Oh dogekek

#

I am dumb

#

Did you return it at the end? dogekek

pale sigil
#

Yes

#

Glad I did

ashen spindle
#

hmm looks suspicious

crisp granite
#

🤯

ashen spindle
#

better wait on 3rd party results

shadow minnow
#

As in the graph

astral haven
#

Hey that's a first accurate graphic from Nvidia
Progress is progress

reef tundra
#

But is it? mm

#

Could be they confused GiB and GB

wheat plume
#

I agree

pale sigil
wheat plume
#

Yep yep

pallid totem
reef tundra

empty wren
#

Injection moulding outdated >:)

#

Well gonna suck to remove this later

reef tundra
#

First layer seems to be a little high, if I see it correctly. Good first layer should 'squish' the lines together a little.

#

You also have specific printsurfaces that release the printjob on cooldown

empty wren
#

Oh they are pretty close

fair gull
#

i cant get it to print flat at all

empty wren
#

Uh

#

Depends on the print

#

I have it on 25mm/s* 0.82

reef tundra
#

If I set my settings correctly the first layer will be a continues plastic sheet. No gaps in-between them

empty wren
#

Usually I print at 25mm/s for detailed part

empty wren
#

You meant the gap between walls and inside

astral haven
old marlin
#

Ah

#

Ig

reef tundra
#

Like if you tell it to fill an area it wont have any holes between the travellines on the initial layer

empty wren
#

Uh

#

Maybe this why some parts got butchered

reef tundra
#

tip: Petg sticks really well to kapton tape. 😉

empty wren
# fair gull how do u print so flat

I tightened all my springs so the bed is at the lowest and used paper to feel for a light but consistent frictional top force to level the bed, also you really should set the z offset paper is needed and - value goes down, besides that I print mostly slow right now

#

Get better orange springs I would say first

empty wren
#

But I wanted to test glue

empty wren
reef tundra
#

I got mixed results with gluesticks, atleast thats how I remember working with that

empty wren
#

Yeah

#

I can see why tape is good though

#

Just not a fan of it being strands

reef tundra
#

You do want to use as wide as possible tape available. The overlap and voids will show up in your prints. The nozzle can also snag and rip the tape as it passes over the tape boundries

empty wren
#

Good thing I did not use tape

#

I am guessing an issue with glue is glops

#

I had find details on this model

#

Which went okay

#

But then some squares went crazy

reef tundra
#

If overapplied it can show up on your prints

empty wren
#

On the bottom

#

Guessing it can shift some layers as well

#

This mostly looks okay anyways

reef tundra
#

Good thing about it would be the water solvable characteristic. (Gluestick)

empty wren
#

Damn it

#

Why did I not think of that

#

Here I struggled using the scraper

reef tundra
#

You can just use running water to remove the glue from the bed

empty wren
#

Sigh

#

Probably will use it to clean it later

#

And try this print again

reef tundra
#

I remember how I would just take the entire bedsurface and use the shower to wash it all off

empty wren
reef tundra
#

Shoot on sight

empty wren
#

Really weird the squares

#

Cause a stretched blob

#

Not the tiny holes

#

Not the other pieces

#

Hell even the jank rectangle looked like a rectanglr

wheat plume
#

Oo...
This is neat
Won't have to fully rely on steam input now

pale sigil
#

i just spent 5 min looking for my mouse

#

after it fell of my dsk lol

empty wren
#

XD

empty wren
#

you mean the tile tracker

timid chasm
#

attach a brick to it

empty wren
#

no no

timid chasm
#

much cheaper than a tile and you'll hear it when it falls off

empty wren
#

attach slave to it

#

since technically it is a slave to the computer mm

#

XD

#

well actually wait

#

what if it is wireless

#

sure

timid chasm
#

speaking of PS2, can you combine 2 usb into 1 ps2 port?

#

cause I've not seen those adapters

empty wren
#

i swear some adapters cost a bunch for a no reason

timid chasm
#

I've seen the port which accepts both but can you split two and use two at one time

#

either or is lame

#

that would free up an extra usb slot on itx motherboards

#

I couldn't even find an adapter to do that

#

I didn't deep dive into it but no avail with a quick search

#

not enough

#

but that's in the past anyway lol

#

gotta start over as you know

empty wren
#

most devices are okay on it besides wooting keyboard

timid chasm
#

I probably would've resorted to that eventually but we'll see what case comes across my lap next and if I need it

empty wren
#

would be cool if wooting could make the keyboard compatible with ps2

#

even faster speeds

#

hmm

#

oh those are old

#

well new old

#

but they are doing cool stuff with em

#

yeah

#

eh interrrupt sounds cool

#

would be interesting so see how polling handles analogmm

#

oh and tachyon mode on >:)

