[old marlin]

why

[zenith sonnet]

Had to call in to get it reactivated

They forgot to cancel the cancellation

After Telekom tried to get me to change provider and I cancelled that in 2019

They cancelled the provider change

But forgot to take out the termination order

I also could have gotten a new contract with the same conditions and all, and 100mbit more upload

For the same price for two years, then a price hike of 20€ after that

Fuck that shit

Also apparently my contract included a static IP since 2019 that had never been activated

[old marlin]

[zenith sonnet]

What the hell is WLAN MESH?

[old marlin]

an IPV4 one?

[old marlin]

marketing BS

basically

[zenith sonnet]

Good question. I've only ever used IPv4

[old marlin]

what is your current public IP?

or rahter

[zenith sonnet]

None

[old marlin]

is it IPv4 or IPv6

[zenith sonnet]

It'll take a few hours to get it reactivated

[old marlin]

ah

right

[zenith sonnet]

Used to always be both IPv4 and IPv6

[old marlin]

cause if it is IPv6, that shit costs nothing

[fair gull]

vodafone uses dslite

[old marlin]

not entirely

also docsis

since the acquisition of unitymedia

[zenith sonnet]

I'm on DOCSIS 3.0

[fair gull]

docsis can also have dslite tho

[old marlin]

ig

[zenith sonnet]

Hecking heck

I can't fucking find where to change the IP address of the damn router

Oh god damn it AVM

Hidden in a hidden dropdown menu

[old marlin]

[wheat plume]

I got the disk drive

Now I'm confused

One cable?

But they can't be right idk

[old marlin]

?

that is just sata

[cursive summit]

What

No

This is power

That's data

[wheat plume]

Ohh

[cursive summit]

Just plug the damn cables in and it's fine

I guess in some weird bizzare reality there are "combiners" of sorts for better cable management

But you don't need that

Yeah literally

But you can do without this weird shit

[wheat plume]

I'm not looking forward to having to unplug everything and mess with cable management

Got the data cable too

The drive didn't even come it a box
Just wrapped up in bubble wrap

This is what I need for power?

[crimson wigeon]

Well yeah where else can you plug that in?

[wheat plume]

Oh FML

Work slid in anymore
I thought these are standard sizes

[crimson wigeon]

Try putting the case front cover back on and see how well it lines up..

[wheat plume]

....

Why

Am I so stupid

[crimson wigeon]

Also don't forget to screw the drive in if your case doesn't have the fancy clips

[wheat plume]

Nah it clips in

I hear a little click when it slides into the tray

[hollow mango]

Looks like you've done everything

[wheat plume]

No
Need to get the power cable now

[hollow mango]

Also fun fact you can fit a paper clip into the little hole above the light to eject something immedietly

[crimson wigeon]

Yeah, but don't do it while it's in use as else bad things can happen

[hollow mango]

Yeah it's an emergency thing

[wheat plume]

The hard part is trying to deal with the mess of cables

Got one

[hollow mango]

It will slot in about 2-3 mm

[wheat plume]

Not the prettiest but it's connected now

[fair gull]

iirc u slide em in without taking the front cover off

[wheat plume]

I had to take it off anyway to take the disk drive slot shield off

It was handy for managing the cables too

wooo

i dont have any CDs to test it with

oo

[ashen spindle]

?

whats so special about that driver

[crimson wigeon]

It's GAME READY

oh wait they all are

[wheat plume]

I was certain there would be one before I booted up the PC, cause last night I had a GPU driver update on Linux also

I just realised most of my hardware inside the PC is from Asus

Asus mobo
Asus GPU
Asus Disk drive
Asus CPU cooler

[ashen spindle]

.. thats not an asus cpu cooler though

[crimson wigeon]

ASUS CPU cooler? Where

[wheat plume]

oh wait nvm

[red oyster]

Cooler master

[wheat plume]

Im tired ok.... I had like 4 hours sleep

it always scares me when the screen flashes black for a few seconds during the driver install

Update or no?

everything is working fine

[ashen spindle]

personally I'd say uninstalling that lmao

[wheat plume]

:')

If I ever get anything ARGB, I will need to use this for the lighting configuration

[ashen spindle]

then download it if that ever happens?

[wheat plume]

its not like this takes up much room

and it doesnt run in the background so eh, its fine

and it gets auto installed, Unless you turn the option off in BIOS

Ejecting the disk tray works xd thats all I can test for the moment ahah

[reef patrol]

Cup holder achieved

[wheat plume]

very saggy cup holder

[old marlin]

Got a Z800 for home use

[lethal wasp]

can I swap drive letters of two drives without fucking everything?

[old marlin]

you can swap drive letters

but every shortcut and linkage to it will get fucked

afaik no easy way around it

[lethal wasp]

I'm just being slightly OCD :p

I wanna swap d and e

[ashen spindle]

well, some things might act up but for most cases only shortcuts break

like I had to repair virtual box when I removed a drive

wouldn't let me install, uninstall, or start

[lethal wasp]

uwu

[reef patrol]

[lethal wasp]

my mate put his other drives

as a and b

and it makes me wanna piss blood

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/156528760072568833/814911934271848498/unknown.png

WHAT IS THAT

[reef patrol]

Might as well these days 😄

[lethal wasp]

🤢

[ashen spindle]

unless you play some age old game that doesnt want to run on A: lmao

had that couple years ago on my old pc when I also had an A drive

[reef patrol]

And that's why all of my DVD (or older) era games go on my 6TB Mechanical drive 😄

Which is the last letter.

