And even then they could fail still

#

My friends class about 17/25 failed the exam last month

#

And in my class about 7/16

timid chasm
#

daaaamn that's a big failure rate.

pale sigil
#

We were forced to do oracle sql

#

Hated it

#

Outsourced it 😂

reef patrol
#

That sounds criminal. I see a very, VERY good case for disciplinary action towards that professor from the admin...

#

As far as the 80% can't do the work rate.

fair gull
timid chasm
#

Yeah that's some bs for sure.

I got a buddy in graduate school that had a class that required a semester project. Halfway through the semester the professor said that she wasnt going to allow one of the methods for doing it and some students had already half finished by doing it that way.

#

Personally I would've bitched a lot

fair gull
#

save me

latent mural
#

from what?

fair gull
#

this shitty case

pale sigil
#

You loved it the other aha

#

Day

fair gull
#

no the parts are nice

#

the case is shit

#

cant even fit the fans above the tray for the rad cause its too slim

#

plus tempered glass on the backside

#

looks shit

pale sigil
#

Wait no sorry that's someone else

latent mural
#

what is that case?

#

phanteks 400s?

fair gull
#

enthoo evolv atx

latent mural
#

is it that bad?

fair gull
#

the evolv x is better

latent mural
#

I always forget taht that one has completely new tooling

fair gull
#

like it really got points with the neatly organized tray of screws etc

#

but then fucked me totally with the rad mount

latent mural
#

rip

fair gull
#

plus ya not a fan of both side panels being tempered glass

latent mural
#

oh

#

yea that's bs

fair gull
#

like i get the main side being tempered glass

#

thats where all the shit is visible

#

but the other side only has cable management and at most 2 2.5" drives

latent mural
#

for rgb ssds

#

which slow down becasue they overheat

#

because the LEDs heat them up

ashen spindle
#

but SSDs prefer beeing warm over beeing cold, don't they? aside from the controller rooThinkingNut

latent mural
#

the controller overheats

#

and then it slows down

#

they hyperx rgb ssd does that

ashen spindle
latent mural
#

that one

fair gull
#

best part about this build was the customer all like "you know i have a pro and one evo m.2 ssd right?"
me: "yes"
customer: "so can you put the pro on the slot closer to the cpu?"
me: "makes no speed difference where we put it"
customer: "but it looks better with the pro right at the cpu"
me: "there will be a heatsink over the entire slot and ssd with your chosen mainboard"
customer: "no i saw a video"

#

end result: heatsink over the ssd

latent mural
#

lol

#

tbh

#

I hate the heatsinks

#

becasue they are designed badly

#

thermalpads are always too big

#

and you have to use them

fair gull
#

true that but still somewhat better than pure air

latent mural
#

nah

fair gull
#

mine were right sized

latent mural
#

the controller doesn't overheat on those

fair gull
#

uh well

latent mural
#

at least if there is any airflow

fair gull
#

i had one that did

latent mural
#

how

fair gull
#

altho it was reading/writing constantly

#

for like 12 days or so

latent mural
#

yeah

#

ok

#

extreme case

#

explain me this crap then

fair gull
#

buy ya i feel so pissed of by customers who think they know better than the guy whos job it is to build pcs

latent mural
#

they always think they know better

fair gull
#

why the liquid cooling

#

the fuck

latent mural
#

ik

#

execute the shit they say in a way which will make their dumb logic obvious

fair gull
#

i did

#

i put the pro in the bottom

latent mural
#

btw, do you also have scanners included in your SI deals?

fair gull
#

lol

latent mural
#

lol

fair gull
#

we have scanners, copying systems, printing systems

#

pmuch anything

latent mural
#

our IT is in fear that fujitsu discontinues the ix500

fair gull
#

thonk

latent mural
#

which currently is our go to for many years

#

since it just works

#

the product page already was away for a week

#

returned though

#

so what scanners can you recommend?

fair gull
#

the ix500

#

kappa

#

literally our go to scanner

latent mural
#

rip

fair gull
#

for doctors etc

latent mural
#

I hope it won't get discontinued

#

since everything else we tried until now was worse

fair gull
#

lets say u didnt hear this from me but

#

i didnt get notice of them being discontinued

latent mural
#

good

fair gull
#

hundreds in the shelfs in most warehouses we can see

latent mural
#

our boss saw that the page was down for some time

#

and told us to find another alternative

#

but if they have at least a hundred in storage

fair gull
#

the power bricks for em are kinda of rare tho

latent mural
#

we still have all of ours

#

since we couldn't manage to kill one yet

fair gull
#

for us its more that doctors move into towns and loose theirs

#

dont ask me how

latent mural
#

lol

ashen spindle
#

they probably handwrite the address on their packets and so they drivers cant find the house

latent mural
#

one of the power bricks is 50$ from fujitsu

#

rip doctors

fair gull
#

yes they are

#

and funny thing

#

i cant order them atm

#

since a few weeks

#

cause of low supply

latent mural
#

lol

#

"if you want it repaired you ahave to buy a new 450€ scanner"

fair gull
#

na we usually sell them some of our private backups

wheat plume
fair gull
#

@proud nacelle lol

#

wheat plume
#

I thinks it's three finger hold then tapping with a fourth finger

fallow bison
#

Oh i have no idea xD

wheat plume
#

I was right !

