The Clap Emoji is an ideogram depicting two hands clapping which is often used online to depict the "ratchet clap," the practice of clapping one's hands between words to add emphasis in a condescending manner.

@cosmic mulch Since you seem to be looking at new keyboards, here's a good review of the hunstman : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAPTPMtDtHg
tl;dr : good for typing if your hands hover while typing, not great if you're the kind that uses a wristrest as the actuation point is way high and you'll keep hitting the switches
also possibly bad for gaming for that same reason
errr, the version being reviewed is literally ISO TKL
there's more to the internet than just amazon
you live in germany
that's like the best place to find electronics in europe
with the biggest amount of stores
still valid
ashen spindle
are you sure you want UK and not US layout?
cedar glen
you can even find azerty kbs in germany
ashen spindle
interresting, first person I know that prefers the @ and "" switched
yeah I know, terrible spot imo haha
switchung to us from german layout was the best choice I made
cedar glen
well french layout has the " and ' as 3 and 4, but at least for @ it's alt gr + 9, which is easier to reach
i would've gone for UK layout but it actually seems to not be as suited as international US ANSI for any extra letters
fair gull
the @ and " places switched make virtually no diference
i use ctrl + alt instead of altgr anyway
cedar glen
@cosmic mulch yeah maybe you should have watched literally any video about DKS before buying
👀
fair gull
i mean
there is daddy remapping around the corner
and then u can actually make the keyboard do whatever
and it can do altgr
ashen spindle
or do what I do, use wincompose or a similar tool for extras keys and such
so caps+o is ö for me
fair gull
literally prints @ in de layout
woops
idk why everyone thinks altgr is a modifer
its not
ashen spindle
fn+ media controls not working or what? also caps was just an exmaple, you can use any key for that, also it would still be possible to use that combo for volume
what I do is I use it for mobas, on the way down I see the targeting, on bottom out I use the skill, so I basically have instant casting but the option to see the area
fair gull
i mean technically the wooting can do the light press thing tho
just gotta take into account that it would be self coded and with shit tons of delay
bronze rose
I want that remap feature 😦 the alpha state is no a problem cause now some stuff are failing anyway xD
fair gull
even then expect added 100-200ms delay
and i think smth like this is more feasible on lekker anyway
since you can use the full travel distance
so there is actual light presses without 160g springs
if you actually check out the physical range of where analog is read
its a bit small for smth like you wanna do imo
ashen spindle
well there most likely will be one, just not very soon
thick elk
I have not heard anything but I would expect a general revamp of the keyboard, not just a lekker version of the existing wooting one.
What certianly doesn't help is that full size still sells best.
I have been told by someone of the wooting staff that the wooting two outsold the wooting one by quite a bit at least
reef patrol
Judging by who posts on /r/mech yes. There are lots of people who buy the same stuff 😄

I find it more ergonomic on the left, then agian I use my mouse on the right and I am left handed

bribing yet another benchmark site into making "adjustements"

From what I read it actually is not as bad as it seems
cedar glen
@prisma crag it's a before/after pic, on the same category
thick elk
ryzen 3000 was over valued by the test and ryzen 2000 was udervalued
Maybe a bit of an overcorrection but nothing too extreme
cedar glen
the new test presents the ryzen 3 4300U as the strongest single thread perf AMD cpu
I find that hard to believe
thick elk
4300u because there is litterly 1 sample and its not even out yet
basically that's just a case of bad data
ashen spindle
also the guy who posted that is change someone I recognize for being quite biased against intel...
thick elk
also some report on the adoredtv website: https://adoredtv.com/do-not-freak-out-about-passmark-changing-its-cpu-ranking/
thick elk
I think some studies pointed to dvorak at least didn't show much of an improvement over qwerty. I don;t think it will matter that much in actual typing speed and would be a major hassle to learn. Colemak is supposedly easier but you would still have to learn a new layout and deal with everything that does not have the layout.
I wouldn't recommend it personally, the time would be better spend training typing speed on qwerty.
qwerty wasn't designed to be slow typed per se just so keys used together often in english are not next to eachother. This may even have some benefits for motor skills. The matter is probably more one of bottlenecks where moving your finger probably is not the biggest one. Most people have a lot of room for improvement in typing and starting from scratch with a new layout is not very time efficient. It may help a bit in the long to switch but not that much.
At least not enough for people who's job it is to type fast and correct for a living to be retrained.
bronze rose
One thing that need to be taken into considerations with this layout is egonomic not speed
golden gulch
My productivity is limited by brain and not typing speed. 🤤
bronze rose
From colemak page: Your fingers on QWERTY move 2.2x more than on Colemak. QWERTY has 16x more same hand row jumping than Colemak. There are 35x more words you can type using only the home row on Colemak.
And my point on ergonomics is that you need to reduce the risk of repetitive strain injury and for that Colemak is better
thick elk
I doubt the effect is as big as using an ergonomic keyboard though
bronze rose
If you use and ergonomic then perfect is better than a non ergonomic one
And without the usual ergonomic physical keyboard form, rearranging the keys in a different order can help
cedar glen
somewhat unrelated but on my phone I use azerty just to have a bloody extra button on that second row
thick elk
Still even if ergonomics is the concern learning a new layout is probably a bigger hurdle than getting a different keyboard.
Granted switching the layout and learning a new layout is less of a financial investment.
cedar glen
dunno why qwerty layout wastes it
thick elk
I can modify the layout of my keyboard app at will but I never bothered. Hmm a dedicated ctrl would be useful (termux)
bronze rose
Which keyboard and app its?
thick elk

