i use icloud for my stuff

wheat plume
#

the normal FE can link to iCloud?!

misty pier
#

yeah

wheat plume
#

today I learned

misty pier
#

you need to install icloud, but it works with it

fair gull
#

really hope the design doesnt stay this weird

#

plus it pmuch crashes when i try accessing raidrive shares

#

its dead

misty pier
#

f

fair gull
wheat plume
#

it is still very WIP

#

Well fuck.

#

Guess I'll have to try and cheat the system again.

ashen spindle
#

from what we know, AMD should be selling a lot of stock too, unlike nvidia where FE cards are a are amongst low stock even lol

old marlin
#

rip xbox in europe

#

25% price increase

ashen spindle
urban lynx
#

let's see if it stays that way with a change in government

reef patrol
#

Playstation too surely.

old marlin
#

prob not

#

nope

#

US sanctions

reef patrol
old marlin
#

so until they drop sanctions against boeing that won't change

#

and the EU has a lot less to loose than the US

#

with sanctions

reef patrol
#

Well fuck em - They pre-brick consoles anyhow.

old marlin
#

actually quite a lengthy list

#

CPUs are not on it btw

#

already checked

ashen spindle
#

will hurt the most in the release/pre-holiday sale but I imagine biden only has interest in keeping sanctions up against china not the EU

old marlin
#

15% on planes

#

25% on the rest

#

cranberries are on there dafoe

urban lynx
#

any word on importing clothing stuff?

old marlin
#

doesn't look like it

timid chasm
#

I'm sure yalls leggings are fine 😛

ashen spindle
#

thats a lot of food holy

timid chasm
#

why they gotta fuck over Oceanspray?

old marlin
ashen spindle
#

LOL

#

well there is somet clothing on there

#

handbags, purses bags and cotton

timid chasm
#

oh so that's like heavy equipment with a bucket?

old marlin
#

yea

#

oen might call it an excavator

urban lynx
#

like a shovel digger?

old marlin
#

yes

timid chasm
#

what a fucking title though

#

basically any form of it is covered I guess

ashen spindle
#

I had some super mechanical hand shovel in mind lol

urban lynx
#

also why handbags, purses and cotton stuff? AVerySadPanda

timid chasm
#

That's what I wanted it to be, honestly. Some insane shovel I've never seen

ashen spindle
urban lynx
timid chasm
#

but does that rotate 360? Its got stairs in the way if they're attached

#

maybe standalone stairs

urban lynx
#

i think these got added later on

#

like when you put up old machines like steam engines somewhere without intent to really move it as a museum piece

#

cause this one does have like tracks underneath

ashen spindle
urban lynx
#

also, it kind of strikes me as oddly specific to add a sanction to these machines

#

like where do they get used?
surely not even as universal as, let's say, a plane

timid chasm
#

I live in a beach town with beautiful women. Constant ball taxing

old marlin
#

nah

ashen spindle
#

probably based on what gets exported a lot to the US etc.

old marlin
#

regular diggers

#

they can rotate 360 degrees

timid chasm
#

I got Canada as a result a lot when googling the shovel title but who knows

vagrant marsh
#

someone named chan leung kuk is selling a 5800x brand new on amazon

#

the evolved version of Wish

cursive summit
#

@vagrant marsh For how much?

#

It's either 100$ or 1000$

vagrant marsh
#

Lets see

#

#

The other ia from slovakia

#

Pro gaming

last cave
#

don't encourage scalpers

ashen spindle
#

or at least not the worst priced option at an even higher price lul

vagrant marsh
#

Chinese scalpers

#

Buys 5800x. Gets 3000g

solar hinge
#

I saw a guy in the netherlands selling 4 5900x for the price he bought them + shipping. He was worried about scalpers

last cave
#

seems strange a random guy would have x4 5900x

solar hinge
#

Max the store allowed to buy in one go

gilded latch
#

anyone know if the wooting one can use gateron optical switches? I wanna switch to tactiles but the ones they used are gone forever...

tender sparrow
#

They can't

hard thicket
#

uhm

#

alright ???

#

and apparently it can run on ddr5

crimson wigeon
#

Excellent

old marlin
#

mmh

#

yea no

reef tundra
#

THE MOST POWERFULL LOW-POWER SILICONE

#

if you repeat it enough you might belief the lie

crimson wigeon
#

What lies I see only revolutionary magic 5nm Apple chip

reef tundra
#

innovation is removing features

cursive summit
#

3x faster huh?

#

3X FASTER THAN WHUT?

ashen spindle
#

no

#

just faster

#

not faster than

cursive summit
#

In neither scenario that claim would be correct

#

Though how on earth would Apple achieve such high single core perf on such low clocked cores?

#

Is it just a RISC thing?

reef tundra
#

RISC processors have a lot more cpu registers, less instruction set bloat (which take up room to implement and makes the branch prediction more complex)

cursive summit
#

Can x86 be "recoded" in a way to me more precise?

#

Say how AMD recoded x86 to x64

reef tundra
#

yes, you can afterall model hardware in software. eg 10 + 10 = 2 * 10

#

it will be slower but it wont takeup much of the silicon footprint

cursive summit
#

So can x86 be evolved in a way, to be faster?

reef tundra
#

They are moving towards the risc architecture by doing instruction in software instead of hardware but it is still in the thousands of discrete instructions that it has to do

neat oriole
#

Yeah but apple’s stuff has always ran well on geek bench

#

It’s kind of a moot comparison because of significantly different workloads on either platform

#

Maybe when adobe suite on arm reaches parity with adobe on windows, then we can have more reasonable comparisons

reef tundra
#

Fuck Adobe btw

fickle ore
#

Also there will be a Zen 3 refresh, next year possibly on a 7nm++ node. Zen 4 release in 2022.

