[vagrant crown]

People clean mouse mats?

What are you doing to it that it requires a washing machine clean lol

[snow rover]

using it

[vagrant crown]

I didn’t realise the action of running a mouse back and forth on it makes it that dirty.

[snow rover]

it doesn't

[vagrant crown]

Dusty perhaps from time to time

So what does “using it” mean then lol

[snow rover]

your mouse doesn't move itself

you move it with your arm and hand

which are made of skin

and skin is constantly shedding

[vagrant crown]

I can’t say I’ve ever noticed a build up of dead skin on my mouse mats, maybe I’m using it wrong

[snow rover]

you probably haven't tried to

[vagrant crown]

Still I would’ve thought a wet wipe occasionally would suffice

[snow rover]

your mousepad might look clean but it certainly isn't

[vagrant crown]

Fair, you learn something new everyday

[lost fossil]

just make sure this is not one of the thousand things you forget

[fickle finch]

hi oleg

[lost fossil]

Hello.

[civic cloud]

Bare skin touches material several hours a day => dirt and grease gets onto material

[civic cloud]

Gently scratch over it with your fingernail, if it leaves a differently coloured trail = dirty

Oh there's a video showing what I mean

Very nice

[civic cloud]

Brutally cold answer

[rapid lake]

You feel it

It gets gross after a while

I think I’ll just clean it with vacum cleaner and then wipe it with soapy water

[snow rover]

you cannot succ

[civic cloud]

vacuum cleaner???

[rapid lake]

Yes

[civic cloud]

You're not getting the grease out with a vacuum cleaner dude

[rapid lake]

Hence soapy water

[nova steppe]

If you used a full size one, the brushes would make it look so bad lmao

[rapid lake]

My main concern is the little bits and the cat hair

[civic cloud]

As someone who used to wash my mouse pad in the bathtub... It's annoying

[rapid lake]

My cat loves to sleep on it and occasionally used it to scratch too

[civic cloud]

💀

[rapid lake]

Why bathtub

Put it on a table or something

[rapid lake]

It’s 90x40 I think

Wdym with that though

[nova steppe]

Full size vacuum cleaner. Like for floors

[rapid lake]

We have the small one

But I can’t remember if I actually found it the last time I was looking for it

If I did then I’ll use that

https://www.koolatron.com/cdn/shop/products/401022-ECOM-01.jpg?v=1668703795

Like one of these

I want to buy one of those small leaf blowers when it’s time to clean the case

[stone apex]

I had this in my car. Absolute dogshit❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

It wouldn't suck a single piece of dirt on the carpets.

[lost fossil]

especially when it's a desk pad

i had to use magnets to stick it to the tub so that it doesn't float to the surface

[civic cloud]

Then you get soapy water all over ur desk

[lost fossil]

get a duster that looks like a turbo

[civic cloud]

That's smart

I just put it upside down

[snow rover]

ion have a bathtub

[civic cloud]

Shower or kitchen sink

[nova steppe]

Riiight, if you turn the tub upside down, then the pad can't float away! Genius, if i say so myself

[civic cloud]

bro

[nova steppe]

[rapid lake]

So

Two birds one stone

[civic cloud]

Nah dude

[rapid lake]

I’ll just clean the whole desk

[civic cloud]

@lost fossil this was about you being faster than the other mods

[cold elbow]

This is not a leaf blower

That's a shitty vacuum cleaner

[rapid lake]

I didn't say it was though

[cold elbow]

I mean

It's almost useless

[rapid lake]

nah

you just got a bad one

[cold elbow]

Had one

[rapid lake]

get hoover

[cold elbow]

[rapid lake]

[civic cloud]

It's the old one from my parents

[rapid lake]

[civic cloud]

[rapid lake]

idk why these things cost so much

well the good ones at least

[civic cloud]

Nah they just aren't good with money

[rapid lake]

lmaoo

[cold elbow]

Because they're a scam

[civic cloud]

Don't listen to melon

Robo vacuums are great

[rapid lake]

