water cooling evaporates water or something idfk

ask chatgpt

[civic cloud]

No

@rapid lake why is ai rumoured to use a lot of water?

[quartz kayak]

alot of water is a stretch lmao

[quaint helm]

they pump water in , become more dirty water and keep on reusing it (like filter process in between and other stuff blah blah blah) aka input from the sea but no output back to the sea

[quaint helm]

maybe gauss dont understand me

[civic cloud]

I'm on a mission to get stuff from IKEA, I'll get back to you

[civic cloud]

where does all the water go?

and why does it get dirty from being used as a coolant?

[rapid lake]

Gets mixed with other things I'm guessing

[quaint helm]

okok they pump water into the AI servers right to cool it , those like small corrosion ykyk?

[civic cloud]

i dont see how literal power plants can use river water for cooling just fine (and then dump the warm water back into the river)

but a server farm cant

[rapid lake]

I think they use it differently

[quaint helm]

i think the filter part is diff so thats why

[rapid lake]

but either way water's gonna get contaminated from the pipes it runs through

and I really doubt they use just water

they definitely mix it with other stuff to improve its cooling ability

like cars do with coolant

[civic cloud]

Bro they aren't using lead pipes

[civic cloud]

Even then you fill the loop once and then just top it up occasionally, that's not a huge water usage

[quaint helm]

no matter what ur water gonna be DIRTY , unless PURE water then idk how that works with liquid cooling

bet ur water gonna pass through some reservoir or big storage right those aint 100% sealed from anything

[civic cloud]

rivers aint sealed either

[rapid lake]

neither is my bike and after a while cooland becomes brown

[civic cloud]

why does your bicycle need coolant? no way youre that fast

[quartz kayak]

is this what endgame packet tracer looks like

ts easy asf

[lost fossil]

dear diary, today i closed firefox

[quartz kayak]

i forgot people now have 32gb of ram

[void turret]

You need a medicine

[void turret]

and oreo is missing 400mb ram

[spare relic]

Dear diary , i was feeling epic

Wish shitty devs would optimize their games to require only 16 gb ram or 12

[brave field]

If it's launching on console, that much ram won't be required on PC

or it will, and will get very harsh criticism, and then get a patch

unless its a monster hunter or playstation exclusive. then, it won't get a patch and will be defended instead

[civic cloud]

Noooo not all the goon material :(

[rapid lake]

I don't know if that's sarcasm but a lot of bikes are liquid-cooled

[quaint helm]

baiting

[civic cloud]

Stop right there

You're being trolled

[upbeat spade]

[quaint helm]

u are trolling

[wary pawn]

[quaint helm]

1 day QD oled gonna be common and cheap af pls pls

[earnest marlin]

imagine using an OLED for productivity

[kindred vapor]

Or maybe there will be better tech than oled

Like micro led

[earnest marlin]

or QDEL

quantom dot electroluminescent

it was at CES last year, havent seen anything about it this week unfortunately

[kindred vapor]

At this point there are so many upcoming tech

[earnest marlin]

what a time to be alive 😄

[kindred vapor]

But none actually came

Oled has many flaws

It needs to be replaced with something better

[earnest marlin]

i agree

[quaint helm]

idk now theres like a rgb mini led blah blah blah

[kindred vapor]

Mini led is not it

[quaint helm]

that gap between lovelance and ampere is BIG

[quaint helm]

i feel like in the next few years , to power the monitor = use those psu cable frfr

[wary pawn]

I posted this in #gta-tech-support but no answer. So i'm trying here.

[civic cloud]

RGB Mini LED seems lit

[quaint helm]

elo gaus

[civic cloud]

hiii

I'm about to cut my desk

wbu

[quaint helm]

day dreaming

[kindred vapor]

you mean micro rgb

or rgb led

which is not micro led

or the rgb oled shown by asus

and different from mini led

also not to be confused with another tech which is also called rgb led

and then there's these idiots

[agile siren]

👀 Not the end game but a good enough topology for practicing a few things on packet tracer.