ashen spindle
#

they might be a zen3 refresh

fickle ore
#

not bad, like 4-5 years being on top if say, we get ddr5 with good latencies after 1-2 years

#

now is the time to buy

ashen spindle
#

could just be another round of XT chips, or zen3 with DDR5 memory on AM5

fickle ore
#

Yehh, doubt they will outperform 4000/15 ddr4

neat oriole
#

Fuck Adobe btw

I agree, creative cloud can fuck right off

cursive summit
#

Zen 3 will definitely need a good refresh

#

If they want to obliterate Rocket Lake too

ashen spindle
#

no need to obliterate something intel wants to replace 6months later themselves

cursive summit
#

Damn Nvidia must be worried considering RTX 3080Ti which is basically an RTX 3090 is coming

hard thicket
#

the bigger issue for them currently is how to bring out a 3080ti without murdering the 3090

#

and competing against amd at the same time

ashen spindle
#

bit less Vram, keep memoy at 19 and not 19.5gbps

hard thicket
#

they could save it by enabling titan/quadro card features on it

#

which would give it slight more value overall

#

but nuh must be gaming

reef tundra
#

But then they have to charge you 3 kidneys

hard thicket
#

prolly

#

its nvidia afterall, giving out features for free ? HA

ashen spindle
#

quadro name is dead, but that would also make people very unhappy bc 1.5k for a quadro would be way too cheap

hard thicket
#

agreed

#

yet it performs atleast a little like a quadro

#

because of the bruteforce assumably

#

didnt they release one if the ampere workstation cards ?

#

the A6000

ashen spindle
#

announced, not out yet iirc

hard thicket
#

nvm its not out yet

cursive summit
#

The fuck is this

old marlin
#

userbenchmark sleepbirb

crimson wigeon
#

Ah sweet spin

cursive summit
#

9600K eh?

old marlin
#

userbenchmark

#

what do you expect

ashen spindle
#

uselessbenchmark

cursive summit
#

Tfw 3600 is probably below 200$ in value rn

#

And beats 9600K in games

#

Why would you even buy that trash?

old marlin
fickle ore
#

nice shills

old marlin
#

because market share makes a CPU better

ashen spindle
#

I mean

#

Itanium would definitely run better with higher market share bc then people would've developed more than 0 for it lul

old marlin
#

oh yea

cursive summit
#

because market share makes a CPU better

#

Brb

#

Going to buy the Zhaoxin CPUs

#

No market share = Zhaoxin > Intel core 11999080KFC

zenith sonnet
#

Lol

#

Apple's M1 'geekbench ASIC' still gets beaten by a Zen 3 CPU

cursive summit
#

More surprisingly it kills 10900K

#

Which is fun

old marlin
reef tundra
#

amd the dirty crime bois

old marlin
#

geekbench is not actual real life performance

ashen spindle
#

geekbench is like TFLPOS for gpu

#

Vega had much more than any nvidia card but was still shit

zenith sonnet
#

Well, ARM CPUs are mostly a mix and match of dozens of small ASICs, aren't they?

#

Accelerator here, accelerator there

reef tundra
#

pretty much. but its the same as calling it a bunch of transistors

fickle ore
#

1-3 more weeks to get cpu

#

dunno if mad or bad

reef tundra
#

They can also add their custom stuff in/outside of it(arm processor) as well. Could be some co-processor, special logic, or a plain logic gate.

hard thicket
#

now this time nvidia has the highest Tflops on the 3090

#

yet gets almost ass whooped by the 6900xt which has half of it

#

how the tables have turned

zenith sonnet
#

Well, Nvidia pretty much halved the width of their CUDA cores so they could make the numbers biggers

plush summit
#

UwU

wheat plume
#

its literally 7 lines of code... LEL nice

plush summit
#

XD

#

UwU

ashen spindle
#

also, Cinebench R23 exists now

old marlin
#

wat

#

what happened to 21 and 22

#

did they fall in the same hole as TS4?

ashen spindle
#

same hole as R16-19

old marlin
#

ah

#

wait

#

I forgot

#

they get named after C4D versions

ashen spindle
#

to support apples M1 chip

#

but timing is a bit akward, just after zen3 release

old marlin
#

apples moan chips dafoe

ashen spindle
#

nice

vagrant marsh
#

Intel xehpg when

cursive summit
#

What kind of display technology is LTPO?

#

Never heard of it

#

Wait it's an Apple technology?

#

Samsung S21 uses Apple technology for its display?

#

You were supposed to kill them not join them Samsung

vagrant marsh
#

Samsung is apple

cursive summit
#

In terms of pricing, yes

#

Ar least they still bundle the charger and free earbuds with their phones

vagrant marsh
#

i did it...

#

YES!!!

#

my memory is now running at cl16!

#

finally. had to do some freaking finetuning there but it finally accepted cl16 again. because i got 2 different memory kits in my pc, it refused to go lower than cl18. but i finally managed to hit that sweatspot

crisp granite
#

kinda bummed out that the bambooler master sub-ambient cooler doesn't come with an AM4 bracket

#

only supports LGA 1200

#

time for the drill press to fix things

ashen spindle
#

makes no sense to get it for am4 anyway

crimson wigeon
#

The official Raspberry Pi USB-C power supply is designed to power the latest Raspberry Pi 4 Model B computers, which were released in June 2019.Featuring a captive USB-C cable, the power supply is available in four different models to suit different international power sockets, and in two colours, white and black.

wheat plume
#

this says raspberry pi 5

#

wtf

reef tundra
#

5v is 5v

wheat plume
#

ohh

crisp granite
#

makes no sense to get it for am4 anyway
@ashen spindle it really does make sense

#

X-OC

ashen spindle
#

why would you want a product with sensors and all that doesn't work on AM4 regardless of mounting bracket