I wouldn't get one purely because you still have to clean up behind them, though because they do 99% you just get lazy

rather do it all myself properly 😤

[civic cloud]

You don't have to clean up behind it

All I have to do is vacuuming that one corner it can't reach once a month

[cold elbow]

Omggg someone gets it

[rapid lake]

well yes

but imagine looking at that one dirty ass corner for a whole month

that's disgustang

[civic cloud]

It's the corner behind the lamp and bed, it's not visible lol

[rapid lake]

cap

[cold elbow]

Filthy gus

[civic cloud]

Nope

You're behaving like a bit of dust in some non visible corner makes the whole place nasty lol

[cold elbow]

U probably have a lot of corners and places that needs cleaning

That if that robot cleaned anything properly

[civic cloud]

3 corners are blocked by furniture, one is semi blocked by bed+lamp, one is open and clean

[rapid lake]

to be fair

[civic cloud]

Checkmate

[rapid lake]

gus lives in like one room with barely any furniture

[civic cloud]

hater

[rapid lake]

so the robot ain't struggling

[civic cloud]

thank you

It's called studio apartment btw

[rapid lake]

but in a normal house it's not gonna clean well

[civic cloud]

It would just take longer

[rapid lake]

Yes I know

[civic cloud]

Normal run takes 30-45min here

[rapid lake]

the hell

[civic cloud]

The new premium robots are rated up to 300sqm

[rapid lake]

it would take hours then

how big is the studio

[civic cloud]

Maybe, but it doesn't bother you when you're out for work

[civic cloud]

33sqm

[rapid lake]

ah

still though it has to get around a lot more obstacles

[civic cloud]

I mean that depends on how your furniture is set up

[rapid lake]

so

we have 2 living rooms

[civic cloud]

Roberta should get faster once I get the folding bed and the sofa, because there's less vacuum able surface area

[rapid lake]

I'll leave it at that

[civic cloud]

wtf rich

Riiiich

[rapid lake]

we used to have 3

[civic cloud]

I don't want to repeat myself

[rapid lake]

but the third one was meant to be a bedroom

My parents just used to buy too much stuff

[civic cloud]

Oh yeah boomers love buying shit

[rapid lake]

Now I think we haven't bought any furnitrure aside from a little bedroom in about 15 years

Repurposing the wood in my room was an achievement

[rapid lake]

useless shit yes

[cold elbow]

Does it send you notifications when it's stuck?

[rapid lake]

stepbro I'm stuck

[civic cloud]

Probably, but I have notifications muted

[lost fossil]

https://youtu.be/1O8LtMKPuUk?t=517

[civic cloud]

after I raised the desk legs it only gets stuck under the office chair maybe once per quarter

[civic cloud]

Ain't no way I'm sitting through ads to watch whatever that is

how about lapbottoms

[thin turtle]

Literally unhealthy

Today I was working on a poster design with a friend and he brought a laptop as our work station and because all the desktops in that public space were macs for some reason we decided that it would be more convenient to work on an os we were familiar with

Everything about it was awkward

It is small, slow and gives you back pain

Should've learnd the mac os tbh

You either sacrifice your view angle or use the keyboard in an awkward position

Well at least we finished the job

Yall, I am looking for new headphones. I have razer blackshark v2 pro and i want to get something that is good for gaming and has good sound

I have a budget of about 100-200 euro

[snow rover]

sennheiser hd 560s

[quaint helm]

dayum p12 max full speed quite quiet

[lost fossil]

it's because it doesn't move a lot of air compared to delta or sanyo denki

[quaint helm]

the fan material quite solid tbh like theres weight compare to my stock case fan

7 degree diff for gpu after furmark test

[cold elbow]

P12 goes to like 1200 to 1800 rpm

[lost fossil]

and at 1100rpm its big bro sounds like an oppressor mark two

[cold elbow]

I keep them around 950

[quaint helm]

3300 sounds ok tbh imo

[cold elbow]

3300 is too loud

[quaint helm]

not for me

[cold elbow]

U should get some server fans

[quaint helm]

my previous silverstone fan fullspeed is like LOUD af

maybe i will set it to 60% for normal using then 100% for OC

[cold elbow]

Eh

U casually ok with 50 db

[lost fossil]

https://youtu.be/5sKMzSClCkQ

[quaint helm]

im ok with it

[lost fossil]

the wildest part of the video is that he was holding it with his bare hands

no grille on the fan, no nothing

[quaint helm]

i will legit go for it if i have my own room

[cold elbow]

I have a dell server with smol fans that go to 6000 rpm

[quaint helm]

80mm?

