
Well they're technically not wrong
wheat plume
the thing they fail to understand is that if someone modifies the source code to make it malicious
It would not make it onto other people's computers because it would have to get into the software repo and those are regulated
for like ubuntu and arch, each package is tested to make sure it is safe
crimson wigeon
Yes
wheat plume
Jah
crude cipher
She is technically wrong.
The whole world does not have access to modify the source code, the whole world has access to possess and modify their own copy of the source code.
wheat plume
^^^^^^
and if it is a modification that the people who make the official source code like then they can add it officially after testing to make sure it is safe
crimson wigeon
My technically not wrong is the very rare case of downloading someone else's copy with malicious "enhancements", but that happens with closed source softwares as well so yeah
wheat plume
The discord changelogs make me wanna go commit die

I wonder if you can buy low latency USB relays that allow you to turn wired devices into wireless ones... either via bluetooth or a dedicated wireless dongle at the PC. Anyone seen this? Strangely I haven't, though I'm not a big fan of wireless.
solar hinge
Best thing to do, make an indiegogo campaign, fake everything and then a chinese manufacturing company will steal the idea and actually make it 😁
zenith sonnet
Problem is, that most peripherals don't have batteries built in
And got a cable attached
reef patrol
I see a second problem. You're adding more steps to the chain. I'd be worried about introducing latency from that, instead of just redoing the electronics of the main device itself.
solar hinge
I know this exists for headphones
reef patrol
Not to mention potential issues with passthrough and translation. I have a bunch of USB adaptors for things like M.2 and SATA disks at work. Chain two of those together and a PC doesn't know WTF it's looking at often, even though both are supposed to follow standard guidelines

apple decided that their cables are perfect
even though a random 10€ cable from amazon is much more durable
yep
especially when they kinow that some custoemrs will always get the 20€ one from apple
and that twice a year
they should just get airpower

My wife managed to wear out the OP3 cable after 3 or so years of abusing it

oneplus had those flat red cables?
zenith sonnet
not flat, but red, yes
Must've been a later version?
I dunno, earlier?
We got round ones
zenith sonnet
But dash charge is <3
latent mural
too unflexible in certain directions
the samsung cable feels quite thin
idk how durable it exactly is, but definetley more than the ones from apple
since it doesn't suddenly decide to shed itself
they use the softest rubber
they use extremely soft rubebr
and the conenctors are very badly designed
since the kink protection is basically useless
which gets worse by the 90° angles on the connector
which cuts the shielding
and then it starts to shed

maybe wrong channel but
What earphones are you guys using not overhead ones, currently looking for one for uni/getting to school use
50-75aud budget?
Yea earbuds, I do have a set of KZ ZST iems which they have been quite trashed after 3years of high school
I do want another set of those but looking for further suggestions (+ they cost me 19$)
latent mural
I like the Sony xb 500 ap, after a simple eq for the high end they become pretty nice
30 euro
They are closed so you can put them inside ear protectors without changing the sound
Buds are bad and make you feel bad
seems like you never used public transportation
if you don't have active noise cancellation iems are the only viable option for that
I decided to not listen to music inside public transport
Much rather prefer plain old ear plugs
It's just not a nice listening environment in any way
Near silence in public transport is where it's at!
I can't bear the noise of 100 middle school kids in a 20 minute train ride
Ear plugs, reusable, rubber
yea no
i'd like to hear something rather than nothing
especially when it's taking a while
Hearing nothing through a large part of the day is a luxury
if you want to hear nothing you can also stab your eardrums
don't want that though
No actually do that you will have the opposite

Trying to convince mum to stop paying for her TV via Sky (UK) for like 50 quid a month and switch over to my IPS and add onto my internet for much much much cheaper, meaning i save a lot and she does.
wheat plume
That is a solid plan

Wow true

@latent mural I dont like overhead style headphones, + too big
latent mural
They sound loads better though
Loads, Ha
No one will get that pun
But they really do sound better
karmic grail
Yea sound is really much better but I'm trying to get portability + maybe half the sound performance of overheadphones
- my head is massive lmao
pale sigil
Good idea
wheat plume
I don't use you

pale sigil
Ah ye it was me then.
pale sigil
Pretty much he is right though.
They like linux? a lot, they just focus on topics that don't involve Linux.
wheat plume
you could easily give a grandma Linux Mint and they would be fine
pale sigil
My mum can't even use Windows never mind linux
my Grandma can't even use her old nokia
wheat plume
I even enabled the normal navbar for her as she preferrs that
iOS
my aunt hated iOS for being so convoluted
so much prefers android

idk how to install peppermint OS's ICE SSB software
it makes a native app out of a website
i tried to find it in the AUR but nope
pale sigil
Speaking of which I'm going to install Linux today again maybe
pale sigil
Any distro suggestions? I usually use debian or Ubuntu on my laptop, desktop wise I used mostly Ubuntu
Desktop
wheat plume
Hmm, what you think of Plasma desktop?
pale sigil
What's it based on
wheat plume
It is a desktop, it can be installed on any Linux OS
it is the desktop made by KDE and used for KDE Neon OS
but I used to use Plasma on Manjaro also
pale sigil
Oh you mean like gnome etc
pale sigil
I've used it
wheat plume
i recommend KDE Neon
or Deepin if you like the MacOS style of blur and things
Zorin 15 looks amazing but that is still on beta
OFC I recommend Arch or Manjaro maybe even Antergos but the installer fucked up on me :/
pale sigil
thats not a distro tho :p
wheat plume
What isnt?
everything I named there is a distro
although KDE never claim Neon is a distro but it really is one
they just use it as a test bed to develop plasma on
pale sigil
gnome is pretty old these days
wheat plume
O?
wheat plume
Welp
pale sigil
There have been no reports of this
latent mural
What exactly have you done?
pale sigil
I don't wanna reveal right now 😄
but i have a theory as to why it worked.
I wanna do some more research before i get over exited
I managed to get a recording too
wheat plume
Install Linux From Scratch

Sure you do, just have to do it yourself.. or make your own package manager