#

just save the money and buy a bigger cooler

crisp granite
#

that arctic 420mm rad?

reef tundra
#

Go bigger and passively cool it

crisp granite
#

bad Idea

#

besides

#

even without the software

#

it's a big, powerful cooler

vagrant marsh
#

are we talking about that cooler master thing?

crisp granite
#

yes

vagrant marsh
#

cant you just make your own bracket for it?

crisp granite
#

I got a drill press

vagrant marsh
#

i mean, for me it would be easy since i work at a metal shop

crisp granite
#

I can mod the old one

#

but the gasket needs work too

vagrant marsh
wheat plume
#

I have decided to get 2 screens and try to sell this on I have, I think maybe I could give it to my cousin but I will have to see

crisp granite
#

Canadians

#

proud of them, getting scammed by the most polite of scammers

#

🇨🇦

vagrant marsh
#

@wheat plume seriously, go for a Samsung C49RG90

#

2 1440p screens in one!

wheat plume
#

sounds expensive

vagrant marsh
#

only 1000 bucks. thats a steal

wheat plume
#

.-. xd

crisp granite
#

@wheat plume get the cheapest 720p monitor you can

#

great bang for buck

wheat plume
#

nah, I want 1080 :')

reef tundra
#

Stealing is illegal i will report this incident

crisp granite
#

then get a 1080p

#

you can get them for less than $150 CAD

crisp granite
#

get a 144hz panel

ashen spindle
#

isnt your current one better? thonk

wheat plume
#

what you mean better?

ashen spindle
#

idk dont quite remember what you have

wheat plume
#

current is IPS..so that is better but its 60Hz and also ultrawide
with two screens I wont really care muchg about it being no longer ultrawide

ashen spindle
#

I'd say get a 144hz as main one and a cheap second one

wheat plume
#

hmmmmmmmmmmmm

vagrant marsh
#

yea thats what i did at first. i had a 165hz 1440p main screen (suprise, my games hardly ever do more than 100) and had a cheap benq 1080p screen to watch youtube on hte side

wheat plume
#

gaming and youtube at the same time :P

#

I do that too if Im copying a redstone video sometimes

vagrant marsh
#

watching porn while killing demons in doom ethernal. nothing beats a raging boner while dessimating evil.

wheat plume
#

UwU I bet

reef tundra
#

That is just double the boner

wheat plume
#

thicc boi vs slimm boi

ashen spindle
#

...werent you looking for monitors and not laptops?

wheat plume
#

i aint looking for laptops :') I just love Keralis

reef tundra
#

He looks like he is about to sell me on some phillips hues

wheat plume
#

LEL

ashen spindle
#

..so while in the middle of looking for a monitor you started watching a random video where you dont even care about the content? thonk

wheat plume
#

I care about Keralis.....

#

also, unless there is a better suggestion I have decide on the monitor to get :P

vagrant marsh
#

cool

ashen spindle
#

yeah, get a 144hz monitor instead

#

you'll enjoy 1good 1 ok one much more than just 2 identical mediocre ones

reef tundra
#

all my monitors are 144hz bliss, 60hz feels slow now

wheat plume
#

wait, RTX 2060 Max Q
AMD Ryzen CPU

Minecraft + shaders + 12 chunk render distance = 30FPS ?

#

my computer gets like 70-100FPS with a gtx 1660

ashen spindle
#

ok?

wheat plume
#

thermal stuff keeping it down?

#

why is it 30 on this aptop?

ashen spindle
#

idk those things are not remotely comparable?

reef tundra
#

optifine helps with performance, sodium can get even better performance from minecraft. But it has no shader capability

ashen spindle
#

do you have the exact same shaders, version, mods, worlds etc.?

wheat plume
#

no mods, just optifine and shaders

#

idk what shaders he uses so guess its them

ashen spindle
#

resolution, other settings etc.

wheat plume
#

mine is higher res

reef tundra
#

laptops are often configured for powerusage in mind

wheat plume
#

yeah

#

im thinking its that

#

or the shaders

#

but he says on his desktop he gets 40-50FPS

ashen spindle
#

idk the guy but I would be very confused if his pc is worse than a mediocre (gaming performance wise) laptop he reviews

urban lynx
#

he should have like a 3080 he recently got that sponsored, dont know about his current cpu

wheat plume
#

he do

crisp granite
#

how is he getting 40-50 fps

#

only running RTX at 4k native could do that

#

but no one games at 4k anyway

ashen spindle
#

ez, high chunks bad cpu

#

or very taxing shaders

wheat plume
#

watching him play left handed is strange

#

I am left handed but still use my right hand for mouse

urban lynx
#

he does use a lot of shaders most of the time.
also consider, he plays java minecraft.
and on a server with a guy that is notorious to make the game lag.
aka Mumbo "who found a round circle by entities causing the server to crash due to entity mass" Jumbo
lol

#

fun fact. after a certain amount of glass in a world or area, optifine can make the game run worse than default.
GWvictoriaMeguFace

wheat plume
#

mumbo always lags the server :')

ashen spindle
#

oh it's a server and not even a local game?

