What's this I hear about Walmart game streaming though lol

pale sigil
#

Ye they wanna add it if their OP brand

crude cipher
#

First Walmart Cloud, then Walmart Gaming PC, now the illogical combination of the two lol

fair gull
#

24port switch and access point following soon aswell

plush summit
#

Wow

fair gull
#

prob overkill for homenetworking

#

but

plush summit
#

Licky

fair gull
#

i like it

#

currently still using it in my parents home cause i didnt move yet but even as a router inbetween the current router and my pc it works great cause it already increased speeds between my devices in my room

#

but for 260€ i cant complain so far

#

like it just works

sick creek
#

i have 3x unifi-ac-lite's

#

love em

#

or "UAP-AC-LITE" i guess

fair gull
#

they make serious good shit

sick creek
#

they've had issues with firmware releases in the past, but they've been solid now for a while

#

just make sure you turn auto-update off

#

it does not run updates at a consistent time, so it could occur in the middle of the day/night/whenever

fair gull
#

i think only AP firmwares auto upgrade anyway

sick creek
#

ah, ok, well if you get the APs make sure to uncheck that box

fair gull
#

first is the switch cause i got an AP from another comp for the beginning

sick creek
#

yea

#

i want to get the USG-PRO-4 and one of their switches soon

#

but my current setup works fine so i'm not that motivated to spend the money

fair gull
#

i love my pro 4 so far

sick creek
#

whoops

#

LMAO

fair gull
#

sadly dont have a gbit connection cause germany is shit

sick creek
#

didnt realize location was there

fair gull
sick creek
fair gull
#

already shit

#

LOL

sick creek
#

dat upload speed

fair gull
#

i think the speedtest server is shit

#

ik the server has symetrical gbit

sick creek
#

oh

#

you're using CLI on your server

fair gull
#

cause i tested when it was fresh

#

ya

sick creek
#

google fiber gives me this

#

but 29ms ping is lel

#

incorrect at best

pale sigil
sick creek
#

LOL

#

fuck that

#

can you hack them REEE

pale sigil
#

i actually can

sick creek
#

define hack

#

using a pre-built tool to root them? yea i guess

pale sigil
#

using old android, i can easily just delete the password files in /system

#

lol

#

All i have to do is use ADB console

sick creek
#

lol boi

pale sigil
#

and access the system files

#

its so easy

sick creek
#

i mean maybe if they're aliexpress specials

pale sigil
#

No im serious

#

its stupidly easy

#

Only recently phones have started encrypting the system files

fair gull
#

different server and now its working fine

sick creek
#

yea well lmk when you can replace the OS on the huawei tablet i threw out a few years ago lmao (it wasnt possible at the time)

#

nice

solar hinge
#

i wish i could update my acer tablet

pale sigil
#

more modern way

#

Samsung for example you cant because its encrypted, but other ROMs and phones its easy to get past

fair gull
#

"if you have a custom recovery installed"

#

well obviously u can then

#

u have complete filesystem access

pale sigil
#

Thats what i said 🀷

#

its not hard to put CFR on

fair gull
#

well that depends

#

and why

#

are

#

you

#

linking

#

indian

#

youtubers

#

no callum is obviously a tseries supporter

#

plsu u dont need the filemanager cause twrp has one built in

pale sigil
#

^

#

Was just giving an example.

#

Anddddd they are windows tablets

fair gull
#

even better if they dont use ms accounts

pale sigil
#

ye.....

#

we will see....