[kindred vapor]

hello ajay

[agile siren]

Hi

[kindred vapor]

oh there's multi led too which is also known as micro rgb

oh hey I saw this back then

so it's nothing new

[quaint helm]

~~back then , 5mins ago? okok ~~

[kindred vapor]

gotta wait 10y when they are affordable

[kindred vapor]

it's from august 2025

check the date on the article

samsung also launched it's $30k TV on this tech

[civic cloud]

I mean the thing where the backlight is RGB LED with lots of dimming zones

[kindred vapor]

you just described like 5 known display techs

[civic cloud]

bro

[quaint helm]

bro

[lost fossil]

micro led has a backlight led for every pixel so it's basically like oled

so in terms of backlit displays there's microled and then everything else basically

[civic cloud]

ok someone buy me a micro RGB led TV

[quaint helm]

micro-tv with RGB and led display , ok gotcha

[wary pawn]

Nvidia dropped support for my laptop’s gpu.

[brave field]

ouchie ouch

what GPU?

[wary pawn]

Maxwell; 940MX

Well, they dropped it with 581.80 it seems (or similar number), but i found out today.

[brave field]

RIP

[wary pawn]

They said

[stone apex]

Is it possible to run two games on two different GPUs?

[brave field]

yes

[cold elbow]

Linux time?

[cold elbow]

Yes

[stone apex]

How.

[earnest marlin]

i wish i could switch to linux

[brave field]

select the GPU you want for one game and then do the same for the other

Start button > "graphics"

[cold elbow]

Do it

[earnest marlin]

i cant, i need my games

with kernel level anticheat

thats the only thing holding me back

[civic cloud]

reasonable

[stone apex]

Or do I need to restart my puter?

[cold elbow]

Dual boot then

[stone apex]

Ok it's working now, thanks.

[brave field]

welcome

[civic cloud]

ok so turns out buying a large TV thats as wide as your TV console is kinda dumb because theres no good place for stereo speakers without the TV hanging too high again

question now is: do i buy a new soundbar (ugh) and replace my stereo speakers with that OR do i DIY two fabric front panel doors so i can place my current speakers in the tv console

has anyone done this recently by any chance?

nvm turns outIkea makes mesh doors lol

ugh not in stock

ugh they are EOL

dont do this to me rtings

[mystic solar]

I have invested 20$ into this meme coin because I believe in the cause

Lmao too stupid

[brave field]

@civic cloudgauss

please

do not let that screenshot be real

don't tell me rtings has started this nonsense

[brave field]

diy the fabric, don't fall for the soundbar scam

[mystic solar]

Nvm it was a fckn rug pull

At least it was only 20$

[nova steppe]

[quaint helm]

this no longer a 'gaming laptop'

[wary pawn]

I used linux for some time, but i couldn’t get used to it.

[civic cloud]

Apparently all soundbar and printer reviews have been behind a paywall for 3 years already lol

[civic cloud]

Can't, it's in the corner

[lost fossil]

as someone somewhere said,

we all died in 2020

[civic cloud]

Reading through those 9.1.4 soundbar reviews sounds good and all dat...but I have the cheapest netflix sub and basically only watch YT anyway, so stereo speakers will get the job done

DIY mesh doors it is

[cold elbow]

Go DIY

[civic cloud]

Thank you melon for your input

[rapid lake]

I hope I live to see the day where intel becomes competitive with AMD, and they start making GPUs that beat Nvidia’s

If anyone’s gonna do it it’ll be intel, amd is not big enough

[quaint helm]

too bad they very late only enter gpu market

[rapid lake]

It's the perfect time to enter

after nvidia is pulling out

[quaint helm]

they enter around 40series right 🤔

It's not deo

It's uhh

rollon or whatever they call it

[civic cloud]

liquid deo roller

It's still deodorant

[civic cloud]

Really? I just feel like I have wet armpits after using it

[rapid lake]

