ffs
but if you want terminal and you already have it, just don't continue writing the word?
dont see the issue here
Iirc doesn’t Term also bring up CMD? Or didn’t it used to?
depends on if you have terminal installed or nor
which is why it's just an akward situation but not really something I'd blame ms for doing that way
Cmd is just a hard coded response to terminal
Always has been
No matter what you do command prompt will always show
When you type terminal
yes
don't think it will not that it should
I usually just either keep it bound to a macro or on my hotbar.
Haven’t opened a terminal the old way in ages. 
Windows terminal open via ctrl alt t when
Hmm.
right now
What
It still doesn't do winkey binds so completely useless it is
It still doesn't do winkey binds so completely useless it is
LuaMacros is your friend.
Make macro to make macro. Monke brain stronk.
It has to be a shortcut?
How do you never see the shortcut option

Ugh
Shortcut makes an icon.
Shortcut key
Yes but you can just hide them in a folder like
Executable properties allows you to trigger shortcut keys.
Whoa there - That Mac nostalgia icon.
Also discord keeps failing to send messages, noice
LuaMacros is by far the best solution if you wanna put a few hours in. Nothing comes close, sadly.
"Don't use this software. Really. It's difficult to use, has bugs and the author has very little time to maintain it. It was written just to connect multiple keyboards to a flight simulator (X-Plane) to control different knobs and buttons in the plane/helicopter. The author is using it just for this purpose."
XD directly from the source
Fucking Lua. Pseudocode bullshit.
Doesn't give me much confidence
Mhmm, but the functionality is the best of the options.
how you get to that window?
Which is depressing.
Right clock and properties
@pale sigil The reason LuaMacros is so good is it allows you to bind beyond F12 into macros and that means you get infinite macro stacks.
You can literally bind all the stuff.
right click shows no properties option
@wheat plume Find the executable of whatever it is and right click properties.
What you see in start is just a shortcut
oh now I need to find where UWP apps are located
Or just drag it out from the start menu
Right click shortcut properties and click open file location.
Proceed to properties.
it no work when I assign shortcut
nope, bc I almost never used it
HyperX, the gaming division of Kingston Technology Company, Inc. and brand leader in gaming and esports, today announced the release of three high-speed Predator DDR4 memory kits in 5000MHz, 5133MHz and 5333MHz frequency versions. The new frequency options will be available as 8GB modules in kits of two and include a black aluminum heat spreader...
yahoo
announcement that they now offer the same as others
i am now getting twice as much lol
Jeeeeeeeez.
10 euro in 24 hours with a 2080 LUL
eth should get its shit together and go even higher
i like this
10k ayy lmao
What
LMAO my profitability is 0.00023040 btc
and it used to be 0.0001
i wish i had more gpus
Money printer go BRRRRRRRR
I want to mine but bleh
shrugs Nothing particularly wrong with mining.
Hate leaving my system on 24/7
then dont
you dont have to run it 24/7
Room also becomes awfully hot
Or when I sleep but then I won't be able to sleep because its to warm
Not worth 16 USD daily?
16 if I run it 24/7
6 grand USD yearly for doing nothing.
Fuck all if I run it for a few hours
Hundreds of spare free dollars.
You look at it the wrong way. In a decent job a promotion might mean 5 grand extra a year, maybe 10.
That is literally 2 GPUs and you do nothing.
For what amounts to a promotion you might get after 2 years of working.
shrugs Make mining rig and put it somewhere else.
And?
How much is your power?
Power is cheap af.
To much
You paying $3 USD/KWh?
Maybe then, sure.
But uhh...
Nowhere on earth is that high. :L
Then you're doing it wrong.
a 3080 makes about 15€ a day, with electricity costs around 1-2€ depending on your price
Profit of 13 USD per day at 0.2 USD/KWh.
Literally math, it's not going to lose money because you think it will.
Until such a point where Etherium or any other crypto isn't good to mine it'll be profitable. That ain't happening any time soon.
Yeah, you're mining Bitcoin with a GPU.
No shit the profits suck.
Bitcoin is completely dominated by ASICs, GPUs can't keep up.
But you mentioned my 3080 multiple times xD
Might change when PoS happens, but until then.
Aeon
?
dumbass question
can old ASICs do mining of other coins, or are they purpose built for something else?
Purpose built.
And quickly become obsolete.
because if so, might be able to breathe new life into old ones mining etherium
All ASICs mine certain algorithms, ASICs built toward SHA-256 will ONLY mine coins working on that.
