hello

[vagrant crown]

If it’s out of the box and in your pocket I don’t think it’s being scrutinised as anything other than your phone. I have a friend who goes abroad to purchase watches occasionally and he just wears it back and mails himself the box/papers with no issue.

[thin turtle]

no 32" option?

what you need to look for is local dimming zones count and HDR performance reviews

are MSI among the good mini led makers

[lost fossil]

cooling

[thin turtle]

@quartz kayak imo the HDR performance is high priority for such monitors

mini led or OLED

there's no point in getting them if they don't have good hdr

[quartz kayak]

If you had 600 euro to put on a monitor and only one 1080p ips what would you get

[thin turtle]

I would buy tickets to tahiti

[quartz kayak]

Bro fuck tahiti 😭

[thin turtle]

[rapid lake]

Here any phone that enters the country they’ll send you a text that you have to pay import tax within x amount of time or they’ll block your sim on that phone

An iphone 16 pro has about $180 tax

[civic cloud]

How do you know that it wasn't your phone when you left

[rapid lake]

What

How do they know?

They know all phones that were imported here

[vagrant crown]

How?

[civic cloud]

oh I thought you mean when you bring one through the airport lol

[vagrant crown]

They open your mail?

[rapid lake]

Yes they know that too

[civic cloud]

wat

[vagrant crown]

Guess it’s easier to keep a track of, when daily traveller numbers are about 3-4 guys and a dog.

[rapid lake]

When you put a sim card in it

They know

The sim can identify your phone’s serial number

Why is this surprising to you tf

[vagrant crown]

Is the phone network provided by the government?

[rapid lake]

We have two private companies

One of them was/is practically owned by the government

But both of them follow this procedure

[vagrant crown]

It sounds surprising because you could have any number of phones here unregistered and no one knows you have it

[rapid lake]

You get 3 months

If you don’t pay you can’t use a sim on that phone anymore

Well, until you pay that is

[vagrant crown]

You can buy SIM cards from supermarkets etc and never have to register them to use them

[rapid lake]

We have those too

[vagrant crown]

So how are they tracking you then lol

[rapid lake]

Those ones can’t connect to cell towers

[vagrant crown]

They can’t have that sophisticated a database of all handsets in the country surely

[rapid lake]

It’s just a "fake" number that you can use to sign up to whatsapp or whatever and use it on wifi

[vagrant crown]

Interesting

[rapid lake]

It’s just a money grab

[vagrant crown]

Fr

[rapid lake]

I guess it’s to encourage people to buy here instead

Help the dying dead economy

[vagrant crown]

I mean we have import tax here but unless you’re bringing it in with the box etc and are unlucky enough to have your bags checked at customs you would slip through unopposed

[rapid lake]

Import tax here is ridiculous and customs are so slow

So shipping anything from outside unless you’ve got connections and shipping in bulk is just not worth it

Doesn’t help the port still hasn’t been rebuilt ever since it blew up

[wary pawn]

You underestimate countries with tax hunger.

[wary pawn]

The first time i saw news, i thought nuke blew up.

[nova steppe]

[civic cloud]

Because normal govts don't spy that hard on you

[civic cloud]

That's what you get for using those fireworks from Poland

[rapid lake]

Spy?

I don’t think our government has the uh

Logistics to do that

[civic cloud]

You literally just described it

[thin turtle]

Gauss

You isp knows a lot about your Internet traffic if you don't use vpn

The same concept applies to phones

Or sim

Once the phone communicates with a tower, a data exchange of such type needs to happen

I think this is an ipv4 thing

[snow rover]

they will see my cat pictures 😰

[thin turtle]

Wait veratisium made a video about this one

It's crazy that they can breach your phone via the phone number only

Like no other context is needed

They will pick up your calls and receive your text messages

I'd have to drill holes in my floor through the insulation

i don't wanna do allat

[quaint helm]

is urs high performance 🤓

[void turret]

I had to get better connection to downstairs so my son can watch netflix etc, wifi signal was so weak from upstairs. So I bought 30 meter long ethernet cable

[quaint helm]

30m

[thin turtle]

Imagine not having phone lines

The longer the cheaper

[void turret]

And 10m cable just to get a connection from another side of living room to my pc

Fuck the wifi

[quaint helm]

alright

[thin turtle]

[pseudo willow]

well if I intended to live here permanently I'd do that

but I do not

[civic cloud]

Fuck the landlord, drill holes into the walls and ceiling

[quaint helm]

nonono not that way

[pseudo willow]

i mean

i could

[civic cloud]

do it

It's not your problem to fix up the holes when you move out

That's future yous problem

Fuck that guy, what has he ever done for you?

