We don't get them cheap

CPUs nor GPUs

[proper sundial]

whats the price for amd 7 3700x new

[thin turtle]

it's ironic that nvidia has the better price

[proper sundial]

this is mid thingy which is best for everything lemme get an idea from this

[thin turtle]

I don't think I'll find that at all

[proper sundial]

why

[thin turtle]

I never seen it listed in shops I deal with

[proper sundial]

its a real good cpu and cheap

like less than 200 now

usd

[thin turtle]

That's a lot

[proper sundial]

what are you expecting?

[thin turtle]

Enough to buy you a 14600k

[proper sundial]

yea thats true

[thin turtle]

They go for 180 usd here

I bet it will better than a ryzen 7 from god knows what year

[proper sundial]

well 14 gen and 3 gen so ofc 14 gen win

also its intel

cant doubt on its reliability

[snow rover]

a 3700x should be 50 bucks max

not 200

[proper sundial]

well the market doesn't work on your thoughts

I think i9 14900k should be 50 bucks boom next day 50 bucks!!

@thin turtleso what budget you guys keep for a good gaming plus work pcs or laptops?

[thin turtle]

I don't do laptops

[proper sundial]

pc then

[snow rover]

literally all of the used 3700x locally are much closer to 50 than 100 usd

and why wouldn't they be, given that a brand new 5700x is 140

[thin turtle]

But for the context of an engineering student, in an ideal case. Something close to my pc specs.

[proper sundial]

give me the number

[thin turtle]

Hol up

[thin turtle]

A grand

More or less

[proper sundial]

thats good

wait

[thin turtle]

Yeah

[proper sundial]

grand

[thin turtle]

But not much can afford it hehe

[thin turtle]

$1000

[proper sundial]

oh ok

I just got confused for a sec

thats really good

$1000 is just a beginning so its good

we can get a beast having 5 series gpu and latest gen cpu in under $2.5k here

[thin turtle]

Yeah same

[proper sundial]

many people spend way too much on cases which increases the budget unnecessarily I rather buy more storage of that price

by doing that only I got 15TB+

[thin turtle]

That's a lot of data unc

[proper sundial]

its just a lot of games from 2000s to this year

[thin turtle]

I vacant case is good, but here they are kinda on the same price range

[proper sundial]

my memories

[thin turtle]

90~

[proper sundial]

yea that

[proper sundial]

I keep a budget of case under $120

[thin turtle]

Premium stuff

[proper sundial]

is it too much?

[thin turtle]

Idk

[proper sundial]

that decent

I made plenty cases

in this range people are happy

[thin turtle]

I never seen something listed for that much

Maybe I deal with the brokie dealers

[proper sundial]

whats your range

oh less

[thin turtle]

They know the market

They barely cross the 100

[proper sundial]

but the quality is good if you drop it from a floor only the glass break

and some of them you can get that unbreakable glass

[thin turtle]

Most of the cases here are darkflash or something like that

No one really buys the premium cases

[proper sundial]

well we have plenty manufactures so you can order custom

[thin turtle]

Omg

I like my case to be featureless

A black box

[proper sundial]

like the nzxt

[thin turtle]

Yeah these

[proper sundial]

too expensive

[thin turtle]

Yeah

Unjustified prices

[proper sundial]

our manufacturers make the same in way less price

[proper sundial]

cause of too much branding

[thin turtle]

Arctic products have more aesthetic appeal tbh

I like how they do the non rgb stuff

[proper sundial]

tell this case price

[thin turtle]

And the prices are reasonable for the performance

[proper sundial]

like give a guess

[thin turtle]

100

Or less

[proper sundial]

its 45

[thin turtle]

Good price

[proper sundial]

yep

cause of no export taxes

[thin turtle]

It doesn't have bottom intake

[proper sundial]

made in the country itself not too much branding

[proper sundial]

well it mid tower not needed it has mesh upside

so no airflow problem

[thin turtle]

I see

But if you have my type of build

[proper sundial]

I removed all its fans and customized in my own way

[thin turtle]

It becomes a problem

[proper sundial]

like what

[thin turtle]

Here

The issue is the arctic AIO is too thick to fit on top

It bump in the ram

[proper sundial]

you know I had the same problem that I didnt fit liquid cooler in this one cause of less space

[thin turtle]

And no bottom intake

The gpu will choke

[hardy tangle]

Jag har redan köpt Hitman 2 Expansion och trodde jag köpte hela Hitman 2. Kan jag få en återbetalning eller rabatt på standard access pass?

