Imagine drumming while wearing that Razer kitty headphones
In my local market the pink one was easier to find than the black and green one lmao
they have some software here too
well.. im not the person to say 5g gives you corona or anything... but sending big amounts of elec trough the air could impact stuff we might not realize yet
and there is just no way back once its there
this is wifi/ BT / radio and all sorts of waves
too late anyway
my phone melted my brain
might as well die
its my story and Im sticking to it
we still have no idea why some whale groups just swim onto the beach
prolly lured there by pay to win
better cosmetics on the beach
so if a cable can do the job ill go for that.. those are insulated
they generate just tiny magnetic fields
sometimes animals just want to die
why do people jump of buildings
thats the one thing animals dont want.. ppl are a diffrent story
did the president of whales tell you this?
just cause they can't post it on facebook before they die
they are also further away from other people
also, just more people live near wifi
nah not true.. lot of ppl live far from wifi
people not in the neighbourhood of wifi also live in more rural / less developed areas, -> larger chance to already die of something else
correlation != causation
cities are extremely toxic in many ways... its not a suitable place for every1
didn't say no one did, just said more do
well belgium is basically 1 big city
very high population density yeah
but there's a difference to living in small town vs living in Brussels
Trump was correct about one thing, it is a hellhole
its funny how people who live closest to city and centralisation are large proponents of decentralisation like crypto
i most def aint saying wifi is a cause of suicide its the stuff that comes with it
the impact of wifi on anything at all i have no clue about
if i put an antenna in my garden i can leach enough power from wifi transmitters to power a LED ๐
thats not a whale its a fish
The baby said hello :DDDD
COD now cost 70โฌ as base ?
Wonder if season pass will be $10 more too
In this tutorial, Senior Technical Product Manager Raffaele Fragapane takes you through the process of turning your own custom scan, sculpt, or model into a MetaHuman using the Mesh to MetaHuman feature in the new MetaHuman Plugin for Unreal Engine. He also covers further refining your MetaHuman in MetaHuman Creator. Download the plugin here: ht...
can't find the plugin
here it is ๐
https://i.gyazo.com/4f57a08f0c8ad93d53b52a4f29842565.gif ooh, accidental beauty
Is that 'just' reflection/refraction or have you got some internal pom like stuff going on in there?
luos what magician with effects
Cool, so you're basically taking a couple repeating values to use as a centre point [thus moving it within those values], and offsetting the Z and then using that as an alpha mask to drive the colour lerp before finally getting mixed in with the noise which is using a negative bump offset. Genius.
close enough
Hmm. Postman has just been. Yet another ninja swag bag.
amazon fucked me again today
ordered package, said it would arrive tomorrow
postman arrives today with package
of course I'm not home today
so now I have to go pick it up in the post office tommorow
from 1 pm
lucky for me, the post office is only open till 5pm
sounds like you need a package delivery box
man why are game modes so tough to make ๐ฆ
I wish i can take lyras game mode and expose it as blueprint.
Hey i work at fed ex
you should see the stuff we do
when we get trailers, tvs are at the bottom with all the heavy stuff on top of it ๐
cant u just make a BP of of the gamemode class? ๐
Hellofresh is hellobad. completely melted and dusty discusting boxes on top of it.
well i did some forklift stuff back in the days... crazy is the only way to describe it
I live in an appartment, can't just put it in the hallway
and the ones that they have are a town away
All the little things need to be inited by the player controller and the character. I
where the post office is
Yoou cant just copy n paste. i wish
ahh, yeah its annoying. I get deliveries from the post office here and our post box is no where near the house. We're trying to sort something out so they can leave them down near the mail box
did u know that if u have a plastic bottle of ketchup ... and u put a pallet of stuff on there it sprays that shit over 100meter? ๐
usually they don't care and ram it in the mailbox or just put it on top of it
I've had my keyboard delivered hanging for 70% outside of my mailbox
thanks mailman
wtf lmfao
not the first time he did me dirty like this
looks like it work work no more
lol i delivered newspapers for a year or so... there were a few houses and if i put the paper in and wiggle it a bit the dog would come and completely shred it
yes.. i would go ... here boy
fuck this shit up
soo i guess ur lucky... i would have ur dog completely tear ur keyboard up
I hope there's no dog living in the hallway
also i remember a lot of those mailboxes are kinda sharp and u do get wounds on ur hands sometimes
well not super sharp but if doin stuff fast u can get nasty scratches
mostly those old fancy designs
like those goth door knockers
is surface pro 8 usable for unreal engine?
