owning things

Which is true if you dont know who owns what wallet

[crisp granite]

means they can track and tax them

and of course a governing body wants to tax crypto, it's money

[reef tundra]

Nah.

You cant fake warrants and you can verify court orders by calling the court up

Good

its bad anyway

Ricky teaching his cat some wisdom

[wheat plume]

ooo, interesting

[timid chasm]

switch to Brave?

[wheat plume]

IDK if I will or not

I just installed it to see what its like now

[timid chasm]

been using it the past week or two. It's not too bad

[wheat plume]

🤔 whyd it open the website in .onion?

Livshits.....

Damn, what a name

[cursive summit]

Brave opens .onion websites?

[wheat plume]

yep

[timid chasm]

has tor built in

when you open their "incognito" it's like "would you prefer tor? your ISP can still see your naughty shit"

but your naughty shit won't load on tor sometimes so you play the game

[wheat plume]

hm?

jk-aur?

oohh

[timid chasm]

I read "ungoogled chromium batteries" 😂 I was like software batteries, wtff

[zenith sonnet]

Only because the scale starts at 100%, not at 0%...

[shadow minnow]

Smh why do so many people you could fit anything 3d in your pocket if it was 4d

[cursive summit]

What

[reef tundra]

Only if you can move in 4D

[cursive summit]

Chevo

[shadow minnow]

That you can’t put anything 3d, like fridge in a 4d pocket (with fourth dimensions being infinite) for imo a pretty obvious reason

[reef tundra]

That would be acceptable

we already have points as a concept

dimensionless points

For me I just call the 4th dimension time. As it makes the 4th dimension less abstract to think about

Have not done much work with 4 dimensional mathematics, though. So might one of those methods of good enough in the field but not in its most technical sense

[astral haven]

4 spacial dimensions is very different from 4 time dimensions

If something has no breadth into the 4th spacial dimension like all of our 3d objects, you could fit an infinite amount of them by just stacking them in 4d

[shadow minnow]

What you could not do is put 1000 fridges in your pocket

[astral haven]

For example you have absolutely no trouble drawing as much as you want on every single page in a book without affecting the other pages

The problem wouldn't be fitting the fridge

[shadow minnow]

It would

For a simple reason

Fridge has 3 dimensions

4 dimensional pocket gives you one infinite dimensions

You still need to fit at least two of the dimensions somewhere

[astral haven]

You could 100% fit as many fridges as you want

[shadow minnow]

You would need 6d to fix that

[astral haven]

No

[shadow minnow]

Yes

[astral haven]

You only need 1 extra spacial dimension to fold a lower dimension object into it

[shadow minnow]

Well I can give you an example why that’s not really right in this context

Let’s say you have a 2d object like paper

(Not fully 2d but thinner than thinnest defined max dimension in this example)

[astral haven]

Sure let's assume 2d paper

Paper with 0 thickness

[shadow minnow]

Without folding it you can’t just put it into nowhere looking from bottom. If you put it vertically you may get rid of one axis, but you still have it horizontally and thus “visible” from bottom

[astral haven]

Fold the paper

[shadow minnow]

What if it’s metal?

[astral haven]

In the 3rd dimension

[shadow minnow]

You can’t just fold everything without “breaking it”

[astral haven]

A 2d object has no properties in the 3rd dimension

If it does, it's not a 2d object

It's a "very thin 3d object"

[shadow minnow]

2d object in 3d dimension is never fully 2d

[shadow minnow]

It can have zero thickness

[astral haven]

That's not true ikas

[astral haven]

Images are actually truly 2d

[reef tundra]

Just like we have points with no dimensions just coordinates

[shadow minnow]

The basic thing is that 3 dimensional object needs to be in 4 dimensions. If you have 4 and only the fourth is infinite what about the two others?

[astral haven]

Ikas

Circle on paper

How much 3d space does it take up?

Aka how much volume

Say it has an area of 1m²

You need 3d to be able to actually understand what's going on

[shadow minnow]

The thing is that you don’t need volume. You could stack stuff but only if you had at least one dimension right. 2d objects can only really be stacked on one place no matter it’s base properties of two dimensions only in 4d

[reef tundra]

not enough information or if you assume the new dimension is 0 long then the volume becomes 0.

[shadow minnow]

Even if you put the circle vertically it still has width

And you can’t just ignore it

[astral haven]

No ikas
You can fit infinite circles in 3d

[shadow minnow]

That depends

[astral haven]

No it literally doesnt

Thats one of the fundamentals of calculus

[shadow minnow]

Not if circle diameter is 4cm and you have 2cm.2cm.infinite space

Circle is two dimensional, 3d with one infinite thus only covers one dimension

[reef tundra]

oh, if you give it anything more than the new dimension of 0 it becomes a cyllinder

[astral haven]

Ikas

By your logic you would require 4d to have infinite circles

[shadow minnow]

If you had such a limitations yes

That’s exactly what I mean

[astral haven]

That is mathematically incorrect

You need to take calculus again
It's one of the very basics of limits

[shadow minnow]

Depends. It being in 3d space where two axis are limited is also kinda incorrect

[astral haven]

No

Math ikas

This is math

That can be proven

If you took calculus you would know this

[reef tundra]

2D object in 3D world has to have the new dimension to be 0. Otherwise it turns into a 3d object. Is that the idea?