#

what a useless comparison then

wheat plume
#

he did the first test in single player

urban lynx
#

i didnt even watch it, so i cant talk about that actually XD

wheat plume
#

got the same FPS as on the server actually

urban lynx
#

i kinda always skip any of these unboxing and "sponsored" stuff from my subscriptions

wheat plume
#

true

ashen spindle
#

yeah I watched one a couple years ago

#

then I thought to myself that was a bigger waste of my time than regular youtube videos are so whats the point

wheat plume
reef tundra
#

Because the OS has to interpret the date and time with the value from the RTC. So you might end up few timezones apart, its mostly for humans.

cursive summit
#

Got the Dell XPS 13 9310 today

#

Beautiful machine

#

Tiger Lake's doing well, but not as good as I hoped it would

#

Visibly inferior to desktop chips, although it is an ultrabook so eh

#

Nimble though, and the 4K touchscreen is amazing

#

All around baller product

reef tundra
#

4k on 13inch?

cursive summit
#

Ye

#

I know it's overkill, but the only 2-in-1 model that comes with an i7 is the 4K model

#

All 1080p models have i5s

reef tundra
#

Epic, it imagine it would look sharp, considering that my 4k on a 15inch panel is great and sharp

cursive summit
#

I couldn't notice a pixel

#

Fluid panel

#

Tbh my wife's getting visibly irritated I keep poking the touchscreen

reef tundra
#

anti-aliasing in hardware

reef sluice
#

nice

#

wife goes no touchy mode

cursive summit
#

Oh believe me she is in no touchy mode

#

.

#

Enough said

reef tundra
#

I just like poking my liquid crystals

cursive summit
#

Rn I am looking into decent eGPU enclosures

reef sluice
#

so she isn''t just jealous then

cursive summit
#

So all I really need is an eGPU and some sort of card to run games

reef tundra
#

It has an usb-c with lightning ability or whatever exposes the pcie lanes?

misty saffron
#

speaking of laptops

cursive summit
#

Thunderbolt 4

#

@reef tundra

misty saffron
#

apple’s keyboard + touchpad accessory for ipad pro is actually a very nice laptop replacement

cursive summit
#

eGPU perf is really good on Tiger Lake

#

They moved the thunderbolt controller into the CPU itself

#

Which severely reduces latency

#

Much faster eGPU perf

#

Also Thunderbolt 4 itself has some upgrades, so all in all it's really good for gaming

#

Dunno though, I might get an RTX 3070 or something

#

And wife can borrow my RX 5700 for the eGPU

misty saffron
#

nvidia kekw

#

that crap earrapes you even at 3%

reef tundra
#

You only need to meet the minimal bitrate to make it work. The rest is idle time. Id imagine it having an higher latency over 16x bus.

#

What do you need explained? sound can and is sometimes loud.

misty saffron
#

not really how that works with computers

reef sluice
#

changing the volume makes no difference to how it sounds is probably what

#

it's pmuch either there or you have it muted

vagrant marsh
#

@misty saffron that is why that literally isnt allowed by law 😛

old marlin
#

fml

vagrant marsh
#

Yea. The smoking xbox sex thing. They blew vape smoke into it to see the airflow and ofcourse reddit instantly thought they had a new scoop on burning xboxes. The ps fanboys ofcourse made it spread like wildfire

pale sigil
#

insane deal for youtube premium users

vagrant marsh
#

Still wont use youtube premium tho

pale sigil
#

its for people who had it before nov 6

vagrant marsh
#

Well fuck them then

#

🤣

pale sigil
#

not really

#

makes sense

vagrant marsh
#

Only for existing customers. What they need is to attract new customare

pale sigil
#

lol not a chromecast ultra

#

they wont give that away for free lad

old marlin
#

wat

#

so essentially a new chromecast?

pale sigil
#

and a controller

#

for free

#

😉

old marlin
#

can the controller even do xinput?

pale sigil
#

idk

old marlin
#

apparently it works

#

similar to a playstation controller

pale sigil
#

ohh, apparently if you upgrade to youtube family and add people it counts

#

im gonna get my friend to add me

#

xD

old marlin
#

have no use for a chromecast peepoShrug

pale sigil
#

i can finally replace me first gen

#

if anyone is on youtube family 👍 throw it my way and ill pay the difference that month.

chrome estuary
#

Can you just grab premium and get it or do you already have to have it?

#

Nope. Damn

#

Also why are people so adamant on the PS5 having 1440p support? Almost no one uses 1440p with it. It's either 1080p or 4k since it's meant for TVs.

crimson wigeon
#

Because apparently everyone is hooking up their consoles to their 1440p monitors now

ashen spindle
#

Because 1440p is literally the target for Series S and ps5 cant even deliver it?

#

also lot more people who want one that have a pc now and want to use it on their monitor

chrome estuary
#

Sounds like a them problem.

#

Until Sony releases the update to fully allow it. They can deal with upscalled 1080p

ashen spindle
#

yea until then I just wont buy a ps5, so it's not a problem lol

chrome estuary
#

Sony said they were looking for TV support initially which makes sense because most of their purchases will be from people looking to replace their PS4

#

I still want a PS5 but I'm gonna wait til like early next year for it

ashen spindle
#

it really isn't that difficult to support another output resolution, especially not if it's just another one inbetween of what you support

#

I'm not asking for 21:9 support or anything

#

but im not buying a TV just for a console lol

chrome estuary
#

They said they'd probably get it set up sometime soon

neat oriole
#

It’s a bit more complicated than that

chrome estuary
#

It also makes sense to go primarily for TV resolutions because that's their primary demographic.

ashen spindle
#

same for the xbox but they support it

misty saffron
#

what good games are there on xbox one?

