[sharp idol]

Oh sorry 😅

[teal nimbus]

is it hard to learn how to code or does it just take time >

[quartz kayak]

Is that a trick question

[brave field]

coding is easy

making usable programs with any type of complexity can be annoying

[jovial tide]

@snow rover smart sir, do you know any good budget mics (preferably below €125) that don't pick up too much background noise like keyboard & breathing? Not planning on using a boom-arm and my current mic broke

pls 🙏

[snow rover]

at2020

idk there are probably better value chinese whatever brand ones nowadays

[jovial tide]

I had nzxt's capsule mini before

but it's cutting me off and crackling within 2 months

[snow rover]

gaming brands making audio equipment that isn't good?

color me surprised

[jovial tide]

it has 0 noise suppression so Krisp is mandatory but it's not free & nvidia broadcast is ass

[jovial tide]

it's pretty old though, does that matter much at all?

[snow rover]

of course not

the sennheiser hd 600 are coming on 30 years old and they're still the favorite cheap headphones

[jovial tide]

just surprises me how something older than me is still relevant

[snow rover]

wait i just realized you said no boom arm

why

[jovial tide]

I move a lot

I can't take a boom arm with me

[snow rover]

can you stop

[jovial tide]

wdym

[snow rover]

not move

[jovial tide]

when I move out sure

[quartz kayak]

Warranty?

[jovial tide]

yea, returning it tomorrow

I got warranty

but I'm not getting the same one

[quartz kayak]

[jovial tide]

I just want one with good noise suppression

[quartz kayak]

I have no idea about mics since i dont rlly use them

But i heard some razer ones are good

[jovial tide]

eh

heard razer breaks fast idk

[quartz kayak]

But also razers quality in the us is wayy worst than in europe

[quartz kayak]

Yeah idk what razer is doing there

[jovial tide]

that doesn't make any sense

[jovial tide]

I'm in europe

[quartz kayak]

Hmm

I ve never broken anything from razer

[jovial tide]

all the "best budget mic" videos really aren't helpful at all

[jovial tide]

thing is, I stuff everything into my bag

[quartz kayak]

[jovial tide]

multiple times a week

[quartz kayak]

What was ur budget again?

[jovial tide]

around €125

could be a little higher maybe

[snow rover]

a good mic doesn't have noise suppression

[quartz kayak]

Cant he get some rlly good 2nd hand mics with that budget

[jovial tide]

but all software is terrible

[snow rover]

sure

[quartz kayak]

Like podcast level microphone

I think dankpods made a video about that

[jovial tide]

ain't no one wanting to hear my keyboard

[snow rover]

Billie eilish has recorded songs on the at2020

it's good enough for discording

[jovial tide]

discord has build in krisp which is nice

but in game vc's I got 0 noise suppression

[snow rover]

just get a good sounding keyboard and everyone will want to hear it

[jovial tide]

I play on laptop

and mic is to the left of my laptop

next to the exhaust & keyboard

[snow rover]

ok so

that's bad

[jovial tide]

everyone is annoyed asf by it every time

so need a good mic

[snow rover]

boom arm and shock mount is what you need

[quartz kayak]

I searched rq on the used market and found ashure sm7s for around 150€

Your opinion cora?

[jovial tide]

mics are a pain

[snow rover]

no cheap interface will have enough gain while staying free of background noise for an sm7b

[quartz kayak]

Just stay quiet!

[jovial tide]

that's not really how vc's work 😭

[quartz kayak]

Idk then

Go with coras take bcs hes smarter than me

[snow rover]

you aren't going to get good sound with a mic next to your laptop on the desk

that's just a given

[jovial tide]

I could put a mic like a feet to the left of my head instead

that works

[quartz kayak]

[charred otter]

hyperx cloud 2s

wait not headset

nvm

[lost fossil]

idk about good but i have an nw-700 combo from amazon for $25 that came with a shock mount and an arm and noone ever told me that my mic is bad

it's certainly good for discord

i looked at the initial request and my mic certainly doesn't fit that criteria it picks up everything

but that's what all condenser mics do (cheap ones especially) (from what i've read, anyway)

[lost fossil]

i ordered these to replace a type b port in my goxlr, am i in for a bad time or will it be almost as easy as a drop in replacement?

