[old marlin]

ye

well

not with AM5

[ashen spindle]

do some manual oc to get it to 3600

oh ye

I mean for the 5600x upgrade you can keep it

ye that should be quite a nice upgrade value

[old marlin]

ye asked my brother on a deal

will prob be 230

used 2700x ain't worth shit

[ashen spindle]

even better neat

[old marlin]

might replace my z800 with it

idk

in the far future

[pale sigil]

Ohh my new isp router is 2.5gb

[fickle ore]

i meant in game not in benchmarks

[pale sigil]

"Pretty good quality, not a great deal of bass but they are pretty clear and good for most content, battery life seems pretty reasonable and overall the physical quality feels good."

Amazon declined my review and said i was breaching their guidelines

execs learning from the past? never heard of it

[pale sigil]

i miss this software

nothing comes close

but its like $70/year

cant even arrr it

kinda refreshing ngl

hearing a dev say that

[empty wren]

THEY JUSTARTED WORKING ON IT

[timid chasm]

bold of you to assume it will be on a current gen console

ps7 gen at least is my guess

Don't you love it when the screws that came with your AM4 mounting bracket doesn't fit the backplate 😦

[timid chasm]

I'm a liar. Apparently I swapped that backplate with another somewhere along the line for another cpu cooler. Found a backplate the works, woot.

[empty wren]

Initiate Protocol POF

[timid chasm]

Since you all gave me shit for it I decided to get an NVME and experience games with it

[reef patrol]

🎉

[timid chasm]

thought maybe texture blur was part of it but that's just shitty dlss

[halcyon moss]

you gamed from a hdd?

do you still live in 2014?

[timid chasm]

I have and play too many games too regularly to bother constantly moving installs

[halcyon moss]

im still surprised ppl actually recommend spinny bois in gaming build on r/buildapc

[wheat plume]

10TB drive???!!! Wow

[halcyon moss]

wow? is this large?

||no||

[wheat plume]

What speed?

[halcyon moss]

not fast?

[wheat plume]

5400rpm?

[ashen spindle]

do they even still make hdds slower than 7200?

[halcyon moss]

are those real besides laptop drives? and do THOSE even exist anymore?

[wheat plume]

Pretty sure that if you need large ass drives they are all still 5400

[wheat plume]

How expensive though?

[shadow minnow]

All my SSDs are faster than 7000mbps atm (have only one on laptop and one in pc too)
Yet file manager on windows takes long even when sorting from newest or sth
Disappointed

[halcyon moss]

no

[ashen spindle]

450 for that one I think? so about the price for a 4tb nvme

[wheat plume]

Ahh okk

[shadow minnow]

Ngl expected that to cost more

[ashen spindle]

18tb you can get for 280

[wheat plume]

Windows does strange things

Takes 10 seconds to load 2gb worth of images for me

[shadow minnow]

Yeah. Honestly don’t get what’s wrong with file manager

Unless I use ehdd on macos almost everything is instant with search and especially sorting files

[wheat plume]

It might be the fact that the entire rest of the desktop is also file explorer
So it's constantly running and doing shit

[halcyon moss]

what is 2gb worth of images, and what does load mean?

[wheat plume]

The pictures folder on my storage SSD

It's about 2gb large

[halcyon moss]

you mean open in explorer? with or without preview?

[wheat plume]

It's got small thumbnails

[halcyon moss]

thats a butload of data when trying to tumbnail that

[wheat plume]

I guess
I see on Linux sometimes there is a hidden .thumbs folder
I guess that's how it caches and loads folders faster

Cause it works for sure

[shadow minnow]

How is it only 2gb?

Well all I can say even with sorting by date which I don’t see why it takes windows ages.

[wheat plume]

Used to be almost 9gb

[ashen spindle]

think thats less the ssd/hdd at fault and rather the search algos being not the best on lower end cpus

[wheat plume]

I did some digital cleanup xd

Ryzen 5 3600
Low end cpu xd

It's not bad

[shadow minnow]

I can fill up 200gb in my phone in under half a year usually

[wheat plume]

Omo

My phone is 64gb lol

[halcyon moss]

yeah but you shoot RAW

-_-

[shadow minnow]

Well on 11900k with 7000mbps SSD was still slow for me

[shadow minnow]

Not always

[wheat plume]

Ah... That explains it

[shadow minnow]

To be fair raw photos sometimes take up 9 times the storage

At least my phone doesn’t support pro res or how is it called

[halcyon moss]

anyway.. the prices are apparently more expensive for just the HDD, sometimes you can get the disk for less in as external one