or would it be better to get something that has rtx
most annoying is ur usually the first to walk the garden and u get wet spiderwebs in ur face
easiest way to find out is to just install it and see if it works
i dont have it still considering
but i feel like it might be slow
looks like it has 8 GB RAM which is not a lot
ill show u which im considering getting
you can probably get away without a big power RTX GPU as long as you don't plan on using raytracing or Lumen or such, but having some more RAM and decent CPU would probably be good
its for school as well
i have no idea what im buying since ive been using an 840m for years
so i kinda need help
#hardware could probably help more with it, I'm not really up to date with this either lol
my setup is like 6 years old at this point but still runs UE just fine
sure
๐ ๐ญ ๐คค ๐ค
i like how you still have pictures of these xD
so any potatoe would seem like a supercomputer ๐
๐น
i allways say its better to buy a 2k$ PC every 2 years than a 5k pc every 5 years
I bought a 1.4k pc 4 years ago, does that count
spend some extra money on the case... you can use those 4ever.... and spend extra on the PSU.. it will save on power and they can last multiple systems too
around 1.5k is usually what i spend aswell
mobo/cpu/gpu/ram are the only ones you really need to upgrade between systems
and upgrade when its needed.. that can be 2 or 5 years
the rest of it will usually keep working unless you have some particular need to upgrade
just don't upgrade ๐ง
be free
if you upgrade sufficiently often you probably only need to get a new CPU or GPU :P
yea but GPU is like 80% of new pc budget so might aswelll get a new PC and donate ur old1 to some1
you mean put the old parts into storage for some purpose that never arrives
80% is a bit high
ahh yea i have a pile o old hardware aswell
79%
pretty sure I spent about the same on my CPU and GPU last time I got them :P i7 6900K and 1080 ti
so 45% each?
1/3 gpu, 1/4 cpu, rest hdd/ram/psu/mobo
i do migrate my HDDs
Hmm... in fact, last gpu spike, it was 1/2
or just copy my entire HDD to a new HDD with 3x the space
I just move stuff between drives if it looks like they're about to die lol
If you move them quick enough, it gets the bad bits flat and shiny.
well HD Sentinel gives sufficient advance warning about it usually
6900K was when AMD had no dencent alternative right?
Yea, my prev was 69** something.
5-6 years ago
Or more ๐ค
The Zen was just getting out.
i had a 4700k.. pretty expensive but intel was the only option
They lack cores, but still are better in any other aspect.
zen1 was ok but low clock and lower whateverucall it
Speaking of drive health ๐ค
thats not how healthbars work!
Yeah I mean it just recommends to monitor it at that point
if it drops more then it might be time to get a new one... total power on time puts this drive at about 5 years age at this point lol
(for SSD's it uses wear leveling count for the health%)
250gig should be fairly old.... my windrive is 120gig... it sucks
Cheap maybe... 850 are also few years old.
i do my best to keep 15 gig free
yea i know ssd needs some free... but it isnt even for that ๐
I never paid any attention to that tbh
is that really okay?
does that means you can't use 1/4th of youe storage now?
No, it's just a heuristic based on wear leveling to give you an idea if you might want to consider replacing it yet
Of course if it detects actual bad sectors or such it'll probably flag it in the health value as well
Less scary than not knowing lol
catastrophic HD failures are rare
I had some old SSD's which started acting up but they did still read
until they no longer did
but I never lost any data because I started backing them up as soon as any weird behavior started presenting itself :P
Hmmm... Kinda once upon a time, these failed more
i wonder if it's like knowing when you will die or something. it's helpful but sad or something
haha
nah HDD fails allways been low
it's a disk I don't think it's anything like knowing when you would die lol
HDDs are vunrable to bein dropped tho
Well, back in 90s, 00s I remember failures. Not since then.
yeah with HDD's you usually start seeing either bad sectors or slow seek times
at that point you tend to still have time to save the data as long as you notice it in time
true i suppose ๐
back in the 90s hard drive prices were dropping so fast i allways got upgrade B4 fail
ram failures are more scary
just nmove my entire 500mb drive to my new 4 gig new drive
ram fail wil stop ur pc from booting up
lol, my ram failure before months did that
But also and random wakes
Interestingly, it never crashed during work
ram failure you just replace it, not gonna lose any data over that ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
my last upgrade i went from HDD + windows SSD to full SSD... so my HD size improve was non existant
if i went full HDD i would have a lot of drivespace
I still use HDD's for storage purposes since the price per TB is significantly lower
Have one external
i put the HDD from my old pc into an external casing... but its only 1 TB
like i have 2 1TB SSDs now... i could get a 10TB HDD for storage tho
that would put me on more HD space in use that i ever had
Hmm... Thought these are 8 being optimal for price/storage. The bigger ones
Green labels were cheaper if memory serves right
i dunno in what sizes hdds come these days ๐
thing is.. if i got a 50TB drive i would prolly fill it within a year... but now organizing it at some point would be horror ๐
so ill just stick with 200 gig and sort it from time to time
Just move everything in one folder "OLD" and then pluck out as needed.
i have over 50 icons on my desktop... im a madman
Polar opposite. I have zero icons
can't be bothered to delete them because never even look at it
lets just take 3 files on my desktop... one caled s.... 2 called s2 and they all have a diffrent formate and i cant remember what they are
๐
please name them in a useful manner !!!