#

lol

timid chasm
#

The division games like to stutter with 1000 hz

empty wren
#

is that so

#

maybe not noticeable at 60-75hz

#

i know gta keeps being ass

ashen spindle
#

pretty sure MC fixed it a while ago

#

but it did have it yea

empty wren
#

car customization in the car meet when you move up or down it doubles it

#

and mouse movement is sticky on agency computer and creates lag

timid chasm
#

I searched forever trying to find the issue to the division and came across that advice and fixed it entirely. So weird because it wasn't even consistent with the stutter

#

it's default for a lot of devices lol

ashen spindle
#

yesn't

#

also depends on things like using forms of syncing to remove tear

#

I think generally it's a good value but not always that clear

empty wren
#

a goof rule of thumb is to set perpherial reshr rate to monitor resfrsh rate mm

ashen spindle
#

the mouse guide is a bit older and mostly was about the part where it compares frequencies

#

the forum post is never

empty wren
#

XDDDDDDDDD

reef tundra
#

nyquist frequency is the minimum frequency needed for sampling signals without aliasing.

empty wren
#

Yes

reef tundra
#

Dont forget to use two seperate host controllers

#

Or you would be sharing the same bus

#

with yourself

ashen spindle
#

for one part, because your updates dont exactly line up with your fps

#

no simper, so if you have same rate as fps, you can get up to half of that as delay, if you get an update at 0.5 time of the new frame, you have that + the frametime as delay

#

it's less of an issue the higher the update rate is since then even at it's worst it will be closer to when it registers the input

reef tundra
#

The best reason would be to get more consistent behaviour/latency. The higher the frequency the closer to discrete can model the continues

empty wren
#

mmm yes let us use polling for everything

#

those usb sticks we had

reef tundra
#

Interrupts are very punishing if you are using a multi-core/threaded system

empty wren
#

polling sticks now

reef tundra
#

Like insanely harsh

empty wren
#

in what way

reef tundra
#

It forces all the threads/cores to stop immidiately and handle that interrupt

ashen spindle
#

that and makes it easier to have less different connections and use the same protocol/same controller on chips etc.

empty wren
#

e.e

#

if we lived a different world could have had a core for mouse and another for keyboards

#

maybe software could just say this core is for this

#

let it be its own system

#

shruggie

#

could be fine

#

1999999999999999999999999999999 threads

ashen spindle
#

yeah lets not waste even more expensive chip space for something a generic protocol with more use can do

reef tundra
#

polling would also make the entire design more idiotproof. No misbehaving device that can just keep interrupting the entiresystem.. and just keep it there

ashen spindle
#

security is quite important or else we'd still run

#

what's it called

#

firewire?

empty wren
#

USB KILLLERRRRRRRRRRRRR

ashen spindle
#

sure but that's because there is never a 100% security

empty wren
#

no no

reef tundra
#

USB is one of the most suitable generic protocol available.

empty wren
#

people need to plug thjeri pohone in omnious charge at hack conmm

ashen spindle
#

sure but one thing having flaws doesn't mean the other things flaws become less relevant

#

so you want dedicated things for everything, separate things for audio, for data transfers etc.?

reef tundra
#

I dont recall a bug existing on the 🧮

#

so we should be using that again

ashen spindle
#

so instead of an usb issue you get 10 different ones

#

one port having an issue would mean you now need a converter or can no longer use audio on your board

#

if you want more things you need a new board bc your first purchase didn't have as many of port x that you needed etc.

#

yeah but for most parts you can now use usb and have multiple ports and can switch stuff around

reef tundra
#

Anycase, USB is great as an generic all-purpose protocol. Should work in most situations you can expose it to

ashen spindle
#

and then we have the point of different hardware standards, would require more space on cpus and cost more etc.

#

it's basically doing it the linux way on hardware for no reason

#

thats why I'm mentioning it

#

usb is like the systemd of hardware to you

reef tundra
ashen spindle
#

yeah, my vr stuff uses usb and if those things would be all its own connectors I'd most likely need a different board

#

I wouldn't gain any benefit from it all being separate and only gain the knowledge of being more limited and if something is broken I'd need different things instead of just use an spare usb cable

#

who knows if smth like a usb kvm would work etc.

reef tundra
#

Modulairity is nice

ashen spindle
#

for me it's vr, for another person it might be a big audio upgrade, for someone else it might be using a kinect or smth funny

#

or lets keep it simpler, a xbox controller

#

but aside from the principle, what benefit would you get?