#

no USB port also.....

fair gull
#

it has usb micro?

pale sigil
#

ye its using micro usb

#

i can probably get away with otg

fair gull
#

otg

pale sigil
#

will that even show in boot?

fair gull
#

yes

pale sigil
#

anddd they are bound to an MS account

fair gull
#

just reinstall them

pale sigil
#

i really hope drivers aren't aids to sort out

#

cos i remember one of these years ago

#

being absolute cancer

fair gull
#

well is it from microsoft or another oem

pale sigil
#

OEM (Linx)

#

thank god i have 2 otg cables

#

lol

#

Actually not gonna make a difference as i need to use a mouse and keeb on them sigh

#

gonna have to do one at a time

fair gull
#

use a hub

pale sigil
#

ye i am but doesn't mean i can 2 at once

pale sigil
#

is there a plugin for quantum to run chrome apps yet

chrome estuary
pale sigil
#

Huh

#

*chrome extensions

chrome estuary
#

oh i was trolling.

pale sigil
#

The windows tablet took 40+ min to reset

#

My god these tablets are trash

#

Why do people buy then

crude cipher
#

Cheap

karmic grail
crude cipher
karmic grail
#

Honestly don't know lmao

#

But if it has like rumble it would be nice

#

simulate shooting a gun

latent mural
#

It is using ttc cherry-mx-clones as the main triggers

#

Way too much key travel distance for a mouse

#

At least for competitive shooters

#

My problem would be that i'd need to lower my desk to use it

hexed gyro
#

It's also a lot slower to use such a joystick.

#

There's more vertical drag.

#

This is only good if you need leverage to better control the resistance., which is basically 0.

#

So at best it's good for ergonomics.

latent mural
#

it is a better solution to game than a "normal" vertical mouse though, since those mess up your aim when you click

reef patrol
#

Awesome. The articles passed. Time to watch beaucracy burn. πŸ˜‚

latent mural
#

they can't serve content in the eu

#

because the necessary methdos aren't doable

#

they don't care

#

apparently it was part of a pipeline project which france refused

reef patrol
#

πŸ˜‚

latent mural
#

I can't find international articles on it yet

#

but it is a real shitshow

#

if that really is what happened

#

they wanted to build a pipeline in germany

#

and france refused that

#

and germany wasn't allowed to do it

#

out of the talk they apparently got the idea for article 13, don't ask me how that happened

plush summit
#

....

#

so the vote happens to day

#

the fate of the internet

latent mural
#

happened

sudden glacier
#

πŸ¦€ Internet is gone πŸ¦€

plush summit
#

wait what?

#

was it passed

#

oh no

sudden glacier
#

as a individual i dont think you have to worry about it

#

evolution will find a way

plush summit
#

restrictive evolution is the worst way forward

crude cipher
plush summit
#

yup

#

the dark web will be my generation

solar hinge
#

That's most likely going to happen

crimson wigeon
#

Good riddance

plush summit
#

welp

crimson wigeon
#

Finally an internet without memes

latent mural
#

2 or 3 years

#

sure

#

when they realize that it isn't technically possible

plush summit
#

everyone is

#

since everyone has a place in the EU

latent mural
#

well NA is indirectly affected

plush summit
#

what we COULD do is riegon block anbything form hte eu

#

that way they suffer

#

not us

latent mural
#

although most hosts will likely just avoid offering services in the EU

plush summit
#

^

latent mural
#

other way around

#

google will likely stop offereing their services that aren't legal anymore

#

well, there is no other way for the hosts

#

besides completely shutting off user input

plush summit
#

the internet is dead

#

welcome to the age of the dark web

#

yup

zenith sonnet
#

Eh, it probably won't get worse

#

Than it already is

#

Copyright should simply not exist.

latent mural
#

it should exist

#

but not like this

zenith sonnet
#

And, while we're at it, neither should patents

#

All information should be free for all to use and improve

latent mural
#

patents should exist

#

otherwise companies like wooting couldn't exist

#

some bigger company would jsut blatantly copy it 1:1 and sell it

#

and because they are bigger they'll make more sales

#

and destroy the smaller one in the process

#

as muhc as I'd like that everybody can improve everything that would end in monopolies

ashen spindle
#

good luck to any musican or artist if copyright is no longer a thing rooBlank wtf

latent mural
#

also that

zenith sonnet
#

I also don't think monopolies are inherently bad

latent mural
#

they are

#

one compny will rule over the pricing over one product category

#

and will never have to improve

#

sicne nobody will even attempt to make anything better

#

since the big company could just take it away from them

ashen spindle
#

they arent inherently bad, one big company could still try to get better and improve, but thats usually not likely to happen

latent mural
#

why should they?

