whats wrong with this ?
reef patrol
Oh you know. The bottom of the screen flickers weirdly when I log in. Showing video not in fullscreen will make the screen darken or brighten at random. It all began after 11 retail version. So... here's hoping it isn't hardware xD
wheat plume
🤔
crimson wigeon
Inb4 that brightening and darkening is just one of those garbage dynamic contrast thingies
reef patrol
Naw. It's localized.
If I go to a site like Imgur and stuff plays and I hover over it, the screen starts getting haunted.
reef patrol
Welp... glitches are still there. So... it would appear my monitor might be dying.
ashen spindle
wouldnt a linux bootstick have been a much faster way to test for that?

Not really.
Introducing a hell of a lot of new variables. Best to test with something I know used to work just fine.

um so in some keyboard software it lets me change the light of the keys to a custom color but not the strip at the bottom -_-
so to not make ocd mad, I have 2 options. 1. pick a matching or similar in theme color for the keys. Or 2. turn it off to have a custom color not interfere with the presets
there isn't purple on it

aukey km g-12
this is for the keys
there's a strip on the bottom that cycles between 7 colors i think the manual said. orange/yellow, yellow, red, dark blue, light blue, green, whiteish, and pink. so i guess 8
the other 2 strip (called surround light) modes are spectrum (no names) and gradient slide(?)
i wonder how advanced the rgb is on wooting
ok this is ridiclous. you get more presets in this menu ^ than you do for per key lighting. you also can't set a specific color to a specific key
you can but gl
yep it doesn't save it. what a nice purple color here though
people sure love ticking off people with ocd
not even sure if that is ocd
light blue strip with purple keys looks nice. wish i could have a purple strip with green keys (not really sure it would look nice but can't find out)

Must be an iPhone user... I ran Mortal Kombat X on 1GB and 1.2GHz processor when...
Why would that be I don’t get tbh. Since the A soc line is pretty powerful, and even my 6s plus when it was 5 years old running newest OS could run most games at pretty high details. Or well, every game I tried.
But tbf some games are Google store exclusive. Same goes the other way around just lot less often

id play it on pc but the bg flickers black often. robtop plz fix this
even with the new memory and ssd it still did it
but no 2.2 will come out in 2025 and still have this bug. just like hello games still has the refinery bug that deletes contents during space travel.
anyone remember the android marketplace? (btw ive seen an iphone first and used someones ipod touch to play the moron test demo.

1 hdmi port
im using the momiter for 2nd moniter cause it works
but for some dumb reason hdmi is considered outdated
reef tundra
Wait vga still exists?
VGA is forever 
pale sigil
I was just kidding xD
oak ember
cause the monitor gets number 1 slot while the tv gets number 2
pale sigil
Vga is the scart socket of computers
oak ember
one problem
moniter is 1280x1024 and tv is 1920x1080
games don't freaking see 1280x720 with that aspect ratio for the tv cause it thinks im using the monitor
ashen spindle
so far that all sounds like something you can fix with settings in the display settings menu?
oak ember
it's not that bad. except synthetik 2 has a bug that resets your freaking keybindings/resolution on restart. but it resets your resolution when you go into the settings again as well.
so it's annoying getting the resolution defaulted to a res higher than 720. that pre alpha early access game isn't optimized yet
oak ember
so far that all sounds like something you can fix with settings in the display s...
nah you can't. i looked it up already. Seems like some people use 3 monitors to do a trick to bypass this dumb system. doesn't make sense why "make this my primary monitor" doesn't change the identity number to 1