[proper sundial]

am still sticking on just stock cooler and its good

[thin turtle]

Always buy the WoA version friend

And only English

[hardy tangle]

Yea sorry

[thin turtle]

And use #other-games so you get a good help

[hardy tangle]

I just wasted 10 euros guys

[thin turtle]

I'm sorry to hear 😔

[thin turtle]

It isn't good enough when it comes to hot CPUs though

[proper sundial]

well amd 7 stock cooler is really good and am shocked too

[hardy tangle]

Chill guys

Ima delete it

[cold elbow]

It's about how power efficiency the cpu is...

[proper sundial]

I forced install those 2 upside fans my airflow is just amazing in this

[snow rover]

great picture

[thin turtle]

You got them fancy wireless fans

[proper sundial]

also I keep the glass off

[thin turtle]

Why is your case naked

[proper sundial]

better airflow

[thin turtle]

Cheating

[snow rover]

hmm

[thin turtle]

That's why the stock cooler works

[proper sundial]

it was this

too lazy to take a new one so cropped

also hating those lights now

[thin turtle]

Is that Tommy Vercity

[proper sundial]

ig

yes

[thin turtle]

Aka the mod

[proper sundial]

wallpaper engine gave me that

[thin turtle]

Tommy Wercity

[thin turtle]

Fancy stuff

[proper sundial]

you wanna know how this started

[thin turtle]

You paid for wallpapers man

We usually steal these

[proper sundial]

it was 2 bucks

[thin turtle]

Oof

This would make me starve

Yk what else is 2 buck

[stone apex]

I hate WE because it requires steam to be always starting up.

I mean like no?

[thin turtle]

A whole hitman game

Imagine

You could've been 2 dollars richer by now

[proper sundial]

am a millionaire irl

[thin turtle]

Same

[proper sundial]

well steam should be on though

[thin turtle]

I'm a zillionaire

[proper sundial]

look at this sick setup

it was a ig $150 something

a decade ago

this monitor died 2 years ago

[stone apex]

For?

[proper sundial]

games

[thin turtle]

Rip in peace

[proper sundial]

my father has the cpu and its working though

[stone apex]

Most games I'm playing has own launchers, or in EGS.

[proper sundial]

cause its intel

[stone apex]

Ain't turning on steam on startup.

[thin turtle]

Nice

[proper sundial]

well I play on steam though specially pubg pc and it really need steam on

[proper sundial]

what gaming chair you guys have there

like brand

[thin turtle]

I have a nameless office chair

[proper sundial]

I had this one in that $150 setup

[thin turtle]

I can't get the fps boost from gaming chairs

[proper sundial]

[thin turtle]

No

[proper sundial]

[thin turtle]

Too many sweats in the pc community

[proper sundial]

[thin turtle]

You are the nicest victim

I hope we ransom you again

[civic cloud]

[proper sundial]

My country is listed among the top 3 ||scamming countries not that am proud of || so you must know that cheque is fake

[thin turtle]

That's so inhumane

[proper sundial]

[thin turtle]

I want a refund

[proper sundial]

Now that we have your bank details your personal info let's discuss business

[thin turtle]

Joke's on you ☺️

That's a dummy account we stole from a random dude

But the real business is the PCIe cable I ordered for my powersupply

How do I test if it's compatible

[proper sundial]

It's very easy

[thin turtle]

Tell me

[proper sundial]

Just plug in and it's universal what you wanna test?