ashen spindle
#

long term, better products later so you keep money coming longer etc.

latent mural
#

you like AMD but don't think monopolies are bad?

ashen spindle
#

the idea of capitalism is that you use that money to do something good, like invent new things, not keep getting bigger salaries taht end up in the millions

latent mural
#

look at intel cpu develpoment since 2016

ashen spindle
#

I never said they aren't bad?

latent mural
#

I meant @zenith sonnet

ashen spindle
#

he said "inherently bad" , which they arent

latent mural
#

intel just improved the smae processors since 2016

#

well they aren't

#

but they were never executed nearly as well as they must

#

you might as well introduce full communism

ashen spindle
#

aye, not disagreeing there either, I cant think of any monopol to disprove it, doesnt mean the general ide of it is bad

latent mural
#

something decentralized like huawei would be one of the better examples

#

not that they are a monopoly

ashen spindle
#

well they are state owned so there are many other factors

latent mural
#

they aren't state owned?

ashen spindle
#

am I mixing them up with something else? thought they were

latent mural
#

they are a share company

#

and the shares are exclusively owned by employees

ashen spindle
#

ahh there was some rumors about state owned firms buying stakes, thats what I was thinking of

latent mural
#

and the CEO owns under 3% total

solar hinge
#

every company that exists in china that is succesful is in fact state owned

#

just not officially

#

chinese law requires them to do what the government wants
their CEOs are usually higher ranked communist party members

crude cipher
#

@latent mural the problem is that employees don't actually ever own shares, they get allocated "virtual restricted shares" which cannot be bought or sold; in practice, they're getting a performance bonus with a stock value factor.

ashen spindle
#

Oh god my headphones just made a reaaaaaally loud annoying static noise for like 3 seconds, jesus did that scare me and put me fully awake rooBooli

wheat plume
#

O

ashen spindle
#

Sure wireless headphone. but like wtf rooWut

wheat plume
#

I used to have wireless headphones
Windows 10 hated them and no apps would send sound to them

#

Only system sound worked

ashen spindle
#

sounds more like bad headphones to me

wheat plume
#

They worked on my phone and laptop running Linux

#

I didn't have Linux on my PC at that time

ashen spindle
#

still sounds like headphones fault imo

#

was it something expensive or cheap?

wheat plume
#

60 euro from Amazon

ashen spindle
#

ye fairly cheap then

wheat plume
#

Photive

ashen spindle
#

ye I got Sennheisers

wheat plume
#

O

ashen spindle
#

I had the same issues once in the past, when I walked downstairs and went just out of range of it, so I thought it had something to do with that, but now im at my pc

#

phone was close by but that is usually here and I didnt get a text or smth either

wheat plume
#

Strangely enough I have a cheap ass Bluetooth speaker
And that works no issue on Windows

#

Some brand I can only find being sold in Tesco

solid osprey
#

Stay with gainwand 2080ti oc which goes up to 2070mhz core 8000mhz memory or get a quieter Asus rogue strix for 160eu extra

#

rog*

latent mural
#

nothing inbetween

#

and which gainward model do you have?

solid osprey
#

Phoenix oc

#

My main problem is the fan noise

pale sigil
#

Speaking of Linux

solid osprey
#

But the silicon lottery seem to be won with that chip and Samsung memory

pale sigil
#

Think I'll make the effort today

latent mural
#

@solid osprey looked at evga prices for you?

