[young pecan]

But basic efficient coding? Bruh.

[old marlin]

on top of his own shit

but if you apply like 200 mods

and they all add stuff

and all get handled differently

[young pecan]

Learn from Terraria 1.1, do not do Terraria 1.1 netcode.

[old marlin]

gl optimizing that as a total

[young pecan]

Terraria 1.1 netcode is fucking cursed.

[shadow minnow]

This modpack is mix of every single mod that looked interesting. But some mods don’t work well, gotta check if there are new versions. Also one mod would require me to change biome ids in config since no unlimited ids supported which would take possibly hours.

[young pecan]

Rebuild modpack, yeah.

[shadow minnow]

Nope, want most mods there. Possibly gonna update all mods but that’s around it. I would have to remove like 400 biomes if I wanted it to work well without spending time which I also don’t want to do.

Not enough IDs is the best 1.12.2 mod

[young pecan]

Dude, you should rebuild the modpack because it's not optimized at all.

Keep the mods, but do the base level rebuild first.

Make default forge + optimization mods.

Probably take you a few days, but more modpacks is more good.

Hell, upload it to Curse as well, big packs that're well made aren't too common.

Always just cursed.

[shadow minnow]

This is cursed. Also huge mix. Flying stuff, basically all tech mods, optionally Emc, huge amount of biomes, I would need OTG for even more good ones, and also magic mods… basically everything Could not even uploaded to some stuff because too many mods.

[vagrant pagoda]

There is a tick profiler plugin

It's not 100% accurate, but it dose a good job

[reef patrol]

[empty wren]

Wow Samsung come on really

[reef patrol]

I have a feeling the EU might get involved.

[wheat plume]

tbf, most custom roms wont work on the fold anyway

cause a lot of it is custom code to support folding in the way that they do

[empty wren]

I think we are the point where custom firmwares are mostly pointless, they are pretty much behind what exists. Performances gains seem unnoticeable. Only real reason to jump onto a custom firmware is for a different stock look.

[reef patrol]

I fail to see the argument there

[wheat plume]

If you have a custom rom, the folding support wont work very well

you wont be able to do some of the things for multitasking and whatnot they added in

[empty wren]

Fair point but sadly unless someone intends to build it themselves only devices I have seen to degoogle is pixels

[empty wren]

That will eventually work fine, just needs a lot of time to be ported.

[shadow minnow]

Only way my pc finds multimc is by searching through whole disk. Search function working very well again.

[shadow minnow]

Luckily error code has told me enough details so just gonna try to update/remove mod that caused it.

Linpack is pretty good for heating up room, 300w of cpu power consumption, since it’s getting cold. Surprisingly cpu block does not get hot at all, just cpu can hit 96c and water gets 3 c warmer

[ashen spindle]

at least run folding@home or something if you just want it to heat

[crimson wigeon]

Mine crypto

[shadow minnow]

Actually thinking of that but atm I am not really running at stable speeds so not yet, but thinking about letting that run overnight.

[shadow minnow]

With iGPU?

[crimson wigeon]

Yes and CPU

[shadow minnow]

Definitely rather folding at home.

Even if I wanted to mine crypto profit fees here are pretty high afaik.

Don’t really need that much heat

Linpack alone can get to 96c. Surprisingly the 100% linpack load periods are colder and lot less power consuming compared to 75% ones.

I burn my cpu for heat

Pc with GPU under full load can actually be comparably hot to some heaters

Here just wood (and silicone) is burned for heat. Also no gas at all coming to house where I live.

Hmm, strange, one cpu code is lot colder than average, should I increase clock on it. Question is if I can just add +100 or sth since I am using different frequencies based on cores active.

I don’t. One thing is that I don’t like what they sometimes do with voltages. But also with 11900k there are not many extra gains even with custom watercooling.

Some cores get lot colder, any way to set +100mhz to set frequencies instead of per core limit with RKL?

[ashen spindle]

tf are you trying to do

[shadow minnow]

Increase frequency on “better cores” that get less hot

By less I mean almost 20c

[ashen spindle]

but it's not like zen where two cores get selected as best cores and get thread priority

also you do realise increasing their speed will make the other cores hotter?

[shadow minnow]

Sure, but there is some spaces for other cores to get bit hotter. Found that I can set per core frequency limit but don’t think that would help since biggest issue is usually voltage drop with multi core boost, and cores are already on lower frequency so it would not help for multi core workloads.

[ashen spindle]

what

so you dont think its doing anything for multicore

but still want to increase some cores for multicore

[shadow minnow]

The point is, settings only allow me to limit per core frequency, what I would need to do is increase frequency +100mhz for some cores no matter base frequency

[ashen spindle]

very misleading headline

fabs charge by wafer not by chip

and a wafer price increase is in no way an equal price increase for resulting chips

[shadow minnow]

Don’t get DVID. No matter what number I set, it’s not dynamic, it’s just added to voltage and no matter the load voltages stays as high. For example 1.2v vcore and 200mv dvid results in voltage being 1.4v no matter the load for some reason.

[vagrant pagoda]

if using dvid leave vcore on auto

[shadow minnow]

Yeah rather won’t use it then. Since with my current frequencies voltages sometimes get high on auto.

[vagrant pagoda]

just saying that is your issue

dynamic voltage is offset for the vcore

which means if you set both, they just add together

dvid is more for raising or lowering the auto setting

[shadow minnow]

Ram unstable at settings it was previously more stable at again smh.

[vagrant pagoda]

i had the same thing recently

turned out it was just airflow over the ram

[shadow minnow]

Thing is that it’s not stable at same temps it used to be at.

[ashen spindle]

" it was previously more stable at"

so it wasnt stable

[shadow minnow]

Well it was not totally, but totally stable does not really have a definition. Basically it was previously stable at lot higher temps, and now errors are on lower.
Of course when you get more heat even very stable things stop being as stable.

[ashen spindle]

ok, rephrased: you knew it was unstable to a certain degree, so changing things and then back to those unstable things is not guaranteed the same level of "sometimes stable"

thats how it is

[shadow minnow]

Sure, but the differences are sometimes too highs. Also anything can be seen as unstable to certain degree. However previously it was completely stable unless under memory focused stress test which got it to 10c higher temps than normal usage. Apart from that it was stable. Now it’s not. Nothing is completely stable too.