[astral haven]

I know it's been 10 years since I did calculus but I remember my limits at least

[ashen spindle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4EgbgTm0Bg maybe this will help as it's going at it from a very different approach but still comes with a good dimensional understanding if you can follow it

[shadow minnow]

That’s also math. Also the thing is that it’s not really possible to prove since you can’t get fully 2d object in 3d space or fully 3d object in 4d space

[astral haven]

Mathematically you can

[reef tundra]

In mathematics you assume your life in the perfect world where it can happen

[astral haven]

Well no

Mathematics makes no assumptions

You are thinking of physics

[shadow minnow]

Well, sometimes it does but quite rarely

[astral haven]

No

That's a fundamental part of mathematics

[shadow minnow]

I mean usually not the core maths, but some simplified stuff has some assumptions, but yeah, the core does not

[astral haven]

If it's actually a theorem it's making no assumptions

[shadow minnow]

The thing that can be just an assumption is how to translate some values into other stuff

[reef tundra]

Mathmatics has to make assumtions to work. You cannot make a system of mathmatics that will never be able to be proven to be fully coherrrent with itself

[astral haven]

Those two statements are opposing pincus

[astral haven]

No
There is no assumption in math

[shadow minnow]

I mean not in maths itself but in how people understand some aspects of it

[astral haven]

Say you convert your unit into an actual measurement then you have to make the assumption that the unit functions

No, that's called physics ikas

[shadow minnow]

There is no assumption in math itself but in the way people see it there is, different for each individual. There always are assumptions. You come to a number and assume it’s something, you are wrong. It’s your assumption, not assumption in maths but still an assumption. But nvm, back to the point

[astral haven]

Applied math is called physics
And an argument could be made that non applied math doesn't matter,
But non applied math exists

Dimensionality is a mathematical concept not a physical one according to calculus

[shadow minnow]

What in calculus makes you able to fit 2d object with for example 2.3 into 1.1.infinite, or another example

[astral haven]

Folding

I personally don't know the math because it is complicated but you can fold an object into a higher dimension

[reef tundra]

oh, its actually that mathmatics will have true statements that cannot be proven

[astral haven]

No

[shadow minnow]

The thing is that folding is folding

Of course you can fold

But without folding

You can’t really do it

[astral haven]

Its proven that there are true statements that can't be proven, but those don't get inducted into mathematics itself at least not really

[astral haven]

Ok so how would you be unable to fold?

[shadow minnow]

And if folding into another dimension would or would not have effect onto the object is discutable. Not that it matters since you can’t get a fully 2d object in 3d

[astral haven]

Well thing is you can
I mean that's semantics because anything 2d doesn't actually qualify for the definition of object

But 2d things can and do exist

[shadow minnow]

Basically you don’t retain shape of something when folding is the point, it’s no longer the same or even 2d object since you fold it into 3rd dimension. It’s just discutable, what I am saying is that you can’t do it with unchanged 2d. You could, but only in 4d most likely

[astral haven]

That's not true at all tho

[shadow minnow]

Again I am talking without folding

[astral haven]

Mathematically a teacup is identical to a donut

[shadow minnow]

And in the case of two dimensions being smaller

Than the ones of object

(Limiting dimensions)

[astral haven]

Ikas
You do not understand.
I can't teach you all of calculus and theoretical physics.
But what I can tell you is that you have incorrect information

[ashen spindle]

are you talking about practical use case of how simple it would be to put N-dimension objects into a n+1-dimension world, or just about the theory? because the theory is very easy and obvious

[astral haven]

Quin the part ikas doesn't understand is folding in a higher dimension has no effect in the lower dimensions

[ashen spindle]

yeah but I wonder if he didn't even mean that part and was just unclear in expressing what he originally meant

[astral haven]

... seems pretty clear to me

[astral haven]

This is also a simple common misconception

[shadow minnow]

Basically I am talking about it without any changes, so also not folding, essentially altering dimensions. Even if it had no effect on other properties

[shadow minnow]

That’s what I believe the opposite theory to be tbh
May be a misconception though

[astral haven]

Yeah basically it's the uncanny valley, if you learn to little you think oh it's easy just push it in there
If you learn a bit you realize oh wait you need to fold
And if you learn more you learn that's not a problem (if you can manipulate in 4d ofc lmao)

It's very possible we have no way from converting 3d energy to effect along the 4th spatial dimension and then we are boned lol

[shadow minnow]

I mean even the basic concept of 4d is so hard to imagine for humans

[astral haven]

Yup

The playbox is fantastic

And there was another 4d demo that really helped me understand this stuff

[shadow minnow]

Basically all the not hardest imaginations you can have are based on how 2d to 3d is

[astral haven]

Yup

So you actually need a 3d visualization to push into dimension 4

[shadow minnow]

Actually don’t think I have seen many demos of anything like that, most of them just created in my head

[astral haven]

Which might be where the misconception came from

The toybox is fantastic if you have a VR headset

[shadow minnow]

Well, it might, but I still believe it is not misconsemption and it’s not really possible to prove so I guess it’s a possibly wrong theory

[astral haven]

Well no
Again mathematics vs physics

[shadow minnow]

It’s also definition of the stuff, and folding. The thing is that I counted folding as altering in some way. I am not saying it’s not possible with folding, but without folding