๐ข
Chaos!
well i might not have had a reason to call the 1st file S.... but i most def had a reason to call the 2nd AND 3rd S2
I have files called untitled.jpg and untitled.png on my desktop
I use them as temporary files basically... every time I want to save an image to say share on discord or something, I just save it with that name on desktop lol
i have new text document and new folder
that's okay i guess, they have a single purpose so you can't be bothered to change names
yeah I mean if I kept changing names I'd end up with 100 random images on my desktop that I don't really care about
but then I'd need to check each and every one of them to ensure I want to actually delete them
but S ๐ค , if you had to name something, you can give it an easier to figure out name
i started naming sorta temp files with ; please delete me tag
if I don't care about the image I just call it untitled so I know deleting or overwriting it in the future is ok lol
so i can just delete stuff that says delete me if i dont recall what it is
Files begging to be let go
atleast you have a way to figure out importance, that's neat ๐
its the only system that worked for me so far
you have 2 temp files, more than enough for image posting lol
exactly lol
i don't have a great memory and i get back to anything after big intervals of time so idk what's what, this is why i name everything in an obvious way now ๐
also the reason why i add notes to people or save long contact names
nice, now I have emo gf ๐
call her cherry black queen
suicidal, bipolar but full of passion
ready to die for all the right reasons
lol
atleast a decent character to chanel personal problems through
or atleast hide behind it
Oh dear, I tried to post untitled.png from my desktop and the discord robot deemed it NSFW
it was just an AI generated picture of Hulk Hogan and Undertaker having a tea ceremony
lol
Surely this untitled.jpg from my desktop is not going to get flagged...
Managed to get elon musk riding a moped doing a wheelie
lol
lol nice
I generated a bunch of random stuff like "Steven Seagal wrestling a human sized banana"
where do you generate them?
the one I was playing with is called dall-e mini, you can probably find it on google
but it's gotten super popular lately so it's harder to get anything out of it because it keeps saying it's getting too much traffic
Yeah thats the one i used
I find if you just keep clicking you get it after 4-5 tries
.net paint
In fact thats what gave me my new pfp
Temporary while i figure out an actual decent one tho
I heard paint . net is really good
Never used it
Gonna have to download it then
But where the notepad+++ at
std::shuffle ?
They just need to add a new + for every update
paint.net is kinda good but kinda weird
if you've used photoshop it just feels... wrong in all the ways
that too
Gimp is nice. Krita too.
Latter has even 2d animation.
Gimp just have zero investment in tho.
Who is even maintaining that.
UE's macros are awful btw... disgusting
Gimp has very weird shortcuts and names if you are used to other image editors, that's my only issue with it xD
@sand oxide blender is to PS is what gimp is to maya
that doesn't sound right
oho, rearranging the equation
gimp is to ps what minesweeper is to solitaire
well blender has image edit
it had a game engine
had* right?
I think that was thrown away.
well old versions still have
panda3d btw
yeah they said it doesn't match with their ideals and dumped it
hey atleast it "game engine? check โ " -ed it
you would have to opensource all ur code to release a game with blender
show them your everything huh .
I wonder if anyone has made a game engine that runs within emacs
probably
I knew it
lol
ponki could've enjoyed it ๐
where did he go, I remember last time he was installing wow and from that moment he disappeared
Found a new job
got rebranded
company crashes
new job, kinda sad he had to leave for , idk, whatever reason ๐ค
Oh I noticed someone was missing
Well that kinda sucks
maybe he works for the FBI now and is still watching you
if you are reading this, don't forget to send me the samples you promised ponki !! ๐
do you know about CE?
Yeah, haven't seen them in a while
Unless... ๐
what about conrad? they don't show up in lounge anymore, same as ix.fx but they were recently here in lounge
ce left the server
Yeah I've noticed some lounge regulars missing
CE was often in #cpp if I remember correctly
#level-design - He ended up rage quiting there ๐
well, stuff happens i guess
i should've been more affectionate with them for less regrets!
do you know about lorash?
Yeah, not sure if it would cause him to leave earlier or stay more ๐
Can't remember who Conrad was, I most of the time won't remember the people I don't interact with
he had blocked me so probably wouldn't have changed anything
Oh lorash is still here, I would tell you a secret but it would ruin the fun ๐
i see, i remember him because he wanted to tell me whether hitting a certain key on yt does something or not, he never explained if it does work ๐
Yeah he was quite intolerant ๐ I still miss him in #lounge though 
I cant imagine a slackers without Lorash
ngl they are quite influencial here
possibly why the automod hates them
Oh you know the secret then
Hannah Montana is Miley Cyrus
do you know about intax? ๐
how about sky of japan?
does based engineer ring any bells?
also, BattleMedic
there's also TuesdayTank
all of them name changers
Sounds toxic
it was re zero mc restraining a character called puck
Oh I remember now
oh yeah, there's another. dieter [19 months unreal free]
Don't know who based engineer is now but I remember them
had a deep blue pfp like the #0000ff color with B and E i think idk
ah, it was that idiot who keeps asking stupid questions at cpp
Lol
hello, where should i ask for help about my problem?
find a channel it's about and ask
if you can't decide
check engine version
if ue4 #ue4-general
if ue5 #ue5-general
he was always sparsely active in lounge so idk if i should include him ๐ค
if we are including hevedy then, ioflow? remember him?