[thin turtle]

[proper sundial]

It's universal pal

[thin turtle]

This man has fried a gpu before

[proper sundial]

No need to worry

[proper sundial]

Cause it was cheap maybe

I mean the build quality

[thin turtle]

Even manufacturer say it isn't

[proper sundial]

Elaborate me in dm what psu and cable you got

[thin turtle]

Let's talk here so we get the fact checkers involved

I love to get fact checked

[proper sundial]

Ok tell the psu and cable

Well you're talking with the expert so don't worry

[thin turtle]

The PSU is: Coolermaster V750 gold v2 rated for 750W

The cable I got is an extra PCIe cable, it has 6+2 pins on the GPU side

So the oem is gonna charge me 30€ in shipping fees only

I bought a third party claimed compatible for the model I got

[proper sundial]

You're getting that cable for way too high price pal and when you got your psu they give you extra too

[thin turtle]

They gave me 2 in the box

I want 3

[proper sundial]

You just have to check that the quality the build is good enough to hold 850w you'll feel it cable shouldn't be too hard not too lose it should be medium and braided

[proper sundial]

You burned one? And you still got a spare?

[thin turtle]

The original one's aren't braided though

[proper sundial]

That's so cheap of CM then

[thin turtle]

No, the GPU has a 3x8 input

[proper sundial]

I always use the braided ones

[thin turtle]

I'm now using 2 cables with one being split

[proper sundial]

One goes in motherboard 12v and one goes to your gpu

[thin turtle]

It doesn't matter that much

[proper sundial]

Yes if cable build quality is good

[thin turtle]

What matters is connectivity and quality of the pins

[proper sundial]

Yes

[thin turtle]

The braides are for bending wear

[proper sundial]

Show the cables you got

[thin turtle]

It doesn't happen that frequently

[proper sundial]

I can smell the quality

[thin turtle]

Or you mean I take them out

[proper sundial]

No I can see it it looks good decent quality

So you need these?

Or the 12v?

[proper sundial]

These are the old ones though which cm gave you

[thin turtle]

See here

This cable is split

[proper sundial]

The splitter

Ok got it

[thin turtle]

This can be problematic in some contexts

[thin turtle]

They didn't hehe

The main issue is CM are always bad at shipping, they don't cover worldwide

[proper sundial]

You must have got the 1+1

But you need 2+1

[thin turtle]

Even Americans complain about it

[thin turtle]

What I have now is a cable that comes from the power supply side and then splits into 2 heads

[proper sundial]

But you need 3 head

[thin turtle]

No

I need 3 from the power supply

[proper sundial]

You got plenty space there though you can plug it you need 3 head here we call it 2+1 for your gpu and rtx 3060 we get 1+1

[thin turtle]

Now we have 2 coming from the power supply and 4 at the GPU side

But if we use a spliter, it cause an increase in power draw

The GPU is an RTX3080

The rated power is 340W iirc

So that can get buffed if I don't use 3 separate cables from the power supply side for 3 inputs in the GPU side

[proper sundial]

Well I just looked up you can get a single set too

[thin turtle]

Yeah

But CM are that bad at it

They don't ship extra cables unless you pay a huge fee

Unreasonable

[proper sundial]

We just have to see the wire quality here the mouth will fit we got plenty space there

[thin turtle]

And it seems like the only spare parts deposit is in Europe

[thin turtle]

Sometimes the mouth has different order of connectors though

The thing that can cause components to get fried

The PCIe cables are not standardised unfortunately

[proper sundial]

Alright did the whole research you just get 3 8 pins or 6+2 x3 to your 3 pcie slot it won't give you any heat

Now tell me what you ordered

[proper sundial]

Also in your case we'll avoid using the splitter cause people had issues not getting the required power cause of that

We'll just put 8 or 6+2 x3 cable to our pcie slot

And I suggest 6+2 or 8 only

No 4+4

Even if you get a 6+2 with 6+2 splitter you just use the 6+2 and leave the splitter out and use other 2 main

I hope you can understand this

[proper sundial]

We got 5 8 pcie slots at back we'll be using 3 and 1 only

3 gpu 1 motherboard

[civic cloud]

[thin turtle]

I ordered one 6+2 cable

I have 2 from the box

[thin turtle]

Yes I do

I appreciate you

[thin turtle]

[sick hazel]

why do u have 3 cables

[quaint helm]

old gpu comes in 3x 8 pin

old higher tiers one

[quaint helm]

wait a min....is splitter even trustable? wont it melt?