[astral haven]

Spatial dimensions exist mathematically
A 4th spacial dimension of the same variety as our current 3 would act this way

Again it's a misunderstanding of what folding in a higher dimension is

There's a fantastic video that talks about flatlanders that I can't find right now

[ashen spindle]

there are some non-provable truths and such in math that is correct and I think this video did a good job at explaining it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HeQX2HjkcNo but otherwise math is quite clear on these things without "issues" and "wrong theories"

anything beyond as carm says is physics at not math anymore

[astral haven]

Well no
There are people who argue that those truths are part of mathematics, and there are those that dont

[shadow minnow]

Anyways, enough of complicated stuff, let’s go to something simple. How would a human vision work and how would you have to see to see properly in 4d

[astral haven]

I fall in the "don't" category

Human vision wouldn't work

We would require downconverters of some kind to rasterize the 4d world into 3d

[shadow minnow]

And also all the physics stuff and properties in 4d

And the fact “that basically all” things would have to be to some extend 4d in 4d space same as it’s in 3d space with 3d things.

[astral haven]

Those are a problem for us when we find a way to prove the existence of that dimension
There are experiments that suggest against there being 4d but nothing proven yet

Basically the fact that things don't extend into 4d is somewhat a proof that 4d doesn't exist

Because we can prove that most properties don't extend into 4d

Specifically electromagnetism doesnt

[shadow minnow]

I mean even I’d it does not exist, question remains how would it look like if it would exist

[astral haven]

And neither do the strong or weak force

[reef tundra]

There are just going to be situations where the rules might be known but the proof cannot be given

[shadow minnow]

Because even world not being 4d does not mean 4d could not theoretically exist

But that’s all just theoretical and theories with no way to prove them then

[astral haven]

We can prove that we can't affect a theoretical 4tj dimension

Prove that and it's pretty much moot if dim 4 exists or not

[shadow minnow]

That’s true. But we can imagine how would it be if it would exist which it basically very likely does not.

[astral haven]

Yes but if we can prove it doesn't exist then we would be able to say it looks like nothing because there's no medium to convert information from 4d

If we prove we can't affect it I mean

[shadow minnow]

But tbh my opinions are kinda, I don’t fully believe in schrodingers theory fully too tbh, just think that there are not yet discovered properties and dependencies, and only issue is that people have no way to calculate them since you would have to start “calculating” and observing everything in universe before it started to be able to get every information about t most likely, so I just kinda see schrodingers theory as “cover” for people not knowing something and don’t really believe In alternative realities tbh. But may very likely be wrong here, just what I think

[astral haven]

unfortunately quantum mechanics is real and has been proven

if you are talking about the dead cat

because the dead and not dead cat can be physically proven without particularly impressive equipment

[shadow minnow]

I mean, the thing is that there is no way to prove it completely since you would have to see the atoms from start, which was before humans starting observing them. But quantum physics is real since there is basically no way for humans to do anything else.

But also even though I really don’t think that’s the case, imagine if black holes were actually 4d, and that was the thing making them fit everything into it, making them dark and so heavy
But yeah that makes no sense

[astral haven]

Also again misunderstanding a basic concept

[reef tundra]

https://youtu.be/kTxOFVAeO-4

[astral haven]

Observation is a physical phenomena

[shadow minnow]

Which thing? The black hole thing is more of a joke and not something I actually think

[astral haven]

observation itself

and black holes are just a thing that happens when gravity exists

[reef tundra]

a whole lot of it

[astral haven]

well
when the gravity that makes 9.81m/s exists

[shadow minnow]

Yeah, I know, that’s why the thing I said before was not serious

[astral haven]

schrodinger's cat is a very fundamental part of quantum physics 🤷

[astral haven]

it is a thing

[reef tundra]

More simplifies the concept of observation means change

[astral haven]

basically yea

more technically id use the word "interaction"

[reef tundra]

More simplifies the concept of observation interacts to change the observed?

[astral haven]

I mean that's not exactly making anything simpler lmao

[reef tundra]

🤷‍♂️ You said you would use interaction. So thats a change to include that word

[astral haven]

Observation is interaction, in physics they are interchangeable

[shadow minnow]

When talking about simplifying why not to just straight up talk about how would it be 6th dimension instead of 4th to simplify

[astral haven]

Because it wouldn't be

Just the same as the volume above my screen is 3d is constantly changing but in 2 dimensions the screen is static

at least my work laptop lol

not my computer

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjsgoXvnStY
this video is the one i was thinking of

this uses dimensions 4-6 as time

[shadow minnow]

Tbh don’t really think that’s the same, as just spacial dimensions.

[astral haven]

this video doesnt include a 4th spacial dimension

however it provides a fantastic way to think about further spacial dimentions and that is "a fold"

watch the whole video

[young pecan]

Lmao

[young pecan]

Anyone use Roon for their audio?

The app is actually nuts, I can see why the lifetime membership is so expensive.

It's just flawless music player with integration piled on top of more integration.

Just like...

Personally use strawberry, sure lacks the customisation of foobar but works well enough for my uses.

Ultimately as long as I can have my library album artist / original year - album I am fine. I just dump albums in a playlist and call it a day.

Editing metadata works fine in Strawberry and visually it's also fine if you use the system icons.