[ashen spindle]

yes I don't care about a philosophy talk about it, you're constantly changing about every oc setting available so it's to be expected if something that worked doesnt work anymore is all I'm saying

and not something surprising

[shadow minnow]

I mean I changed all settings back. So sometimes even without changing settings from boot to boot differences are pretty high, sometimes not

[ashen spindle]

yea thats to be expected

[shadow minnow]

Makes finding out which settings are better lot harder, especially with manually changing every secondary timing.

[ashen spindle]

welcome to the world where we made sand smart

[shadow minnow]

Now my modpac not only needs specific config folder since some world ids had to be changed an OTG, but also specific Java arguments that some mods need on windows, great

Why am I getting errors I would not get on macOS smh

3 new errors with forge. Before it worked. Smh

[reef tundra]

good job

[shadow minnow]

Only thing I changed was OS

[astral haven]

Run Minecraft servers in docker

[shadow minnow]

Of server, just client.

[fair gull]

@wheat plume https://youtu.be/Vid8lIXmZwE?t=355

should ur cons ever drift

this fixes it

and is prob why my old cons dont drift yet

[reef patrol]

I'll try that tomorrow. I have my doubts though.

[fair gull]

u can squeeze test

[reef patrol]

My joycon doesn't drift very consistently.

It just sometimes rarely go full north.

So... hard to test 😄

[wheat plume]

oh, I already knew this fix

[fair gull]

u see i didnt

i added a 1.5mm self adhering rubber rubber sheet to it when swapping shells tho

cause i wanted my stick this tiny bit further towars the upper shell

[crisp granite]

tony wanted his stick sticking up a bit further

😳

[shadow minnow]

Either it’s multimc or windows but the same mods and config that work on macOS, don’t on windows. First I had to disable one mod on windows, then add something to Java arguments and yet it not work.
Would try non multi mc but can’t.

[vagrant elk]

There is such a massive difference between different distributions for the Pinephone.

Manjaro regularly made it lose all of its battery pretty quickly. I couldn't even leave it unplugged over night because it would die.

Arch has been unplugged for 14 hours and its only lost 10% of its charge.

[wheat plume]

O.o

Woah

[vagrant elk]

I'm thinking Manjaro had a problem with the default power settings.

Not completely sure but that big of a difference shouldn't be a thing when both of them are Arch or Arch-based.

[wheat plume]

Yeah... Idk either

[vagrant elk]

I do have to say that the battery life is getting a lot better with every update. I was never expecting it to be this good.

[young pecan]

I can sorta get that, kinda.

Though simply being able to do basically everything a laptop does with one tiny device is unbelievably useful.

Quite literally having the entire wealth of knowledge of all of humanity at your fingertips, it's something that people of 40 years ago would have considered a dream.

Yet this be the reality we live in.

I mean shit, it's something your average man in the 50s would think impossible. Tech really does improve quickly.

Certainly could be better, yeah.

[astral haven]

valve help

[old marlin]

why does nintendo not do that

like

they could even have a pad on top of the module

to keep the console as slim as possible

[old marlin]

a friend of me had drift for over a year now

and he uses them quite a bit

he never sent them in because he would not have them for a month

and new joycons are 70€

the problem is even stupider than I originally expected

[timid chasm]

This shit is always scary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tF4DML7FIWk

[shadow minnow]

For some reason monitor limiting DP to 1.2 fixed my strange issues.

[shadow minnow]

finally, this monitor looks so much better

[vagrant pagoda]

Yep, it's why I miss my Sony ux atleast once a month

[wheat plume]

Uh yes, this is totally the right name of this song

[young pecan]

[wheat plume]

YT Music has an oopsie

wtf

🤔 When i search for it also its there too

[umbral knot]

insert obligatory imagine dragon deez nuts joke here

[shadow minnow]

Looking at the numbers I can’t say I am the biggest fan of hue much I spent on my pc

[umbral knot]

speaking of big fans have you seen corsair's ll500 fan

they post about it on tiktok and I want it

[shadow minnow]

Yes. Would be useful for my 11900k

[umbral knot]

for anybody who hasn't seen it

[wheat plume]

Since MS Word started to make the document itself have a dark background, non of my diagrams look good anymore....

[halcyon moss]

[reef patrol]

Oh boye. I just splurged on a TV for my consoles.

40$

https://tenor.com/view/baby-throw-window-money-cash-gif-4498486

are you sure you'll be able to make rent after such a large purchase?

[reef patrol]

Back to pole dancing at the local chinese takeout place.

[wheat plume]

a tv for 40 dollars? is it 720p?

[reef patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/roast-turkey-turkey-thanksgiving-gif-18067752

[crisp granite]

that is such a cursed statement

holy shit

[reef patrol]

Used Sony from 11. 32" with all the inputs I need and not a huge bezel.

[wheat plume]

back

[reef patrol]

Definitely not a thing boy tho.

[wheat plume]

👀

[reef patrol]

I need the SCART and Component for the older consoles. Cause fuck spending a fortune on those retro upscalers right now 😄

[wheat plume]

Looks like the TV we currently have in the sitting room

Sony Bravia

has SCART port also

[reef patrol]

Not even a bad deal honestly. Probably on par with the 43...? inch Samsung we have in the living room.

Except obviously smaller 😄

[shadow minnow]

Just tried folding at home. Apparently GPU better at it so only got 65000 points a day estimate. Issue is that after pc restart it stopped working. Reinstalling, different browser, nothing helps.

[shadow minnow]

Hmm, now it’s 83000

290w

[vagrant elk]

My 3950x when under load pulls close to 250 watts.

[ashen spindle]

tf how much did you OC that

[reef patrol]

Yes.

[vagrant elk]

Well it hits around 4.25 or 4.35 GHz on all cores.

I could've tuned it to every individual core but I was too lazy.

[ashen spindle]

I mean almost double the stock tdp is impressive to run stable

[vagrant elk]

I did modifications to my cooling setup to get it to work that well.

Mostly lapping the CPU IHS.

[umbral knot]

modifications? Do those perhaps include liquid nitrogen

[reef patrol]

https://edition.cnn.com/2021/08/19/weather/greenland-summit-rain-climate-change/index.html

This is what Fymrin means. They're melting the glaciers.