Yep
there's also NigeyS with similar low activity
He said, he is livin' some real life lately. ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
thanks ^^
Oh I wouldn't know what that means ๐
wanna know more about reality ? โค๏ธ
Haha, sounds familiar. Take care to do stuff in parallel tho.
only the true cultists can mention that name
was that the one which wrote whole manifests for every question asked?
staring in the mirror, aren't you? ๐
I need to find a hobby, programming was that until it became a job lol
Maybe should start flying the tpv drone I have, haven't flown in 2 years
I'm bored out of my mind lol ๐ฅฒ
if you fly it , you might venture outdoors, watch out
So my Ryzen 2600 is not cute and logical?
True true
imagine if you accidentally poke your eye while doing that
Happened to me a while ago when trying to scratch
Never thought I would actually block anyone here. Then some idiots had to come around and ruin things.
Capturing with drone sounds fun. If you have an aero club around, you can find peeps too.
Lol that came out wrong but what I meant is that I miss here questions almost as much as her
Her questions were one of a kind, well structured and thoughtful ๐ฅฒ
Was that a test?
yes
disclaimer: I used translate for "to scratch"
rub?
Never thought I would actually block anyone here.
You end up blocking multiple persons one way or another ๐
I thought about diving into assembly stuff with some prehistoric system, sounds kinda like fun
yeah 
I was ๐ค this close to get blocked by Lorash though ๐ Dont mess with coroutines
this makes me realise not everyone thinks alike. you really can't predict the world
I rarely block anywhere, generally giving people the benefit of the doubt
Ah I was referring to people that ask for help, then adopt an attitude that they know more than the people offering to help
I need curly brackets in lua ๐ฃ
you're evil
Not gonna lie, you almost had me a few times. At this ๐ต oint it's become an endurance battle
๐ the worst kind of humans
Yeah meant to include the point
I'm VERY close to making a video of the system I've been working on
"yeah, why were you here in therapy?"
"I have someone keeps putting ๐ต on my messages!!"
Trying to figure out how to sneak a ๐ต into it
Lucky you, I can't block because I need to know what people are saying ๐
They keep ๐ต ing on me!
careful, i sense something exploitable ๐
๐
to & so
Jon Skeet is awesome. And funny enough not a C# dev.
But at the point when I have to block someone they will probably already be booted from the server
sounds like a threat
It isn't ๐
Where is this chart?
UE water plugin?
Feel like half the server would be banned lol
then, an invite.. ?๐ฎ
Doubt so
Someone can endure any kind of toxicity in #cpp can endure anything
Oh, sounds interesting
I'll take a look ๐
Perlin noise or?
Near white.
To being booted? ๐
it's weird why you aren't orange though, laura
no that would be a "challenge"
Oh so a theoretical orange you in a distant parallel universe doesn't have a list of people they would ban ๐
makes me think, if you become orange i am probably getting booted
even xero takes notes!
Blue Man will remember that
turning children into actors ๐ how cruel
!8ball does blue man remember that you are self-aware?
@soft night, :8ball: Without a doubt.
Blue Manny
!8ball Is terminator becoming a reality
@broken sigil, :8ball: Yes.
!8ball reality is a lie
@celest musk, :8ball: Yes.
aren't lies sweet, is reality sweet?
if you are the reality that's immeasurably sweet <3
wait i was jk, don't leave !
didn't humans build them?
no cyberdyne did
Time to dust off the equipment
well they seem to be droppin bombs from those things in Ukraine
guess it beats walking around in the cold with a gun
It's extremely quick, max speed for this one is around 160-170 km/h
And the acceleration to that speed is pretty much instant
It has very overpowered motors for its weight lol
yeah it is, and I always fly it in the middle of nowhere
(well some countries have special laws and you have to get a license for them but nothing like that where I live)
prolly gets u arrested if u fly around here ๐
arrested for terrorism if u fly near an airport ๐
More than likely ๐
those big things go up over 5km thats just crazy stuff
also there is this whole line of sight thing for these
someplaces u need to have LOS
or diffrent rules for non line of sight
Yeah this a smaller 5 inch one (prop diameter)
This one fall into the racing/freestyle drone category
Yeah there are some placed with LOS rules
In terms of signal quality, controller signal is usually better than video, lower frequency so better penetration
But you can go behind obstacles and go pretty far out before losing signal, concrete buildings and walls are the worst, they suck up the signal pretty much
The thing with analog video feed is that you can see artifacts in the video feed before you lose it completely
lol
should have seen the police ride in when i turned on a 30.000w lightbulb in my backyard
they had no problem finding the place
we use . and , diffrent here
six blunts to the face
is there a tool to analize character likeness just from picture?