[misty pier]

me

could change my flash drive to B: 🤔

[ashen spindle]

think if I get more I'll get creative and just call it E: without the local disk pre-fix

[fair gull]

why

do you people name ur disks after their model

https://discordjs.moe/uel55GvwOC.png

[ashen spindle]

tbf that was the default name for some of my old ones

[umbral knot]

what is an eb

is that big or smol

[fair gull]

exabyte

https://discordjs.moe/uASqi1jhRF.png

[crimson wigeon]

chonky

[fair gull]

its just googles bs response tho on theoretical drive size

[umbral knot]

so quite large

[fair gull]

google can store up to 400k files and a file can theoretically be 5TiB

so max 2EiB

[lethal wasp]

does the recent wooting update change it's performance slightly?

[ashen spindle]

should be making things a bit better yes

[wheat plume]

there is barely any gap between the top of the motherboard and the end of the disk drive
like 2-4mm at most

[reef patrol]

Small cases in a nutshell 😄

[wheat plume]

this is "small form factor"

compared to my last computer its freaking massive though xd

[zenith sonnet]

Looks like I got upgraded a little...

My contract should remain at 400/50

[fair gull]

if we go by that i get 150mbit more than my contract states

[zenith sonnet]

Used to be 407/50.6 or something on the same contract before they reinstated it

[wheat plume]

https://youtu.be/wC5lBQiXooE

This would be freaking amazing

[fair gull]

so basically ios getting more android features

[pale sigil]

That's literally

Ugh

Lana

I think I messed this up

Well if ain't my ram

[fair gull]

thats one old ass memtest version u got there

memtest has had issues in the past with old versions not erroring at all

but new versions doing

Lots of possible reasons. Different multi-threading behaviour, change to the algorithms, different memory map from BIOS. The latter being the most likely one to make the difference. UEFI supplies a different memory map compared to BIOS. Different ranges of RAM are available for testing.

[pale sigil]

Games I encounter freezing unless I reboot

And I re installed windows

[pale sigil]

I'd rather it be my cpu than GPU tbh

Cpu sorry

https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/58887117?

@digital cliff I did

A month ago

Interesting

LOD

https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/58887545?

The fuck lol

[thick elk]

if it's just games gpu, psu or mobo does seem likely, with memory I often get things like crashed browser tabs as well and cpu issues you generally expect crashes elsewhere

[pale sigil]

Everyone said I was crazy to think it was mobo

Being on beta drivers

[thick elk]

Mobo is still plausible, you could try different bois versions.

[pale sigil]

I intend to

They seem pretty bad

But also my mobo has bricked itself twice

[fair gull]

never had that in all my years

the only time i had a bricked mobo was when i flashed the wrong bios myself

[timid chasm]

bricked

itself

twice

https://tenor.com/view/skeptical-futurama-fry-hmmm-i-got-my-eyes-on-you-gif-17101711

[fair gull]

i mean havent u heard of the self bricking mobos

[pale sigil]

For real, second time was on a random reboot

Firdt time was changing bios to default

Apparently not the only one

According to reddit

[fair gull]

somehow doubt it wasnt just a time for a cmos clear

[pale sigil]

Luckily I have flashback

I'd rma it but fuck that

Not only was it a cpu/ram/mobo bundle

I don't have the original memory

And they'd want the whole lotn

[thick elk]

So when did the issues start?

[timid chasm]

for an rma?

I know they do that for returns but that seems odd for an rma

[fair gull]

was a bundle or smth

thats why

apparently

[timid chasm]

yeah but rma pieces that work for 1 item? that's insane

[pale sigil]

The store would rather me do it via them the firdt year

After that manufacturer

[timid chasm]

That's just asking for more trouble

[pale sigil]

Well nah cos that's how it works here

[timid chasm]

"Here let us rma your motherboard. Ooops you got a faulty set of memory in this bundle"

[thick elk]

Interesting, most stores perfer it if you handle it via the manufacturer, as it saves them work.

[pale sigil]

I think you can still be fine

With the bundle and not giving a specific part

But

Again I'd rather not deal with sending them the whole bundle

[timid chasm]

I totally get it for returning a purchase that makes complete sense

[pale sigil]

Afaik they ask for the entire thing in a special box you had to keep

[timid chasm]

but it makes 0 sense for an rma

[pale sigil]

Or have to pay for a new box

I did not keep the box

Cos it was a huge ass box

[fair gull]

bruh what complex store did u buy this from lol

[pale sigil]

Scan

[timid chasm]

scam?