Yeah... big source of IT garbage.
@pale sigil Go Ethermine.
:(
What's an average hash rate
Replace the wallet with yours and it's work with T-Rex.
Average hash rate depends on the card.
My 3070s usually hit 62.5MH/s.
Aren't there any services like nice hash
yeah asics suck, they are looking at using 5nm tsmc capacity soon which is just a tragic waste of actual resource capacity
Yes.
HiveOS.
Full fat operating system built to mine.
Very simple to use, but it's an OS, needs a dedi miner.
Burn more resources for this awesome virtual currency of the future that's not even remotely ready to handle actual transactions Pepega
people pay real money for these virtual coins
so just add that extra step
@crimson wigeon Oh ikr. Honestly I just wanna see how banks try and integrate this with COBOL.
and you're golden
Nah.
Lmaooooooo
Fuck it, write the backend in COBOL and everything else in LUA.
Run it in ComputerCraft.
Very pog.
As long as you can sell it who cares
so of the 5 people in the world that can do cobol, 2 would work on this and one actually understands it 
Lmao
Oh fuck yeah, a stain on my stats for when the power went out.
Sick.
Panels shipped in 3 to 5 months from AliExpress.
XD
quality for the price, not quality
Wym?
for the price you pay, just be glad that the glass didn't come pre shattered
Free things have an infinite price to performance ratio. 
Or that doesn't work due to how relatively inefficient virtualization is
why do you want to vm it 
Dunno, maximizing profits
Just dual boot or use a batch file.
You wanna know stonks? Grab yourself a big fuck off loan from fam and go build a dedi rig.
Just do your research prior and you’ll be fine.
Yeah I ain't shooting myself in a foot with that
I’m on $25,000 rn.
I might be retarded but I'm not that retarded
Which one of us makes a grand a week doing nothing?
Ah yes.
I do.
I say again. Do your research, learn the systems and understand it.
Test in Ethermine, and then go grab an investment.
Treat it like a business deal because that’s what it is.
So, what's a good cryptowallet
well... is that 1k usd gross profit or net profit?
Metamask for starting out.
gross
and your net?
Gross profit. Take $40 AUD off.
So... about $1.250/week.
At least so long as this holds out.
With zero luck? Net of around $450 AUD/week.
my stonks going up without any cost
Your stonks also require constant luck and can crash extremely quickly.
i dont touch it, i just watch
use google
if i had planned properly, i could have made quite a bit mining because the electricity here is flat fee
there are tons of easy tutorials
@cursive summit You need to learn how a blockchain works.
Go YouTube, don’t mine shit until you learn.
It’s not a plug and play solution if you want good money.
Generally speaking use T-Rex, grab your Etherium address AND YOU MAKE SURE TO TRIPLE CHECK EVERY ADDRESS EVERY TIME YOU EVER USE ONE EVER, throw it in, and run the batch.
you can make "some" money quickly and easily but its certainly not the min-max youll actually want to do to get the most money
Yep.
Damn near all miners are false flagged.
They need to be embedded pretty deep to work.
Just only ever use legit ones and check your checksums to be sure it’s not malware. Also be sure to only ever DL from official sources.
also they use so much of your hardware that windows will contemplate its life decisions
Doesn't help that for a while (and probably even still) naughty people hid miners as a kind of malware
my gpu (rx480 8gb) is still a decent mining card but i kinda need it rn to actually use computer...
Mmm.
ROI of a few months, no?
eh, roi is secondary, i already own it
i want to get a new card for games anyway so would not be too bad of a use of the old one
because selling it would be ehhh
3070 was my plan
Mmmm.
i waited for 30 series so i could upgrade but we all know how that went
Grabbing 3090 myself since I can get for WAY under street.
Can just throw one in an order from my supplier.
So I can mine from Windows right?
yous should seriously read up on this by just looking at the first google result over trusting random people with your hardware 
Yeah.
linux would mean less overhead so you may get a tad more performance but compatability ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Really super read on it.
I'm doing like 50% google 50% talking to people who do this shit for a living 
I suggest hitting up a few different subreddits as well. There’s a few really nice guides to starting Eth mining.
But holy shit, man.
Always remember your security.
You must remember that crypto is not a bank, you fuck up a transfer and the odds are extremely high that it’s gone forever. No insurance outside of certain circumstance.
And because of that you need to secure all of your stuff. Good passwords, common sense, 2FA on all the things, etc etc.