[crisp granite]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[umbral knot]

submerge a pc in a block of ice

[vagrant elk]

Nope, this was on a standard watercooling loop. I was using a 360mm radiator and an Optimus PC waterblock.

[crisp granite]

Greenland might actually be green in a few years

[vagrant elk]

Running the same OC on this 240mm Liquid Freezer Arctic II seems to be stable as well.

It doesn't run as cool but it does remain stable.

[crisp granite]

how the f*ck does one get that nice of an OC that stable?

silicon lottery and a seriously nice mobo?

[vagrant elk]

Crosshair VIII Hero.

[crisp granite]

yeah

[vagrant elk]

It isn't even the best motherboard on the market either.

[crisp granite]

definitely a nicer one though

[vagrant elk]

I setup a lot of custom things in the BIOS.

Don't even get me started on my RAM overclock.

[umbral knot]

get started

[crisp granite]

something tells me it ain't just XMP

[umbral knot]

I want to know

[crisp granite]

and I assume you really dialled in your infinity fabric as well

[vagrant elk]

One moment. Let me check the timings again.

16GB of 3600MHz memory running at 14-14-8-12-30-42 and 241 tRFC

I was running it at 3666 MHz but that seemed to be unstable. Going to have to test it again to make sure it's stable and wasn't just an OS error.

[crisp granite]

I don't know half of what you just said

must be quite impressive though

I got 16 gb at 3733 mhz, CL17

never found a way to get latency to creep any lower

[vagrant elk]

It's an extremely impressive overclock.

Well, the memory overclocking community says it isn't that big of a deal but it's a big deal to me.

[umbral knot]

I have 48gb 3200mhz CL17 or CL18 can't remember which

[vagrant elk]

Generally timings have more of an impact than frequency.

[crisp granite]

🤨

what mismatch of kits are you using to get 48 gigabytes of RAM?

[vagrant elk]

Probably 16GB and 32GB.

I had that setup at one point before I knew better.

[young pecan]

I had to fix a PC once that had a 16, 8, and 2 RAM config.

That was some super fucked up performance.

[umbral knot]

the only reason I'm using 48 is because I bought two 32g kits but one of the 16g sticks was doa so I used two 8s on that instead of an 8 and a 16

[young pecan]

Ah.

[vagrant elk]

A few weeks ago I saw a commercial for "vegan beeswax". I had to laugh.

[empty wren]

You could say,
They grounded it

[fair gull]

how to test an opto cuppler with a meter

thats not what i asked

[shadow minnow]

Setting folding at home power to light changes nothing

[misty saffron]

so i finally need to use the fucking female-female ethernet adapter

flat i’m renting has a PAINFULLY short ethernet wire

the router is supposed to be hanging on its power cable lmao

can’t really do that considering my router has a hard drive in it

[reef patrol]

[fair gull]

need those way too often

[fair gull]

dont u just have a shitty igpu

[shadow minnow]

Yes, but it’s working on cpu. Get up to 87000 points a day estimate consuming almost 300w. But wish moderate mod would decrease it a bit to like 230w for lot lower temps.

[fair gull]

get a cpu that runs cooler by default

easy fix

[young pecan]

AMD, methinks.

Or maybe infinity fabric would be detrimental to FAH.

Idk. That’s been tested, yes?

[fair gull]

easy fix just do the math manually by hand

[shadow minnow]

It would if I didn’t overclock

[young pecan]

Just teach the Asian kids with FAH problems. Easier fix.

That’s the biggest lesson in life.

[fair gull]

idk why u complain then

[young pecan]

No matter who you are, no matter what you do, there is going to be someone in Asia that actually destroys you in it.

The work ethic over there is nuts.

[fair gull]

being dumb

is what i do

[young pecan]

shrugs My point stands.

[fair gull]

ok

im also good at being me

[young pecan]

...

Given how many people live in the greater Asian area... maybe?

[fair gull]

ok so

[young pecan]

It’s not unlikely that there’s someone out there that’s basically you.

[fair gull]

i can just kill myself

[young pecan]

Hells no.

[fair gull]

hells yes

[young pecan]

For self explanatory reasons hells no.

[fair gull]

an asian guy will just replace me

[young pecan]

M8.

I’m like 99.9% sure I have an exactly 0 percent chance of actually locating this theoretical Asian dude.

Probably exists in the same way aliens probably exist.

[fair gull]

ill bet on the .1%

[shadow minnow]

Because games consume lot less power, or even normal benchmarks. So I would have to go too down with clocks for other things. Almost nothing else eats over 150w

[shadow minnow]

No

[shadow minnow]

Microsoft is so annnoying with the browser recommendation. Literally worse than apple in this way with customization.

And on windows 11 there are even multiple settings required to change it…

[latent mural]

i havent been happy with the networking on win 11

[crimson wigeon]

I haven't been happy with the forced thicc taskbar without any labels

[latent mural]

lmao yeah that too

[vagrant elk]

I'll just wait till 2025 when it's hopefully fixed and tuned more than it is now.

Small correction on my part as well, there is no need to hit "more options" to see rename. Rename is now an icon on the main menu and I didn't realise.

Regardless, I went back to Windows 10 for now.

[empty wren]

Edge browser do be pretty good though. If it was old edge or internet explorer I could understand the outrage.

[wheat plume]

He has a fucking ghilli suit for this video :') https://youtu.be/cPbKsX8uzUI

Multiple.... wtf

[wheat plume]

I read that as muslim and idk why....

[shadow minnow]

No matter how good the browser is, still the way it’s done is just…

[empty wren]

It gives more control honestly at the end of the day

[misty saffron]

need 4 meters of ethernet cable, do i have to buy anything fancy or do i just say fuck it

[reef patrol]

Eff it.

[earnest jay]

AS Mansen said, if you don't care, than f@#$ it, if you do care, feel free to go fancy, they won't really be that expensive anyway.

[vagrant pagoda]

Just join 4 1 meter cables with those female females lol

[timid chasm]

or just get/make a 4 meter cable like somebody who isn't a psychopath

[vagrant pagoda]

Hahaha

You could wire nut together a pair of 2m

[vapid zodiac]

or you could get a 12m cable and have it go there and back and there again

[vagrant pagoda]

Tie it in a bow

[vapid zodiac]

whatever floats your boat ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[hard marsh]

sorry for asking, but where are the wooting keyboards being produced ? (origin of the country)

im just curious

[reef patrol]

Mainland China. 🙂

Like... well... almost all other consumer electronics really 😄

[hard marsh]

oh thanks, i kinda guessed it

[ashen spindle]

didnt they move parts to taiwan or was that just the wrist rest?