fallow bison
#

Oh thats sweet

wheat plume
#

Yah but it never works for me ;_;

fallow bison
#

Oh lol rip

wheat plume
#

I use the overview instead

fallow bison
#

Sooo how do i install that gnome desktop kde connect thingy

#

I'd love that

wheat plume
#

Gtg ;_;

#

I'll tell toy with I get home

fallow bison
#

Okok!

pale sigil
#

Not s huge fan of gestures

timid chasm
#

that moment in time when intel HD sat on top on steam lol

ashen spindle
#

ye bc they didnt check if the system ONLY had intel graphics lmao

#

still see random tech sites showing how intel has >60% of the consumer grahpics market...

latent mural
#

well, technically they do have a lot of %

#

but most of those never see any use

ashen spindle
#

they did that after some date, idk when they started though

#

also its not known how people get selected to take part in the "random" survey so that might skew it a bit too

#

laptops, if you have a pc but a intel HD only laptop and want to play one or two small games etc.

#

yea

#

still kinda amazed that they had a UI looking like its from 2002, rework it in 2016(?) and it still looks like form 2009

chrome estuary
#

I'm half and half on that opinion.

#

I like it for it's simplicity but there's some shit i'd like to have.

#

idk. It's just that feeling in your gut where you know there's something you'd like to it but not too sure on what it is.

#

I never use anything but the list and box view

#

(first one is what i mean)

ashen spindle
#

ye the others are nice for small libraries, but you cant have options to hide/unhide not installed games etc. so its just a mess for bigger libraries

chrome estuary
#

yeah when you're rocking 300+ games... Shit gets chaotic

ashen spindle
#

like in option3 you dont even see which game is installed or not till you hover over it etc.

#

oh I dont even have steam that big lol, but yea would be nice

chrome estuary
#

I sometimes use the Metro Skin (because it's like the best looking one that's updated frequently)

ashen spindle
#

and imo vanilla experience should not be "ok because mods are there" for basically anything

#

would it really change much though? its not really using much resources

#

ah ok yea for linux it matters more yea

solar hinge
#

Webapp all the things

chrome estuary
#

yeah for the love of god... 64bit for linux.

ashen spindle
#

I think it would only add more issues if you make it a standalone app that has a webapp integrated for the store

chrome estuary
#

Pulling in like 300 fucking packages just to install steam and having to redo your graphics driver and shit is a bitch

ashen spindle
#

nah you dont want normal users to open something else, even if its basically the same, that's bad UX

#

hrm, could work that way maybe

#

never went back to old ui bc I assumed that would happen

#

and for trading I dont really care, there are so many scammers etc. and idiots blame steam and cause steam support so much work, I dont mind "easy" trades not working

chrome estuary
#

This is why I like metro.

#

yea

ashen spindle
solar hinge
#

what did i have to do with the trading convo?

#

ah ok, i was just confused

ashen spindle
#

but having been around enough to see many scam attempts etc. I think making it idiot proof and thus slighty more annoying for reuglar users is something I would do as steamsupport 100% too

solar hinge
#

i was like, shit, i have split personalities

ashen spindle
#

shh they arent supposed to know we are one person

chrome estuary
#

I've never seen Quintosh and Quinn in once place before. Coincidence? I think not.

#

also yeah the 2fa thing sucks balls.

#

i mean yeah it's nice to have because whatever but still.

ashen spindle
#

nah, even 2FA is good. I was an Admin for a decently big Community, it was amazing how far scam reports of successful scams went down after they made 2FA a thing

#

but you usually friend people you trade with to talk about it

chrome estuary
#

I remember once there was a bug that'd let people force you to trade items or some shit and someone I didn't really care for had his entire TF2 item collection taken from him which was like 5000$ in items or some shit.

ashen spindle
#

I dont remember that tbh

chrome estuary
#

fair. I barely remember it and wouldn't remember it if It weren't for him getting fucked over and me laughing about it.

ashen spindle
#

I'm certain he either got scammed or had a keylogger or smth like that

#

yeah thats more recent but still a mess

chrome estuary
#

probably but he still got fucked over and i still enjoyed it.

#

i honestly don't think anyone disagrees with you.

ashen spindle
#

well, now steam market is a thing so they do get some money for them self if scammers sell items on it LUL3D

wheat plume
#

Backkkk

chrome estuary
#

I like steam, I hate some of the shit that happens on steam, but I don't want to leave it because I like the idea of most to all of my games being in one centralized place. Even though I have to install Uplay to play shit like Far Cry... I still prefer it over having 3-5 different launchers to play my games when those launchers may only have 1 or 2 games on them that I want to play whereas steam has 40-50 that I've got installed.