[wheat plume]

I am trying a new font, im not sure if I hate or love it... xd

its called Contemporary made by Victor Tran

PeppermintOS looks so ugly now ;-; I used to really enjoy how it looked

white square borders around everything, very strange

and light tab bar

[halcyon moss]

font looks fuzzy

oh thats because of the scaled down image...

its kinda hard to read

[wheat plume]

its pretty large font in person

Despite setting it to size 11 in settings

[pale sigil]

Tis a great cpu

Meant to reply to the thing after that

[wheat plume]

:P

Tbf, Im pissed off at myself for not buying an AMD GPU when I was picking out the parts for this computer

[pale sigil]

It's fucking shit at temps tho

[wheat plume]

so is my current system

86C under load :/

[pale sigil]

3600 open a window and it'll go from 40c to 70c

Spikes were unreal

[wheat plume]

wut

[pale sigil]

3600 temp spikes are just weird

[ashen spindle]

I feel like your cursed pcs aren't a fair comparison to the general user

[pale sigil]

Exaggerated that a little

Mate it ain't my pc

[wheat plume]

general users buy prebuilt

[ashen spindle]

and? prebuilts also have the 3600

[wheat plume]

yep

but they most likely have a better cooling system than stock cooler

[pale sigil]

It was pbo

It does weird shit

[wheat plume]

huh?

[ashen spindle]

in what world do prebuilts have better cooling that DIY pcs lol

its the exact opposite

[wheat plume]

well, my diy pc

I literally only have stock cooling

[pale sigil]

Quinn you were literally explaining this to me when I was trying to figure it out

Lol

Quin

God fucking damn it

Why does quinn have to be special

With 2 Ns

[ashen spindle]

dw I also use quinn as short name in other places

ye dont remember it, pbo does make sense but shouldn't be that big of a spike I think? idk been too long

I just know your pcs are cursed

[pale sigil]

As I said I was exaggerating prob

[halcyon moss]

quint and quinn

Linus finally got a deck

[wheat plume]

yeh! he did

I saw the yt short he made for it

its an absolute UNIT of a device!

[reef patrol]

Yes?

It's just THICC

[halcyon moss]

and thats good :p

[wheat plume]

thicc = comfy af

my laptop keyboard is very left leaning, but this one is very right aimed, cause the laptop has an extra column of keys on the right and this one ends at enter on the right

oooooo I fixed the FN keys being borked!!!

this command

[halcyon moss]

apple?

[crimson wigeon]

Makes sense since it appears to pretend to be an Apple keyboard

[wheat plume]

yeh

[halcyon moss]

which KB?

[wheat plume]

Its a cheap ass ADX board

ADX MK067 or something

60% layout

[thick elk]

Seems so far review units for the deck are being spread well, I know at least gamers nexus and phoronix also have one.
Not surprising but still

[wheat plume]

WHY TF ARE THESE THE SAME PRICE?!?

[pale sigil]

taking painfully long

[pale sigil]

numbers are numbers

might be a case of cheaper parts

[wheat plume]

Someone asking me if the RTX 2060 is a good gift for someone

idk what brand the PSU is though

[pale sigil]

[wheat plume]

yep!

[shadow minnow]

Hmm may be non branded

[wheat plume]

dafuq

[reef patrol]

Ah yes... I remember those. Bit of a pain to install but otherwise... decent?

[shadow minnow]

For their price definitely

[wheat plume]

why is one 83 and the other is 43?

[reef patrol]

Bad pricing bot

[shadow minnow]

Also the delivery price

[wheat plume]

b r e x i t

[empty wren]

Tixerb

[shadow minnow]

Well in comparison to the other one with free delivery

But yeah brexit sucks

Though apparently they extended it

So if I get really lucky

May manage to get like citizenship or how is it called. Which would mean chipper uk unis and stuff Pog

[ashen spindle]

because one is out of stock so the price means nothing

[shadow minnow]

True

[ashen spindle]

we dont even know if its the same seller lol

that screenshot shows nothing

[reef patrol]

Mnope. Free market - As long as sales are actually sales and not raised prices that are then dropped again to make it appear like a sale within 6 weeks.

[wheat plume]

a server my ex asked me to join cause its about a mutual interest

And you got muted for what? Insensitivity or smth?

if only i stuck to that budget

[old marlin]

bought a 5600x as well

[pale sigil]

and that gpu

[old marlin]

paid 200€

[pale sigil]

and that ram

i think i spent like 2k or 2/5k

[fickle ore]

Anyone ever tested HM Embody?