[hard marsh]

would be interesting to know how much it would cost to make keyboards in europe

[reef patrol]

Given how many tiny parts need to be produced in China anyway... probably a lot 😄

You'd mostly be wasting money on import fees, still needing to visit China.

Let's say everything is made from Wooting down to the smallest circuits. They'd need a massive EU based fabrication plant to make everything.

And that's assuming they could license all of those components - Or spend a ton of R&D on creating clones 😄

[hard marsh]

oh i see, i wasnt aware of that

[vagrant pagoda]

Pretty sure the only the military is making electronics with no Chinese parts

[astral haven]

Not even
No Chinese manufactured ics

But the case, secondary risers, and plastic components are still made in china

[astral haven]

As I said

[vagrant pagoda]

Depends on the device and manufacturer

Some are 100% us made and sourced. They get a bonus factor on contracts for it.

It's how Intel/ti/etc can operate us fabs

They get massive bonuses, tax breaks and incentives for us made products for the dod

Intel has us sourced only chip for secured machines

As well as motherboards and memory

HP and Cisco have us made networking equipment

Intel also dose ASIC for secured devices for DOD

[astral haven]

Dell HP and Lenovo all use those guidelines for made in USA products

[vagrant pagoda]

HP 100% offers us sourced only equipment for large customers

As I've handed it before

They come in different packaging which is holographic sealed entirely

They are like 3~4x the cost

Cisco offers it as well

[wheat plume]

If you install Linux onto a portable SSD, like those ones that plug in via USB
Could you essentially have a computer you can carry with you? XD to boot into at any computer?

[reef patrol]

...yes.

Drivers will be a nightmare though.

[vagrant elk]

Tails does exactly this. It resets all of your files each boot and is intended for people that need that functionality like journalists.

[crimson wigeon]

Ehhh not really unless Nvidia seriously molests your system

[ashen spindle]

im sure if windows can do it, so can linux

[wheat plume]

hmm...Yeah, if its install on a system with nvidia drivers, then it may not boot on a system without a nvidia gpu

[reef patrol]

You're still going to be installing drivers every single time you visit a new system though 😄

And it doesn't work all that well on Windows to be fair.

[wheat plume]

Yeah, I want TAILS but permanent, like booting into your desktop computer but on a different one

[crimson wigeon]

You generally don't "install" drivers on Linux systems though

[vagrant elk]

If you install the actual operating system and not a live image that could technically work.

[wheat plume]

Thats what im saying yes

[reef patrol]

Of course you do. 😄

[crimson wigeon]

Since 99.8% of the drivers you'd ever use are always included unless you use a really minimal distro

[reef patrol]

Just because it isn't a bunch of fancy wizards, doesn't mean you just have all of the drivers pre-configured for every setup.

[vagrant elk]

Just know in advance that drivers could be an issue if you swap it between PCs a lot but I'm sure you know that already. Other than that, yes it should technically be possible.

[wheat plume]

i think the nvidia drivers might be a pain

and wifi maybe

Luckily, I have not had wifi problems on my of my devices with Linux

But my friend had... he had some cheap ass USB wifi card and it barely worked even on Windows

He eventually got a PCIE Intel card

[vagrant elk]

Avoid the USB WiFi cards. I had one where a hotspot was required to download the driver and get it to work.

[wheat plume]

Yeah....

They shitty

I am trying to find the card he got.... it was some chinese brand

[vagrant elk]

The official driver from the company website breaks the Linux kernel for me. Literally doesn't boot with it installed.

[wheat plume]

o.o

[crimson wigeon]

Yeah if it's not in the kernel it's probably of dubious quality

[vagrant elk]

I had to find a really stupid version on GitHub.

[wheat plume]

M.2 wifi card....wut now

[crimson wigeon]

Yes, newer laptops tend to use those

[wheat plume]

o.o

[crisp granite]

not even newer laptops

[crimson wigeon]

M.2 is after all just a different looking PCIe

[crisp granite]

my HP netbook from yester-decade has one

[wheat plume]

Does it matter what antennea I use? Cause I dont like the one my mobo came with, I want ones that screw onto the back instead

[crisp granite]

that badboi also shipped with either win7 or 8

forgot which

[crimson wigeon]

oh right 10 years ago was 2011 damn feels like last year

[wheat plume]

o.o

[reef patrol]

NVME is anyway 😉

M.2 as a socket not so much.

[crimson wigeon]

NVME is the standard for PCIe storage devices yes

[wheat plume]

I must see what the max speed for this is.... hmm

I cant use 5GHz cause my Switch no like it :/

I dont even hit the 2.4GHz speed anyway so yeah...

[reef patrol]

Lifehack : Use both

[wheat plume]

Cant on mobile hotspot

you must choose

[reef patrol]

Ah yes - We've had this talk before. Use ethernet :3

[wheat plume]

If I could, I would

[wheat plume]

The house I am in next semester has real speedy wifi

[reef patrol]

Need a dock.

[wheat plume]

Maybe the ethernet works too but idk

Cause it didnt in the last house I stayed in

[reef patrol]

You uh... you DO know access points can pick up wifi and give you ethernet ports. 😄

[wheat plume]

yes

[vagrant elk]

Avanna is about to become the flash in terms of internet speed.

Well, when the semester starts that is.

[wheat plume]

I like the Manjaro GRUB theme... This is nice

[wheat plume]

nah, its like 30MB/s

[vagrant elk]

Manjaro just looks nice in general.

[wheat plume]

Better than mine though

[vagrant elk]

30 MB/s is still plenty though. I only get around 10 MB/s and it's fast enough to download a lot of games quickly.

[wheat plume]

Is LibreOffice using QT? Cause it looks far better in Plasma than any GTK desktop I have seen

[crimson wigeon]

It uses its own widget toolkit that pretends to be GTK or Qt depending on what you prefer

[reef tundra]

its a jpeg

[wheat plume]

oh..... hmm

[vagrant elk]

My landlord is paying for 600 MB/s download and upload but doesn't know that her router can only handle 100/100.