#

If i ever want to play a game that only has Steam DRM on it... I'll grab SmartSteamEmu or something similar.

#

shrug

solar hinge
#

i am Quintosh,

#

secretly

ashen spindle
wheat plume
chrome estuary
#

oh god.

#

typeface fuck up?

wheat plume
#

idk man

chrome estuary
#

Oh I remember that lobster

wheat plume
#

eventhing else is working fine

ashen spindle
#

a monster hunter game added a invincible monster in for pirated version lmao that was also funny

chrome estuary
#

GTA 4 made your character constantly drunk, made cars fully accelerate all the time with no brakes (I think) and then eventually made them just explode when you entered or some shit.

ashen spindle
#

or even better, gamedev tycoon, where you would lose sales bc people pirate your games and players would ask how to add DRM and such ingame LUL3D

chrome estuary
#

Didn't didn't the gamedev tycoon devs actually release that pirated copy to steam on accident at first or some shit?

ashen spindle
#

dont think so

chrome estuary
#

I remember some company made a copy of their game to fuck with pirates but accidentally released it to steam.

#

I remember that.

ashen spindle
#

yea...

chrome estuary
#

I ended up buying it and didn't even know about the pirated version until later.

#

I used to pirate a lot of shit. Now I'm just too god damn lazy to do it.

ashen spindle
#

I'm ok with pirating if you cant buy everything you want and want to see if you like it, then buy it, but tbf steam refunds does cover that now, or if you would buy it on g2a etc. instead of from steam/the devs site

chrome estuary
#

I've bought 2 years of PIA

#

I mean not really?

#

They've still been paid.

ashen spindle
#

g2a is a shit site where I wish they would arrest the owners

chrome estuary
#

just you're not paying as much for the game. and yeah while I've never been fucked over by G2A... I'm not saying it's not possible.

ashen spindle
#

g2a is an amazing place to make money if you stole credit cards lmao

#

the 4 currencies was a good visual representation that I liked

chrome estuary
#

as I said. I've not been fucked over by G2A... But I've not bought much from there either...

ashen spindle
#

its not about that

#

that is one part, the other part is that there is a good chance you bought stolen keys

#

or keys bought with stolen credit cards etc.

chrome estuary
#

yeah it's been forever since i've touched it.

#

If I want a slight deal on a game that's not on sale, I make use of my 10% off from Humble Store. It might only be a dollar or two but hell... It's a dollar or two that I'm not paying.

#

and now I feel like an idiot since I bought 3 copies of RoR2 (not when there was a double key thing. It was the day after and I didn't know about the 2 for 1 thing) and I didn't use humble store.

#

I think there's newer ones that are better.

#

yeah cs whatever

#

ye. They've got an english translated thing (i think.)

#

Yeah. I've done it before when my friends wanted to play a game off my library when i wanted to play at the same time but didn't feel like going offline.

#

The last time I used something like this was for playing a legit copy of Stellaris but had pirated DLC since oh my god paradox dlc why.

reef patrol
#

Oh joy - Another G2A debate full of pro-publisher propaganda 😄

ashen spindle
#

there should never be a G2A debate

#

g2a should be shut down and the people operating it should be arrested

#

nah

pale sigil
#

Ok thats weord, teamviewer is banned on facebook messenger (the link)

chrome estuary
#

okay the greatest thing I can say is "hol' up. I gotta update my keyboard."

pale sigil
#

i said google teamviewer...

#

fuck me google

#

she is 14

#

im going to put adblock on when im on

chrome estuary
#

y'know my friend bitches about ads on youtube and stuff... But won't install ublock origin for whatever fucking reason

#

it makes my head hurt

latent mural
#

a friend complains about ads

#

and he uses two adblock tools

#

doesn't want ublock though

reef patrol
#

I love the Grey market. Sad remnant of s time when. We could resell games.

pale sigil
#

i just dont like g2a

#

lol

chrome estuary
#

I remember when so many people on youtube talked about "Don't use adblockers on my videos because money." and then now no one says that shit.

#

Or you had the rare guy like AVE who said, "Fuck, use an adblocker on my videos. I use an adblocker!"