Well now you know when it says to remove stick you can only remove it then
fair gull
its a seperate stick

fair gull
it just has tons of raid drivers
nothing else

Is there not a way to bake drivers into bios or something
fair gull
na theyd be baked into the install media
empty wren
Ah
empty wren
Well that is understandable
fair gull
eh
empty wren
Not everyone is gonna use that
fair gull
the iso is like 6gb
the 400mb of drivers wouldnt kill it
prob not even
like 200
or 100
empty wren
I mean I guess
fair gull
i mean win10 includes a fuck ton of common drivers aswell
most usb3 controllers, wifi cards, pcie adapters and what not
empty wren
So does macos
empty wren
Yeah but people always complain about oh windows has drivers to install
Is why I mention it
fair gull
well
empty wren
Even if it is so closed drivers are basically non-existent
fair gull
for macos and other *nix systems the drivers are baked into the kernel
they dont rely on some ABI/API like win drivers
empty wren
Does Linux have drivers similar to that?
fair gull
yes
kernel modules
literally interacting with the kernel directly unlike windows drivers that dont necessarily do that
empty wren
Any benefit to windows approach?
empty wren
Besides probably being simple for the user to install themselves and the vast library of them
fair gull
unsure how fatal a kernel module erroring is in linux
empty wren
I guess that makes sense
fair gull
idk if the kernel auto unloads it or it crashes
crimson wigeon
It's monolithic so it probably blows up, or panics, or gives you nice fat oops in the kernel log
empty wren
Yeah I think the Linus Linux video had some of that
fair gull
i only know 1 driver in windows from the top of my head that bluescreens outright
ARCsec.sys
part of a media dvd burning software
starting with 21h1 it just bluescreens if its too old

- clean room costs go up in that area + radiation levels are up in volcano areas and that is a big nono
fickle ore
I'm not talking near volcanos just some zones that have higher geoenergy potential
why would radiation levels increase in active zones?
ashen spindle
I mean if you dont go full risk you get no benefit thats worth mentioning on the bill
more movement of elements and more stuff from deep inside coming closer to the surface and they need to shield things form extremely low radiation already, far far below what is dangerious or so
ashen spindle
yeah but if tesla goes out of business nobody cares aside form idiots putting life savings in doge coin
fickle ore
@ashen spindle yeah but being in an active zone doesn't necessarily mean in the vicinity where radiation levels would be any different than from the background levels
ashen spindle
but at the bare minimum increases the risk of it becoming bigger because it's not a fully stable area
fickle ore
btw why do they need shield? are the machines or the dies vulnerable?

reef patrol
It's drugs smuggled from NK, isn't it? xD
ashen spindle
because would you like to have constant crashes because your cpu is radioactive so it makes your ram unstable?
ashen spindle
if you make chips your plant needs to be shielded from radiation more than for health reasons, so it cant contaminated your wafers or machines, if those nanometer lenses have issues you can throw your machine away and they only make <20 a year
and it's not super spreading to everything it touches but since we're literally taking about 1-atom layers it can be enough to enduce enough change that you might have issue in the long run
granted it's been months since I saw a video about it so I cant accurately remember what points exactly were the big issues
ashen spindle
but yeah as the video I linked explains, water is a thing they can deal with so arizona is a good place ironically

ah you mean you get radioactive particles in the wafer, not the radiation affecting them

They said during a presentation we want minorities ._.
If anything the minorities are basically the largest population

Instead of division think in unity

I do want unity

They just think wow this a great opportunity for me
And probably look past some of the text
I am not discouraging enriching bad neighborhoods where minorities live in any way
But really not great to look at matters in minority or color, race, sex spectrums
empty wren
Poverty or near it
Behavior that could include drugs or gangwars
My high school biology teacher who is doing a PhD got into a fight once in the ghetto where she lived and it got pretty serious
She is an outstanding person, she takes care of a adopted child who is not mentally or physically sound along with studying and teaching the class.
reef tundra
Poverty will drive anyone to do criminal/immoral/whatever actions
Concentrating the poverty is how you get crime
a lot of it
empty wren
Well the thing is, there is an idea of choice
Some behavior happens for stupid reasons, I get someone stealing food for being hungry
reef tundra
Like even the police will know to avoid ghettos
empty wren
Yeah she said they did not go there I think to do anything
reef tundra
The only police going in is in full ballistics suit with a warrant
empty wren
Concentrating the poverty is how you get crime
These kinds of areas could use enrichment for example
reef tundra
Trailer camps are notorious for this
empty wren
As seemingly the youth seems to lack being able to be constructive and instead are forced in a dangerous lifestyle out of peer pressure