[fair gull]

i prefer my customers RMA'ing directly to the manufacturer

saves me all the shit with dealing with all of it

[pale sigil]

https://www.scan.co.uk/help/3xs/support/3xs-warranty

Hmm their wording seems like they cover parts

[fair gull]

ya but only the labour and parts

ud still pay all the shipping

lol

[pale sigil]

I mean

Id rather just get mum to drive me

Lol

[thick elk]

Parts and labour covered does not mean sending back individual parts.

[pale sigil]

But corona

@thick elk does seem that way

Must just be pre builds

[thick elk]

So when did the freezes start happening?
Anything you changed in your setup at that time?

drivers / hardware, maybe even the point you added the ups.

[pale sigil]

Tbf technically I have tech support so I could just give em my system but fuck that haha

[timid chasm]

cause of all the hentai they'd find?

[fair gull]

na cause callum cant get his addiction fix for a day or 2

[pale sigil]

I've re installed windows, drivers via ddu safe mode, memtest, GPU test etc

Guys

I have an ipad for a reason

[timid chasm]

Right, for the hentai

[pale sigil]

No hentai or porn is in my pc

Period

[fair gull]

why did u ask me what do to in the time tests run then

[timid chasm]

fair enough

[fair gull]

the f

i sure do hope theres no porn or hentai in ur pc cause that would impact airflow

[pale sigil]

So most of the time if I play a game It runs well, but if j go to play another I have to reboot

[timid chasm]

Indian in the cupboard except it's hentai in the chassis

loli in the chassis*

[pale sigil]

Otherwise my game just freezes randomly

To the point its unplayable

Dx12 also doesn't play nice

[fair gull]

inb4 its what happened on rtx20 launch

[pale sigil]

I have insane issues with Dx12, I know dx12 sucks ass

[fair gull]

and the drivers are just garbage for months

[pale sigil]

But I never had these issues with 1070ti

[fair gull]

dx12 runs damn nice on my card

[pale sigil]

First major red flag was my previous Windows install

[fair gull]

dunno what sucking ass u experienced

[timid chasm]

dx12 is always great for me as well

[pale sigil]

Playing games like cp77 was impossible

<60 fps even on low

[fair gull]

the only time i had a non working system with anything above dx9

[pale sigil]

But a new install fixed thst dramatically

[fair gull]

was the first 3 months of 20series release aka getting my pc

[pale sigil]

But now it's freezing mostly

[fair gull]

after that nvidia fixed drivers and now shit doesnt bsod my pc anymore

[thick elk]

What psu do you have, I heard some reports of the peaks tripping ocp sometimes which could explain freezes.

[timid chasm]

I occasionally get stutters on games but I know it's just some setting or something in the background being a dick and I haven't bothered to find it yet

[fair gull]

doesnt ocp shut off the system

why would any ocp keep the system running if it detects dangerous peaks

[timid chasm]

When the division first came out my mouse at 1000 polling was causing weird shit. So annoying.

[pale sigil]

https://www.scan.co.uk/products/750w-evga-supernova-750-g1plus-full-modular-80plus-gold-sli-crossfire-single-rail-624a-135mm-fan-atx

[fair gull]

oof single rail

[timid chasm]

lol I knew it was coming

[pale sigil]

Please don't tell me

Please please

Don't tell me

Dont be plebs

And just say it

[fair gull]

na just personally prefer dual rail psus

[pale sigil]

It can't be power draw because I never had any of these issues before

[fair gull]

lol

[thick elk]

does it shut down on freeze or does it just keep running frozen?

[fair gull]

"my pc cant be broken cause i never had any issues before"

[pale sigil]

OK I should specific what I mean by freeze

It's like stuttering but it's longer and more aggressive

[fair gull]

so

not freezing

[pale sigil]

Completely freeze for a good second

It doesn't feel like stuttering

[fair gull]

low fps != freeze(?)

[pale sigil]

Wot

No

It's a complete freeze

Game judt stoos

Stops

[fair gull]

bruh

ever heard of 1fps

the game looks the exact same for 1 second

no matter what u press

[thick elk]

Anyway there does seem to be a decent number of reports with your specific psu:
https://www.reddit.com/r/EVGA/comments/j5zvx6/3080_ftw3_ultra_with_a_evga_supernova_ga_750/
https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=750W SuperNOVA 3080 crashing

This may indicate something, maybe not OCP but just not handling the load / causing voltage drops.

[fair gull]

inb4 its just the gpu throtteling cause of voltage supply dropping sometimes

[thick elk]

Try contacting EVGA about it, this guy on reddit did:
"Contacted EVGA about my 850 GA today. Has been shutting down while gaming with ROG STRIX 3090. EVGA confirmed that there is a problem with the RTX 3090 and the GA power supply.

Customer service was great. They are sending me a 1000w G+ . If that's not available, they are sending the next better psu up from there. But did say it would be a 1000w power supply."

It may be worthwile at least.

[pale sigil]

Oh

I'll look into it

Thanks qlum

Greatly appreciate it

[thick elk]

NP, I know how frustrating these kinds of issues are.

[pale sigil]

It really is

It's unbearable

[ashen spindle]

all I'm saying, should've gone with SeaSonic™ the official WootingKB™ partner

[zenith sonnet]

@pale sigil Do you use sleep mode?