[woven dagger]

yo @hearty lake

[hearty lake]

YO 😄

[woven dagger]

so can you suggest me an adblocker for yt

[hearty lake]

AdGuard

but with brave u dont need one 😛

[woven dagger]

and is the download speed for sites more in brave as compared to chrome

[wheat plume]

YouTube Vanced on phone

[woven dagger]

like chrome doesn't utilize my speed properly sometimes

[woven dagger]

ios 😐

[wheat plume]

Oop

[woven dagger]

yes ik

adguard is an extension?

[wheat plume]

I use it's DNS

[woven dagger]

oh

[wheat plume]

No apps needed

[woven dagger]

adguard is an app

[hearty lake]

like the download speed is prob the same but sites will load faster since brave just blocks the file srelated to analytics & trackers

[woven dagger]

it will probably eat my space and create cache again

[wheat plume]

It's an app but you don't need it

[woven dagger]

oh whats your personal preference

[hearty lake]

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/adguard-adblocker/bgnkhhnnamicmpeenaelnjfhikgbkllg?hl=de

[wheat plume]

If you just want the Dns anywsy

[woven dagger]

can you suggest an extension for adblock on yt

[wheat plume]

Ublock origin

[woven dagger]

i use chrome for yt 98%

2% for movie torrents

[hearty lake]

every extension for chrome works for brave too, it is actually chrome but with some tweaks

[woven dagger]

uBlock Origin is not an "ad blocker", it's a wide-spectrum content blocker with CPU and memory efficiency as a primary feature.

[reef tundra]

And?

[woven dagger]

it said this

[wheat plume]

It still blocks ads

[pale sigil]

It's an ad blocker

The best one out there

[hearty lake]

on ios i use adguard too btw. but its not working for the YT app

[woven dagger]

is it best?

[woven dagger]

oh

[pale sigil]

Wrong link

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ublock-origin/cjpalhdlnbpafiamejdnhcphjbkeiagm?hl=en

[woven dagger]

ublock origin is overall chrome ad blocker?

[wheat plume]

Yes

Not just chrome

[woven dagger]

thank you

[woven dagger]

then?

for every app on pc?

[pale sigil]

It works on all browsers

Basically

[woven dagger]

oh thanks

[pale sigil]

This link is for chrome

[woven dagger]

finally no yt ads

they suck

[pale sigil]

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/

Firefox

[woven dagger]

i only use chrome

thanks finally no yt ads less go

it has some internal options idk what to tick and what to not

can anyone help

[wheat plume]

I just install and forget xd

Sorry, can't help

[woven dagger]

oops

anyone else?

[wheat plume]

If you can change DNS on iOS
I suggest adding this one to it

[pale sigil]

Don't

[reef tundra]

If you ask for something that helps to solve a diplomatic rival. Me ordering saturating orbital bombardments on all their core planets will do that. It did the job as prescribed.

[pale sigil]

Use this one

Ever

[wheat plume]

??

Why

[pale sigil]

Terrible dna

Dns

[wheat plume]

Why

[woven dagger]

[pale sigil]

It doesn't just block ads it can cause issues for public access WiFi or any WiFi you have to login to

And some apps break

[wheat plume]

Look
I only use mobile data

[reef tundra]

And it could be snooping on the traffic

[wheat plume]

Xd it's fine

[pale sigil]

Also ye public dns

Bad

Pihole good

[woven dagger]

can you tell me what settings to use on ublock i wll screenshare

[wheat plume]

Default is fine

[pale sigil]

Just install it

Bam

[woven dagger]

oh okay i did

its pog because we can enable and disable it for different websites

[wheat plume]

Indeed!

[woven dagger]

interesting

[reef tundra]

Since DNS traffic is not encrypted yet most of the time. all the requests will be visible for the dns initially

[woven dagger]

will it suck internet or smth?

the ublock app

[pale sigil]

If anything it reduces bandwidth

[woven dagger]

i don't want packet loss in my games

[reef tundra]

It blocks the requests ascociated with trackers and ads

[woven dagger]

yes ik

[pale sigil]

Doesn't effect anything outside of drivers

Outside of browsers

Sorry

[reef tundra]

Besides updating the database doesnt take that much data

[woven dagger]

awesome

[woven dagger]

im loving it thanks

sad i didn't ask about it earlier

what are these modes at the bottom @pale sigil

[reef tundra]

Hmm

[woven dagger]

the only reason i uninstalled reddit

[reef tundra]

They understand the basic concept of UV radiation or not?

[woven dagger]

anyone knows about powecord here?

[cursive summit]

AMD Radeon RX 6000, RX 5000, RX 500, RX Vega series graphics cards, RX 480, RX 470, & all AMD Ryzen processors with Radeon graphics, if the minimum requirements of the game are met.

FSR support

Integrated graphics also support FSR

[reef tundra]

I would file a report to the EU if a nightlight for children was unsafe

[cursive summit]

That is VERY big for APUs

That means a below average APU can actually run more demanding games quite well

[reef tundra]

Wait they are suspected Infrared radiation? What kind of ovens are they running around there

[young pecan]

@cursive summit Not first gen.

Interpolated animations look great if you don’t look too closely. FSR is the same.

Give it a few generations and I’ll agree with that statement.