[old marlin]

didn't lazer have one

[fair gull]

2fifth of a k is 400

[fickle ore]

hmm could have been

I could get embody for 1.3k€

[old marlin]

Not an especially good deal

Can get a logitech one for 1.1k

And a reg one for 920

[fickle ore]

really?

[old marlin]

Ye

I can get a display one from a retailer for 1.25k

[fickle ore]

I cant see one for 920€ in eu

[old marlin]

My first okay pc was 1k

But I spent 600€ on screens this year alone

Not to mention an upgrade of essentially my entire system

You mean the qdoled one?

Prob over 2k

Ye was in a good deal

[shadow minnow]

Well issue is it looks ugly/too thick
Also heavy and need for cooling

Well thickness still matters especially if you have small table

And if it needs active cooling that means noise

It kinda does with really small table since extra space in back required there may be.
But cooling may be the biggest issue
Though having PSU built in is cool

[ashen spindle]

a whopping 0 people will buy/not buy that monitor based on looks/size of the backside

its not like there will be other options with that panel for a while lol

im just disappointed they are still using hdmi 2.0 and dp 1.4 for the monitor

[latent mural]

could you guys please check #archived_fortnite_double_movement

[ashen spindle]

no, stop posting in other chanels about it

oh and apparently the monitor will also only have hdr 400 rip

[shadow minnow]

Oh that’s pretty disappointing indeed ngl

DP 2.0 may not have controllers easy to get but at least hdmi 2.1 they should have used

[ashen spindle]

hmm could be, I remember there was something like that yea

guess it could be the same for dp2.0

oh well, I dont have a console so the dp 1.4 will be just fine for me

assuming I do get it but I plan on it unless some issues appear or somehow something better comes out

but giving the low share of ultrawides I doubt it lol

[shadow minnow]

Idk if there are any DP 2.0 controllers yet. I know last year there weren’t around summer but idk now

[ashen spindle]

ofc there are

[shadow minnow]

o.o are there also some monitors with DP 2.0 yet? Tbh stopped kinda following some tech stuff lately so idk about that many new things

[wheat plume]

copilot is a funny thing

[fair gull]

at least even i can write better code than that

[old marlin]

to be fair

if you put in better comments

it usually does a decent job

one of my colleagues uses it almost exclusively by now

or at least a lot

[pale sigil]

Does copilot still plagiarize

[old marlin]

[halcyon moss]

how can it not?

[old marlin]

of course

[pale sigil]

It used other people's code at one point

[halcyon moss]

it is trained on it

so how can it not?

[ashen spindle]

That’s how it’s supposed to work sorta

[pale sigil]

Ye I know

But I meant it literally outputted someone's text too not just code xD

nah devolo is known for mediocre networking stuff

they apparently made a loss of 10 million in 2019

and could not recover from that

Valve Gaming Headphones.....YES PLZ

They are shockingly good at audio apparently

[neat oriole]

[wheat plume]

https://youtu.be/gxKd0nr6uYw

seems to have a lot to say about load speeds

How is he able to edit the CPU core count and speed in realtime?

[astral haven]

The index has the best audio in vr

[thick elk]

I can confirm the index audio is really good, turns out if your hardware is at least decent you can eq it to be excellent which is exactly what valve does.

[wheat plume]

wow!

I honestly would buy Valve headphones

but I cannot imagine how they would look cause Valve make very ... unique.. looking hardware

[thick elk]

the ones on the Index are inbetween speakers and headphones.

[wheat plume]

hm?

[thick elk]

there is a pretty wide gap deliberately with nothing but air inbetween so it is effectively somewhere in between

[wheat plume]

seems forza horizon 5 cant go 16:10

there is letterboxing

XD

Portal 2 loads 13 seconds slower on SD card, but most other games are within 2-4 seconds

Odd...