The only police going in is in full ballistics suit with a warrant
That is just another bad aspect of it

Mixed housing solves a lot of issues
empty wren
To have to visit such an area in that kind of wear makes it seem like it is a norm and has a place to exist.
empty wren
Mixed housing solves a lot of issues
I have a disagreement there
Two times neighbors different ones in two houses
Were commiting suspicious behavior
The neighborhood I live in is not bad by any means
People ride on bikes and walk
Maybe I do not know the underground behavior that takes place but the neighborhood is filled with various kinds of people.
Most people are inside or somewhere else ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I have no idea what most people do these days, I just take walks as well and sometimes go experiment outside
empty wren
Mixed housing solves a lot of issues
There was also a housing plan listing near a rich neighborhood to bring in low income people nearby which I think is a terrible idea
Due to the nature in the construction of society at least for the united states
I am certain there are good people who live in bad neighborhoods too
reef tundra
Mixed housing as in high income, low income, high density, low density to avoid concentration of poverty to let it manifest how it typically would.
Namely: gangs forming, contesting the rule of the law, rule by violence, extortion and other unlawful behaviour.
empty wren
I mean I guess
reef tundra
It also brings incentive for the police to maintain the rule of law
empty wren
Still there should be concern though
For a certain these people will pose a threat to the commonwealth of others
Becomes more difficult if you got a neighborhood where everybody knows everyone
But these days people are inside or do not go out hiding in their home
I do see your point of sufficient believers in one view have a power to alter the view that can be disparing
reef tundra
You will always need enforcement and intelligence 🤷
Same with anti-corruption measures
reef tundra
There is a plan to use its rules to make it void

Sure

Vote by popularity but only if they have a majority of the votes
reef tundra
before then, however the specific state wants to
empty wren
I know they say your vote counts
Yes it does in a way
But also not really
At least for the presidency
reef tundra
Electoral collage is way past its time, it had its use a century ago
empty wren
Well yes
I just meant has corruption reached it
Since it's purpose was to remain uncorrupt
empty wren
I do think the prior president was the right choice over Clinton
I just wonder how they came to that decision
Is all
Clearly after what happened he lost the race in everyone ones eyes
Anyways probably enough about politics
Unless you want to add any more words
reef tundra
With modern communication capabilities you could probably already implement direct democracies
reef tundra
Representatieve Republic
empty wren
There are representativee yes
reef tundra
You vote who represents your interrests, or atleast gets the pleasure to deal with it
empty wren
Well you at least get to vote who can run if they can afford to
Now that I think about that

Essentially, it is either for consolidating the voter base or being called out for your bluff.

Huge british warships being beaten by some icelandic patrol boats
That sounds epic

I like the fact the english lost each engagement against handful of patrolboats
empty wren
The British were probably begging for one
Or Iceland want to give them another chance
reef tundra
If you show up with 22 warships..
empty wren
Are patrol boats armed
reef tundra
Machineguns
reef tundra
Still no match against a frigate
empty wren
Iceland would like to know your location
reef tundra
Which has naval cannons to shred them, but that would be an act of war.. ignoring the naval intrusion
reef tundra
The ships went to ramming eachother
reef tundra
and let attrition take effect
Its a lot cheaper to repair a patrol boat than a hull breach in a frigate
empty wren
I still find it strange
Large ships get damaged severely
Why small ones not so much
reef tundra
And for a while
empty wren
And this was all from ramming
reef tundra
Having your ships at the shipyard being repaired stops them being useful in the 'war'
empty wren
Is British ship wood plywood or something

