If you used lower sens I doubt your aim would move much pushing your mouse buttons
frozen anchor
Well if your sens is that twitchy it might be a big part of the issue
It shouldn't matter a ton for aim what mousepad you use
Some pads are nicer for sure but you should be decent on any pad
But I'm not gonna try to force you to change your sens
But it might help your aim some

Hey Devs, would you guys be willing to intigrate whirlwind fx "signal" software which supports html/canvas and Java for their lighting effects. It's open source.

@wheat plume Is there a program that'll dim my second and third display when I have a game running on my primary monitor? 🤔
wheat plume
idk
timid chasm
surely * that exists
but I use discord dark mode and reddit dark mode for that same effect, haha
You could also turn it off 😂
which is a terrible solution but a solution nonetheless
Looks like there is a script for display fusion. May need the paid version for that though
DF definitely has it as a feature and it's not in the free version.

are .dll files purely windows stuff or can be be used by linux apps?
ashen spindle
you dont really think anyone here knows everyhting on your system
fair gull
especially with the 20reinstalls every day
if you wouldnt reinstall your os 200 times per hour we might know what u have installed
ashen spindle
even then, aside formm some generic things idk what they use to compile it, at best I might know the language used for it
fair gull
i mean usually shit done in rust/c can easily come as a bundle gzip that includes dll, so and dylib files
so that 1 file can be used in multiple os after extraction

the scan finished at 493974 files XD
i find it odd it scanned every office marco as potentially unwanted

I dont get why our wifi is so trash, i rarely have problems unless im downstairs yet my sister and mum have constant problems
thick elk
Depends a lot on your location, location of the router and also very important how crap your device is.
Lastly holding it in such a way that it blocks the signal more is a real thing.
thick elk
Just get an extra access point and wire it up.
Some providers give you the crappiest wifi routers.
The one I got from my provider was absolute dogshit on the wifi department. (does not even have 5ghz support)
Just using 2.4ghz in a lot of cases especially with a lot of nabours close by is just asking for trouble.
So what is your setup actually?
pale sigil
Money tbh
Good old isp router
Virgin Media Superhub 3
Which is pooooooooooooooooooooop
thick elk
not the best but looking at it certainly not the worst by isp standards
thick elk
I think we now get to choose our routers here, generally the biggest problem is that providers don't give you the sip credentials, forcing the use of their provided ones if you want the landline.
As for the router I got from my provider it's okay just practically useless wifi.
I can even understand their choice of routers. Not a lot of options if you want wifi, a phone connector and a fsp port for fiber.
My previous one solved this by having a separate fsp modem.
So basically I have a somewhat budget business focussed router which is fine as long as you get your own wifi.
it's still a €200 router though. Just a bad fit to roll out to the average consumer
thick elk
choice as in you can replace the provided one with your own if you want / don't care about your landline / know what you are doing in terms of vlan's and such
pale sigil
So like i literally ahve to use their hardware
Not matter what
DrayTek? you on a business connection?
thick elk
Nope just home fiber, hence it being an odd choice
pale sigil
That is odd
thick elk
they probably didn't want a separate modem for fiber and once you go into routers with an fsp port you will pretty much always be using business routers.
old marlin
got a raspberry running a simple page in chromium kiosk mode
not a lot of data but refreshes like every 5 minutes
but it somehow manages to fill up the ram and then chromium can't load the page anymore 
halcyon moss
sounds like your page has a memory leak
old marlin
I really don't know how
well not my page to begin with
but I heavily dooubt it
and when refreshing that should be a problem
and only ever had the problems on the raspberry
halcyon moss
i think like 10 years ago i made a kiosk thingy with firefox
old marlin
apparently there is a plugin
but I just checked
website actually has a memory leak
too bad that the colleague that made it isn't in house or available today
halcyon moss
hehehe =]
i've had some memory leaks while using jquery as a easy tool, but also manually removing DOM nodes..
You'll learn the hard way that jquery keeps an internal cache with references :p