Normal spray deo sometimes ruins my clothes, it also gives me allergies sometimes

[civic cloud]

damn :/

fair enough

[rapid lake]

But this is goated

[civic cloud]

nvm I don't have the same...still Nivea tho

[lost fossil]

if u use regular deodorants (as opposed to antiperspirant or whatever) then try axe wolfthorn

good shit

[civic cloud]

Wait what's the difference to antiperspirants

Antitranspirant

[rapid lake]

Some deos are also antitranspirants I'm pertty sure

They stop you from sweating

[lost fossil]

antiperspirant uses some chemicals to block the sweat pores or whatever which i heard is actually bad for u

[quaint helm]

projector mount? tv mount?

[rapid lake]

I think you should avoid ones with aluminium in them

[civic cloud]

That's anti aluminium propaganda

[rapid lake]

I see lots of "aluminium ffree" ones

[civic cloud]

There's recent studies showing that you barely absorb anything so you're good to go

[rapid lake]

Mine has aluminium but it's been fine

[civic cloud]

@quaint helm

[lost fossil]

idk how much of that cabinet space is a closet but mine is like a 6th of that

[civic cloud]

Bitchass discord let me see what I'm typing????

[rapid lake]

That's expensive

[civic cloud]

[rapid lake]

legs more expensive than the desk

[civic cloud]

They are still kinda wobbly

[rapid lake]

What type of wood is that

[quaint helm]

guess the word

[civic cloud]

idk it's from the hardware store

I just got the cheapest 180x80 desktop they had that was still real wood

[lost fossil]

it's made of a wood nut in cider

[civic cloud]

Okay I gotta eat lunch, I'll send a pic once I get everything setup tomorrow xoxo

[rapid lake]

I wood nut pay that much for a desk

[civic cloud]

The good height adjustable desk from IKEA is over 600

[rapid lake]

I'll stick to my shitty desk bro thanks

[civic cloud]

Cheapest electrically height adjustable is just over 200

Our office has super sturdy height adjustable legs, but those are over a grand :/

I wanted to snag one while we moved offices but didn't get the chance :/

[brave field]

9.1.4 on a soundbar is pain

Nothing gives you all your channels and the sources that do give them all are hindered by the fact that angling a few speakers isn't enough to replace actually having surround

even VIRTUAL SURROUND FRONT on yamaha receivers does a better job (you have actual decent speakers)

[civic cloud]

Yeah i'll Stick to my current speakers because I also don't feel like splurging a few hundred quid on a soundbar with satellite speakers (Samsung's top of the line soundbar with sub and 2 satellites is 811€ rn tho)

[civic cloud]

I got two Nubert A125 which are the entry level active desk speakers from a fancy German speaker brand :D

[brave field]

gimme

I want

[civic cloud]

They are not that fancy

[brave field]

I have dookie speakers from a 2006 Insignia HTIB

[civic cloud]

what is it then

Goddamn that's a unit of a TV

[lost fossil]

i was able to install tiny10 on a core 2 duo e6750 with 2gb "dr"2 (i posted it in this channel some time ago)

You want an apartment that's 300k all for yourself

new table

These are not the purchases someone makes when they're looking for new apartments bro 😭

[civic cloud]

how is a TV a stupid purchase,
the projector and screen would have been fine if they worked as intended
whats wrong with the AiO? thats my birthday present :(
adjustable desk: i stand sometimes ok
couch: im just indecisive ok
what new table

[civic cloud]

im getting a 380€ (after taxes) raise in 3 months and another 100€ raise a month later :D

[rapid lake]

lmao

huge

Bro's raises are like double my salary

[rapid lake]

Didn't you get a new table when you got the projector

[civic cloud]

oh you mean the couch table

yeah

[rapid lake]

Yeah that

[civic cloud]

you do know that i sell these things and dont just throw them away right

[rapid lake]