her class average for every exam and project is about 45%
even the top people in the class get really low grades in hers
there are 4 people who got above 80 in every other subject and they all got 40-50 in her exams and one of them got below 35
you need 40% to pass

is this the girl they cant replace because of laws?
wheat plume
she is at the point she needs to intentionally give people 40% because if she didnt then too many people will fail at once and the college will need to do something about it

it was meant for java plebs to transition easier
wheat plume
there is not that much different in terms of writing code structure between java and c# for me
other than method names begin with capital letter but not in java and also handling data types is stress in c#
ashen spindle
method names dont care about capital letters, thats a stlye guide thing not a language feature
fair gull
well

the net framework stuff follows it
@wheat plume doesnt for me
altho it does suggest it

ashen spindle
just put your hard drive in ram slot, both is memory 🙂
wheat plume
XD
yup
there is a benchmark program for testing graphics cards called Furmark
it is so intense and causes so much stress to the GPU that there is a risk the GPU catches on fire or other physical damage to it
GPU makers actually throttle the GPU if they detect Furmark running on the system
ashen spindle
while it is basically a power virus
it doesnt actually catch on fire unless something is actually broken on the cooler or so
and I've never heard amd or nvidia looking for furmark to throttle cards
wouldnt make much sense since they could just update the tool to run differently or so
wheat plume
hmmm
zenith sonnet
Yesn't
It hasn't really been an issue for a long time now
Nvidia certainly did some detection stuff to see if Furmark is running and more aggressively limit their cards. Iirc that was Kepler/Fermi era?
I think AMD did too, but much less aggressively so
Nowadays, power delivery is so sophisticated, that it's not needed any more
Cards don't just have thermal limits, but also all kinds of current, voltage and power limits
Nvidia in particular has very stict power limits, that can't be edited like AMDs
ashen spindle

if you use a mac to not run mac software that sounds like more points to that not being great?
wheat plume
if you want to use some windows apps you cant use on mac then bootcamp is great
you cant do the reverse at all on windows
ashen spindle
ok but mac allowing other stuff because mac is shit doesnt make it less shit
wheat plume
if you switch to windows and still want to use final cut pro or whatever you just fucked yourself unless you do GPU passthrough on a VM
ashen spindle
like if the good thing about a product is that you can ignore it and use something else, that's not how I would describe something I call good
wheat plume
is it hard to install bootcamp?
ashen spindle
no clue I never touched a mac
ashen spindle
ok but even moreso it then is just saying "hey we make it really easy to use something else because we know our stuff isnt great"
obviously exaggerating, but saying you can run windows as an argument why mac is better than the windows solution is a bit weird
wheat plume
it doest give you the windows iso
or activation
you need to do that yourself
but once you have the iso you select it and it does the rest for you
ashen spindle
okay but then you do it and use windows, so I still dont get the point
like the only thing this shows, is that macs only exists because peopel cant do it the other way around because you cant get macOS iso files that easily
ashen spindle
so we come to the conclusion that comment doesnt make much sense