[cold elbow]

It's so damn loud

They're smol

[quaint helm]

40mm?

[cold elbow]

The one that fit in a 1U

[quaint helm]

imo i want a pc to feel like ALIVE instead of dead silence

[lost fossil]

why

[cold elbow]

Put on some speakers

Blast music

[cold elbow]

It's how servers like to operate

Full blast for no reason

[lost fossil]

i meant why do you have a dell server

[quaint helm]

60% i cant hear shit LEGIT CANT HEAR SHIT

[cold elbow]

Found it in company server rack

They wanted to use it for some software then abandoned it

[lost fossil]

you can't hear shit so much that you have to raise your voice so that we can hear you saying that

[cold elbow]

I made it the new company NAS server

[lost fossil]

[quaint helm]

[lost fossil]

speaking of company stuff, brought home a dead ups from the other day the batteries were cook, half of them at 5v, other half at 11v

[cold elbow]

That's bad

[lost fossil]

ordered a pack of fresh batteries, hopefully that's all that it was

[cold elbow]

Can it even charge ?

[lost fossil]

wouldn't know until i get them on sunday

[cold elbow]

Wrong answer

U can rewire the decent batteries to give the rated voltage

[lost fossil]

i'm not in the correct answer business

[lost fossil]

are u sure

[quaint helm]

mmm total spent for 3 P12m and a pwm hub = like 45$ ish investment 📈

[cold elbow]

Just for testing

[quaint helm]

why stalk

[cold elbow]

Stalk?

[lost fossil]

it uses 6 1272 batteries in series for 72v output

[quaint helm]

1272 is the storage cap or what

[cold elbow]

So u cant possibly make 72v

By that way of wiring

[lost fossil]

[cold elbow]

I mean

Yeah u need batteries

To test

Some ups use parallel and series to achieve 24v

Didn't expect them to use 6 x 12V cus that's weird

[quaint helm]

wait a min.....why did i plug in argb wire

[civic cloud]

Cuz u dummy?

[quaint helm]

forgotten

[civic cloud]

Heck :(

[quaint helm]

i wonder will the radiator coil/fins or what ever the zigzag metal thing called damage when i wash it with water

[rapid lake]

You want to wash your AIO’s radiator with water?

[civic cloud]

No but it might rust

[quaint helm]

idk but kinda planning to

[rapid lake]

I mean

Why

Get some compressed air or something and blow the dust out

Water won’t clean the dust

[sterile cliff]

Or be an airbender

Always works

[quaint helm]

i dont think stores here sell compressed air

i can say it almost doesnt exist here

[civic cloud]

no that's cheatin

[quaint helm]

how

[rapid lake]

It’s something you find at those hardware stores with so much stuff you can barely see the store owner

[snow rover]

compressed air is such a shitty deal

either buy one of those goofy little dusters or a compressor

and it isn't even air, lying bastards

[quaint helm]

here u will see screws hammer those electronic tools > compressed air

[rapid lake]

Like these places

[quaint helm]

doesnt worth the cost tho

[rapid lake]

I haven’t tried them because I’m afraid it’s gonna spray liquid

[civic cloud]

cheatin by lying to us that it's not available

[rapid lake]

But a compressor is $100+

and requires electricity or gas

[quaint helm]

if those bottle can stuff all i can find is wd-40 and some mechanic lube stuff

[snow rover]

but it has way more uses than a can of air

and cans are like 5 bucks for 1 dusting

[rapid lake]

Oh yeah for sure

[civic cloud]

Get a fan and 3d print a nozzle

[rapid lake]

[quaint helm]

first = own a 3d printer........