#

leaving the high end problems of not yet perfect polling for 8khz mice aside

#

but what would be the benefit

#

how so

reef tundra
#

If you have hardware access, its game over for security

ashen spindle
#

with people wanting macros, rgb, usb passthrough etc. you'd still need quickly need more than pure input signals

#

so instead of usb a different attack vector would be used

#

but instead of 1 thing needing a patch you now have 10

#

or however many you'd end up with

empty wren
ashen spindle
#

because it's a number bigger than 1

empty wren
#

Yeah why not 8.1

ashen spindle
#

also one other thing you are forgetting is smartphones/laptops

#

you have a much more limited port option there

empty wren
#

It does work

#

Ptp

ashen spindle
#

imagine a phone needing like 5 ports because usb isn't a thing dogekek

empty wren
#

Yes please give us floppy disk slot on phone please and thank you

ashen spindle
#

I much prefer having a dongle over literally not having any other option that using the exact ports my laptop/phone comes with

empty wren
#

So the audio jack going away does not bother you?

ashen spindle
#

if you have a thin laptop with no more space than like 2 usb ports would you rather have usb or 2 ports that you cant use for what you want

#

but that's not related to what the connector can do

empty wren
#

Got to be careful with that

ashen spindle
#

so you are forcing people to carry not just the laptop but also components around

empty wren
reef tundra
#

peperee REEE
Everything DB-9 or bust
Every protocol, every pin, every situation, poorly documented

empty wren
reef tundra
#

DB-9 is only the specification for the physical connector after all.

empty wren
#

The thing that sucks the most is

#

Hubs not ones based on thunderbolt probably need external power

#

Still counts

reef tundra
#

Just connect directly to the PCIe bus and you would be free from having to deal with usb

#

Ever had to develop PCIe hardware? Its.. fun

#

Software simulator go brrrrrrr

#

It only takes a few hours to get like nanosecond of action

#

Its only your CPU or chipset that you are risking anyway 🤷

shadow minnow
#

Good thing is that at least with laptops you can now go the other way around and have DP, usb hub and laptop power

#

Many do nowadays

#

Just not the other way around

reef tundra
#

If you cant use it as a farming implement why even bother. Ak-47? more like ak-notagoodfarmingimplemt amirite 🧐 ☝️

astral haven
#

Ok?
So you have to pay royalties for thunderbolt
You have to pay royalties for hdmi too

reef tundra
#

That is why we use DP

#

mm money

astral haven
#

It works perfectly

#

The only feature you lose from using it without motherboard support is hotswap pcie devices

#

Gigabyte released the thunderbolt aic card then

#

Was thunderbolt 2 iirc?
Or was it 1

#

Was thunderbolt 2

#

Yea because noone cared

reef tundra
#

Hotswap pcie devices would be only interresting for the server sector

astral haven
#

The use for thunderbolt was the apple cinema displays which werent following spec and audio interfaces

astral haven
#

And low latency audio interfaces

#

Yup

#

Get an SSD if you spend so much time rebooting

#

I have ~1200 programs installed on my PC lol

#

Yea I was gonna say

#

#

I paid for them

shadow minnow
#

That’s even worse dogekek

astral haven
#

So I can have them if I want

#

Wait is $ £ conversion that huge difference

astral haven
#

its alot

#

but a vr headset is a vr headset

#

yup

#

i make alot of bad decisions

#

hey
$12 a month for 12 games a month

#

over time they build up

#

generally 1 game per that I really wanted, 2 games that I tend to eventually play
the rest I havent played

reef tundra
#

Solution: Add money

astral haven
#

ign bought them

#

but i was grandfathered into their old pricing so idc

#

tho
uh
you folks might be alot more disappointed by what i just bought today

#

ill give you a hint
it cost about the same as all that

reef tundra
#

It has a little for everyone 9/10

astral haven
#

no

#

ALOT more disappointed

#

nope it is a computer part
and it is storage

reef tundra
#

A recreational thermonuclear warhead?

astral haven
#

well

#

think harder

#

actually no its not more expensive than tape per unit drive

#

but its alooot lower capacity

#

ssd

#

1 singular ssd

#

ill give you a hint

#

It's replacing this :P

shadow minnow
#

What are you using it for?

astral haven
#

actually nothing

#

i dont even use my personal computer any more thanks to my new job

#

yup

#

ebay special half off about

#

still cost as much as my steam library

#

approx

shadow minnow
reef tundra
#

With tape drive you mean those large archival ones. Because something like cassettes are also utilising tape

astral haven
#

have you ever owned the fastest ssd?