[lost fossil]

no

[sick hazel]

oh i see

mine only has 2 and ive only ever seen 2 so i got confused

mb

[thin turtle]

No, but it is less stable than 3 cables

would be cool if you could get it for a bit cheaper without fans bc these fans are scheisse

[snow rover]

[proper sundial]

Why vsauce

[thin turtle]

Michael here

[thin turtle]

Anything beyond an i5 is overkill when it comes to gaming

Even for 4090 or whatever

But

8 cores processors are still good for other stuff

[quaint helm]

enough for spotify

[quaint helm]

look so awful

[thin turtle]

That's why intel are so generous with their 20 CORES

Or 20 Threads I don't remember

[quaint helm]

they will be more generous for ultra 300s

[thin turtle]

Oh yeah I can run Spotify and Apple music at the same time

Apple can't really make a good product at all

Recently I found out that apple music is very taxing on CPU and Ram

[proper sundial]

I don't see

[thin turtle]

Why does it need all that

I had games crash

Then I wondered if it was the music app

And it was

For windows

its just that it has the most variety in my opinion, and with one subscription, you have both youtube and youtube music premium

[late gorge]

true, but I dont think the avrage deviced used to play back the audio (speaker / headphone) is that high quality to playback that small difference between high quality and lossless

choose your CPU first, your chipset choice won't be anywhere near as important as it or your motherboard's featureset

7700 is a weird one

Buy whichever board has the features you want then. You'd likely have a chipset preference beforehand if your usecase needed the 4 extra lanes and PCIe 5.0

i'll throw this out here
i have a bunch of g915's, want to add new
i could add g915x lightspeed but what are other potential options with things that matter

• full size, short travel keys - tactile / linear options

• shine through dspbt as standard with spares readily available

• wired + non lagasaurus garbage wireless (e.g. these dont apply as choices here but e.g. nuphy air and lofree flow are two of what i would call hot garbage in everyday use, oh and keychron too)

• assignable rotary encoder

• dedicated transport controls a definite plus

• macro keys a definite plus

• individual clown lights a plus but not a requirement

[thin turtle]

Turn ignore suggested limits on
MSAA to highest or second highest depends on your framerate preference
The rest you can choose either very high or ultra

[quaint helm]

oleg is jealous as always frfr

[thin turtle]

Then when you're satisfied with the framerate, try to set framescale to 1.5

Will give you extra sharpness, but it can be taxing on fps

I have some experience with mice

There's a big difference

[cosmic moss]

g502 is the only mouse youll ever need

[thin turtle]

Pfft

[cosmic moss]

my tire when i run over something sh4rp

[quaint helm]

yeah faster shut those hater's mouth

[thin turtle]

I love your consistent press of 4

I respect you for it

[cosmic moss]

ty

[thin turtle]

Yk there was these cool looking keyboards that I wanted to have

[cosmic moss]

im used to leet spe4k so its e4sy

[thin turtle]

They come in pink and cyan I believe

[cosmic moss]

which

[thin turtle]

I don't remember the name

[cosmic moss]

bruh

[thin turtle]

It had round keys

So fancy

[cosmic moss]

wtf

[thin turtle]

But maybe you'll find knock offs for now

When they were first revealed it was the coolest thing ever

I just wanted to buy

I didn't even have a PC

Nor a laptop

[thin turtle]

I think it was called Lofree DOT

But the new design seems off

https://youtu.be/lALbVhoUQ64?si=_NTCivJfHO-_XGVx

This might be it

And OMG he looks so young here lmao

[steel sentinel]

someone asks vague question gets answers
i post exact reqs, tumbleweeds

[snow rover]

well yes

you want something that doesn't exist

also that lofree dot is one of the ugliest keyboards i've ever seen

[steel sentinel]

so there are no competitors anywhere near the g915x
i haven't done a ton of research but i find that hard to believe
or are these chinese keyboards all fotm