[pale sigil]

@zenith sonnet nope

@ashen spindle they haven't been partnered in a long time

[ashen spindle]

oh rip

[pale sigil]

I think 2 years now?

Won't say why like

[ashen spindle]

well there isn't really announcement of end of partnerships so usually not something one notices

unless something really extreme happens

[reef patrol]

News to me as well 😄

[pale sigil]

@reef patrol really?

you xD

of all people

[fair gull]

mansen caused it confirmed

[pale sigil]

"3. Improve system stability"

BIOS updates

lol

[fair gull]

thats

every nintendo update without a major number increase ever

"system stability" improvements

[reef patrol]

Me - The guy with ADHD and the memory of a sieve/colander? 😛

[pale sigil]

what were we talking about again

[reef patrol]

[ashen spindle]

ducks

[reef patrol]

[fair gull]

oh wait this isnt furry talk?

guess imma go

[pale sigil]

the shit i have to do to get back my pendrive cos of the tool memtest used

[fair gull]

thats how most linux distros/dos do it tho

[pale sigil]

ye i know but its unfriendly for windows

when a normal user follows a guide for memtest

[fair gull]

is it?

[pale sigil]

they might be confused

[fair gull]

burn a cd

easy fix

[pale sigil]

on why their usb is now only 10kb

xD

[reef patrol]

Oh nooooo. You poooooor thing 😄

I did this several times a day when I worked support.

Just need a clean btw. Anything after that can be handled by a GUI

[crimson wigeon]

Well a "normal user" is probably not going to use fancy crap like memtest but basic crap like the Windows Memory Diagnostic

[reef patrol]

To an extent. I'm pretty sure memtest has a tool that makes the drive for you.

To the point of being able to follow simple instructions.

[pale sigil]

yes and it does what i just said

lol

which is why im saying it

wait

my psu came with my gpu

does that mean i cant rma it?

its still a purchase

[fair gull]

lol

[pale sigil]

if it is the pus

psu i mean

im gonna do a bynch of stuff first

[old marlin]

you are still eligeble for rmas

[lethal wasp]

Does bitcoin do anything remotely productive aside from create significant silicon shortages, pollution and income for neckbeards?

[fair gull]

yes

solves math equations no one needs solved

[lethal wasp]

so it's not even a cure for cancer, just a contributor to it, pog

[fair gull]

unless u do smth like folding@home ure not contributing shit anywhere

[crimson wigeon]

CURECOIN!

[lethal wasp]

It would bring me joy to see it dissolve overnight

all those people that would suddenly have to actually contribute to society lol

[fair gull]

like elon musk?

[lethal wasp]

bitcoin is dirt on his shoe in the grand scheme of things

[fair gull]

thats what u say

maybe elon is making his own cryptocurrency which actually cracks passwords using those hundreds of terahashes per second

[pale sigil]

anyway

gonna update me bios

cos why not

[reef patrol]

[pale sigil]

its already 5 out of date

and i only just updated it

lol

well some great news

my wooting is fixed

had to replace the switchs

[fair gull]

"5 out of date"

thats a weird

uh

amount

[reef patrol]

Imperial units.

[fair gull]

same my w1 is also fixed

[pale sigil]

You managed to fix it????

[fair gull]

yes its a razer chroma now

[pale sigil]

Wot

[reef patrol]

One hell of a coffee machine xD

1500 W TDP and water cooled 😄

[fair gull]

i3 coffee machine?

what

[pale sigil]

So ugh

Should I try under volting

[reef patrol]

Reduces heat, reduces stability 😄

[cursive summit]

I had to look that shit up

Thank god it's fake

As in the coffee machine doesn't have an Intel chip, otherwise my wallet will become a bit lighter

Man imagine playing Skyrim on a coffee machine

[wheat plume]

the noises the disk drive made on bootup scared me for a moment

[fair gull]

https://discordjs.moe/aKiVIfibho.png

finally figured out how to configure usg behind fritzbox

ipv6 finally works flawless

pihole also blocks as expected

[pale sigil]

I haven't used pinhole

Since testing it thst time

:/

[fair gull]

pinhole?

[pale sigil]

Still waiting for the unit to be put in

Grrr this is pissing me off

[reef patrol]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6X7OmGvgVXg

[fair gull]

folding phone or smth idk

[wheat plume]

I like gnome boxes

good VM manager

[chrome estuary]

iirc gnome boxes just uses KVM right?

or uh

qemu

[crimson wigeon]

Yurp

[wheat plume]

I think so

[reef patrol]

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jlafleur/ready-model-100-portable-computer-kit/posts

This is rad. Would love to own something like this... But imports xD

[reef patrol]

Oof... Found a 3080 locally. But it's already at 1100€ and people keep bidding.

Why did you have to learn to love your 3080, Callum. Whyyy xD

1200! REEEEEE

[wheat plume]

Since the new M1 processor, this hasn't aged well :')

[ivory geyser]

Well the M1 isnt exactly quicker than PCs.