[civic cloud]

or have a friend with a 3d printer 🤝

That's free

[rapid lake]

You can go to a Uni with 3d printer

They’ll happily print something for you, for a price

[quaint helm]

wait lemme find nearest hardware shop's website let see whether theres compressed air

30$ for 10oz wtf 💀 (online store incase noobie gauss say i lyin)

[rapid lake]

Pass

I always wondered if this was a thing

[quaint helm]

legit......i aint gonna spend that much just for 1 bottle of compressed air like wtf man

[rapid lake]

Now I know, but idk what I’m gonna do with that information yet

[civic cloud]

Mushroom network truffle E?

[quaint helm]

wait i think i can use those portable fan and blow those dust away

[civic cloud]

Might as well just blow yourself in that case

[quaint helm]

i aint gonna make myself faint bcus lack of oxygen

[rapid lake]

Lets you bond multiple fiber/dsl cable internet into one

Get double the bandwidth

[snow rover]

why would you need multiple for only 850mbps

[rapid lake]

Because

We only have ftth

300mbps down and like 30 mbps up

[snow rover]

ftth good

[rapid lake]

"Only" 850

[snow rover]

that's what you want

[rapid lake]

Do you have 2 gigabit or

[snow rover]

1

[rapid lake]

We don’t even have that

[snow rover]

but you can do 40gbps

without multiple fiber whatevers

[rapid lake]

Coverage is only city and downtown

[rapid lake]

You could

But they only offer 300 mbps

[quaint helm]

only for server use tbh no point for normal pc

[rapid lake]

I don’t think they’re gonna do 1gb anytime soon

First they need to cover the whole country

With ftth

I get 30-50 mbpa

you get paid every month so it makes more sense to give monthly numbers

[rapid lake]

Dude is on a streak to saying the most wild shit ever

[quaint helm]

he should be in the naughty list

[noble gale]

I think it's fraudulent to say you make $x but conveniently ignore taxes. The math I shared includes taxes

[snow rover]

no it isn't...

speaking in net income is completely pointless because taxes aren't a constant

[lost fossil]

they are a constant here

[snow rover]

so everyone pays the same amount of tax, always?

[noble gale]

You pay taxes. How you gon say you make $40,800/yr then turn around and actually pay $33,598.80

[lost fossil]

no, it's 20% of what you make

[snow rover]

i pay taxes but i do not pay the same amount of taxes as another person making the same amount of money as me

[lost fossil]

[rapid lake]

So you get a salary just below the amount where you’d be put in a higher tax bracket + a non-taxeable bonus?

[snow rover]

no

and tax brackets don't work like that

say the income tax is 0% for under 50k/year and 50% for over 50k/year
someone making 51k/year isn't paying 50% of that 51k

they're paying 0% of the 50k and 50% of the 1k

but i cant get a desktop cuz its primarly for uni

[snow rover]

buy ultrabook for studying and a proper dextop for gaming

huge

[rose yacht]

true but i'll be gaming in uni/with friends at their homes

a friend got annoyed that his ultrabook was slow when he tried to do anything else other than code/design and basic web surfing

plus i dont have the space for a desktop

if 4070 = 4060 , 5070 = 5060

i dont think the cat will like to sit under the desk tbh

[rapid lake]

It’s cozy

[civic cloud]

[rapid lake]

Do I put some of that or am I gonna blow something up

[civic cloud]

cant you get some light oil with a quick trip to the hardware store?

[rapid lake]

I’ll see what I can find tomorrow

[civic cloud]

oki :D

[civic cloud]

[rapid lake]

I have some engine oil

It would smell awful though

[thin turtle]

Not even in English

[civic cloud]

the math symbols are the same in any language

[thin turtle]

No

[civic cloud]

Yes?

[thin turtle]

Arabic math is written from right to left

[civic cloud]

I thought you're american

[thin turtle]

I thought so too

[civic cloud]

That's crazy

[thin turtle]

[rapid lake]

But you don’t take math in Arabic do you

[civic cloud]

[ornate river]

His PC will run smoothly

[thin turtle]

is WD-40 flammable?