[snow rover]

if keychron wireless is not good enough then you have to get the gaming brand stuff

[steel sentinel]

main problem is the bt
i have keychrons, i have lofree, i have nuphy, they're all garbage tier when it comes to not acting like a wired keyboard in terms of always-responsive

(like bolt/lightspeed does)

[snow rover]

[steel sentinel]

...which is why i previously standardised on the G915

The G915 isn't problem free tho, there's some deformation of the case after a while in some units and also the keycaps wear alarmingly quick (which the G915X dspbt should slow but still), so i've had to laser cut keytop stickers to stop wear and that was a GIANT pain to stick onto all my 915's (I have well over ten) and when they've worn you can't buy spare keycaps which is ridiculous

and now I'm building more PC's I'm wondering whether to just add G915X's + spare, or whether there's something actually better

[snow rover]

how many fucking keyboards do you need

[steel sentinel]

a lot

[snow rover]

why

[steel sentinel]

i'm adding 4 new pc's

to my existing stash but I may also start replacing some of the original G915's as well

[snow rover]

i genuinely do not understand what your use case is

[civic cloud]

did you know that you can only one PC at a time and that PCs can do a lot of things at the same time

[steel sentinel]

home home /home work separation

gaming / game stuff dev pc's (built), on separate networks
light-use workstations (Lenovo P8's)
heavy lifting workstations (Lenovo PX's, HP Z8's)
other macs
etc

[quaint helm]

u know u can just make one workstation right and just 1 gpu is require 💀

like a threadripper 32 or 64 cores is enough lol 💀 and maybe a 4090 for task bcus of the amount of vrams

[steel sentinel]

my situation isn't as brokeass as that
and i need to meaningfully separate some of my stuff

therefore the need for separate keyboards as well

the 4 pc's i'll be adding will for example be on a physically separate LAN with separate internet

[snow rover]

maybe my autism isn't severe enough but i truly do not understand how that could be the most convenient or efficient solution

i have 4 computers and i feel like that's massively overkill and stupid and i should sell this depreciating hardware

[quaint helm]

might as well just use these and 1 desktop = 1 display solve the thing 💀 maybe a 256core TR.P will do the job

[steel sentinel]

oh man it so often isnt
but i do it becasue mostly i have to in specific scenarios

or because it's a good idea

for example take game modding, i colab with ppl that i get on well with but who i also totally don't trust, and writing malware may be their day job
for that sort of thing it's not just separate pc's, it's a whole other thing
also work from home is completely separate
i have multiple networks that dont touch each other because of reasons like this and also job

and then there's the macs on my normal home network which I prefer to use for regular stuffs since I'm a total Apple hostage

either way i'm just asking for a keeb pointer lol

[snow rover]

in what world is separate hardware a better solution than virtualization for that stuff

[steel sentinel]

write malware and get back to me on that one

lol

[snow rover]

if you're seriously concerned about people writing malware that will escape your vm for reason x you need to loosen your tinfoil hat i think

[steel sentinel]

also other physical reasons tbh

[steel sentinel]

workwise i have other ppl to wear the tinfoil hat and that's why i have a completely separate setup
i already explained about the gaming-adjunct sitch

[civic cloud]

i dont see why the light use workstations and heavy lifting workstations need to be seperate...you could achieve the same thing with 3 PCs, (1 gaming, 1 heavy lifting and another 1 heavy lifting for the paranoid things)

[quaint helm]

power n heat issue i believe for heavy ones

[steel sentinel]

it's my wallet to do what works best even if that isn't necesarily the most convenient (my home stuff is very convenient however) and i'll bet I have far more experience than most here in that respect

ANYWAY

keeb pointerfrom my original post plz if you have it
otherwise just tell me it doesn't exist
i'll ask around elsewhere and if the answer is the same i'll just get G915X Lightspeeds