shadow minnow
https://youtu.be/o8uqC2rOyQA Yeah, typical razer, not mech kb for 100$. Only huge fanboys can buy that...
shadow minnow
But so bad value
old marlin
yea not disagreeing
shadow minnow
You get better features with 50$ Corsair kb
old marlin
the gaming industry mostly hasn't understood that you have to show people stuff to make them want it
shadow minnow
Yeah, like Logitech, still no USB C ...
ashen spindle
anyone here familiar with using udpclients, using .net but problem is probably just general with it
shadow minnow
I do not even care about USB C on phones that much, but not having it on peripherals...
I mean, there are many razer fanboys so many will buy it but still...
Anyone looking at features, will find out that there is no reason to buy it. Sometimes companies can justify but expensive products with special features (analog switches, wireless 1ms connectivity...) but when the product does not even offer any special feature....
old marlin
well
wireless on it's own is a special feature
mice also have more than features
things like
shape
clickfeel
etc
razer nails most of those for mice at least
logitech uhhhhhh
well
tehy have good wireless
ig
ivory geyser
@shadow minnow that thing should be outlawed tbh. It is a membrane with a clicky wire strapped to it.
It is a rip-off.
Absolute at that
shadow minnow
Tbh I wish wooting two LE had wireless connectivity
shadow minnow
Think wooting could get 24 hours out of it
old marlin
they'd need liek a 6000mAh battery
if you compare it to a phone
to even get close to that
frozen anchor
@shadow minnowthat kb is $100? you can get a huntsman tkl for $112 lol
old marlin
if you don't factor in wireless tech power drain
and while plugged you have to go in a low power mode
ivory geyser
Wooting should eventually start setting higher-tier cases for the keeb for those wishing to make their keebs more fancy! 🤔
shadow minnow
Another nice feature would be water resistance, so I must not worry about spilling water
old marlin
to be able to use and charge at the same time
shadow minnow
@old marlin phone is much much smaller
shadow minnow
More place for batteries than in phone
I think there was 5000 mah battery in normal phone
old marlin
yea
factor in wireless
and you need like 10 Ah realistically
to reach 24 hours of use time
way too big
shadow minnow
Wireless is not that much
old marlin
it isn't a lot
shadow minnow
My mouse’s wireless module consumes 2-3 mah
old marlin
on what end
shadow minnow
Mouse end
old marlin
and which mouse
shadow minnow
G703 Hero
shadow minnow
Whole mouse with rgb on consumes less than 10 mah
shadow minnow
They managed to give so much money info development of wireless technology but can not implement USB C lol
old marlin
thing is
what do you need a wireless keyboard for?
also look at when they released the original G403 wireless
shadow minnow
Although, wireless is lot bigger selling point than USB C
old marlin
which the G703 hero is absed on
shadow minnow
@old marlin to have no cables on table
old marlin
you'll still need cables to charge though
shadow minnow
Although I had another idea how to do it
old marlin
I have seen people having problems with conenctions with that
distance is not the problem
but material in the way is
shadow minnow
But still, my mouse works nicely even when 3m away from receiver
shadow minnow
I mean if you will not count material, but distance that it must go to get around table it is like 40-50cm
shadow minnow
Why?
old marlin
no cable that annoys me with dragging
shadow minnow
But yeah, I also like wireless mouse for that, no cables on table is just bonus 😄
shadow minnow
Because Linux tech tips

My GPW is starting to show double click issues on the LMB
@old marlin Any sensible fix?
zenith sonnet
It's probably still warranty, though
old marlin
or swap the switch everytime it starts happening
old marlin
lol
nah
the problem is oxidation in the switches
wouldn't happen if logitech didn't undervolt them too far
but specsheets are hard to read ig
error rate apparently is low enough for them not to fix their most selling mouse as well
zenith sonnet
Is undervolting the only cause?
Cause that's how all of my mice died since like 2001
ashen spindle
potential ice lake issue that leads to crashes
if that is something also in servers, start up jetbrainds IDE and crash amazond servers from a VM

warped dove
This Razer Ornata V2 ... low profile proprietary keycaps on proprietary faux-mech low-travel switches.. so it has the potential to be a low profile keyboard... So they built it into a THICC chassis and elongated the keycap stems making it about 5cm thick such that you basically need a wristrest (which is included and magnetic, wow) But hey, cable routing options
At least the keycaps graphics and layout are good 🙂
ivory geyser
Or you could have bought a 10-15$ gaming membrane keeb from any unknown company with the same effect.