btw pro tip as a user of this cable the plug is not safe for phones
it just jams in there
you will probably get it stuck and have to pull it out with tools
breaking the plug in the process
sudden glacier
but if you don't plan on removing the plug it's rlly nice if you buy it for multiple devices
i charge my phone, PS4 controller, and headset with the same cable
they all have a plug stuck in their charging ports

btw that cable contains both super charge and data
depending on the orientation of the connection between wire and plug
LED faced up is super charge

self reflection can be dishonest
because what's real and what we want to believe don't always align

lethal wasp
well send a land whale to hunt and see how it goes
timid chasm
sure professionals have vetted it but it can still be subjective, esp since we evolve over time and things like BMI has changed

https://www.anandtech.com/show/15625/intel-micron-sign-new-3d-xpoint-wafer-supply-agreement ok this makes even more sense as to why they axed cooper lake "low end"
“Intel is losing money in its NVM Solutions Group (NSG) because 3D XPoint is proving very unprofitable to produce. By my estimate Intel lost about $2 billion on 3D XPoint in each of 2017 and 2018, and $1.5 billion in 2019.”
no cooper lake no option to support what loses them money

ashen spindle
it was clearly the right move, but with covid they now have a way to cover it up under the news with that and spin it as something positive "despide the pandemic we pushed forward and deliver 10nm instead of delaying cooper" blah blah
and now that ARM entered server market with 80 core cpus intel is in big trouble in server space
old marlin
yup
ashen spindle
if they dont take this chance they have by reyling on the money they have, the only blue thing in servers in the future is the optane headspreader lmao

do we have any idea what the actual ps5 will look like?
pale sigil
Only the dev kit
dapper ridge
which is ugly as shit
ashen spindle
dev kit look makes sense as it allows to stack them and still have airflow
so its a good design for a dev kit
great now we have retards making conspiracy theories about corona spreading where 5G is used because they dont understand what 5g is
maybe we should just get wiped out
ashen spindle
well the more common scenario is dev offices where a couple of them are stacked ontop for dev/testing and you move them if someone else needs them etc.
tmk rack mounting isnt really needed
ashen spindle
I was confused about what I saw on my timeline, was a tech guy mentioning how someone else posted about that crap, someone linked it in the comments but the original post was deleted
halcyon moss
ah twitter
ashen spindle
yea from some big-ish instagram influencer
halcyon moss
searching for 5g and corona is resulting in lots of fun
dapper ridge
5g helps transmit the corona faster
halcyon moss
uhuh
ashen spindle
well yeah, back in my age without those fancy "computers" we didnt have as many virus outbreaks, yet I always hear how they get a virus so easily, no wonder 5g spread it more /s
halcyon moss
we got radiation poisoning from the crt screens
omg ppl are nuts
I agree Quintosh, maybe we do deserve to be wiped out.

they're what now?

so... I am finally breaking down and installing my Deep Cool "silent" fans.
should I use the 7V cables?
and should I turn off my PC before doing it? x3