pale sigil
#

@wheat plume you use lutrus right

latent mural
#

or the msi gaming trio

wheat plume
#

Yupppp

zenith sonnet
#

What about a 3rd party cooler?
Should be around 40-50 bucks

solid osprey
#

@latent mural evga is way to high currently, msi uses micron memory so it would be a downgrade

zenith sonnet
#

For 160 you could get an AIO

latent mural
#

yee

#
  • a kraken adapter
solid osprey
#

options are stay with gainwand and get some watercooler on it, gigabyte aorus xtreme which looks great but is bad termal-wise (100eu extra) or asus rog strix oc for 160 eu extra

latent mural
#

for 160 you could get a really big aio too

solid osprey
#

I am not a fan of the looks with kraken

latent mural
#

or replace fans with noctuas

#

get 2 NF-A12x25

solid osprey
#

yeah but I dont think that that one vrm cooler is a good idea on a 2080ti

#

if I go with water, I go for a custom loop

latent mural
#

doesn't matter

#

a little airflow is more than enough

solid osprey
#

and the visual-side is rather lackluster with that custom aio solution

#

I just feel like 2080ti from asus or gigabyte would be merely a cosmetic upgrade with slightly less noise

latent mural
#

avoid gigabyte

#

don't think the asus cooler is that good

#

pretty noisy on my vega 64

solid osprey
#

read pretty good reviews about it

latent mural
#

it really is incomparable to my previous card

solid osprey
#

my gainwand is 70 - 76Β°C (with oc) asus should go with 65Β°C

latent mural
#

my 1080 amp extreme

#

replaced the fans with NF-F12 ippc fans

zenith sonnet
#

Asus has a habit of slapping Nvidia card coolers on AMD cards with little to no modifications

latent mural
#

yup

#

unfortunatley I couldn't get a sapphire card

zenith sonnet
#

Doesn't help AMDs image, either...
Pretty shitty all around

#

Why not? Sapphire for lyfe

solid osprey
latent mural
#

@solid osprey get a kudan dogelul

#

avoid gigabyte

solid osprey
#

would compliment my gigabyte aorus 7 mobo ^^

latent mural
#

they make good mobos

solid osprey
#

ye shit bios

latent mural
#

but not good gpus

solid osprey
#

but good mobo

latent mural
#

ye, the bios is horrible

#

friend has a z170 gigabyte board

solid osprey
#

bios is directly from hell

latent mural
#

the mouse can either move on the x axis or the y axis

solid osprey
#

but my 2700x overclocked way better on it then on asus crosshair hero 7

latent mural
#

not both

#

haven't tried on mine yet

#

but tunfortunatley the top pcie slot is broken on mine

solid osprey
#

got stable 4,3ghz on my

latent mural
#

and I don't want to rma

solid osprey
#

with 1,47v

latent mural
#

since I'd have no board for the replacement time

solid osprey
#

its difficult to fry a cpu nowdays πŸ˜ƒ

#

or a mobo

latent mural
#

not with the crosshair 7

#

put it in ln2 mode

#

and you can use like 1.8v

solid osprey
#

ok well that would almost sound as intended cpu murder

latent mural
#

without ln2 mode it goes to 1.6

solid osprey
#

ye but I already have problems pushing over 1.5

#

for everyday use

#

just dont see that point

#

damn but which gpu to get

#

cheapest custom loop would be 250 eu

#

and considering I payed 1,2k for a gpu its rather much lol

latent mural
#

you sent a german amazon link

#

are you fro mgermany?

solid osprey
#

ye

latent mural
#

and what is your budget

solid osprey
#

1320 eu max

#

1350 if I go full retard

#

I prefer to with amazon tbh - way to easy to send back the card in case of rma or if u want a new gpu 2 years later

latent mural
#

amazon is soo expensive though

solid osprey
#

usually aroudn 100 eu more then lowest offers from some other webshops

#

but service is just way to good

#

had problems with my msi card once 2 month before warranty was over - one of the fans stopped spinning sometimes

#
  • full money back
#

800 eu

#

no questions asked

#

didnt even had to wait till they control it

#

went to post office, gave them the card with amazon rma ticket

#

instantly got an email that the money was refunded

#

its just to convinient to stay with amazon after something like this

pale sigil
#

Hmm I might use Manjaro

#

I think it's a good stepping stone from debian

wheat plume
#

Yeh πŸ˜„ I do love it

#

It is a bit bloated but you can remove stuff if you dont use them

pale sigil
#

Joys

#

Can't shrink my ssd

wheat plume
#

o

#

wait why you do that?