Really

[civic cloud]

yeah i only lost 300€ with the couch sheningans

could that have been avoided if i had thought about my plans more throughly? yes

[rapid lake]

Right

[civic cloud]

will i learn from this? maybe

[rapid lake]

I think about selling stuff all the time but I can't I get attached to things

And like selling stuff is so time consuming

Unless you're willing to give it up for cheap

[civic cloud]

excuses

youre on discord all the time, you have time to package and send stuff away

[rapid lake]

on discord all the time??

smh

[civic cloud]

yes

[rapid lake]

what are these lies

[civic cloud]

youre always in this chat

just like me :D

[rapid lake]

We're only here 10% of the time

We aren't addicted to discord

[civic cloud]

uhu

ok

brb gotta adjust fan curves

[rapid lake]

Well that's what I tell myself anyways

[rapid lake]

Imagine

having to go into bios to adjust fan curves

loser

[civic cloud]

:3

I forgot that my PC can't do the shift+restart thing to get into bios

It just hangs up on a black screen

Gotta do the delete spamming while boot

[lost fossil]

making custom sleeved cables at home for this is going to be aids

any reason to have 6 god dam 12 vhpwr output

[quartz kayak]

Anyone know an app where i can write python or c# stuff and test it then send the .py to my pc

[rapid lake]

Just use any IDE with a C# compiler?

Or an online compiler

[quartz kayak]

Im more interested in python

[rapid lake]

So just use visual studio code

And install py

[quartz kayak]

On the phone 😧

[rapid lake]

You never said on the phone

[quartz kayak]

I need it on the phone

[rapid lake]

I’ve tried phone compilers they all suck ass

[quartz kayak]

damn im autism i forgot to specify the platform

[rapid lake]

If it’s something that just runs in the terminal I’d use a web compiler

Programiz is fast I’ve tried that one

Not sure if they have python and C#

Why do you need it on phone though? I’m curious

[quartz kayak]

When bored and not on pc - do homework

[rapid lake]

It’ll be such a pain in the ass to code on phone it’s better to scroll tiktok

You could just use a laptop like a normal person though

And use git to sync your code between laptop and pc

That’s what I do

[thin turtle]

Who the hell does that

[civic cloud]

do you guys think it would be better to use the cable that lets me control pump, fans and vrm fan of the AiO independently or is it fine to use the single cable solution? i remember hearing that a constant speed is better for the pump

[lost fossil]

better to use the former

i assume the all in one cable is for itx systems where fan headers are scarce

(hey guys it's scarce here)

[civic cloud]

makes sense but i was hoping you would tell me "dont worry gauss, you dont need to open your pc again"

i have so many fan headers

[lost fossil]

do worry gauss, you will have to open your pc again

[civic cloud]

breakfast first

[thin turtle]

Yes constant loads and constant speeds are desirable for motors

Given it is within the rated range

[civic cloud]

done

[quaint helm]

[quartz kayak]

HELL NAH

HE HE HE HELLL NAH

[rapid lake]

????

You need a laptop

GO BUY

[quaint helm]

a tablet with a wireless keyboard is enough

[quaint helm]

ok wth my country banned GROK over explicit images

[civic cloud]

yeah fuck everything from Elon

[quaint helm]

but i still can access grok

[civic cloud]

Why would you want that

[quaint helm]

idk if chatgpt down > perplex , if perplex down > grok

[quartz kayak]

No

Stay away from me

[rapid lake]

no?

You'd still be running some shitty mobile OS instead of windows or linux

https://www.techpowerup.com/345053/intel-core-ultra-x9-388h-panther-lake-igpu-doubles-amd-strix-point-performance-in-cyberpunk-2077 this actually a great win for intel

[rapid lake]

comeback?