#

nah

#

this is cheaper per iop

#

by a long shot

shadow minnow
astral haven
#

windows

#

also I process gigantic panoramas

shadow minnow
#

That makes more sense

astral haven
#

and ice shits the bed if you use hdds to cache

shadow minnow
#

Even if still have to wonder if just using 4.0 ssd wouldn’t be as fast for panoramas

astral haven
#

its also rather glitchy in the memory reporting

#

lemme find the pic

#

shoot cant find the screenshot

#

anyways it needs about 1tb of cache

#

software

#

ICE

#

it was a free tech demo from microsoft that just happens to be the last remaining panorama software that can handle over 100 images

#

uh
the problem is i dont have an autopanorama head

#

so it has to align everything

#

you just wait 3 minutes for it to load

#

most image software can actually handle it tbh

#

i just got a lens that is double the focal length of the one i used to make this pano

#

4x as many images

#

nyways ssd install time

#

and im gonna regret my life again because x570 is broken

#

nope

#

far as i know theres zero software for linux

#

there is one python combiner program that is universal but its for scientific panoramas so the image files are useless

#

everything else is mac or windows

#

i really want a copy of autopano giga

#

but its gone 😦

#

yea probably

#

whats super scuffed is that the input images are only like 200gb

#

yet it needs over a tb to process it

#

well theres alot of overlap between images

#

normal overlap is supposed to be like 10%
but I eyeball it, so it ends up with like 70% overlap

#

nways
time to install a very spensive ssd

#

i could
but im very lazy

#

the p5800x will always be the fastest pcie 4 ssd

#

thanks to pcie 4 being canned in 2 years

#

i also have some even faster optane on the way 😉

#

Me too

reef tundra
#

Atleast now he is one very fast ssd richer. 😎

astral haven
#

Hey now I can go back to saying the most expensive component in my PC is the storage

#

When I removed the 3 75w ssds that were causing my room to turn into a sauna that honor dropped back to my video card

pepecry not recognized by all previous versions of Windows. Truly a tragedy.

#

Poor Cobol user

#

Hmm says disk 3

#

What happened to 2 and 1

reef tundra
#

Windows begins at C://

astral haven
#

windows starts at 0 for counting

empty wren
#

Lol

#

Get wrecked panda

reef tundra
#

A and B are reserved for floppy drives I remembered

astral haven
#

yep but the counting is separate

empty wren
#

Oh you got disks

astral haven
#

i have many disks

empty wren
#

Bruh

astral haven
#

what I really love that the lowest capacity ssds i have are the tlc ones and the larger ones are mlc

reef tundra
#

I assume mlc is better then?

astral haven
#

Yep

#

Qlc is yikes
Tlc is normal
Mlc is better
And SLC is industrial only at this point because mlc is so good

#

Also it has been a while since I installed ssd drivers
But uh
500mb/s ain't it

#

ooh it might actually be a legit drive

reef tundra
#

thonk Best way to know.. run and see what it does

astral haven
#

it errors
great

#

I blame amd

reef tundra
#

Windows drivers experience 9/10

astral haven
#

AMD drivers

#

this aint a windows problem ill tell you that much

#

In fact
I used to have more in theory faster optane
I had 3 gen 1 drives in raid 0

#

But the problem was it was amd raid

#

Which isn't exactly functional 90% of the time

astral haven
#

CPUs are great

#

The problem is the chipsets

#

Really should have left that to asus

reef tundra
#

Not connected straight into the PCIe lanes of the CPU?

astral haven
#

Remember the iodie issue?

#

The iodie chip is identical to x570

#

And that's not a good thing

crisp granite
#

figured it would be a not good thing

#

or at least a meh thing

astral haven
#

It's stonks for amd

crisp granite
#

well duh, they aren't making new parts, just more of older parts

astral haven
#

The 5950x is estimated to cost around $150 to produce

crisp granite
#

cool

#

(this is where you tell me the iodie is literally pennies of that or some shit)

reef tundra
#

Aint ringing any bells what the iodie issue referring to.

crisp granite
#

wait...oh...USB issues on AM4 boards are tied to CPUs and not Mobos?

astral haven
#

Ofc not

#

It's just that if you have promontory boards (not x570) you are usually free of issues

#

It's something to do with the chip not working well with itself

empty wren
#

well with itself

astral haven
#

And they also told server folks that the issue wasn't gonna be fixed

crisp granite
#

sounds like me ngl

empty wren
#

Oof

crisp granite
#

O_o

#

w0t

astral haven
empty wren
#

Oh

crisp granite
#

so if it's a known issue

#

nvm

#

loaded question

astral haven
#

Why don't they fix it you ask?

crisp granite
#

the answer is obviously...money mm

astral haven
#

They told the server folks they can't

#

So it's not money

crisp granite
#

that's even worse

#

although...they could fix it by outright replacing part that isn't playing nice, no?

astral haven
#

It'll be fixed in Genoa at least

#

Oh no
It's just gonna be a problem for these CPUs period

#

Only "fix" is to raise the voltage which makes the problem much more intermittent

crisp granite
#

ah yes

#

and that has it's own set of issues

astral haven
#

Genoa is releasing late 2022 btw

crisp granite
#

so end result...known issue, live with it, buy genoa or live like the filthy poor you are