[cursive summit]

Meh AMD has a knack of outdoing Nvidia

I trust they'll do the same here

[young pecan]

Huh.

Apparently MS is dropping Windows 10 Home and Pro in 2025.

Presumably in favour of upgraded by then Windows 10...?

[cursive summit]

But Windows 11 is just an upgrade for Win10

So it's more than an upgrade then

Whole another version

[wheat plume]

windows 11?

[young pecan]

Mmmmm, but didn’t MS say they were going to never make another Windows?

[reef tundra]

But they said that windows 10 would be the last

[wheat plume]

^^

[young pecan]

And Windows 11 would classify as another Windows.

MS, what are you doing?

[cursive summit]

I guess that Win10 is a plaftorm of sorts

[reef tundra]

https://tenor.com/view/arthur-internet-tell-lies-buster-lie-gif-4986649

[cursive summit]

That'll just keep getting updated

[young pecan]

:/

[cursive summit]

And ditch the naming scheme every half a decade

[young pecan]

That might be it.

[wheat plume]

AFAIK, MS eventually just want it to be called "Windows"

[cursive summit]

That's what 21H2 update will do

[wheat plume]

ooh

[cursive summit]

Win10 will become just "Windows"

[reef tundra]

im going to call it a waste of money

[young pecan]

Y’know what? I’d be fine if MS just updated the entire OS from the floor up and ditched X86 entirely.

[reef tundra]

https://youtu.be/OtwHJwP-juo

[cursive summit]

I actually hope that X86 gets RISC-Vd

Or CISCd whatever

[reef tundra]

128bit lets go

[young pecan]

512bit IP address.

Trust me, I need it for IOT. :P

[reef tundra]

RV128I Base Integer Instruction Set, 128-bit

[halcyon moss]

Lol 128bit. Why

[reef tundra]

Because that also needs to be standardised someday

There is even a extention for hypervisors in the works.

[young pecan]

But... 512bit will be needed some day. :(

[reef tundra]

Quad-precision floating-point has been ratified already

[reef tundra]

Get a beefy FPGA then

[halcyon moss]

But 128 bit is accurate enough to pinpoint almost everything in the galaxy

[reef tundra]

In floating point yes

From the smallest distance possible to the entire universe

But floating point operations are computationally expensive without an floating point unit

There's a whole chain of tweets from HU, so open twitshit

[young pecan]

So basically this translates into “We fucked up and said things too directly, we’ll use a smokescreen from now on”. Cool.

Eeeh nah.

They overextended and fucked up with HU.

Nothing will change except their internals, they’ll be exactly the same but they’ll keep a tight lid on things for now until it blows over.

[ashen spindle]

ok they said they are dropping using that marketing branch, what else do you want them to do? give free monitors to people? xD

[shadow minnow]

I mean I would not complain if I was one of the people

[young pecan]

Think they have? They’ll just collapse it into something else and rebuild it.

That’s what companies do as a whole, they always just take a step sideways while calling it a step back.

[ashen spindle]

ok but aside from the obvious needing to wait if it actually fixed issues

what else should they have done

if this is apparently not enough

[young pecan]

Actually changed their policies and become respectable?

No company will ever do that, but you asked for the optimal.

sigh Maybe I’m just a cynic. That could be it.

[ashen spindle]

but they literally posted a log of what they said changes going forward??

[young pecan]

Yes, they posted changes.

I’ll remain sceptical until things actually do change, and more importantly I’ll watch for the upcoming bullshit.

No corporation will actually reign themselves back by choice, I think. They’ll look for other bullshit to do, just like usual.

[ashen spindle]

and wanting to see they do what they say is fair, but you can't really complain if there isn't actually any further step they can do at this point

bit weird to complain they dont have 5 years of trust build up after a day right? 😛

[young pecan]

Not complaining about their current step, I’m extremely sketchy on their motivation to stay on the decent road.

[young pecan]

And that implies I ever had any trust in them before. Hell no.

Trusting a corporation is how you get burned. Common sense 101 is to not trust those that don’t want to care about your existence.

Especially avoiding trust with entities that only care about your wallet. You hold them at arms length because anywhere else and out comes the shiv.

[ashen spindle]

sure, but even a healthy ammount of cynism shouldn't warrant calling it lacklustre when they did pretty much all they could at this point

[young pecan]

I don’t praise someone for undoing an obvious fuck up that shouldn’t have happened in the first place.

That’s what I expect as a baseline.

Shit on my carpet and I’m not going to thank you for wiping it off.

[ashen spindle]

not really expecting praise for it obviously, but both your and ikas comments really were more in a negative way than just acceptance

[young pecan]

Yep. I don’t trust the other shoe not to drop. If they hold and stay good for a long while I’ll stop expecting it.

They’ve proven to have a track record of trying to sidestep responsibility, that alone makes me actively not trust shit all they say.

[ashen spindle]

and that is fully fine but dont express it sounding in a way that suggests what they did is lacklustre when there wasn't more they can do at this point 😄

[young pecan]

I’ll give you that.

[ashen spindle]

scepticism isn't equal to being negative about something 😛

[young pecan]

They shat on the floor and got out a mop. We’ll see if they don’t feel the urge to do it again.