pale sigil
#

So I can make a patrician

wheat plume
#

Boot into live USB and go to install Manjaro then you will get the option in the installer to install alongside Windows
then you press next and it will ask you to pick a size for each OS

pale sigil
#

0h

wheat plume
#

thats how I duel boot

pale sigil
#

Didn't think that was a thing outside ubunu

wheat plume
#

It is now!

pale sigil
#

I shall do that then

wheat plume
#

what edition of Manjaro you pick?

pale sigil
#

KDE

wheat plume
#

o nice

#

but screen tearing can be bad on nvidia drivers
but I know how to fix that if you need me to

#

also when you boot up
if you have nvidia drivers
select non free on that menu that asks for timezone and keyboard layout

pale sigil
#

Ido what else to go for really I only know gnome but I'm not s huge fan

wheat plume
#

it will auto install nvidia drivers for you

#

I love Plasma desktop ❀

#

I used it for months

pale sigil
#

Will it install vulkan drivers?

wheat plume
#

Yeh

pale sigil
#

Plasma is just part of KDE isn't it

wheat plume
#

Vulkan is native on Linux I think

#

Plasma is KDE's desktop

pale sigil
#

Ye

wheat plume
#

they make a bunch of software

pale sigil
#

Not that I ever used ubuntus store but is there something similar on mandjaro? Most of the time I use the terminal but for things like discord it's just kinda easier lol

#

From what I understand there's a community thing

wheat plume
#

Yeh
Manjaro comes with Pamac
it can handle installing from the Arch Repo and also (if you enable the feature in preferences) it can install from the AUR (Arch User Repo)

#

BUT....Manjaro KDE comes with Octopi...which is basically Arch version of Synaptic package manager and its a pain to use

#

so I recommend using Octopi to install Pamac and then remove Octopi

#

it is great

#

he is also using manjaro KDE so these will apply directly to you

pale sigil
#

I probably wouldn't disable grub delay :p

wheat plume
#

Yeh, you need that to duel boot xd

#

I love the elegance of GNOME desktop but I prefer the way that Plasma handles screenshot and animations and customisability

pale sigil
#

Guess I'm gonna have to start using different backup tools etc now

wheat plume
#

Timeshift is great πŸ˜„

pale sigil
#

If I stick with it I'm going to have to adjust a lot

wheat plume
#

Yeh
Ubuntu to Arch is a big step in terms of software installing

pale sigil
#

I've never properly stuck with it outside of using it on my laptop

#

There's not much difference in the terminal so I should be fine

#

I've always used the terminal

wheat plume
#

are you ok with terminal for installing software?
I recommend to install "yay"

#

yay is a way to install software from the AUR

#

and it can run updates by typing yay into the terminal

pale sigil
#

Most of my Linux experience has come from server terminals I used to run etc

wheat plume
#

ahh right right

#

ok then

#

then pacman and yay should be fine for you

pale sigil
#

I basically started my Linux journey via Linux severs lol

wheat plume
#

πŸ˜„

#

noice

#

I started with ZorinOS 10

pale sigil
#

I mean I dabbled with it when I was little but not much

wheat plume
#

oo

crimson wigeon
#

I started for realsies with Ubuntu 6.06 because I saw spinning cubes and wobbly windows and wanted that

wheat plume
#

XD

#

you can get that on any desktop you like apart from GNOME

#

install plasma and they come built in you just need to enable them in settings

#

I used those on my Manjaro KDE ❀ so freaking badass

crimson wigeon
#

Yes but back then setting that up wasn't the easiest

wheat plume
#

Yeh :/

#

you need to install a bunch of Compiz stuff and then make the OS use compiz instead of whatever other window manager it was already using

crimson wigeon
#

Also XGL

wheat plume
#

huh?

crimson wigeon
#

Guess you're not old enough

wheat plume
#

LOL ok

pale sigil
#

Linux in general wasn't easy back then

#

Installing java

#

Dear god

wheat plume
#

yeh.......