Im picking out stuff I find strange

[thick elk]

watching GN's hardware review right now

[ashen spindle]

you're not here very often are you tino

[fair gull]

what

[wheat plume]

watch the start of the video, hes parking CPU cores and lowing frequency and shit in realtime as the game is loaded to show how it effects the games performance

[fair gull]

pretty sure hes not

[wheat plume]

He found that in Control, that 4 cores 4 threads is faster performance that using all 6 cores and 6 threads

Sincee the Deck raises the clock speed to those 4 cores

[ashen spindle]

its a basic ass pc in small format, ofc you can do what any normal other pc does

[wheat plume]

Yeh, but idk what tool that is

[fair gull]

oh

thats the power modes

[pale sigil]

@fair gullHost WootUp on the steam deck

[wheat plume]

LOL

[fair gull]

iirc the soc can have some modes for more perf and less perf

[astral haven]

Power modes on amd require a reboot

Realtime you just adjust power limits

Throttle more or less

[fair gull]

ya but you can easily just go full power

[wheat plume]

yeah, and he is controlling the core count and frequency

[fair gull]

and then always adjust limits

[wheat plume]

while the game is running

[fair gull]

its basically the same but reboot less

[astral haven]

Ye but adjusting core count realtime is different

[astral haven]

And the power modes do a bunch more than just power limits

[wheat plume]

He has two decks.... wow

[fair gull]

this is a 25watt soc ¯_(ツ)_/¯

not that theres much it changes

[astral haven]

Yes which is why the power modes matter so much

On a 135w CPU who cares about 5 watts
But 4 watts out of 25 is huge

[fair gull]

does it really matter tho

why buy a portable gaming pc and then fuck its perf

[astral haven]

To get better battery...

[fair gull]

dont buy a portable machine if u dont like having to watch out for battery?

i mean

simple maths

[astral haven]

That battery is large for the size of the unit
But it's not much in absolute terms

[wheat plume]

40Wh

[fair gull]

so at 25w thats almost 2hr

[astral haven]

About 2/3 of my laptop

[wheat plume]

my laptop is 50Wh xd

but I dont game on it lol

[astral haven]

Yup which is why it's impressive that it gets 6 sometimes

[fair gull]

isnt 25 just max

[astral haven]

Power limit

[fair gull]

yes

[astral haven]

Not peak power

Peak power is probably closer to 30

For "105 tdp" amd CPUs, the power limit is 135w and the peak stock power is 145w

[fair gull]

easy fix

buy a portable 500w generator

use a normal pc

[empty wren]

e.e

[astral haven]

Yup

[fair gull]

https://discordjs.moe/acqmups4h7aa.png

slightly less expensive than the biggest deck

and u can power a few pcs

only weights 155kg aswell

so easily strapped onto anyones back

@fair gull friend is asking is it safe to send the barcode for her switch to someone who wants to buy it?

My guess is checking is stolen but bleh ik sharing imei isn't super good

[old marlin]

no

it is not

who tf reports their switch as stolen with the barcode

[fair gull]

its for checking serial for hacking compat

[old marlin]

they obv just wanna check if it is an old model

[fair gull]

ya

[pale sigil]

I thought it would be to check for hacking

[old marlin]

would still not send

[fair gull]

eh would send

if its hackable ez money

obviously would check urself first

[pale sigil]

They are clearly wanting to abuse her lack of knowledge

[fair gull]

so u know its hackable or not to adjust price

[pale sigil]

I advised she doesn't sell it

And hacks herself

But up to her

[fair gull]

solid advice but if she doesnt want it then sell it

[pale sigil]

She got an oled recently

[fair gull]

so she prob doesnt need 2

i mean at that point id check it if i were u

and advise her on a good prive depending on if its hackable or not

also sending srnr is ok and you can blur the barcode and last half easily

only the first like 6 or so characters are important

[empty wren]

Why say instead of can I try on your shoes

[fair gull]

cause its cals friend not mine

just my own action would be inform my friend of the worth and to add this small extra info since it helps selling

[empty wren]

Okay

Ask for their shoes

It will help you think in their shoes

altho not just the standoffs had to order an entire retention kit

cause the standoffs themselves arent in stock

anyway it work

it boot

it toot toot

[reef patrol]

It boot, it toot but most importantly it SHOOT

https://tenor.com/view/finger-guns-michael-scott-steve-carell-the-office-pew-gif-14552925

[fair gull]

now im waiting for the seperate standoffs to complete the retention kit again

and then prob sell it

[old marlin]

lol

my arctic freezer came with LGA1700 kit already btw

[fair gull]

ya with corsair they officially have it but obviously depends on old/new stock

its literally just 4 standoffs missing

[old marlin]

Ah.... Got to love when windows doesn't like your touchpad and refuses to acknowledge it's existence

[empty wren]

Ewww

Touchpad

[halcyon moss]

so steam deck reviews all seem quite positive so far

[wheat plume]

I needed to install Intel SerialIO drivers

[wheat plume]

I'm not surprised by that but I'm still happy about it

It helps that it doesn't have an competition

Well, it does, but they cost 3 times the price

[halcyon moss]

neither am i surpised

[wheat plume]

I thought you were skeptical of it?