[void turret]

Paying for holes or a cable?
Dont know how much they ask to fix holes but 30m cable is here 22€

• you can take the cable with you when moving out

[civic cloud]

wdym pay, it's like 10€ for a tube of that white quick dry cement thing, just gotta smear that over, sand it off a bit and paint the wall

Gotta paint the walls anyway

[void turret]

Never fixed holes so idk

[civic cloud]

damn

[quaint helm]

well

[pseudo willow]

unfortunately he is family

[civic cloud]

even better

wait no, I meant future you, not the landlord

[pseudo willow]

i meannn

anyone outside my immediate family isn't too fond of me anyways

so maybe I'll do it anyways out of spite

[civic cloud]

yes😎

[pseudo willow]

the Milwaukee is charging.

[cold elbow]

So u cant fishwire it?

I replaced the coax cable in the room with ethernet+coax long time ago, and it was easy to do by the electrician

[civic cloud]

You assume that there's a coax cable

[cold elbow]

Any cable can be pulled even power cables

If they have these pipes in the walls

[civic cloud]

Seems like a lot of effort when you can just drill a hole

[cold elbow]

You like holes

[civic cloud]

Now you're assuming things again

[pseudo willow]

there is not

[rapid lake]

Did you route it through the walls like a normal human being or

[rapid lake]

We have pipes in the walls but they’re so tight you’d need diddy baby oil to pull more cables through

There’s already multiple power cables and the thin phone line going through them

Also don’t the power cables interfere with the Ethernet

[vagrant crown]

Use a ferret

[cold elbow]

They kinda do and that's why there are special cables with extra shielding

[rapid lake]

Unless they’re fiber optic cables

[void turret]

On the walls, not through

[rapid lake]

This?

This is what we have

[cold elbow]

That's meant for outdoors but probably works just fine

[rapid lake]

Ah

[cold elbow]

I think it becomes an issue in very long runs

[rapid lake]

Hopefully you put those plastic covers to hide them

[rapid lake]

My room is quite far from the router

[cold elbow]

I have like a lot of power cables and ethernet cables in our server rack and we never faced an issue

[rapid lake]

Like we’d need > 30 meters to run the cable through all the pipes to my room

Is it worth it over using a repeater

[cold elbow]

30 meters is nothing

Say 100 to 150

[civic cloud]

That's why you use fiber optics so nothing interferes with them

[rapid lake]

I’m not talking about speed drops from long distance

I’m saying is it worth the hassle

[rapid lake]

Yeah lemme just go buy some rq

[cold elbow]

Oh yeah ethernet over fiber is also a very good option but that is usually used for runs between buildings

[civic cloud]

You go girl xoxo

[rapid lake]

Don’t think I’ve ever seen fiber cables being sold commercially here

[cold elbow]

The average user doesn't need it

[civic cloud]

Had is not average

[cold elbow]

It's actually cheaper than ethernet

[quaint helm]

but if full setup no tho

[cold elbow]

Wym by full setup?

[quaint helm]

like the cost for equipment docks and etc etc

[cold elbow]

Nah it's still waaay cheaper

Don't forget that ethernet is copper wires

[rapid lake]

Is there a free alternative to IDM

internet download manager

[cold elbow]

Yes

Replace internet with free

[civic cloud]

Why do you need that

[rapid lake]

Faster downloads?

[civic cloud]

How does it help

[rapid lake]

and no more "error: network interrupted" bullshit

[rapid lake]

Not sure

I think it segments big files into smaller ones

and lets you download them faster

So far it hasn't helped I'm still getting 500 KB/s

but hey at least it doesn't restart when my internet cuts out for a sec

[quartz kayak]

[rapid lake]

But you wouldn’t pair that with a b650m would you

At least if I’m spending $600 on a cpu I’d pay extra for a better chipset mobo

[snow gazelle]

he asked for the best one

and many b650 boards can handle 16 core cpu

23:20 most of them seem to be fine
https://youtu.be/pUUVW7wgR3s?t=1401

[lost fossil]

i say there's no meaningful difference between b650 and x670

and b vs x of all other generations tbf

[rapid lake]