pale sigil
#

Brings back nightmares

wheat plume
#

thats still kinda difficult

#

But I got 11 installed

#

so im happy

crimson wigeon
#

It took me hours of wrangling to get it all setup but then damn it felt good the one time I started X and it was very smooth and oh look wobbly windows and the cube!!

pale sigil
#

Vulnerable tho

#

And then the next day you install windows XD

wheat plume
#

e

#

w

crimson wigeon
#

And then fast forward a bit and oh boy it was the glory time of desktop effects with Beryl, they don't do them like they used to

pale sigil
#

I mean

#

Isn't KDE just windows on Linux lol

crimson wigeon
#

Not really although the interface design is definitely more "traditional" compared to modern GNOME

wheat plume
#

KDE does look like windows layout

#

^^^

#

I do love how elegant gnome looks once you get a nice theme for it

pale sigil
#

Show me your current theme

wheat plume
#

the drop down menus, the reactive design, AGH sexy

#

I cant rn

#

I have cinnamon desktop on my laptop

pale sigil
wheat plume
pale sigil
#

= windows inspired

wheat plume
#

Nah, thats called the traditional layout in Linux

#

it is what people are used to

#

GNOME basically says fuck it and does its own thing LOL

#

but if you use extensions you can get the traditional layout on GNOME too

pale sigil
#

Windows is just so boring

wheat plume
#

YUP

#

and you cant do anything you want with it

#

you cant even change the fucking font without adding a registery key ;-;

pale sigil
#

But the thing is, it works and is the standard, Linux is getting there but it's still gonna take time

wheat plume
#

Linux takes a while to set up

#

but once it is set up its is freaking solid

reef patrol
#

Aww yiss.

wheat plume
#

oo

reef patrol
#

Moar small factor building incoming. First the Node 202

wheat plume
#

πŸ˜„

latent mural
#

is there no gigabyte board for mini itx? dogelul

reef patrol
#

Not sure.

latent mural
#

idk if they have one or if it is good

reef patrol
#

The phantom has thicc cooling though.

latent mural
#

they destroy the other atx boards though

#

tehy do have one

reef patrol
#

Yup. They make Z390 itx. But the varm cooling is much smol

latent mural
#

the asrock boards seems to be the best one though

reef patrol
latent mural
#

vrm cooling on mini itx is pretty much always underwhelming

reef patrol
#

TBH though I won't be needing it, since I don't plan on overclocking.

#

SFF cases aren't exactly OC friendly πŸ˜„

latent mural
#

a cool vrm is still better than a hot one

ashen spindle
#

vrms also rarely need cooling if you just OC on air/water

latent mural
#

it'S different for new intel plattforms

ashen spindle
#

yea depending on how much power you draw, but most cases its good enough

#

like they can be at 95C the entire time with no issue or performance loss

latent mural
#

ik

#

they easily get hotter when ocing though

#

if they don't habe adequate cooling

fair gull
#

looks at his new i7

latent mural
#

why no i9

#

that's the new hot shit

fair gull
#

na

#

still sad i didnt go with the tr 2990wx

latent mural
#

why did you take the i7 then?

#

and not something with more multicore performance

#

if that is what you care about

sick creek
#

I9 isnt that much better

#

For parallel workloads i guess

ashen spindle
#

wat

#

how does nvidia have anything to do wiht HT?

#

got a link to it? it does sound very interresting

fair gull
#

the i7-9700k smashes multithread aswell

#

even with just 4cores

#

@latent mural if i would have gone with the tr i would have gotten 256gb of ram aswell or max that the cpu supports if not 256

#

cause of vms

#

but now its just my personal gaming rig

ashen spindle
#

ty

fair gull
#

so no real need for multiple cores

latent mural
#

tbh idk if tr supports more

#

but it supports ecc, so it could physically get more

zenith sonnet

God damn, Nvidia, time to fix your drivers

They recently did a good though! They gave a driver update to fix high CPU usage on the Plasma desktop

Still in the Wayland world? Something I've noticed with Gnome Wayland is that the activities view stutters hard, even makes the mouse pointer stop moving in Wayland mode

wheat plume
#

You on Nvidia?