#

and then went to explain how ads really did fuck all

pale sigil
#

doesn't really make a difference now anyway

chrome estuary
#

that too

reef patrol
#

Mhmm

pale sigil
#

and they are just messy

latent mural
#

google cache usually bypasses the blocks they use btw

#

even bypasses some paywalls

#

sometimes not that easy

#

yeaaa

#

don't wanna bother activating it everytime I need it

#

yea

pale sigil
#

anyone use kodi

plush summit
#

yes

#

what about it

pale sigil
#

have you ever had a case were all sources were 0

#

i think my sisters ISP is blocking Kodi addons

plush summit
#

probably

latent mural
#

changing the dns may already fix it

pale sigil
#

my 14 yo sister using a vpn?...

plush summit
#

dam im happy we have net neutrality here XD

pale sigil
#

im on it via teamviewer atm

pale sigil
#

hmmm using a vpn didn't work

#

scratch that

#

its ips

#

Also cant get a vpn working in Kodi

#

idk why

#

Unicorns are evil

spiral belfry
#

😂 dont deny it, you put that there @pale sigil

plush summit
#

XD

pale sigil
#

i honestly never

fair gull
#

have to say

#

dope pfp

#

would use that myself

pale sigil
#

Fixed it, Kodi is now using my Windscribe VPN lol

#

And installed adblock

#

ublock ofc

#

:p

#

ofc

#

Everyone you know use the wrong ones too?

fair gull
#

ublock origin
drakeLUL

#

why do people still use shitty browser addons

plush summit
#

why do you have a shitty browser

fair gull
#

wha

#

confused³

plush summit
fair gull
#

i dont get why people use adblock and ublock origin

#

i dont use either

zenith sonnet
#

I use Pi-Hole

fair gull
#

same

#

pihole in router dns fixes everything

plush summit
#

pihole doesnt make it look nice

fair gull
#

literally

zenith sonnet
#

And Ublock Origin to clean up some websites

plush summit
#

though its easy to set up

fair gull
#

pihole at least blocks it on any device

#

i have a few phones, 3ds, tvs, pcs

zenith sonnet
#

I use it as an ad-blocker for my phone, too

fair gull
#

and all that

zenith sonnet
#

Always-on VPN to home

#

Nah

fair gull
#

maybe he cares bout adblock

zenith sonnet
#

^

#

Pi-Hole is

fair gull
#

ya

#

and ips

zenith sonnet
#

Which I'm tunneling to as an DNS server

fair gull
#

guess what an ad does when its loading: requesting shit from domains and ips

zenith sonnet
#

Yeah

#

How do I test for webrtc leak?

fair gull
#

this prob

zenith sonnet
#

How do I read that

#

Already found it

fair gull
#

if public ip shows ur home ip at all times if u use your phone then the vpn works

#

if i turn off webrtc i cant configure my router anymore

#

from outside my home wifi that is

pale sigil
#

just dont use the internet

#

there you go

crimson wigeon
#

The internet was a mistake

zenith sonnet
#

Trying to control it was

fair gull
#

Das Internet ist für uns alle Neuland

#

and we're all bots

#

implying you were a mistake

latent mural
fallow bison

noone saw that

#

i thought it was two seperate at first :P

ashen spindle
#

depends on the mods, a lot are very stable

fair gull
#

stealth is so lame when u can stealth pmuch all heists solo

#

me and my friends we always go loud

#

runs great for me unless we put on hydra modifier and i set corpses to not despawn

#

let him die easy as that

ashen spindle
#

just run dodge build and never get hit weSmart

fair gull
#

dodge builds are trash

ashen spindle
#

I only run dodge for deatwish and above or whatever they are called now

fair gull
#

one down is easy done

#

na just dont bring dumbos

#

sure u need medic bags or kits

#

i only play with friends or alone anyway

#

i gave up on public

ashen spindle
#

yeah you cant play with randoms, they are all stupid

"oh I hit level 45, now I can do the hardest difficulty, time to do that"

fair gull
#

sick creek
#

Heres a tip

#

Before backing up

#

Take drive out and put into freezer

#

For like 8 hrs

#

Yes

fair gull
#

na ill put it into a copy station at work tomorrow

sick creek
#

Ofc

#

....

#

LMAO

fair gull
#

hdclone ftw

sick creek
#

Yea but put it in the freezer first

#

Then back it up

fair gull
#

na i use hdclone cause nice interface

latent mural
#

uhh

#

acronis ftw

fair gull
#

and retry on bad sectors

latent mural
#

guess not lol

sick creek
#

ok well good luck lol

latent mural
#

rip drive

fair gull
#

plus hdclone knows what partitions to lock on windows installs so u dont fuck it by copying onto a bigger drive

#

no

#

i mean

#

i really want to reinstall

#

but

#

idk

latent mural
#

I was too lazy reinstalling after switching from skylake to ryzen

fair gull
#

dont want to reinstall all the shit

latent mural
#

still works fine

fair gull
#

since win vista u can swap between hardware no problem

sick creek
#

bro stop

#

pls

#

my heart

latent mural
#

tbh

sick creek
#

fucking alol

latent mural
#

with my freezer

fair gull
#

guess imma order a 2tb drive

latent mural
#

it would likely turn that in the ziplock back in an iceblock

sick creek
#

double bag it then

#

use your brain

latent mural
#

get a toshiba

#

watch the sectors die in minutes

fair gull
#

wait no i can copy the 3tb steam drive to 6 tb

#

and then use the 3tb drive

latent mural
#

get a 12 tb one then

fair gull
#

genius move

latent mural
#

fair gull
#

na

sick creek
#

nothing worse than the Hitachi Deskstar aka Deathstar

latent mural
#

uhh

fair gull
#

seagate if we talk enterprise

#

their hdds last so fucking long

sick creek
#

sometimes

latent mural
#

is HGST still good?