And never give your private keys or seed phrases to anyone regardless of what they say EVER.
So, internet security 101
Basically.
I think I'm fine on that front
Just remember that nobody will be around to help if you get burned. You’re your own help.
Keep paranoid and you’ll be fine.
Meh I'm not doing this for serious rn
Just want to see if this is worth it
FAM FUCK KASPERSKY FOR KEEPING ME SAFE
It keeps deleting the fucking bat files
Kaspersky is such half cancer but I love it
It completely bypasses my Ignore orders and keeps deleting the bats
Which is secure but eh 
Teamredminer seems to be exclusive for HiveOS
Check out PhoenixMiner. I know that works for AMD.
I think NBMiner also does but I can’t remember since I’ve been using Trex for ages.
Which card?
Looks right.
You could do some core tweaking, underclock core, overclock memory etc.
Reduce core voltage for overnight work.
My GPU isn't doing jack shit though
It’s mining.
Mhmm.
I heard it was supposed to be blazing
this channel was nicer when it was about tech not crypto
....
That’s DRAM, dude.
Ah VRAM
So so
So, the best question is
@fickle ore Funny that, I’d think it counts. :P
Where do I check what I earned 
What wallet address are you mining to?
Copy that bitch into there.
Should be able to see real time stats and all that such.
What's a miner address?
The wallet address.
Yee.
Apparently, it's not doing anything
Well, we'll see
I might look into optimizations and stuff
Brain is in total shut off rn
Exams and shit
Mm.
If it doesn’t work just check the bat file and make sure you used your Eth receive address, not the send one.
I’d also use a wallet application such as Exodus, desktop wallets are a very good thing to have since they can transfer many coins that aren’t purely on the Etherium blockchain.
There are two different addresses?
Yeh.
Eyy!!
Hey, nice!
Isn't 4.8MH/s like really bad?
Just give it 2 hours to catch up and you’ll see what it can do.
ive shown you my crypto wallet, show yours
Also remember that your hashrate will be a little fucked while your monitor is on since the GPU needs to actually render the screen.
Why tf am I earning 30$ monthly
shrugs Sure.
haha no
It seems to have 3GBs of VRAM free
The GPU is doing fuck all.
So long as you don’t completely ruin the VRAM you’ll be right.
Keep it light while mining and you’re all good. :)
ive only got 0.02 eth 😢
Use it all.

Use it all and the card freaks out hard at just having no VRAM left.
Huge stutters in game.
Man I was bamboozled and tricked into fucking my card 

But yeah, your gains will be a little screwy for the first few days while Ethermine actually works out your GPU chart.
Since you’re gaming, at least. Dedi miners seem to fully adjust in a matter of hours.
So I'm just supposed to leave this thing doing his thing
I imagine their power grid is pretty limited.
VPN & use binance and see if you have a method to draw cash out without ID. EU can draw without ID with a 1% cut
^
Basically that.
Iirc Binance can do PayPal, no?
@cursive summit Told you. :P
Yeah, that’s an issue.
Eh, you're not missing much anyway, FOMO runs high atm so it might feel like it
Disagree.
FOMO running high kicks your teeth in if you don’t have a supplier.
9 month ROI cards are FOMO being horrible.
The aim is 6 months and it’s kinda reasonable.
Not everyone wants to mine and bearish case it's already too late anyway
crypto sucks & would rather discuss real tech
How so? The ASICs aren’t taking over everything yet.
yea but with antminers trying to place orders at 5nm at tsmc that might push other orders back a bit too zzz
Where do they think they’ll be getting any supply for that?
Not like TSMC is making enough chips for that kind of work.
Just gotta hang in tight for awhile until digital yuan/usd and rip crypto 😛
@young pecan not dead but it will be a lot easier to prevent alternate currencies at national level, especially for china
That banks on crypto not getting widespread official support.
Could go either way.
Yes, in China it’ll likely end up a problem, but then I imagine all of the miners will simply move elsewhere.
Not like they’ll abandon their money printer.
shrugs A bunch of larger banks in the UK are designing their own coin.
Also Visa actively developing their own solution.
And Elon/etc hopping on.
Idk man, those are all pretty damn big players.
anything that's easier to tax will be done so
every european country is creating their own digital euro banking system atm
I just hope I have enough time to move my profits off of exchanges before the switch happens
After that good luck not getting caught
Oh please. You could move money in a matter of minutes. This kind of switch is years in the making.