[ashen spindle]

dumb clickbait titles aren't ageing well? waow

[ivory geyser]

But it is more effective.

And it is top-dog in laptops.

[wheat plume]

It's quicker than a lot of laptops

[ivory geyser]

Like, no questions asked

Yes

And PCs arent Laptops

[wheat plume]

True

[ivory geyser]

Dont get me wrong, I think it is a pretty lit chip

[wheat plume]

My friend texted me yesterday asking if it's a good trade to trade in her gtx 1650 gaming laptop for a new m1 macbook air

Cause she says the gaming laptop is too heavy and battery life is crap for college

[ashen spindle]

LTT is just an entertainment channel anyway, not really review content or anything like that for a while now

[reef patrol]

I mean... That's a fair point. Unless you want to do 3D work 😄

My 1060 Lenovo Legion wasn't exactly lightweight.

[wheat plume]

She uses it for college
Mostly web browser and documents and some light photo editing

[reef patrol]

Then an M1 would be a great sweet spot.

Just uh... make sure to set up backups 😄

[wheat plume]

Hmm?

[reef patrol]

If a Mac breaks, you're not getting your data back.

So... put all of that uni work in a Dropbox or something.

[wheat plume]

Oooh

[ashen spindle]

if you dont back up college work you're doing something wrong massively anyway xD

[reef patrol]

You'd be surprised... so surprised 😄

[ashen spindle]

I'm not saying everyone does it :p they should though

[ivory geyser]

If you dont back up ANY KIND OF WORK, you are doing something massively wrong

[wheat plume]

^^

[ivory geyser]

I mean, I have 13 gigs of lore info related items for my book and world on Google drive

[wheat plume]

ManjarOwO

[zenith sonnet]

I need a new dishwasher
Any recommendations?

Oh
I don't mean my wife

[reef patrol]

Whatever fits your needs sizewise.

When we bought ours we went to one of the big dealers and basically haggled a bit to get a decent deal. And delivery/installation.

[fickle ore]

@zenith sonnet I can recommend a brand

ASKO

[zenith sonnet]

That's what I think. There's a larger gap in quality between different models than might appear at first glance

[timid chasm]

There's probably some basic features to expect and maybe some with a better...like "internal setup"? I suspect some probably don't wash as well depending on how they dispense the water

If I were to get a new one I just know I'd try and get one that hides the heating element if possible. Lost a few plastics from them falling on it and them melting lol

[warm arch]

Will a Wooting Two TKL be released any time soon? @fallow bison @reef patrol

[cursive summit]

The old dog returning to AMD might be really good

AMD's GPU designs were siiiick back then

We might have not boring cover styles now

@warm arch Wooting Two TKL is Wooting One

[warm arch]

no its not

[cursive summit]

Yes it is

[warm arch]

the wooting two has way better actuation points

[cursive summit]

You missed "HE" somewhere over there

[warm arch]

wait what

[cursive summit]

Wooting Two HE? No?

Wooting One is Wooting Two TKL

[warm arch]

oh right

are u sure

[cursive summit]

So yeah, Wooting HE TKL is not coming this year

[warm arch]

okay

[cursive summit]

Wooting HE smaller than TKL is coming this year

There'll be 3 HE models

[warm arch]

wait what do you mean

as in there will be a wooting two HE that is not tkl but smaller than 100%

[cursive summit]

Wooting Two HE <- Full size
Wooting Something <- TKL size
Wooting something again <- smaller than TKL, this year

[warm arch]

so they arent making a tkl this year but they are making somethinjg smaller than a tkl this year

that makes no sense

[cursive summit]

Yep

It does

[warm arch]

How

[cursive summit]

Cause people want it?

[warm arch]

Surely more people would want the TKL

no @prisma crag

he is saying smaller than tKL will be this year

[cursive summit]

@prisma crag If yesterday's stream is anything to go by it is still on track for this year

[warm arch]

and TKL will be mext

so will it be cheaper or more expensive than the current TE

or do u not know

[cursive summit]

They literally said Wooting Two HE will be in consumer's hands in May, late 2021 we'll have 60% or something Wooting HE, and sometime in the future we may get Wooting HE TKL

[warm arch]

thats gas

[cursive summit]

May not but who knows

Kevin said they will make one

[warm arch]

hopefully it does

[cursive summit]

Well they have limited design capacity

They are designing multiple keyboard and mousepad models

With plans for mouses

What no, their mousepads are phenomenal

Keyboards are great

[crisp granite]

yeah

we needed a 4x6 macropad to the left of the alpha numeric cluster

[cursive summit]

Tbh why would you include 24 extra keys for a jacked up price when like only a few people will barely use

[crisp granite]

like a corsair keeb, but way better

[crisp granite]

because macros are great for workflow

[cursive summit]

But.. Wooting already supports macros.

[crisp granite]

but...dedicated keys

[cursive summit]

But.. who the f would use them?

I certainly won't

I don't want the price of the keyboard being jacked up cause someone felt entitled for two dozens of keys

[crisp granite]

I do

[cursive summit]

Well yeah I also use a numpad, at times.