[lost fossil]

according to corsair
max memory speed - who cares above 6400 (especially these days)
pcie lanes - who cares as you only need 20 for gpu + nvme and maybe 4 more for another nvme. gen 4 for x16 maybe possibly a concern but the 4090 uses 4.0 so there's still quite a lot of headroom even with 4.0
fast usb - who needs that many anyways
sata ports - who even uses sata these days anymore. except maybe if you have some older 8tb sata ssd that, despite being sata, is worth more than its weight in gold, still it's just 1 or 2 ports used max which is still under 4

that might also be something other than a monitor issue

try connecting it to something different

i thought that was part of the phone ngl

I mean yeah probably

Is this a really old fold

[uneven heron]

It's the Samsung Fold 5

[unreal iron]

Keep a backup phone. The 5 isnt bad, just make sure you know where it's at in its life because theyre only supposed to have 3 years worth of life in the folding screen, and the replacement costs more than the phone

Other than that, be gentle and do NOT leave it just lying open if youre not using the center screen. Get a case - I have some chinsium branded one that protects the hinge and has a flap, DBrand ones are bulky but safe too

[uneven heron]

The screen was recently replaced according to the description. Do you want the link?

[unreal iron]

Does it say inner or outer

[uneven heron]

Inner

[unreal iron]

I'd only caution being aware of the planned obsolescence built into the phone

I generally tell people to get insurance. Because a single accident can render the screen worthless

But getting it used.Just make sure you have a backup in case that happens

Given that the screen is new, you should be able to expect 3-4 years of life at about a hundred folds a day

[brave field]

@lost fossil tempting

[unreal iron]

Other than that, they like to tout the brightness. But really, what that turns into is that you can have it on almost minimum brightness.All the time. hungry apps with lots of visual stuff will make the phone very noticibky warm with the screen.

[uneven heron]

I believe it and I always have my brightness turned way down

Is a 39 degree battery temp concerning for a phone that at least has a built in fan and liquid cooling? I want to assume it's that temp since it is charging right now and I just had a little PC emulation session which had the temp at 44 degrees, though at the same time no games are open so I'm still somewhat concerned, this is like 1 degree below the max recommended temp

[cold elbow]

Microslops

Their name is upgraded now in my brain

[nova steppe]

Considering my phone's battery (Galaxy S21+) is at 30c just sitting on my desk, so for heavy usage I wouldn't say 39 is too bad. But that liquid cooling is most likely just for the CPU/GPU and not anything else, so it's not too far from any expectation

[civic cloud]

...WiFi goes through IKEA cardboard wood just fine, don't be delulu

[lost fossil]

get a small loan of a white cable channel and put ur tv cables in it

[civic cloud]

I have considered that

[lost fossil]

[civic cloud]

but it's low on the priorities

[snow rover]

not enough income to get a loan for cable channel

[quaint helm]

delulu is the solulu

[compact mica]

wsg, i got a question, is intel i3 10100F good for a PC with 32 GB DDR4, RTX 5060? my cpu rn is xeon e5 2640 v4 or smt

[thin turtle]

Nah

If you're buying a new motherboard then consider the ryzen options

[compact mica]

im not buying a new mobo

not yet at least

[quaint helm]

i smell bottleneck

right @thin turtle

[quaint helm]

this is tech-coding-math not linkedin

[thin turtle]

True

[hardy dome]

I asked for a tech role lmao

[thin turtle]

Does that intel processor fit in the current motherboard?

[compact mica]

then what should i get

[thin turtle]

Or are you talking about a separate computer?

[compact mica]

i think it does

[thin turtle]

[quaint helm]

~~imo i will straight away change to 5600x or 5700x3d at least

[thin turtle]

[compact mica]

what about intel CPUs

[quaint helm]

i think i5 12/13/14-600k or kf

like minimum

[thin turtle]

For a 5060?

Why

@compact mica hey if that CPU is super cheap and you don't need to upgrade the motherboard then a deal is a deal

Enjoy the extra frames

[compact mica]

the i3 10100f or xeon i have rn?

[thin turtle]

The i3 10100

[compact mica]

its like 27$

[thin turtle]

Not bad

[thin turtle]

What about the i5 of the same gen?

[compact mica]

link to it if ur wondering

https://allegrolokalnie.pl/oferta/procesor-intel-core-i3-10100f-rl2

[compact mica]

lemme check

found one for 100$

[thin turtle]

Expensive

[thin turtle]

May I ask you something

[compact mica]

sure

[thin turtle]

What's your budget

[compact mica]

170$ im also getting an SSD so yh

[thin turtle]

SDDs are expensive these days

[thin turtle]

But for that amount of money you probably better off getting the i3 for now, if new

[compact mica]

so just save?