like the key points
thousands
or you just have to sculpt like a bitch
are female dogs specifically good at sculpting?
yea but ppl just step on their work
so where is the info of what an Octree is, in the whole pi number?
if some1 knows Pi more than 4 numbers .. but doesnt know how to calculate a sphere or any other use for it
that person is a bullshitter
memorizing Pi does not make a smart person ๐
metahuman got me in the mood of changing gender in real life again lol
๐
or maybe I should grow long hair, wear make up and play death metal lol
again?
i'm the right one
affectionate is the left one ๐
Left: uses stable ue4 version. Right: used experimental ue5 from day one
theres a stable ue4 version?
should I re-learn japanese
used to know a decent amount, it wasn't much, but understood some and how it worked
or should I just keep trying to learn fr*nch
or maybe the only language I'll ever need is cpp
What is the best app that is similar to reality scan? Reality scan is only on iOS and I'm on Android.
reality scan? Is that like photogrammetry?
Also where is a good area to go to get 3d images becides the marketplace and the bridge?
You gave somehow your answer.
I think I remember using one app once, but I can't remember the name, I'll let you know when I find it again, but you'll probably figure it out soon enough
Alright
Also where is a good area to go to get 3d images becides the marketplace and the bridge?
da hell is 3d image?
*objects @cursive crypt
That is what I said lol
So, just DuckDuckGo it / Google.
photogrammetry assets?
Browse around, if you find the model you want, congrats
Alright thank you!
sketchfab is famous Epic owned.
Doesnt necessarily need to be photogrammetry, cause i dont imagine youd get very far
Epic own sketchfab!?!?!
You know, terminology is important - ppl will just wonder what do you mean. Anyway, 3d objects is much better than 3d image.
Also spend enough time to research. You can get models from sketchfab e.g.
turbosquid, cgtrader, even artstation are other places.
I was trying to think of the right wording. I know it was called 3d model but my brain was fryed.
take your time, it is big field - a lot to learn ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
omg, c++23 gonna get string.contains() ... it took decades
Yes C++23, coming in 3023
/uj its about damned time
sup
Your camera app, if it has manual controls (auto exposure, flash, and noisy image are no no for photoscanning).
More impressed about the flat_map/set coming up tho.
It's not even a real engine
oo
@ionic flame I saw that.... never gonna wipe my mind.
Go back to your cell in #cpp
huh...
It's been a bit unhinged
At least lyra has some C++ in it
Also imagine a mod timing out epic staff
mods just let #cpp do their own thing so they don't leave the cage and infect other channels
another week or two and they might become an emote
there are definitely a few names that I see typing and know things are about to get interesting
what do you guys think of my new computer?
what changes would you make
https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/tXtjGL
PC Builder - Intel Core i9-12900K, GeForce RTX 3080 10GB, Corsair 4000D Airflow ATX Mid Tower
^
Its a good build though. I'd probably go for SSDs over a mass disk drive, but 8tb is hard to match
@steep trellis the PSU is absolute overkill
750W is sufficient for that system, so maybe go for 800W if you want to feel comfortable
from the saved money you can go for a 2TB ssd instead of 1TB
way better invested there
that is peak load, when everything is at 100%, which barely happens under normal circumstances
the RTX 3000 series can hit it rather readily
either some cores of the cpu are idle because games can't use them, or the gpu is at peak and limiting everything else
sure you gonna hit peak, but its either gpu or cpu, not both at once
psu is not a bad thing too overshoot
id rather go safe than sorry but yeah 1200w is definitely overkill
ironically i am using a 1200w power supply but this wasnt an active choice
i thought my main PSU was dead and the only good power supply they had in stock was a corsair 1200
other things happened
now im using it
but its.... a lot more than necessary even with a 3080ti and a 12900k
you most def dont wunna aim for 100% psu use
engineers at corsair ๐
30 to 60 seems a bit low.. but could verry well be the best
those who buy their PSUs from other companies to slap their logo on it?
Didn't corsair start out making psus? ๐ค Nope
you don't have 100% psu use, even with 750W psu at max peak ~700W system
corsair started out making memory modules
also notice something.... their efficiency is pretty much the same, no matter the load
for platinum ~90% efficiency
also get one with dustfilters or something ๐
alright, the marketing team of corsair has spoken
i have a corsair case.. dunno the maker of my psu
whats important is that your PSU is at least 80++ Unobtainium Gold
i'm not toxic
tank's just projecting
you just can't deliver any facts for your claims
muh corsair ram failed, buy me cake
you do seem to have a chip on your shoulder about corsair
which is a bit higher rated than the i9 in terms of power usage
buy a company which at least used to rebrand PSUs
rebrand a psu is not a bad thing
what is threadripper's tdp?