I kinda got used to the TKL

[timid chasm]

always use numpad for number entry

[crisp granite]

for a bank of inventory keys for modded minecraft

as well as number input

[cursive summit]

Tbh I have an USB numpad

But I don't use it

I got used to the TKL

[timid chasm]

I missed the numpad so much when I first got the Wooting One

[cursive summit]

Same

At first it felt bare weird

But then I actually came to like the TKL

I prefer a lot more space for my mouse

[crisp granite]

personally, I could go down to a TKL at smallest

since I need the arrow keys and I really like the function keys for gaming

miss me with that fn shit

[timid chasm]

Not sure how that's relevant to a numpad, tbh

[crisp granite]

yeah

I could go full boomer and talk about the AT layout being the best layout, if you'd like?

[timid chasm]

When writing papers

[cursive summit]

Dunno what you people are on about anymore

[crisp granite]

honestly, neither do I

[cursive summit]

Just weird circlejerking

[timid chasm]

as opposed to normal circlejerking

[cursive summit]

What's normal and weird is subjective

[timid chasm]

aren't all words defined?

at least real words

[reef patrol]

Based on... what? Your own personal preferences? 😄
TKL is less popular than full-size as is.

[timid chasm]

Definitely feels subjective

[cursive summit]

Wasn't there some data from Wooting boys saying that Wooting Full size sold massively more than TKL?

[timid chasm]

unless it's maybe..math or something?

Well the Two had more backers so that isn't much of an argument

vs 906

[cursive summit]

Imagine actually disclosing your financial earnings as a company

[formal meteor]

My brain made me think the MSRP for the 3080 was 800

Don't know why but gotta shell out more for a trade up rip

[cursive summit]

Well this makes.. absolutely zero sense.

But I mean, why the hell not?

It's more interesting then the new minor change to some phone UI

[static acorn]

what's the average age on here anyway? 🤔

also, dishwashers are great, I wouldn't want to wash my dishes by hand anymore

ouch, I'm old

[misty saffron]

but regulars on this server are actually sane

i’m actually quite amazed by how many servers that are supposed to be all about a certain topic turned into lgbt propaganda garbage

don’t get me wrong, i have nothing against lgbt people, but when every single conversation is about how they’re trans it’s quite fucking annoying

not overexaggerating: every single conversation

[zenith sonnet]

That's not the way to be recognised as 'normal people like everyone else'

But eh, whatever

The way to go should be the one where you don't feel the need to mention it at all

[cursive summit]

I beg to disagree

[misty saffron]

yeah sorry except for you

[cursive summit]

Thanks my cheliabinskiy bratan

[misty saffron]

fuck dishwashers

just use plastic plates

[zenith sonnet]

Only things missing are automatically opening/closing door, unauthorizered user activation prevention and fully touch controls

But those aren't worth 650€ to me :p

And the full touch might actually be a downgrade

[cursive summit]

Insert a comical "girls are dishwashers" joke

Which hasn't aged at all in 2021

[misty saffron]

yeah i wish

my girlfriend is about as lazy as i am

[cursive summit]

Fam same

[zenith sonnet]

Mine already went berserk thinking about washing dishes for 10 weeks

[misty saffron]

i’m lazy but i wash them properly

[cursive summit]

Especially inbetween the fork teeth

I have been doing dishes for the past half a year or so

[misty saffron]

like what’s hard about actually using the sponge with the forks???

[cursive summit]

No dish washing, nada. Just good old Fairy and a double sided sponge for scrubbing

[zenith sonnet]

Tbh, regularly missing salt & rinse aid are part of the reason why I wanted the AutoDos feature that automatically doses detergent, rinse aid and salt

[cursive summit]

Sometimes though the sponge can't reach inbetween the fork teeth and I fail to notice

So yeah, have to do the dishes for the second time

[misty saffron]

i understood about a half of that

[zenith sonnet]

Never in my life seen a dish washer that doesn't need it

Maybe it's added to the detergent in other places?

Our water has about 14 °dH hardness, so it's a must have

Yeah, that'll do it

[misty saffron]

14????

what the fuck

where do you live

[zenith sonnet]

Rhineland

[misty saffron]

which is

[cursive summit]

Germany

[zenith sonnet]

Somewhere in southwest Germany

[cursive summit]

Near France iirc

[zenith sonnet]

Yes

[cursive summit]

Or Netherlands?

More towards netherlands

[misty saffron]

wtf

and i thought our 4 dH is bad

[zenith sonnet]

Actually more towards France

The Rhine is long

[misty saffron]

mind you i live literally in the mountains so lotta calcium

[cursive summit]

Hm, I guess it makes sense considering Rhineland was delimitarized

[zenith sonnet]

Our hardness is mostly Calcium as well

[broken pollen]

lol

[shadow minnow]

Any advice, or other good fan recommendations?

[misty pier]

noctua 😎

or arctic, those are good imo

[shadow minnow]

Well, yeah, but as I said, issue with noctua their best fans are currently only in brown which imo looks horrible, if you are not going for industrial look. Also no fans have any LEDs or anything. MLs are good, but there is black version that is just too boring, led versions sadly do not have turnable off LEDs, and RGB version is slower, so with worse top performance

[shadow minnow]

I mean, I want to use leds sometimes, but not all the time. And about colors, if I had to go non led, then black is definitely better, but do not want to go black cause I would rather go colors

[thick elk]

arctic p12-14 are still a great option.