And even then you can simply shift assets somewhere it’s legal.
welp
If you’re a big enough player that kind of move isn’t trivial, but still easy.
now I'm starting to think mining might just be a decent idea
at least for a little while
Yeee.
Aeon, any advice on how to start up?
Go do research into how a Blockchain works.
Start basic mining with Trex or something and do your testing.
After that locate cheap power or host it yourself and begin the farm.
I gloss over weeks of research, but you get the point.
power isn't that bad where I am, something like a third of what you pay iirc
Jesus fuck.
Then yeah, go research how crypto actually works and learn up on wallets, exchanges, blockchains, miners, pools, and PoS/PoW.
literally sell it to the US
aight
From there you’ll just pick up info and you’re gud.
aight
Righto sleep now because it’s 5am.
that is truly pog
a year?
Month
ok then
I actually plan on using my PC for other things at the same time as mining
I'll skip until I can build a separate mining rig
I'm down to 3TB on my main SSD 😦
oh boi
Shit my fan speed was capped at 38%
I feel like a peasant with my 2 one tb drives
And another 2x1TB on the side. 😄
(One of them not plugged in atm)
brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
WOOOOOOOOOOSH
(BLOWER CARD)
FEEL THE POWER
MUST YELL SO YOU CAN HEAR
OF THE JET ENGINE
At least at 50% fans the temps went down -10C
Actually my hashrate went up even more
Probably hit some thermal throttling and now it's relieved
Yeah I OC'd the memory a bit
Something like this, UNLIMITED POWER
dude
WHAT THE FUCK
FASTER
hm
I might be able to hit 100 MH/s if you can do that with your card
RTX 3000 cards are reportedly a hell of a lot faster for mining
I think my card is just working weirdly
Golden silicon?
Oh shit I shouldn't push this card much further
yep
Fell off a wee bit
But that's cause I stopped OCing it
I haven't really done much in terms of undervolting
@cursive summit Get some decent performance?
Doubtful. This popped up in the news instead
https://www.techpowerup.com/282003/intel-study-diversity-and-inclusion-in-gaming
In collaboration with Newzoo, Intel today released a report titled "Diversity and Inclusion in Gaming." This research identifies industry gaps and key insights in an effort to help make gaming more accessible and inclusive. "To strengthen diversity and inclusion across the gaming spac...
@zenith sonnet Oh fuck yeah, making an all inclusive activity that has shit all barriers more inclusive.
Cool af. But to who?
Outside of physical disabilities, I can't see that headline being anything other than pointless. :D
I'm so positive the wheelchaired gamer would prefer wheelchaired MCs over say, accessibility options
Ikr.
Fucking beautiful.
Play Tarvok with a wheelchaired character.
Super defo 1000% perfectly a priority.
Idk how this is so complex for people, y'know? Games are an art form, let them be art and not pander to random stuff of any kind.
Inputs on the other hand? Fuck yes make that shit modular and able to support damn near any input config.
the problem is vision and subtitles
cause white text black outline helvetica gets ultra boring after pretty much 1 hour
for the visually impaired, you can just improve the readability of your game
Fine, still not a problem. We have color blind modes and the such for that reason.
Proper colour blindness options are very rare
More R&D in them, sounds good.
valve was the best at it in the past
but basically you are supposed to be able to posterize the game to black and white (not even greyscale) and still be able to tell whats going on approximately
not only does this allow the colorblind to read the game, it helps the partially blind too, as well as reducing strain on normally sighted people
Not all games are narrated for those that can't read
Not all games have subtitles for those that can't hear
well i mean sorry to the first group
but subtitles are a problem
to be fair its not the illiterate
its the severe dislexics
but that can be fixed with proper font options
Fair play for games in a different language, but completely illiteracy? That one has me thinking.
its not as much about not being able to read at all
its about the brain not handling words properly
Most platforms don't even have dyslexic support, what's the solution for that?
fonts
Like, what's the best solution there? I'd assume simply have universal fonts.
all platforms support custom fonts as far as im aware
🤷♂️ thats accessibility options for you
its pretty tough to make a dislexia font to begin with
I have not seen a single game yet that offers Simple Language as an accessibility option, yet
making one that also is effective and doesnt look like garbage is super tough
yea well
well who benefits from that tho?
Kinda difficult to really do it, y'know? Accessibility as a whole, I mean.