[wheat plume]

o...

Thats a better situation than my previous landlord

[vagrant elk]

The speed I said above is my steam download speed. I don't know why but steam never uses my maximum download speed even if I tell it to.

[wheat plume]

He was paying for real speedy wifi but since he had 16 houses in the estate and only ONE ROUTER IN THE MAINTANENCE SHED
IT WAS SUPER FUCKING SLOW

[vagrant elk]

Otherwise it's somewhere around 70 MB/s if I remember right.

[wheat plume]

each house had an Access Point but no router

[vagrant elk]

How did he think that would be a good idea?

[wheat plume]

IDFK

He upgraded it last year

but didnt get extra routers

[crimson wigeon]

Eh that could work well assuming the APs were connected with ethernets

[wheat plume]

NOPE

WIFI

The ethernet ports didnt work

[vagrant elk]

Get each apartment their own internet plan OR get a custom internet plan and share that with access points over ethernet.

[reef tundra]

US is calling, stop copying their infrastructure

[wheat plume]

The thing is.... one day I saw the ISP van in the car park and I assume they took a look at his existing system and just didnt bother to tell him get a router for each house?!

That was when he swapped provider

[vagrant elk]

Sounds like laziness or they didn't know.

[crimson wigeon]

Eh sounds like someone who thinks WiFi is just magic wireless who even needs cables

[vagrant elk]

I don't even trust wireless for a mouse let alone my internet.

[wheat plume]

:')

If this mouse breaks, idek what id get to replace it

cause idk any other mouse that stores settings onboard

[vagrant elk]

Glorious does.

[wheat plume]

and has buttons I can assign to media controls

[vagrant elk]

You have to hit apply in software and then it saves in the mouse but the media control doesn't work in Linux.

[ashen spindle]

you're currently describing about 90% of mice on the market

[crimson wigeon]

Ah yes Glorious hardware needing special quirks in the kernel how wonderful

[wheat plume]

That does not sound glorious

[vagrant elk]

My solution in the future will be a 60 HE keyboard and a separate custom 20% keyboard for all media controls, OBS scenes and all of that stuff.

[wheat plume]

🤔

[vagrant elk]

Preferably with a dial for volume control.

[crisp granite]

cool, but also...why do that to yourself?

get a full size and a few button boards

[crimson wigeon]

Why not

[crisp granite]

larger = better

[reef tundra]

It should also do your taxes

[vagrant elk]

I'm a masochist or something I don't know.

[crisp granite]

cool

so am I

using a 60% rn

the pain

[vagrant elk]

Doge, those are rookie numbers.

You need this, hold on. Let me get the picture.

[crisp granite]

please not a planck or preonic
I've tried a planck before and I can't make it work

it's just...yikes

[wheat plume]

You both need this https://youtu.be/sVInBOLSqoM

[crisp granite]

I could do the layers, or the ortho

but both at once is too much for me

[vagrant elk]

Apparently the 40% market has grown considerably.

[wheat plume]

The spacebar is an upside down shift key xd

[crisp granite]

staggered...small form factor for maximum pain...meh

sounds too good

that but with outemu blues maybe

[wheat plume]

it sounds soooo good

[crisp granite]

and a really really shitty stab for the spacebar

[vagrant elk]

Is there a form factor smaller than 40% for a proper keyboard, not a numpad?

[crisp granite]

uh, I'm sure someone has done a 3x5 per hand split

[vagrant elk]

Yay! More reasons to potentially hate my past self for making bad decisions for future me!

[crisp granite]

ben valleck iirc

name something like that

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0bBmcoVsm8

the pain

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vv98LPMA7-M

let's one up that

fuck spacing out your shoulders

more pain

[vagrant elk]

Something tells me Doge enjoys pain a little too much.

@wheat plume Why does that keyboard sound good?

[crisp granite]

cherry housings are great for sound due to the nylon material

[vagrant elk]

That keyboard is so small it doesn't even have a layer key.

[crisp granite]

with a thinner lube and actually decent stems, you can get some shockingly nice sounding switches

[vagrant elk]

I'm waiting for a company to come along and create a keyboard with a 60% size, a 4k OLED display, SSD, hard drive, power supply and other stupid stuff.

Basically an all-in-one but in a keyboard form factor for no apparent reason.

With an attached screen for extra anxiety and self-hatred.

[crisp granite]

pretty sure apple did as close as they could with the tech they had...40-ish years ago with the apple IIc

ngl, I want one

[vagrant elk]

Imagine that but the display is just a 4k OLED going straight up.

[crisp granite]

and I even have one part of it

a drop in replacement keyboard module

[wheat plume]

I forgot I got ice cream at the fast food place and its still in my fridge....

[crisp granite]

but it's fresh

I got it sealed

[wheat plume]

Time for melted but still cold ice cream

[crisp granite]

it's virgin

untouched

I'd feel dirty using it

and worst of all, I know there's amber alps in there

[vagrant elk]

I do that all the time with Dairy Queen Blizzards.

I think they capitalise the Blizzard name but I don't know.

[wheat plume]

hmmmmm

Another place I have never once been to

[vagrant elk]

They have good chicken strip baskets.

[wheat plume]

wait wait

[vagrant elk]

Actual chicken, not like chicken nuggets from McDonalds.

[wheat plume]

I thought they were jsut ice cream and things

[vagrant elk]

Chicken, burgers, desserts.

That's basically the menu.

[wheat plume]

ooh

[crisp granite]

I've never actually been to a DQ 😅

usually I don't eat out

[vagrant elk]

Mushroom swiss burger and the chicken strip baskets are my preference.

[crisp granite]

or if I do, it's whatever decent ramen shop is near

[vagrant elk]

I mostly stick to places I know but sometimes I try new things and enjoy it.

[crisp granite]

sounds like diabetes

[vagrant elk]

Mint Oreo Blizzard.

[crisp granite]

dark chocolate. 90%

[vagrant elk]

Ignore the misspelling of the word. I'm not dumb I swear.

[crisp granite]

100 gram

that's all you need in life

[vagrant elk]

100% or you haven't lived.

[crisp granite]

I've had 100%

it's actually amazing

oh jeez

mess food is always awful

🤨

I have never had decent mess food in my life

[vagrant elk]

I don't remember the brand but there's a store near me that has 100% chocolate on the shelves.