#

bought a series x but since there’s nothing to play exclusive to that console yet...

old marlin
#

exclusive

neat oriole
#

Yeah but the Xbox SS is pretty scuffed rn

old marlin
#

that is why I hate console gamers

neat oriole
#

AC Valhalla is only doing 30fps on SS

old marlin
#

on what rez

misty saffron
#

exclusive
@old marlin no shit i’m not going to ask about pc games

old marlin
#

why did you buy it

ashen spindle
#

there wont be any xbox exclusives

old marlin
#

there won't be xbox exclusives

#

just games not releasing on ps5

misty saffron
#

to play on couch

old marlin
#

or switch

#

pc can't connect to tv

misty saffron
#

don’t feel like having 40 degrees ambient temps while playing in bed tbh

neat oriole
#

Valhalla is capped 30fps on Xbox SS, which is 1440p only

old marlin
#

ok

#

who tf cares

#

xbox is dead for europe either way

neat oriole
#

You asked

timid chasm
#

PS5 just for Demon's Souls and then a PC for everything else, duh

old marlin
#

ig i did

#

demon souls remaster looks like trash

#

would rather emulate the original

timid chasm
#

Nah, it looks pretty

old marlin
#

cause adding foliage makes the game good

ashen spindle
#

demon souls, bloodborne, next god of war, next persona, next horizon game

timid chasm
#

No foliage makes the game pretty

ashen spindle
#

thats what I'm eyeing but I'm not getting one if I need to use upscaling on my screen lmao

timid chasm
#

no way to know if the game is good or not yet for most

old marlin
#

uhh

#

persona won;t be ps5 exclusive

#

100%

#

it is more likely that it will be a switch exclusive

chrome estuary
#

Wasn't the whole thing with xbox the point that there is no more exclusives and everything can be played on PC through game pass or whatever?

old marlin
#

yes

ashen spindle
#

I am very certain there will be enough money from sony that P6 will at least release timed exclusive for ps5

old marlin
#

doubt it

ashen spindle
#

regardless, that wont come out befre 22 anyway

old marlin
#

like

#

ps5 atm is loosing japanese titles

#

cause they want to force censorship on all plattforms

ashen spindle
#

playstation you mean

old marlin
#

eh

#

ye

chrome estuary
#

I want the PS5 for demon souls, sackboy, GoW, and whatever else that comes out and interests me

#

Oh and 4k blu-ray player

old marlin
#

so a lot of the japanese rpgs get switch or switch and xbox releases

ashen spindle
#

regardless, enough stuff on there that I want that wont be on PC in the near future

chrome estuary
#

Whenever Cyberpunk 2077 releases in the next decade... I'm gonna be playing the fuck out of that on PC. I know that much

old marlin
#

cyberpunk might get censored on ps5 dafoe

timid chasm
#

I will start Cyberpunk and doubt I finish it like every other game that exists

chrome estuary
#

There's a reason why I bought it on PC

#

Also what's the point in censoring shit if it's mature and adult

#

Like what the fuck Sony

old marlin
#

I hope they won't pull shit the try and censor all versions

chrome estuary
#

Next thing that's gonna happen is that shooting people in games will cause a massive censor bar to cover their entire person so you don't see the death

old marlin
#

lol

chrome estuary
#

And I just thought of something horrible... Sackboy FPS. Sorta like how the Plants VS Zombies people did it.

#

Fluffing comes out instead of blood. The guns are all felt and kinda plushy

#

Bandages and first aid kits are sewing kits

neat oriole
#

I mean Americans have always been weird with censorship

#

People dying? Fine. Nip slip? REEEEEEE NO NIP SLIP IN MY CHRISTIAN SERVER

chrome estuary
#

Yeah annoyingly. Like how many fuckin years did it take for youtube to allow nudity on the site as long as it's in an artistic take like in games or whatever? 2016?

reef patrol
#

Or twitch for that matter...

chrome estuary
#

Yeah but twitch is run and maintained by a bunch of idiots

neat oriole
#

Simps*

reef patrol
#

But yeah. Hollywood soccer mom syndrome has always hit movies and games hard in that regard

chrome estuary
#

Second verse same as the first.

reef patrol
#

Meanwhile Europe doesn't give a shit.

chrome estuary
#

Like that one super popular twitch streamer who accidentally flashed her chat or whatever didn't get banned or anything

#

Starts with an A I think?

reef patrol
#

I uh... Was talking about the games content.

chrome estuary
#

Oh

#

Either or

reef patrol
#

What streamers do is another matter.

timid chasm
#

that gym bitch? Ugh she's the worst

reef patrol
#

You used to have to skip or blank out any adult content in games.

#

Hard to do as a streamer.

timid chasm
#

I assume the GTA strip clubs are still a no no?

chrome estuary
#

Probably

reef patrol
#

Nope. Those are fine.

chrome estuary
#

Oh

#

The issue I have with shit like that is like... It's a fucking game. It's fiction. It's not real.

reef patrol
#

As long as you treat it with respect and don't go LOOK AT DEM MASSIVE TIDDIES. TIDDY TIME twitch doesn't care.

And the stream has to be adult only of .

neat oriole
#

Twitch has a list of banned games

#

If a game isn’t on there it’s probably safe

#

As long as you mark your stream as “mature”

timid chasm
#

so you can't say that but you can "say it" with your attire. Come the fuck on twitch

chrome estuary
#

Yeah but most of those banned games are the stupid sex games or stuff like Hatred

ashen spindle
#

Twitch is also not banning them because they don't like them but because they don't want to allow content that will get the site in trouble in courts

#

(obv still doing that in not a great way, just like the handling of DMCA)

chrome estuary
#

See I watch JFJ (Can't watch his streams cause bad internet). That motherfucker doesn't care. He strums on youtube but still. I'm so surprised he hasn't been banned for some of the shit he says and does.

#

Sure he hides nudity in games and stuff if he can

ew curved fullhd

cursive summit
#

Looks alright

#

But FullHD

#

Disgusting

#

Also I officially joined the "fuck pixels" gang

#

4K UHD screen is so fucking beautiful holy shit

fickle ore
#

yeah ik

wheat plume
#

Lol

fickle ore
#

I really want 4k but not right now

#

maybe rdna 3.

#

but 299€ for that monitor + ssd?

ashen spindle
#

I don't like curved on a regular size monitor

fickle ore
#

cuz?

ashen spindle
#

idk just weird

#

I like my curved ultrawide

#

but smaller and curved is just, personally, more distracting than helping

#

but thats preference

fickle ore
#

right

#

looks bad

At some point I will upgrade my secondary monitors to 4k60 probably keeping 1440p 155 as my main. But before I can do that I need to confirm per display scaling works well in linux under wayland (it does not under xorg) and that there are no other problematic side effects. Before I can use wayland however, I first need a new gpu as nvidia drivers are incompatible.