People who rely on it to understand content
There's always going to be an outlier case of 'I struggle here' and if you're trying to let everyone in it becomes an impossible challenge.
Hmm.
Gotta be a solution of some kind there, and it's clearly not the job of dev teams, it's too much work to actually do.
name a single narrative game with simpler themes than narrative?
People who need Simple Language can understand the stories and how games work.
It is using a significantly reduced vocabulary and altered grammar to make it extremely easy to comprehend.
Y'know what, man?
my point still stands
That sounds like a problem for such a small amount of people that nobody is going to do it.
if you cant understand the narrative how could you understand the plot
Yes, you can. Entire books have been rewritten in Simple Language. It's a thing.
im also not aware of a narrative game that both requires the narrative to progress and is simple enough that the developmentally challenged could play them
Bruh, a videogame isn't a book and there's a LOT of moving parts there.
xeanoa
That's not even close to the same thing.
theres a difference between reading and understanding
sure that simple language book can be read by that person
but its not the same book
its a different book
any game that requires understanding language for progression is going to be too complex for someone who cant understand language, no matter how simple the language is
And think about the logistics of doing that to a game. Simplistic sentence structure is really just not going to translate into gameplay well. Cutscenes would end up different length and would thus need to be changed, in game dialogue built into the map itself would need to be changed, etc etc.,
You're now talking about overhauling 30% of the entire game. No.
nah those arent a problem
Depending on the game they absolutely are.
you can just timestretch the simple language version up
And with every piece of in game lore? Imagine doing that to Skyrim. :L
and if you need to speed it up, its not simple enough 🤷♂️
lmao
as if anything lined up in skyrim to begin with
🤷♂️ i dont want to read that to begin with
Imagine how cursed that would be.
but the problem with that is not the mechanics its the subtext
Mm. True.
Regardless it'd end up a monumental amount of work to change old games to be like that.
Maybe not super bad when you're already making something, but for anything already done? Annoying.
exactly the same amount of work as translating it into another language to begin with 🤷♂️
Which ain't exactly easy, yeah.
the problem isnt the doing, the problem is how much the game needs to be changed to accomodate
And the context problem as well.
thing is
also tbh
if the game doesnt have good enough gameplay to interest regardless of the narrative, its not gonna be fun to someone who has trouble understanding no matter whether or not they can comprehend the words
sorry but that small group of people is gonna have to fall behind the hearing, vision, and mechanically impaired
and uh
baby steps
i dont know the premise of fez
🤷♂️ that game probably wouldnt be fun if it required deciphering
Guys...
adding those options would be pointless, because those people can't enjoy the game anyway
is EXACTLY the reason why we don't see more accessibility options
People who rely on e.g. Simple Language aren't too dumb to understand a narrative or a how a game works
You can also add options to cutscenes, like the freaking ability to rewind or pause them like a damn video, it's not that hard...
🤷♂️ id be perfectly ok with a game that uses color blending as a major gameplay mechanic not adding colorblind options
and a music game not adding options for the deaf
there are vr games like boneworks that i cant properly enjoy due to vertigo yet im not asking stress level zero to make the buildings shorter
Hot take, but the primary reason for this convo is that disabled people have this trend of being viewed to be so unfortunate that it's morally just to build everything in such a way that they can experience it.
Kinda falls flat though when nothing else is like that.
And more importantly, not everyone in every circle of life gets to experience everything.
That's kinda just how life works.
So Aeon, how is my card doing?
Ah.
the point tho is to not exclude people who meaningfully could experience the work of art if it was just slightly modified to be understandable to them
Not bad for no tweaking.
problem is it isnt just color filters
So Aeon, how do these particular moments work?
@astral haven I'm gonna have to kinda agree there. I agree that small changes are easy so why not, but give an inch take a mile, people then start suggesting utterly inane things.
74MH/s?
the game has to somewhat support incorporating color filters to begin with
I agree with smart choices, I disagree with remarkably stupid bullshit.
Like making playable characters in shooter games wheelchair bound so those with fucked legs can feel more connected to them.
That is ultimately a massive waste of time relative to the societal reward.
They do.
And a LOT of recent examples tend to not care for that.
Very different things, but holy shit if idiots don't treat them like they're the same.