[snow rover]

it doesn't exist

[steel sentinel]

oki

i shall carry on the search for a bit more than prolly end up buying G915X's if everyone else is like that
But I just want something new after like years of the keeb being out I find it hard to believe there isn't something definitively better

oh well

[quaint helm]

tbh if u serious about ur question why not ask some discord server about workstation heavy load stuff lmao 💀 instead u chose gta online's tech channel which just everyday use tech stuff

[civic cloud]

just because you have experience, doesnt mean you cant run into suboptimal solutions. thats why companies often hire outside consultants

to get an outside perspective

[steel sentinel]

yes, cos i was asking about a fricken gaming keyboard
i'm absolutely not asking about any system advice in places like this

shoot me for answering irrelevant questions being asked, why dont you

[arctic quail]

Anyone can help me fix my ps4 controller? I took it apart to clean the plastic parts and now it’s not turning on nor emitting any light

[rapid lake]

You probably tore some wire somewhere

[snow rover]

with that description nobody is going to be able to help you

either you broke an smd somewhere or something is not connected

[arctic quail]

Yeah I’m here to answer any further questions, all cables are connected and no cable seems broken

[snow rover]

a picture is worth a thousand words

[arctic quail]

Maybe I’ve hit a bus but I ain’t sure

[rapid lake]

I think all cables on the controller would be soldered so I really wouldn’t bother trying to fix it

[snow rover]

are the cables reversible?

[arctic quail]

What pic u need?

[snow rover]

like some ribbon cables can be plugged in backwards without issue but they won't work

honestly no idea what to look for as i have no idea what the inside of a ps4 controller looks like

any pic is better than no pic

[lost fossil]

i remember how on one of my older ds4 cunt rollers one of the ribbon cables got frayed at the end

it was a real hassle to put it in properly

[lost fossil]

they're folded in a specific way so it would be difficult to plug them in the other way around

[arctic quail]

Idk what pic to send, I’ve been trying angles for the past 3 minutes

[fast sand]

but like i dont want windows to begin with, thats why i switched to linux to begin with

[round grove]

u dont have to use it at all
its only purpuse is that game

[arctic quail]

Maybe it’s the small thingy that takes the power from the usb-micro, even if I plugged it in alone it’s not showing any light

This thing here

[snow rover]

that's probably not indicative of anything

[arctic quail]

Yeah, when it’s plugged it shows an orange light which comes from the small white led on the bottom

[fast sand]

yeah i know that. but i still want to be on linux. so is there a way to play online through a vm?

[round grove]

there is a way, but i cant say how to do it and /or how safe it is

since it is still a vm and not a real mashine

[fast sand]

awh

[snow rover]

the only vm that works without a cat and mouse game is hyper-v

[thin turtle]

@cold elbow you're a HVAC engineer right?

I have a design problem

[civic cloud]

We all have problems

[thin turtle]

You don't

Ventilation vs AC Problem:

Let’s say you have a room with two devices running at the same time:

An exhaust fan installed at the ceiling

An air conditioner (AC) installed lower down

The initial temperature inside the room is 40°C, and the outside air is 30°C. The room isn’t perfectly sealed, so air can enter through small openings (like under the door or through cracks).

If both the exhaust fan and the AC are turned on at the same time, at what point does the exhaust fan start having a negative effect on the cooling process?

In other words:
When does the exhaust fan stop helping and start working against the AC?

AI enhanced for readability

Potato @cold elbow

[civic cloud]

???? I do

[snow rover]

immediately

[thin turtle]

Why

[thin turtle]

Proof?

Wouldn't the exhaust fan displacing the hot air be useful?

[snow rover]

because exhausting the indoor air that is being conditioned raises the humidity (presumably) which reduces the air conditioner cop

[thin turtle]

[cold elbow]

Your AC job is cooling the air so once it starts dropping temperatures below ambient the fan will work against it... because it will pull the cold air out

[thin turtle]

Tyty

[civic cloud]

I caught a cold and need to study for my exam on Saturday

[thin turtle]

No summer break?

[civic cloud]

I'm not 12

[nova steppe]

I feel like the AI you used to "enhance" the readability could have answered this for you

[thin turtle]

I am not either

[thin turtle]

I like to have an expert insight

AI is just a smartass

It will leave details out

And it did

[nova steppe]

"What happens if I suck all the air I just made colder out of my room?"