they can test 500 psus... get the best and put their name on it
i think 180w for TR, 125w for i9-12900k (just TDP here)
thats 100% better than a manufactures that sticks to their own design that isnt good ๐
well we had that convo in hardware and laura claimed the same and couldn't tell why
it used to be recommended to have at least 50% load, because PSUs used to be horrible inefficient <50% load
but those times are gone
thanks 80plus, you might just be marketing fluff now, but
the firmware situation for amd is a shit show in general
It is a pretty well known fact that you shouldn't be maxing out your psu or even be anywhere close to it
Also there is absolutely nothing wrong with Corsair, they sell quality products, could care less if they are rebranded or not
I didn't want to flame here but I am a Corsair fanboy
with a system that has 700W peak load, you aren't even close to maxing out a 750W PSU...
they could sell dried poop and I'd buy it
and never did i say that the PSUs that corsair sells are bad
ouch, so far so good for the systems I've built
unless memory testing is lying to me on this current build
pff corsair simps
There is still much to be desired from them.
Tho, I have to admit, I have their kbd and mouse pad.
well they are a bit overpriced to be fair
the point was, that i wouldn't trust their marketing which has the goal to maximize profit
but you know, rgb ๐ต
Only corsair product I've bought is an M65 mouse, and it's built like a tank
otherwise they would just redirect you to seasonic ๐
That would be very very uncomfortable and wouldn't recommend it to anyone
only problem I have with m65 is the middle mouse button, but I swear I kill middle mouse button on every mouse I touch
I hate middle mouse button
I'd be a little wary of having only 50w overhead. I try to stick with 100+ but it shouldn't really cause any issues if it's a higher rated psu
50w headroom is too close for my comfort
yea, you claimed it was their engineers ๐
it's a $3000 system, why cut it that close
I've only broken the thumb "sniper" button on it, still functions, just loose thanks to deathgrip
Middle mouse button is abomination by design.
yeah he brought up what you said and said you had no facts laura
nah, i just like the rational choice
๐ฟ
alright, you gonna ping me tomorrow with the statement of the corsair engineer
with a good source that he/she is engineer, too
efficiency curves almost always only start at 20% load ๐ญ
Never had issues with their PSUs, in my main pc is a 1000w and in another pc is 850w I believe, and had one before these from them too
actually was really annoying for my lower power server
it could idle at ~12W, but thanks to my psu efficiency it's 16W ๐
at least we can all agree that whatever wattage you get, don't skimp on quality
can we skip to the fight to the death part?
rip tank
Sudden market for golden capacitors.
you joke, but these gold plated HDMI cables are super high fidelity
unlike my parents in their marriage
yea, because we all know that gold is the best conducting material ever
the process already wanted to die
obviously, linux is the best conducting material smh
It is on linux after all
no u
Linux is made by loose hackers, OpenBSD rules
who needs an OS anyway
that's why it costs more money, because it moves the bits so cleanly
tomcat is always a nightmare though
what a horrible server design
well cept rpm and yum
yeet it
aaaaaand conversation is back to systemd
there's an amazon linux distro?
I once had to use linux on a friend's pc, it felt like a disgrace to humanity
yeah, it's... I mean it's a Linux distro
every time a new MS distro surfaces in the news I'm gripped with interest
and it's always pretty boring
i love command line interfaces. feeds into my love for ease of use, reading, writing, typing
eh
this notion is related to the conversation because linux is known to use the terminal lots
that is true, for real uses of linux
unlike desktops
Laura has entered the chat to mention the oom killer some more
windows PS is cool and all but like anything windows its a major PITA to recall or use any command with how esoteric it all is
WSL enters the chat
I am really mixed on powershell
don't get me wrong i love windows
I'm always in shock that there is someone who actually likes linux
I like the idea of linux, the implementation(s) though...
PowerShell is (a) not as bad as cmd, but (b) insanely designed
it's not that bad, windows is just a lot more convenient
what kills linux for me is that there are few games and major software available.
linux aint that horrible.. its even good for normal people stuff
what kills me is that it requires me to tinker for it to work
the only thing that breaks gaming on linux is mostly anti cheat systems
I spent a friggin decade trying to make that work
which are designed for windows
I'm done, my time is too valuable
That sounds an awful lot like apple talk
programmers/comp sci/regular sci people love linux because 1. its FOSS. and 2. there's lots of utility for writing code among other things
windows talk
desktop Linux user no more
c'mon you guys always have time for a restart after update ๐
it does it automatically when it knows I'm sleeping and restores my apps (mostly kind of) when I get back
it's actually fine
wut
that's surprising
PowerShell has some nice thingies, but ultimately that blue background - kills it
and why would bash not be wayyyy better
Also hate anything to do with command lines including git
My dyslexic brain is not happy with those, having to double check it 5 times to make sure I actually typed in what I wanted to
in modern windows, windows terminal is in charge of that, and it's not blue
you need an attitude of learning. anything can be learned and linux is no different. heck it aint even that difficult. most things in it are very simple. troubleshooting in linux i much easier. like if a package install fails you'll receive a detailed and relevant error message. i recall back in the day receiving errors about missing DLL's. my stupid young self thought "Oh ok so lets just go grab said DLL from the web". learned thats a quick way to compromise your PC. windows can be really difficult to troubleshoot. because nobody outside MS has access to the source.