I might get some just so I have a little treat for myself from time to time.

[crisp granite]

nope

not cool enough for that

WTF

it was a dice roll if we even had chocolate milk

and you fucks got ICE CREAM???

[vagrant elk]

I don't know of any places near me that make good milkshakes other than maybe Denny's.

[crisp granite]

still waiting for starbucks to offer alcohol addons to beverages

[vagrant elk]

I might try the coffee from the cafe near me.

It's always nice trying local places.

[crisp granite]

well then, you got your opiates and your fountain pops in the same place

very nice

[vagrant elk]

I can't even trust someone I've known for almost 3 years and some people I've known most of my life. I have issues.

I'm going to go see what the local cafe has because I've never been in there before.

[crisp granite]

...

what?

you live near a cafe...and you've never even set foot inside?

[vagrant elk]

I only discovered it a couple of weeks ago.

I'm just scared of trying new places sometimes but this time it should be fine.

[crisp granite]

(to be fair, there was this Jamaican place near me that I've walked past almost every day for my entire life, just set foot inside a week ago and ordered some oxtail, was actually quite good. TL;DR, I really shouldn't be throwing rocks in a glass house)

[vagrant elk]

Be right back, going to see what they have to offer!

[crisp granite]

the liquor store?

[vagrant elk]

If they have sandwiches I may be a while. I always take a while to figure out what I want.

[vagrant elk]

The local cafe.

[crisp granite]

ah

well then

have fun!

wear a mask or I swear I'll cross borders and oceans to break kneecaps

[vagrant elk]

They have bubble tea as well so I may get some.

[vagrant elk]

I wear a mask everywhere I go, even if I'm on the sidewalk. You can't force me to take the thing off.

[crisp granite]

yus

just like me, outside the house = mask

even if I'm still on the property line, it's 4am, dark, snowing and no one is around

😅

I may have a problem

[vagrant elk]

It's okay, I'm there too.

We are in the same country as well Doge: Canada.

[crisp granite]

I figured that out already

[vagrant elk]

No need to cross oceans or borders.

[crisp granite]

but what province

if you are a quebecer, instant block /s

[vagrant elk]

Knowing where people live you're probably in Ontario or British Columbia.

Almost everyone is from one of those two.

[crisp granite]

yeppers

Ontario

[vagrant elk]

You know the giant middle of the map nobody cares about?

I'm in that giant void.

[crisp granite]

noice

[vagrant elk]

Winter sucks.

[crisp granite]

you said it

it barely snows here anymore

haven't had -20 C in...5 years or more at this point

[vagrant elk]

We get way too much snow, normally the really bad stuff everyone hates.

Normally -40 degrees Centigrade on a regular basis. Some years it's more mild and -20 degrees Centigrade is normal.

[crisp granite]

lucky bastard

[vagrant elk]

Mild years are rare.

Recent years have been so brutal that they cancel school and even close businesses for a few days because it's so brutally cold.

There's always businesses that stay open but the point is winter sucks here.

[crisp granite]

sucks for you, means magical for me

[vagrant elk]

Do you enjoy the brutal sub-zero temperatures or something?

[crisp granite]

yes actually

[vagrant elk]

You are an absolute masochist.

I'm only 649 years old and I have arthritis!

Definitely not using that as a cover for my real age.

[crisp granite]

all elves live to at least 500, most to 750 or more, so you're fairly old

arthritis makes sense at the age of 649

👍

[vagrant elk]

Thanks Doge, good to know I'm normal.

[astral haven]

Look carefully on the risers and sheet metal
It may be assembled in the USA and the motherboard and CPU too, but a number of the parts are made in china
And yes even for the made in USA units with the fancy packaging from dell and hp

[vagrant pagoda]

They literally say on them made from 100% USA parts and materials, so I doubt they would pull a fast one.

[astral haven]

🤷‍♂️ it took patrick 30 seconds to find one

All the fans for example are made in china

[vagrant pagoda]

Doubt

Even on the normal stuff they are almost all delta which would be Taiwan

[astral haven]

https://youtu.be/uAF5prb9Hh0

China is forcing taiwanese manufacturers to say made in roc for their parts

And roc stands for republic of china

[ashen spindle]

so thats where rocM is used

[vagrant pagoda]

Also that isn't want I'm talking about. That is a cheaper version that is off the shelf. The DOD ones come in a antistatic bag that is holographic/tamper resistant

They come with a BOM with company name and traceability for all major components

They also have almost zero expandability, or accessible ports

The trust supply chain stuff is more for SIPRNET or JWICS

But not NSANET

Or other secured networks

[vagrant elk]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAWx_xZIROw

That's just dumb.

[wheat plume]

noice

[pale sigil]

Ohh now it just got personal for Louis

Real personal xD

[reef patrol]

I stopped caring when he explained the problem.

New type of nerf dart. Old ones can break it. Block old ones.

Cool. Not really something you can tie a parallel to Apple to.

[astral haven]

if you let one company get away with it, more follow

[reef patrol]

Curse BIG NERF

They're always trying to push us customers down.

[crisp granite]

Mansen

they aren't going to take my twin stryfes and retrofit them in a way to destroy my old darts, and they definitely won't for anyone else

just...use older blasters

[vagrant pagoda]

I mean they ditched the new dart because parents and kids aren't smart enough to not mix darts. They had the same issue with the suction cup and the streamlime darts

[crisp granite]

the suction cup darts worked fine out of my front loading nerf blasters, like my firestrikes and my triad

but the magazine-fed blasters were a no-go

I figured that would have been obvious given how the suction cups are larger than the diameter of the foam and don't even fit in the mags...unlike the streamline tips

[vagrant elk]

[halcyon moss]

hmm plugging in a new modem/router tonight... i need to backup the static ips i have configured

[vagrant elk]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2z5A-COlDPk

I love his videos.

[wheat plume]

me too

and the subtitles are great too xd

[vagrant elk]

He had a blooper reel in this one.

[timid chasm]

This motherfucker man

best deez nuts joke of all time

If you have it in you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tURHTuKHBZs

15:16 for the lazy and unappreciative

[vagrant elk]

That was a pretty good video.

Have you seen the microwave and toaster that are better than yours?