[thin turtle]

[civic cloud]

Ok so I got an exam on Saturday and can't study cuz I'm sick

Now fix my problem

[snow rover]

what actually was the ai answer

[thin turtle]

Have lemon with honey

[civic cloud]

:(

[nova steppe]

You can be on discord sick but can't study?

[cold elbow]

In some applications like hospitals we use full fresh air hvac units

They get air from outside, cool it and filter it then feed it to the space

[nova steppe]

[cold elbow]

And there are units with some fresh air like 15% - 30%

[thin turtle]

Similar to potato answer

And your answer reflects experience

The Ai didn't mention humidity

[nova steppe]

It doesn't need to

[thin turtle]

Anyway, thanks

[thin turtle]

Y knot

[nova steppe]

Because you didn't ask it to consider that

[thin turtle]

All knowing machine fails to know

[nova steppe]

All thinking human brain fails to think

[thin turtle]

I never knew humidity was that harmful to AC

I live in a desert

Never saw it happen

[nova steppe]

It's not that it's "harmful," it's that the relative humidity will drop when you use air conditioning

[thin turtle]

I see

[snow rover]

higher humidity is harmful because more energy is used to dehumidify the air rather than cool it

[thin turtle]

Why does it need to do that though

[cold elbow]

Because

Potato is Good.

[thin turtle]

[snow rover]

that's kind of what the "conditioning" in air conditioning is

[nova steppe]

[thin turtle]

Conditioned for breathing

[mystic solar]

alright then

[thin turtle]

Is this a roast

[nova steppe]

Is this a boast

[civic cloud]

Yes because I'm laying in bed with my phone for discord and I have to sit at my desk with my pc for info and tablet for writing for studying

[nova steppe]

Use phone for info and tablet for writing in bed

[thin turtle]

[thin turtle]

Oh

Vibrations ?

[civic cloud]

that's a part yes

[thin turtle]

I wish I studied detailed courses

These courses are just hard and carry no value

[civic cloud]

Start a masters course

[thin turtle]

You doing masters?

[nova steppe]

I mean, I can connect a mouse and keyboard to my phone, it's just screen size that's the problem.
And if your desk is in your bedroom and within view, just use the monitor from a distance

Improvise. Adapt. Overcome.

[civic cloud]

Yeah Master of Engineering

[thin turtle]

Master gauss

[civic cloud]

Bro I'm blind and the phone screen is tiny

[thin turtle]

I'm a mere bachelors learner

[civic cloud]

One day

[thin turtle]

Yeah ☺️

How does it feel to study masters in engineering?

Do you think it is worth?

Or you're trying to get into academics?

[civic cloud]

Feel? Shit, I'd rather be silly and do other things
Worth? Yes because I'm sticking to govt jobs which require a master's degree for the higher paid positions

[thin turtle]

Lovely

I heard many people say that a masters in engineering adds little value unless one is trying to get into academics

But I don't see any value in bachelors while masters course handle detailed stuff

That's why I'm here tbh

[civic cloud]

All the people from the company we work with have M Sc or M Eng

[thin turtle]

Nice

Then I will pursue masters

[civic cloud]

Anyway govt positions are paid by this table, normal highschool degree gets you A1-A9, Bachelor A9 to A13 and masters A13 and above

With the normal progress I'd reach A13 at 30-35yrs old

[thin turtle]

Yeah we have a similar system

[civic cloud]

Which in turn means I'd have no meaningful pay increase for 30 years after that

[thin turtle]

The highest rank is for ministers and "important people"

[snow rover]

what is your approximate income tax rate if you're making 5k a month

[thin turtle]

Here?