#

Im still waiting for my 5900x

#

Got 2 orders going. One says next year, other says december

ashen spindle
#

I have my 5600x sitting in the corner glorySip

reef patrol
#

Mine's ready on board. Just gotta finish taking pics and I can use it.

vagrant marsh
#

I could buy the 5600x but its overpriced

#

Mainstream stores got it at 330 euro. The stores that do have it in stock sell it for almost 400

thick elk
#

I stick to my 8700k@5ghz for a bit longer, not that much of a performance jump atm.

#

If amd continues at it's current speed next gen may be a different story.

#

Alternatively if my overclocked 3570k in my server dies would be a point to upgrade.

old marlin
#

peepoShrug I will switch to the next gen probably

#

since I will go away from maining a laptop

#

I expect my 2080 to struggle with 1440p 144hz

zenith sonnet

I'm going all in this gen, so I can skip the first one or two DDR5 gens

cursive summit
#

58€ for single 16GB 2400MHz CL16 RAM stick

#

Decent deal?

#

I remember the times 8GB was 40€ so to me that sounds quite good

ashen spindle
#

2400 is quite bad

pale sigil
#

very bad

#

lmao

reef patrol
#

Yeah... you can get a 2x8GB kit for 60

#

At 3000Mhz

cursive summit
#

Unless OCd to 3GHz tbh

#

32GBs of dual channel 3GHz mem isn't bad

fair gull
#

i only have 32gigs 2666

ashen spindle
#

it might be a good deal if you get 4 bc you need raw memory size

#

but for anything else not really

ashen spindle
#

AMD why, unboxing is allowed 2 days before launch but reviews only on launch gloryCry

oh

old marlin

Buckling spring

Especially from unicomp

wheat plume
#

:')

#

He uses it as a mouse too

#

cause he uses Tiling window managerrs only so its all keyboard driven

old marlin
#

Well great for him

#

Makes a lot of stuff really slow or barely useable

wheat plume
#

totally..... it suits him... he makes a bunch of bash scripts to do shit using Dmenu and rofi

#

:PP

halcyon moss
wheat plume
#

:p

#

I ran sensors-detect

halcyon moss
#

it tries to detect stuff, no mean you dont have it

wheat plume
#

if only one of these is detected does it still mean I can control that fan with software?

halcyon moss
#

i dont know

wheat plume
#

Ill look up that fdan model

#

Nuvoton

fair gull
#

@wheat plume theoretically it could detect all and u might not be able to control ur fans

wheat plume
#

ah

#

caus emy fans stay on an idle and I dont like that cause they are loud and have some coil whine.... I should just replace them perhaps ....

#

I assume, I can get any fan the same size right?

fair gull
#

laptop?

wheat plume
#

desktop

#

muh new pc

fair gull
#

id check bios first

#

most new bios setups have smart fan curves

#

u can adjust these

ashen spindle
#

gpu fans or cpu fans or chasis fan?

wheat plume
#

it seems the case fans are the ones being loud

cursive summit
#

YO WHAT

#

WHERE CAN I BUY THIS

wheat plume
#

OOOO GIMME

ashen spindle
#

yeah so just lower fan curve in bios for them

wheat plume
#

Ill look in bios...

fair gull
#

after u done that

#

buy some nice noctua fans

wheat plume
#

o?

fair gull
#

@ashen spindle inb4 the case fans are plugged into molex cables

cursive summit
#

But it's still beautiful

wheat plume
#

showed superIO in the scan

ashen spindle
#

lmao wouldnt be the most surprising thing I've seen

wheat plume
#

that is sexy GPU :D

fair gull
#

had a friend who got a new pc

#

and all his case fans were on molex

#

so i told him to buy some noctuás

#

and plug em into mobo

#

now hes happy

ashen spindle
#

yes your scan shows you have a superio chip from nuvoton, idk why you looked that up, I'm betting you dont even know what you were going to do with the info

cursive summit
#

Damn the Palit GameRock is one of the best cards in terms of boost

#

Cool

crisp granite
#

and the current gen palit gamerock looks f-ugly AF

wheat plume
#

I just found a thing similar to this

#

OMFH WOW

cursive summit

This is so fucking cool but nsfw

crisp granite

very nice

cursive summit

I like the lower right corner

It's very.. attractive

old marlin

@cursive summit china only

crisp granite

that backplate though

#

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

wheat plume

I like the lower right corner
@cursive summit I prefer thighs

cursive summit

They look sick

#

@wheat plume Weird preference but okay

crisp granite
#

woah

#

everyone has their preference

#

let them enjoy it without judgement

cursive summit
wheat plume
#

🤤 gimme

cursive summit
#

Worst thing it's that these are so fucking cool

#

But I need to buy it from a random chinese company

wheat plume
#

yeah ;-;

cursive summit
#

Like why aren't these a thing

old marlin
#

?