[shadow minnow]

Most of RGB fans have LEDs turnable off, but there is the issue of slower rpm and top performance

[thick elk]

just no leds

perform better than the corsairs but are a bit more annoying to clean.

[shadow minnow]

I do not know of nearly any controllable RGB fan with not turnable off leds

But maybe I will at the end just have to go for normal non RGB fan

[thick elk]

if you can control the color, you can always set all 3 color values to 0 turning it off.

or generally at least.

[shadow minnow]

Yeah. Sadly my favorite fans, Corsair MLs have RGB version which is worse, or version with static color. One of these looks really nice, but sadly, the LEDs can never be turned off, which is not the best.

[thick elk]

for me it's about optimizing noise profiles and arctic p-14's really are much better than the stock fans which have worn out after 4 years or so.

also they are not expensive / are easy to chain.

the pst version at least.

[shadow minnow]

I hope noctua will release chromax version of nf a12x25

[crisp granite]

well then

it's on the roadmap

along with that "next gen" D15

fuck yeah

wdym?

[ashen spindle]

dimensions

[crisp granite]

ah

yes

the NF-A12 is a 120mm fan

x25 that is 25mm thicc

25mm of thicc

[shadow minnow]

Hope it does not get delayed again, was scheduled for 2020 before

@wheat plume well no, Harry Potter was captured on 4k cameras

[wheat plume]

oh...

oh wow

[pale sigil]

Or well

Originally shot in very very high quality

And released at low

[reef patrol]

Yes and no.

They often do this to be able to crop stuff.

[wheat plume]

Yeah, it is locked to 21:9

[reef patrol]

When Blu-Ray became a thing they re-released a ton of of 38mm? film movies.

Because they had the resolution.

[pale sigil]

For different countries

Ye

but the book is philosopher's right?

[crisp granite]

it was originally sorcerers iirc

[pale sigil]

The UK version is called ps

[wheat plume]

wtf :')

[reef tundra]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[ivory geyser]

It is called "philosopher's stone", because it has an ability to keep someone alive far beyond their years and transmute stuff - just like the "real" philosopher's stone from actually existing alchemical writings.

[neat oriole]

Lot of old films that get 4K re-releases are just upscaled with less film grain

[wheat plume]

I looked it up

[reef patrol]

Lot are. Lot aren't.

[wheat plume]

its called Sorcerer's stone in America cause people cant spell Philosopher

.-.

[reef patrol]

Ultimately depends on the medium they were recorded on, and how they did post-processing 😄

[neat oriole]

Mostly depends on how the original master file was made

[broken pollen]

i thought it was philosophers stone

[neat oriole]

I think only UK/commonwealth places got philosophers stone?

[reef patrol]

Danish as well.

Translated admittedly, but it IS referring specifically to the fabled stone 😄

Whoever decided to call it Sorcerer's anywhere needs to be hit with a book...or three.

[wheat plume]

I dont like the new news widget.....I know full well that will be used to send ads .-.

[ivory geyser]

And again they are shoving random trash in the system

Instead of fucking explorer tabs

[wheat plume]

^^^

and redesign for explorer

[ivory geyser]

Yea that too

[cursive summit]

So, as far as I'm seeing it's all aesthetics

Well, don't give a fuck anyways

Win10 already has everything I need

[wheat plume]

how is file explorer aesthetic in any way?

[reef tundra]

Can they first consolidate the design across the entire OS and its various menu's instead of having an mix of windows XP, 7, 8, 10 and new age bs

[wheat plume]

The only way it can make the design consistent is to habe a theme engine to enforce it

[reef tundra]

And so they fixed it by adding animations

[wheat plume]

and a widgit toolkit to let third parties use to make their apps UI similiar

[reef tundra]

Sorry windows doesnt speak in standards

[wheat plume]

true .-.

cnat even play mkv videos by default
or extract all file types

[cursive summit]

You people really like designs or something

[ashen spindle]

I mean, tabs might be usefull but otherwise I don't really want them to touch the explorer much if at all

[cursive summit]

Man all I care about is functionality and Windows works fine already

[ashen spindle]

I dont want to deal having to explain people where new stuff is located

[cursive summit]

Get your aesthetic shit out of my windows, I want it clean and fast

[reef tundra]

I can just patch my windows manager to handle tabs if i wanted to. take that win32.h

[ivory geyser]

You can have aesthetics along with clean and fast..

[cursive summit]

Well if you people like that you can just download themes or something

I really don't care for that particular aspect

[reef tundra]

Use linux and customise it to exactly what you want it to look like

[ashen spindle]

yeah since you can customise stuff anyway, no need for changing defaults that work perfectly well imo

especially not to just constantly fit the latest trend in the design space

cba having a different explorer every quarter

[reef tundra]

The current design trend is to remove functionality and hide it into submenus. so you have to click around to find that submenu

[ivory geyser]

That is a not a design trend, that is companies catering to people with phones.