#

good to know

astral haven
#

Not that you can buy genoa

#

Because it's not releasing for at least 6 months

empty wren
#

...

crisp granite
#

well duh...you'd buy it when it's out

#

I thought that was heavily implied...or just common sense

astral haven
#

What if you idk
Need a computer now?

shadow minnow
#

Then you don’t dogekek

empty wren
crisp granite
reef tundra
#

Is it related to the USB issues on some amd cpus. Or something?

crisp granite
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

astral haven
#

The iodie issue caused the USB issues

crisp granite
#

that would mean a cheap ass A series mobo and Athlon or something

#

just to get you up and running

astral haven
#

Ah yes let's build a datacenter of athlons

crisp granite
#

great idea

#

fast track to loss of contract and termination

astral haven
#

Athlons datacenter like it's 1999

crisp granite
astral haven
#

I really appreciate how my computer is no longer booting

shadow minnow

True

crisp granite

have you tried unpogging and repogging it?

#

Yep

#

Actually I could now tbh if I didnt want to play games

#

Not like I have any time to play games anyways

crisp granite
#

well

#

Metro Exodus got a native linux release

#

could be a fun game to chip away an hour or so at a time

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

astral haven
#

Isn't it worse than running it through proton?

crisp granite
#

not that I'm aware of

astral haven
#

Would be news to me
So far proton has been destroying native releases performance and stutter wise

reef tundra
#

Proton works pretty well for me, Just no raytracing(nvidia specific), dlss, or online with anti-cheat enabled

astral haven
#

Raytracing is Microsoft specific not nvidia

crisp granite
#

AMD does it too now...

#

I think

astral haven
#

Ye

crisp granite
#

haven't seen any AMD RT titles beyond FC6, which I will pirate at some point

#

just like RTX in 2018

#

a gamechanger (because it will kill your framerate) in the 5 games that support it

astral haven
#

The first cards to run dxr raytracing were amd lol

reef tundra
#

Vulkan Raytracing will work.

astral haven
#

Vkrt is slow

#

And is even more slow when fallback is enabled

#

Uh uo

I heard a very suspicious popping sound

crisp granite
# astral haven Isn't it worse than running it through proton?

Hello everyone,
Welcome to my channel.
In today's video, I am comparing Metro Exodus on Linux and Windows. Metro Exodus has a native Linux version, so I am testing the Native, Proton and Windows versions at 1440p high settings. I am using DXVK and DX12 in proton and windows, because
perform the best, while the native uses Vulkan.

#

Ray tracing right now is a feature that works on consoles fairly

astral haven
#

Yes and every PC more powerful than a console

crisp granite
#

give it a few years, and yeah

#

probably

empty wren
#

I just mean it does not seem to ruin the console experience

#

Even if it is more limited than the options on a computer that runs windows

astral haven
#

I've had great experiences running raytracing 🤷

I am honestly surprised a dlss like feature is uncommon

astral haven
#

Dlss was 3 years beyond bleeding edge (academic research) upscaling when it was released

#

And it still is

#

Checkerboard rendering looks awful close up

#

Sometimes

#

Sometimes it looks great

shadow minnow
#

My ehdd both in windows and macOS shows up in device manager and even seagate toolkit but toolkit says unreadable volume and can’t access it overall

astral haven
#

Fantastic for buildings

empty wren
#

Like you could say high refresh rate and everything would scale down to maintain it if necessary

#

Or scale up if it is fine

astral haven
#

That does often exist on PC now

#

It just doesn't work amazingly

reef tundra
#

Raytracing is something i barely notice during normal gameplay tbh. I do notice the fps being halved when enabled. Still, it do be looking nice when you look for it.

astral haven
#

PCs run aloooot faster than consoles usually

#

Lighting was said to already be great in cyberpunk on windows stock as well

astral haven
#

Yea the lighting was good

#

But it was solidly 2017 cryengine tier

#

this is awfully sad

timid chasm
#

if DL2 is as much as a letdown as CP2077 I'll riot

astral haven
#

I was pleasantly surprised by cyberpunk

#

From the hype I thought it was going to burn

#

But I really enjoyed it

timid chasm
#

I felt like cyberpunk did nothing but burn

astral haven
#

#

They could still totally save CP but I imagine they won't cause investors and shit

astral haven
#

Well they are still working on it

#

Witcher 3 was pretty much the same as this

Tho it outright had no issues on pc

#

Development hasn't given up yet with 1.5 being announced atleast 🤷

timid chasm
#

nah even with a 3090 it ran way worse than it had any right to

astral haven
#

yea this is relatively impressive seq q1

astral haven
timid chasm
#

as another 3090 owner it ran like ass per my standards

#

though I'm picky as fuck apparently

astral haven
#

🤷 per unit image quality the only game that ran better that ive played is hunt showdown