[ashen spindle]

yup

[zenith sonnet]

I think the issue is way overblown
LG has the right to organise paid reviews/advertisement/sponsored content
Every reviewer has the right to accept or decline. It only needs to be marked clearly

Yeah, but LG tried to payoff media to cover up their own bullshit.

all of a years 10nm production in one pictures

[crisp granite]

looks like 14+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++nm is still intel's best offering

[ashen spindle]

the real reason for intel opening foundry for others to use: more 14nm+ versions in the world

[wheat plume]

https://youtu.be/QmoxmppYBUk

oo

[reef tundra]

European.. they mean the more privacy respecting version

[wheat plume]

Some reason, thats the version I am already on

But the EU rom is not getting MIUI 12.5 .-. so I want to switch to global

[wheat plume]

Actually, if you use the China version but dont use any of th e default apps, it is more provacy respecting
In the global / EU version they stripped out a lot of the privacy features like clipboard paste indication, sending apps empty data sets rather than your actual data etc .-.

[reef tundra]

Cant have them hiding thought crimes from the state

Hmmm, if they can detect and falsify that.. what stop them from just doing the same but under deception...

Could be they cannot implement the feature as the possibility has been removed instead by law.

[empty wren]

Everybody is spying on everyone else by everyone I mean country

If China spies on you all the way to Europe df will they do

[reef tundra]

They do it anyway and dont try to hide this fact

[empty wren]

Not hiding it

Just saying I rather by spied on someone across the world rather than in my neighborhood

[reef tundra]

They will brute force servers for every port and ip doesnt matter if they will be 80% of all unknown foreign traffic

[empty wren]

Alright

If they shut down infrastructure would be bad

But even if let us say US spies only on US

The police does sketchy stuff

The fbi or whatever do the same

So even domestic authority or power can be sometimes even worse

At least in the US there is free speech

And some other natural rights

If you want a prime example: stingrays used by the police

Anyways it is all a big mess, I might be better off if everyone was busy spying on each other freely since then they would be fighting over it and spending less time spying

[crisp granite]

he's playing to his main audience's fears of having their guns confiscated and conspiracies regarding the shootings being conducted by democrats to justify banning guns

more viewers = more money flowing in

[empty wren]

It is a extremely bad idea though since people likely died( if it was to his friends then fine but throwing it up on the internet tsk tsk tsk)

[reef tundra]

He accused the sandy hook shooting to be fake and the parents to be some crisis actors. He got sued for that where he had the satire excuse lined up

[crisp granite]

🙄

how do you fake children getting shot to death?

[empty wren]

Precisely

And if they were faked that person(people) would have been seriously arrested

[reef tundra]

That is one of the core principles of fascism. Some strong shadowy vaguely defined enemy that's also somehow incompetent and weak. Stir up some fear and collect on their irrationality

[crisp granite]

it's keeping him housed and fed

so it's clearly working

[empty wren]

Yeah but people hate him

[reef tundra]

Doesnt matter if they cant do much with that while you swim in the money/fame

Just stay out of a jail cell and invest in some bodyguards. Should be fine, if you dont mind throwing away all your morals

[reef tundra]

And hate does mean they keep thinking about you

You can add clocks in Windows as well... since forever

But I just found this

That's way cooler

Hell, it even tells you if the Sun is up there or not

And you can Pin all of those to Start

Aw a bit of an older article

[stuck elk]

I think qled is the future for gaming monitors

[cursive summit]

So you mean, the future is already here?

I think mled is the future

Or maybe oled

[stuck elk]

Mled?

[stuck elk]

Its not here for gaming monitor, the refresh rate have to be high

Im also intrested in how the ghosting/motion blur is on those monitor, thats quite important

[cursive summit]

Isn't qdot literally qled?

[stuck elk]

Im not an expert in this

doesn't OLED have LED back illumination too?

How does it work

Enlighten me

Self lit?

I am not an expert on this at all

Isn't qled the latest monitor technology or something

But it is similar to OLED

So its not different from IPS?

[wintry cedar]

It's just a quantum dot VA panel technology

incrementally improved

[stuck elk]

What is quantun dot?

[wintry cedar]

magic, buy samsung!

[stuck elk]

Apparently, it uses nanocrystals instead of liquid cristals

Wich are 1 to 4 nm in size and emit light instead of filtering it

That seems a panel technology leap tbh

[wintry cedar]

our grandchildren will really enjoy MicroLED

[astral haven]

QLED bypasses physics limitations of lcd tech where microled does not

[dry tendon]

This modern American/Japanes work ethic too.

MicroLED when?

I accept slavery for MicroLED

[stuck elk]

Now i see. But you can combine nanocrystals with microled right?

[astral haven]

Sure QLED is just a stepping stone on the way to qdel but it's an important stepping stone

[stuck elk]

Qdel?

[astral haven]

Not nanocrystals

Nanoparticles

[stuck elk]

Ok

So nanoparticles are the next step?

[astral haven]

Current QLED is a layer of nanoparticles on top of a normal lcd

Some of the nanoparticles may be nanocrystals but that's not a requirement

[stuck elk]

Ok, and we now need also the lcd to be micro led

[astral haven]

Well no

[stuck elk]

Also what is qdel

[astral haven]

I'm pretty sure that every microled has had a qdef on it

So QLED means lcd with a quantum dot enhancement film

Or lcd with qdef

Next step is pure quantum dot

[reef tundra]

Nanomachines

[stuck elk]

With wich backlight system?