[ornate river]

Mayyyyyybeeeeeeeeee

[quaint helm]

highly , i played with it b4

[thin turtle]

[civic cloud]

Yes

[cold elbow]

Yeah

What's more flammable is carb cleaner

It's basically fuel that you can use to start kickstart the car

Hello guys, need help, i connected my switch to laptop using video capture device, i opened obs but it is only showing the rainbow screen, i am playing after quite a while on laptop, earlier it used to work fine so i dont know what is the problem now

[rapid lake]

What's a video capture device

[quaint helm]

uk elgato?

[civic cloud]

a device used to caputre on screen footage, commonly used for consoles or to reduce load on PCs

[rapid lake]

did you try another device other than the switch

[quaint helm]

[rapid lake]

check cables, figure out if it's a problem with the switch or the device itself

try capturing different devices

check if maybe that piece of hardware has some software you should update or some drivers you need to install

[quaint helm]

rainbow?

[rapid lake]

I think he means it just shows the default picture when there's no input or something

[quaint helm]

make sure the cable is fit well

[rapid lake]

like TVs do

[icy plover]

I tried connecting the switch to tv so i know there is no problem with switch, i think there is a problem with the capture device itself, i will try connecting other laptop to this laptop

[quaint helm]

switch > capture device > u plug it into hdmi or usb port?

[icy plover]

I docked the the switch, connected the hdmi to capture device, then into usb port

Is there any other app than obs, to access video capture device?

[cold elbow]

I dont think that is the correct way

[icy plover]

It used to work earlier

[cold elbow]

Actually nvm i don't understand what is going on here

[fickle finch]

Lol

[rapid lake]

idk wtf is going on here

how do you connect the switch

[icy plover]

I dock the switch, then connect hdmi both into the dock and the video capture card, then i plug the video capture card into usb port on laptop

[rapid lake]

so the "input" cable is plugged into the dock?

[icy plover]

The hdmi cable is in the dock

The ac adapter is for powering the dock

[rapid lake]

Ohhh I see

I thought the laptop charger was the same cab;e

Did you try a different usb port

[icy plover]

I tried both usb ports

[rapid lake]

so we know the hdmi port on the dock works because you tried on the tv

[icy plover]

Yes

[rapid lake]

but we don't know if there's an issue with the laptop

[icy plover]

It is either the obs settings or the capture card

[rapid lake]

When you connect the capture card into usb does windows recognise it

[icy plover]

How to check it

It shows in obs

[rapid lake]

It usually makes a sound

Oh, right

[icy plover]

It is not making any sound

I tried removing and plugging

[rapid lake]

Long as it's showing up on obs the usb port is working

can you try a different hdmi cable

[icy plover]

I only have this one

[rapid lake]

and a different laptop too

[icy plover]

I can do that

[rapid lake]

the one you have on the tv

try that one

[icy plover]

This is the only hdmi cable i have, it came with the switch

[rapid lake]

dang

[icy plover]

But the cable is working

I tried with tv

[rapid lake]

can you like

see if it shows up on discord if you go to stream

maybe obs is not configured properly

[icy plover]

I will try that

[rapid lake]

although I doubt it because the card is giving input

the rainbow screen whatever that is

[icy plover]

This os how it is showing in obs

In other laptop and discord , it is still not working

I guess the capture card not working

Does the cheap capture cards stop working in a year?

It has been quite a few months since i last used it

I give up

[stark chasm]

buy a new one

[icy plover]

I will not spend another 5$ just for it to stop working after a while

[stark chasm]

Bro isnt 5$ cheap asf

[icy plover]

I aint earning right now, maybe one day when i start earning i wont think much about it

[wispy mesa]

is that output going into your laptop lol

the output should be going into a monitor, the switch might not be seeing a device to output to