#

and maybe half life alyx

#

but thats cheating

#

hmm
not a good sign

reef tundra
#

3090 was a 3080 but with more vram right?

timid chasm
#

basically, yes

#

very hot vram, I don't know if the 3080 got as hot

#

but it was mainly the vram on the back reaching those temps afaik

astral haven
#

3090 has alot more cores

#

8k vs 10k

timid chasm
#

performance wise in games it's basically the same

astral haven
#

at lower resolutions like 1440p and 4k

timid chasm
#

sure maybe it does more work at 8k lol

#

which is like sub-45 fps

astral haven
#

dlss is our savior

young pecan
#

Always remember repadded 3090Ti will likely drop 35 to 40 degrees off 3090. WeSmart

shadow minnow
#

Hmm so apparently windows 11 file manager is still absolutely awful

young pecan
#

That double density NAND putting in work.

timid chasm
#

new dlss is nice, sure but it's still a noticeable difference in most games

astral haven
#

balanced for 1440p, performance for 4k, quality for 1080p

#

thats about the limit that is visible

#

if you really are unhappy you can drop it 1 step

timid chasm
#

yeah but why bother with a 3090

#

just drop the other settings

astral haven
#

what im most sad about is that it isnt async

#

in the future this stuff should be part of the clockgen on the video out so that it doesnt affect performance

young pecan
#

Ngl I’m just happy with more VRAM on all cards.

reef tundra
#

dogekek holy shit thats a lot of vram. How the fuck are you even able to use that much.

#

24gb?

young pecan
#

Yeee.

astral haven
#

vram gud

young pecan
#

As for how you use it? MS flight sim.

#

That can chew 30 gig.

reef tundra
#

I run out of performance before i even reach anywhere near my 6gb vram budget, dogekek

young pecan
#

Just get a better PC, 17head. mm

reef tundra
#

Nice, that solved the issue 👍

New issue: money mm

timid chasm
#

You got a body dontcha?

#

sell it.

shadow minnow
#

You mean the one in the basement?

#

Been trying to get rid of it for a while, where do you recommend selling?

timid chasm
#

PM me the specs and we'll see if I'm interested

Always hungry.

omegalul why tf are people trying to scalp the 5950x in germany

#

Cheapest on kleinanzeigen is 550

#

From then all are 600 and up

#

But with adds from retailers inbetween for 530 and less

#

Which have stock

young pecan
#

128GB/s PCI-E SSDs.

#

Can’t wait for Windows to freak out when somebody actually tries RAIDing up to that kind of speed.

#

Technically possible because threadripper.

#

Pretty sure there’s also no Linux disto that exists that can do that kind of speed.

old marlin
#

still stupid fast

#

ig future of networking is UBS 6 OMEGALUL

young pecan
#

Iirc Linux kernel freaks out if you attempt pushing past 30GB/s.

old marlin
#

fuck QSFP

old marlin
#

that is 32GB/s

#

ig we will see a fix

young pecan
#

All I want is to download Warzone from a cached server in .8 seconds. mm

old marlin
#

lol

#

yea uhhh

#

networking will get to it's limit

#

the more common stuff in datacenters only does up to 100Gbps

young pecan
#

Technically you can do 100Gb by 8, no?

old marlin
#

some 400Gbps afaik

young pecan
#

With enough add on cards.

old marlin
#

yea you would need multiple links

#

but would be giga expensive

young pecan
#

Pretty sure much more after that the CPU starts having a panic.

old marlin
#

also you would need multiple just to fully saturate the bandwidth of a single drive

young pecan
#

Hmmmm.

#

Say if we used Epyc, right? 128 cores.

#

128 lanes.

old marlin
#

meanwhile my laptop SSD completely bottlenecks a gigabit connection PepEsAd

young pecan
#

What board even lets you split NVMe that much and actually have enough 400Gb/s cards to saturate like that?

old marlin
#

yea by then you would have much bigger ones even

#

also if your CPU supports that bandwidth on a single 4x link

young pecan
#

I’m thinking some crazy tier dual CPU nonsense boards with SUPER custom layouts might be able to.

old marlin
#

you have that bandwidth on the other 124 links

young pecan
#

It's the QSFP-DD transceivers that can do 400gb/s, aye?