#

On this laptop on integrated graphics it is much smoother than xorg + Nvidia on my pc

#

They both have an SSD

crimson wigeon
#

No

#

It's a stuttery mess both on AMD and Intel graphics

#

On X it's smoother but mostly that the mouse pointer remains responsive

#

The all apps view is the worst, that thing animates at like 15 FPS

wheat plume
#

I got Wayland on this gnome session and it buttery smooth

crimson wigeon
#

Is it still buttery smooth when you look at the all apps grid?

wheat plume
#

yup

pale sigil
#

Think I'll try and salvage my keyboard build, remove the pcb via attempt de solder and ripping them out in general

#

Only $30

And rebuild my kbd75

Oh that's the next thing I'm asking from my massdrop contact.

Always wanted an ortho

pale sigil

Mass drop contact?

#

Huh

crimson wigeon
#

Hmmm... wonder why I've never seen Gnome run smoothly on any PC then..

pale sigil
#

@crimson wigeon I've never had a smooth experience with Gnome but it's usually down to nvidia drivers

halcyon moss
#

It's fairly smooth on my x1 extreme πŸ˜‰

#

in 1080p 1 display after a fresh reboot. Suspending seems to slow things down significantly

pale sigil
#

Hit and miss tbh, sometimes I'm fine sometimes I'm not

#

I've been to lazy to figure out the issue

crimson wigeon

Nvidia I don't use

halcyon moss

if you got taxed for importing it'd be different

it's not that incommon actually

just different ways

Belgium and the Netherlands are just awesome and don't do this

latent mural

he shouldn't need to pay customs for importing form another EU country

solar hinge

it's probably just a fee for paying

wheat plume
#

in ireland if you get anything into ireland you must pay 25% import fees

latent mural
#

that's messed up

#

the EU is a free trading zone

wheat plume
#

yeh....

#

that is less at least

latent mural
#

in germany outside of eu it's 19%+customs

you couldn't say, if you buy from ottowa and you live in vancouver and you have to pay vat in ottawa and another tax in vancouver

wheat plume

o.o

latent mural

?

solar hinge
#

that's how i would compare it within the EU

latent mural
#

you have to pay import fees within the country?

#

the eu is not one country though

solar hinge
#

no, but he said buying outside of canada

#

the EU is a free trade zone

#

there should NOT be any barriers

#

so as a comparison, that would be fairer way of comparing it to canada

toxic jolt
#

alright so I reset my phone, and I wanted to reconnect my watch without factory resetting it

#

that had to have been one of the shadiest things I've done yet

#

had to wire phone to computer, set up debugging on both watch and phone

#

connect to watch over phone on computer via wifi

#

then use ADB to run to weird setup thing

#

that allowed it to do first time setup

#

I found some batch script online, but it didn't work

#

had to add -s 10.0.1.4 (IP of watch) to each command, because it would only work if my phone was still connected, so had to specify device

#

then I had to run the commands individually, because the restart command doesn't finish

#

heres link if anyone's interested

#

@sick creek the kryonaut thermal paste holds years tho

I got a sick deal on mine

employee thing, got it for 60% off or something

it's been buggy af but really good to me

#

I mainly like that I can switch songs while I'm driving without having to pull up my phone

fair gull
#

thats integrated into my steering wheel

toxic jolt
#

I have to but it don't work

#

probably old bluetooth protocol

My car isn't cool enough to have steering controls. I have an aftermarket radio anyway

toxic jolt
#

I love my car but I'm too self conscious to race it

#

It's just a turbo'd 2 liter

#

It's got all the bells and whistles, and I get people try and bug me on the road every once in a while

#

But I don't think my self esteem could take it if some punk in a civic showed me up

chrome estuary

toxic jolt
#

Ah

chrome estuary
#

I wouldn't mind something like Ford's Ecosport tbh

toxic jolt
#

Mhm it's all fun

#

It's not so great in SUVs as much as the cars, but it's still fun

#

But the gas will kill you if you're too hard on the pedal

#

I'm not sure how ford tunes theirs either, if you can put regular gas in it or not