[civic cloud]

They have a different table with B1 to B11

[thin turtle]

[civic cloud]

about 4k after tax -300 for private health insurance, depends on other factors like if you're married and if you have kids, then you get a bonus

[thin turtle]

We recently got income taxes implemented

[civic cloud]

Keep in mind the tax rate is different for govt employees because they just pay you less in the first place

[thin turtle]

Just when I'm about to make bread

[civic cloud]

[snow rover]

man fuck i should move to switzerland

[civic cloud]

You should tax billionaires instead of bread

fym switzerland

[thin turtle]

[snow rover]

[civic cloud]

I'm German 💀

[snow rover]

could be making 10k a month and paying basically nothing in taxes

[thin turtle]

These get tax breaks

Brake

Idk

[civic cloud]

of course they do

[civic cloud]

They are mad cunty and not every job will suddenly make you 10k a month

[snow rover]

i have marketable skills

unlike most people

[civic cloud]

What's stopping you from landing a higher paid job in your own country

[snow rover]

nothing but i don't really feel like paying over 50% income taxes

[civic cloud]

ok

so instead of getting a higher paid job, youd rather stick to your current job because you want to pay less tax

Sounds logical

[snow rover]

basically when you start going much above 5k/mo, how much you keep after taxes is pretty miserable

i don't want more responsibility for like 500 more per month after tax

[civic cloud]

ok and

[snow rover]

i should move to a tax haven and work less make more while doing so

[civic cloud]

Tax Havens only exist for rich people dude

[snow rover]

foiled again

[civic cloud]

You will always be on the loser end as an employee

Anyway

Lemme rephrase: they won’t restrict my card considering that I’ve used it all over the place and they damm well know the security precautions that I take

Is 56cm width enough for a desk

Two monitor setup (one 27 inch curved, one 25inch)

Keyboard, mouse, PC, etc…

[civic cloud]

Do you mean depth or actually width?

[rapid lake]

Think 2d

[civic cloud]

Hell nah dude

Do you know how little 56cm are?

[rapid lake]

Imagine a 56cm thick desk

[civic cloud]

huh

[rapid lake]

?

[rapid lake]

Yeah I’m saying, imagine 2d the top of the table

Length and width

[cold elbow]

Might be a lol cramped

[civic cloud]

56cm isn't enough

[cold elbow]

Because curved take a lil extra depth

[rapid lake]

How much I need

[civic cloud]

A single 27" monitor is already ~60cm wide

[rapid lake]

Thing is my mousepad is 40cm

So it’s gonna take up most of that space

[rapid lake]

How

[civic cloud]

100cm will be cramped, 140/160cm is standard size, 180cm is the biggest you can get for a reasonable mainstream desk

[rapid lake]

I think you misunderstood what I meant

[civic cloud]

mf that's why I made the drawing and asked if you meant depth

[rapid lake]

Omfg

Yea I mean depth

[civic cloud]

Yeah 56cm will do

[rapid lake]

Where have you ever seen a desk that’s 56cm thick 💀

[civic cloud]

160x60 is a normal size, I like 180x80 because I usually eat at my desk and then move the keyboard to the end

[civic cloud]

?????

Thickness of the plate is usually at 1.6cm - 4cm

[rapid lake]

Yeah

56 should do then

[civic cloud]

Yes

[rapid lake]

I have 16cm for the monitors to not be touching the mousepad

[civic cloud]

You can free up lots of space by getting a monitor arm

[rapid lake]

Hmm true

Do I need two

Or can I get one that supports two

[civic cloud]

Two monitor arms? There's monitor arms for two monitors

[civic cloud]

Yes

3 or 4 as well

[rapid lake]

Yeah that’d be nice

I want them to be aligned

[civic cloud]

The cheap ones for like 40-60€ do a good enough job at aligning

[rapid lake]

Oh

I thought they were $100+ minumum

[civic cloud]

The fancy ones yeah

[rapid lake]

Do they come with clamps or am I gonna have to mount on the wall

[rapid lake]

Nice

[civic cloud]

They are annoying to adjust, so you will have to stick to one position

[rapid lake]

Yeah that’s fine

[civic cloud]

These are easy to adjust on the fly, but they are pricey

[rapid lake]

Only instance I might want to move them is if I get a sim racing setup and keep it on the other side of the desk

[rapid lake]

Yeah that’s like more expensive than my monitor lmao