[snow rover]

how is the original port wired

[lost fossil]

it doesn't look like anyone ever showed that on the internet

[teal nimbus]

agreed

[lost fossil]

what is there to agree on

[quartz kayak]

Nova launcher updated and the update too the custom icons off all my apps

[snow rover]

ok and

[quartz kayak]

To put them all back on the apps

It ll take like

2 hours

Bcs you gotta do it individually on some apps

[civic cloud]

Truly a hard life you're living

[lost fossil]

thankfully google doesn't let me update or even install paid apps that i bought

so my nova launcher doesn't update

[civic cloud]

Is that because of sanctions or because Google is a dickhead

[quartz kayak]

Grrrr

I actually dont mind it so much

Bcs

Theres new cool features i dont know about

Always nice to see

[civic cloud]

:D

[quartz kayak]

Im so rich.

[lost fossil]

[exotic patrol]

I still disconnect

[quartz kayak]

Contact samsung say the device is doing that

They ll give you a new one.

[exotic patrol]

I already did it before but they couldn't help

They wanted me to send some logs and said that my router was probably causing it

[quartz kayak]

Then they could help

[quartz kayak]

Ohh mama miaa

[exotic patrol]

https://youtube.com/shorts/ofe7dhggFG0

What does it automatically change

[lost fossil]

short answer - auto overclock the gpu a tiniest bit

long answer - higher power draw, more heat in the room, 1 fps more frames per second

stop watching that channel, comfy

i feel weird even having to say that

[snow rover]

stop watching youtube shorts

[lost fossil]

it's a good dust protection sleeve

[wary pawn]

But that case is near a road or something

[exotic patrol]

Definitely

I put don't recommend the channel 2 times it still pops up

But why make these waste of time videos

Do people actually fall for that stuff

[lost fossil]

yes because it appears well made

key word is "appears"

[exotic patrol]

How is it well made

Its literally a 10 second video with "how to fix ur pc" without any explaination

Just adjust these settings and go

It's quite lazy

Even anyone can figure that out

[lost fossil]

did you not notice the key word?

[exotic patrol]

I did notice it but even then

First time seeing this happen in a server

[exotic patrol]

Stop crying

[exotic patrol]

Is there anyway to turn off these Microsoft ads

[quartz kayak]

Yes

Instal linus

[exotic patrol]

I don't even have a PC

[quartz kayak]

Linux

Isntal

[quartz kayak]

Just wait until you find out you can instal on pretty much anything that has a screen

[exotic patrol]

Lol

[quartz kayak]

I saw

A guy on tiktok

That ran a minecraft server on his phone

And it was actually good

How future proof is this

[lost fossil]

well android is linux after all

[exotic patrol]

Ye

[lost fossil]

buy one of these small mini pcs

[quartz kayak]

Do not buy a pc.

[exotic patrol]

I'd rather buy an actual good pc

[quartz kayak]

Wow thats racist

Small pcs can be good

[lost fossil]

buy an actual good pc

[quartz kayak]

As a small person i feel really sad rn

[exotic patrol]

In 2 years

[lost fossil]

https://youtu.be/XOzpgq3JToI

[exotic patrol]

I think they can play games but are they futureproof

[lost fossil]

depends on what you want to do with them

gaming - not really, but the cpu is real good

i mean i have a 6600m as you know and it's also real good

[exotic patrol]

Hmm

[lost fossil]

maybe not for gta 6 with full raytracing but it's alright

[exotic patrol]

Is it easily upgradable

[lost fossil]

no, it's a mini pc

[exotic patrol]

Right

[lost fossil]

ram and storage are upgradeable i think, still watching

[exotic patrol]

Ram and storage is upgradable on most things

[lost fossil]

[exotic patrol]

Obviously except them

They can't sell you 200$ per 2gb if they don't do that

[quartz kayak]

[lost fossil]

reminds me of that one time i flexed on some of my classmates when i brought a galaxy s2 with a windows 95 on it to school

i totally didnt follow a thorough guide

[exotic patrol]

OMG oreo with his windows 95 mobile!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? How could it be!!!!!! On the S2!!!!!