[astral haven]

Quantum dot

[stuck elk]

How does that work

[astral haven]

Qdel means electroluminescent quantum dots

[stuck elk]

The film is the layer wich filters the light, right?

[astral haven]

Where you trigger the quantum dots with electricity instead of light

Well no

If QLED was just filtering it wouldn't be interesting at all

[stuck elk]

Ok, so no backlight, but instead the quantum dots produce the light themselves

[astral haven]

What QLED actually does is it converts between different frequencies of light

But it takes light as an input

[stuck elk]

While we want electricity as input

I see

[astral haven]

Yup

[stuck elk]

So it doesnt filter but takes the backlight LED and turns it into different frequencies

While IPS LCD only filters with liquid crystals

[astral haven]

A qdef screen can be basically 3 layers, 2 for the TFT and one for the actual light part

OLED requires a minimum of like 7 with lcd requiring a minimum of like 15

[stuck elk]

TFT?

[stuck elk]

Light part, you mean backlight LED illumination?

[astral haven]

The thing that brings the electricity to the pixels

[stuck elk]

Ok

[astral haven]

Is called the TFT layer

[stuck elk]

Or you mean the part of the screen you see

[astral haven]

Light part being the part that creates the image

The light part of qdel is 1 single layer

[stuck elk]

So the part nearer you the observer

[astral haven]

Doesn't mean that

[stuck elk]

The ones formed by quantum dots

Wich then

[astral haven]

Just the part interacting with photons

[stuck elk]

Wich part is it

[astral haven]

The quantum dots themselves

[stuck elk]

The one i tought then

So it will not even be microled, just quantum dots and electricity

[astral haven]

This isn't necessarily true tho

[stuck elk]

Ok

[astral haven]

Yup

[stuck elk]

Intresting. And it will help with pixels response time i imagine?

[astral haven]

I suspect the final quantum dot panels are gonna be mirror, quantum dots, tft

Nope that's not helped vs oled

Qdel is just supposed to be cheaper oled but has the possibility of not breaking down

[stuck elk]

But if this technology is not here yet, how can you say it wont have better performance then OLED

[astral haven]

Theoretical perfect of oled and qdel are the same

Qdel might be easier to get there but so far all we have is "probably similar for cheaper"

The limiting factor tbh ATM is the TFT anyways

[stuck elk]

And what is oled instead

What backlight does it have, led, miniled or microled

[astral haven]

Oled

There's no backlight

[stuck elk]

And is it liquid crystal? How does that work

[stuck elk]

Ok, so its just electricity

[astral haven]

Yup

[stuck elk]

And what about the crystals

[astral haven]

Oled doesn't use crystals

It uses polymers

And polymers aren't durable

They break down over time

[stuck elk]

Would you say quantum dots are superior? Maybe we can improve quantum dots in the future, maybe they can be smaller or anyway different

[astral haven]

The point of quantum dots is they are alot easier to manufacture

[stuck elk]

So using ectricity is better then using microled

Anyway

[astral haven]

Yes

[stuck elk]

Nice

[astral haven]

Qdel can have the perfect stats of oled without the durability concern

[stuck elk]

Mayeb we can substitute the current quantum dots and make then atoms with some quantum phisycs magic

[stuck elk]

I agree

[astral haven]

Nah current quantum dots are just not great, we need something fundamentally better

And quantum dots are fairly easy to manufacture in bulk, where oleds have to be manufactured directly on the panel

Samsung is right now producing qd-oleds

[stuck elk]

Yes was thinking about that

They are speaking bullshit, because OLED has no backlight while qdOLES has?

[astral haven]

Basically using the most efficient light producing oled for every subpixel regardless of color then using quantum dots to convert it to the correct color

Qdoled doesn't have a backlight

QLED has a backlight

[stuck elk]

Hownis the light produced? By OLED polymers?

[astral haven]

Yup

Polymer oleds but yes

https://www.oled-info.com/files/DSCC-QD-OLED-stack-Oct-2018-img_assist-400x258.jpg

[stuck elk]

https://youtu.be/A5BzWPAOLjs

[stuck elk]

Oh, so it is an OLED enhanced with qd at the end

[astral haven]

Yeah nanosys is one of the names in quantum dots

[astral haven]

Yep

[stuck elk]

Nice

Thanks for making things clearer for me

[astral haven]

Well actually

No it's not enhancing at the end

It uses blue oleds only

Then some of the blue oleds get converted into red and green by quantum dots

[stuck elk]

This i guess

[astral haven]

yeppo

[stuck elk]

:)

So its an even better backlight then microleds, but still a backlight

[astral haven]

no

the oled is the layer that is on or off

backlight means theres a light, then a layer that decides if a pixel is on or off

[stuck elk]

And it is on or off on different parts

Depending on wheter that area/pixel is black or not

[astral haven]

yes

each individual pixel has 3 oleds behind it

and each oled has a different quantum dot in front of it

[stuck elk]

Microled and miniled are a step behind and are not on/off for every pixel, but for every area

Right?