No Razer Chroma though 😉

There is no reason to buy the ornata lol if you want razer go buy a huntsman for $12 more

Nice, windows 10 has forced an update on me and commmited sepakku so now it just bootloops. Whoohow
wheat plume
Ah yes
The most janky OS that's holding on with life support of code written decades ago
lean oasis
windows 10 is literally just parts ripped off older windows releases but with new fancy gui with ads
reef tundra
The big problem is that they stopped testing it thorohlou and virualised all the testing hard ware and mostly rely on the user report to detect en correct bugs
Plus the bloat is real
Managed to fully clash windows by restarting the bluetooth service. That caused it to fully turn off immidiatly. Not even BSOD just off
reef patrol
I postponed my update a month, since it fudged with borderless full screen games.

Can I digital input mapping xbox controller for analog input without wootility?
like reWASD or joytokey
reef patrol
Yes...no.
An Xbox controller doesn't HAVE digital inputs. It's a controller.
What are you trying to achieve exactly?
ashen spindle
you can use those tools to create the same fake controller on a wooting as on any other keyboard but they can't interact with the firmware to save what key is supposed to be what controller button for the analog bindings
but I'm also failing to see the point in using another tool for it?
weary cedar
I playing fifa online4 in korea. this game shoud mapping left Joystict to arrows keys because w,a,s,d is binded for skills so I want mapping right joystick to shift + arrows keys but wootility does not support T_T
ashen spindle
with the current remapping in the beta, you could change where WASD are, so you could use those for the joystick and have the skills elsewhere
weary cedar
is ther no way without change the skills keys?
ashen spindle
You could use the arrow keys without shift, but it needs to be one key not a combo
I guess with the analog SDK you could write something that only takes the analog input if you also hold shift, but you'd need to write that yourself, don't think anyone needed something like that
weary cedar
Thanks for the advice!.. but I don't know how to use analog SDK because I'm not programmer...