[timid chasm]

I have not

I imagine most are tbh

[vagrant elk]

The toaster is from the 1940s and consistently browns the toast on both sides reliably and not only take the bread down automatically but also pops it up automatically. The microwave had recipes, cook timers for complicated meals and sensors which made sure that meals were cooked correctly and evenly.

The videos are better than what I could explain.

[wheat plume]

toaster yes

and I want a new one that does the same thing

[crisp granite]

I want one like that, but burns in a darth vader pattern as well

because stupid and pointless novelties are the best

[vagrant elk]

The toaster has a cult built around it where they swear by it being the best thing ever and it's so easy to repair with the single failure point being available almost everywhere.

[crisp granite]

🤨

another rabbit hole says me

do tell, where can one acquire said toaster?

[vagrant elk]

Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OfxlSG6q5Y
Invidious: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=1OfxlSG6q5Y

He covers what toaster's name and brand is, when it was manufactured, how it works and how it can be fixed.

[crisp granite]

ooo

holy shit

you just drop the bread in and it does it's thing

[vagrant elk]

Mhm. Made in the 1940s if my memory is right.

Discontinued in the 1960s or 1970s because the toasters not only lasted a long time but needed one part to be replaced to fix it if it stopped working.

Basically they made such a good product that they went out of business.

[crisp granite]

:(

I would seriously want a new old stock one

my toaster consistently burns my bagels and it pisses me off

[vagrant pagoda]

I own one of those toaster

Had it for like 6 years

Can confirm it's amazing

[timid chasm]

@digital cliff had some recent issues with a toaster. Maybe you want an antique toaster like this one?

[vagrant elk]

Well considering it sells your data I would say it does.

[fair gull]

i need to know why people blindly accept eulas and tos just to later cry about them doing what they said theyd do

[crimson wigeon]

Because reading sucks

[young pecan]

EULAs are typically filled with legal speech that few laymen can understand, much less do anything about.

You really do either need training or a lawyer to get through most of em.

[timid chasm]

uh only an idiot doesn't read the EULA before clicking accept

Are you kyle broflovski?

[young pecan]

Very, very few people read a EULA before agreeing.

That do be the reality. Pogn’t

[old marlin]

which is why EULAs are not necessarily binding in germany

[timid chasm]

My comment was nothing more than a reference to the south park episode about Apples ToS

[old marlin]

ik

[wheat plume]

I had to accept the one from my bank without reading it because the bank assistant was helping setup my account and the eula was legit like 3 pages long
I didn't want to be sitting there for an hour with them

:/

[neat oriole]

Hide mein kampf in ToS

Wait to see how long it takes for people to notice

Get free promo in the media

Profit

[wheat plume]

How do I make Youtube Music regenerate my music playlist image?

cause its using album art of a song I no longer have in the playlist

[old marlin]

great

[wheat plume]

Two of them arent in the playlist now...

fml

I looked up how to change it on google, and it just says put the song you want it to be the image for at the top

THATS NOT WORKLING

it picks 4 random songs it seems

[halcyon moss]

survivalship bias

or whatever thats called

[young pecan]

Survivorship Bias, yeah.

[vagrant pagoda]

You can't really. I play the playlist, then move two songs back and forth, after that you can save it as a new playlist

GPM was superior in every way to YTM

[young pecan]

Speaking of Nirvana, y'know the baby in the album cover there grew up and is now trying to sue the remaining members for child exploitation and trauma.

Life is sad.

[wheat plume]

Yes, cause he is salty he just got $500 for being on the cover

[old marlin]

AFTER he used it to boost his only worth in life

[wheat plume]

He really enjoyed doing that and wanted to replicate it now fully grown

[old marlin]

he literally has the album title tattooed on his chest

[wheat plume]

wow

[young pecan]

Bruh.

Cringe.

[wheat plume]

I think he did recreate the cover

[old marlin]

yes

multiple times

[wheat plume]

idc enough to look

wow

[young pecan]

Complete cringe.

This is why I don't like humanity.

[wheat plume]

That title sums it up perfectly

in the image

[old marlin]

btw

most recent one

still in shit res

but he has "nevermind" on his chest

[young pecan]

Can't afford a go pro...?

Bruh, he actually does.

What a memer.

[old marlin]

there

better res

is from 2016 btw

[wheat plume]

at least he isnt naked in the recreations

[pale sigil]

Anyone know of any software

that will just rip everything from my phone

vs me manually dragging etc

[young pecan]

@pale sigil What phone?

[pale sigil]

Android

[young pecan]

Mmm.

[pale sigil]

unless you mean very specifically

Mi m9t

[young pecan]

How're the files accessed?

Does the phone register as a drive?

[pale sigil]

Like you normally would :p

but the problem with accessing as a drive is it does not index files

unless you manually view the contents

[young pecan]

Ugh, so cloning software won't work.

Cursed.

[halcyon moss]

moving stuff to a new android phone is a bit of a pain.. :/ there is android backups (built in, enable it)
and then the storage is just moving the files over. you can do that with any file manager and file sharing (smb/ftp/sftp) thing

[pale sigil]

BLEH

for me its more

just want to dump shit

and wipe my phone

[halcyon moss]

same thing applies :p

you can also use usb transfer

but.. that wont backup app files/settings

anyway.. i need a new AP to fully ennjoy my new internet speeds :/

[young pecan]

So...

Why exactly is the backup and file transfer system so bad.

??

[halcyon moss]

dont forget the one time password stuff and steam and.. everything else

[crimson wigeon]

Because Google wants you to use ** the cloud** for all your data, nothing else

[young pecan]

sigh

Yeah.

[pale sigil]

and ofc

[wheat plume]

same

[misty saffron]

the definition of fucking asshole design

[reef patrol]

[ashen spindle]

I agree, BUT, so many important things on docker that need saftey updates, I kinda want this just to prevent people from human stubidity

[misty saffron]

the snooze button is still there

[ashen spindle]

oh

nvm all of that then

[crimson wigeon]

But wouldn't you run production on real Linux servers and none of this Windows nonsense?