#

The super crazy overkill ones.

i just ordered 23 sff caddies now for my dl g8

#

and a 25sff front part

#

still need to find a 25sff compatible top cover

shadow minnow
#

Hmm so my ehdd that is sometimes visible on macOS and windows and sometimes not, has decided to today not show up on macOS, but show up in windows 11 in parallels… dogekek

cursive summit
#

dl g8?

old marlin
#

dl380 g8

#

is a server

fair gull
#

well dl is a line of hp proliant servers

#

g8 is the generation

#

dl380 would be the subseries of models of the dl lines

#

usually having an e and p model

fair gull
#

the best thing i read so far was a guy asking why his caddies have the release button lighting up ever since he made all his disks 1 big raid 0

#

made me giggle ngl

old marlin
fair gull
#

ah was new disks

#

but its funny none the less

old marlin
#

how do I succesfully manage to misplace my office 2013 pro iso when I need it

#

ah

#

because it isn't an iso

halcyon moss
#

2013 is not supported anymore :p

old marlin
#

I would say as if that matters really

#

but the 2022 bug is actually kinda shit

#

yea uhhh, guess I will try to push for office 2019 keys

#

since 2016 is also getting old af by now

fair gull
#

what 2022 bug

old marlin
#

search is broken in 2013

#

can't find anything of 2022

#

since they do some shit timestamp conversion

#

and 2022 causes a buffer overflow

#

technically in some parts of outlook we are in the 13th month of 2021

#

also got some stonks back from a keeb

#

ig I will buy monitors or something

fair gull

old marlin
#

who tf thought the 3080 12GB is a good idea

reef patrol
#

nVidia.

#

An excuse to change the 3080 MSRP further cause it's an upgrade

shadow minnow
#

It would be a good idea imo
If the price would stay the same dogekek

young pecan
#

It would literally cost less to buy double density NAND from China and find a 3rd party repairman that can do a swap on an original 3080.

#

Parts, shipping, and labor would cost less than the privilege of buying an LHR card.

wheat plume
#

I cant pause updates either :/

young pecan
#

Like I assume it isn't autoinstalling Win11, no?

wheat plume
#

I pause all updates on 10

#

cause it could break dual boot

young pecan
#

Ah.

wheat plume
#

fml

ashen spindle
#

so disable it

#

group policies

wheat plume
#

how do?

#

its already installing 34%

#

.-. if this breaks shit imma cry

astral haven
#

First dual boot usually doesn't break from minor updates
But yea when it's already installing it's too late

wheat plume
#

fucking damn it

ashen spindle
#

you can just delete the update files..

wheat plume
#

o?

ashen spindle
#

though at your own risk

#

and just disable updates if you dont want them via group policy

astral haven
#

Not a good idea after installing starts

ashen spindle
#

maybe idk

#

hence at your own risk

#

I just dont understand why updates are not disabled if this is at least the like 4th time you say it breaks your dual boot

#

why not disable it after the first time it happens

wheat plume
#

They were but I wasnt on my computer for most of December so the pause period ran out

ashen spindle
#

I said disable not pause

astral haven
#

Pause isn't disable

wheat plume
#

oh

#

idk how to

astral haven
ashen spindle
#

feel like a broken record saying group policy over and over again

though I guess that link seems to be registry change which also should work

O-rings are gross

horrible impact to keyfeel

may as well have membrane board

old marlin
#

o-rings don't even necessarily solve it

#

do you have a deskpad?

crisp granite
#

for linears where most of the noise is bottom out...

#

a deskmat would help

old marlin
#

deskpad might solve it better

crisp granite
#

or you could get a matias tactile pro mm

ashen spindle
#

just put the keyboard ontop of the wrist rest

crisp granite
#

those are quiet keyboards

source: trust me

wheat plume

I have a desk mat, but the mat is too large for my current desk...

so , I use my mouse pad for just my mouse

old marlin

rip

#

get keeb mat

wheat plume
#

perhaps i should

crisp granite
wheat plume
#

are they just called keyboard mats?

crisp granite

and if your housemates complain after the fact....

maybe they're the issue

dispose of them

but its a fuck ton less loud than mine

what is the size problems at your current desk?

how wide is that

my second screen is hanging off the edge

no like in units

no idea

use american measurements and I will have your head

can you measure MONKERS

mousepads between 60 and 70cm width

ah wait

reef tundra

600 and 700 mm for those playing along at home

old marlin
#

wrong direction

this is the right one

nothign especially good on the list

but you prob want a fit that is as exact as possible

wheat plume
#

When a Razer product is the cheaper alternative...what world are we in rn???

reef tundra
#

mm cut the excess mousemat

wheat plume
#

this one seems solid

#

bit too long

old marlin
#

they are all trash dafoe

#

but who cares really

wheat plume
#

my current mousepad was 6 euro

#

and before this year, I didnt use a mousepad at all

old marlin
#

price does not make it better

wheat plume
#

:')