fair gull
#

in consumer they are

sick creek
#

depends on where/when it was mfr'd

latent mural
#

enterprise is entirely differnt from consumer for HDD manufacturers

sick creek
#

i've had good luck with WD Reds

fair gull
#

same

sick creek
#

it's a "nas" drive with special firmware for nas hardware

#

but i'm using it in a ghetto nas

fair gull
#

i sense a trend for my hdds

#

all wd

sick creek
#

lmao hitachi

latent mural
#

currently we only have shittons of 2,5 inch seagate drives and throwaway SSDs at work

sick creek
#

still cant get it right

fair gull
#

ya the hitachi was a birthday present

#

but it ran 3years on time

#

so i wont complain

sick creek
#

hitachi needs to stick to making vibrators... er i mean "personal massagers"

#

🙄

#

you get what you pay for

#

thats just the rule

#

if you pay $150 for 8TB

#

dont expect it to last long

fair gull
#

ya

#

rip my wallet my 6tb drives are 170€ each

sick creek
#

it's like playing the silicon lottery on i7 chips

#

MAYBE you will get one that does 5ghz

#

most likely you wont

zenith sonnet
#

Some of my drives got >40k hours...

sick creek
#

i have drives in my desktop pc from 10 years ago

#

the heads slam against the case every now and then

#

but they still work

fair gull
#

the question is whats the on time

sick creek
#

well i used to run 24/7

fair gull
sick creek
#

so about 5+ years of 24/7

fair gull
#

the fuck did i do to that drive

sick creek
#

flood in thailand

#

generally

#

whenever there's a disaster in thailand (where most drives are made) the prices go up

fair gull
#

dont lie.... drives are made in heaven

#

when mama drive and papa drive do love they produce baby drive

sick creek
#

at least it isnt like 2012 or whatever when 1TB was like $300 because all the factories were basically under water

fair gull
#

guess ill replace my hdd tomorrow

sick creek
#

Disruptions to manufacturing supply chains affected regional automobile production and caused a global shortage of hard disk drives which lasted throughout 2012.

fair gull
#

im throwing in a wd purple

#

#

yes

#

sick creek
#

why not WD red?

fair gull
#

this rig has been running for almost 3 years continuously

#

#

and handles my git shit

#

i dont want to

#

i want them ready

#

#

thats the situation for me

sick creek
#

black is a consumer drive

fair gull
#

purple is enterprise cam

plush summit
#

purple is survalence

fair gull
#

its for cctv

plush summit
#

expensiver

sick creek
#

and?

plush summit
#

black is performance

fair gull
#

ya cause i got a deal from our wd peoples

pale sigil
#

prefer to use a NAS

sick creek
#

yea you can still get a purple with 7200

pale sigil
#

over having HDDs in my system

fair gull
#

we got the purples real cheap

plush summit
#

@pale sigil well

fair gull
#

cheaper than reds

sick creek
#

red doesnt have an RPM rating because its variable afaik

plush summit
#

you need a seperate system to have a nas

fair gull
#

rood i have a nas

pale sigil
#

@plush summit Well ye thats the point

fair gull
#

i also run a raid controller card

plush summit
#

not everyone can do that

pale sigil
#

yes you can

#

its cheap

plush summit
#

like a pi for the nas os?

#

well

fair gull
#

ide man ide

plush summit
#

its kinda hard to set up a nas on a low budget

pale sigil
#

cheap and does a very good job

#

or get older parts and make one

#

You could easily get an older system for less than 100

#

the issue would be the size however

fair gull
#

got an old pc with an i5-4smthsmth

#

and also a second raid card ready

#

and an SFP card

#

gonna build that bish

sick creek
#

basically the difference between red and purple (since they are both designed to be used 24/7) is that red's firmware is designed to handle bursts of data, like a nas would, whereas purple is designed for consistent writes 24/7

fair gull
#

thats what they are designed for

sick creek
#

sure it is

#

the MTBF is going to be higher

#

^

pale sigil
#

Raid cards are technically optional

sick creek
#

consumer drives are like 100,000 hrs MTBF

#

because they arent expected to be on 24/7

fair gull
#

ya

sick creek
#

and the take away here is

fair gull
#

this is why im slowly moving to reds/purples

sick creek
#

MEAN time before failure

#

so you will have drives that get more and less

fair gull
#

more stock maybe

#

1tb is commonly used in prebuild pcs and laptops

sick creek
#

basically

#

black is consumer performance

fair gull
#

gold is more for really specific shit afaik

sick creek
#

its still a 7200rpm drive

#

which is quite normal/average

#

you can get 7200rpm purples

#

and wd red pro is 7200

#

i've been using 4x wd red in my home server and it has never had an issue

#

lol dude

#

FROM their site

#

jesus

#

lol

#

scroll down for RPMs

#

googled it bro

#

why trust a corporate site's sitemap

#

i do web dev for a living

#

search is hard

#

really just black and blue for consumer

#

correct

#

whats the problem

#

???