🤷♂️ inclusivity is not a requirement of art
in fact
art requires exclusivity otherwise it would all be boring
exclusivity as in the dictionary definition not intentionally discriminating
discrimination is not the opposite of inclusivity
ignoring a good point just because of idiots misusing the situation is even more idiotic imo
@ashen spindle Not wrong.
agreed
bethesda also made a game where you are wheelchair bound for part of the game
lel
Idk tho, I like the artform of games as an artform, with the current pressure to include everyone it kinda puts that at risk when you demand everyone be included for the sake of being inclusive.
Just... let the devs do their work, y'know? If the team makes a pog story they make a pog story, no?
inclusivity is not accessibility
You're right, it isn't.
I'm failing my words here. :L
I don't mean to strawman, though I do see that unfair pressure gets put on devs when you start doing that.
Accessibility is fine, nobody is going to go against that, I'd hope.
🤷♂️ you are right now
However that endlessly irritating vocal minority loves to try and also force in being inclusive when that isn't even relevant.
I know, I know.
there are people on each side doing this exact thing
and on both sides its a problem
Kinda just wish it wasn't so entangled.
🤷♂️ in this conversation at least it has been you doing the entangling...
don't treat it as entangled, call out bs when someone wants to entangle it and that will be more productive, if you argue from a point as if it's already completely related when it's not, those idiots won and you lost to them basically
My original point to this is that I want accessibility stuff, but not to the stage that it causes massive problems for the dev cycle.
🤷♂️ fix it in patch
sorry for being late to the party just do it eventually
make it one of the "languages" you translate to
also it gets vastly overestimated how much extra work it would be, given how much can be re-used for other projects like color filters etc.
Yesn't.
90% of the time is qa
If you had one dev team making tools for their thing they can use multiple times? Cool.
How do you translate that to a mass scale?
That's kinda the puzzle, no? Presumably software packages, but how do you give enough incentive for people to use em if they don't even use shit like multicore?
And yes, I know multicore is harder than a color filter.
normalize using them just the same as translating into other languages has been normalized
because it's easier to use premade packages for it if you're indie dev, or are made in a completely different department in a bigger studio
That's what I thought with fonts. Just make simple software packages you can switch to, that's super easy to integrate.
Is MorePowerTool nowadays forcing you to flash a new BIOS on the card?
What u guys think about buying Intel 900p/905p optane from hong kong via ebay?
did optane have high TBW?
no
because it has PBW 😛
I mean, what do you think you need it for? and what price would it be
intel quotes 600€ for half a tb
No I mean I ask whether buying an used optane is a good idea from say hong kong
or is it 100% scam
again, what price?
sure can be a scam but idk if that is a market where people try to get someone bc people that are easy to scam usually dont even know what optane is lol
you're not seriously considering 450 for 380gb lol
huh it says 350€
either way, I assume you planned to use it in your own rig?
buy a 2TB pcie4 nvme for half that price lol
eww
I seriously doubt you do anything that's small size so a 380gb is big enough, that needs a high write endurance
I need a boot/pantheon drive + rando gen 4 for rest of the shitty lobby fps games I play
optane isn't even faster than regular ssds in most cases
around 5x faster random reads at low qd and access times are like 5-10x less
thought that would help for zone loads
aint nobody got time to wait or zoneloading 😄
yeah no way you're getting any improvement from that, heavily doubt that
Running Vanguard in 2013 from a ramdrive was such a big boost vs ssd/hdd
I guess I could do it agian but not with this setup
needs a threadripper lol
I mean you could profile if the ssd read is actually what is bottlenecking your loads and then see if it's read in a way that would actually be faster on optane
Tru, know any programs for that?
uhhh not really, I guess dumping the process while it reads and profiling that would be a way, but would need code knowledge
drive profiling isn't something I know about really
;'( rip
I guess you could try and @ the guy who does SSD reviews on anandtech if he has a twitter? maybe he can help
idk if you have seen this, but it looks to correlate with 4k/mixed reads of the individual reviews. fuck if I'm gonna regression analysis tho
Also 980 pro got a magician 6.3 update that gives ya a "game mode" where it disables power saving features. Same as WD SN850 got. It shaved off 1ms for SN850, so should be about the same for samsung.
it's interresting, but I'm just barely able to follow cpu/gpu on the hardware side to make sense of how stuff works, I'm not trying to understand ssds as well lmao
haha 😂 Yeah too much stuff out there
imagine buying a 380GB sdd today 🤣
I mean, if you have one main game and it could cut load times from 2 minutes to 1, that adds up ALOT
its an in-between of a ramdrive and a ssd, optane that is
does it do that though? i thought most ssd's these days were hitting the pci-e ceiling
It does
.. for reads
well that's the thing we're trying to figure out
or, rather what dag is trying to figure out mostly
I'd think something like 8-9s is hitting the cpu wall if you looking at the above pic, so yeah the cap is there but it can be reduced from where we sit currently. Pci-e bandwith is not really a limiting factor for random reads/writes sadly. We are very far from hitting the pci-e ceiling for those. Sequential reads/writes are close to maxing the pci-e bandwith, but games are not coded with seq's in mind.