#

true

old marlin
#

razer gigantus v2 is an amazing surface for example

#

and the most bought version costs 20€

#

deskmat one is way too large for you though

#

is 940 by 410

wheat plume
#

the only things on the desk are my keyboard and mouse and the mousepad and my Switch dock

And when I eat, my plate of food xd

old marlin
#

I hope you move your mousepad out of the way when you do MONKERS

wheat plume
#

I move my keyboard

old marlin
#

I mean I have a large enough desk to theoretically just move it all up by like 30cm

#

but my keeb is too heavy to move it as one thing KEKW

wheat plume
#

wut?

old marlin
#

like I can't just lift the deskpad

#

and move the keeb with it

reef tundra

Spandex™️

young pecan
#

Thing is they have the single lowest friction coefficient of any mousepad.

wheat plume
#

Why you need arm sleeve to use mousepad?

young pecan
#

With the right feet the mouse has almost nothing in traction.

young pecan
#

If you use a skypad with the good mouse feet and a DeltaHub Carpio with arm sleeve then your entire mouse arm has almost nothing in friction.

old marlin
#

I would not receommend getting glass pads

#

not necessarily bad

#

but just not for everyone

young pecan
#

^ Absolutely this.

#

They're for fps gaming, not practical use.

old marlin
#

bare skin sticks to the glass

old marlin
young pecan
#

It's also kinda painful, I'd know. LUL

old marlin
#

not australian

#

so can't relate

fickle ore
#

glass for fps gamin wut? it's for 2d gaming not 3d

young pecan
#

I've found the low friction combo to be really good for fps gaming when you have custom acceleration as well.

#

Just super high precision.

old marlin
#

low friction not necessarily good

#

but not deep into mousepads myself peepoShrug

young pecan
#

Hence deltahub carpio.

old marlin
#

no even then

#

just it being low friction does not make it better

#

static vs dynamic friction balance WAY more important

fickle ore
#

I'mma leave friction talk to secret chat

old marlin
#

I won't even try to take part in that

fickle ore
#

Why not, you're valuable 🙂

old marlin
#

no mousepad talk specifically

#

completely out of the loop there

reef tundra
#

dogekek Friction is great.

fickle ore
#

ya friction is good

#

high friction and low mass mouse is best imo

I just learned about Updog.... it seems so useful!!

reef tundra
ashen spindle

that is not old enough yet for people to fall for it again

wheat plume

it makes a local server to host files that are in the folder you run updog from

#

so you can access those folders over your local network :D

fair gull
#

so

#

why not use smb

#

or

#

nfs

wheat plume

this is a nice web interface

fair gull

programs can access smb and nfs shares tho

Updog lol

wheat plume
#

:')

fickle ore
young pecan
#

I'm a little weird like that.

empty wren
#

Low static or low dynamic

#

Actually probably should ask material of mouse feet as well

young pecan
#

Low friction in general. I find the less friction there exists between the mouse and pad the better.

#

Currently nylon but that's due for an upgrade.

empty wren
#

Nylon mouse skates?

young pecan
#

I think nylon, I'm pretty tired. Lemme check.

fickle ore
empty wren
#

I would think ptfe but alrright

young pecan
#

No you're right, PTFE.

#

Idk where I got nylon from.

empty wren
#

I would not be surprised if someone did, I saw someone using copper ones

fickle ore
#

Artisan has nylon 66 and UHMWPE feet

empty wren
#

Is that not the most expensive polymer for friction

#

The second term

fickle ore
#

probably not

young pecan
#

Idk, but hyper low friction has always felt nice to me.

fickle ore
#

PEEK might be close

young pecan
#

Originally it was actually a huge issue for accuracy and I couldn't hit fuckin' anything, but mouse acceleration mostly fixed that.

#

Stupid custom curve I tinkered with for weeks.

reef tundra
#

mm Coat everything in a nice bath of lubricating oil. Like a turbocharger has to does.

young pecan
#

Just have neutron degenerate matter mousepad, idiot.

#

Infinitely frictionless if it's less than an atom in either direction on the Y axis. Pepega

empty wren
reef tundra
empty wren
#

Also peek has piss ass friction unl as what I read is wrong

#

But has great mechanical application

#

Unlike uhmwpe

reef tundra
#

High temperature, high performance polymer

pallid totem
empty wren
#

But I can only find it easily available in powered form

reef tundra
#

PEEK can be processed by conventional methods such as injection molding, extrusion, compression molding etc. However, the processing conditions used to mold PEEK can influence the crystallinity, and hence the mechanical properties.

As a linear thermoplastic, Polyetheretherketone can be melt processed in the temperature range of 370 to 420°C. While processing Polyetheretherketone, no corrosive gases are evolved.

empty wren

Shh

So even those mechanical properties can suck