#

Mine is premium only, otherwise I end up with either 2 horsepower or broken valves

#

And I LOVE the sound of the turbo

#

Aka I spend lots on gas

chrome estuary
#

Well their ecosport gets roughly the same mpg that my car does but I believe has a larger tank.

toxic jolt
#

That's where they get ya tho

#

That's mpg in BEST CASE

#

someone could have literally stuck a stick in the turbo for better mileage

#

As soon as that thing spins up, it's game over for your wallet

#

But your bhp goes through the roof

#

Generally they're still pretty good though

#

I'm not sure what kind of turbos they use

chrome estuary
#

Yes but this is a small SUV meant for families and stuff. Not vroom on the track doing a few hundred.

toxic jolt
#

But at that point do you realllllly need a turbo

#

Or do you want a supercharger

chrome estuary
#

I never mentioned turbo friend

toxic jolt
#

That's what the EcoSport is, no?

#

Or am I thinkimg of something else ford does

chrome estuary
#

Haha no. It's a gas friendly small SUV. It's like their fusion line

toxic jolt
#

Mmmm I'm thinking ecoboost

#

Mb

chrome estuary
#

Yea

toxic jolt
#

Lmao they have a turbod 1l i3 model

#

I don't know what to think

#

It looks like a small turbo so thats good

#

Last thing you want in a 80hp suv is turbo lag

#

OOF 100bhp under load

#

Bruh

#

Still doesn't make me feel any better

#

Half of me wishes I would've bought an older Evo

#

Other half is like "bro you suck at stick + it's old so it doesn't look cool"

#

Only 60 extra HP

#

About a 20% increase

#

But would it be worth it?

fair gull
#

idk man id only drive stick

it has to be portable

24" is right over most standards for carry on

ashen spindle
#

it wont be much cheaper than the normal vive, if at all

pale sigil
#

Ye they'll probably fuck up the pricing

crimson wigeon
#

By that I meant not a slight step up like Vive Pro and yet insanely expensive

ashen spindle
#

think general cost reduction is something the generation after will bring

#

yea no the vive pro is just stupid

pale sigil
#

Oculus are abandoning the pc vr so right now vive is our best bed

#

Don't fuck up vive

Your wands are trash

ashen spindle
#

nah oculus still has the cheap pc vr space

crimson wigeon
#

Well this looks to be Valve, not HTC/Vive

pale sigil

#

Why do you have to say cheap? Vive owners are so elitist

ashen spindle
#

????? I have an oculus

#

cheap in comparison

#

not quality wise

pale sigil
#

Right

crimson wigeon
#

Cheap is a good thing as then more people get it and thus we get more VR stuff and all that

pale sigil
#

So many people say the opposite and trash the odious

#

Oculus

#

Does my absolute head in

ashen spindle
#

if only htc vive would be a thing vr would be dying because not enough people have acess

crimson wigeon
#

Oculus deserves credit for starting this current VR wave

ashen spindle
#

we are just in a transition time, where we need better AND cheaper products for it to become truly mainstream, and we cant yet get both of these things at the same time

pale sigil
#

I mean windows mixed reality is cheap and decent

#

Hell I even prefer the controllers over a wand

#

Just tracking is meh

crimson wigeon
#

And so is availability, at least here

pale sigil
#

Since oculus discontinued the current one

#

External tracking is no more

#

Which makes no fucking sense

ashen spindle
#

roomscale is for a lot of people a problem, even if they can afford a vr headset and have a pc for it

pale sigil
#

Mate I've used both internet tracking and external and in my tiny room I had more issues with internal

#

It's shit

ashen spindle
#

that is an issue with the implementation, not the idea itself

pale sigil

@zenith sonnet the response time of that screen is 100% dci-p3 coverage at 100$ per second

you don't get such a screen for the response time