TBH amd XT processors are so bad value, + 4% gaming performance (still not enough to beat intel) and over 15% price increase.
thick elk
They have the same msrp, just a lot of outlets comparing retail price to msrp.
It would be pretty reasonable to assume they will be a bit more expensive or rather the old stock will be a bit cheaper at launch.
ashen spindle
many compared it to the prices with the temporary reduced prices amd had for comet lake launch
and till amd are reducing the non xt prices for etailers, any cheaper prices there are only if they want to take the hit to get rid of inventory
zenith sonnet
Wait for benchmarks
thick elk
Effectively I do expect a price difference that would generally favor buying the non xt version at launch, but nothing too dramatic.
zenith sonnet
Up to 4% could be nothing
thick elk
I don't think we need to wait for benchmarks, same arch just higher boosts
ashen spindle
I mean it's 100mhz boost more, we kinda know what that changes
zenith sonnet
They seldom reach max boost clock anyway
thick elk
true, but you can expect them to be about as close to that, just with a 100-200mhz offset
zenith sonnet
Even under 1T loads, only with good cooling
ashen spindle
if you want to buy one, get xt if its the same price, otherwise the non xt, done with the review lul
zenith sonnet
They could also be significantly better binnings, and boost much better than expected
Or just do the same work at -x% power
ashen spindle
the 4% are amd's own numbers so it's not a chance to be any more
prob have to wait for wikichips or similar to take a look at the die and see what changed, to maybe see why we are getting these products
zenith sonnet
If reviewers compare them with their old Ryzen chips from last year summer, might see some bigger differences
ashen spindle
with old results you mean
thick elk
I doubt anything changed on the die, it's probably just a matter of slightly better bins due to a more mature process.
ashen spindle
yeah but better libraries might be visible on the die if it changes stuff a bit
not like it'll be hard to lay two pictures on top of each other to spot differences
zenith sonnet
Heard several times that more recently manufactured Ryzen CPUs hit better clocks than chips sold in the first weeks/months
Reviewers of course still have the old silicon under the hood, even with all the firmware improvement s
ashen spindle
yeah no, if there was a change in stepping or so it would be known
libraries don't change over time so little that it stays the same with better performance
ashen spindle
if nothing changed it also isn't better
like what
you don't over time adjust euv masks or transistors or whatever so that it changes, that would be a newer/different libraries
ashen spindle
at least quote the source smh
old marlin
I wonder if it actually has a source
or if it was just made up
funny to me either way
ashen spindle
digitimes supposedly has leaks for that
but it also contains: "Supply chain confused by AMD, Intel, Nvidia next-gen chip launch schedules"
still some conflicting reports so nobody knows
Lisa also mentioned in public multiple times that zen3 comes this year
and from context it didnt sound like that was for server only
I was about to say from marketing they probably learned they should not mess up stuff, then I remembered the recent pc blunders... nvm that means nothing lmao
as long as ampere comes out as planned im happy though, did want to go to zen3 but my cpu is still not the bottleneck most cases

Swap will still be a lot slower than ram though if only for the latency of using a pci-e slot compared to a memory dimm.

Have fun watching HDRn’t content on your 600 nit screen
old marlin
cause people that consume a lot of videos on their phone get a small screen
neat oriole
I can agree that 750p is weird resolution but LCD isn’t the problem
old marlin
this phone costs over 400 euros
it shouldn't have an LCD
there is a reason the WHOLE industry switched to OLED
even apple
neat oriole
Yeah because it looks fancy on the box
neat oriole
It’s literally a stop gap measure until we get to micro/mini LED
old marlin
yea
with apple?
in like a decade?
they took ages for OLED
like 2 years after samsung had the first OLED flagship?
microLED still is in it's early stages
neat oriole
Not being a beta tester is a decent business decision
neat oriole
Apart from the scuffed colour tuning and that distinctive purple beam down the side yeah
Enthusiasts can go off for days about the SE being a shit phone but for the other 95% of people it’s all the phone they’ll ever need
old marlin
the 95% could get the same experience with a phone half or 3/4 the cost
that is the problem
neat oriole
They literally can’t because only Apple makes iOS devices
Getting a budget android phone to run as smooth as an SE requires more fiddling around than most regular people are willing to do
There’s also apple’s longer commitment to software updates
You spend 400 quid it’s gonna last you 5 years easily
I have an 8 year old iPod touch and it still runs very well
Most people don’t care about hardware and at some point apple’s focus on software just makes them better to the average Joe
And the spec race is pointless when there are other major limiting factors like the battery
And I don’t mean shoving a 6000mah battery into every phone I mean a lighter, more energy-dense battery
I personally think the sweet spot for phone displays is 90-120hz @ 1080p, and proper 1080p RGB not some weird 1080p RBGB. Anything more the difference is negligible and just drains more battery
old marlin
aka buying pocofone f1 and starting it?
2010 was a decade ago, you gotta let go of the belief that cheap android means bad at some point
old marlin
next dick move by apple
apple watch uses eSIM
and allowed all eSIMs before
now they kick out anyone that isn't officially partnered with them in germany
so you can use Telekom, O2 and Vodafone in germany
reef patrol
That sounds... illegal.
old marlin
apparently they legitamize it by only offereing the eSIM in iPhones as a deal
reef patrol
eSIM or not Apple chooses who they make preferable deals with. But they can't block other Telecoms from using the hardware once out of contract.
old marlin
and the provider on the phone and the watch has to be the same
best part was that the change wasn't documented in any way
bad part is
that will impact german provider market
which already is fucked
vagrant marsh
@old marlin i got a pocophone f1 atm. Thing still suits me just fine.
Sure, it doesnt have rgb like modern phones, but i think hardware has reached a point where it is strong enough.
shadow minnow
What modern phones aside from gaming ones have RGB? 😄
vagrant marsh
Is german layout much different from standard one?
old marlin
a bit
fair gull
this us more iso vs ansi
fair gull
are they tho
old marlin
yes
fair gull
how
old marlin
yea
fair gull
also different
fair gull
third level being Alt gr or strg + alt
gotta love german printing mainly for having a dedicated string key
:kappa:
thx discord
ashen spindle
I switched to ansi untill I learned of ISO international
fair gull
no
old marlin
I though it was steuerung
fair gull
it is
old marlin
lol
well exact layout with those PCBs is customizable
they do QMK and afaik also VIA
and VIA is GREAT
old marlin
keyboard firmware
VIA runs on top of QMK
has a GUI configurator software
that is capable of live changes
so no reflashing etc required
fair gull
lame
old marlin
lol
yea
through hole engineering
gotta code the firmware by hand with through hole components
old marlin
I actually found an M0110A in US layout
150 euros
on kleinanzeigen
well price is reasonable considering it is new
reef patrol
Neat
ashen spindle
idk what it's from, but game studios don't have every single cpu so they only have min/rec specs for what they can test on
thick elk
Those minimum specs are never that accurate
ashen spindle
what even is that for