[quaint helm]

i guess so

[rapid lake]

What about other mid-level igpus

Either way almost 30fps on ultra + RT on 1080p is impressive as hell

That can play any game at 1080p with some compromises

[quaint helm]

ye

[rapid lake]

It's probably faster than my pc

Haven't tried cyberpunk

[quaint helm]

wym

~~its ok amd let intel compete against ur chip from 2024 ~~

[rapid lake]

I mean, budget cpus won't have the same igpu as this I'm guessing

did they announce any other igpus for lower budget cpus

[quaint helm]

B390 only iirc thats all

[rapid lake]

@civic cloud wtf this game is cool

it's like minecraft and runescape

[quaint helm]

@civic cloud wtf is this game

[rapid lake]

I spend 25 minutes on this somehow

cool

My laptop is not liking this though, I might need to turn down some settings

[sterile cliff]

Factorio?

[rapid lake]

Yeah

[fickle finch]

i like the game too

the game and dlc will never get discounts

[rapid lake]

I’m just trying the demo rn

Will buy some time later

[civic cloud]

I told you that you would like it 😎

[civic cloud]

Yessss

You can come over for Netflix and chill now btw @rapid lake

Ignore the cables

[rapid lake]

Damn bro

[quaint helm]

i see cables

[civic cloud]

I said ignore

[rapid lake]

I’m hopping on a flight tn

[civic cloud]

uwu

[rapid lake]

[quaint helm]

netflix only no chill

[civic cloud]

:(

[rapid lake]

How do you connect your TV to the speakers btw

[civic cloud]

HDMI

[quaint helm]

🔵 🦷

[rapid lake]

But TVs don’t have HDMI out

[civic cloud]

eARC

Silly guy

[rapid lake]

What’s that

[civic cloud]

Audio Return Channel

Dedicated port that can send out audio

[rapid lake]

We have these

And two speakers

3

[civic cloud]

Damn bitch, clean your place

[rapid lake]

And ionno how to make them work

We live on the highway ok

There’s lots of dust

So stfu

[civic cloud]

ON the highway???

crazy

[rapid lake]

Off the highway*

[civic cloud]

you stfu

put on the maid outfit and start cleaning

[rapid lake]

tvs have this?

Holdup

[quaint helm]

~~hire oreo 🤓 ~~

[rapid lake]

Wrong person bro

[civic cloud]

Yes?

[rapid lake]

That’s fish

[quaint helm]

gaus want to spread it to more people

[rapid lake]

I’m not sure mine does

[civic cloud]

well, I don't think that feature existed back in 2005

[civic cloud]

VGA

Ancient

[rapid lake]

I bet your tv has vga

Anyways

That’s all the ports

Is that fkn usb 1.0

[civic cloud]

nuh uh

[rapid lake]

So is there a way to output sound to the thing

Because watching anything on this is aids

Bought a firestick for nothing

[civic cloud]

I'm confused, you have a L/R output and can just connect via Bluetooth to your fire TV stick

What more do you want

[rapid lake]

What

The firestick is connected with HDMI

But I want to get the sound to the speakers

I’m confused

[lost fossil]

tosic

[lost fossil]

you could use an hdmi extension cable to connect the fire stick to the soundbar

[quaint helm]

https://videocardz.com/newz/power-supplies-and-cpu-coolers-may-be-next-for-price-increases-distributor-letter-claims rumor but yk go get ur lf3 asap

spin on that thang

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1yzoiUIGGs

[rapid lake]

It has one HDMI port and it’s labelled HDMI out

[quaint helm]

i wonder how ur youtube home page look like mr orererereo

[lost fossil]

it's a soundbar, it can't have hdmi out without having hdmi in

[rapid lake]

Here

It has 4 modes: DVD/CD, TV, USB, and tuner FM

I have the L/R cables connected but it’s not detectinf anything

[lost fossil]

that's not a soundbar tho

looks like a dvd player

[civic cloud]

Connect the speakers via Bluetooth to the fire stick

[lost fossil]

this can only support mono sound input it seems

the bottom 3 coax connectors are video and the top one (red) is sound

but there needs to be red and white for right and left

and the headphone one is output i guarantee

i don't think this kind of movie setup from the 00s was designed to be used for strictly audio output

i imagine this is what you have but only the sub, no speakers

[rapid lake]