[lost fossil]

it better not be connected into an hdmi port on the laptop

also, these chifi capture devices are ass, do not recommend

there's a reason everyone buys elagato or avermedia

[lost fossil]

check the output resolution on your switch dock, the capture device probably can't accept anything higher than 1080p30

or 720p30, god forbid

[quaint helm]

very expensive tho

[lost fossil]

i bought a couple of hagibis usb capture devices off aliexpress some time ago they're somewhat cheap

they can only do 1080 30, however, and you need an hdmi splitter to use it

[icy plover]

I tried this as well, doesnt work

[sterile cliff]

Crisp pixels

[icy plover]

i am really happy to say it has started to work again, and the problem was that 1) i had not plugged the hdmi perfectly in capture card , 2) i changed the fps to 30

I had changed the fps before but it did not work because the hdmi was not properly plugged in
But thanks to everyone who helped me and tried helping me

[nova steppe]

I totally helped

[quaint helm]

I need a new phone

My current phone is galaxy a73

Budget about uh 400

This phoe have a defective motherboard apparently as per the technician

It will cost 200 ish to replace

So

I will buy a new one

[quaint helm]

nothing

[thin turtle]

I save 400 and buy a monitor

[quaint helm]

nothing 3a frfr

[thin turtle]

hard disk is quite slow

oh it do be fluctuating

[civic cloud]

thats why

[thin turtle]

chat do I keep a copy of my phone in a hard disk and in the PC?

46 GB is a whole game

[thin turtle]

I use black magic to skip a hour

[nova steppe]

You said "and," so is the [first] hard drive you mention external?

[thin turtle]

yes

I have a copy in my PC and now transferring it to a hard disk

but

Do I delete it after or

well ig it is safer to have a backup for the backup

these names are cute

E: look like :3

C: look like :)

hmm

[civic cloud]

@rapid lakeyoure right, youtube start page is pretty good rn

like for a while they kept showing the exact same videos ive skipped 20 times already

[rapid lake]

Lmfao

[thin turtle]

The drive failed at 20GB transfer

Piece of shit

[brave field]

you can backup your phone

someone at google should bring back mass storage mode, and then give us a whole range of backup options

app apks, app data, regular files, system app configs only

Full backups are so heavy though. Converting everything to opus, av1, and avif and compressing the rest would help

[civic cloud]

Why do you want to backup normal apps?

[thin turtle]

Hm

I'll try again later

It's very slow

[nova steppe]

The drive failed, or the transfer?

[rose yacht]

i spoke of getting a gaming laptop and i found this for 1.6k euro (student discount applied) I am only allowed to buy a laptop for uni and to game, but sosmething is telling me its too overpowered for what i intend on doing.. (unless i count cyberpunk modded)

[thin turtle]

idk

it makes the disconnection sound then I get a failure message

ts pmo

[proper sundial]

backup to google drive

if you need more than 15gb just get the trial of 2tb for 30 days

get your new phone and transfer then

[toxic sentinel]

Depends what kind of games you play with it

RTX 5070 mobile version has only 8GB which is pretty much minimum nowdays on new games

[thin turtle]

Bold of you to assume I have money on me rn

[toxic sentinel]

Unless you're willing to drop texture quality, but that will make games look so bad

[thin turtle]

Or within 30 days

[proper sundial]

activate the trial when you get your new phone

[thin turtle]

Bruh

Why bother then

[proper sundial]

then dont get new phone

[rose yacht]

true

[proper sundial]

[thin turtle]

[toxic sentinel]

I think RTX 5070 mobile matches at RTX 5060ti desktop so it isn't that overpowered, but of course you could get RTX 5060 laptop probably cheaper

[rose yacht]

but the 12 gig one is expensive ash

[thin turtle]

I have a backup already

[proper sundial]

I can contribute $1

[thin turtle]

It's just that the external drive failed to copy the files from the pc

[proper sundial]

chkdsk

it'll fix

[thin turtle]

Na

I hate it now

[toxic sentinel]

Yeah I know, but that's Nvidia

[proper sundial]

if you do that it'll repair it

[toxic sentinel]

They have pretty much monopoly in gaming laptops

[rose yacht]

if i could buy an amd laptop i would tbf

[thin turtle]

look unc @proper sundial

donot the laptop

[proper sundial]

what amazing files you have in this 46gb

[toxic sentinel]

Yeah sadly AMD might not be releasing RX 9000 series on laptops

[thin turtle]

Idk how the backup is only 46 tbh

Must've been the wind

@proper sundial

I wrong ping myself

[nova steppe]

Because it only backed up what you selected

[toxic sentinel]

As they will probably starting to focus on APU's in mobile department. AI Max 395+ with 8060s competes with RTX 4060 so it looks promising.