[quartz kayak]

Fish have you ever used DeX

[rose yacht]

there is an app i saw on the pcmr subreddit

let me see if i can find it rq

[quartz kayak]

Yeah its cool

[exotic patrol]

Does it work using miracast

[quartz kayak]

What is that

[exotic patrol]

Normal screen mirroring

Or wireless rather

[quartz kayak]

If it works on the phone it probably works on dex aswell

No idea how it would look like though

Dex is basically just

google knows all for sure, knows about our lives, our interests, our friends etc...

[lost fossil]

sometimes we think we know alot but we dont. we cant be google.
so what you're trying to say is that comfy should go to google with generic questions instead of posting them here without context?

My discord keeps crashing after updating any suggestions

[wary pawn]

Android? Tried deleting data and cache for Discord?

[exotic patrol]

Ye

[wary pawn]

Uninstalled and reinstalled too?

[exotic patrol]

It's the new canary patch

Had to reinstall to get out of the crash loop

[lilac heath]

Are u using any older version of discord?

[exotic patrol]

No that's just the latest alpha build having a major bug

[exotic patrol]

Replying to you makes me crash

Let me just revert

[lilac heath]

Yeah use previous version then

[exotic patrol]

[lilac heath]

Use stable version

hmmmm

It was the hardware acceleration setting

crashes out my monitor for some reason

[acoustic badge]

try turn off then

[jovial tide]

did that

[acoustic badge]

im not sure

[acoustic badge]

but try off since cuase of crash due hardwere accerelartion

[jovial tide]

can't turn it off

[acoustic badge]

connection issue ? since us not corrupted issue since in goggle

[jovial tide]

haven't found the setting anywhere

No it's a hardware issue

well

software probably

but not internet

The biggest problem in that photo is the green label CX PSU

this mouse be pretty light rn

think below 60 grams

could be more like 55g

[brave field]

What weights roughly 50g-60g or so, for the americans in the chat?

[civic arch]

no idea

its like an small egg

or 2 AA batterys

or like 50 bills

or 10 nickels

[charred otter]

A 50g gold bar

Idk fr fr probably like my wallet is around that?

does gta run good on ryzen 5 7600/x

probably gonna get the 7600x cuz its the same price

and i got a cooler that has am5 mounting

just comes with no cooler

[lost fossil]

on one hand we have comfy who always confuses discord with google and posts his google queries here
on the other we have santa claus who tries to help by googling things

we need to have them both in the channel at the same time

[civic arch]

i tried finding info on this

most time its single player only

or all the time basically

im more interested in how online runs

no one benchmarks online fps

[lost fossil]

private session - about 4/5 of the claimed fps, maybe

public session - about half, or maybe even less

[civic arch]

with a 10th gen i5 im lucky to get 60

on low settings

ryzen 5 7600x is like 2x the single core performance

of my current cpu

looking up ram compatibly is pain

probably g.skill trident z cl30 6000mhz

and asus tuf gaming mobo

[lilac heath]

Online is cpu intensive

[exotic patrol]

My Google queries are way more than here

[civic cloud]

I barely got to 60 in full sessions with 3900XT and 3080🤡 such a shit game

man, 3080 is already almost 4 years old, what the fuck

3080 is still good

its still a good performer

my 7800xt is only like bit faster

not a good pairing for a i5 tho

[civic arch]

you could get for 2x msrp

damn gpu shortages

They keep using server name in every sentence i dont know how to stop them lmao

[brave field]

what bots?

[empty cape]

This server

Like trevor

We used trevor and kicked him because he didnt want to stop

Now i cant stop this dude keep saying #LiftedZone

@brave field ?

[brave field]

I've never seen anything on Discord that says APP next to it, sorry

[empty cape]

What about modmail?

[brave field]

huh

I guess I've been filling the squircle in with BOT mentally

Well, how did they get in the server? Are these some AI character feature, or something you invited from a normal bot website?