#

"random chinese company"

fair gull
#

just get ur card painted?

cursive summit
#

I know Maxsun is quite big okay

wheat plume
#

I feel there is a massiv overlap between weebs and pc gamers

old marlin
#

Aka any reseller of them on aliexpress

fair gull
#

@wheat plume u mean plot and pc gamers

wheat plume
#

LEL

cursive summit

Ali doesn't have the cool ones

I am not paying 830 euro before taxes for an RTX 3080

wheat plume
#

:O

cursive summit
#

Even if it has a milfy weeb character on it

ashen spindle
#

yeah because its out of stock gloryKeK

cursive summit
#

@ashen spindle That's the launch price thonk

ashen spindle
#

its also the out of stock price

cursive summit
#

Those go down?

crisp granite
#

so likely higher than normal

ashen spindle
#

no im making fun of them being out of stock

cursive summit
#

Cmon bruh

crisp granite
#

I just want an RTX 3070, this generation of gpus

old marlin

Hardware prices in asia aren't nay better than anywhere else

they aren't that bad in canada though

other than the top end

YO

#

That's the "Enchantment heart princess" RTX 3070

crisp granite
#

thank you

cursive summit
#

These are limited edition apparently

crisp granite
#

this or an ASUS Dual thonk

cursive summit
#

This of course

#

Will an ASUS give you a hard boner? Of course not

crisp granite
#

yes, it would

cursive summit
#

Extra features

wheat plume
#

right, imma hop into BIOS and see if there is a fan control thing

#

Wait, lets read the fucking manual first

fair gull
#

lol

wheat plume
#

RTFM

fair gull
#

what mobo is it

wheat plume
#

asus prime B550M-A-Wifi

fair gull
#

has fan control in bios

#

100%

wheat plume
#

ah

fair gull
#

all asus uefi boards after like what 2018

#

do

ashen spindle
#

how do you consider reading out random sensors on the board, but instead of just opening bios you then check the manual gloryT seems a bit backwards

wheat plume
ashen spindle
#

just open the bios

wheat plume
#

oook....one moment lemme get discord open in my phone

#

Forgot the bios key
I think it's f2

cursive summit
fair gull
#

@wheat plume del or f2

cursive summit
wheat plume
#

Yeh f2

fair gull
#

btw asus calls it qfan control

wheat plume
fair gull
#

thats the curve u adjust

#

as u can see ur fan is at least 40%

wheat plume
#

Oh, at certain temp points

fair gull
#

even at 0°C

wheat plume
#

Yep
Turning that down :'?

ashen spindle
#

no thats the cpu fan

fair gull
#

still

ashen spindle
#

you said its the chasis fan so adjust the chasis fan

fair gull
#

id bet the cha fan has the same

#

that looks like the default curve

ashen spindle
#

yeah but no need to change it if its fine

wheat plume
#

You adjust each one individually
That's neat if you are smart

#

Unlike me xd idk the best curve to use

fair gull
#

no one knows

#

it depends on a lot of stuff

#

like flowrate

#

coolers

#

actual fan setup of the chassis

ashen spindle
#

you said its too loud so you turn it down and see if it works

#

nothing more to it

wheat plume
#

I'll turn the chassis fans to silent until like 60c?

#

Unless I play games it doesn't reach that

ashen spindle
#

do whatever you want

#

if it doesnt work just change it

wheat plume
#

That's the thing
Idk

ashen spindle
#

then dont change anything and continue complaining about noise idk what you want

wheat plume
#

Seems I can't put it to 0%

fair gull
#

we dont know either lana

#

fan setup is trial and error

#

in terms of fan speed

wheat plume
#

It won't let me change the second case fan to anything lower than 60%

#

And the first case fan not lower than 40%

ashen spindle
#

ok then try that

fair gull
#

u only have 1

#

the fuck u wanna change cha2 for

wheat plume
#

Maybe it's just the fans themselves being loud

#

I noticed that

#

I have two case fans.....
Guess it can't detect one of them :/

ashen spindle
#

either it cant detect the other one or they are both on the same slot

fair gull
#

i mean from what i hear u got some cheap prebuilt

#

usually ud try to give each fan their own mb header

wheat plume
#

I didn't get a prebuilt

fair gull
#

and somehwat preconfigure it to run rather silent

#

so u assembled it wrong?

wheat plume
#

Guess so?

fair gull
#

i mean how did u connect the second chassis fan

wheat plume
#

My friend did it

#

Is the second fan the rear one?

fair gull
#

how the fuck would i know

#

i didnt connect ur fans

wheat plume
#

True

crimson wigeon
#

How would we know just open it up and look at where the fans are connected

ashen spindle
#

just look at where the fan cables go on the board

fair gull
#

lol

#

at this point just do a livestream in a channel and show us

#

prob faster

wheat plume
#

I can see the cable for the rear fan connect to the mobo
I can't read the label under the slot though

ashen spindle
#

then check the manual what that slot is

wheat plume
#

Yeh
I need to get it... One sec

wheat plume
#

The rrear fan slotted into CHA fan1 port

#

3V cmos battery
Oh wow

My old pc was 1.3V

cursive summit
wheat plume
#

There is a second m.2 slot but it's covered by the gpu

Welp

cursive summit
#

Epyc Milan 7763

wheat plume
#

I need to dust down the inside of the case

cursive summit
#

You just got the computer and already you had a dust buildup?

wheat plume
#

Not much dust

#

The fact even very little is there bothers me

ashen spindle
#

why

#

you dont even see it

#

when you use it

wheat plume
#

I know
I'm just thinking maybe I could put the pc along the back of the desk so I can see inside

#

But it won't fit
Desk isn't wide enough

ashen spindle
#

...so what you are saying, is that you still wont see it

wheat plume
#

Ye

cursive summit
#

Female problems require female solutions lul

wheat plume
#

Shhhhh

#

:'(

cursive summit
#

What's this fan thing you are even doing?

ashen spindle
#

who knows, apparently the cmos voltage is more interesting now

cursive summit
#

Dunno most females I know are just happy that their shit is working

#

I've never seen one that voluntarily goes into BIOS

wheat plume
#

I've either got to accept the noise
Or get less loud fans

cursive summit
#

That's a historical moment

wheat plume
#

I've gone into bios many times to install linux and windows

urban lynx
#

i mean... i do like looking stuff up if it doesnt work...
but i wont bother if not needed 🤔

wheat plume
#

:')

ashen spindle
#

that sounds like you might want to look at more than one

urban lynx
#

and tbf. i dont really care too much about dust build up so far.
on the other hand, i havent had issues with that just yet.