But I dont know anything to say for certain so take it with salts
its a lot of moneys tbh :p
yeah, but less than 380gb of ram xD
Path of Exile top racers are actually running PoE from ramdrive, iirc for every 3 mins it cuts zone load times by a total of 20-25 seconds, vs ssds
@young pecan what gpus do you mine on?
if there’s a 3080, what hash rate do you get?
Oeuf
"Capitalism just works"
apple liked this
Nice
wow gigabyte support backend is really broken
this was clearly meant for someone else to reply to me not to directly forward lmao
Good support
tbf I personally prefer getting it directly so PR has no chance of fucking up what the technical guy wants to know
but it's not how it should be done lmao

kinda want to ping calder so he can go over to GB and slap them for having such a bad support website
but I'll not do it since he's busy with bringing me my lekker 😛
ffs I noticed I made a mistake in the reply and cant fix it bc I cant reply again and need to open a new question or wait for them to reply
sometimes I wonder if you even read and know what's in the articles you post or if you just post whats on your feed 
What's wrong now Quinty lad
I mean the ASPM news doesn't quite seem relevant to anything or anyone here 
no I don't hear I only smell 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftVhSm_zgp0 not one but two keller interviews coming up soon-ish
that's gonna be some nice content
The interview game is strong. Jim has agreed to two interviews.
First, a 2-on-1 about his new company Tenstorrent, with the CEO as well. That one's already recorded.
But second is a 1-on-1 no-holds-barred (as long as it doesn't break NDA) breakdown of the industry.
Get Your Questions In.
The interview is being recorded on Thursday.
It will be...
whos that
one of the handful of microprocessor engineers that are somewhat public facing
lead designer for athlon, worked on zen, A4 at apple, the tesal self driving chips etc.
well maybe, idk, but he's insanely smart and not just in a way that he is good at applying math
i wish i was smort
Keller was not lead on Zen.
you're right, lost a word there
He is a big picture guy. And at AMD, he was more focused on K12.
he working on steam big picture?
damn son
his short stay at intel he was supposedly one of the first/more vocal people to push for using external fabs for chips
He was the driving force behind making it modular
Not specifically external fabs, just using their packaging tech to scale
perhaps, until like 10 more years or w/e that's all still under NDA so not like we get exact answers about that, also doesn't matter what exactly it was
Not really?
the nice thing is he's someone you can listen to on an interview and he knows how to answer and not just in a full on technical way
Pretty sure he talked about it during the lec fridman interview
mhh don't remember him mentioning that part, but I could be mistaken
Yup but he's smart enough not to make technical mistakes while simplifying
yea
you mean knowledgeable right, or are you implying ignorance equals unsmartiness?
Explaining a concept requires intelligence much more than knowledge
I'm sure that most engineers are more "knowledgeable" than Keller
But the guy is smart
Jim Keller is a legendary microprocessor engineer, having worked at AMD, Apple, Tesla, and now Intel. He's known for his work on the AMD K7, K8, K12 and Zen microarchitectures, Apple A4, A5 processors, and co-author of the specifications for the x86-64 instruction set and HyperTransport interconnect.
This episode is presented by Cash App. Downl...
Intelligence is more related to the ability to absorb, use and mutate new knowledge/information.
Yup
And keller is one of those people constantly making those "obvious in hindsight" design suggestions
Typically it is related to culture. Outside people tend to realise odd behaviour or traditions.
Guy has been a cpu designer for a while tho
And for the high level overview he gave the same advice every time
More in the sense that each company/job has their own culture.
Not just CPU - Tesla was mostly Ai and SoC work. And now he is at Tenstorrent.
Make all the parts individually replaceable and do some improvement to each of them
Cpu from the top level definition
An ai "cpu" is just a tensor cpu as opposed to a vector cpu (gpu) or scalar cpu (normal cpu)
Cpu computes
Eh... there are a lot of ways to skin that cat.
Some are just matrix, some do dataflow-like, some are many core, some are a massive VLIW engine...