[empty cape]

Yeah its ai characters

I did ask him once to say that but he dont want to stop now lmao

I triwnd stopping him with same question i made him saying that but his responses are negative to that lol

Bruh

This is better i guess....

[brave field]

#LiftedZone that does look better

[junior flax]

Hey. CCseksi #liftedzone that does look better

[civic arch]

solid picks ?

7500f is basically a 7600 with no igpu

45€ less is worth it to me

you can just oc it back to 7600 levels even if it has -100mhz clock stock

they included honey too

[civic arch]

i think i have mx6

the cooler came with some but a friend had leftover paste

65w tdp chip and i get 60c when gaming

fan speed is maxed at 400 rpm

[lilac heath]

Colgate motherboard

[quartz kayak]

What the fuck

[civic arch]

still no integrated io shield

i would buy that

[lilac heath]

[civic arch]

i just noticed a potential

issue

the mobo i chose the pcie is kinda low

and my thick ass gpu might be sad

nothing that an angle grinder cant fix

[nova steppe]

Do you mean there's a problem with the case? The sizing is standardised, so unless it (the case) is just literally too small, there shouldn't be an issue

[civic arch]

i think the first pcie slot meant for gpu is not the top slot

my gpu is like 3 slots

stock shroud was around 14-15mm and new fans are 30mm

stock thickness was 50mm

could so some pixel counting ig

[nova steppe]

[lost fossil]

there is obviously enough space

[nova steppe]

The slot counts refer to how many slots are taken up an the back of the case, lol

Oh

I didn't see who I was replying to

[lost fossil]

[civic arch]

my current mobo

look at the pcie slot and mounting hole

also this is the clearance

i mean the top gpu starts from slot 3

in the case

[cold elbow]

Maybe because u have a giant ass 120 fan strapped to your gpu

[civic arch]

not that big

[cold elbow]

That's what she said 😩

[civic arch]

😔😔😔

i will probably cut the psu shroud to away

i will get like 3cm clearance

and you wont see it that mich

[cold elbow]

These fans can suck air from a black hole

Don't worry about them

Also p12 fans

[civic arch]

i measured and the fans will have at most 5mm clearance

hopefully the case wont fall apart if i cut the shroud

[sharp idol]

Just get a bigger case

[civic arch]

the gpu clearance spots did not help the structural integrity

[lost fossil]

if you want to guarantee the pcie slot to be in the first position then you'll have better luck with a mini itx mobo

[cold elbow]

How about

U get

Slim

Fans

[lost fossil]

t30 is like 2 slim fans

call it 2 for the price of 1

[cold elbow]

There are p12 slim

[civic arch]

25mm

its kinda hard to find a good case for matx

and a gpu thats 33cm long

[cold elbow]

Remove the m from matx

Your issues solved

[civic arch]

just build it on a cardboard box 😔

this case is worthless so grinding it away wont hurt

[lost fossil]

just don't do that with parts still installed

[civic arch]

just get an reciprocating saw

ez job

i will probably remove all stuff when i switch mobo

so i can clean all the dust

i have not washed my cpu cooler in a year

i dont really case for the look of my pc

pretty sketch looking but the cables aint half bad imo

[exotic patrol]

How is this possible https://youtu.be/Ucb0XNw53SA

It looks exactly like windows 7

[civic cloud]

as far as i know wni11 and co are still based on older win versions (like 7)

thats why sometimes window style changes to 7 when a prgram hard crashes (looking at you, adobe acrobat reader)

[lost fossil]

scrolling on discord is very efficient

[civic cloud]

oui

[lapis haven]

wha..

[lapis haven]

may be an absurd idea but i'd use a gpu riser and mount the gpu elsewhere

i like weird lookin' builds

mount like this

[civic cloud]

so like everyone else with a gpu riser?

[lapis haven]

but it seems your cpu cooler will block

[lost fossil]

his case is not big enough to fit a vertical mount

[lapis haven]

yea

man thats a giant cpu cooler

what a stress is being forced on the joints connecting to the mobo
i'd compensate for the weight to remove the stress by using a ziptie at the outer most point of the cooler and carefully attach it somewhere at the top of the case to pull it up just a very little.