I have built kernels, done basic kernel development, built distributions, spent a decade plus in Linux and in the FOSS community, I know what it takes
I'm just tired of that crap
fair enough
used to despise Windows
now you can rip it from my cold dead hands
the most frustrating thing about desktop Linux is that in many ways it has gone backwards
oO
that the days of x11 were actually better than the half built nature of Wayland, even if it is clearly a superior design
you arent forced to use wayland
heh
many modern distros still use x11
of course not
Frankly, Windows sucks not less. It has better stuff because they put more money in just one OS.
android feels to me like windows with mallware
just like you don't need to use systemd...
I'm tired of fixing bullshit like screwing up my Languages each time there is an update.
this is perhaps the only circle of developers ive met who actually despises linux and is in favor of windows lmao. it would be a gaggle of game devs too xD
Considering the linux vs ms game markets tells you why
It tells you who lobbies drivers.
If it was not muh GPU runs on Win
Macs too btw
game dev is my hobby. My day job is web/cloud/linux sysadmin/services etc etc
now i understand why you use windows at home ๐
exactly
after 2 years as admin/software dev i sold my pc
Sick of looking at it all the time lol
back in my cs years there were only really either mac or windows users
idk why i ever went to get a new one
yea lots of people dont like bringing work to home
yeah desktop linux really feels like a young person's game. Someone who is just learning about linux and wants to really envelop themselves in it
But after awhile, that stops being the priority
not like I don't use, and absolutely advocate for using Linux in the server/embedded/mobile space
i agree with you that many distros look like some apple guy wanted to do a linux thing
even though Microsoft is kicking a lot of butt in those areas more and more
but you can still have the same experience as 20 years ago ๐ (which is weird and good at the same time)
yeah, i can still boot up Slackware 10
the very first linux distro i ever used
now thats some fun
(i might be wrong on the version number its been a looong time)
my first try on linux was suse 5.2 which came with a 5cm thick book
but i still couldn't get the ps2 mouse setup in x11
so i gave up on that for a while ๐
that is a supreme frustration
oh hey patriotic
yeah the cost isnt that bad, in perspective
nope you are right
KDE 4 was going to be amazing
kde and peak in one sentence...
and it still is some day
i actually worked on Slicker for a time, which was a card-based UI redesign project for KDE
but it got shut down hard when Plasma development really took off
fact is.. if you are renting servers... linux wil be cheaper
and then they scrapped all of Slicker's ideas and never finished anything
we had shippable code
lol, the site is still up kind of? https://slicker.sourceforge.io/info.php
Slicker is a desktop enhancement for KDE, providing an alternative for Kicker
Now... KDE is student's work, at least some apps for it.
so is gnome by default
idk what happened to the nautilus team.... but it wasn't something good
or maybe it was and they shifted priorities
Anyways, off to bed
Have to get up early... At 6pm...
I need to get a life
Finally, something nice to hear.
i allready got up today... it was hard
Try sideways.
slackers is life
my slackers success story for the day: possibly solving the crash that one person was seeing when placing foliage in a worldpartition map. To be fair I didn't do much
will hopefully hear back tomorrow
i wont forget the time an oracle exec engaged with me on LinkedIn about current events politics. freaking d***head. tagged some PhD lady who also worked there like she'd somehow defeat me in said discussion. lmao. i've excellent debate skills.
sorry was just thinking about coffee
classic american stuff
you a tea drinker?
wasn't talking about coffee lol
ok
more about random political discussions on linkedin
heh. no. ive stopped that... makes me look bad. not thati care too much about what those on LI think of me
i straight up dont care for regular engineering jobs. i love my major but i dont want to do it every day.
id rather write game code
People really have political discussions on a work oriented (ish) site like LI? smh
Like people don't get enough of that literally everywhere else
only the acceptable politics (liberal) are allowed there. same as at unity.
dont get me started
lmao
I won't, my politics are limited to banging my head against code
Not all tbf but yeah it is pretty rampant
pff... liberals
You used linkedin?
the concept of using linkedin for anything other than posting your resume or whatever is baffling
and yet every time i open it up, there are people posting
Why!?
because social media gonna do it's thing
or rather, if you give people a "social media" interface on a thing, they will facebook on it
without fail
what is the act of "Facebooking" as you say
Exactly. It may just be that I came up on the 90's internet, but the amount that people share online is crazy
Like, yeah, I'm a hypocrite because I'm literally talking on social media right now, but it's not tied to my name, face, etc...
social media-ing, people love it
and here you are ๐
and it probably hurts them and society more than anything else but I don't think any of them care
chat programs aren't social media
oh realy
unless Facebook is also IRC
is communicating social?
so talking to someone is social media?
gonna disagree on that one lol, it's not the same as stuff like FB, but it definitely is social media
do words mean things?
the very first social media site: the campfire the neanderthals gathered around before language truly took off
you must be pretty salty to be bringing that back up, heh
IMHO social media/online discussions should never be moderated. its free speech. if the supreme court says hate speech isn't a crime...why do we need all these silly rules? let people manage their relations themselves. spam is the exception to some degree
let people manage their relations themselves
Sooooooooo, moderate the discussions?