#

sure. i do might need to wipe my keyboard, i'll admit that

#

... you know what.
i'm in the mood.
I'll wipe it down quickly

ashen spindle
#

you can also lower the fans, try a different slot if that one doesnt detect it or just unplug the entire fan

wheat plume
#

Imma see if the power cable is long enough to put the pc on the floor instead

misty pier
#

i don't have to worry about dust because I have an air compressor in the garage

#

just gotta hold the fans still and it kicks all that dust out with a few passes

urban lynx
#

i might wanna do this a bit more when like the keyboard maybe isnt connected to the pc

#

also... not everyone has a compressor in their garage.
usually they are a bit more expensive and do require kind of a purpose GWvictoriaMeguFace

misty pier
#

yeah I understand

#

we use it to reinflate our tires and clean gunk out equipment

ashen spindle
#

just have cleaning your pc be the purpose :p

misty pier
#

i think those handheld blowers can help out for less price

urban lynx
#

for reinflating tires it seems a little... too expensive. can just quickly head over to any of the nearby gas stations and use theirs. for free...

#

or, like...
the one i plug into my car that came with the car.

misty pier
#

it's just mainly for convenience

#

i guess

wheat plume
#

I have enough room to put the pc along the wall at the back of the case, if I remove my speakers from the desk

#

Back of the desk*

pale sigil
#

Along the wall

#

Wot

wheat plume
#

I can turn the case 90° anti clockwise if I want

#

But I need to remove the speakers from my desk

#

Well
One of them

reef sluice
#

is there any tool for downloading youtube videos with their descriptions and possibly with cc too
thinking of fully downloading a playlist or two of mine ideally with the descriptions and possibly some other info intact

wheat plume
#

youtube-dl

cursive summit
#

@wheat plume You need to get some normal speakers that aren't bizzare 😄

reef sluice
#

wasn't it's git taken down the otehr day?

wheat plume
#

@wheat plume You need to get some normal speakers that aren't bizzare 😄
@cursive summit literally any other box shaped speakers would take up just as much space :') so shut

ashen spindle
#

yea but there are other hosts for it

cursive summit
#

@wheat plume Not at all

wheat plume
#

Yes

#

They would

cursive summit
#

Or technically, could you just put them horizontally?

wheat plume
#

Huh?

cursive summit
#

Just "put them to bed" per se

wheat plume
#

LOL

cursive summit
#

Cause they are ridiculously vertically large

wheat plume
#

Yeh
But they are as wide as most box speakers

#

Wideness is the issue with my desk currently

cursive summit
#

I'd rather have them horizontally than vertically tbh

#

Horizontally they still might fit in front of the displays

#

So even space savings

#

Or better off, behind them

wheat plume
#

Behind would be interesting place for them

cursive summit
#

Behind is always an interesting place for any occasion

pale sigil

No one needs to know the context lennythink

Student's life be kinda wild nowadays lul

Wait fuck I'm a student

It’s only wild when you don’t plan on succeeding

Kill it in task manager and launch it again

#

Fuck Bohemia for not knowing how to properly game engine

@pale sigil Tbh I only plan to succeed as far as graduation is concerned

wheat plume
cursive summit
#

Other than that I don't plan on working in IT sphere that much

wheat plume
#

This could work :')

cursive summit
#

@wheat plume How about you do something like this

#

You are wasting space right now

#

Rotate the box

#

Put it next to the wall

pale sigil
#

Like a normal person

cursive summit
#

Push the display closer to you

wheat plume
#

Back wall?

cursive summit
#

Left wall

wheat plume
#

Oh
Clear side of the case against the left wall?

cursive summit
wheat plume
#

It was just like that before now

#

Xd

pale sigil
#

Yes

cursive summit
#

Push display closer to you

#

And put the shitty giant speakers behind it

wheat plume
#

Look
They aren't bigger than other box speakers....

#

Xd

cursive summit
#

Imma sketch it up like a pro

misty pier
#

why not put pc on floor if you need the space

wheat plume
#

Just shaped not like a box

#

I can't. Carpet

misty pier
cursive summit
#

Pro fucking skills

#

Enough space for keyboard, mouse, etc

wheat plume
#

That just gets me back to step one xd

#

I'm doing all this so I can see the clear side of the case tbh

#

It's neat being able to see the components

cursive summit
#

RGB lover lul

ashen spindle
#

so you look at it once, think "neat" and then have it waste space on your desk

wheat plume
#

No.. don't have rgb in my case xd

pale sigil
#

Why not just put your pc on the right

wheat plume
#

Idk
Nervous about it falling off somehow
I feel safer with it in the corner of the room on the left

#

Although I have another cabinet on the right

pale sigil
#

Never in my life

ashen spindle
#

the ground is pretty safe for that risk

pale sigil
#

Has that happened

wheat plume
#

Yeh.... It doesn't make sense

cursive summit
#

@pale sigil You never know what happens behind her back so.. that concern is justified

pale sigil
#

Lol someone’s being to rough

cursive summit
#

Dunno I'd only put the PC on top of the desk if you have enough space for everything else

#

Considering you want a second display, that's not a luxury you have

pale sigil
#

I made my desk for 2 monitors and computer

cursive summit
#

Your own desk?

whats wrong with BIOS?

only a ghost would still use bios and not UEFI smh

Eh - Still called a BIOS by everyone and their pet dogs.

wheat plume
#

my mobo is UEFI

reef patrol
#

Even manufacturers xD

wheat plume
#

ah, imma hop into UEFI to change some things

reef patrol
#

And calling it UEFI will just confuse anyone using legacy booting anyhow, since it's a pretty big catch all.

wheat plume

doesnt sounds as right as saying BIOS