[thin turtle]

I selected everything

[nova steppe]

Well something from that is excluded

[proper sundial]

delete videos you save alot

[thin turtle]

A big chunk

Or maybe Samsung has black magic

I used smart switch

[nova steppe]

Probably the "Data" in the apps

[thin turtle]

Yea

[thin turtle]

I dunno where to start

Let's just keep em like that

[proper sundial]

Shift+Delete will help

[thin turtle]

Until I decide a certain year will be erased

[lost fossil]

the three horsemen of advice that doesn't fix anything

1. chkdsk
2. sfc /scannow
3. dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

although admittedly the third horseman has been slacking because that command does work sometimes

[rose yacht]

@toxic sentinel the thing is though

i think its too much for what i intend on doing

[proper sundial]

well it does work depends on the user pc

[rose yacht]

so i might just be throwing money

[proper sundial]

but I've some other heavy tools

we dont share them

otherwise we dont get paid

[thin turtle]

Lmao Google?

Acrobat too

The hell

[rose yacht]

AM on android? based

[thin turtle]

I got a good deal

[proper sundial]

so we know now where to start now

delete apple music immediately

[thin turtle]

Playlists

[proper sundial]

you dont listen to music

so delete it

i forgot how much i hate the g305 was replacing the switches and it takes like 20 screws and a lot of elbow grease to get to them

@snow rover as i had to tear off the glides to get to the screws, i realized that my current glides are not that great anymore, they're supposedly teflon glides and tbf they wore down after like 2 weeks but i just never cared too much. anyway, i'm on the search page on aliexpress and i see glass skates do you think it's a reasonable idea to get these invincible skates or just get the regular skates for dirt cheap since it's a g305?

or maybe even get dot shaped skates like these

ok you should know it by now

[thin turtle]

Why would I

I'm not a computer engineer

[lost fossil]

damn that's expensive (in comparison)

[snow rover]

xraypad is a real brand

and you get 40

which is enough for 5 mice

maybe even more

[lost fossil]

do you not just plop one at every corner?

is plop even a word?

[snow rover]

plop is definitely a word

[thin turtle]

So a tensor is a matrix ? @civic cloud

Never heard this term

Matrices are rank 2 tensors

A tensor seems to be a block of numerical values

The rank represents the direction

Or dimensions idk

| a a |
| a a |

2x2 matrix

A rank 2 tensor

Because we only have rows and columns

2 dimension

[civic cloud]

Neither am I

[thin turtle]

A rank 3 tensor would be a cube "matrix"

what do you guys think about this monitor ? I think its neat and for the price is ok for a 1440p, i just need a second opinion

[snow rover]

all of these 1440p mid refresh rate ips monitors are the same

[rose yacht]

i guess, but i wouldnt rlly want to spend more, id say about 200-250 euro tops

[quaint helm]

sus 'this monitor' link frfr

[lost fossil]

yeah but we all know what hyperlinks are primarily used for on discord so you can't expect us, of all people, to do the extra work of hovering over the link to see if it's really the monitor that you're linking

besides, noone cares if an ugly looking link is in the chat

no idea but theres also a weaker and strong form

[thin turtle]

Spoken like a true engineer

[civic cloud]

do i look like a mathematician

those nerds just make shit up all the time

"we came up with imaginary numbers otherwise this doesnt work"

[thin turtle]

[civic cloud]

real engineering is paying a hundred grands for software and letting that do the work

[thin turtle]

Real engineering is that you're always wrong no matter what

[snow rover]

fuck the software

[thin turtle]

Get a gooder and more expensive software

[civic cloud]

but then you say "the provided assumptions were inaccurate"