No
This is my friends new phone
We couldn't install rom last week
Because miui was like nope
You need to be logged in for a week
If I was to get a second phone
I'd not get this one
The corners are too round ;_;
I don't ;_;
I wish I had
It's on my PC so it's still going strong !! Manjaro plasma
At my student house
Got a cheap ass one
Ah
I can't ;_;
I don't have Elisa installed because I stream music now anyway
But I want to try it for a while I just need to get a music collection downloaded
Yeah I know
Welp
ashen spindle
have you asked her nicely to check again?
wheat plume
Yah
But also it says my device isn't certified in the play store
I had magisk installed before on another rom and gpay worked
It seems the March security patch fucks with shit
There are lots of people complaining about it
It's strange
It passed this
cedar glen
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
wheat plume
Yes :')
wheat plume
Magisk best way to root
You just flash the zip file
I think it's the rom's fault though
It's not play store certified
ashen spindle
https://www.khronos.org/news/press/khronos-group-releases-vulkan-ray-tracing the day before we get ps5 specs hmmm
wheat plume
no it doesnt
pale sigil
And this is why I can’t be assed rooting
pale sigil
Why does it matter
wheat plume
and to install kernel managers
and other root apps, like the file manager to change build prop and boot animations
wheat plume
my friend tried to change rom because the default camera on the one we installed wasnt working right
I told him to get the gcam port
he already had installed another at that point
one that I know for sure has an even shittier camera built in
wheat plume
and today I had to do it for my friend
cause i doesnt know how to
Also, TWRP doesnt install but orangefox did
Orangefox is better in so many ways though
wheat plume
Ffs
wheat plume
Ok
Fixed the root issue
Now the fucking bank doesn't support NFC payment -.-
They really are back in 2005 with their fresh new windows XP installed
wheat plume
Oooo
3 are really really killing it with upgrades recently
Usually I never got above 3mb/s in this house
fair gull
@wheat plume yes magis forces a reset on any phone with a decent rom cause of encryption
halcyon moss
Apparently Magisk isnt effective anymore when you flashed the bootloader. root hiding still works
wheat plume
@fair gull never had that happen
fair gull
literally always happens when u flash a bootloader
lethal wasp
why is the huntsman TE still double the price of the huntsman
wheat plume
Hmm
I installed orangefox recovery from inside TWRP
I didn't lose any data
@fair gull it happens when you unlock the bootloader but that only needs to happen once
fair gull
guess whats part of flashing
and guess what people usually dont do cause they dont want the dumb unlocked bl message on a phone that is brand new and doesnt even have magisk support
and guess what happens when they like magisk but have 500gb of data
wheat plume
Well
When you install a new rom
Everything is wiped except internal storage
So all you photos and music and things are still there
fair gull
yes everything includes apps
fair gull
ya and i lose all the progress
gg
u cant assume all apps having cloud backups for settings/progress
wheat plume
They don't :/
fair gull
and thats the shit part
i cant even backup MY app data on MY phone before i wipe it or smth
halcyon moss
When you unlock the bootloader, you have to wipe everything. this is a security precaution.
wheat plume
You can take backups with orangefox
halcyon moss
on most phones
fair gull
how the shit would u unlock the bootloader then
wheat plume
If it's stolen
They would already have connected it to PC and copied everything from it
fair gull
its literally also blocked in settings and they couldnt do the settings cause phone is locked
@wheat plume most phones prompt for it behibd the lockscreen
so again lockscreen would literally save u from getting anything stolen
and FRP saves ur phone from being useful
wheat plume
I know
On xiaomi you have to have an authorised mi account and use their unlock tool on PC to unlock your phone
Authorised as in you used miui for longer than a week
And was logged into your account that whole time

16gb no surprie
old marlin
more than enough tbh
dapper ridge
cough
wheat plume
16gb ram?
dapper ridge
nvme
ashen spindle
also I guarantee you 95% of pc people also don't know what it actually brings aside from load times
old marlin
16gb GDDR6
wheat plume
oo
cedar glen
not having 64gb ram in 2020
dapper ridge
is that gpu or system ram?
dapper ridge

cedar glen

ashen spindle
its an APU so both use it
dapper ridge
was about to ask if it is APU
cedar glen
amd apu
ashen spindle
yesn't
wheat plume
wat
ashen spindle
no same apu
well almost same
zen2+rdna2 for both, rdna2 was developed for consoles
dapper ridge
ic
old marlin
what?
why does the flash controller handle loading priority in that case
wtf
the engine should do that already
dapper ridge
are we not on gen 5?
old marlin
nah
ashen spindle
gen5 coming to servers next year most likely
cedar glen
I was going to ask if anyone had a link to this reveal meme then I realized that even though we're in confinement and I have nothing to do, I still have something better to do than to care about this garbo
reef patrol
DDR4 for system RAM. GDDR5/6 for GPUs
ashen spindle
xbox has 16gb gddr6 for everything
old marlin
yea but it is split differently
ashen spindle
yes
ashen spindle
10gb optimized for gpu
old marlin
also some kiiiinda weird configutration
ashen spindle
2.5 for OS, 3.5 for standard memory
reef patrol
Suddenly sounds like a lot less RAM 😄
old marlin
which apparently gives a good amount of speed
reef patrol
I mean your average "high end" gaming PC has 24GB of RAM in total.
reef patrol
8GB on something like a 2080 and then 16GB for system. But also more overhead of course.
dapper ridge
I have 32gb
old marlin
without a lot of overhead
dapper ridge
never needed more than 16
ashen spindle
12 of that are needed for chrome, which you dont open on console
old marlin
like 16gb total is good enough for this case
reef patrol
Yeah I'll never go back to traditional consoles again.
The Switch serves a unique purpose as an exclusion 😄
pale sigil
its PSP SD cards all over again
reef patrol
Those received adaptors fast though
If MS go fully proprietary I give it months before someone creates knockoff ones using conventional SSD chips
Just look at Linus' latest video. 1TB NVME the size of an SD card almost.
Not the best performance, but MS can't cheat science either.
ashen spindle
yes thats old news
reef patrol
But honestly... I think MS have learned from their mistakes. The XBone didn't have any proprietary storage as I recall.
Both Xbox OG (memory cards which were just USB sticks with a weird pinout) and 360 (Click on external harddrive, which was just a generic 2,5" in a shell)