Sub and 3 speakers

Left front, right front and big one in the middle

Usually we connect the the 3 red yellow and white cables to a receiver (that’s connected to a "dish" or whatever it is in English) and then we connect that to the TV

Or we connect the player to the tv? Idr

[rapid lake]

Is that a soundbar

[lost fossil]

yes

[lost fossil]

can you post the rear part of the dvd player

show us its inputs and outputs

[rapid lake]

I did

[rapid lake]

That is it

I showed you all its holes

There’s USB at the front too

Would an HDMI to USB adapter work? Then I can plug the firestick directly into the dvd player and then give video out to the TV with HDMI?

[lost fossil]

yeah well... that's not gonna work

[lost fossil]

that's not gonna work either

i don't think you can use this home cinema as just audio output

idk, i have a pretty limited understanding of what's what with your dvd player without an actual photo instead of a blurry out of focus video

[civic cloud]

kinda passive aggressive

you could be a member of a forum

[lost fossil]

fym could i'm already a member of a forum

[civic cloud]

well

yeah

got me there

[cold elbow]

That's how we roll in this channel

We roast eachother 24/7

[civic cloud]

you're barely here, it's a bois channel now

[civic cloud]

of course the IKEA door that I need for the DIY fabric door thing is out of stock at my local IKEA 💀

[rapid lake]

I knew someone would say that

I couldn't pull it out too far because the cables are tight

I'll get better pics later

or maybe I'll just get a soundbar like you

[civic cloud]

Mr Cookie just said Soundbars are a scam

[lost fossil]

u mean mr cora?

[civic cloud]

@rapid lake have you grabbed the full version of factorio yet? :3

[rapid lake]

No mane I want to continue playing the demo a bit first

[rapid lake]

But when I do we can make our own city and play together right?

Guys what the hell

I just checked on intel 14th prices and they went up??

😭

Can't have shit these days

@rapid lake let's migrate to amd

[quaint helm]

bcus intel ultra is poopoo so back to the 14th gen

this battery icon kinda.....acceptable tbh

[rapid lake]

If only

[cold elbow]

Why would u buy that?

[thin turtle]

@rapid lake deal with this

[cold elbow]

Rude

[rapid lake]

Because ddr4

[thin turtle]

I have diddy 5

And aston martin 5?

[thin turtle]

Can't afford

[void turret]

Cant remember, did you have intel

[thin turtle]

Yes

[quaint helm]

u want 5090 diddy v2?

[thin turtle]

maybe this is 5090 diddy square

[thin turtle]

[rapid lake]

5090 with 24gb vram

D v2

@thin turtle what’s your cpu

[thin turtle]

i3 12th

Been abusing this poor guy

[cold elbow]

12th gen is also ddr4

13th also

[quaint helm]

14 = 1 number more than 13 and 2 number more than 12 thats why 🤓

[rapid lake]

I know

That’s why it’d be a good idea to buy intel rn

[cold elbow]

Yes but last time i checked 12 gen is cheaper and same performance

So again why 14th

[rapid lake]

14th gen performance is same as 12th?

[cold elbow]

And doesn't have issues

Whwn u watch 14th gen reviews make sure that it's a recent review with latest bios update because it was a rough ride for intel during release

[rapid lake]

Haven’t watched any

But lik

[cold elbow]

14th is basically 13th

[rapid lake]

eh

[cold elbow]

And 13th is 12th with minor improvements

[rapid lake]

For gaming I guess there isn’t any difference

Same with amd’s 7000 to 9000

[cold elbow]

How intel tried to convince us with 14th is pushing so much power and voltage which later was the cause for damaging cpus

[rapid lake]

7800x3d vs 9800x3d is like 3%

[cold elbow]

Your safest het is 12th

[rapid lake]

I have 13th but it’s 13400f

I wish I had an igpu

Your standards do not apply here