[exotic patrol]

Epic fail

[lapis haven]

i have some other weird ways on my mind gus, you dont wanna know it

[civic cloud]

Show me

[lapis haven]

no im not gonna intentionally make myself your laughingstock gus

THE MASSES DEMAND TO SEE

[rose yacht]

the title hasnt been updated yet

maybe a good idea if i ever buy a atx case with a matx mobo

[civic arch]

atleast it gets low temps and no noise

being a big ass gpu

[sacred loom]

Ey can i get a vertical monitor suggestion? My main monitor is Gigabyte M27Q-X

Preferably wide screen

[cold elbow]

Are you asking for a monitor stand?

Also

Guys which gang you belong to?

[lost fossil]

i am both

[cold elbow]

Hi both 🪿

[lost fossil]

hi melong

[arctic yarrow]

I am currently water cooling gang, but will change over to air cooling if I build a completely new system.

[lost fossil]

i remember having a water cooling, then it died and i got a air cooling on short notice

then my cpu ran at 91c in games

[cold elbow]

With the new arctic freezer 3 u can even replace the pump lol

Im not sure if they sell that separately

But definitely makes it easier for them to repair

[lost fossil]

well as i said multiple times over the years it wasn't the pump that died in my aio that time

after fixing it up, i sold it to my fren for dirt cheap and he's still using it

although the coolant was pink and now it's brown i think... i told him about it but he aint care

i am certain i added more antifreeze than recommended tho

[civic cloud]

Silly oleg

[lost fossil]

no but more antifreeze means less corrosion

the recipe is 1 ethylene glycol to 3 distilled water

antifreeze is roughly half ethylene glycol so i did half antifreeze half distilled water and then added some more antifreeze

[civic cloud]

Just do all antifreeze

it's too viscous for aio pumps

[civic cloud]

🥺

Get a stronger pump

[lost fossil]

nana my business anymore anyway

i haven't had that cooler in possession for over 2 years

[civic cloud]

are you an air cooling peasant these days?

[lost fossil]

no

[civic cloud]

slay

[lost fossil]

i am both

[civic cloud]

uwu

[lapis haven]

you have the right to remain silent mister gus, anything you say can and will be held against you in the court of law

[lapis haven]

ill go with the all dry gang

[cold elbow]

Just fill it with vodka

[lost fossil]

they forgot to install the cooler in the bottom right

[lapis haven]

imo the screws that hold the cooler should be tightened using a torque meter to equally distribute the pressure

[civic cloud]

You think I'm scared? I stand by what I say

[lapis haven]

you stand by saying 'uwu' all the time?

[civic cloud]

yes :3

You can't stop me

[lapis haven]

you're lucky gus, be happy cuz i aint mod

[cold elbow]

Only if they include it in the box

[nova steppe]

Right

[lapis haven]

yea, i know not everyone has a torque meter, im just imagining the scientifically ideal situation.

even with a torque meter, the weight of those huge coolers will disrupt the equation when held vertically, so

[cold elbow]

I think most of them have a stop when u screw them so a torque meter is not gonna contribute much?
Spring mechanism is usually what matters most

Also the screws torque sequences

[lapis haven]

hmmm, is that the case then, i never had one so in that case, yea torque meter is useless

[lost fossil]

like amd? it was for the socket tho

[civic cloud]

hehehe >:)

[civic cloud]

Hello tech enthusiasts, I'm happy to announce that I have procured a new monitor :D aka the only monitor that makes sense if you don't swim in money (LG GP850 B)

Totally unrelated question, does anyone want to buy a used 1080p 144hz 27" Monitor from AOC?