ray tracing exists before nvidia even existed
nvidia just made a meme out of it with RTX
ashen spindle
ray tracing exited in like the 70s already
dapper ridge
ic
reef patrol
AMD are coming with hardware cores for RT yes
ashen spindle
nvidia just has the first gpu with raytraycing acellerating hardware
old marlin
not even that
cedar glen
also a vega 56 beat RTX cards in dealing with actual RTX on the crytek engine
old marlin
they are just the first with "real time raytrtracing" optimized hardware
ashen spindle
but that is not an RTX feature in cryengine
cedar glen
it's RTX with a different name
ashen spindle
its raytraycing yes but not the way the RT cores can be fully made use of
old marlin
direct raytracing pls
cedar glen
just doesn't have a (c)nVidia next to it
ashen spindle
no its much more different
fair gull
the cryengine has RTX raytracing?
fair gull
ya was about to say its news to me
ashen spindle
yes also nothing new
old marlin
hello half life
dapper ridge
I thought ray tracing was graphics
ashen spindle
amd did it with true audio a while ago but it never took off
no its just math, finding the way a line takes
fair gull
its just that graphics raytracing with real time reflections is a ton of maths
did i say a ton? i meant a fuck ton
cedar glen
they're just trying to use the word raytracing a lot because nvidia made it cool
they'd say the controller has raytracing if they could, for marketing
ashen spindle
it doesnt really matter if you call it raytracing, raycasting or whatever, it's always been the same thing
fair gull
Ray casting is the use of ray–surface intersection tests to solve a variety of problems in 3D computer graphics and computational geometry.
literally the first line
3D
fair gull
yes?
old marlin
as 3D as wolfenstein 3D is
ashen spindle
it can be used for 2d but not limited to 2d
fair gull
and are both used in 3d and 2d
ashen spindle
you just usually use tracing if you make it bounce and track it, casting if you care about what you hit, but it's just used interchangeably
old marlin
I mean you oculd use it in 3D
to make a raster in layers
for ray tracing
no wait
nvm
I mean
then normal 3D graphics usually already do raycasting, no?
ashen spindle
yes
old marlin
unless you use an orthogonal camera
ashen spindle
just not realtime usually
old marlin
don't you need it to cull correctly etc
ashen spindle
hardware cant do it in >1fps
old marlin
I odn't mean tracing
pale sigil
im falling asleep
old marlin
I mean the "refelctionless" casting
fair gull
ray casting is smth u dont do with lights either in realtime
old marlin
@pale sigil then don't watch the ps5 stream lol
dapper ridge
how long is this
fair gull
reflectionless? global maps? cube maps?
old marlin
yea
fair gull
precompiled
old marlin
not really reflections for that case
fair gull
well they are
old marlin
kinda
old marlin
I mean I own powerful RTX hardware now
but it just doesn't deliver enough benefit in 99% of cases to even be a considerations
fair gull
well its fairly new and most engines dont natively support it
plus many people dont know how to use it in the indie world
plus its only a benefit to rtx owners
and no one else really
but for rendering and ai they are super useful
ashen spindle
chicken/egg, its out now so we will see more
fair gull
or repurposing rt cores for password cracking
ashen spindle
latest unity version finally has rtx stuff built in to a degree for example
old marlin
current hardware is too weak for most use cases anyways
makes the chicken/egg problem even bigger
fair gull
ngl the games that do have rtx look better with it enabled