@wheat plume mi control center randomly stopped working
timid chasm
alot of times they are even 30 fps reqs
wheat plume

olive narwhal
My wooting keyboard stopped working. One time, my keyboard stopped working, so after unplugging and plugging it in a few times, it came back to life. That used to happen a lot. Some days ago the same happened, the lights were working but the keyboard wasn't. Funny thing is that when i change the usb port to be next to the one of my mouse, my mouse also stops working. Any ideias on how i can solve this?
ashen spindle
post it in #archived_helpdesk_for_keyboards
vagrant marsh
I think i fucked up
I updated my bios. Gigabyte aorus. Added support for the xt cpu's. Now i got memtest86 running here
Im...not sure? I mean, i did had memtest on the usb but i formatted it before ive put the bios flash on it
guess the format didnt stick?
weird
well, whatever the reason, its updated to the latest bios now

Do you think there is any custom PC company that would let you get the PC without windows so you can save money?
frozen anchor
probably only the pc company called building it yourself...
wheat plume
I want to do that but I can't find a WiFi + Bluetooth card online I could use that is definitely Linux compatible
frozen anchor
i think ordering a prebuilt would be even more risky than building your own and trying to find a good wifi/bluetooth card
crimson wigeon
Don't most motherboards have at least wifi built in nowadays? And BT could just be a generic USB dongle
nova carbon
i think the biggest issue for lana is the linux compatibility
fair gull
@wheat plume theres tons of companies that build pcs without installing an os
buf idk about the wifi and bluetooth crap
crimson wigeon
Eh, my motherboards built in BT works fine, as did a random shitty dongle 10+ years ago or so, Wifi is slightly trickier but I think support for that is good now as well
.. if you want to be sure get Intel Wifi
I think I have to RAM my P30
fallow bison
zenith sonnet
You can change refresh rate in task manager
crimson wigeon
Eh you can mash F5 to make it refresh pretty fast
reef patrol
Definitely sped up and matched to the video afterwards. Kind of missing the point though 😄