#

it literally says

#

ALL PRODUCTS

#

their nav is wrong

#

haha

#

like i said

#

dont trust it

plush summit
#

wtf

sick creek
#

whoever designed their site is a special kind of retarded

zenith sonnet
#

60k hours even

sick creek
#

short term or long term? lol

fair gull
#

^

sick creek
#

long term its cheaper to buy enterprise

zenith sonnet
sick creek
#

the upfront cost is higher

fair gull
#

@zenith sonnet its from 1916 as the firmware indicates

sick creek
#

but you will not be replacing it in 1-3 years

zenith sonnet
sick creek
#

i built my media server back when 4TB was like 1 or 2 steps down from max size

#

and now i feel like i am running out of space

#

carrying?

#

its an SSD

#

temp sensor could be wrong anyway

zenith sonnet
#

It's M.2

#

On the board

#

I've just been running games for 3h

sick creek
#

again, define carrying?

solar hinge
#

which program is that?

zenith sonnet
#

Temp is right, and actually good

#

CrystalDiskInfo

#

8.0.0

solar hinge
#

ahh i still have 6

zenith sonnet
#

Magnetic tape?

#

An SSD, probably

fair gull
#

stone tablets last the longest

zenith sonnet
#

You just can't leave it unpowered for months or years

#

It'll eventually lose data

Can you do a speedtest on that 960?

solar hinge
#

with which tool?

fair gull
#

only real good drive i own

#

theyre nice

solar hinge
#

@zenith sonnet which tool to do the speed test :p

#

i which my motherboard could hold more than 1 though

#

i know

zenith sonnet
#

Crystaldiskmark

solar hinge
#

but every adapter is minimal 2

zenith sonnet
solar hinge
#

so if i buy a new nvme drive and use that as my main

fair gull
#

weeb

solar hinge
#

i would need to buy another one to fill up the adapter

zenith sonnet
#

🤷

fair gull
#

download source and code it in

#

compile done

zenith sonnet
#

It says it is...

plush summit
#

and miss all the fun?

#

naaaaaa

solar hinge
#

i think it did spike to 70°C

#

is this a good score?

zenith sonnet
#

That's pretty hot

fair gull
#

tmw the ssd outperforms ramdisks

solar hinge
#

but is the score good?

#

i don't know that much about it :p

fair gull
#

kind of

#

cough

solar hinge
#

i only saw Xeanoa's score about

#

but i think the test is different

zenith sonnet
#

I'm retesting

#

Mine hit 72°C

solar hinge
#

i did close apex while it was testing

zenith sonnet
#

But yeah, 86% full

#

That's at least slightly reducing the score

zenith sonnet
#

That's pretty bad for a RAMDisk

fair gull
#

ikr

#

its all in ram

zenith sonnet
#

Ram is fast

fair gull
#

and ya ram is fast

zenith sonnet
#

Low Latencies

fair gull
#

that its ram

#

and has to be fast

zenith sonnet
#

It's only really interesting for Latency

fair gull
#

so the cpu can grab shit

#

they kind of do

pale sigil
fair gull
#

pls no

#

mustard wins anyway

zenith sonnet
#

Well, it sure got slower

solar hinge
#

which do you have?

zenith sonnet
#

950 Pro

solar hinge
#

but yours has a better score than mine though

zenith sonnet
#

Maybe I can clear some space, run trim, then try again

solar hinge
#

is it your C drive?

zenith sonnet
#

Yeah

solar hinge
#

well i go sleep :p

#

i hope i don't start throwing up during the night again

#

last i was "awake" from 1am to 4pm

#

just puking 😄

zenith sonnet
#

Is there a better NVMe driver than the default Microsoft driver?

#

There's also a Samsung and an Intel driver

#

There's 4, apparently

#

Generic Microsoft, specific Samsung, generic Intel and a generic OFA driver

#

The last one seems to be the best performing, but does not support trim (yet)

wheat plume
#

I changed my panel a lil bit

fallow bison
#

This is not de wae

fickle ore
#

depends which parameter you want to optimize for, bandwith or latency or ISR/DPC count

#

for the driver

fair gull
#

guess ill wait 5hrs for it to copy

#

hell ya

fair gull
#

close call with copying my hitachi

#

hdclone is struggling reading bad sectors

#

third retry is working so far

#

yes

wheat plume
#

I no understand

#

even if i could understand german idk if I could understand whatever that is

fair gull
#

just a summary of the copy

#

quelle is source

wheat plume
#

ah

fair gull
#

ziel is target

#

größe is size of data

#

checkmark i dont need to explain

wheat plume
#

xd

fair gull
#

and the rest is just time and how many sektors there are how many were copied

#

etc

wheat plume
#

i dont know what a checkmark is! 😂

#

is it different in german?> Xd

fair gull
#

wheat plume

LOL jk silly

fair gull

but ya im glad it was able to copy the bad sectors

Why don't you keep a text file containing the links to defile as well as the name of the artist