[sharp idol]

Got two of them already

[lost fossil]

get 3rd

[cold elbow]

Ship for me and pay for shipping

Best deal u can get

[civic cloud]

I can ship to you if you pay for the monitor + a service fee that is coincidentally the same as the shipping fee 🤝

[cold elbow]

Pass

[civic cloud]

rude

Give your 2nd monitor an upgrade

someone said third?

my workplace, not my house

[cold elbow]

Actually yeah

Why dont u use 3 monitors @civic cloud

[fervent granite]

single monitor gang

but only because no one makes a monitor with everything I’m looking for

[sharp idol]

Got a 3rd ofc but it's a 34"

Hardly use it though I prefer VR now for that sort of gameplay

[civic cloud]

Don't need a third (and no space)

[civic cloud]

Samsung Odyssey G9🤝

[fervent granite]

Ultra wide bad

Not 4k ❌
Not 27” ❌
Not oled ❌

[civic cloud]

4K at 27" is kinda stupid but there's Def monitors with those specs

[cold elbow]

Doesn't cost 5000$

[fervent granite]

I mean yeah but I’m also not looking for a tv basically it just needs to be around that size

Also pretty much all monitors compromise on one of those things like low refresh rate or they’re curved displays

[civic cloud]

https://www.gigabyte.com/Monitor/AORUS-FO32U2#kf

Took me like a minute to find one

[fervent granite]

[civic cloud]

Yes?

The correct response would be "thank you Gus"

[fervent granite]

already sold my kidney for 4090 gotta recover first lol

[civic cloud]

Price wasn't a requirement

[fervent granite]

thank you gus, very cool!

[civic cloud]

🤝

Happy to help xo

also considering your requirements you will always end up in that price range for the next years

You could save a lot if you go down to 1440p

[fervent granite]

yeah 1440 is actually fine but with my gpu it probably wants to work a little bit harder

[civic cloud]

so what

I got a 3080 and mostly play old strategy games

[silver vessel]

[arctic yarrow]

No wonder I'm running out of space on my C drive

This log file is taking 200gb of storage

[charred otter]

so now that im officially done with college after today (other than graduation) im starting to go through my laptop and get rid of a lot of junk that i just kept on there cuz i was strictly using it for school. is any of this useful?

[arctic yarrow]

HP computer right?

[charred otter]

ye

well hp laptop

but same thing

[arctic yarrow]

IG you could get rid of One Agent, but everything else seems to take minimal space.

[civic arch]

how do i know if a mobo supports bios update with no cpiu

[arctic yarrow]

I'd find the user manual for your motherboard.

[fervent granite]

I usually do a clean windows install and then install the drivers manually

that way I'm left with clean system without 0 bloat

you can always get your utilities if you want but you likely won't need them

[charred otter]

i would consider that but i dont really wanna go through the hassle of getting everything back

[civic arch]

supports bios flashback

idk if thats the same

[arctic yarrow]

When in doubt, assume a CPU is required.

Or contact support for that manufacturer and ask.

[exotic patrol]

Better consumer friendly choice

Except when they take 50 years to reply

[arctic yarrow]

Live chat may be an option. Usually you don't need to wait more than 5 minutes for a response.

[exotic patrol]

I like how my notifications recommended me to set a timer for a 5 minutes just because you mentioned it

[civic arch]

or a bot

live chat is really good for trolling

it has an option for like a camera

but you dont need one

[exotic patrol]

I remember once

A really long time ago

I was using an azure vm or something

I contacted the official Microsoft support

It said the guy had no experience and was added I think on the same day

Anyway he ended up chatting with me and not actually doing anything but for some reason he started downloading tlauncher

He suddenly disconnected and I never knew what happened to him

[lost fossil]

look at the back and see if any usb port has bios flashback printed next to it (or similar) or if the port has a white "rim" around it

[civic arch]

its has something like that

its the msi mag something b650m

mortar

it looks similar to the lower end msi board that had the same button

i could find a video on how to do it

[lost fossil]

you need to look it up in the manual bc the process is different everywhere

[civic arch]

when changing mobo cpu ram should i re install windows?

to avoid it breaking

i have a second 256gb nvme i dont use

will probably install windows on it

then my 1tb drive is for games

[lost fossil]

not mandatory but recommended

i didn't reinstall after upgrading from intel to amd in 2018 and from amd to intel (another pc) in 2023

[civic arch]

might be just easier to do that

than fight the issues it could casue

cause

[lost fossil]

i had no issues

[exotic patrol]

Just use rufus and you won't have to worry about any of the annoying things

[civic arch]

rufus?