after another week working with 5G, networking and linux, my comment to that combo: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH
wheat plume
empty wren
HDR plays a part in that as well as the auto white balance
The auto white balance may be correct I am not sure, but I do know it can correctly capture snow.
wheat plume
I cant tell what one is more color accurate cause I havent seen if the ceiling is meant to be dark or light
empty wren
Well which do you like
Because for the most part that is what almost goes on
And even if one of these is 1:1 to real life someone will edit it for visual reasons.
Though I would say better to go with the iPhone here it may be overexposed but you can lower the iso without losing details if you did vice versa on the pixel in this case.
wheat plume
I assume you can make a private repo on gitlab that only you can see?
ashen spindle
github yes, gitlab, I mean you can host your own server, you think that would force people to make it open?
wheat plume
so I cant make them private?
ashen spindle
?????
fair gull
this is gitlab free
which is basically
github
but with less CI
and unlimited private collabs
plus u cant do multiple code reviewers per PR
thats 4$ a month
wheat plume
oo its the exact same settings as github
fair gull
ya just that it locks the important shit behind a paywall
and gives u the unimportant stuff for free
and it has aids UI
ashen spindle
basically, if you dont plan to host your own server or are using features from the paid options, I dont really see a reason to not use github
wheat plume
literally use github to store my code
ashen spindle
yea so why go away from github for no reason lol
wheat plume
I wanna see what gitlab is like
pale sigil
GitHub is plenty for most people tbh
pale sigil
Everyone is owned by evil people
fair gull
sadly cant get away from it
cause this one project i work on still uses it
otherwise id have ditched it long ago
ashen spindle
I mean, there is also SVN, mercurial, Alienbrain etc. but why care about any of them when you barely even use github
ashen spindle
I commited updates to both project im working on via svn today :p
yeah trunks are shit
still better than the other project with external people that don't use versioning at all....
ashen spindle
thankfully not
because the project was sent to people working on it so many times, some email will always have a recent version
fair gull
inb4 accidentally published on google +
fair gull
lets revive it
crimson wigeon
why not mirror your repos on all the hosting services
wheat plume
why not do version control locally by copying the entire project each time you need to modify it
reef tundra
Just get a domainname and vps(renting a part of a server and do what ever you want with root permissions). Then you can host a git server on it and reach it from anywhere and having full control over the git server. And while you having it it can also be an email server, vpn, search engine, dns, website, minecraft. It is also quite cheap to get it set up the most basic can be 1 euro per month but keep the limitations in mind. Mostly the transfer limit, storage size, memory are the biggest factors. But there are good options around 10 to 20 euro per month range. Plus the big advantage is that it isnt owned by microsuck trying to spy on everyone and you have a server that can do a lot more. And access can be completely controlled. (ssh + gpg_keys + whitelist - login = no password login while those not on the list cannot enter). Some just grab a raspberry pi and open a port to be able to meme away.
ashen spindle

just pick your poison and enjoy it
i got something for that
nothing really great honestly
Varjo but not many people will buy it because it is starts at $5000 but that is for the latest version and the price has come from $10,000 to $6000 and now to $5000 on each newer vesion

@wheat plume you use miui right? I kinda want to get the Poco F2 Pro

@wheat plume you use miui right? I kinda want to get the Poco F2 Pro
@chrome estuary I have a Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S, but I do not use MIUI
Custom roms FTW!
wheat plume
F2 is too new rn I imagine
chrome estuary
probably
wheat plume
MIUI 12 is really nice though
and if you get a new icon pack from their themes app its even more beautiful
Battery life doesnt seem as good as 11 though, mostly cause of how many damn animations there are in the OS
chrome estuary
It's either gonna be the RedMagic
Poco F2 Pro
or if there's another phone/whatever I find that looks worth it.
wheat plume
I really want to get a note 9 lite
pretty damn great for 260 euro
but id have to check about the custom rom community to see how many there are
chrome estuary
I own the Galaxy Note 9 and it's nice but I've got a N960U1 so I can't do custom roms.
wheat plume
exynos?
chrome estuary
The Poco F2 Pro is 865 and so is the RedMagic
wheat plume
probably the most popular apart from the redmi note 7 and note 5 pro
chrome estuary
I love how short of a stay the 855 and 855+ had