#

is significantly smaller and should you suffer data corruption you have that text file that you can run through a download manager

theres no free host on this planet that lets me host terabytes of hentai and doujinshi for free

So what am I to do if keys wont work in games and while typing in digital mode ?

reef patrol
#

Games don't work in digital mode for you either? Not sure I understand the issue. 😃

pale sigil
#

What's the game

empty pasture
#

everything

pale sigil
#

Then that's not normal.

empty pasture
#

AND I get get to use my wootility to customize anything i get a blank white screen

#

im on windows 7

pale sigil
#

Can you try and do a restore.

empty pasture
#

I had to revert from windows 10 to windwos 7

pale sigil
#

!restore

vast helmBOT
empty pasture
#

no not helping at all 😦

#

its something with the software it jsut goes blank when it opens i un installed and re instaleld it

pale sigil
#

everytime i add a device to my DMZ my ISP literally sends me letters through the post.

ashen spindle
#

why does your isp even get to know that

pale sigil
#

they have remote access to all routers

#

they can monitor them etc

ashen spindle
#

I guess same here but I don think my isp uses that unless when I call for issues etc.

#

do they sent you a letter to tell you about it or what is in it

pale sigil
#

they literally send me a letter saying not to do it

ashen spindle
#

lol

pale sigil
#

and that its risky etc

#

i once changed my dmz 5 times to test if they send me 5 letters

#

they literally did

#

it was awesome

ashen spindle
#

its only risky if you set it up wrong, the idea is to make stuff less risky lol

reef patrol
#

😂

pale sigil
#

its pointed at my nas atm

#

Bridge their router and use your own.

pale sigil
#

i did it cos i couldn't be assed port forwarding 10 ports tonight

urban wave
#

I need to send my Wooting one keyboard back for replacement.

fair gull
#

glad my isp cant just monitor my router

wheat plume
#

oh?

fair gull
#

well they technically can since i use a router of theirs in bridge mode

#

but

#

all they can see is that its running in bridge mode

#

since everything else is managed by my own ubiquiti router

#

sad they dont give out cable modems anymore

wheat plume

What’s the easiest way to remap keys?

OK, I’ll study it

what's the spring weight in both flaretech switches?

pale sigil
#

!switchchoice

vast helmBOT
pale sigil
#

Full specs here

tight flare
#

ty

#

checked. i can assume the springs are 55g for lack of specification

pale sigil
#

CN is the same as G

#

Switch spring wise

fair gull
#

thats incorrect

#

cause cN is a unit

#

1 cn = 1.0197162129779 g

#

this doesnt matter as much in sub 100cN but just adds up afterwards

wheat plume
tight flare
#

CN is not the same as grams, but i can assume that they have the same heaviness of cherry springs

fair gull
#

like i said sub 100cN its m´pmuch the same

#

so yes

#

technically 55cN is 56g and a bit

#

but that 1g wont really do much imo

tight flare
#

i like between 60g and 70g

fair gull
#

240g is my fav rn

tight flare
#

lol

wheat plume
#

IntelliJ has global menu support now :DD

#

Anyone know how to make IntelliJ only run classes that are linked together with the code?

#

there is an error in a class that has nothing to do with what I want to run and it wont run because it finds that error

#

:/

fair gull
#

rename it so it doesnt have the class file ending

#

shit

wheat plume
fair gull
#

idk java tbh

#

but rename the file

wheat plume
#

i want to run testrecursivetextreversing

#

but its showing errors in a class thats in a different folder

fair gull
#

see thats why u make seperate projects for that

#

love that VS has solutions with multiple projects

wheat plume
#

I thought seperate directory would work

fair gull
#

iirc all gets compiled into one jar

wheat plume
#

;-;

#

ffs

pale sigil
#

the hell, my logitech g hub deleted itsewlf

wheat plume
#

😮

fair gull
#

my life is about to delete itself

wheat plume
#

^^^ wish I could but I have a dependency that needs me to run properly

fair gull
#

im standalone

wheat plume
#

dang

pale sigil
#

im open source

wheat plume
#

oh?

pale sigil
#

rarely ever getting good features

#

or updates

wheat plume
#

i lose features

pale sigil
#

and unstable

wheat plume
#

I have lost the intelligence feature

#

and the motivation feature too

fair gull
#

lets say im dos and everyone else is the newest linux distro

#

now u know how i feel

#

altho i couldnt tell you time and date

#

prob couldnt remember more than 2 lines of text

#

and boot times would be horrible af

wheat plume
#

and everytime we want the date and time we need to tell it back to you so you remember it

fair gull
#

id not be able to remember it for 2 seconds

#

so gl

#

and my ram would be pre occupied with tasks to delete everything

#

and format my hard disk the hard way

wheat plume
#

my java code outputs a string to a JOptionPane Message Dialog

how do I make it so I can copy the output since you cant do that from message dialogs

#

do I need a textArea?

fair gull
#

never did java form shit

wheat plume
#

ah mmkay

#

I am taking a look at my other text reverse class cause that does use textArea

#

trying to see how I cna use that code on this

wheat plume
#

Anyone know how to make Java use your GTK theme?