[thin turtle]

Yeah

[compact mica]

and then buy better one

ok

[thin turtle]

Because the ssd will take all the money

[thin turtle]

Set a target from now so you know which motherboard and which processor to work towards

[civic cloud]

also, how do i actually make use of direct storage access? is that finally a thing yet?

that's a lot.gif

enable re-bar or above 4g decoding (same thing iirc)

i think that's it

and that just works for any game now?

whichever game supports it

which is not that many from my understanding

Change your dns to one that blocks ads

what's a wird

[civic cloud]

[civic cloud]

is that slower than the basic Google or cloud flare DNS that everyone uses?

wait can I just do that on my TV

yes I can, gimme a DNS

[rapid lake]

I can give one dn

don't be greedy

[civic cloud]

it's ok, we all know you only have one DN left after that accident in 2023

Keep it, you need it more than me

which is disappointing

[quaint helm]

watch the ads

[civic cloud]

no

[thin turtle]

Gauss lemme change your dns

[civic cloud]

🤨

[vagrant crown]

You dismissed my pi-hole suggestion

You could just use a vpn set to somewhere like Albania for no ads on YouTube

Or use smarttube or one of the other apps that do it for you.

[civic cloud]

Sounds like I'd need a pi which means spending money

Why does Albania have no ads??

[vagrant crown]

Gotta spend money to make money

[vagrant crown]

Not sure against the rules maybe

[civic cloud]

I didn't know we could just outlaw ads

[civic cloud]

It's a Google TV OS, so I should be able to just sideload whatever app, right? What's that YouTube app everyone uses, Revanched?

[vagrant crown]

Revanced but honestly smarttube is easier to use imo. 28544 is the short code for it, if you use the “downloader” app

[civic cloud]

what downloader app

I'll check it out when I'm back home

[vagrant crown]

It’s literally called downloader

[civic cloud]

Is it on the appstore

Playstore

[cold elbow]

You cant block ads in some apps unfortunately, that's why we use the browser or some apks

And that's why smart TVs suck and you are better with a smol mini pc

[vagrant crown]

Yeah

[civic cloud]

lit

[civic cloud]

I have my PC hooked up to the TV anyway

[cold elbow]

Then problem solved

[civic cloud]

well yeah

just buy a macro pad and put it to the left of the keyboard

trust in the process

Ye theres rumors that gaming in the future might be cloud gaming

Like geforce now, boosteroid etc

Which isnt neccesarily shit

But its a shit show if nobody has access to personal pc's

Or they could do it like shadow which lets u rent a pc for a monthly sub

Albeit shadow is pretty shit compared to the big two in cloud gaming rn

[cold elbow]

could gaming will never be normalized

[quaint helm]

i feel like at some point right the pop issue = money issue

[quartz kayak]

nah

PC2 is coming

[rapid lake]

I like the idea of cloud gaming if everyone has access to fast internet and the latency gets better, but I also like to own my PC

[civic cloud]

are you planning to join the 27 club? dont be so dramatic sis

Even if I have a PC I’d still get a cloud gaming subscription

Been on the cloud gaming train for a yeat

I have my laptop with me everywhere

If I can use that as a gaming computer anywhere that’d be nice

[sterile cliff]

Ur gonna hate it pretty quickly that u cant mod games

Well certain ones sure that the cloud gaming service allows

And that they actually troubleshoot

[rapid lake]

Well rn cloud gaming is still pretty bad

You say that like idk… I have infinite money and resources to do whatever I want. The reality is these companies have way more impact than anybody would like

Unfortunate reality

If I can keep using my gaming PC I will do so for as long as possible, I prefer not relying on big companies but at the end of the day, they have a ton of control

Like for example I’d love to have my own backup solution that’s functional and reliable but I’m never gonna be able to fully trust it, I’ll still use google drive for example

Also the point is that the 512gb card costs less money than the 256gb one

[mystic solar]

Yes exactly

[compact mica]

my money

[mystic solar]

Why not RTX 5090?

[upbeat spade]

the two drones serve different purposes

if you're getting into drones for aerial photography, i believe the mini 3 still has the better camera

the neo is an entry level line, but what it has going for it is being tiny, light, and having propeller guards

for most purposes, it's not like the camera is that much more inferior either - the thing can still shoot in 4k, it's just kinda worse but if you're just posting things on instagram or whatever nobody's going to notice or care

[quaint helm]

hobby ig

[thin turtle]

You buy me that

[upbeat spade]

propeller guards give you a lot of confidence, neo works out of the box with fpv goggle, and weight savings is huge at least for me since i carry so much bs around
honestly a lot going for the neo 2

[quaint helm]

lumcargo wants 5080