Or was that someone else?

[halcyon moss]

somewhat.. but the specs looked good

[wheat plume]

Aha

[halcyon moss]

reviews are important to make in anformed decision

[wheat plume]

Yep!

[crimson wigeon]

But le Valve drop support meme

[halcyon moss]

that was never really true

oh they didnt make a version 2 of the link or the controller

[wheat plume]

[halcyon moss]

i dont kinkshame

[wheat plume]

same xd

Actually, there are some stuff I will kinkshame

He only uses telegram for kde dev stuff though

[misty saffron]

booba

[wheat plume]

OH LOL, later in the video he uses one of those to show off the set as wallpaper option in the context menu

FINALLY PLASMA HAS THAT

ITS BEEN TOO LONG

TBF, you could just literally drag the image onto the desktop to set it as wallpaper but not many people knew you could do that

[reef patrol]

Very counter intuitive. I'd image saving the image as a file in that case. Or moving the image.

[wheat plume]

it brings up a little menu to copy, move or set as wallpaper when you drag it onto the desktop

[shadow minnow]

Ngl sounds annoying if you can’t disable it and it pops up every time

But also with windows wish you could just with one press make full screen screeenshot that auto saves it as a file ngl.

[misty saffron]

what do you mean initiating a drag and drop operation, used for moving files, to set desktop background is counterintuitive?

linux developers are great at ux

[crimson wigeon]

You can press winkey+printscreen for that immediate saved fullscreen screenshot btw

[old marlin]

on windows that would be bloat

[crimson wigeon]

Add in alt to make it only be the active window (this goes through game bar however)

[wheat plume]

ah yes, the OS that comes with Disney+, Spotify, Hulu, Netflix, Facebook, Insta, TikTok and Candy Crush preinstalled

Such bloat a right click menu will cause!

[old marlin]

how does this relate

[shadow minnow]

Well still it sounds annoying for moving images from Google to desktop if it pops up everytime

[shadow minnow]

I think he meant different kind of bloat

[old marlin]

if you wanna move then move it

if you wanna copy

then say you wanna copy

aka right click>copy or ctrl+c

[crimson wigeon]

Or right click drag

[halcyon moss]

your issues baffle me sometimes

Where do I download the MS office installer?

no, I fixed it a few days back

but this is so I dont have to remember the command

[crimson wigeon]

Pretty sure you'd only have to modify that config file once, unless your system is broken

[wheat plume]

it undid itself today for some reason

ffs Windows, first the touchpad now this?

[wheat plume]

you got to give it your IP address

wut

[reef tundra]

Just post your IP address publically. It's fun! For someone..

[thick elk]

To be fair you give your ip address to a lot of places quite regularly.

[timid chasm]

And a lot of times it's easy for others to get when playing any online games with something like Wireshark

[misty saffron]

any online game? most definitely not lol

only if it’s really bad

[young pecan]

If they’re peer to peer there’s a 90% chance there’s nothingness in IP hiding fuckery going on.

Even server based there’s a good shot it’s available.

[ashen spindle]

im amazed how little it is abused in TF2 aside from a few streamers getting ddosed when they try it

[misty saffron]

you can’t hide ips in peer to peer communication

[thick elk]

I would guess latency is a big factor here

[ashen spindle]

and how it's a thing in a valve game in the first place...

[young pecan]

There’s a few things you can do, but they cause more problems than they fix.

Proxies, spoofing, that kind of thing.

[thick elk]

they would all cause extra latency though

[young pecan]

You can’t protect against a DOS attack that way, but the general information can be.

[young pecan]

Yee, this.

[misty saffron]

not sure how that relates to peer to peer but sure

[young pecan]

You can hide the origin IP which doesn’t protect against much of anything but I suppose it’s better than exposing it.

[misty saffron]

or just don’t play games where the developers with their infinite wisdom have decided peer to peer comms is a perfectly fine solution in current day and age

[young pecan]

Oh ikr.

Oh boy, my bullshit detector is going off.

[reef tundra]

Sounds very sussy

Kinda how oil companies were marketing carbon capture as something viable

[young pecan]

Yeah, this stinks of bullshit.

[ashen spindle]

yup its merely an addition needed to reducing emissions and as most of these things, sounds cool, but wait till it's working outside of a lab

[young pecan]

Biggest thing to reduce emissions would be actually hold companies and business responsible like they are.