🤷 vliw and matrix are both vector not tensor
Math is meth
meth is yes
BTW so it seems the narrative about jim keller had family issues that prompted him to stop.
Instead of him not getting anything done and leaving because of that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftVhSm_zgp0&lc=UgzQxB26pRNatSYUsFF4AaABAg.9NDEM-TLeUR9NDFLF4maQk

wut, where does that come from
the fact it's for familiy reasons is known for months
I really didn't follow it much, just from early rumors / narrative about it.
Like we knew that 3 days before the official announcement lol
Thing with family reasons or time with the family is that it's often used as a way for noone to lose face.
So just because it is true in some cases does not mean it's always the case.
🤨
sure if it was some management person getting removed for shit, but I don't see that applying here when part of it is publicly known and it's not like either side would really care if it was ending on bad terms tbh
Keller was trying to retire beforehand lol
The guy just keeps getting scooped up before he can lol
Ya don't have a nose
@misty saffron I mine on 3070s with an average rate of 62.5MH/s and I plan on getting 3080s and 3090s, I expect the 3080s to have a rate of around 100MH/s.
Phew... verbal interview for Com Sci done with.
It... could have gone slightly better 😄
In other news. Oeuf
Jesus
How you get your monies worth
If it was like triple return or double fair enough
by not using SSDs or not using QLC ssds
I for one can't wait for computer hardware to be traded exclusively in back alleys in a few years 😄
there are options out there that have insane high TBW
but chia is just another shit coin that happend to get some more PR, nothing new really
Time to get another nvme soon 
so... youre saying just use a 512GB ramdisk?
nope because you'd need even more bc it needs to unpack etc.
and not even faster than ssds really 😛
der8auer tested it
But ram doesnt wear out like ssd do
but you can get ssds with much higher endurance without having to run epyc/threadripper to have enough RAM slots
Not as high as ram is expected to endure tho. If they dont fail prematurely, they can read write as much as you like. Provided your psu doesnt kill it
yeah but still not worth it as TCO is so much higher compared to replacing ssds
its not worth it unless you do HDD farms for the most part anyway and I hope it just slowly dies off
initially it might seem somewhat better until the fact it shreds through storage devices.
about $2 an hour on aws for 512gb of ram
but yeah.. thats without the mining hardware
Plus you would most likely be banned for doing that
idk if it was AWS but roman also checked some cloud provider, wasn't worth he figured out
which is good imo
less options to waste stuff for making waste
This is even worse as GPUs dont experience much wear, given temps were kept in check. HDDs and SSDs wear out and if youre lucky it gets dumped to some 3rd world country to be dismantled and recycled
But....
I have this already installed
Did they remove support?!
ye sadly you have to get the new one
the new one?
Has anyone fiddle with the idea to use the wooting analog functionalities on Lightroom or Premiere to control the editing sliders with some kind of granularity?
I'd be absolutely unsurprised if Adobe's software only allows specific hardware to work with it licenses and all 😄
But no - Not to my knowledge.
Microsoft Knob 😂
Is that what you call a person who is diehard windows fan? A Microsoft Knob?
I'll see myself out
Those do look fun to use though, for real
do u actually need a surface to use it?
mmm. nice. didn't knew about it. So you can use it just on top of the table as a normal editing knob
that's cool
yeah
if I can squeeze $500 USD a month out of my RTX 3070...I'm gonna be quite happy
Just have to hope when the coin crashes you are able to cash out first
I'll cash out asap
Dunno how though 
Prolly will look up some reputable marketplaces
Minimum of 1000$ and 2 years 
meh, $1000 USD, that's a few months of mining
You’re forgetting something important
transaction fees
And the coin is designed to crash 2 years after its introduced
And the transaction cost is quite often more than just a couple gwei
that’s why eth is not gonna be the longterm coin it wants to be
Oficially, any
Our country has specific tax exemption for of the table work. tho. Under some level
I didn't know that
Jokes aside, I looked it up
Up to 2500 euros yearly income is untaxable
Above that 15%
If you cant explain how you got the money for something you still get caught
Did you at least check what transaction fees you will have with your setup? Or are you gonna try to cash out 50€ with a 40€ cost 
Eh, unexplainable wealth would make the tax agency charge you with fraud or claim it was criminally earned money and all the assets be seized.
It’s probably the most audited one yea
They are a established cryptotrading platform
So was Mt Gox until it suddenly had to close and all assets were lost