[exotic patrol]

But it's not nessecary

[civic arch]

i used balenaetcher for that

[exotic patrol]

It makes a bootable USB but it allows you to make a local account and bypass most of the OOBE as well as TPM checks etc and is way faster than Microsoft's media creation tool

[civic arch]

idk if i should go to win11

no idea if i got the tpm thing tho

[lost fossil]

if you're gonna reinstall then might as well install 11 since 10 is gonna be reaching end of life real soon

[civic arch]

i heard pro will still be supported

[snow rover]

10 ltsc

[civic arch]

[civic cloud]

(Thanks landlord)

The building infront of us have not one but two fiber cabinets

[fervent granite]

it should tell you on your manufacturer's website

you can also check it in windows by going into security processor details in the windows security app, as long as it says spec version 2.0 you're good

[lapis haven]

been hunting this nasty bug since morning
always return failure even if everything's fine!

and it's a paid module! thats hilarious

[lapis haven]

thanks for killing my time, reckless devs

[sharp idol]

That's not a bug, it's working as its expected

[lapis haven]

no its not

the response should be checked, it returned false no matter what curl returned

[lapis haven]

this is the fixed one

or

[lapis haven]

i could swap the true and false returns here

this is a mobile login module, the issue was that when a user entered their phone number to login, they'd get the OTP code, but at the same time an error message was thrown at them too!

[shy bridge]

anyone ever use 2 screens? and can I not put my higher spec one to a higher fps? or is it limited

turns out the dp adapter i was sold is only capable of 60

[lost fossil]

dp to vga?

[civic arch]

why use adapter

dp to hdmi?

[lapis haven]

did you manage to fix the blank screen or not?

i can read your mind you gave up linux altogether, right?

[arctic yarrow]

Forgive my ignorance of C or C variants, but could you do return $response;?

That was probably a stupid question xD

[lapis haven]

well, no, because curl_exec() returns false if any sort of curl specific error occurs, and if there's no error, it simply returns the response which curl received from the API upon its execution, which is a raw JSON string. here in this specific function we don't care about the response, all we care is to know if no errors happened (checking $response for a false value).

but in most cases we need this JSON response, which we can decode it using the PHP's json_decode(), which turns the JSON into an object so that we can play with it in code.

[arctic yarrow]

OK, makes sense. If it was intended as a set true or false value you could do that though, right?

[lapis haven]

yes ofc, just like C

[lapis haven]

there a point here, if CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER option which in this function is set to true , is set to false, curl_exec() would return whether **true ** or **false ** and in that case we could just return $response just like you said.
but when its set to true, it returns **false **on error or the JSON string on success.

https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.curl-exec.php

[civic arch]

i re instaled t

it was easier

but currently im not using it

i will probably get back to it after i get my new parts

[lapis haven]

hmm nice

[civic arch]

hopefully they arrive this week

probably will take me all day to rebuild cuz i need to cut the psu shroud

[lapis haven]

what are the new parts if you dont mind me ask

[civic arch]

my gpu fans will only have 5mm clearance

ryzen 5 7500f
msi mag mortar b650m
32gb ram

gpu is rx7800

[lapis haven]

hot!

i love AMD

[civic arch]

why

[lapis haven]

just a matter of preference ofc

[nova steppe]

red name peasant

wait...

[civic arch]

good if you use linux

atleast for gpu

[lapis haven]

dam right

[civic arch]

amd just had better pricing here

[lapis haven]

thats one of my reasons

[civic arch]

i could have gotten a 4070 too

but those had shitty cooling

[lapis haven]

besides that, in the CPU realm, it is said (or even proven?) that AMD cpus are more efficient in terms of power management. not sure about their GPUs tho

[arctic yarrow]

The only reason I haven't fully switched to Linux for my main PC is because nvidia makes it a massive pain in the ass.

[civic arch]

my 7800xt uses 250w

i think 4070 is like 200w

amd cpus are more efficient imo

if u compare the ryzen 9 and intel i9

its really obvious difference

this ryzen chip is 10% faster than 13400f

while costing 50€ less

some games its more like 50%

[lapis haven]

thats what im talkin about nvidia is such an aHH when it comes to open-source

[civic arch]

might be better for like utility tasks

the 13400f has 4 e cores too

[arctic yarrow]

Yeah, and it's one of the reasons I'll be going with an AMD GPU when I upgrade.