Yeah but physics

Believe Pearl harbour was meant to scare the US from entering the war
Or at least keep them from the Pacific theatre
How poorly that turned out
And they brought two bombs
Really big ones
Admiral Hara Tadaichi summed up the Japanese result by saying, "We won a great tactical victory at Pearl Harbor and thereby lost the war."
Fighting the battle was the mistake
I doubt the US wouldn't have retaliated even if pearl harbour attack managed to sink everything
oak ember
@fickle ore your profile looks like benito from blinx 2. i guess it's a culture thing in japan

Japanese empire was already stretched thin due to their recent warfare and the industrial ability was pretty much nil. The US had a fully intact industrial output. With a lot of allies to supplement what was lacking
Hard to make much when lacking steel, oil, and many other major natural resources

oak ember
just give it a shot
oak ember
"The reasoning behind these behaviors remains a mystery, though some believe they are signs of obsessive-compulsive disorder." no that is 100% OCD
reef tundra
Also, the change of magnetic fields is what induces the currents to form
oak ember
maybe there's some autism mixed in with the pigeons. but idk if any of this is true though. just cause it says it is, doesn't mean it is.
are you not seeing we can generate wireless energy without bluetooth?
reef tundra
Passive RFID exists
oak ember
but nobody pursues this why? oh right. like he said. it doesn't make money

We can have a transceiver receive a signal and use the power to respond with

what does this have to do with "free energy"?
reef tundra
There is no free energy. Energy cannot be created nor destroyed. only changed in form
With entropy taking its tax
oak ember
who said that?
reef tundra
Usually in heat
fickle ore
ofcourse there is free energy

With entropy taking its tax
then heat energy is free

Electric heater is 100% efficient 😎
Computers are... 0% efficient?
old marlin
if you use a computer as an electric heater it might be more than 100% efficient though
reef tundra
Win by technicalities
and ignoring data
old marlin
cause not only do you get heat
but also computational power
so you get more heat per currency
reef tundra
How much is the computational power worth though?
reef tundra
Its worth something clearly
old marlin
be it crypto
or something actually useful
fah might not pay you directly
but might still be worth for you personally in the end
or idk
reef tundra
Someone is willing to pay for someone to compute the thing
old marlin
long ass renders
I mean even if it is just for a lugh
it is not worth 0
you got a personal benefit from it
so more efficient than a heater

i looked up who it was. but idk how i'd find out if he's linked to the conspiracy. never really did that kind of research. screw him if he was lying though

no

What are you trying to say
oak ember
the context of the arguing

That is already way out of context
oak ember
how?
"energy cannot be created nor destroyed..."
leads to me looking up the person who said that since you didn't say who said it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_von_Mayer
So since i didn't do the kinds of research other people did i have no experience in researching history of businesses and ancestry.
you asked what conspiracy. i gave the answer. it includes many. but if you want to really know what people call it... "flat earth" that's why i didn't say that. cause you'll jump ship and say "nope". and some of you might call yourself scientists. what a joke

im bad at grammar so here's what i think are the first 2 paragraphs
Planet Earth... At some point during our short lives, all of us turn inwards and contemplate the nature of the Earth we inhabit. From childhood we are taught about the Earth, the sun, the moon, and space. We learn about our solar system and the planets within it. We learn about the Milky Way and the infinite, vastness, of space. And we accept these teachings as facts and go about our busy daily lives.
One day, I decided I wanted to know more about our world and universe. I wanted to know everything. So I started digging. But straight away, I started to bump into things that made me stop and think. "Hmm?" Here are a few of those things...
i can't defend cause im autistic
so if someone can explain something better than i can, if they already did the research. why should I? also linking something from scientists is no different than linking something from flat earthers that perform real science
sums up the documentry
it does get very theoretical near the end though
so that's not entierly true
use a speaker
is it that hard?
you convinced me to transcribe it
reef tundra
i can't defend cause im autistic

you just won't give it a solid chance