[misty saffron]

see, asshole design worked on you too

[astral haven]

Imo do whatever you want with a free product as long as all the problems go away when you pay money

If it's too problematic people won't use it to begin with 🤷‍♂️

[misty saffron]

what was the last time you paid for a subscription to skip an update though

[astral haven]

🤷‍♂️ better than the opposite imo

Pay if you don't want to be annoyed

[misty saffron]

i never pay if the software straight up does annoying shit

[crimson wigeon]

Then show them who's boss and do the uninstall

[astral haven]

You probably don't need docker in a professional environment then

[misty saffron]

uninstall?

[crimson wigeon]

Ah yes so still using garbage software

[misty saffron]

if only there were alternatives

[astral haven]

It's a free market fam 🤷‍♂️ use something better

[crimson wigeon]

Podman

[misty saffron]

uh

i don’t think podman is an alternative to airparrot

[crimson wigeon]

oh

Shows how much I looked at the screenshot omegalul

[astral haven]

Aka don't use apple

[crimson wigeon]

That too

[misty saffron]

most of my tech is apple

[astral haven]

Then don't complain about expensive software

[crimson wigeon]

Then you better enjoy that ecosystem

[misty saffron]

i am

[crimson wigeon]

At least it just works

[astral haven]

Dev costs for apple are very very high

Gotta pay somehow

[misty saffron]

i usually say that when i want to trigger somebody though

you like my apple product

[astral haven]

Tbh I get using apple
I've got 2 MacBooks and an iMac within arm's reach
Not to mention my work phone is an iphone

If you want a curated experience for technology it's amazing

But I personally like to own the equipment I paid money for...

[pale sigil]

any basic video editing tool

that isn't vegas etc

[astral haven]

Why not resolve?

[misty saffron]

what’s not basic about vegas

[pale sigil]

or Avedmux

[astral haven]

Vegas has garbage ux

[crimson wigeon]

Resolve

[pale sigil]

the fact its a huge program

when i just wanna clip/speed stuff

[crimson wigeon]

Blender kekw

[astral haven]

Not any more :/

[misty saffron]

try after effects

[astral haven]

Kdenlive is apparently nice but I've never used it

And it's a small install

It's not resolve but it's light and small

[astral haven]

After effects is the most painful video editing software I've ever used

Id rather install windows movie maker

[crimson wigeon]

Windows Photos app kekw

[pale sigil]

Ye

i usually use the photo app

[astral haven]

Or that

[pale sigil]

to crop

but its acting up lately

[astral haven]

Try kden live it's 80MB

[crimson wigeon]

Oh @wheat plume its the KDE team who work on this

[wheat plume]

Work on what?

[astral haven]

Use Microsoft's time lapse software to speed things up it usually looks way better tho it depends

[pale sigil]

https://kdenlive.org/en/

[astral haven]

KDEnlive

[pale sigil]

MS dont have a speed up tho

they have a slow down

but not speedup

[wheat plume]

Oh yeah
I love kdenlive ❤️

[pale sigil]

that i can find

[wheat plume]

It's great

I thought you meant they worked on that game xd

[astral haven]

It's a bit old and it might be android only

[pale sigil]

huh?

[astral haven]

Hyperlapse
That's what it's called

Hyperlapse pro is available online somewhere and Microsoft put a key code for it on their forums somewhere

I wish kdenlive wasn't so fucking unstable for me.

[reef patrol]

Retailer does scummy but entirely legal thing.

More at 10.

[ashen spindle]

I dont think them falsely saying its the same performance is entirely legal if one would go to court for that?

[reef patrol]

Oh I just skimmed it to be fair.

THAT isn't true. 😄

But cancelling orders is not illegal.

[ashen spindle]

'exactly the same performance as its predecessor'

[reef patrol]

[ashen spindle]

so personally I think they just made a mistake and had this form for everyone non lhr card and messed up this 3070 model with the 3060 mail

or thats how they are hiding it if someone comes after it idk

[wheat plume]

Finally... it updated the playlist thumbnail

[halcyon moss]

the stuff you care about lol

[wheat plume]

Finally, some good fucking charts

[wheat plume]

yeah, cause I dont want a naked baby part of the thumbnail when the song from that album is no longer in the playlist

Heat map charts....

where color and size show the same data

[misty saffron]

what in the flying fuck

how is that supposed to be readable

[wheat plume]

If you saw the whole chart, it has the x and y axis labels and a legend

and if you hover over any dot it tells you the x and y values

even the file the data comes from!

Amazing

x axis: var 1
y axis: var 2
color and size of dots: var 3

[misty saffron]

yes brb hovering over a specific dot in that huge clump

[wheat plume]

ikr....

i dont design the charts, I just code and document them

If they want a heatmap, i aint arguing

Other than the fact this library is fucking POINTLESSLY DIFFICULT .-.

It calls plots "traces"

and the entire chart as a whole as the plot

fig["Layout"].update()

LIKE WHAT?!

[halcyon moss]

why is blue off by a half chart?

[wheat plume]

Different bin range

blue 18.5 - 19.5
red 18 - 19
etc

This is terrible presentation design but hey, I was told to point to the things im referring to with arrows, so not my problem

Ok, this is peak bad design...

[misty saffron]

there we go

50cm ethernet cable from isp isn’t a problem anymore

[wheat plume]

oh?

[misty saffron]

bought 15m cat5e and a f-f adapter

[wheat plume]

aha

[halcyon moss]

heh, i got a similar solution for my poe accesspoint

[wheat plume]

is it better with orange or black arrows?

[crimson wigeon]

Why not both

[wheat plume]

lol

[halcyon moss]

black

contrast is king

especially in presentations

[shadow minnow]

True

[wheat plume]

I pickd orange at first since i change font color ot orange for key words

Since normal text is blue

[halcyon moss]

you gonna present this over a videocall?

or irl?

make them thicker and high contrast

[wheat plume]

Videocall i think, its not me presenting it

Thats my supervisor's job

If I knew how, id make the arrow only appear when you hover over the keyword

[misty saffron]

there we go

now to wait for a better desk and chair

[wheat plume]

:O Hollow leg reveal

[halcyon moss]

thats not a desk lol

[misty saffron]

well

it sort of is

[halcyon moss]

is the sub your chair?

[misty saffron]

the what

[halcyon moss]

subwoofer?

[wheat plume]

subwoofer

[halcyon moss]

not the sexslave

[misty saffron]

that is.. the pc case

[wheat plume]

I think thats a computer?

yeh lel