[cursive summit]

At least they could make all of their weird changes opt-in

Now I just don't want to update my Windows whenever a new patch comes out

But crap like Spectre come up and you are essentially forced to

[old marlin]

do you even know how spectre makes you vulnerable

cause if spectre makes you vulnerable on a windows computer you should probably change your OS

[reef tundra]

All they do is speculate what it could do

[old marlin]

no

they know what it does

[reef tundra]

https://tenor.com/view/im-funny-laughing-dos-equis-gif-7272289

[ivory geyser]

Specte is not Windows-based

[old marlin]

ik

meltdown and spectre are for escaping VMs

[reef tundra]

nah, they meltdown the nuclear reactor in your cpu

[old marlin]

ah fuck

valid points coming up

gotta get those unfunny jokes out

almost all of the intel security problems are entirely irrelevant to end users

[reef tundra]

The problem with the exploits was that you could run abitrary code abusing the speculation feature of the CPU. The worst kind of exploit, pretty much. Full unadulterated access

[ashen spindle]

any end user that could be hit by spec-ex attacks would instead just be hit with generic virus instead because why would anyone event try this when it's not gaining you anything compared to stealing passwords or locking data for a ransom

[reef tundra]

Because it also allows full access to the RAM

The one true way to protect your pc is to unplug the power cord

[old marlin]

not like windows has those security holes with any CPU?

full ram access is also permitted via admin/system rights

and executing arbitrary code by executing code at all

is not an exploit

it is called

executing code

only relevant if you run VMs

cause you can/could break out

[reef tundra]

... it allowed you to break out of the OS. Ignoring whatever security settings the OS has set up.

[old marlin]

you still can do all you could do with it

other than breaking out of VMs

[pale sigil]

Evga want me to check my voltages in the bios

[reef patrol]

For what purpose 😄

[ashen spindle]

fixing his gpu he keeps breaking :p

[reef patrol]

I feel bad for that GPU. It should be rescued and rehomed 😄

[pale sigil]

No?

[reef patrol]

[reef tundra]

Give it the 12v should be enough

[ashen spindle]

24pin into gpu directly

[reef tundra]

-12v rail as ground and the 12v rail to power it

[ashen spindle]

to continue from game talk, yea, bad devs fits because we are talking about JS already, should've been obvious 😛

[halcyon moss]

ooh thats an easy blow :p

[crimson wigeon]

Heh yeah

[reef tundra]

Javascript? more like, get a grip on life script

[crimson wigeon]

And they don't even notice their APIs are nonsense because JS is very fast and loose with types

[reef tundra]

Shoot first, identify later

[halcyon moss]

tbf, json https is very nice compared to.. SOAP

soap is a "standard"

[crimson wigeon]

But yurp JSON is plenty nice and probably the finest we have that's still human readable

[reef tundra]

csv

[halcyon moss]

lol

[crimson wigeon]

You can take your commas and shove them

[halcyon moss]

quoted csv? tsv?

excel csv?

[ashen spindle]

yea aside from when I need to know if the number is a float or double it's quite nice

[crimson wigeon]

Just always assume double, everything's 64 bit anyway ecksdee

[reef tundra]

What about those fancy 128 bit ones?

[halcyon moss]

The JavaScript Number type is a double-precision 64-bit binary format IEEE 754 value, like double in Java or C#. This means it can represent fractional values, but there are some limits to what it can store. A Number only keeps about 17 decimal places of precision; arithmetic is subject to rounding. The largest value a Number can hold is about 1.8×10308. Numbers beyond that are replaced with the special Number constant Infinity.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Number

[ashen spindle]

well if I want precision sure, but it was a weird thing and I needed to know which on it is to save changing it etc.

[reef tundra]

Floating point operations cost too many cycles when you got no floating point unit.

[halcyon moss]

i get what you're saying, yet v8 is on par with most lower level languages on a lot of things

[reef tundra]

Also floating point numbers can be a headache when you have to do arithmitic operations on.

[halcyon moss]

true.

Python3 has a int devision for that

In [1]: 5/2                                                                                              
Out[1]: 2.5

In [2]: 5//2                                                                                             
Out[2]: 2

[pale sigil]

So according to evga

12v should change

Up to 0.5v

Every few seconds

But it's staying at 12.076v in the bios

And not once changes

So I guess that's fine?

"The 12v rail should read between 11.8v and 12.4v . It should be stable, with little to no fluctuations. A slight fluctuation of up to .05v is generally fine as long as it happens no more than once every 10-15 seconds. A larger fluctuation"

I don't get how this can show an issue

They said I should try and check it under load with a multi meter

[reef patrol]

... the fuck

Send it in! xD

This is not something a consumer should be asked to do. Ever.

[ashen spindle]

no this would mean its something with the board not the card

so sending in the card wouldnt do anything

[pale sigil]

Nono

It's lot the card

XD

It's the psu

That's what this is ahout

I have an msi card

[reef tundra]

Switching power supplies need an load to have an stable output.