[reef tundra]

Sounds a lot like a catalytic converter...

[young pecan]

Even if you lived minimal carbon over your entire lifetime it's something like 2 seconds of produce from any fuel company on the planet.

Imho, if you charge our current prices for water, let's say, 2€ per cubic litre, instead you supply coke

It'd still be insanely profitable

Samsung phones may soon be the best way to take photos on social media...

They are working with third parties like Insta and snapchat to integrate the system camera app and all its features into those apps

so shit like portrait mode videos and photos on snapchat and whatnot

[earnest jay]

So even more reasons for me not to get Samsung phones.

[wheat plume]

LOL

gimme a phone with no front camera and I will be happy
or at least, one that hides away like the Mi Mix 3 or popup cameras

[earnest jay]

Pop up cams seem to have been an unfortunately short lived gimmick on phones.

[wheat plume]

Yeah ;-;

Under-display ones freak me out

the more that tech advances, the more itll be used for pervy shit .-.

[earnest jay]

Japanese fusion company's estimates I actually believe in

They said they expect to have a fully working one by 2050

Good enough for unlimited power

[young pecan]

This time we actually have the tech.

It works, the question remains does it work at scale.

If you go over ITERs math it does add up, it’s just the ridiculous construction price of the containment.

Just make an at home RTG.

Nothing stops you from going into the Aussie outback and mining yourself some uranium to put in a lead box.

Demon Core Outback Edition. 👌

[ashen spindle]

the wishful iter numbers or the realistic ones from the article I linked earlier? 😛

[young pecan]

I mean the fusion math alone. :p

That does add up, it’s if anybody can do it in a way that doesn’t require you to build an ITER.

Literally any other design would be massively easier to construct.

[ashen spindle]

I more meant about the part that the energy it needs to produce has to be massively higher than people thought for the longest time

[young pecan]

Oh no we all knew that already.

Claims to generate 500MW but in order for it to be commercially viable it has to do more.

[cursive summit]

Um, I did see this a few days ago

https://spectrum.ieee.org/3d-printing-could-usher-in-safe-nuclear

[young pecan]

Eh. The existing problem really isn’t a huge dilemma tbh.

Though it should be noted that even with nuclear waste it’s less globally harmful than any other kind of power generation except debatably solar.

[cursive summit]

Nuclear waste 30 years ago was defo something we should have considered as not good

Nowadays, it's really damn good

Since we finally found ways to utilize the nuclear waste produced

And afaik, it has no carbon emissions

Nuclear energy rn is the way

[reef patrol]

We need that Dyson sphere asap xD

[young pecan]

Lmao nah.

Electric cars aren’t that energy demanding.

Just a 10% Dyson swarm would be insane energy and we can even start doing it today.

Too bad nobody wants to put money into space. -_-

[empty wren]

Everyone starts using electric cars like right now all at once, imagine the waste

[young pecan]

Again, even that wouldn’t manage to outpace a Dyson swarm.

[empty wren]

Rest in piece electric bill

[young pecan]

So let's say everybody has 4 Teslas and is charging them all at once, this is 224 trillion watts or so, rough math suggests a Dyson Swarm at 10% coverage would produce something like 334 trillion watts.

20% coverage with 20% higher efficiency solar would do something near a quadrillion watts.

LET'S GO LADS, SOLAR CARS FOR EVERYONE!

Oh I fully agree.

Cars need to mostly fuck off.

Better electric bikes all the way.

Nah.

The better ones can do about 200km assisted.

Or 50 powered.

[empty wren]

It thought it was meant to just assist people a bit

[young pecan]

This.

With 60% assistance it's something like 100km with the bigger batteries.

[empty wren]

Quite a lot

[young pecan]

More than you'd realistically do.

[empty wren]

And nobody probably for the most part is riding that much a day

[young pecan]

It's also good to remember that the estimates are assuming the worse case of you ride 50km one way to pick up some paper and then immediately ride back.

Nobody is doing that.

[empty wren]

Oh like a moped?

Or just an actual motorcycle with electric motors?

[young pecan]

The goal is don't buy utter trash.

Electric bikes rn are very much in a frankenquest state.

[empty wren]

If cars are iffy I would not trust a motorcycle

Even more limited range

[young pecan]

Nah, not that bad.

Between 5 and 30k for an electric motorcycle.

Decent range too.

I not once said you didn't have to do work on it.

[empty wren]

Probably would have to yeah

Maybe good if batteries can be produced as well

You mean deposits

Bruh

Do they have anything to show

Cause Nikola