America invented the internet. it may be international today. but it wasnt always.
that wasn't the point though
you do not get to tell me whether my argument is valid. if you're so adamant about it prove me wrong. why is that not the point?
you're free to make your own social network/chat/whatever
i can tell you whether you missed the mark or not. the point was that laws of one particular jurisdiction may not equally apply to every other jurisdiction in the entire world
im not sure why i might do such a thing
so that you can do a hate speech
if thats what you want to do, there are places for that
that really is not the point of what i said.
IMHO social media/online discussions should never be moderated. its free speech. if the supreme court says hate speech isn't a crime...why do we need all these silly rules? let people manage their relations themselves. spam is the exception to some degree
oh my bad
you do not get to tell me whether my argument is valid.
eh what
the important part which i see youve failed to extrapolate is the comparison. if hate speech is reprehensible (it is) yet it is still free speech. why do we need these ridiculous rules?
did i get blocked lol
im very attention grabbing
haha, apparently im not gotta work on that
an understatement but yes
sooo triggered. super duper triggered. lmao
anyway, this is far less interesting than talking about linux
The proof is self-evident
no good gentoo gifs, i see
it's not really an interesting conversation if you have to fallback to: you salty
whatever you say bud
not to mention those aren't "debate skills" either
there's definitely salt happening here, but its not Laura
HAHA ok
you can't boast about something that isn't there, especially if people are gonna rebut that claim
you best be taking notes
fair. he found it in like a few minutes with stomp allocator, which was encouraging to me for my random stomps
you all have in the past ten minutes failed to rebut anything ive said and have resorted to casual insults, lmao. what a win.
what insults?
in denial are we?
@zinc matrix i think this is getting a bit out of hand, take a breather, there's no need to get into arguments here, we can talk about game dev ๐
lmao ok bud i think you're the one who needs a breather
ughhhh
some of you have never felt so strongly as to be willing to take a bullet for what you believe and it shows. go drink your tea
strong claim w/o any evidence im not a brit either
the real ironic part is that while vecherka and laura are definitely goading you on, im just sitting here
and yet the vitriole flies at me anyway
i have things to do. have a fantastic day
you're sitting to close
lol
every time I see 1 blocked message it's this same guy shitposting and arguing lol
so you've met them
somehow all the other trolls have left the server but he's still hanging here
ive never seen someone so upset by so little
is he explaining how racism is ok because it's freedom of speech again?
more or less
i wasnt about to actually engage that
what does this look like, a debate server
@sand oxide I mean come on it's obviously a sad white guy
i do wonder if they are west coast US, where its 2:30AM, and they have things to do, or if its east coast (5:30AM), and this was just their coffee argument
time doesn't matter if there's a debate to be had
...i bet they were canadian
sorry?
yo, joining in here, why should social media not be moderated
it's literally owned by a company
you own your house right, do you allow anything in your house just cause of freedom
can I take a shit in your living room?
๐ข
america is free country after all
Get in line
why always the shooting though
Dieter you're gonna be flagged by the automod again
automod should not exist for free speech ๐
it's a figure of speech
I'm genuinely interested in their views though
i feel like there's a different discord where you two can fully explore each other...'s viewpoints
not often I get the chance to talk to patriot freedom people
#lounge encapsulates the whole world
sadly true
i think
at least until a mod says otherwise
i will say it was a bit ironic that all that effort went into arguing against censorship that didnt happen. Free speech by the way is an invariant of the relationship between a citizen and their government
it has nothing to do with random chat rooms
they love to pretend like its some kind of universal rule, that free speech means we have to listen to them
I pretty heavily support free speech, but to say anything you want without someone showing you the door isn't realistic
In pre-internet days, the door was a fist or worse, now it's just a ban in most cases
you can say what you want, but if you call will smith's wife bald, he will still slap you in the face
throwback Thursday damn
and yes, if tank can still be Tuesday tank, I'm still claiming it's Thursday
made me panic that it was actually thursday there for a sec
in Kiritimati the workday would be over already ๐
Only if you werent procrastinating
Welcome to friday!
ayyyyyyy
but you're one day closer to death ๐
Yes
you have a point ๐ฅณ
it's not working where are my triangles
rip gone
you scared them off
by the way, nanite has fully stopped stomping me as best I can tell but it clearly leaks vram for every model I do a nanite build for
well let's be real, it must have never been stomping me
I made the mistake of telling my manager I was running out of work
now I have 3 extra bugs assigned to me
๐ญ
rip
its character building
character building to not say you are running out of work
the stupid thing is we also do time tracking for some reason
so then Ineed something to log my time under
without seeming sus
you really need to work slower