[civic arch]

i think amd made one dumb thing with am5

why make them compatible with am4 coolers

idk if it matters tho

temps will probably be fine

[arctic yarrow]

Why's that dumb?

[civic arch]

worse thermals cuz of the thick ass ihs

its like 6mm

hopefully my cooler is enough

its a fera 5 dual which cost like 30€

[arctic yarrow]

Shouldn't make a difference IMO

[civic arch]

thermal resistance is higher

with thicker

causes higher temp difference

[arctic yarrow]

I don't think it would be significant.

[civic arch]

like 3-5 degrees

which is probably not a issue

i should have bought a bigger case

these phantek t30s could probably suck air from a black hole tho

[sacred loom]

Does going from 150Mbps to 300 decrease ping?

[lost fossil]

no

[cold elbow]

It just makes the pipe bigger

[lapis haven]

imo ping is heavily depended on physical attributes like distance and quality of the media being used

[lost fossil]

bad quality memes

[lapis haven]

the 'quality of the media' is a rather broad topic and involves many factors

[civic cloud]

But i get 72

Because that router is known for shit and errors

[lost fossil]

when society forces them to

[exotic patrol]

Can't someone just make an ISO that bypasses it from the start up so you never have to worry about it when doing a clean reinstall

[lapis haven]

society... society's beyond hope

you can't hope on a society which feeds from tiktok, instagram and all such crappy medias

[lost fossil]

making and iso won't help with an update that is not yet installed, or even released

and an iso doesn't help those who already have w11 installed

i have no idea i just posted it elsewhere and Oleg said to post it here

so i did

im merely a messenger

[lost fossil]

asus did a big dumb with this one... why would they put a full length slot right under the double triple quadruple gpu

like, they have x1 and x4 there, couldn't they swap x1 and x16 around?

[cold elbow]

Traces

Also risers are a thing

[lost fossil]

but it's only wired for x1 anyway

[cold elbow]

They need some space for m.2 traces and keep in mind most of these are linked to the chipset

[lost fossil]

or they could make the x1 an open end slot

solves all the issues

x4 too

[cold elbow]

U can do that yourself

[lost fossil]

but muh wowranty

[cold elbow]

But again u gonna hit the m.2

[lost fossil]

but there are 3 other slots for an m.2 so nbd

if its really bad i can always boot into linux and delete them

how fast do processors heat up

would it be fine to just lay the heatsink on it and see if it boots

its an intel stock cooler but doubt it matters

with no paste

[lost fossil]

just for that it's fine

[civic arch]

rather not remove all the stuff tho just see i need a new bios

i can remove my gpu and still get picture

but the new cpu has no igpu

[lost fossil]

u should still engage the clips on the cooler so that there's some pressure

[civic arch]

not really possible

its an intel stock cooler and its a am5 processor

doubt it warms up that fast

i just need to get into bios to know it works

[lost fossil]

oh, well

put a couple books on top

[civic arch]

i dont really want to remove my current cooler

i have like barely enough paste for one cpu

[arctic yarrow]

Honestly, for the purpose of testing POST, just laying the heatsink on it is just fine.

[exotic patrol]

@arctic yarrow is the premium PC that you built still running fine

[arctic yarrow]

As far as I'm aware. My uncle is the type to let me know if there's issues

[civic arch]

should i use zero rpm mode?

i just have them always spin at 30%

[lapis haven]

makes sense if the core temp is bellow an specific value, like under 40C

[nova steppe]

Bit late, but no reason to not let them turn off, especially if your case itself has decent cooling. Most GPUs should be able to stay in a perfectly safe temp range as long as there's air over the heatsink.
(and if it didn't, well, the fans would just turn on, duh)

if at 30% fan speed your GPU is at 20c, that's actually fantastic

[sacred loom]

How does the intake and out work on o11

He is using reverse fans btw