#

I know it is possible...I did it before

fair gull
#

dont use linux

wheat plume
#

ew

#

xd

#

exactly

fair gull
#

ud have to deal with even more nonsense

#

aka politics and paperwork

#

ok

#

will do

#

planned to do it anyway

timid chasm
#

even more nonsense than 4chan and furries, lul

latent mural
pale sigil
#

Usually because they have them

#

You rarely bin hardware

#

Especially old hardware

#

Yes in a business environment, for example at my work we had loads of ddr1 and 2

#

Because some clients still used old systems

fair gull
#

we threw out all the ddr2 and ddr1 ram

#

we usually setup vms with old os and serial/parallel passthrough now

#

easier to maintain

pale sigil
#

They were using 512mb systems

#

As all their work was done via remote terminals

#

They refuse to upgrade for example

fair gull
#

i refuse to fix really old systems by now

#

yes

#

most of the time yes

pale sigil
#

Upkeep didn't really cost anything

#

If the machine died they always had spares

#

Or if the ram died always had spares

#

Same with drives

#

I hated installing xp on them

fair gull
#

i literally just refused to repair old shit and told them to get a new pc and we can make their old software run

#

usually cause expenses and/or not beng made anymore

wheat plume
#

why is the newer model more expensive?

timid chasm
#

less?

wheat plume
#

yeh less

timid chasm
#

🤷

wheat plume
#

the older one is more expensive......

my friend wants to switch to android
she has an iphone 5

She has 300 to spend on a phone from carphone warehouse

she really loves the samsung icon pack for some reason

what phone would you pick?

latent mural
#

pocophone f1

timid chasm
#

as somebody who has only used a Galaxy S5 Active and Pixel 2 XL I have no knowledge to help

pale sigil
#

I think it's because the brought out 2 versions this time

timid chasm
#

phones are the piece of tech I care about roughly once every 5+ years

wheat plume
#

she can only buy from carphone warehouse

#

so F1 isnt possible

latent mural
#

tf is carphone warehouse

pale sigil
#

wheat plume
#

its an irish website that sells phones that arent locked to a specific carrier

#

i suggested this to her

pale sigil
#

There's 2 A phones this year

#

Also lana crapphone wearhouse is a British company

wheat plume
#

ahh fair enough

#

I know nothing about them I buy phone sonline

pale sigil

They just operate in Ireland too

latent mural

aren't there 3 A-phones still coming?

Avoid it

ayy so the Tab S5e looks pretty good and it's relatively cheap for the kind of tablet it is. I mean sure it's a 670 with 4gb or 6gb of ram but it has a 7k mAh batt, a 10.5" 2560x1600 display for 500$

thats why I order online despite the import fee

@wheat plume just get someone else in another country to buy shit

okay I want a good Android tablet. Something similar to the S5e or the S4 but like... I want to root that bitch.

pale sigil
#

Android and tablets don't mix

#

Always ipads from China

latent mural
#

tbh

#

the tab s4 is really good

pale sigil
#

After a year it'll be dogshit

chrome estuary
#

Yeah I know but I fucking hate apple. I bought dad that new iPad and it refuses to stay connected to the wifi.

latent mural
#

why should it be dogshit?

pale sigil
#

Bevsuse every app and android in general is dogshit when developed over time

#

Nothing is optimized etc

#

I love android but for tablets

#

Ipads is go to

latent mural
#

modern devices are fast enough for everything

pale sigil
#

Only thing apple are good at

#

They aren't though

#

They are fast enough for a while

#

Then it becomes dogshit or unsupported

chrome estuary
#

Apple isn't good at anything. Just in general.

pale sigil
#

Android tablets aren't the go to for tablets for a reason in most cases

#

And why apple have such a huge market

chrome estuary
#

the iPads aren't even that good. I mean the fucker is brand new and can't stay connected to the wifi. It's either the latest iOS or it's the device itself.

pale sigil
#

That's an issue thst needs to be rmsd

#

RMAd

chrome estuary
#

They'll probably tell me to take it back to Sams Club and we lost the receipt... On top of that they'll probably say, "Well you didn't get our warranty."

pale sigil
#

I got my ipad 5 for £220, anything else the same price simply wouldn't have been nearly as good or would in no way last as long.

#

Apple care doesn't require proof of purchase

chrome estuary
#

But isn't Apple Care fucking ridiculously priced?

latent mural
#

it is

#

while you coud get all samsung parts yourself

pale sigil

You get apple care on every device for a year

#

yea

pale sigil