[astral haven]

miniled yes

microled can be per pixel like in the wall

and the wall doesnt use a backlight it just uses raw microleds

[stuck elk]

Ok. So we are at a good point with qdoled, just behind qdel

[stuck elk]

Ok

[astral haven]

stop ping

[stuck elk]

[cursive summit]

It genuinely scans processes for malicious activities

And actively blocks them

yes everything does that now tho

kaspersky is just better at it

[astral haven]

that doesnt matter

the aibs wont buy chips they cant put in a card

[ashen spindle]

I mean that would make sense if the aibs complained and nvidia changed it based on feedback

but nvidia usually doesnt care about what anyone says lol

[astral haven]

probably noone said anything

they just noticed a decrease in orders so they pivoted

[ashen spindle]

hmm I guess that could make sense

[pale sigil]

wonder if i can set a script up to auto transfer content from here to nas

[reef tundra]

rsync?

also allows you to copy with the ability to continue where it was stopped for some reason

[pale sigil]

i mean automatically every day

gonna be a while

archiving it

[pale sigil]

Also windows

[reef tundra]

Should be crossplatform as well

Because of the flexibility, speed, and scriptability of rsync, it has become a standard Linux utility, included in all popular Linux distributions. It has been ported to Windows (via Cygwin, Grsync, or SFU[15]), FreeBSD,[16] NetBSD,[17] OpenBSD,[18] and macOS.

Apparently you can also have it compress the data for faster transfer

Also great thing it does, is the way it treats the data transfer in blocks of data instead of files. so many smaller files are as fast to send as large files. in theory

[reef tundra]

That is not relevant, missing the underlying meaning of them having to shift production

[young pecan]

If 2060s are useless I'll take a bunch.

Can probably push 1GH/s out of my farm if I have a few of those cards.

20 or so.

Neat

that cpu usage when organising though though 😂

from 1.2% to 95% cpu usage haha

[dry tendon]

I am not a fan of RTX 2060

6GB on a GPU as powerful as the GTX 1080 is a joke IMHO

but it isnt useless

[crisp granite]

locke

why do you care

no one can "buy" an RTX or RX 6000 GPU rn

so...does it matter if it can run games?

don't wear em

crush the jewels too much

[reef tundra]

Just buy the gt 710, the best graphics card on the markt right now

[cursive summit]

Imagine being so wrong

Just feel sad for you

[reef tundra]

Thats... symphathy.. nice

[crisp granite]

exactly

the one GPU you can get for less than $1000 rn

[reef tundra]

Checkmate, atheists

[halcyon moss]

aw shit

[reef tundra]

Why is it in Germanic? Barbarian..

[ashen spindle]

yeah because everyone cares about RT performance in nvidia optimized games

I'll go and enjoy my higher fps for less money and less powerdraw in the other 40 hours of games I play a week

[reef tundra]

Why is it missing metro exodus enchanced in that list. 🤔

Also isnt dlss made to help with that, still. Why the rage boner for 2060?

[cursive summit]

He's trolling

Also you kinda don't want any kind of AA in a game like Siege

That's what you want in a competitive shooter

Just get a 4K display

[halcyon moss]

"just"

[cursive summit]

If you dare to push RTX, you might as well have cash

Fuck do you need RTX for

[ashen spindle]

4k non RTX is also looking good enough to not kill your eyes

Is this one also memory speed starved?

Can you FSR DLSS?

5x the FPS

Double the filter for double the fps

[ashen spindle]

yet it already looks better than dlss' first implementation

idk anything dlss before the 2.0 demo was just bad

or I guess anything before the 1.9 in control to be fair

yeah and it didn't get better in that time

[zenith sonnet]

FSR probably won't be as sharp as DLSS 2.0 in still pictures
But it can't have temporal artifacting by design

[astral haven]

Control, metro, and no man's sky

[astral haven]

And that's not true because all 3d games from current gen use ta, which fsr could easily cause artifacts as an interaction

[zenith sonnet]

Then just turn it off

[ashen spindle]

https://twitter.com/VideoCardz/status/1404461294347034625 sure hope amd are gonna work on that or else intel is gonna snack their gpu spot lol

[astral haven]

It's not possible to turn off ta

[zenith sonnet]

That's not an issue with FSR though. That's on the game, then

[astral haven]

It would prevent a ton of effects from working including most forms of advanced antialiasing and texture filtering

You've gotta understand that rasterizing is a very complicated process

Any messing with it is very very jank

If you told a film executive you could render their film in half the time but you couldn't use Houdini simulations you would hear their laughing even after you exited the elevator on the bottom floor

[zenith sonnet]

Why would you not be able to turn it off? I have plenty of games where it's an option.

[crimson wigeon]

Because sadly many modern rendering techniques abuse the blurryness of it to cover up for other effects

Like say reflections, they might be annoyingly noisy without the TAA blurrghosting

[zenith sonnet]

Well, I still miss the times of crisp, sharp graphics like Gothic 2 had

[crimson wigeon]

I hate TAA so much it makes visuals so fucking blurry and the ghosting artifacts are shitty to look at

And yet developers think it's a-ok because people seem to just accept it now?

After ridiculing FXAA for being a blur filter while TAA is 10 times worse

[astral haven]

Most games just lower the back sampling to 1 frame when you turn it off
It's just like msaa
Force msaa off and the brightness of most textures will drop in half and transparencies will all become mega pixelated

[astral haven]

I'm not talking about taa, taa is the older version of ta with less smarts and with huge backsampling

[astral haven]

Have you played doom or any ue4 game?
